The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion

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.

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.

She smiled and explained, "This is a fruit. When you get back, cut it into small pieces with a knife and eat the red flesh inside. It would taste even better if you can store it in a cool place to chill for a while first."

The watermelons eaten by the Mo family were usually soaked in the well in advance to cool down, which quenched thirst and cooled off the summer heat.

He Zhiran had also considered using saltpeter to make ice, she just had not had the time for it recently as she was busy with other things.

Tang Mingrui nodded repeatedly as he listened. He was already eagerly looking forward to tasting this large fruit called watermelon.

"Then I'll have to thank Sister-in-law Nine." Then he looked at Mo Jiuye, "Big brother Nine, you'll have to send some people to help escort Second Master's gang to the prefecture for me." 𝚏r𝗲ewe𝚋𝐧𝚘vel.𝚌𝚘m

"No problem, I'll have someone go with you now."

Mo Jiuye answered readily. After all, Tang Mingrui had come alone, and it would be difficult for him to escort so many petty thugs on his own.

As for how Tang Mingrui would deal with those people, it was none of his concern. As long as those people stopped causing trouble for the Mo family, things would be fine.

Early the next morning, Tang Mingrui came to transport the cantaloupes, earlier than expected. The sky outside had just brightened.

Fortunately, Mo Jiuye had arranged for people to go pick in the fields in advance. Otherwise, even if they came early, they would have had to wait.

Last night, He Zhiran had quietly placed the cantaloupes stored in the space near the melon fields. With the dogs keeping watch, there was no need to worry at all about them being stolen.

It had been a long time since Tang Mingrui had come to the Mo family in person to take goods. This showed how much importance he attached to the cantaloupe business this time.

On that side, there were people he had brought along with Mo family members responsible for weighing the cantaloupes. Tang Mingrui pulled Mo Jiuye aside and asked excitedly, "Big Brother Nine, the watermelon you sent yesterday was too delicious. I listened to Sister-in-law Nine and chilled it in the well for a while. It really was crisp and thirst-quenching when eaten."

Speaking of this, Tang Mingrui even swallowed subconsciously.

Seeing him like this made Mo Jiuye unable to hold back his laughter.

The relationship between Mo Jiuye and Tang Mingrui was now very close. He put his arm around Tang Mingrui's shoulder and said with a smile,

"Which do you think would be more popular, watermelon or cantaloupe?"

"Both fruits are delicious. If Big Brother insists I make an evaluation, I feel that watermelon tastes slightly better."

As Tang Mingrui spoke, his eyes had already started scanning the Mo family's fields.

He knew that the huge watermelons should have also been grown by the Mo family. He wanted to take an early look at what the watermelons looked like in the field.

It was just a pity that as his eyes swept around, he did not catch sight of a single watermelon.

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.
