Chapter 195 Bad Reviews
After promising to provide seedlings and seeds to the nearby villagers, Ye Zhen sent away the other village heads. Only the village head of Shanbei Village stayed behind and seemed to have something to say.
"Will this not affect the opening of your seed company?" The village chief was a little worried. After all, he knew that Ye Zhen was going to start a company. Just now, the number of seedlings requested by other villages was not small.
When the person first came to the door, the village chief had no other thoughts and just brought the person here. Who knew that the other party's demand was so great? He thought he was just buying some for a few villagers.
Ye Zhen was wondering what the village chief was going to say, but he smiled and shook his head:
"It's okay. I have a lot of seedlings left. This is just advertising for my company."
"From now on, anyone who needs seedlings can come and buy them from me!"
The village chief thought so too. After all, good seeds would be easy to sell.
After seeing off the village chief, Ye Zhen went to the back mountain as usual to transplant spiritual fruit trees. More and more fruit trees were adapting to spiritual energy, and Ye Zhen had already transplanted a small piece of land.
Some small saplings sprouting from under the trees were dug out and moved into the Nawu Talisman. The fruit trees grown in these spiritual lands had better properties than those grown outside. In addition, Ye Zhen's martial arts were special, so many of them mutated.
Casting an invisibility spell on himself, Ye Zhen flew into the valley.
In winter, the place is still green, with the fields covered in green. Not only is there no sign of withering, but it is full of green.
Except for the village cadres and family members, no one else knows about Ye Zhen Baoshan. Recently, her skills have improved rapidly and her cultivation has reached a new level.
This Dan Mansion has abundant spiritual energy, and spells can be cast faster using spiritual power. Ye Zhen was too lazy to ask people to climb mountains and wade through water to help her clear the mountain.
He flew directly into the air, practicing some magic spells to clear all the weeds below.
The older the trees, flowers and plants are, the more vigorous they are. Ye Zhen avoided these old plants and only focused on clearing out the lush weeds.
Ye Zhen drained away the endless vitality. Although these weeds had little vitality, they were everywhere in the mountains and fields. Little by little, they accumulated into a lot. The vitality flowed into the spiritual roots through the body and was filtered and absorbed bit by bit.
This is also the beauty of Ye Zhen's Spirit Planting Technique. Unfortunately, this technique has many limitations. The more vitality you absorb, the more you need to give back. It is okay here because there are only ordinary plants, but in the world of immortal cultivation, there is spiritual energy everywhere, and there are plants that are contaminated with spiritual energy everywhere. The vitality that Ye Zhen absorbs, the spiritual energy he gives back is simply returned in multiples.
Fortunately, there are only ordinary plants underneath, which are a drop in the bucket compared to the world of immortal cultivation.
After a while, the hill was tidied up.
Ye Zhen took out the object-collecting talisman and took out various plant seeds from it. He silently recited the magic formula, and a flash of spiritual light appeared. The plant seeds were wrapped in balls of spiritual light.
Ye Zhen stood in the air and scattered the seeds around. All kinds of seeds went to the appropriate places as if they had a purpose and grew in the soil.
He continued to chant the incantation and performed the rain-nourishing technique. The spiritual energy turned into rain, which dripped down and moistened the trees, flowers and plants. The seeds sprouted, and the grass and trees grew green. Some of the more spiritual flowers and trees even gave off spiritual light, and their branches and leaves swayed as if cheering.
After planting the crops, Ye Zhen thought it was almost done and flew to the edge of the hill.
This mountain is not high, but it is quite steep. One side is connected to other large mountain ranges, another side leads to Shanbei Village, and another side is a high steep cliff.
The cliff face is vertical, at an angle of almost ninety degrees. Looking down, there is a small forest below, and under the forest is a rushing river with splashing water and surging waves!
There were protruding rocks on the cliff and small trees growing on the slope. Ye Zhen took out a piece of vine and jumped to a large protruding rock below.
The place is neither high nor low, the cliff is relatively flat, there are unknown weeds on the soil and gravel, and there is a bird's nest on the side.
The bird's nest was empty, but Ye Zhen ignored it and found a place with soil to plant the vines.
This vine is the kiwifruit cultivated by Ye Zhen, and there are already cultivated samples in the back mountain. The fruit is as big as an adult fist, with a smooth and hairless surface, small seeds and lots of flesh inside. The skin is thin and the flesh is emerald green. It can be eaten directly when ripe without peeling, which is really good news for kiwi lovers.
In addition, this kiwi tree has strong climbing ability, is not picky about water and soil, and has very deep roots, which helps protect the mountain soil. Apart from requiring a lot of sunlight to grow, it does not require any other care at all, making it a fruit farmer's dream vine.
After planting the fruit vines, Ye Zhen performed the magic as usual. With the irrigation of spiritual energy, the vines grew taller and taller, and thicker and thicker. They extended, climbed and expanded little by little, and soon occupied the entire stone wall.
The entire cliff is lush and green, with luxuriant branches and leaves, and the leaves seem to block out the sun.
Ye Zhen continued to output spiritual energy to stimulate the growth of the kiwi fruit. The main vine of the kiwi fruit had become as thick as a calf. Soon, the brown branched vines were full of fruits.
The whole mountain belongs to her now. Ye Zhen doesn't want to leave any empty space. She has planted plants in every corner. She has long been dissatisfied with this big cliff, as it wastes a lot of space.
