Chapter 53 The Spirit Rice Ripens Again
The team leader who built the website and the lawyer arrived in Ling An City the following day.
Li Chang'an invited them to Xuanling Immortal Mountain to discuss cooperation in his study.
While the team leader and lawyer were amazed by the scenery of Xuanling Immortal Mountain, Li Chang'an was also amazed by the team's name.
"Qishun Studio? Is that Qishun from the Universal Starry Sky Company?"
Huanyu Xingqiong Company is the company of Mo Chenji, the richest man in Cangxuan Realm. Its business scope covers all aspects of people's lives. It started with social networking platforms. Qishun is a studio under the company. They developed WeDove and several other popular mobile games.
Li Chang'an opened his mouth, but for a moment he didn't know what to say, so he awkwardly turned his head to look at Tianxuan.
No way, Star Lord, did you find such a top-notch team to develop a website for me to sell vegetables?!
Tianxuan's smile remained unchanged.
Is there a problem?
Li Chang'an silently withdrew his gaze.
"Alright, no problem. With such a top-notch team developing and maintaining the website, he feels more at ease."
Although the corresponding costs are quite high... he earns a lot from selling vegetables now, so he can afford it completely.
Li Chang'an sighed, finished reading the contract in his hand, and finally signed his name.
"Then I'll leave the rest to you."
The person in charge looked away and smiled: "We get paid to do things, it's a win-win situation, there's no question of trouble or not."
After both parties signed the contract, Li Chang'an invited the person in charge and the lawyer to have dinner together.
After a brief discussion, the two happily agreed and even spent some time exploring the sacred mountain.
Before leaving, the person in charge took a deep breath and exclaimed, "After coming to this sacred mountain, I feel the pressure of long-term work disappear all at once, and my body feels much lighter."
The lawyer nodded in agreement, saying, "It's probably because the overall atmosphere of the sacred mountain is very tranquil. Being there calms the mind and makes one less restless."
The person in charge looked at Li Chang'an beside him, smiled and asked, "Mr. Li, is it possible to open it up for tourism in the future? So that we can come here occasionally for a vacation and recharge."
Li Chang'an stroked his chin, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "I'll think about it."
The person in charge and the lawyer exchanged a glance, and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
If they're willing to consider it, then there's hope.

Before harvesting this batch of planted Chinese cabbage, cabbage, and cauliflower, Li Chang'an peeled off the outer leaves to use as compost.
He also kept one acre of sweet potatoes and pumpkins to feed the pigs, kept some sweet potato vines, and used the rest for compost.
The compost was piled directly in the pond, and the fungi played a particularly important role in the composting process.
Their spiritual power enables these vegetables to ferment and decompose quickly. A large amount of fertilizer that would normally take a year to fully ferment can be done in about ten days with their help.
The poor-quality soil at the bottom of the pond has absorbed nutrients, and the silt layer is basically sufficient, so it's time to start planting lotus roots.
Li Chang'an bought the best-tasting and best-textured crisp and starchy lotus root varieties on the market and spent two days planting them with the mushroom experts.
A shallow amount of water was drawn into the pond, covering the silt by five or six centimeters.
After the lotus roots were planted, the spirit rice also ripened.
One hundred acres of land account for one-sixth of the currently developed area. The golden rice stalks droop and radiate colorful light.
Li Chang'an stood at his doorstep and looked out, squinting as he was blinded by the light.
"This scale is..." It's a bit too exaggerated.
If too much of the spirit rice is planted in the future, what a disaster that will be!
Li Chang'an sighed a few times, then flew into the rice paddy and used the mountain god's deer antlers to harvest the sacred rice.
The mountain god's antlers can only harvest the rice ears; the subsequent hulling and drying work will require Li Chang'an and the mushroom spirits to use their spiritual power to solve.
After a busy day, we finished collecting everything in the afternoon.
One hundred acres of spiritual rice, blessed by the mountain god's deer antlers, produced two hundred thousand catties of spiritual rice.
