Chapter 763: Did You Do this on Purpose?

On the first day of the opening of the supermarket in Beijing, some ordinary people were shocked by the price.
The things sold were really too expensive!
With 100 RMB, one could buy a bunch of stuff at the wet market, but at the supermarket, you could only buy one thing.
Most of the vegetables and fruits at the supermarket were sold in individual units. Only a few were sold in catties, such as rice, corn, and so on.
Of course, prices were relative. Those rich and powerful people didn’t think that these things were expensive. After all, they had money. They would pay for anything if they were the best.
Before the appearance of the Taoyuan Village Green Fresh brand, foreign brands were their choice. Those foreign products were even more expensive!
Before Green Fresh opened its chain in the capital, these rich families would send their maids to other cities to go grocery shopping every day.
Now that Green Fresh had opened a chain in the capital, they naturally had to take advantage of this. They sent their maids to the new chain early in the morning.
Therefore, while ordinary people complained that the prices were high, everything was sold old before noon.
On the first floor, there were vegetables and grains.
On the second floor, there were fruits from Taoyuan village. There were all kinds of fruits.
On the third floor, there were some manufactured goods from Taoyuan Village, like peanut oil, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, all kinds of brewing wine, fruit wine, and so on.
As the stuff was swept off the shelves, the ordinary people were dumbfounded.
‘Are these things free? Otherwise, why are these people taking them like they are free?’ Normal people like them couldn’t even bring themself to buy cabbage or corn. It was too expensive!
Old Master Li and Old Master Leng walked around the supermarket with the Xiao family and Old master Gong in high spirits. When they saw the red and glossy sweet potatoes, old master Li’s eyes lit up. He pointed at the sweet potatoes and said, “Old Gong, why didn’t you tell me that Lingyu’s shop has so many things on offer? I didn’t know that the shop had sweet potatoes. You know how much I love to eat sweet potatoes!”
Old Master Gong glanced at him and said indifferently, “You didn’t ask. Plus, haven’t you been sending people out of the city to purchase groceries from Yu ‘Er’s other supermarket? You should know what kind of vegetables and fruits are on offer.” Then, Old master Gong pointed to a rack of rice and said, “Oh, they have rice here too. I’m sure your family eats rice too. You should buy some. Don’t blame me for not telling you this time.”
When Old Master Li heard this, he shivered from anger. “Old Gong, you are doing this on purpose, aren’t you?”
Old Master Gong said indifferently, “What do you think?”
Old Master Li, “…”
Everyone, “…”
The few old masters bickered without stopping along the way. When they reached the shop, they also had to argue.
Old Master Leng looked around and said with a smile, “Ol Li, it looks like we have to take a good look around to see if there are any more things we need to buy. Then, we can have Lingyu reserve them for us. Is that okay, Lingyu?”
Xiao Lingyu smiled, “Of course. Just tell me what you like and what you need. I’ll get someone to reserve it for you.”
Old Master Li immediately nodded in satisfaction and said, “Lingyu is really clever. Grandpa Li approves!”
Old master Gong immediately retorted, “Old Li, Yu ‘Er is my granddaughter-in-law. She doesn’t need your approval!” Then, he turned to Xiao Lingyu and said, “Yu ‘Er, don’t feel pressured. You can always say no. The entire Gong family is supporting you.”
Xiao Lingyu, “…”
Everyone, “…”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Alright, I understand, grandfather!”
Gong Tianhao shook her hand and revealed a helpless smile as he whispered into Xiao Lingyu’s ear, “Grandpa and Grandpa Li have been bickering ever since they were young. This shows how close they are.” They were comrades-in-arms, and their friendship from the battlefield lasted until now.
Xiao Lingyu nodded slightly and said, “Okay, I got it!”
Old Master Li ignored Old Master Gong and looked around. He found that the supermarket had everything.
Old master Li picked a few things that he wanted to buy, and Xiao Lingyu immediately asked the waiter to pack them.
Old Master Leng also picked out a few things to buy.
After shopping on the first floor, the group went up to the second floor.
The second floor was mainly filled with fruits. There were all kinds of fruits, from the south, the north, the tropics, the temperate, and all kinds of fruits from different regions.
Once they reached the second floor, Old Master Li and Leng’s eyes lit up.
Old Master Li asked in surprise, “Lingyu, are all these fruits produced in Taoyuan Village?”
Xiao Lingyu nodded, “Yes, Grandpa Li!”
Old Master Li pointed at the two fruits and asked in surprise, “This is an apple, and this is a pomelo, right? One needs a cold climate, and the other is a tropical fruit. How can they come from the same place?
“Plus, if I’m not mistaken, Taoyuan Village is located in the south of China. How could you even grow apples there? They look prettier than the ones grown in the north.”
Before Xiao Lingyu could say anything, Old Master Gong immediately rebuked, “Why do you care how Yu ‘Er grows them? My Yu ‘Er has the ability to grow things that others can’t. So, what’s so strange about growing apples and pomelo in the same place?”
Old Master Li, “…”
Everyone, “…”
‘It’s quite strange, alright.’ Of course, no one said this out loud.
“Besides, since my Yu ‘Er can grow such special vegetables, why can’t she grow these unique fruits?” Old Master Gong added.
Old Master Li, who had been friends with Old Master Gong for decades, immediately understood that there must be some secret behind this.
Since it was a secret, it was definitely not convenient for him to reveal it.
Old Master Li didn’t pursue the matter any further.
He just clicked his tongue and praised the fruits. At the same time, he bought a large pile of fruits.
