The rain continued to fall in the micro-world. Chen Yang led several men into the farmland in the time acceleration zone. More than an hour later, they finally came out of the time acceleration zone.
Within the time acceleration zone, work efficiency is indeed very high; at three times the time flow rate, they can finish all their work in just over an hour.
Meanwhile, the girls indoors were not idle either; they wove more straw hats and raincoats and prepared food.
After finishing his work and feeding Chen Liu his medicine, Chen Yang returned to his little wooden house to check on the Emperor.
The European Emperor also entered the micro-realm to recuperate. After taking the medicine, it had improved somewhat and was resting in the room.
After feeding the European Emperor some food, Chen felt sleepy and went to bed for a nap.
But just as he was drifting off to sleep, he felt someone slip into his bed.
Chen Yang was startled and opened his eyes to find that it was Li Su'er.
"Did I wake you up?" Li Su'er said with a smile.
"I didn't fall asleep either, how did you get here?"
“My little Yangyang is tired, so I came back to comfort him,” Li Su’er said.
Chen Yang smiled, said nothing, put his arm around Li Su'er, and quickly fell asleep again.
Li Su'er looked at Chen Yang's sleeping face with a satisfied expression.
"Looks like I still have a lot of feminine charm, sleeping like a little kid," she thought to herself.
He slept soundly until evening, and when he woke up, Li Su'er was no longer beside him.
Chen Yang was a little dazed, and he rubbed his head.
Is it a dream?
He was starting to have doubts.
Just then, Li Su'er pushed open the door and entered.
"You're awake. Wait a minute, I'll go cook you a bowl of beef and barley noodles. You missed dinner time."
After Li Su'er finished speaking, she went out again.
Chen Yang sat on the bed in a daze for a while, then smiled and stretched.
I slept very soundly. Although I was a little groggy when I woke up, I could feel that my energy had recovered a lot.
After a while, the steaming hot beef and barley noodles were served.
A dozen or so thinly sliced beef pieces covered the top, along with a tea egg and a few cloves of garlic.
Chen Yang only then realized he was hungry. He ate the beef noodles clean, even gnawing on a few cloves of garlic.
"See? My noodles are delicious, aren't they?"
"Hmm." Chen Yang nodded and said, "One sip gives you a hundred times the energy, one bowl grants you immortality."
Li Su'er was taken aback, then burst into laughter.
"Alright, you can go get to work now. We just discovered that the woodshed is leaking, and Old Wang is working on it."
"The woodshed is leaking? Why didn't you call me sooner?"
“We’ve all decided to let you get some rest. Now that you’ve rested enough, you can go back to work,” Li Su’er said.
Chen Yang nodded, then put on his straw hat and raincoat and went out. Li Su'er wanted to follow him, but Chen Yang said something.
"We'll handle this. You just need to stay inside and look beautiful while I come home."
"Let me help you," Li Su'er said.
"No need, just light the fire and prepare hot water in the house. I'll be right back," Chen Yang said with a smile, then walked into the rain.
Wang Bing was already on the roof, hammering nails into a plank.
The nails they made weren't very convenient to use, but for this kind of temporary repair, nothing was simpler and faster than nails.
Since Wang Bing was already up there, Chen Yang didn't need to go up either. He handed the plank to Wang Bing from below, while Zhang Jian helped him check for leaks in the house and added another layer of leaves to the firewood for protection.
They've been getting their firewood from the woodshed these past few days. If the firewood in the woodshed gets soaked, they won't have a fire for the next few days, and it will take a day or two to dry it again after the rain, so the woodshed must be repaired.
Fortunately, it was just a leak, and Wang Bing came down after half an hour.
The three returned to the house, took off their clothes again, dried themselves off, and then changed into new animal skin garments.
"Chen Yang, let's keep this tiger skin as a spare piece of clothing for you. It's the rarest animal skin available right now, and only it fits you perfectly," Wang Bing said with a smile.
Chen Yang didn't refuse. He did like the three tiger skins that were still drying. Tiger skins were very comfortable to wear, and Chen Yang narcissistically felt that he was quite suited to wearing tiger skins.
"By the way, Su'er, how's the grapevines going?" Chen Yang asked, as he hadn't contacted them at all today.
“When I arrived, they had already installed windbreaks, but some of the grapes were still damaged by the rain. Our grape yield will be reduced by about one-fifth,” Li Su’er said.
Chen Yang nodded; one-fifth was acceptable. The vineyard was large enough that they would use most of it for making jam, juice, oil, and wine, so a little less wouldn't matter.
Aside from some damage to the grapevines, it seems that some fish have also died in the fishpond. A group of fish are crammed into a puddle, so there are still quite a few problems.
Apart from that, nothing else happened.
The heavy rain lasted for two days, but nothing much happened during those two days because the rain gradually subsided.
The torrential rain finally showed signs of stopping, which lifted everyone's spirits somewhat. Ye Wu said that the rain was even lighter over the western border river and could no longer be considered a downpour.
The gloom of the past few days was swept away, and everyone was looking forward to the micro-world after the rainstorm.
This torrential rain was truly like a major cleansing of the microcosm; the plants and animals that survived this baptism will surely grow even stronger.
Tu Li reported to his superiors as agreed, explaining that the reason why Weijie Inn had so many powerful people was entirely due to the fact that Weijie Inn's thousand-year-old Pu'er tea was attracting these big shots.
He specifically praised Chen Yang and his friends' treasured thousand-year-old Pu'er tea to the skies, and Yun Hu and Guo Zifeng also released the news at the opportune moment.
The news that Weijie Inn possessed a thousand-year-old Pu'er tea quickly spread among the upper echelons of Hangzhou.
Wealthy people, especially older wealthy people, are particularly fond of tea. Upon hearing the news of the thousand-year-old Pu'er tea, they naturally wanted to try it. Unfortunately, Yun Hu also mentioned that even with an offer of 500,000 yuan, the innkeeper wouldn't sell it; it was only available for sale in his shop.
500,000 yuan is enough to keep most wealthy people out of the market. Nobody's money comes from thin air. They can afford it, but that doesn't mean they're willing to spend it on a cake of tea.
However, this only applies to the majority; many people have called or visited Chen Yang to inquire whether he is willing to sell his Pu'er tea. After all, Yun Hu and Guo Zifeng have good reputations, and the authenticity of this thousand-year-old Pu'er tea is highly questionable.
The highest bid was 1 million yuan per cake of tea. That's enough to buy a house in a third-tier city. And this is just the price of a cake of tea? The world of the rich is truly unimaginable for ordinary people.
However, Chen Yang insisted on not selling it, saying that he would only give it to hotel guests, and even then, it depended on his mood; not everyone could drink it.
This resulted in a surge in the number of hotel guests, and indeed some of them did get to drink the beverage.
One of them was a well-known tea taster from Hangzhou who had been engaged in tea tasting for more than 40 years and was one of the authoritative representatives in the industry. Guo Zifeng once spent a lot of money to have him taste his tea factory and gave it a score of 80, which made Guo Zifeng's tea business much better.
This time, however, the veteran tea taster gave the Millennium Pu'er Tea from Weijie Inn an exceptionally high score of 95 points.
"Of all the teas I've ever drunk in my life, this one ranks among the top three. Only the finest West Lake Longjing I once had at a tea friend's house and the Wuyi Mountain Mother Tree Da Hong Pao I had the pleasure of drinking during a tea tasting event can compare to it."
Upon hearing this, all the tea lovers in the upper echelons of HZ were stunned.
