Both He Feng and Cao Guangzhi felt that the lunch was worth it. After interacting with them, Xia Ruofei felt that the two of them were quite straightforward. Perhaps it was because they weren't very successful in their careers, so they didn't have many bad habits.
Xia Ruofei felt that the two of them were quite compatible with him, so he drank quite a bit during lunch.
When the lunch was almost over, He Feng quietly got up and left the room. He went straight to the cashier.
"Lotus Pond Moonlight Room, please," He Feng said to the beautiful female cashier as he handed over his credit card.
The female cashier smiled and said, "Sir, the bill for Lotus Pond Moonlight Room has already been paid."
He Feng's eyes widened and said, "Already paid? That's impossible! Is there a mistake? "
The cashier had a charming smile on her face and said, "There's no mistake, sir. Mr Xia has already paid for Lotus Pond Moonlight Room …"
"Mr Xia?" He Feng paused and said, "I know, thank you …"
He took his credit card and walked back.
When He Feng returned to the room, Xia Ruofei was chatting with Cao Guangzhi.
He Feng yelled as soon as he entered the room, "Ruofei! That's not very nice of you! "
Xia Ruofei was confused. He smiled and said, "Mayor He, I didn't do anything. Every time you toast to me, I'll drink with one glass! I've never cheated before! "
Cao Guangzhi also joked, "Old He, could it be that you've taken a liking to some waitress, but Ruofei beat you to it?"
After an entire afternoon of drinking, Cao Guangzhi and He Feng had become much closer, so their conversation was much more casual than before.
He Feng smiled bitterly, "Director Cao, with my looks, how can I be Ruo Fei's opponent if I really want to snatch a girl?"
Xia Ruofei and Cao Guangzhi couldn't help but laugh out loud. The two beautiful waitresses who stayed in the room couldn't help but chuckle as well. Their beautiful eyes frequently looked at Xia Ruofei.
After laughing, Xia Ruofei asked, "Mayor He, you haven't told me what's going on! Why are you criticizing me so harshly after coming back from a trip? "
He Feng glared at him and pretended to be angry, "You're still talking about it! Didn't I say I was the host today? Why did you sneak out and pay for the bill? Do you think I can't afford to treat you to a drink? "
"I paid for the bill?" Xia Ruofei was stunned.
But he immediately understood what was going on and he smiled bitterly and said, "Old Zheng …"
Then, Xia Ruofei turned his head and said to the waitress, "Can I trouble you to call Mr. Zheng over?"
"Okay, please wait a moment!" One of the waitresses, who was tall and slender, immediately walked out of the room and contacted Mr. Zheng through the walkie-talkie.
He Feng also noticed that something was wrong and asked, "What? You didn't pay for the bill? "
Xia Ruofei spread his hands and said, "Of course not! I'm a stingy person. You said you'd pay for the meal today! "
Cao Guangzhi also laughed and said, "Interesting, interesting …"
Soon, Xijiangyue's Mr. Zheng came to the room and said with a smile, "Boss Xia, two leaders, are you done drinking today?"
Xia Ruofei purposely said with a straight face, "Mr. Zheng, what's with the bill?"
Mr. Zheng smiled and said, "Boss Xia, I told the front desk to waive the bill. It's rare for you to come to our clubhouse and the two leaders are honored guests. You want to charge for such a simple meal? Isn't this a slap in my face? "
He Feng and Cao Guangzhi looked at each other and were secretly shocked.
They knew very well that Xijiangyue Clubhouse was not an ordinary restaurant. There was a membership system here. Although the entry threshold was not as high as the top clubhouses in Beijing, it was still not a place where just anyone could come in.
Moreover, He Feng had accompanied some leaders here before and he had never seen Mr. Zheng personally tell them to waive the bill.
Xia Ruofei's face was really big!
Xia Ruofei smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "But Mayor He is the host today. I'm just here to freeload …"
He Feng quickly said, "Yes, yes! Mr. Zheng, you're not giving me a chance to suck up to Ruofei! That's not right … "
Mr. Zheng quickly smiled and said, "Mayor He, I just want to express my sincerity! Just don't do it again, just don't do it again … "
Then, Mr. Zheng changed the topic and said, "Besides, Boss Xia is the host this time. It's a chance for you to treat Boss Xia back next time! I promise to only give you a VIP discount next time. It won't be free! Also, I'll definitely reserve the Lotus Pond Moonlight Room for you! "
Chief Zheng was indeed a smooth businessman. He Feng immediately beamed with joy after hearing what he had to say.
What Mr. Zheng said made sense. Since it was Xia Ruofei's treat this time, it was a good reason for He Feng to treat him back.
