Chapter 96
The crystal flowers in Ruisi's house are growing better and better. Recently, Jiang Chen has been receiving frequent calls from there.
"Mr. Jiang, can you cooperate with me?" Prince Rui's expression on the other end of the video chat was excited but also had a few other emotions.
After knowing that Xiao Jiang's father was a great beauty with great skills in flower-growing, he no longer cared about his son's previous ignorance in giving away such a precious crystal flower.
Now he likes Xiao Zhuang more and more, and thinks that as long as Ruisi likes him, it is not impossible for him to be with Xiao Zhuang in the future.
He couldn't make gem water with the same effect using the formula provided by Jiang Chen. He didn't know if it was a water quality problem, but he couldn't grow crystal flowers using the water from the Empire.
"Prince Rui, how would you like to cooperate?" Jiang Chen's expression remained as calm as ever, without a single unnecessary expression on his pretty face.
"Mr. Jiang, I'd like to place a long-term order for this wonderful gemstone water from you, and also sell some to others."
With just one sentence, Jiang Chen understood the interests behind it. He knew that in the empire, crystal flowers were a symbol of power and status. Once this gem water entered the market, its price would definitely rise. It was indeed a business opportunity.
However, the water source ecology at Jiang's house cannot be destroyed. Providing too much water will cause the wells to dry up.
"How much can Mr. Jiang provide every month?"
“Only ten barrels can be provided per month.”
Prince Hiei wanted much less, but since scarcity makes things valuable, he could accept it.
"How much would you like to charge, sir?"
Jiang Chen was not someone who didn't know etiquette. Rui Si had already given Xiao Jiang such a precious crystal flower before, and he also wanted to establish a good relationship with him.
"It's just a gesture, sir."
After hearing Jiang Chen's offer, Prince Rui almost couldn't hold back his expression. He didn't expect it to be much cheaper than he expected, and it could even be said to be a bargain.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Jiang."
Prince Rui looked at the large pot of crystal flowers behind Jiang Chen in the video, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Crystal flowers can improve one's luck. There are not many crystal flowers in the imperial palace. The more favored the prince is in the empire, the more he gets. But he only has three small pots.
This is a flower passed down from the royal family, and every royal relative must do their best to take good care of it.
"Mr. Jiang, I believe you also know the importance and significance of the crystal flower to the imperial family, so you..."
"These flowers were given to Xiao Zhuang by the young prince of your mansion. We are not planning to give them to anyone else."
Prince Rui felt relieved upon hearing this. "It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Jiang."
"Please keep this matter confidential, sir. Xiao Jiang and I just want to live a peaceful life."
"That's inevitable."
After hanging up the video call, Jiang Chen picked up the little zombie who was sitting at his feet playing with kittens and puppies.
The little boy hugged his father's neck and cuddled close to him, with a happy smile on his face.
After the Imperial Prince Rui's Mansion received the gem water sent by Jiang Chen, the crystal flowers grew better and better, and the price of his gem water soared all the way, even to an incredible price, and he made a lot of money from it.

Early Saturday morning.
Xiao Jiang had just gotten up when Grandpa Shu was already waiting in the living room.
"My dear grandson, please let grandpa stick to you."
Xiao Zhuang was still wearing his Little Star pajamas. He rubbed his eyes and walked slowly down the stairs. When his little feet stepped on the flat ground, he rushed directly to Grandpa Shu for a hug.
"Grandpa, give me a hug."
"Okay, okay~ Hug, hug, hug." Holding the chubby little baby, Grandpa Shu's face was full of bubbles of happiness.
Today he and Xiao Zhuang agreed to go fishing together at the reservoir in the back mountain.
After being intimate with Grandpa Shu for a while, Xiao Zhuang tugged at his pajamas and said, "Clothes, change..."
"Okay, okay, grandpa will help you."
In front of the sink, the little zombie was standing obediently on a small stool brushing his teeth. Grandpa Shu was helping to pass him cups and wring out the face towel. Grandpa Shu hadn't helped his son wash his face and brush his teeth for many years, and he was happy to serve him.
