The daughter was ruthlessly driven out of the wealthy family and went to the countryside

tea garden.

The second batch of tea leaves was picked today. The tender green tea buds look fresh and beautiful. Even before they are made into tea, you can already feel their quality.

Shen Xuening held a meeting at the company and then went straight to the tea garden. It's only around nine o'clock now.

Everyone was busy picking tea leaves. Some part-time jobs had been hired, including Ji Xun and her roommate. It was their first time picking tea leaves, and they were filled with excitement.

Zhou Fu was also busy picking tea, so when Shen Xuening arrived, no one knew that she had been picking tea leaves in the tea garden for several minutes before they noticed her.

She picked tea leaves to promote the tea, advertise it, and also to shoot videos. There were too many tea leaves, and only half of the first batch was sold, leaving the other half.

Although only half of them have been sold, it's already quite good compared to others. New orders are being generated every day, and it's only a matter of time before they're all sold out.

Zhou Fu walked quickly towards Shen Xuening: "President Shen, I didn't know you were coming, so..."

Shen Xuening didn't mind: "It's okay, you go ahead and do your thing. I'll call you if I need anything."

“Okay.” Zhou Fu was also very busy. After hearing what Shen Xuening said, he quickly went back to work. The best time to pick tea leaves is in the next few days, and all the tea leaves must be picked within these few days.

Like other tea-picking women, Shen Xuening put on an apron, hung a bamboo basket around her waist, picked the tea leaves with both hands, and put them into the basket.

When picking tea, the aroma of the tea leaves permeates the surrounding air so intensely that it refreshes the mind.

Shen Baohong gave the tea leaves several close-up shots: "This tea isn't as good as the one from March."

Shen Xuening said, "Of course, this is the second batch of tea leaves. It can't compare to the first batch. We can pick another batch in September."

Shen Baohong asked curiously, "Would the one in September be even better?"

Shen Xuening shook her head: "I don't know. This is also my first time dealing with tea. It will take a whole year to understand. I had someone make a record, and we will analyze it later."

Shen Baohong nodded: "That's true, this requires experience."

Shen Xuening spent half a day picking tea leaves here. She had also spent half a day picking tea leaves before, and through this experience, she gained a better understanding of tea.

"Let's go see the fish in the stream." Shen Xuening put the things next to the house by the tea garden, and then took Shen Baohong to the stream. She put some fish fry and a spirit stone in the stream. Logically, the fish should be ready to eat.

"I remember you told me before that you released fish fry into the stream?" Shen Baohong followed behind Shen Xuening.

“Yes, they should be all grown up by now,” Shen Xuening said.

“It’s only been a few months, and you haven’t fed it anything yet, so it probably isn’t growing very fast,” Shen Baohong said.

"Go and see for yourself." There are spirit stones in the water, which will attract aquatic creatures. These are the food for fish, and the spiritual energy has a growth-promoting effect. In theory, it's okay to catch them.

Shen Baohong stopped talking, saying he would find out soon enough.

When Shen Xuening arrived at the stream, she saw not schools of fish, but schools of tree frogs.

Shen Xuening took out her phone and scanned the tree frogs. They were large tree frogs with medicinal value, used for external bleeding, sprains, and fractures.

The tree frogs, which had been lying quietly on the ground on both sides of the stream, started hopping around when they heard the noise, and the quiet forest became lively.

"Let's take a look before we go." Shen Xuening stopped and looked ahead. There were not only tree frogs, but also many small animals drinking water by the stream. The stream was covered with footprints, indicating that many animals usually roamed here.

The magic stone has an exceptionally strong attraction for small animals.

Shen Baohong's mouth watered: "These tree frogs taste delicious. Let's catch some and take them home to eat."

Shen Xuening looked at Shen Baohong: "You've eaten there?"

Shen Baohong recalled: "I have eaten them. When I was a child, I would go to the woods to catch tree frogs after school. There were so many tree frogs, but as I grew up, they disappeared. I never expected there to be so many here."

Shen Xuening's mouth watered as she listened: "Then go find some tools, and we'll catch some to take home and eat."

"Okay, I'll go find it." Shen Baohong turned and went back.

Shen Xuening walked towards the stream.

The stream was overgrown with aquatic plants, and many fish lived among them, as if the fish had made the aquatic plants their home.

Shen Xuening looked around, then took out a spirit stone, squatted down, grabbed the spirit stone in her hand, and put it into the water. Soon, a school of fish gathered around.

With quick eyes and hands, Shen Xuening swiftly caught a fish. It didn't disappoint her; the fish weighed three or four pounds and was ready to eat.

It was a bluefish, very beautiful in appearance, no wonder it was nurtured by spiritual energy. Shen Xuening threw the bluefish into the group of tree frogs, which caused a chorus of frogs to jump.

One fish wasn't enough for the family, so Shen Xuening used the same trick again and caught four more fish.

When Shen Baohong arrived, he saw Shen Xuening catch the fourth fish: "You're amazing, you can actually catch fish with your bare hands."

Shen Xuening said confidently, "There are plenty of fish; you can catch one with just a few bites."

"Let me see." Shen Baohong walked to Shen Xuening's side and saw that the fish in the water had crowded together, as if the water was full of fish. "There are so many fish, and they all seem to have grown up."