Huaxia was a social society. Didn't the friendship between people gradually deepen through banquets and exchanges?
Therefore, He Feng said, "You said it! If I can't get the Lotus Pond Moonlight Room next time, I'll look for you directly! "
"No problem!" Mr. Zheng said straightforwardly.
Cao Guangzhi also smiled and said, "Mr. He, don't forget to invite me next time when you treat!"
He Feng said happily, "Of course, of course!"
After the small episode of paying the bill, Xia Ruofei and the others were almost done drinking. Therefore, they called Mr. Zheng to drink a glass of reunion wine with everyone and ended the drinking party.
He Feng and Cao Guangzhi both had drivers. They also enthusiastically said that they would send Xia Ruofei back to the farm. After drinking so much in the afternoon, they definitely couldn't drive.
However, Xia Ruofei didn't want to leave his car at the clubhouse because he had to go to Song Qiming's house tomorrow morning to treat Song Wei. Therefore, he politely declined their good intentions.
Xia Ruofei asked Mr. Zheng to prepare a guest room for him in the clubhouse. After sending He Feng and Cao Guangzhi off, he went straight to the guest room to rest.
In fact, with Xia Ruofei's current alcohol tolerance, the amount of alcohol he drank in the afternoon was no problem for him to drive. However, he didn't want to get into trouble for no reason. After all, if he was checked for drunk driving, the alcohol content would definitely exceed the limit if he blew.
However, his body was far stronger than the average person. This amount of alcohol wouldn't have any effect on his mind at all.
Mr. Zheng very attentively asked someone to prepare sobering tea in the room. After Xia Ruofei returned to his room, he drank the tea and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
Nowadays, Sanshan City had become a hot and humid city. It was different from the dry and hot weather in the north. As long as he moved a little, he would definitely be covered in sweat.
In the summer, it was quite normal to take three or four showers a day.
The room was air-conditioned and maintained a constant temperature of about 24 degrees Celsius. After taking a shower, Xia Ruofei lay down and fell into a deep sleep.
Xia Ruofei woke up around five in the afternoon. Mr. Zheng warmly invited Xia Ruofei to have dinner and wait for the weather to cool down before going back. However, Xia Ruofei politely declined. He greeted Mr. Zheng and left the clubhouse in his Knight XV.
This was because when Xia Ruofei woke up, Xia Qing in the Ring-Tu space communicated with him through Divine Telekinesis. The caterpillar fungus in the Archean Realm had already grown purplish-red grass heads.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei was in a hurry to return home. How could he be in the mood to stay for dinner?
Xia Ruofei drove under the speed limit and returned to the farm in half an hour.
After parking the car in the villa's courtyard, Xia Ruofei was not in the mood to play with Lightning and Xiao Hei in the courtyard. He quickly walked into the house.
Huzi's mother, who was preparing dinner, heard the sound and poked her head out of the open kitchen. When she saw Xia Ruofei, she hurriedly asked, "Ruofei, you're back? How's Nannan's enrollment? "
Xia Ruofei walked up the stairs and said, "The procedures are all done! Just report to school on the first day! "
Huzi's mother said loudly, "Ruofei! Dinner will be ready in ten minutes. Remember to come down and eat! "
"Got it, Godmother!"
Xia Ruofei was already upstairs when he said this. Huzi's mother could not help but shake her head and say with a smile, "This child! He's usually quite steady. Why is he in such a hurry today … "
After Xia Ruofei returned to his room, he immediately locked the doors and windows and pulled the curtains. Then, he summoned the Spiritual Map Scroll from his palm and entered the space with a thought.
Xia Qing was waiting in the Primordial Realm. When he saw Xia Ruofei, he hurriedly greeted him respectfully, "Master!"
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "How's the worm stalk?"
"The quality should be very high!" Xia Qing said, "But you didn't come back, so I didn't dig for it …"
"Let's go and take a look together …" Xia Ruofei said.
The two of them came to the side of the Spatial Spirit Pool. There were two plastic boxes, one big and one small. The orange one was for breeding reticulated abalones, and the smaller one was for breeding worm stalks.
The smaller one was compared to the plastic box for breeding abalones. In fact, the one here was quite big. It was the largest plastic sorting box in the space. It was 1.5 meters long, 1 meter wide, and 1 meter deep.
The top of the plastic sorting box was covered with a layer of gauze. Xia Ruofei could see through the gauze that the surface of the soil in the sorting box was covered with dense purplish-red grass. At a glance, it looked like a purple carpet.
Xia Ruofei had learned a lot about caterpillar fungus during this period of time. He knew that under every blade of grass was a caterpillar fungus.