It just so happened that she planted some vine-like fruit trees, and the fruits that grew on them were difficult for others to pick, but for her it was a piece of cake!
Ye Zhen collected all the fruits, then pulled the vines to urge them to grow. He trimmed the vines and put them all into the storage talisman. He did not stop until the whole vine was cut into a scabby skin.
"This should be enough, right?" Ye Zhen muttered to himself.
After figuring that the vines in the talisman were enough for everyone to plant, Ye Zhen continued to fly towards the valley and collected some more seeds in the valley. After harvesting other fruit trees that had been planted with branches and vines, Ye Zhen returned home feeling satisfied.
After returning home, Ye Zhen sorted out all the seeds and divided them into medicinal herbs, fruits, grains and vegetables, as well as other ornamental and maintenance categories.
Stacks of object-storing talismans were placed on the table, and little brother Ye was peeking outside.
"Sister, what are you doing?"
"I didn't do anything." Ye Zhen said casually.
Little brother Ye came in with a grin and took a look at the paper in his sister's hand, "Sister, are you still playing origami? The words on this paper are written so well!" Although he couldn't understand it!
"Sister, just look at this paper. I know it's special. It looks golden and shiny."
Younger brother Ye tried to find a topic to talk about, but his sister ignored him.
Younger Brother Ye was so worried that he scratched his head and cheeks. He only had so many good things to say, and he silently cursed himself for being so tongue-tied.
Ye Zhen was annoyed by his chattering in his ear, so he simply finished dividing the food and squinted his eyes: "Tell me! What are you hiding from me?"
This Er Gouzi didn't do anything wrong, did he? She stared at Ye Xiaodi suspiciously, narrowing her eyes: "You didn't do anything bad, did you?"
Ye Xiaodi cried out that he was wronged, and almost swore to the heavens: "No, absolutely not, am I that kind of person?"
Ye Zhen snorted: "That's good."
Little Brother Ye laughed, looking ready to risk everything: "Sister! My dear sister, my fans want to see our giant durian and are willing to pay a high price for it. Can you give me one so they can see it?"
"No!" Ye Zhen refused.
What a joke! Can you take that durian out? A durian so big that even one person can’t carry it, if you take it out to sell, the shipping cost will be so high!
"Sister, please, I've already boasted to my fans that there is such a big durian, but they didn't believe me. I just want to prove it." Brother Ye pulled at Ye Zhen's clothes.
"Sister, look at how badly they said that. They even said we were liars and that durians this big can't be grown in China."
"Some people also said that we were giving good reviews, but they are liars. You can see that the fruits were sprayed with pesticides. Just look at how infuriating it is!"
Brother Ye opened the store backstage and saw that since Ye’s fruits and vegetables were selling well, they were all rated five-star. There were also many repeat customers who bought again and again, and their comments were full of praise.
Amid so many positive reviews, some of the negative comments stand out.
"Are there so many people who are spoofing reviews now? Don't you feel guilty about giving good reviews?"
"The store has only been open for half a year and has so many sales. Do you believe there are such good fruits? They are big and sweet. How many red envelopes did you receive from the merchants?"
"Is it because of the cashback of one or two yuan that you are giving good reviews? Anyway, I don't believe there are such perfect fruits. Could it be that they are ripened by spraying pesticides?"
"Don't believe it, look at the pomegranates I bought from this store, they are small and have lots of seeds, they are not the seedless pomegranates that the merchants claim they are!"
He then showed a picture that he had found from somewhere. In the picture, the pomegranate had yellow skin and was not very big. When peeled, the pomegranate was actually white and pink, which was completely different from the pomegranates of the Ye family.
This is not Ye Zhen’s family’s fruit at all.
The family shop has always been managed by Grandma Ye and Little Brother Ye. Little Brother Ye is at school, and the quality of the product has been well-known. Whenever there is an order, Grandma Ye just needs to put the new products on the shelves and pack the fruits, and the courier will naturally come to pick them up.
Grandma Ye sometimes reads these comments and has confidence in her own fruits. Plus, she provides compensation and free shipping for damaged fruits, so there is no other problem at all.
I didn't expect that this time when I got home and read the comments, I would be so angry. Everything said here is slander!
He watched his own pomegranates grow on the tree. They were big and red. Every one looked like a red lantern. Each one weighed more than one kilogram, which was totally different from the ten that weighed five kilograms as mentioned in the comments!!
In their house, there are only three or four of five kilograms!
Ye Zhen continued to look at the comments below. A customer kindly replied to the comment, but he got angry and started arguing over the comment.
Brother Ye also commented below, "You are just a young man, how can you be his opponent?"
He was immediately provoked by the other party and was so incited that he used something to prove it.
There are other customers and fans waiting to watch the show. Although those who have bought fruits from Ye Zhen’s shop all say good things about him, it has affected the reputation of the store.
In particular, there are fans talking about the Ye family’s Douyin account, which is full of videos to prove it.
Now the haters have a new trick. They directly say that the picture is photoshopped and lead everyone to other places to confuse the audience.
This time, there were quite a few letters, all asking for proof, and some even wanted refunds and returns.
As we all know, the loss from returns of fruits and vegetables is huge. Even the fruits from Ye Zhen's family are the same. They will go bad eventually.
How could Brother Ye possibly win over the malicious intent directed at him?
The other side was shouting at him, and Brother Ye was forced to take out the fruits in his home as proof.
Ye Zhen: “…”
She had seen many real fights and real swords, but this was the first time she had been provoked and slandered by such words.
