Li Qingfeng’s hurried steps were followed by a sudden burst of laughter from Zong Shuyun.
“Pfft!”
“What are you laughing at?”
The originally anxious Li Qingfeng turned his head in confusion upon hearing her laughter.
Indeed, after her interruption, he no longer felt the urge to visit the restroom.
“Hiss…”
However, it was Zong Shuyun’s turn to face consequences from her joy. Perhaps the food had been too spicy, causing her to repeatedly exhale with her mouth open.
“You got burned, you deserved it!” he couldn't help but mock.
Truth be told, if Li Qingfeng hadn’t spoken, Zong Shuyun would have likely recovered. But her anger brought her back to her initial state.
“Li Qingfeng, you’ve gone too far.”
“Hiss-ha!”
The spiciness surged, almost making Zong Shuyun pass out.
“But where should we go next?”
Seeing the senior, Zong Shuyun, in front of him, Li Qingfeng couldn't help but ask.
“How about we go to the cinema to watch a movie?”
“The cinema? Let’s forget it, I don’t want to go to the cinema. I still need to procure some supplies!”
“Procure supplies? What kind of supplies do you need to get?”
Hearing Li Qingfeng’s words, Zong Shuyun asked with some confusion, not understanding what he intended to do.
“I’ve started setting up my Chinese herbal medicine base, so I’ve hired some workers. I’m responsible for their lunch every day, and I’m here to buy vegetables!”
“Oh, I see!”
After hearing his explanation, Zong Shuyun understood everything.
After all, the regulation had been approved, and by now, all the villages had likely received notice from the town government about strongly advocating for and pioneering the cultivation of Chinese herbal medicine.
Thinking of this, she no longer felt like playing and began to inquire about serious matters.
“Which Chinese herbal medicine are you planning to plant? Although the town is strongly guiding this aspect, no village has started yet, except for yours.”
Furthermore, Zong Shuyun was not surprised by this outcome.
After all, when this initiative was first proposed, she had already prepared for this possibility.
This proposal was ultimately made by Li Qingfeng, and only by him completing it would he set an example for everyone else.
“I’ve already chosen the medicinal herbs. Our village plans to plant Cistanche deserticola.”
“Cistanche deserticola has high medicinal value and is extremely effective in tonifying the kidneys and strengthening yang, making it an indispensable tool.”
Looking at Zong Shuyun beside him, Li Qingfeng couldn't help but speak.
Indeed, his introduction amused the senior, Zong Shuyun, to no end.
She covered her chest and laughed heartily, her eyes narrowing into little cat eyes.
“You, you! You’re always advertising like this, but with the appeal of such advertisements, your herbs are bound to become popular.”
Although Li Qingfeng’s advertisement was rather crude, those who understood knew how much appeal it held for the vast majority of male friends!
Thinking of this, Zong Shuyun could already imagine how well Cistanche deserticola would sell here in the future.
“You’ve chosen a very good herb. It’s likely to be a huge market!”
Zong Shuyun stated with certainty, having 100% trust in Li Qingfeng.
“Have your seedlings arrived yet?”
“Not yet, I plan to search for a couple more days, but there aren’t any good seedlings in our town.”
Hearing Zong Shuyun’s inquiry, Li Qingfeng explained.
He had actually visited the town quite a bit in the past few days and had carefully selected Cistanche deserticola seedlings, but he remained unsatisfied.
“What should we do?”
This was also something that troubled him, as the success or failure of seedling selection would directly impact future yield and effectiveness.
Seeing Li Qingfeng’s worried expression, Zong Shuyun suddenly said, “My junior, haven’t you considered cultivating the seedlings yourself in the future? This way, your Chinese herbal medicine base will be even more complete.”
Indeed, Zong Shuyun’s sudden reminder struck a chord with Li Qingfeng.
He slapped his thigh and, pulling Zong Shuyun, exclaimed in admiration, “I knew I could count on you, senior!”
“If I say so, how can you be the town mayor at such a young age? Your brain is definitely exceptionally intelligent!”
Hearing his words, Zong Shuyun rolled her eyes and directly said, “Are you insulting me or complimenting me?”
Li Qingfeng scratched his head and replied sheepishly, “Of course, I’m complimenting you!”
“If you praise like this, those young girls might believe it. But I’m not that superficial.”
Zong Shuyun smiled triumphantly and flicked his forehead with a small flick.
Turning to look at Driver Xiao Li, who was walking over, Zong Shuyun waved at him.
“Xiao Li, we’re here…”
“Coming, Madam Mayor!”
Seeing the aloof town mayor call for him again, Driver Xiao Li scampered over.
He was truly speechless regarding his mayor.
For some reason, every time she encountered this man, her intelligence seemed to become negative.
Of course, if others knew, they would say he had never been in love.
After all, as everyone would say, “It’s good to be ignorant sometimes!”
The two then went to various seedling bases in town, searching for Cistanche deserticola seedlings, instead of going to the cinema.
Indeed, the seedlings were hard to find.
Finally, he found the seedlings at a few stalls he often saw in town, but the quality was still the same, which he disliked.
Perhaps because he had only inquired without buying before, the stall owners had a deep impression of him.
Most of them were unwilling to serve him. Only the last stall owner agreed to let him see the seedlings.
Under Zong Shuyun’s gaze, he directly finalized a large order.
One thousand Cistanche deserticola seedlings!
Knowing that the price of seedlings was fifty yuan each!
One thousand seedlings would amount to a total of fifty thousand yuan, which was a substantial order!
The boss was immediately overjoyed and even gave Li Qingfeng an additional 100 new seedlings for free.
In the boss’s words, he was now a loyal customer, and the 100 seedlings were a gesture of goodwill.
Thus, Li Qingfeng made another trip to the bank and paid the entire fifty thousand yuan.
After the boss received the money, he had Li Qingfeng leave his address and arranged to have the seedlings delivered the day after tomorrow.