Li Chang'an immediately notified Xie Kuling and Yang Hao, the owner of Xiaoping'an Supermarket. A total of 30,000 jin were supplied to Qingfengpai, Xiaoping'an Supermarket, and those kept for himself. The remaining 170,000 jin were put on the Xianshan Farm website for sale. If each person was limited to 10 jin, only 17,000 people could buy them.
So, when you calculate it that way, the amount of spirit rice planted isn't actually that much.
That evening, Li Chang'an sent out notifications on WeDog and Music Notes respectively.
[170,000 catties of Lingmi will be available tomorrow at 10:00 AM, priced at 98 yuan per catty, with a limit of 10 catties per person.]
As soon as the announcement was sent out, fans flocked to leave comments.
[This number... looks like tomorrow will be a tough battle.]
[I've already set several alarms; I'm getting the whole family involved in grabbing it!]
[I'm hoping to successfully snag ten kilograms tomorrow; I've been curious about the taste of this sacred rice for a long time!]
[98 yuan per jin, lower than the price at Xiaoping'an Supermarket.]
Supermarkets, after all, price their products higher than the original price; they need to make a profit.
Xiaoping'an Supermarket is incredibly lucky; it's currently the only supermarket that can source its goods from Xianshan Farm.
Yang Hao and his wife Deng Yan also followed Li Chang'an.
The couple wholeheartedly agreed with the claim that Xiaoping'an Supermarket had a stroke of good luck.
Indeed, with the vegetables from Xianshan Farm, the customer traffic at Xiaoping'an Supermarket has increased several times over recently, and other products have also sold very well.
His initial idea was to help Li Chang'an promote the Xianshan Farm brand, but now it's Xianshan Farm that's helping them promote the Xiaoping'an Supermarket brand.
The feeling of being carried away is so exhilarating!
Deng Yan was also extremely fortunate that her mother had the foresight to buy a large cabbage on the very first day Li Chang'an started selling vegetables, which made them realize from the beginning how good Li Chang'an's vegetables were and allowed them to seize the opportunity to cooperate.
She sighed and nudged Yang Hao next to her with her elbow: "Honey, have you seen what the netizens are saying?"
“Our family has really gotten a great deal. You know why Mr. Li chose our supermarket. You must keep it up and not miss out on this incredible fortune.”
If the environment at Xiaoping'an Supermarket deteriorates and the vegetables spoil, the partnership will be over.
Yang Hao nodded repeatedly: "I understand. I'll give all the employees a raise tomorrow so they'll be more attentive."
"Oh right, let's also send Mr. Li some milk and other gifts, and give Mom a big red envelope too!"
Deng Yan was finally relieved.
...
The next day, Li Chang'an started a live broadcast early in the morning.
This time, he's only selling spirit rice, so there's no need to spend much time introducing it in the live stream; he'll just live stream himself farming.
At 9:50, he returned to the camera to remind viewers that Lingmi would be available at 10:00.
At 10 o'clock sharp, just a few seconds later, viewers in the live stream began to lament that they hadn't managed to snag a deal.
Now, he gets hundreds of thousands of viewers for each of his live streams, but there's only enough Lingmi to sell to 17,000 people, meaning hundreds of thousands of people are destined to miss out.
Li Chang'an could only reassure everyone: "The premium vegetables will be available again in half a month, so please don't worry."
"We will expand the planting scale in the future and plant more."
He calmed them down for a while before the wailing gradually subsided.
Li Chang'an smiled with relief and was about to return to the foot of the mountain to continue his work when he caught a glimpse of a WeChat message from Xie Xuan.
[Li Chang'an, someone is looking for you. They can't get into Xuanling Immortal Mountain, and they're waiting for you in the Qingfeng Sect's reception room.]
Li Chang'an typed a reply with confusion: 【Looking for me? Who is it?】
Xie Xuan: [A woman said she was your Aunt Rong.]
Aunt Rong...
Li Chang'an was stunned.
