After watching a competition, there were no more interesting plays to watch, and many people were preparing to leave.

After all, today’s competition lasted too long, and everyone waiting here was starving.

Seeing the crowd preparing to leave, Xia Zheng’s eyes lit up, and he suddenly announced loudly: "Everyone, the vegetables from Dongtiansheng are only available today.

The original price is one tael of silver per catty, but today, to celebrate our victory at Dongtiansheng, everything is 20% off!

Quality goods at a low price, come and buy while you can! "

20% off!

The people who were already thinking of buying vegetables became even more excited when they heard this news. The wealthy ladies who had the means and the intention to buy vegetables quickly sent their maids to make the purchases.

Seeing the crowd rushing to buy, Yan Xiangkai became anxious and couldn’t afford to be polite with Lin Yuan anymore, hurriedly instructing the young servers of Drunken Immortal Tower to also display the seafood they had prepared for sale.

We may have lost today’s competition, but we cannot fall behind in selling goods.

It was already near noon now, and the Shopkeeper of River View Tower had already prepared various dishes, just waiting for the large crowd watching the competition to come and dine.

However, before he could get pleased, he noticed that the people who were already sitting inside the River View Tower all shouted and left in unison.

What happened? Wasn’t it said that because of this competition, their business at River View Tower would improve a lot?

He stopped a person who was leaving to ask, and the Shopkeeper of River View Tower felt completely confused.

"Second Young Master Xia said that to celebrate the victory of Dongtiansheng, all the meals at Dongtiansheng today are half price! Half price! You know how much silver you can save! I can’t chat with you anymore, I have to hurry!"

"Ah, right, not just Dongtiansheng, but Drunken Immortal Tower too! It’s said they are also offering half-price meals! We’ve decided, we’re eating lunch at Dongtiansheng and dinner at Drunken Immortal Tower! Haha!"

The Shopkeeper helplessly watched as the customers left, then slumped down on a chair and muttered in a daze, "I knew it, I knew it, how could Dongtiansheng and Drunken Immortal Tower let us at River View Tower make money so easily? Indeed, indeed!"

Seeing everyone competing to buy off-season vegetables, Lin Yuan and Xia Zheng shared a knowing smile, leaving Xiao He and Gao Xuan behind while letting Shopkeeper Liu and the rest quickly return to Dongtiansheng to manage the situation.

Due to today’s meals being sold at half price, it would definitely attract many locals to come and dine, and it would be problematic not to have someone in charge at Dongtiansheng.

Not just Shopkeeper Liu, but Princess Anle, Zhao Hongde, and Lady Liu had also embarked on carriages to return to the city.

Although everyone was dressed warmly, it was still winter and by the lakeside, and having waited for such a long time, everyone was surely frozen, so it was best to return home and warm up first.

As for the celebration feast, let’s wait for everyone to gather together in the evening to celebrate then!

Lao Fan was thinking about Zhuang Kangping’s Lotus Wine, while Zhuang Kangping was fixated on Lin Yuan’s red wine. Thus, the two white-haired old men, unwilling to leave, insisted on following Lin Yuan closely like conjoined twins, determined to wait for her.

Lin Yuan was both amused and annoyed, so she quickly wrapped up things here to head back to the city sooner.

Speaking of today’s victory, the most crucial contribution was indeed from He Lienuo’s last vote.

Although Xia Zheng didn’t like He Lienuo, he still approached him and expressed his thanks.

Hearing Xia Zheng say thanks, not only was He Lienuo shocked, but even Su Tianrui, who grew up with him, stared in disbelief as if the man before him was not the arrogant Second Young Master Xia who respected no one.

Xia Zheng simply rolled his eyes nonchalantly, glanced at his beloved woman, and hooked his lips mischievously: "For my woman, not to mention just a thank you, even if I were asked to eat shit, I’d be too willing!"

He Lienuo’s face changed, and his fingers clutching the ink jade bone fan suddenly turned pale.

Watching Xia Zheng’s graceful departure, Tian Rui blinked his eyes, looked at He Lienuo somewhat dazedly, and stuttered, "What did he say? Willing to eat shit? Oh my! Is he implying you’re shit? Ouch, why are you hitting me? Aren’t we good friends?"

Off-season vegetables indeed are great items. Although the price is a bit high, for those who are not short of money, these small amounts of silver are still affordable.

Within two hours, the vegetables brought by Liu Siliang had been completely sold out, and some even made arrangements with Shopkeeper Liu to deliver ten catties of delicious off-season vegetables to their houses every day!

Seeing the off-season vegetables sell so well, Lin Yuan and Liu Siliang both felt that the land in He family village was probably not enough.

However, since Xia Zheng mentioned that he had quietly brought back a batch of Glaze from the Western Region, Lin Yuan came up with a new idea.

Normally, greenhouses should be built with plastic sheeting, but since there was no plastic here, using Glaze might save a lot of trouble.

However, this idea also had its downsides, as such a glasshouse would be completely exposed to the public, so this thought was quickly discarded.

This off-season vegetable project was her uncle’s many years of hard work; she could not reveal such a secretive thing for the sake of convenience.

After discussing with Liu Siliang to build a few more greenhouses, Lin Yuan took a seventy-year-old and a ninety-year-old conjoined twins back to the city.

Up in River View Tower, a sly maid quickly grabbed He Liansheng’s hand and ran downstairs. She had to talk to the Princess Pingxi in person; maybe they were even from the same hometown!
