This herbal fertilizer not only repels insects but also nourishes the ginseng seedlings!
This is like a dream!
"This fertilizer not only eradicates all pests and diseases in the soil but also provides better nutrients for the ginseng seedlings. It's an improved version of the herbal fertilizer," Er Zhu said slowly, ignoring everyone's astonished gazes.
In an instant, everyone swallowed hard, wanting to speak but not knowing where to begin.
Such potent fertilizer was unheard of in the market, yet Er Zhu could concoct it! Were they, normal people, truly inferior to a fool? Though it was embarrassing to admit, the facts were undeniable. Even if they didn't want to believe it, they had to.
Meanwhile, the onlookers like Fei Tou, who had come to watch the spectacle, nearly dropped their eyeballs. Er Zhu had resolved such a widespread pest and disease problem so effortlessly? And he was supposed to be a fool! Amidst their shock, a hint of admiration flickered in their eyes. They increasingly felt that working with Er Zhu was highly beneficial!
"Er Zhu, we were too excited just now. Please don't hold it against us."
"That's right, we were wrong. We apologize!"
"Er Zhu, you're amazing. I knew from the start this had nothing to do with you, but they wouldn't listen!"
As Er Zhu was about to leave, several villagers who had previously mocked him surrounded him, apologizing profusely and with obsequious smiles.
"Eleven thousand per bag, if you want to buy, come to my house!"
Er Zhu naturally understood their intentions. He didn't even glance at the villagers, merely dropping this statement before heading home. They thought they could get the herbal fertilizer this way and took him for a fool! Although he didn't care about their mockery, he had to make these villagers pay the price they deserved! Otherwise, if they caused trouble at his house for every little thing, how could he live?
Watching Er Zhu's retreating back, all the villagers were stunned. They looked at each other, their expressions a mixture of bewilderment and contemplation. A bag of fertilizer for ten thousand yuan was indeed expensive, but considering what they had just witnessed, it seemed worth every penny!
"Er Zhu, I want one!"
"Me too!"
"And me!"
Seconds later, a villager shouted loudly and ran towards Er Zhu, as if fearing that Er Zhu would regret it if they were late. Seeing someone take the lead, the other villagers, unwilling to be outdone, also rushed towards Er Zhu.
Liu Da Shu, who had just recovered from his shock, nodded with a smile. If only Er Zhu weren't a fool...
In less than three hours, Er Zhu's herbal fertilizer was completely sold out. With this fertilizer, Er Zhu had earned a full five hundred thousand! Looking at the balance on his bank card, Er Zhu remained calm. But Li Mei, standing beside him, was utterly dumbfounded. She had expected Er Zhu to be in trouble today, but he had actually gotten rich! Er Zhu was truly incredible! He was more remarkable than anyone she had ever met! Li Mei's eyes involuntarily turned towards Er Zhu, and his image in her heart grew considerably taller.
"Mei Jie, I'm going to the river to catch fish. We'll have fish tonight."
As Li Mei was still in shock, Er Zhu suddenly turned and said this before preparing to leave.
"Er Zhu, the sun is already setting. What fish can you possibly catch?"
As Er Zhu walked past Li Mei, she grabbed his arm and pointed at the setting sun. The fish in the river were fast, and it was difficult even for normal people to catch them, let alone a fool like Er Zhu!
"Mei Jie, you just wait at home. I'll definitely catch fish."
Seeing Li Mei's worried expression, Er Zhu gently pushed her hand away and continued walking. It wasn't just close to dark; he could catch fish even in the early morning! Besides, it wasn't just catching fish; he could even catch tadpoles! Because he had the Heavenly Eye!
"No, I'll go with you."
Seeing Er Zhu's determination, Li Mei didn't stop him. She grabbed her fish spear and hurried after him. Looking at the fish spear in Li Mei's hand, Er Zhu shook his head speechlessly. He didn't need a fish spear, but if he prevented Li Mei from bringing one, it would likely lead to a lengthy argument, and he was too lazy to engage in such pointless talk.
After walking only a few steps, Er Zhu and Li Mei encountered Aunt Wang Er. Aunt Wang Er lowered her head in shame, creating an awkward moment. She had been the one who most fiercely mocked Er Zhu earlier, and she wondered if he held a grudge.
"Er Zhu, where are you going?"
Despite the awkwardness, Aunt Wang Er, considering Er Zhu's astonishing abilities, had to break the silence.
"To catch fish for Mei Jie to eat."
Er Zhu revealed his characteristic simple and honest smile, pointing towards the river.
*Hmph...*
Hearing this, Aunt Wang Er couldn't help but let out a chuckle. A fool is a fool, going to catch fish at night!
"Let's go, Er Zhu. Don't waste your breath on her."
Seeing the mockery in Aunt Wang Er's eyes, Li Mei pulled Er Zhu along and walked away. If she were Er Zhu, she wouldn't sell the herbal fertilizer for any price! They had just been showering Er Zhu with thanks, and now they were laughing at him. What kind of people were they!
"Hahaha... Er Zhu, you're killing me!"
Seeing that Li Mei had seen through her, Aunt Wang Er no longer bothered to hide her amusement and burst into laughter, as if she had heard the most hilarious joke. Hearing the commotion, a few other villagers gathered. After hearing Aunt Wang Er's words, they couldn't help but laugh as well. A fool is a fool, no matter how capable, they are still a fool!
"Let's wait here. I want to see what kind of fish you can catch!"
Aunt Wang Er's eyes suddenly gleamed with a cunning glint as she looked at the figures shrinking in the distance. Today's events had thoroughly embarrassed her, and she was looking for a way to redeem herself, when an opportunity presented itself! The others exchanged glances and nodded in agreement. They sat down under a tree, eagerly anticipating the outcome.
At this moment, Er Zhu and Li Mei had reached the riverbank. Just as Li Mei was about to hand the fish spear to Er Zhu, he surprisingly leaped into the river.
"Er Zhu, quickly take the fish spear! You won't catch any fish otherwise!"
Before Li Mei could finish speaking, Er Zhu suddenly raised his hand. In his grasp was a carp weighing over a pound!
"Er Zhu, you're amazing! You caught such a big fish!"
Li Mei was instantly stunned. She clapped her hands and extended a thumb towards Er Zhu in disbelief. It was already dark, yet Er Zhu had managed to catch a fish, and such a large one at that! Did Er Zhu have the Fiery Eyes like the Monkey King?
As Li Mei's mind raced, a flash of brilliance appeared in Er Zhu's eyes. He didn't have Fiery Eyes, but he had the Heavenly Eye!
After an unknown period, as Aunt Wang Er and the others grew hungry, someone suddenly shouted:
"Look! Er Zhu is back!"
