After being jilted, the entire neighboring village was filled with deep regret.

Chapter 111 Making Money Selling Vegetables

When he saw the vegetables on the oxcart, he was so excited that he wanted to hug Shen Yi tightly. "Good heavens! You are really my lucky star! Right now, we are short of food, and even though the inn's cook is making all sorts of dishes, there are still not many customers. My business is being affected!"

If I had vegetables, all those rich people would definitely come here to eat! How much is it?

Shen Yi quoted a price, and Manager Li agreed after thinking about it for a while, even taking the rest of the dishes home.

Shen Yi had only been out for two hours when all the vegetables were sold out, earning him three taels and three fen.

Back home, he gave the money to Su Tai and said with deep emotion, "When you mentioned selling vegetables before, I didn't think it would be profitable. I didn't expect to bring back three taels and three jiao on this trip. If I make two more trips, I can earn back the money I spent on buying the wasteland."

Su Tai raised her head triumphantly, "So listening to me is always the right thing to do!"

Shen Yi nodded repeatedly, "However, this business can only be done for another half a month at most. Once the ice on the Daxun River starts to melt, the oxcart will not be able to cross."

Su Tai's heart tightened, and she quickly said, "In that case, bring more vegetables next time, and try to make four or five more trips."

Shen Yi knew immediately that Su Tai was on a mission, and said, "Then I'll go again tomorrow."

The next day, Su Tai prepared the same variety and quantity of vegetables as on the first day.

When Shen Yi arrived in Dahe Town, he did not go to find Uncle Qi, but went to Jixiang Inn first, originally wanting to inquire about the consumption of the dishes from yesterday.

Unexpectedly, Manager Li rushed over to him without saying a word, asking eagerly, "Shen Yi, Shen Yi, do you still have that yellow, fragrant, and sweet dish from yesterday?"

Shen Yi quickly lifted a corner of the thatched cover on the oxcart. "We've prepared another basket today. How did it sell yesterday, shopkeeper?"

"Great! That's wonderful! I used it to make soup as you suggested, and the soup turned out so fragrant! It even had a hint of sweetness. All the guests who came to eat there said it was delicious, and some of the hotel guests also asked me about it, willing to pay for it."

"I only have so little, how could it be enough! But the guests who come to the door are all like ancestors, I can't offend them, so I can only appease them one by one, and only after much persuasion can I keep them calm. That's why I've been waiting for you here since early this morning. If you hadn't come, I would have gone to find Uncle Qi!" Manager Li held onto Shen Yi tightly, his posture easily causing misunderstandings.

Shen Yi quickly broke free and carried a basket of corn down. "How much do you want?"

"I want them all!" Manager Li answered without the slightest hesitation, and also asked for half a cabbage, half a cauliflower and half a head of cabbage.

Before leaving, Shen Yi was reluctant to part and repeatedly told him, "You have to come again tomorrow and bring me more corn. Thank you!"

Even after Shen Yi had gone far away, Manager Li was still gazing out of the inn and shouting.

With not many dishes left, Shen Yi didn't look for any more restaurants or eateries, but instead went to the south where the wealthy lived.

They sold out after I visited just two stores.

Just like yesterday, I earned three ounces and three cents.

On the third day, as requested by Manager Li, Shen Yi brought an extra basket of corn this time.

Manager Li still ordered everything, and surprisingly, he also ordered a basket of cabbage, saying that the cook's cabbage was getting better and better and was especially popular with diners.

The remaining vegetables were sold to wealthy families in town.

Shen Yi made four trips in a row, and Su Tai's total spending at the Mu Shi Kong Vegetable Store is almost over 10,000 yuan. One more trip will be enough.

Therefore, she bought two thousand virtual coins worth of goods in one go, and Mu Shikong was upgraded immediately.

The Wood Dimension, now at level three, has an additional fruit seedling, tree seedling, and flower seedling shop.

Not far from the vegetable store, the site covers an area estimated to be about the size of a basketball court, with several acres of nursery fields behind it.