In this small area, there were at least a few hundred caterpillars.
This density was quite frightening. If the Gesang father and son saw it, they would definitely think it was a miracle.
It had to be known that traditional Naqu grass-gatherers would spend a long time searching for a caterpillar fungus on a hillside four to five thousand meters above sea level. If they could find a second caterpillar fungus within a few meters, they would be considered quite lucky.
For there to be hundreds of caterpillar fungus growing in such a small area was simply unimaginable.
Not all the bat moth larvae were infected with the caterpillar fungus. Some lucky larvae grew up healthily and became bat moths. They attached themselves to the gauze or stayed between the blades of grass.
Xia Ruofei got Xia Qing to find an empty plastic sorting box. Then, the two of them carefully opened the gauze and transferred the bat moths in the sorting box into the sorting box. They also covered the box with the gauze.
In the Mountain Sea Realm, there were still two acres of land that Xia Ruofei had fenced off for breeding worm stalks. However, without the enhancement of the flow of time, the effects of the breeding couldn't be seen for the time being.
These bat moths could still be placed in the Mountain Sea Realm.
Of course, this was only one of the reasons. More importantly, it wouldn't be a problem if they were allowed to fly around in the Archean Realm. Furthermore, the environment in this space was so unique. They would definitely reproduce very quickly. When the time came, it would be a small problem.
After carefully transferring all the bat moths to another plastic sorting box, Xia Ruofei got Xia Qing to begin harvesting the caterpillar fungus.
Although Xia Ruofei had read a lot of information regarding the caterpillar fungus, he had never put it into practice. The professional matters were left to the professionals. Xia Qing's' database 'had ready-made information regarding the harvesting of a precious herb like the caterpillar fungus.
Xia Qing had already prepared a small and exquisite shovel. He carefully dug down from the outermost layer. His movements were very gentle, afraid that he would damage the caterpillar fungus under the soil.
The soil was very soft. Soon, Xia Qing dug out a caterpillar fungus.
Then, Xia Qing picked up a soft brush and carefully cleaned the soil on the surface of the caterpillar fungus. A huge caterpillar fungus appeared in front of Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei took it and took a look. From the size, the caterpillar fungus was much thicker than the Rank 1 grass he had bought from Ge Sang some time ago. It felt heavy in his hand.
Xia Qing also put down his tools and came over. He said in pleasant surprise, "Master, this caterpillar fungus is of extremely high quality! Congratulations, Master! "
Following that, Xia Qing pointed at the caterpillar fungus and explained, "Master, please take a look! The surface of the caterpillar fungus is very yellow, and the whole body is translucent and glossy. The ring pattern is very clear, '3 narrow and 1 wide.' Among the 8 pairs of legs, 4 pairs in the middle are very obvious, while the other 3 pairs have basically degenerated. You can also see the brownish-red eyes on the head. The color of the caterpillar fungus is also very pure … "
Following that, Xia Qing leaned closer and sniffed hard. He said in pleasant surprise, "Even the rich butter fragrance is still preserved! It's even more authentic than the most authentic Caterpillar fungus … "
Xia Ruofei said happily, "Xia Qing, it seems that my method of bringing the plateau vegetation, soil, and caterpillar fungus mycelium into the space is feasible."
Xia Qing nodded and said, "Yes! The characteristics of the Caterpillar fungus are all preserved. Moreover, the environment of the Ling-Tu world is obviously better than the outside world, so the quality of the caterpillar fungus has also been greatly improved! "
"Then, will the medicinal properties of the caterpillar fungus also be improved?" Xia Ruofei asked.
"That's for sure!" Xia Qing said proudly, "This caterpillar fungus is definitely a treasure in the secular world. Even if a cultivator consumes it, it will still have extraordinary effects!"
Xia Ruofei laughed happily when he heard this. He had finally not wasted his time going to Tibet.
Apart from the difference in the flow of time between the Archean Realm and the Mountain Sea Realm, the overall environment and spiritual energy density were basically the same. Therefore, if he could successfully cultivate high-grade caterpillar fungus in the Archean Realm, it was only a matter of time before the caterpillar fungus in the Mountain Sea Realm matured.
Now, the only question Xia Ruofei was concerned about was the grade of the caterpillar fungus he cultivated this time.
Apart from the above characteristics, another important factor to determine the grade of the caterpillar fungus was its weight.
On average, if 2000 caterpillar fungus weighed 1 kilogram, it would be a first-grade grass. In the outside world, first-grade grass was sold for hundreds of thousands per kilogram.
If a single caterpillar fungus was heavier, it would be even more priceless. The price would be even higher.
