Upon hearing Cheng Fugui's words, Xu Minghui, Liu Tingshu, and Liu Xinyue were utterly bewildered. Cheng Xiaofan had flown back from the sky – what could that possibly mean?
Seeing Cheng Fugui run out of the door, the three of them followed.
"Screech—"
"Woof woof!"
This time, not only did the sharp cry of an eagle come from the air, but also the sound of dogs barking.
The three couldn't help but look up curiously. They saw a young man and woman sitting on a giant eagle, slowly descending.
Liu Tingshu and his granddaughter Liu Xinyue immediately recognized the young man as Cheng Xiaofan.
On Cheng Xiaofan's shoulder, a dog was perched.
Liu Xinyue had visited Zhuxi Village several times and naturally recognized it as Tao Qibao.
However, this was the first time she had seen Cheng Xiaofan flying through the sky on the back of an eagle.
The scene before them left the three of them so stunned that they were frozen in place!
This was understandable. Not everyone enjoyed watching live streams and had prior knowledge of Cheng Xiaofan's usual lifestyle.
Liu Xinyue had known Cheng Xiaofan for some time, but she had never imagined he possessed such a magical side.
As for Liu Tingshu, he had already regarded Cheng Xiaofan as an absolute master among men, based on the fruits and vegetables he cultivated, the divine fish, and the happy wine he brewed.
However, he now realized that his observations had not been comprehensive enough. True masters were transcendent, possessing not only an ethereal aura but also the ability to ride eagles through the sky.
When the Broken Sky Eagle was still more than ten meters above the ground, Cheng Xiaofan embraced Bai Yiling's slender waist and leaped from the air, landing on the ground.
"Old Liu, you and Xinyue are here!" Cheng Xiaofan walked over and greeted them.
Hearing this, Liu Tingshu snapped out of his astonishment and said with a smile, "Yes, we set out before dawn."
He then pointed to Xu Minghui and introduced, "Xiaofan, this is the nationally renowned wine appraisal master I mentioned to you, Mr. Xu Minghui!"
Cheng Xiaofan nodded, took the hand Xu Minghui extended, and shook it. "Welcome, Master Xu!"
"No, no, please!"
Xu Minghui said with a hint of trepidation, "How dare I call myself a master in front of Mr. Cheng? True masters emerge from the common folk, and you are the real master!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled, "Master Xu, you are too modest."
"By the way, the beautiful lady beside me is Bai Yiling. She was once the president of Bai Corporation in C City. Many of you might still remember her as Princess Xiaoxiao from a TV drama!"
"Ah, no wonder you looked so familiar! So you are the Princess Xiaoxiao from back then!"
Liu Xinyue rushed forward, grabbed Bai Yiling's hand, and shook it repeatedly, appearing ecstatic. "I was a huge fan back then! I never thought I'd meet you here today!"
"I had heard that President Bai invested in Zhuxi Village, but I didn't expect it to be you!"
Bai Yiling smiled, "I'm just an ordinary girl. It's nothing. Let's not stand out here; please come inside and have a seat!"
Since there were many people eating at home today, Miao Xiuhua was worried that Cheng Fugui wouldn't be able to manage alone and did not go to the wine-making workshop.
"Xinyue is an old friend," Cheng Xiaofan said to Xu Minghui and Liu Tingshu. "Please make yourselves at home!"
Liu Tingshu said with a hint of awe, "Xiaofan, it's truly unbelievable that you can ride an eagle and fly through the sky!"
Cheng Xiaofan shook his head and said, "There's no other way. The primeval forest in the hundred-thousand-li mountains behind our Zhuxi Village, I want to search for some usable resources. Walking in there is not feasible. If we encounter ferocious beasts, we won't even have time to escape."
"In such a situation, a small farmer like me had to catch an eagle to use as a plane. Although it may not seem grand, it's practical!"
Hearing his words, the two old men exchanged speechless glances.
Could anyone else catch an eagle to use as a plane for fun?
In this world, there was probably no one who could live as freely as him.
"Xiaofan, here is the appraisal report for your happy wine. Please take a look!"
At this moment, Xu Minghui took out the appraisal report from a leather bag by his side and presented it to Cheng Xiaofan.
Cheng Xiaofan took the report and read it carefully. It was indeed as Liu Tingshu had said.
This appraisal report bore Xu Minghui's personal signature, as well as the seals and signatures of various authoritative departments.
"Thank you, Elder Xu!"
Cheng Xiaofan knew this was a valuable acquisition.
The recommendation of these premium happy wines would surely be beneficial.
Just then, Yang Danjie walked in and smiled at Cheng Xiaofan, saying, "Xiaofan, the appraisal report for the happy wine is ready. Please take a look."
As she spoke, she handed over a stack of appraisal reports.
Cheng Xiaofan took them and read them carefully. He was stunned.
The content of this appraisal report was almost identical to Xu Minghui's, making one think it was a copy of Xu Minghui's report.
He hadn't expected that the elements contained in the happy wine brewed by his mother would be indistinguishable from his own.
The only difference was that his own happy wine contained rich spiritual energy, which greatly aided in the enhancement of ancient martial arts practitioners' strength.
However, spiritual energy was something that no instrument could detect.
"Dan Jie, thank you for your hard work!" Cheng Xiaofan said with a broad smile.
Yang Danjie chuckled, "You're too kind, Xiaofan. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now!"
"Okay, you go ahead with your work!"
As Cheng Xiaofan spoke, he handed the two appraisal reports to Bai Yiling and said, "Yiling, Yang Danjie is truly remarkable. The appraisal report she made for the happy wine is no different from Elder Xu's!"
"I'll entrust both these appraisal reports to you for safekeeping!"
Xu Minghui, overhearing this, said, "Xiaofan, could you get us some of the happy wine your mother brewed to taste?"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled, "Elder Xu, don't be anxious. When you leave, I'll send each of you a few catties of happy wine, and two catties of my golden tea!"
Looking at the golden tea brewed on the table, he knew that after tasting it, these two old men would be reluctant to leave.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two old men beamed with joy.
"Xiaofan, you are indeed generous!" Liu Tingshu said with a hearty laugh.
Xu Minghui happily patted his thigh and said, "Xiaofan, you are a true friend!"
"Additionally, there's something I'd like to discuss with you. In a few days, a world-famous wine auction will be held in Haicheng, on the coast. It will be attended by wine magnates from all over the world."
"Why don't you bring your happy wine to this auction and use this opportunity to make your happy wine famous worldwide!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Tingshu quickly chimed in, "Xiaofan, this is a golden opportunity, don't miss it!"
However, Cheng Xiaofan's brow furrowed upon hearing this. "Elder Xu, this is a world-famous wine auction. Mine is a newly developed wine. I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to enter!"
