Chapter 406

That Boss Jin who was always thinking of shady ways to do business also could not be let off.

In short, they could not let their business continue to affect the peaceful lives of the Mo Family People.

Tang Mingrui clasped his hands towards the Mo Family People again.

"There are still many things to deal with today, so I won't disturb you further."

If it was in the past, he would definitely have eaten a delicious meal at the Mo's before leaving.

But now it was not possible, he was in a hurry!

Mo Jiuye knew that when it came to doing business, Tang Mingrui was an impatient man, so he did not try to make him stay.

He Zhiran took the opportunity before Tang Mingrui left to have Lan Er bring a large watermelon for him to take back.

"Brother Tang, this fruit is also produced by my family. Take it back and try it. I estimate there will be another ten days or so before the ones planted in the fields mature. If you are interested, we can discuss it when the time comes."

It was Tang Mingrui's first time seeing such a large fruit.

In fact, even by modern standards, the watermelons grown by He Zhiran were exceptionally outstanding.

After all, they were grown from seeds from the space, so the watermelons were bound to be special in some ways. Huge size was just one trait. More importantly, each one was as sweet as honey.

Moreover, He Zhiran was not worried about her business being snatched away either. She had already tested that only seeds cultivated in the space would not be picky about soil and climate. CHeCk for new stories on no/v/el/bin(.)c0m

The naturally formed seeds planted outside were no different from ordinary seeds.

The land in the northwest was barren, and many crops could not survive at all. Even if those people bought watermelons or cantaloupes, it was unlikely they would have any harvest planting them in the northwest.

Of course, this did not rule out that some smart people might bring the fruit to other regions to plant. Even if they grew successfully, the fruit would be no different from ordinary seeded ones, and could not compare at all to the fruit grown here in terms of either appearance or taste.

Tang Mingrui held the large watermelon, feeling its weight, at least thirty catties.

"Sister-in-law Nine, this is a fruit?"

He was almost incredulous. He had seen winter melons produced in Beijing, which were the largest crops in his cognition.

Now, his cognition was completely refreshed by the huge watermelon he was holding, and he had to ask again to convince himself.

He Zhiran had anticipated that the huge watermelon would shock Tang Mingrui. The Mo family people had the same reaction when they first saw it.

Somewhat disappointed, Tang Mingrui asked, "Big Brother Nine, aren't the watermelons grown by your family?"

Yesterday when He Zhiran gave Tang Mingrui a watermelon, it was for the purpose of letting him get an early understanding of future business cooperation. On this point, Mo Jiuye could not possibly conceal anything.

"The watermelons are also home-grown, it's just that they are not ripe yet at the moment."

Hearing this answer, Tang Mingrui was elated.

In his mind, he had already envisioned countless taels of silver flying his way.

Just then, Tang Mingrui excitedly grabbed Mo Jiuye's hand.

"Big Brother Nine, quick, tell me when the watermelons will ripen?"

Being grabbed by a grown man felt somewhat strange to Mo Jiuye. He quickly pulled his hand back and took a few steps away.

"When you've sold all the cantaloupes in the fields, the watermelons will have ripened."

This was the timeframe calculated by He Zhiran, because she had discovered a problem.

The watermelon seeds produced by the space would continue to grow in size after maturity even if they were not picked, as long as they remained planted outside.

Of course, the watermelons would not keep growing indefinitely. Once they reached a certain size, growth would stop.

But this timeframe happened to coincide with when the cantaloupes would be almost completely sold off.

Hearing that he still had to wait for some time, Tang Mingrui felt a tinge of disappointment.

It was not for anything else. Nevermind how much profit the watermelons could bring him, at the very least, he and his family would be able to eat their fill of watermelons every day. Just thinking of that feeling made Tang Mingrui incredibly expectant already.

But the watermelons were not yet ripe. It was not something that could be rushed. He could only repress the reluctance in his heart.

"Alright, the moment the watermelons ripen, Big Brother Nine must immediately send someone to notify me."

"No problem, as soon as the watermelons are ripe, I'll send someone to inform you." Detecting Tang Mingrui's thoughts, Mo Jiuye's tone carried a hint of reassurance.

This trip could be considered extremely fruitful for Tang Mingrui. Not knowing just how many cantaloupes the Mo family had for sale, he specifically went to the carriage service to hire several carriage, just to be safe.

Coupled with his own carriage, there was a total of eight carriages.

Unexpectedly, he managed to fill up all eight carriages this trip.