The shop was doing brisk business, bustling with customers, including big bosses, niche enthusiasts, and artsy young people. Su Tai moved among them unnoticed by anyone else.

She clenched her fist excitedly, found the shop owner, and asked nervously, "Boss, do you sell sugarcane seedlings here?"

"Selling!" the shopkeeper answered quickly, with a hint of surprise. "Don't people grow sugarcane where you live? You actually came all the way to my shop to buy some!"

Su Tai nodded quickly.

The shopkeeper said, "The sugarcane seedlings need to be dug up back in the village. If you're not in a hurry, you can pay a deposit first and come back tomorrow to pick them up. How many do you want?"

"I want to cultivate ten acres of land," Su Tai quickly reported the figure.

The boss made a note that it would cost 2,500 virtual coins to plant sugarcane seedlings per mu (unit of land area), so 25,000 virtual coins would be used for ten mu. A deposit of 5,000 virtual coins was required, and the remainder would be paid upon delivery and acceptance.

After finishing her work, Su Tai hurried back to the transfer station and began to look up the new rules of the Wood Dimension.

She has now reached level three in the Wood Dimension. The next upgrade requires her to spend a total of 50,000 virtual coins at the seedling shop.

She has already spent 25,000 today, and spending 50,000 doesn't seem too difficult.

After reading the rules, she immediately used a trolley to move the vegetables to her own yard.

Seeing that there were twice as many goods, Shen Yi sighed helplessly, "Looks like I'll have to make two trips."

Su Tai chuckled sheepishly, "This is the last batch. Once this batch of vegetables is sold out, you can rest for half a month. I'll take this opportunity to give you a good rest so you won't have to work too hard in the spring."

Shen Yi glanced at it with amusement, but didn't take Su Tai's words seriously.

As soon as he left, Su Tai went out to find Xu Shi and asked her to buy chicken.

Xu thought Su Tai wanted to nourish her body, and thought to herself, "It's best for pregnant women to use old hens to nourish their bodies. Right now, even if people have old hens, they won't sell them. They're all keeping them to lay eggs!"

Seeing that Madam Xu had misunderstood, Su Tai quickly explained, "Second Aunt, I wanted to buy chicken to make chicken soup for Shen Yi to nourish his body. It doesn't have to be an old hen."

"Huh? Shen Yi needs to replenish his body? Isn't he as strong as an ox?" Xu asked, looking bewildered.

Su Tai chuckled and thought about it carefully. It seemed that Shen Yi had indeed become much stronger after they got married.

Seeing that she was embarrassed, Xu smiled and said, "Okay, I'll ask around for you later. If they have any, I'll buy them for you and kill one for you while I'm at it."

Su Tai quickly thanked her and left a tael of silver for Xu before returning home.

Holding the silver, Madam Xu sighed to Shen Zhuang, "Ah Yi is quite fortunate to have married such a caring wife. Who else would be willing to spend money to buy chickens for their man to nourish his body?"

She roughly guessed Su Tai's intention, which is why she was particularly moved.

Shen Zhuang nodded in agreement, "That child has finally seen the light at the end of the tunnel. Now we can finally rest assured and make plans for our two sons."

Shen Liang and Shen Wen, whose names were mentioned, widened their eyes innocently. "Dad, we don't need you to worry about us! Didn't we just build this house? The money we saved last year is enough for us to get married!"

Hearing her son's words, Xu laughed in anger, "You two are really something! Our little courtyard isn't even half the size of your cousin's house. What, do you two brothers want to get married and live under the same roof in the future?"

"Let me tell you, the land we bought last autumn was for your benefit. This year, you two need to work hard at the land and try to earn some money this autumn so we can buy land and build a yard. Then, when the eldest son gets married, we can move out, and the two of us can go with whomever we want."

Originally, Xu didn't dare to think so much, but ever since her family earned a large sum of money last year, her thoughts have changed.