After washing up, Xiao Zhuang put away the stool and ran to his cloakroom. His short legs made a clattering sound as he ran. Grandpa Shu was so adorable that he picked Xiao Zhuang up and said, "Grandpa will go change clothes with you."
Jiang Chen just came out of the study. It was not the first time he saw Grandpa Shu walking around the house with the little zombie in his arms.
He shook his head helplessly. Grandpa Shu liked to hold Little Zhuang in his arms no matter where he was. He had reminded him before not to spoil Little Zhuang.
Unexpectedly, Grandpa Shu said directly: "This is his good grandson, he should be spoiled to the sky."
This sentence made Shu Jinye so angry that he rolled his eyes. When he was a child, he had been beaten with stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots by Grandpa Shu many times.
When Jiang Chen walked downstairs, he saw Grandma Shu feeding Xiao Jiang breakfast, even though Xiao Jiang had always eaten by himself before.
"Come here, dear grandson, this is the nutritious porridge grandma made." Grandma Shu smiled and fed a spoonful of black sesame nutritious porridge into the little zombie's mouth.
"Is it tasty?"
The little zombie was wearing a bib, and his mouth had a circle of black beard from eating. "Delicious."
"Oh my grandson is so good~"
After Grandma Shu fed the little zombie breakfast, Grandpa Shu couldn't wait to take the baby to the back mountain to fish.
Xiao Zhuang was taken out of the child seat. He also liked to go fishing with Grandpa Shu. There were many fun things to do in the back mountain. Grandma Shu chased after him and took a tissue to wipe his mouth.
A quarter of an hour later, the housekeeper and Grandpa Shu took Xiao Zhuang to the back mountain to fish.
At this moment, someone suddenly visited the door.
It's the Long family.
Father Long walked in, carrying Long Qiche. He smiled sheepishly, "This kid has been clamoring to come find Little Zhuang since early morning."
Jiang Chen ushered him into the house: "Has Xiao Che eaten yet?"
Long Qiche nodded politely to Jiang Chen, "Thank you, uncle. I've already eaten."
He got down from his father's arms, and his eyes lit up when he saw the little zombie wearing a yellow baseball cap. He immediately rushed forward and held his little hand.
"Young Master Long, we are preparing to go fishing in the back mountain." said the pink rabbit housekeeper.
"I want to go too. Dad, can I go too?" Long Qi Che looked at Yan Moran behind him.
"Of course, let's go play together." Yan Moran took out a sun hat and put it on him.
Yan Moran was relieved to know that Marshal Shu was traveling with him. He was also overjoyed that his little Che finally had a best friend.
It is several kilometers from the house to the Houshan Reservoir.
Grandpa Shu carried a large fishing tackle bag on his back. This kind of thing could obviously be placed in the space, but he insisted on carrying it, saying that putting it in the space would affect his luck in fishing.
Grandma Shu didn't bother to care about him.
Grandma Shu will prepare snacks and lunch and deliver them over personally later, so let them go first.
Xiao Zhuang was holding a small bucket with a small net bag for catching fish in his hand, and his other hand was held tightly by Long Qi Che.
The two children walked together hand in hand. Not long after they started walking, Long Qi Che could no longer open his eyes and felt dizzy and unable to stand steadily.
He was so sleepy. Today was Saturday and he hadn't slept the whole night since he got home from school yesterday.
Xiao Zhuang quickly supported Long Qiche, who was about to fall, and said, "Grandpa, Xiaoche is sleepy."
"Why are you so sleepy so early in the morning?" Grandpa Shu looked at Long Qi Che with some confusion.
Although Long Qi Che's eyes looked mature, he was just a child after all, and looked as cute as a soft bun. He couldn't bear to see the child like this. Judging from the dark circles under his eyes, he probably didn't sleep well at night.
Grandpa Shu took out the bubble flying saucer he bought for Xiao Zhuang from the space button and said, "Go up."
