Chapter 26: Can my brother’s leg be healed?



After changing her clothes and stepping out of the hotel, she noticed a large fruit stand not far away.

The stalls were filled with all kinds of fresh fruits.

Each fruit was packed in a big bag and neatly placed on the stall.

The stall was run by a black man who looked anxious and even had despair in his eyes.

For some reason, the despair and sadness in Ah Shui's eyes appeared before her eyes.

Thinking of this, she involuntarily walked closer.

"How much do you think these oranges cost?"

Li Rongrong looked at the big bag of oranges in the black boss's hand in disbelief and asked.

When the black boss saw someone coming to ask questions, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

He noticed that Li Rongrong spoke Chinese, so he explained in broken Chinese: "One dollar for twenty pounds."

...

...

One dollar for twenty pounds, converted into Mao Zedong's money, is equivalent to about six dollars for twenty kilograms of oranges.

In other words, a pound of citrus fruits costs three cents.

“Why is it so cheap?”

Finally, she understood after the boss's explanation.

It turned out that someone in the boss's family was seriously ill and urgently needed money to pay for the expensive medical expenses.

Therefore, he had to sell the citrus fruits in his orchard to others at extremely low prices.

"Okay, I'll take all these oranges!" Li Rongrong said without hesitation, "But I heard you have an orchard, right? Can you take me there to visit?"

Hearing this, the boss showed a hint of surprise on his face, but at the same time, he also revealed some doubt and disbelief.

He stared at Li Rongrong with wide eyes and stammered, "Boss, are you really going to buy it?"

"Yes, let me go and take a look first. If everything goes well, I might consider buying it." Li Rongrong replied with a smile.

So the boss happily took Li Rongrong to the orchard.

Of course, to ensure her own safety, Li Rongrong did not go alone.

She specially hired several experienced and reputable bodyguards to accompany her.

After all, Li Rongrong is in a foreign country where she is unfamiliar with the place and faces many potential risks. She must always be vigilant to prevent any unexpected events.

Especially when it comes to major transactions, you should not take it lightly.

"Ms. Li, what do you think of these fruits?" the boss said in the broken Chinese he had just learned.

Li Rongrong observed the fruits carefully. They were bright in color and plump in size.

The orchard is very well maintained and the trees are laden with ripe fruits.

"How many kilograms of fruit do you have here?"

The boss quickly replied, "We still have about 10,000 kilograms of fruit." He then added, "If you want to buy all of it, we can give you another discount."

Li Rongrong thought about it and realized that the boss was in a hurry to sell it, so the price was very cheap.

"Okay, then I'll buy all these fruits. However, I need to pay a deposit first. I'll pay the rest after the fruits are delivered."

After hearing this, the boss immediately agreed and took Li Rongrong to a nearby bank.

The deposit was transferred to the boss's account.

After the transaction was completed, Li Rongrong told her boss the location of the warehouse she had just rented and asked him to deliver all the fruits directly there.

The orchard owner worked very quickly, as if he was afraid that he would not be able to sell the fruits. In just half a day, the fruits were picked and sent to the warehouse.

Li Rongrong took a rough look and found that the fruits and tangerines sent by the boss weighed about 20,000 kilograms.

After she roughly counted them, she teleported directly over.

On the Qin side, the people who were still worshiping received fruits falling from the sky after they finished burning incense.

"This! This is a blessing from the immortals!"

Prince Fusu waved his hand and said directly that whoever saw it would have a share.

Everyone present was given fruits given by the immortal.

The only common fruits in Daqin are pears and peaches...

Many people were at a loss as to what to do when they saw the fruits they were given.

The Qin people who saw grapes for the first time were a little skeptical about the color of the grapes. “Can you eat grapes that are so black?”

Generally, these black fruits are used for dyeing and are not eaten.

"Just eat it. Anything sent by the immortals must be good!" the person next to him laughed.

"Yes, that's the immortal who saved our lives!"

The Qin people had never seen so many strange fruits.

Seeing that they didn't know how to eat them, Li Rongrong quickly drew some instructions for using the fruits and sent them over.

Those who ate the lychees looked happy, "So sweet... like candy!"

"It's worth dying to eat such delicious food!"

You know, in Daqin sugar is a luxury product, and some people may never have eaten it in their entire life.

"Pah, pah, pah, what unlucky words are you talking about! How can I die when there is an immortal among us?"

"Yeah, immortals are omnipotent... Hey, mine is so sweet too."

The person next to him was holding bright red bayberries in his hand, "Really? Why do mine seem a little sour…"

A woman who was good at weaving said, looking at her fingers dyed blue by blueberries, "Mine are also very sweet, and they can be dyed..."

For a moment they were all immersed in the joy of sharing the taste.

Looking at this harmonious scene, Prince Fusu was moved.

Fortunately, there are immortals, otherwise he would not dare to imagine what the border looks like.

However, there are still many people who did not participate in the discussion.

Instead, he secretly hid the fruit he got in his arms.

Their families are waiting for them at home.

A few people who were quick enough had already returned home with the fruits they were given, and Mo Yuan was one of them.

Mo Yuan hurried back home and took out the things in his arms.

I saw that he was holding a yellow fruit the size of a jar in his arms.

"Ah Sheng, look what father brought back."

The boy named "Asheng" came over in his wheelchair and looked at the fruit on the table curiously, "Father, what is this?"

Mo Yuan said excitedly: "I went to the Immortal Temple today to inquire about the situation. Come and try the fruit given by the immortal..."

Mo Sheng was also very excited, but he was troubled by the fruit in front of him, "Father, but...how do I eat this fruit?"

Mo Yuan scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "This... Father came back too quickly, and I didn't have time to listen. You wait at home, I will go and ask again."

"Brother, I just seemed to hear the sound of father coming back." A little girl with a white cloth wrapped around her eyes groped her way out of the house.

Ah Sheng did not blame the little girl for running around, but instead pushed his wheelchair closer to her to prevent her from falling.

"Yes, Father brought some fruits given by the immortals."

Hearing him say that, the little girl instantly became excited, "Really? Then will brother's leg get better after eating the fairy fruit?"

"Well, don't worry, sister. The immortal will definitely find a way."

Mo Sheng said silently in his heart: The immortal must have a way to cure your eyes.

The brother and sister were both thinking about each other, at this time Mo Yuan hurried back.

"I have already inquired about it. This magical fruit is called pomelo. You can eat it by peeling off the skin."