Shen Xuening said, "I caught five fish. I'll take them all back with me and we'll eat them tonight."

"I'll catch the tree frogs first." Shen Baohong was clearly more interested in the tree frogs; after watching the fish for a while, he went to catch the tree frogs.

There were tree frogs everywhere, far more than fish. You could grab one with just a reach of your hand, and they were all very fat, practically all meat. Shen Baohong got happier and happier as he grabbed more and more: "I want to eat boiled tree frogs."

Shen Xuening helped by asking, "Do you know how to take care of it?"

"Yes, I've known how to cook it since I was little, but it might not taste as good. I'll have my third aunt cook it later if she has time," Shen Baohong said with a smile.

“If you ask, your third aunt will definitely agree,” Shen Xuening said.

"Hehe." Shen Baohong chuckled.

"Is it okay if I invite Ye Hongwei to have dinner with us?" Shen Xuening asked after thinking for a moment.

"Of course, no problem. Just tell him it's just a matter of having an extra pair of chopsticks." Shen Baohong was quite generous, especially when it came to helping his own family.

"Then I'll tell him." Shen Xuening took out her phone and sent a WeChat message to Ye Hongwei, "Stay for dinner tonight."

Ye Hongwei: "Is there something you need?"

Shen Xuening: "It's nothing, it's just that there's a new dish today that I'd like to invite you to try it."

Ye Hongwei was quite pleased: "Then I shall respectfully accept your offer."

Shen Xuening: "I'll call you then."

Ye Hongwei: "Okay."

The two caught a lot of tree frogs and took five fish with them. Before leaving, they told Zhou Fu to watch the stream and not let anyone catch fish.

Zhou Fu said he understood, and that no one was allowed to catch fish in the stream without Shen Xuening's permission.

However, the next day, Shen Xuening had Shen Donglai catch all the big fish in the stream. These big fish were just the right size to eat, so catching them would allow the smaller fish to grow.

There are many small fish in the stream, so there's no need to stock them with fish fry.

……

Shen Xuening returned from the tea garden and went straight to the tea-frying room.

The tea-frying room is divided into a tea-frying area and an office area. Shen Xuening went to the office area. Another month had passed, and she wanted to check on the tea sales.

After hearing Shen Xuening's purpose, Ke Li immediately handed the sales report to Shen Xuening: "President Shen."

Shen Xuening sat down on the sofa: "You go ahead with your work, I'll take a look and see."

"Okay." Ke Li sat down at the computer and got back to work.

Shen Xuening read the sales report from beginning to end. The sales volume in April was 21,000 jin, at 6,000 yuan per jin, totaling 126 million yuan. The reputation of the tea had been established, and more people were buying it, so it sold more than in March.

Even lower-grade tea sold more than in March, mainly because there were more individual sellers.

Many people come to buy tea leaves to make snacks, or they buy tea leaves directly to brew tea. Even the worst tea leaves are better than ordinary tea leaves and are favored by many people.

Overall, it's not bad.

Shen Xuening asked Ke Li, "Are you able to manage?"

Ke Li replied somewhat nervously, "I'm familiar with it now, I can manage."

Shen Xuening noticed Ke Li's nervousness and smiled, saying, "You can tell me anything you have, don't be afraid."

Ke Li nodded: "Understood, President Shen."

Shen Xuening left satisfied.

Ke Li watched Shen Xuening leave. After Shen Xuening had gone far away, she let out a deep breath. President Shen seemed to be getting more and more imposing, and her aura was so heavy.

After Shen Xuening was out of sight, Ke Li went to the tea-frying room. The freshly picked tea leaves had been delivered, and the tea masters were frying them quickly. The machines were running again, and the air was filled with a rich aroma of tea.

Since joining the company, she has been studying tea-related knowledge, and now she knows a lot about it.

Arriving at the tea-drying area, she reached out and grabbed a handful of tea leaves. The edges of the leaves were slightly hardened, and they felt a bit prickly when she squeezed them. These were considered half-dried and needed to be dried further.

When the tea leaves break easily when pinched, it means they are dried and ready for packaging.

She had been thinking of suggesting that Shen Xuening make a gift box, but she was afraid that Shen Xuening would disagree, so she hadn't submitted the idea yet.

Let's wait a bit longer. We'll make the suggestion after this batch of tea is harvested and we have some free time.

……

night.

Ye Hongwei arrived at Shen Xuening's house excitedly. Shen Xuening usually invited him to dinner, which meant there would be something fresh and delicious, so he was very much looking forward to it.

Just as he stepped into the courtyard, Shen Baohong's voice came over: "Brother Ye, it's better to be lucky than early. It's time to eat."

Ye Hongwei laughed and said, "I came here specifically for dinner, so I had to check the time first."

Shen Baohong said hospitably, "Haha, for you, I'll open a bottle of wine and have a drink."

Ye Hongwei asked with interest, "What kind of wine? If it's Duqing wine, I'll drink it, but I won't drink any other wines. I still have to drive back in a bit."

Shen Baohong immediately said, "Since you want to drink Duqing wine, I'll open a bottle for you. How about you sleep in my room later?"

Ye Hongwei waved his hand and refused, saying, "No, I'll stay at a guesthouse. Otherwise, people will laugh at me."
