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

Chapter 267 The Bustle of the Capital

Liu Jing asked: "Is the weapon you are talking about a crossbow?"

Liu Xiaoxiao nodded. "Yes, it's a crossbow. Since we are all farmers, it is impossible for us to have any good weapons. It just so happens that we have made this crossbow before, so it is not difficult to make a few more now."

"Besides, don't they have powder in their hands? Since we can't attack them at close range, can't we attack them from a distance? And this crossbow happens to be the best weapon to restrain them."

Liu Jing agreed after hearing this and said, "Okay, your idea is very good. I will go tell your grandfather about it right away."

Grandma Liu quickly pulled his sleeve and said, "Wait a minute, now that we have a way to deal with the enemy, can we old ladies stay here?"

Liu Jing pulled back his sleeves and begged for mercy, "Mom, let's talk about this after we finish discussing it!"

Grandma Liu knew that he really couldn't make the decision on his own, so she let him go.

Unlike Liu Xiaoxiao, where the whole village is in a tense atmosphere, the capital city, thousands of miles away, is now very lively.

Not to mention anything else, just the auspicious fruit that Liu Chenfeng brought back with great difficulty is now sold to the point where it is known throughout the city.

Of course, if we really want to talk about this, the publicity he did in advance by sending letters via carrier pigeons is indispensable!

Ever since Liu Chenfeng bought up all the auspicious fruit, he'd already thought it might sell well in the capital. But looking at the current booming sales downstairs, he asked his friend uncertainly, "Hey! Tianbang, are they... all lining up to buy the fruit? Am I selling the fruit too cheap? Why are there so many people?"

Xie Tianzong rolled his eyes and said speechlessly, "You're already selling them for five taels of silver each, and you still think they're cheap? Don't tell me you have some misunderstanding about the word cheap!"

Liu Chenfeng waved his hand and said again, "No, I mean, when did our capital city produce so many rich people? Even this fruit that costs five taels of silver can attract so many people to buy it?"

Xie Tianzong was not quite sure about this question. Just then, a waiter holding a tray passed by outside their private room, so he waved to him and asked him to come in.

The other party obviously knew him, so he nodded and asked directly when he came in, "I wonder what instructions Mr. Xie has for me."

Xie Tianzong didn't waste any words and pointed directly at Liu Chenfeng's shop across the street and asked, "Do you know why there are so many people there?"

The waiter looked at Liu Chenfeng beside him in confusion, thinking, "Shouldn't you ask the shop owner in front of you about this? Why are you asking me?"

Although he was confused, he still had to answer what he had to answer, especially after seeing Liu Chenfeng wave his hand nonchalantly to indicate that he could speak, he answered Xie Tianzong's questions even faster.

He straightened his back slightly and explained, "Those people you're talking about are basically lining up because they heard about this new exotic fruit called the Lucky Fruit that just appeared in our city!"

Yang Wen asked in confusion, "Isn't it just a fruit? Why is it worth so many people buying it?"

Speaking of this, the waiter glanced at Liu Chenfeng with some curiosity, and then said based on what he had heard, "I heard from other customers that the fruit seems to have certain healing properties, so many wealthy families have sent people to inquire about its authenticity."

Seeing that he looked at him every few words, Liu Chenfeng asked, "You don't actually believe that the fruit can really cure diseases, right?"

The waiter subconsciously wanted to nod, but then he realized that the person asking him this question was not an ordinary customer. If he expressed his doubts so directly, the other party would not complain to his own boss afterwards!
