"Oh, right, Ah Chen--"
Uncle Dong also told Ah Chen that in May, a group of criminals tried to sneak over from the back mountain.
But they all became food for the insects.
"I've heard about these things."
Ah Chen's gaze swept over the Miao people, and he said, "Our Miao people's sacred fruit is becoming more and more famous, and there will definitely be many people who covet it."
"Therefore, the defense and management of the orchards need to be even stricter!"
"Also, did you all see the order that Amo brought back before?"
Of course I watched it!
Not only that, the two great orchards of Starry Sky and Starry Night have been losing sleep for a while because of this.
The sacred fruit has come into view at the very top and is used to receive foreign guests; what a joyous thing this is!
This is an unparalleled honor for the entire Miao region!
And all of this was brought about by Ah Chen.
Ah Chen originally intended to give them away for free, since he didn't need many of the top-grade Seven-Colored Sacred Fruit and Star Candy.
30,000 of each.
Ah Chen didn't care about a million or two.
But the person in charge of procurement dared not disobey the orders from above.
In addition, Old Man Ji and Old Man Chi said some things to him over the phone.
General Jing from Yanjing also subtly gave Achen some hints.
Ah Chen reluctantly agreed to charge.
But it's not the wholesale price; it's even lower.
The price is 28 yuan each, which is lower than the wholesale price of 36 yuan for the top-grade sacred fruit.
The key is--
Ah Chen came back this time to get a special batch of sacred fruits for special supply.
Not only must its taste and value be better than the finest sacred fruit, but the image hidden on the sacred fruit's skin, which requires special light to display, must also be created separately.
As for how it will change, Ah Chen and Elder Jing have already decided on it after discussing it.
And when Amo came in July, Achen gave her the secret recipe.
…
“Ah Chen, come and see. We’ve been carefully watching these sacred fruits, but it’s strange that the same fruits are still not ripe.”
Uncle Adong led Achen to the small patch of fruit trees that had previously been considered the best.
indeed--
Looking around, the large mangoes hanging on the trees are indeed not fully ripe yet.
But Ah Chen still cut one off, took a bite, and then...
"How's it going, Ah Chen?"
The two chieftains hurriedly asked.
You should know that the sacred fruit here is now the most important thing in the entire orchard.
There are dedicated Miao men and women in charge.
No one else is allowed to approach.
Looking at everyone's expectant expressions, Ah Chen said, "It's barely acceptable. It will probably take another month to fully mature. I will personally handle the remaining procedures, and the girls and boys in charge of this area will learn from me."
call--
"That's good, that's good."
Upon hearing Achen's words, the Miao people who were at the heart of the two major orchards finally felt relieved.
They were afraid that Ah Chen would say:
no.
This is meant to be sent to the very top floor!
The clan elder asked, "Achen, I heard that this batch of fruit isn't called Sacred Fruit, but 'Dragon Fruit.' Is that true?"
"Yeah, Ah Chen, I heard the packaging boxes are special, they don't need ours. We just need to wrap them with fruit heart grass, and someone will transport them?"
Ah Chen nodded. "That's right. This matter will be handled by Sheng Tang Jiang Ya and the people from above, and Guo Lin will cooperate."
"Don't worry, Ah Chen, we know, we'll be very careful!"
The Miao people couldn't contain their excitement.
After Ah Chen finished explaining everything, he turned around—
"Brother Chen."
Just then, Ah Yin ran in.
She glanced at the Miao people in the core of the orchard and said to Achen, "Guibei Lingnu has arrived with a guard, and they are currently outside the orchard."
Guibei Lingnu?
Everyone looked at each other, some surprised, some puzzled.
Because they all know--
Five Miao regions, one saint and four spirits!
Apart from the holy maiden in eastern Guizhou, the other four Miao regions all have spirit maidens.
Although the rank of a Spirit Maiden is slightly lower than that of a Saintess, the Spirit Maidens of the major Miao regions are equivalent to Saintessses in their respective regions.
Especially the core group of Miao people, they all know the relationship between the One Saint, the Four Spirits, and the Quasi-Miao King.
Sure enough, upon hearing that a spirit maiden had arrived, all eyes fell on Ah Chen.
Without thinking much, Ah Chen said to Ah Yin, "Let's go, let's go take a look!"
Should we go take a look?
Why are you in such a hurry?
The clan elder stared at Ah Chen's retreating figure, his face darkening.
He pulled Grandpa Tang aside and first cursed, "That bastard, he ran so fast!"
Then he whispered, "Brother Tang, if it's inconvenient for you, I'll call this little Miao boy to Black Crow Village later, and you can give him a good beating."
"Brother Mu, do you intend to disobey the Miao precepts?"
"I'm afraid the Tang family will overthink it."
"Brother Mu, you can say that to me, but if word gets out, the nine elders will be looking for you!"
Clearly, these two old Miao men knew the rule that applied only to the Miao King.
"Sigh... Mu Achen got lucky."
Grandpa Mu said that, but he was actually very happy!
However, considering the old man's thoughts, he asked again, "Now that Guibei Lingnu has arrived, where will you arrange for her to rest tonight?"
"Is this something we should be concerned with?"
"But Achen's house is on your Quedong Village's territory!"
"you--"
Grandpa Tang was furious.
He glared at the clan elder fiercely, then quickly went outside.
