After the contract was signed by both parties...

Chen Xuan took Zhou Yanhong to the fields. Looking at the lush green watermelons, each one big and full, he couldn't wait to break a few open and eat them...

"How did you grow these watermelons? Why are they fuller, juicier, more appetizing, and more irresistible than other watermelons..." Zhou Yanhong was very curious. She flicked a finger at a watermelon, and it burst open with a bang.

"Heh heh... it's an absolute trade secret, and I suspect you're driving," Chen Xuan rolled his eyes. This was the work of his Nuwa, and he would never reveal it.

"Sister Zhou... have you practiced this?" The beautiful secretary next to her, Jiang Xian'er, asked with a look of surprise.

"I'm an eighth-dan Taekwondo practitioner, I can kill a group of perverts with one punch, isn't that amazing?" Zhou Yanhong waved her hand, seemingly referring to her fists, which were as big as sandbags.

"Sister Zhou... stop bragging... those petty, effeminate pretty boys, I'm too embarrassed to even know you. Hurry up and pack the watermelons, we need to go back for lunch immediately," Jiang Xian'er reminded her, pushing up her glasses. She looked like a capable, strong woman.

"You..." Zhou Yanhong's past was exposed. This secretary was no good; she was the boss...

Jiang Xian'er was decisive and efficient. She had already prepared a truck and was heading directly to the Junyue Grand Hotel. Some villagers' eyes lit up; this truckload was worth at least a few thousand yuan. They were really going to strike it rich this time...

"Boss Zhou... remember to come and pick up the goods tomorrow!" Chen Xuan clapped his hands. He had to make sure they came to pick up the goods themselves, as agreed.

"Don't worry..." Zhou Yanhong nodded. She was a very generous beauty.

"Okay... I'll treat you to a meal when I have time," Chen Xuan said with a chuckle, but it was just a polite remark. Who knew if he'd actually have time?

"I'm serious..." Zhou Yanhong was not going to let this plan go. She didn't even give Chen Xuan a chance to refuse before getting into the car and leaving.

Time flew by, and it was almost noon...

At Chen Xuan's doorstep, a group of villagers were impatient. Seeing a large truckload of watermelons being transported, they had rushed over early, waiting for Chen Xuan to sign the contracts.

"Alright... today, with the old village chief as witness, I will act as the agent to purchase these twenty-plus mu of watermelons at two yuan per jin. Everyone just needs to press their thumbprint..."

Chen Xuan wrote a document and had everyone sign and press their thumbprints. It was all for stability, as people could turn against each other for money.

"I'll be first... haha..." The old village chief happily came forward and signed his name and thumbprint.

"And me..."

The rest scrambled to be the first to sign, eager to be the first. It was very lively. After all, with household contracting, one representative per household was enough to sign.

"Haha... Little Xuanzi, you've done a great job. You've boosted the village's development, and everyone will remember your good deeds."

The villagers were all smiling. They were practically ready to deify Chen Xuan. After all, two yuan per jin for watermelons, when the outside price was only three to four mao, was an enormous difference.

"We're all neighbors; we make money together," Chen Xuan said with a sheepish grin, scratching his head.

"Exactly... exactly... seeing the world makes a difference."

After a few flattering words from the villagers, they went to buy some meat and prepare a few dishes to have a good drink.

Meanwhile...

After the truckload of watermelons arrived at the Junyue Grand Hotel...

They were quickly arranged. The hotel was packed today, with most people coming for the watermelons. After tasting them, they were all radiant and full of energy, as if bathed in refreshment.

Zhang Yongchang of the Milin Hotel was by the window and saw the bustling crowd. He then looked at the former high-level executives of the Junyue Hotel, who were just one step away from ruining the Junyue Grand Hotel, but now it had made a comeback...

Suddenly, a magical watermelon appeared, catching them completely off guard...

They had basically been bribed and dared not speak out. Their original intention was to sideline Zhou Dawei and then sell the Junyue Grand Hotel at a low price, thereby gaining significant benefits.

"Young Master Zhang... we found them..."

A subordinate from a department, Bao Daiting, rushed up again, overjoyed. He had been following Zhou Yanhong and finally learned the origin of the watermelons.

"Where?"

"Chen Family Village... we just inquired. They're signing some watermelon agency rights this noon. Let's go intercept them immediately; maybe we can acquire them in large quantities."

"What are you waiting for? Let's move..."

"Okay, okay... the car is already outside."

"Call some people to come along..."

Led by Zhang Yongchang, they set off in a mighty procession. As a foreign giant, they had entered the country with unstoppable force. They didn't believe they couldn't handle a mere farmer.

