My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.

Chapter 541 Once we figure out her secret, we will definitely not let her go.

When the tomatoes were auctioned earlier, Minister Yan and his son failed to get any. This time, when the cucumbers were auctioned, the two of them managed to get a few pounds.

More than the cucumbers themselves, the two were drawn to the plastic wrap that was packaging them.

They noticed it when the man next to them took a picture of the tomato. The tomato was in a white box with a transparent film on top.

They had never seen either the white box or the transparent film on it before.

He tried to touch it, but the man next to him warily avoided him and wouldn't let him touch it.

This time they finally managed to snag one.

The two men picked up the cucumbers and immediately began to examine them.

The father and son studied it for a long time, but they still couldn't figure out what the transparent membrane was.

At this moment, the television on stage started playing the video again.

This video is quite long and features a variety of dishes. In addition to cauliflower, eggplant, and onions, there are also carrots, lettuce, and peppers.

Ji Yunshuang originally did not intend to auction off these vegetables.

However, Qiu Shan thought that since an auction was already being held, it might as well be a big one. He decided to auction off all the vegetables that they had never seen before.

This is a good opportunity to let more people know about vegetables they have never seen before.

As for ordinary people who can't afford the auctioned vegetables, they can buy cabbage and radishes. Cabbage and radishes are inexpensive and are specifically intended to ensure people's basic needs are met.

Ji Yunshuang thought about it and decided that this would work.

Jingyang City is now home to many merchants who travel far and wide to conduct business. This makes it easier for them to spread information to other places, which will allow them to better promote the seeds later.

Yan Shangshu and his son quickly forgot about what the transparent membrane wrapping the cucumber was and their attention was soon drawn to the television on the stage.

The video was a bit long, but no one seemed impatient.

Everyone was completely captivated by the television on stage.

Even after the video finished playing, everyone still felt a little unsatisfied. But soon, everyone became excited again.

According to usual practice, this is the time when new vegetables should be auctioned off.

Many people have tasted the tomatoes and cucumbers and are quite satisfied with them. Everyone is curious about what vegetables will be auctioned next.

The first items offered on the small cart were cauliflower and eggplant.

Qiu Shanxian first introduced the two vegetables before starting the auction. However, before the auction, he specifically reminded everyone, "Both of these vegetables must be cooked before eating. You can't just eat them raw like you did before!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of laughter erupted from below.

Someone shouted, "Mayor Qiu, they've all eaten their fill, and I haven't bought anything yet! This time, you must let me buy something!"

"Yes, yes, this time we have to be given a chance."

……

Everyone joined in the cheering, and the atmosphere was fantastic.

Minister Yan looked at those smiling faces, but his heart was heavy. Everything had exceeded his expectations.

Ji Yunshuang is this person...

He underestimated his opponent before.

She's even more capable than I imagined.

They couldn't act rashly any longer; he had to find a way to get these messages to His Majesty. Thinking this, he secretly gestured a signal to his son to stop the operation.

Upon receiving his father's signal, Yan Xin didn't ask any further questions and quickly and discreetly relayed the message.

At the same time, the people arranged by Ji Yunshuang were also keeping an eye on the situation at the venue.

A plainly dressed, ordinary-looking man, the kind of person who wouldn't stand a glance in a crowd, quietly approached Qiu Yuan and said:

"Sir, we've discovered people communicating using coded signals in the meeting hall. They were very discreet, but we still managed to spot them. However, because they're using coded signals, we don't know what they're exchanging. Should we act now and arrest them?"

Qiu Yuan said, "Don't take any action for now. Keep an eye on them and see who their superiors are."

"Yes!" the man said, then quietly left and disappeared into the crowd.

In the bustling hall, everyone was drawn to the vegetables being auctioned on stage, and no one noticed the undercurrents beneath the surface.

On stage, as eggplants, cauliflowers, onions, and other vegetables were sold one by one, the auction, named after novel vegetables, was drawing to a close.

Ji Yunshuang took out quite a few vegetables from her spatial storage, but unfortunately there were just too many people at the venue today.

Moreover, some people even grabbed several portions at a time.

Therefore, after the auction, many people who wanted to buy the item were unable to do so.

Hearing that all the vegetables had been auctioned off, many people looked disappointed and asked loudly, "Will there be another auction tomorrow?"

"If there's an auction tomorrow, I'll come again."

"Could more auctions like this be held in the future?"

……

People shouted that they hoped there would be more auctions like this in the future. Merchants who couldn't leave the city due to the closed gates were also in no hurry.

How interesting is this?

Why bother going anywhere else?

As for the high price of these vegetables, many people don't seem to care.

Even those who bought a lot today only spent a few dozen taels of silver.

For ordinary people, a few dozen taels of silver is indeed a lot. But for wealthy people who spend lavishly and readily spend hundreds of taels on calligraphy and paintings, it is merely the money they usually use to tip their servants.

But today they saw something new and even bought something new.

Worth it!

On stage, Qiu Shan held the microphone, smiling as he looked at the audience. When the atmosphere reached its peak, he said, "Everyone, please don't rush."

"It's clear that everyone really likes the vegetables that His Majesty the Immortal Lord sent. However, these vegetables are from His Majesty's Immortal Realm, and the journey there is quite long... His Majesty the Immortal Lord is very busy and can't always go back to his hometown to help everyone carry vegetables, can he?"

Many people who heard Qiu Shan's words felt that they had committed a grave act of rebellion.

How could they possibly ask the gods to return to their celestial realm and fetch vegetables to sell to them?

If there hadn't been too many people at the scene, making it inconvenient to kneel, many people would have wanted to kneel down and admit their mistakes.

"However, His Majesty the Immortal Lord has always been concerned about everyone," Qiu Shan said. "In order for everyone to be able to eat these vegetables in the future, His Majesty the Immortal Lord brought seeds from the Immortal Realm."

After spring arrives, everyone should plant the vegetables according to the method taught by His Majesty the Immortal. Once the vegetables are ripe, everyone will be able to eat them.

Upon hearing this, everyone expressed their gratitude to Ji Yunshuang, saying that she was the true chosen one, a good emperor who genuinely cared for the people.

Some people even said that it was their good fortune to meet such a wonderful immortal.

Some people, recalling recent events, began to condemn those who spread rumors in the city and plotted to harm Fu Ci.

To avoid arousing suspicion, Minister Yan and his son could only join the crowd in praising Ji Yunshuang before vehemently cursing themselves.

Minister Yan felt he had never been so frustrated in his life, and he was filled with resentment.

He thought to himself that once he figured out Ji Yunshuang's secret, he would definitely arrest her and vent his anger for today.