Long Qi Che climbed up consciously and soon fell asleep with his head tilted.
Grandpa Shu: "..."
The bubble saucer is pulled by a traction rope and can only float one meter, which is very safe for children.
Grandpa Shu handcuffed the leash tightly around his wrist and set off with Xiao Zhuang.
Long Qiche was sound asleep, and he didn't want his grandson to get tired, so he looked down at the little zombie beside his legs: "Are you tired, little zombie? Do you want grandpa to hold you?"
The colorful bucket on Xiao Zhuang's wrist swayed with his steps. He shook his head and whispered, "Xiao Zhuang can still walk."
[Little Zombie won't cause any trouble for Grandpa.]
Hearing Xiao Jiang's thoughts, Grandpa Shu's heart almost melted.
After knowing each other for these days, Grandpa Shu has a full understanding of Xiao Zhuang. A cub like Xiao Zhuang who is so well-behaved, quiet and resilient makes Grandpa Shu feel so distressed that he picked up Xiao Zhuang.
"It's okay, it's not a big deal for Grandpa to hold me."
The pink rabbit housekeeper wiped his electronic tears aside: "My young master is so sensible~"

As soon as Grandma Shu stepped into the kitchen, someone came to visit.
The people who came were Xiaoyu and Qibao.
They came specifically to learn the recipe from Grandma Shu.
The Jiang residence was suddenly unusually lively today.
Jiang Chen entertained the parents of three other children in the chess and card room.
Grandma Shu was surrounded by her two cubs in the kitchen, her face was beaming, it was so great to have so many cubs to accompany her.
The two cubs, wearing small aprons, stood on chairs and made cookies with Grandma Shu. They agreed to prepare snacks and then go to the back mountain to play with Xiao Zhuang and the others.
Xiao Zhuang was held in Grandpa Shu's arms. He looked at Long Qi Che in the bubble flying saucer behind him. He also wanted to ride the bubble flying saucer.
"Grandpa, take a flying saucer~"
"Okay." Grandpa Shu patted Xiao Zhuang's face and took out a pink bubble flying saucer for him.
The little zombie crawled into the flying saucer and sat there obediently. At this time, Long Qi Che woke up.
He controlled the handle to get out of the bubble flying saucer and climbed into the little zombie's flying saucer.
The two cubs were squeezed into a bubble flying saucer, which looked extremely crowded.
Long Qi Che fell asleep directly in Xiao Zhuang's arms after he got close to Xiao Zhuang.
Grandpa Shu couldn't bear to watch it any longer. "Why do you just sleep? Get up!"
He shook Long Qi Che to try to wake him up, but the sleeping Long Qi Che was limp and boneless. After shaking him for a long time, he leaned against the little zombie and fell asleep unconscious.
Grandpa Shu sighed helplessly, "Forget it, it's just a child."
After saying that, he pulled the Bubble Flying Saucer to the upstream reservoir to fish.
He specially built a fishing spot for himself in the reservoir, with a wooden platform where he could set up a tent and barbecue.
After arriving at the fishing spot, the pink rabbit housekeeper quickly set up the landscape tent and the canopy, and placed a warm folding sofa inside so that the cubs could rest in the tent when they were tired of playing.
Long Qi Che was still sleeping in the bubble saucer, and the little zombie crawled out to help.
The pink rabbit housekeeper and Grandpa Shu were busy on the fishing platform, and he was helping to pass things.
"My child is the best...this brat only knows how to sleep." Grandpa Shu complained while busying himself.
After the picnic camp was set up, Grandpa Shu prepared a set of children's fishing gear for Xiao Zhuang.
Xiao Zhuang followed Grandpa Shu's example and brought a small stool to sit next to him.
Under the parasol, he pinched the bait in the basin and put it on the plastic fish hook himself. "Grandpa, is this right?"
"Yes, yes, yes, my little zombie learns really fast, it's amazing!"
The little zombie smiled with dimples and swung his small fishing rod towards the lake.
