I'm wearing it, but I'm still suffering.

Chapter 236 Buying Dragon Fruit

The stall owner smiled and said, "That's a good question, young man. It's true that it can't cure all diseases. But if you have elderly people at home, you should know that because they are old, they often eat a little more, which can cause indigestion, or constipation if they don't have a full bowel movement for several days. Eating this will definitely relieve your stomach and increase your appetite."

After listening to what he said, it seemed that these were minor ailments that many elderly people were prone to. No wonder when he started selling it, he said that people should buy it to take home and honor their parents and elders.

After hearing what he said, some of the onlookers couldn't help but start asking the price.

After the stall owner announced a number, the people around him couldn't help but gasp.

"Oh my god! This is too expensive!"

The stall owner said calmly, "This little money, compared to your filial piety, can it even be called money? Besides, this is not even as expensive as a dish in that big restaurant! How can it be called expensive...?"

Liu Xiaoxiao probably heard about this price from the villagers yesterday, but now she doesn't feel much about it.

When Liu Chenfeng heard the price for the first time, his heart trembled. He thought to himself that if these auspicious fruits were really as powerful as the seller said, then he would definitely introduce these rare and precious fruits to the prosperous capital.

By then, the profits would surely be quite good. After all, what they lacked the most were people who, out of filial piety, competed with each other.

Zhufu looked at the wealthy young men in front of him, who could not wait to start carefully choosing in front of the stalls.

So he whispered to Liu Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, is this the kind of fruit you know?"

Liu Xiaoxiao nodded: "Yes."

Zhufu: "But why does what the stall owner said sound so mysterious to me? Could it be that he is deliberately exaggerating to increase the selling price?"

Liu Xiaoxiao: "It's not entirely an exaggeration. Although his statement is a bit exaggerated, in fact, if you eat the right amount, the effect is really good."

After hearing his granddaughter's confirmation, Zhufu asked, "Is this also mentioned in the book?"

Liu Xiaoxiao lied without hesitation and answered, "Yes."

When Zhufu heard this, he was furious.

Such a good thing, you have to grab it quickly!

Liu Xiaoxiao watched her grandfather, pushing forward like a loach, and she knew exactly what he was thinking. So she followed suit, pushing forward with all her might like a little wild boar. After all, she knew the principle that the sooner she struck, the more advantage she had.

Liu Chenfeng was still imagining what kind of sensation it would cause after he brought this novel fruit to the capital!

He only heard his friend loudly remind him in his ear: "What are you daydreaming about! Can't you see that the girl has already taken action? Why are you still standing there like an idiot?"

Liu Chenfeng finally woke up as if from a dream and struggled to push forward.

On the other hand, Liu Xiaoxiao, who had already walked through the crowd, was now standing in front of the stall and began her selection.

Zhufu didn't know much about this novel fruit, so when choosing it, he could only do the same as when buying other fruits, looking for those that looked fresh and had green leaves.

But Liu Xiaoxiao is different. She has eaten dragon fruit before, so her selection method is very different from Zhufu's.

First, she checks to see if the dragon fruit is plump and round. Then, she observes the distance between the scales on the skin. If the distance is too close, the flesh inside is definitely not fully ripe. On the contrary, if the distance is far and the scales are thin, the flesh inside is definitely sweet and delicious.

Then, she looked at the skin color—definitely, she wanted a bright red. Finally, she checked the stem to see if it was fresh. If it was yellow or dry, it meant the fruit had been picked a long time ago. If she bought it at that point, it would likely turn out bad.

After some careful selection, she finally found only eight that satisfied her and were both edible and plantable.

Of course, among the bunch of blessings, only two were finally recognized by Liu Xiaoxiao.

Therefore, Liu Xiaoxiao and her friends bought ten dragon fruits at once when they went out this time.

Zhufu knew that they were going to use these as seeds when they bought them today, so when he saw that Liu Xiaoxiao was only going to buy ten and not more, he thought she was afraid of spending money!
