Chapter 13 Someone Came to Provoke Us



A fruit tree is laden with fruit.

Jiang Si picked the fruit and put it into the bag; there were exactly 50, no more and no less.

She then destroyed the fruit tree to ashes, left the toilet, and returned to the natural food store.

Xia Pu paced back and forth, his heart pounding with anxiety. He was unsure what kind of fruit she would bring out, and he was also afraid that his hopes would be dashed and that she was just playing him.

When Jiang Si came into his view, he quickly went to greet her, his voice tinged with excitement: "You brought it?"

Jiang Si shook the bag: "Here it is, let's go inside and talk."

The bag looked quite heavy.

Xia Pu hurriedly led her into the shop, asking, "May I ask how you should address me, Miss?"

Jiang Si walked into his shop and handed him a bag of fruit: "Just call me A Jiang, take a look first."

“Okay, Miss A-Jiang.” Xia Pu took the bag, and before she even opened it, a sweet and sour fruity aroma wafted out.

When he opened the bag and looked down, he saw that the bright yellow fruits, with green leaves, were all round and about the size of a fist.

Jiang Si casually picked one out, broke it open with his hand, and the juice of the fruit splashed out, filling the entire store with a sweet and sour fruity aroma. "Try it, and if you're satisfied, we can talk about the price."

Xia Pu swallowed hard, carefully placed the bag aside, took the fruit from Jiang Si with both hands, took a bite, and the unique sweet and sour taste exploded in his mouth.

Juice flowed out, and Xia Pu quickly sucked it in and swallowed it. He felt a warm current spread to his limbs and bones, which felt incredibly comfortable.

Jiang Si also took a bite, raised an eyebrow, and thought, "The taste of the tangerine from 3,000 years ago is really good. With the addition of her spiritual energy, it's even more juicy and sweet and sour."

This was the first time Xia Pu had ever eaten such good fruit. He finished it in a few bites, even eating the slightly astringent peel.

He didn't let any of the juice on his hands go to waste, licking it all clean.

Jiang Si's mouth twitched as she watched. Everything was great in the interstellar era, except for the scarcity of naturally grown food.

Only the wealthy can afford to eat in poverty; some people have never eaten naturally grown food in their entire lives and rely solely on nutrient solutions and pastes to survive.

"How much do you want to sell it for, Miss Jiang?" Xia Pu asked hesitantly, her heart pounding. She wondered if she could afford the bag of fruit even if she took out all her cash.

Jiang Si, selling fruit for the first time, handed the decision-making power over to Xia Pu: "Boss, you name a price, and if it's reasonable, I'll sell it."

Xia Pu calmed his wildly beating heart. "5000, 5000 coins each, is that okay?" He originally wanted to offer a higher price, but the main problem was that he didn't have that much money. If the other party wanted a higher price, he would have to borrow money or mortgage the shop.

Jiang Si tilted her head and thought for a moment.

Xia Pu thought she thought the price was too low, so he quickly said, "The price is negotiable. If you think it's too low..."

"Deal." Jiang Si interrupted him before he could finish speaking, saying, "There are 49 fruits in the bag. Just settle the bill for me at 245,000 star coins."

Xia Pu didn't even bother to count the fruit in the bag, fearing she might change her mind. He quickly scanned her personal terminal and transferred 250,000 star coins to her.

After all, he had just eaten half of it, and besides, he wanted to have a long-term business relationship with her, so he paid an extra 5,000 in the hope of leaving a good impression on her.

Hearing the notification that the payment had been received, Jiang Si was delighted: "Thank you, boss, goodbye."

Xia Pu quickly called out, "This is my personal computer number. If this fruit is ripe in your hometown, or if there are other fruits, please give me priority."

"I'll definitely offer you a price higher than the market rate. Buying from you won't make you lose out."

When Jiang Si handed over the decision-making power to him, she was testing him. Now that he has taken the initiative to exchange his personal computer number, she took the opportunity to scan his personal computer number.

“Okay, but please keep it a secret. Don’t tell anyone that I brought this fruit.” Jiang Si glanced at his personal terminal and instructed, “When the fruit in my hometown is ripe, or if there are any new varieties, I will contact you first.”

"Okay, okay, I definitely won't tell anyone," Xia Pu assured her. Even if she didn't tell him, he wouldn't tell anyone.

This fruit is not available on the market. He could imagine that these 49 fruits would cause a sensation.

Having received his assurance, Jiang Si left the natural food store, bought several outfits, and changed out of the white dress she was wearing.

I bought another smallest cubic space button, and the 250,000 star coins I received instantly reduced to only 50,000.

However, they had the money to shoot down flying machines.

She hailed a flying vehicle as soon as she left the mall.

Once aboard the aircraft, she didn't see Agares leading people into the mall, heading straight for Xia Pu's natural food store.

Xia Pu has over 100,000 followers and customers on Xingwang.

After seeing off the ginger slices and closing the shop door, I took a fruit and filmed it from every angle, then posted the video and photos on the StarNet.

The bright yellow fruits, round and fist-sized, still with green leaves, immediately attracted the attention of hundreds of thousands of fans and customers when posted on the account, coupled with the interstellar era's shared sense of touch and smell.

His fans and customers clicked on the touch and smell sharing feature, and instantly they were greeted by a sweet and sour fruity aroma that they had never smelled before. Before they even tasted it, they were already swallowing their saliva without realizing it.

So they all asked.

"What kind of fruit is this?"

How much does it cost?

"Don't say anything, just send the fruit and ship it out."

Meanwhile, his videos and photos went viral and became trending topics.

Agares ordered the search for Ginger.

Chu Xi originally wanted to ask the healers she knew on the StarNet if any plant-based healers had appeared recently, but then she saw the video posted by Xia Pu.

He clicked share, and the sweet and sour fruity aroma filled the air. Without thinking, he reported it to Agares.

Just as Xia Pu was pondering how to sell a fruit for 10,000 star coins, there was a knock on the shop door. He put down his personal terminal, quickly opened the door, and saw the person standing at the door. His expression changed drastically, and he blurted out respectfully, "Your Highness Agares."

A 1000-yard aircraft.

An hour later, we arrived at the gate of the Fifth Military Academy.

Military academies in the interstellar era cultivate talents from all walks of life.

Therefore, the military academy was built to be exceptionally large, with particularly wide gates.

Not only do tuition fees burn through your pocket, but even buying materials can leave you penniless.

However, even if you don't go to the battlefield after graduating from a military academy in 5 years, you can easily find a job with a good salary. Many ordinary families will do anything to get into a military academy.

With only two days left before school starts, quite a few people have already arrived.

Most of the other students were sent here by their parents.

Jiang Si was alone. She had just stepped through the gate when someone shoved her aside, pointed at her, and shouted, "This is the Fifth Military Academy, not a place for someone trying to rob a natural food store. You shouldn't be here. Get out of here, or you'll regret it!"
