Her Cultivation Diary
Chapter 596 - Chapter 596 596. Human feelings are just newcomers_1

Chapter 596: 596. Human feelings are just newcomers_1 Chapter 596: 596. Human feelings are just newcomers_1 Don’t even mention satisfaction; Yunyun’s eyes were about to pop out of her head!

Outrageous!

She was an old hand at shopping on PeachPeach, so she definitely wouldn’t misunderstand the prices she saw now, but seriously, a whole store selling nothing but straw mats?

Those items listed at 99999, if you clicked on any one of them and pulled up the details, you’d see a huge pinned red headline up top–

[We’re out of stock, totally out of stock! Even if you buy at 99999, there’s nothing! On the contrary, we’ll need to issue a refund, making our already busy customer service even busier, delaying new product launches… dear, do you have the heart to do this?

Customer service is away for the summer holidays; please shop on your own, thanks for understanding.

If there are new products launched, all the detailed explanations will also be put on the detail page, so please shop on your own and don’t ask customer service, as there won’t be anyone to answer.

Our small customer service team is painfully on their summer vacation, because as good as holidays are, they can’t enjoy these goodies…]

Zhang Yanping had written this statement in the car before she left, because Song Tan really tended to ignore the backend, or if she saw it, she’d be too lazy to reply!

Remembering she had to go home, Zhang Yanping felt a surge of sorrow, hence she penned such a peculiar statement.

And so, Yunyun grew even more infuriated–

What kind of trashy store is this?

Everyone knows a price like 99999 isn’t right; who’s going to buy it? Is this kind of statement really necessary?

Plus, you are PeachPeach customer service, not PeachPeach college students; what summer holiday are you on? This is downright absurd!

Muttering to herself, Yunyun then heard her dad urging, “Stop looking at the straw mat, we have some at home, we’re not buying those! Go back and let me watch the livestream, they’re brewing liquor right now!”

…

Meanwhile, the distiller was operating, and the tiny measuring cup underneath had started to slowly collect the water droplets trickling down from above.

Seventh Uncle was providing commentary by the side: “This is the first run of liquor, with the highest purity, similar to alcohol; it’s undrinkable, so let’s keep it separate.”

In his hand, he also held a large measuring cup: “After the initial distillation, we’ll use this one, we discard the head and tail and only keep the middle, that’s the good stuff!”

He took a deep breath of the wisps of alcohol scent in the air, a look of utter bliss on his face: “Ah, we’ll need to prepare a couple of appetizers for lunch!”

Song Youde, his pipe still hanging from his belt, couldn’t help but pace back and forth: “Such a large vat, it’s going to take a while to distill, right? How much liquor will we get?”

It smelt so good, incredibly good!

Just smelling it made him want to open up the bottle of Moutai that Secretary Xiaozu had brought over! After all, he’s a true farmer, never in his life had he tasted such fine spirits; he didn’t even know what a good drink was.

Seventh Uncle was filled with anticipation and a touch of smug pride–such a fine product, and if he hadn’t suggested distilling alcohol, it might have just gone to feeding pigs.

This family really couldn’t do without him!

He puffed out his chest even more: “Liquor is the essence of grain! It’s expensive to produce! These three hundred pounds of sorghum, at best, will yield a hundred pounds of liquor.”

Song Sancheng pondered for a moment and couldn’t help but break into a hearty laugh: “A hundred pounds is quite a lot, our family might not even be able to finish it.”

Their family, well, they could enjoy a small drink, but none of them were heavy drinkers, and they all had pretty low alcohol tolerance, two liangs per meal was about the limit, any more than that would be trouble.

Seventh Uncle had a slightly better capacity for alcohol, but being older and knowing how to look after himself, he hadn’t drunk in many years.

Song Tan wasn’t interested, but she knew the value of good liquor; she quickly chimed in: “No problem, I’ll buy some liquor jars later. Anything we can’t finish, we’ll reseal and store in the cellar, the longer it’s kept, the better it tastes.”

When an occasion arises, just hand it over–hey, let’s see who won’t be tempted!

Over here, Seventh Uncle was still going on and on:

“You guys really need to plant more of this sorghum next year. This wine isn’t just for brewing sorghum liquor. With this year’s starter wine, you can even brew green peach wine next year.”

“Our home-brewed rice wine is so delicious; just imagine how tasty this will be! If you run into centipedes or snakes while crossing the mountains, you can use it to make medicinal liquor too. It’s really effective for treating rheumatism and injuries…”

Alright, alright! The land’s spacious, anyway. Song Tan was agreeing to everything at this point.

After chatting for a while, they noticed that Professor Song was still silent.

Just as Song Tan was about to ask for his opinion, he turned his head, his eyes shimmering brilliantly, his cheeks flushed red, looking excited, yet somewhat embarrassed:

“This wine… this wine…”

“Let me say it for you, Teacher!” Tai Xiaodong was immediately animated!

“Song Tan, truth be told, our teacher doesn’t have many hobbies. He just loves to enjoy a couple of drinks in his free time.”

Qi Lin couldn’t help but laugh, “It’s literally just a couple of drinks because any more and he’d be drunk.”

Yan Ran added with a wink and a nudge, “My teacher is too shy to say it, but he just wants some of your family’s wine!”

And then he quickly emphasized, “Not for free, not for free–”

This time, before he could finish, Professor Song, excited, interjected, “Don’t you want a batch of apple trees? I’ve got that sorted for you! And those vegetable seedlings and grains and everything, I’ll get them for you, and you won’t have to spend a penny!”

All it would take was an exchange for this wine.

Song Tan burst into laughter.

She wondered why interacting so much with the land and students made one become so much more straightforward.

Even if Professor Song hadn’t made a fuss, she would have gladly given the wine she had intended to send. With honest people, you need to use honest methods; you have to put kindness first. You can’t just start scrambling when you suddenly need a favor, right?

With a grand wave of her hand, she said, “Don’t worry, ten pounds of wine, you won’t miss a drop.”

“As for Yan Ran and the rest of you, two pounds each! You’ve seen, with my three hundred pounds of sorghum, I can only make about a hundred pounds of wine, so there really isn’t much to give away.”

A hundred pounds of wine, sending out sixteen for the four of them, what more could they ask for?

Tai Xiaodong and the others were nearly moved to tears!

Although they weren’t necessarily wine enthusiasts, just as Song Tan had thought, in today’s society where relationships matter, a good wine sent out can also bring a lot of conveniences when a helping hand is needed, especially now when good wine is exorbitantly priced.

And recalling the flavor of those previous offerings and inhaling the fragrance of wine in the air, the three exchanged glances, feeling even more confident that following their teacher was the right choice.

No wonder the teacher had said before they left for the countryside that it was these human connections that brought them here.

–Yes! How solid must the connection be, how great must the favor be, for someone to have recommended this place to them? It’s practically a sacred, treasure-filled land, wuu wuu wuu…

True to the teacher’s reputation, his networking was indeed formidable!

…

Secretary Xiaozu, who had been busy making connections and introductions, suddenly turned aside and, covering her face with a tissue, let out two hefty sneezes!

She held her teacup, took a delicate sip, and finally let out a deep sigh–

Ah, when can I go back after attending this meeting in the city? I haven’t eaten a meal from Lao Song’s family for days… I’m so craving it! So very craving!

Meanwhile, next to her, two people with stern expressions were busy sending messages–

[I heard she’s got connections in Imperial City! Have you smelled that tea? Its fragrance is strong even from afar… It must be exclusively supplied, right? Definitely exclusively supplied!]
