Inside the room, Feng Jinghan, as one of the few VIP customers, naturally didn't need to compete with the others.
He looked at the fine wine brought by his employees, poured himself a glass, and was somewhat surprised after tasting it.
He then gave a wry smile. These were just ordinary things to the shopkeeper, things that even he, a prince, could not obtain.
Hu Jiu is right. How can someone as ordinary as me earn a living?
Feng Jinghan looked out the window and downed the wine in her hand in one gulp.
Hu Jiu never expected that with just one drink, his biggest rival in love would surrender.
Feng Jinghan's heartache was unknown to An Ge. At this moment, she found Rong Zhuo, who was directing the land reclamation, and took out the reward seeds, saying, "Uncle Rong, you were here all along?"
When Rongzhuo saw Ange, he was taken aback at first, and asked uncertainly, "Manager, your aura..."
"Um?"
“I can’t quite put my finger on it, but it feels even more intimate than before, like…” Rong Zhuo thought for a moment and found a suitable word, “a natural feeling.”
An Ge understood; it turned out that the passive skill "Nature's Favorite" had been triggered.
She scratched her head, unsure how to explain, "Perhaps it's because I've gained a natural power?"
“That’s right. My true form is a demonic plant, which makes me more sensitive to the aura of nature than a demonic beast. Shopkeeper, this fortuitous encounter is truly remarkable.” Rong Zhuo stroked his beard, quite satisfied with An Ge’s skill.
"By the way, store manager, what did you want to see me about?"
An Ge took out the reward seed and asked, "Can you help me see if there's anything special about this seed?"
Rongzhuo examined the seeds for a while and then handed them back to Ange.
"I can't see anything specific either. However, this seed exudes an extremely powerful force."
"Why don't we try planting some?"
"Let's put it away for now. I don't think it will grow well in ordinary soil."
"Sigh, that's all we can do." She had thought that since they were both plants, Rongzhuo might be able to see something.
Rong Zhuo smiled as he saw An Ge's face scrunched up. "Why worry, shop manager? This is a good thing. We can plant it again when the opportunity arises."
Ange nodded and put the seeds away.
"By the way, manager, I have something to discuss with you." Rong Zhuo pointed to the vast farmland and said, "Now that a lot of farmland has been developed, the output can basically meet the needs of the inn. Why not contract out the extra farmland to the villagers?"
"Then can I become a landowner?" An Ge's eyes lit up, but then she suddenly remembered something and said to Rong Zhuo with a long face, "We've reclaimed so much wasteland, but it seems we haven't gotten permission from the landowners..."
“Uh…” Rong Zhuo paused in stroking his beard.
An Ge tapped her head. "I actually forgot something so important." Da Jinku didn't say anything, but that was because he was good-natured, not because she could do whatever she wanted on his turf.
Immediately, An Ge returned to the inn and knocked on Feng Jinghan's door.
Feng Jinghan opened the door and saw An Ge, her eyes filled with joy.
"You were looking for me?"
An Ge said somewhat guiltily, "Well, I'm running an inn and clearing land, so I've taken up your space without even discussing it with you. I'm really sorry."
Feng Jinghan was disappointed for a moment, but quickly cheered up. "This area around Cangshan was originally barren land. You've made it more prosperous. I should be grateful to you. Why would I mind?"
"Can I contract out the land to the villagers? Do I need to register it with the government?"
"Of course not. If you're worried, I can write you a document." For some reason, seeing An Ge like this made Feng Jinghan want to laugh.
"Great, Big Treasury, you're so loyal."
"A big, cash vault?" So that's how the store manager perceived her? Feng Jinghan was both amused and exasperated.
"Uh, nickname, nickname!" An Ge explained somewhat awkwardly.
“Well then, I can’t keep letting you suffer losses. I’ll trade you something.” With that, An Ge took out high-yield seeds and a cement formula. “These two packets are sweet potato and rice seeds, and this is the cement formula. I’m sure you need them.”
An Ge gave a brief description of several items that she had been looking for a suitable opportunity to give to Feng Jinghan, and now was the perfect time.
“I’m not too sure about your planting skills, but I estimate that you can produce three to four thousand catties of sweet potatoes per mu, and rice should yield seven or eight hundred catties if the soil is fertile.”
When Feng Jinghan heard An Ge's words, her eyes widened in surprise.
Is he dreaming? You have to understand, even the best farmland can only produce three or four hundred catties per mu these days, let alone the terrifying number of three or four thousand catties.
If anyone else had said this, Feng Jinghan would definitely not have believed it, but it was An Ge who said it.
Feng Jinghan swallowed hard, his voice trembling slightly. "Then I won't stand on ceremony. On behalf of the people of Daye, I thank the shopkeeper." He knew what these things represented to the Daye Kingdom, so naturally he wouldn't refuse.
An Ge waved her hand dismissively and said playfully, "If His Highness Prince Duan were to develop a method for repairing roads with cement, could you consider repairing the path in front of the inn, provided there are sufficient funds and personnel?"
Feng Jinghan covered his hand and smiled, "Then I need to hurry up and study it. I'm still counting on the inn to bring economic benefits to Huaixi City." Having stayed at the inn for a long time, he had also learned some new words.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh.
Feng Jinghan's previously suppressed feelings gradually eased.
The store manager is like the sun in the sky, unreachable. Although he can't reach him, it's enough for him to feel the warmth.
That's good too!