This grand convoy set off and arrived at the entrance of Chen Family Village around ten o'clock. It was a quaint rural scene with a small bridge, flowing water, a large tree, and a huge rock in front – a truly rare scenic beauty.

These people were not interested in the scenery and quickly drove into the village. Car after car stopped in front of Chen Xuan's house, and they banged fiercely on the iron gate...

"What are you doing? Banging on the door like that..."

A stunning figure opened the door. She was elegant and noble, exuding great grace, making everyone's eyes light up. Where did this fairy come from?

Zhang Yongchang suppressed his anger and put on what he thought was a refined smile. The greed in his eyes could not be concealed at all. He said, "What are you waiting for? Move this woman aside and bring out that scoundrel Chen Xuan."

"Yes..." Although the subordinates were stunned by her beauty, they acted without hesitation, storming the house.

Nuwa began to brew with anger. Blaspheming a deity, she was about to swat these brutes away with a single palm...

Everyone felt a tremor in their souls, inexplicably feeling a sense of dread, almost falling to their knees...

Chen Xuan, who was killing a duck in the kitchen, rushed out. Seeing the menacing group, he angrily asked, "What do you want?"

Nuwa then withdrew her aura. The group was still trembling with fear, feeling inexplicably terrified...

Zhang Yongchang trembled all over, suppressing his fear. He put his hands in his pockets, and a subordinate lit a cigarette for him. He exhaled a puff of smoke, suppressing his fear, and said, "Your family's watermelons, whatever Zhou Yanhong offers, I'll offer more than double. How about it? It's enough money for a bumpkin like you to farm for several years..."

An ordinary person would have been scared stiff by the other party's imposing aura and high price, selling all their watermelons on the spot. Chen Xuan was very displeased. He was also called a bumpkin, looking down on farmers?

"A bumpkin? I'm the grandpa you can't even hope to reach. Don't force me to act, get lost immediately..." Chen Xuan was truly enraged...

Zhang Yongchang laughed. Being rejected by a high-profile boss offering a high price, he couldn't help but say coldly, "Heh heh... What does a bumpkin like you know? I'm giving you face... Don't be shameless, or you won't get a single cent..."

A group of people took out clubs, looking menacing, with cold smiles on their faces, seemingly intending to force a sale...

"Kid, do you need me to step in?" Nuwa's voice rang out, her tone playful. She never expected the humans she created to be so despicable. Should she still create humans in the Primordial World after returning?

"If they make a move, just kill them all!" Chen Xuan calmly watched the show, as Nuwa was backing him up.

Zhang Yongchang flinched. His subordinates dared not act rashly. He exchanged a glance with Nuwa and felt as if his whole body was being suppressed, like falling into an abyss, sending a cold sweat down his spine...

This woman's aura was too powerful. Who was she?

However, he had another plan...

"Fine, fine, fine... Just you wait, you'll regret this." Zhang Yongchang left with a threat, and his subordinates immediately followed.

"Nuwa... Is this your kingly aura?" Chen Xuan asked in surprise.

"There's a difference between gods and mortals. If I weren't concerned about you, I could kill them with just a glance. Do you want to try?" Nuwa's lips curved into a playful smile.

"No, no... I was wrong..." Chen Xuan absolutely did not want to. This was a genuine Great Principle Golden Immortal. He immediately returned to the kitchen.

"Little brat..." Nuwa snorted, then went back to watching TV. It was Chinese Paladin. She was initially delighted, but later the mood soured.

"Damn it... That damned Shushan sect, what kind of trash are they? How dare they touch my descendants? And why are my descendants so stupid?"

"What's this Baiyue guy's deal? It's fine if you're into science, who cares? But you're trying to destroy the world?"

A burst of furious scolding erupted...

Chen Xuan was stunned...

So Nuwa was also so down-to-earth...

Meanwhile, in the village...

Everyone was happily waiting to sell their watermelons tomorrow, at two yuan per jin. In the countryside, this was a good sum of money, enough for the rest of the year's expenses.

Suddenly, a van drove into the village and put up a sign, offering to buy Chen Family Village's watermelons for three yuan per jin, valid only for today...

When the villagers heard the news, their expressions changed dramatically. They had just sold their watermelons to Chen Xuan for two yuan, and now someone was offering three yuan? Was this real?

"Young man? Is it really three yuan per jin?" an old woman with three remaining teeth asked curiously, leaning on her cane.

The young man who got out of the van smirked. Someone had finally taken the bait. He smiled kindly and said, "I've heard that Chen Family Village is blessed with exceptional people and abundant resources, and its watermelons are particularly good. That's why I rushed here to buy them. Do you grow any? Three yuan per jin, honest dealing, valid only for today..."

This move stirred the hearts of everyone
