Time flies!

More and more tourists were attracted to the villa by the promotional video, with the number already exceeding 100. Ticket sales alone brought in over 5,000 yuan.

Moreover, these people had, more or less, purchased Quality 1 strawberries or Quality 1 watermelons.

While most people couldn't afford watermelons at 100 yuan per jin or strawberries at 200 yuan per jin, they were willing to buy watermelons at 10 yuan per jin and regular strawberries at 40 yuan per jin.

In fact, these sold better than the regular watermelons and strawberries Qin Lin had bought wholesale. This was also a psychological issue for most people; when they come out to play, if they can't afford the most expensive, they can't possibly buy the cheapest either, so they opt for something in the middle.

Especially for young men bringing their girlfriends, they couldn't appear stingy in front of the girls, so they would usually buy some Quality 1 items.

The watermelons also came with a peeling and cutting service, where they were cut into pieces and placed in large transparent cups, with toothpicks provided for eating.

This not only helped maintain the villa's hygiene but also provided a better experience for the tourists.

Furthermore, the Quality 1 watermelons and strawberries did not disappoint the tourists; those who bought them and tasted them gave completely positive reviews.

Therefore, solely from the Quality 1 strawberries, 210 jin were sold, and 165 jin of watermelons were sold, totaling 10,050 yuan.

By lunchtime, many people also chose to prepare their own meals at the villa, renting stoves and barbecue grills.

Tourists were already heading to the vegetable patch to pick vegetables.

Quality 1 okra, priced at 10 yuan per jin, also sold 65 jin, bringing in 975 yuan.

Naturally, quite a few people also rented fishing rods to fish. The rental fees for fishing rods, stoves, and barbecue grills alone amounted to 1,600 yuan.

By the fish pond.

The girls who were initially not interested in fishing were now enthusiastically accompanying their male companions, looking forward to a catch.

Coming to this kind of villa, the atmosphere was part of the fun.

Moreover, the fish in the pond were all wild, advertised as being rich in nutritional value, which was also an attraction. Honestly, most ordinary people had rarely eaten wild fish.

Suddenly, everyone by the pond was drawn to the man in the suit because his fishing rod was raised high, and the water surface was splashing violently.

Everyone turned to look.

With such big splashes, how big a fish had he caught?

Chen Shengfei's face showed joy; after fishing for so long, he had finally caught a big one.

Judging by the force alone, the fish was definitely not small.

The fish struggled to escape, but Chen Shengfei held onto the fishing rod with all his might, creating a stalemate.

Crack! The fishing rod suddenly snapped, drawing everyone's attention.

The fish had actually broken the fishing rod.

Chen Shengfei was stunned.

"Is this a joke?"

Fortunately, he was quick-witted and grabbed the broken end. Even more fortunately, the fish seemed to have tired itself out from struggling, and he managed to pull it out of the water.

At this moment, everyone looked at the fish's size with astonishment.

"The fish he caught is so big, it must be over thirty jin!"

"It's taller than our Dou Dou."

"This fish is also wild."

Many people took out their phones to film as Chen Shengfei and the fish struggled, a common habit for many. Who wouldn't post on their social media when out playing?

Especially when such a rare scene occurred, anyone would want to share it.

Chen Shengfei looked at the wild grass carp, feeling an inexplicable sense of accomplishment. It was estimated to be no less than 30 jin, and he had never caught such a large wild fish before.

This also proved that the female attendant hadn't lied to him; there really were large wild fish in this pond.

Chen Shengfei catching such a large fish also greatly boosted the enthusiasm of other tourists. Many girls even urged their boyfriends, wanting to catch one themselves.

However, some people started murmuring and discussing:

"This kind of big catch seems very expensive!"

"It is very expensive. Didn't you see the notice board over there?"

"That big grass carp just now was 250 yuan per jin. The large black carp and crucian carp are even more expensive."

These prices shocked many people. 250 yuan per jin, so over 30 jin would be 7,000 to 8,000 yuan?

It would be better to just catch a small wild fish for barbecuing!

Chen Shengfei, completely satisfied, threaded the fish through its gills with the fishing string. He would have to pay for the broken fishing rod, but he didn't care at all. As he walked back with the fish, it was still struggling, but he held it firmly. Catching this big one made him happier than closing a major deal.

Next to the villa's main hall, many tourists were already starting fires and getting busy at the stoves and barbecue grills in the semi-open private rooms.

Chen Shengfei didn't plan to cook it himself. His wife was a good cook, and if she were here, they could cook it themselves. Since she wasn't, he would have to find the villa's chef.

Entering the hall, he went straight to find Gao Yaoyao.

Gao Yaoyao remembered this first guest and, looking at the 30-jin grass carp, exclaimed in surprise, "Sir, you are truly lucky to have actually caught a big one."

Chen Shengfei, in a good mood, said, "Young lady, please weigh this for me and then prepare it."

Gao Yaoyao quickly reminded him, "Sir, the price for this big catch is marked at our pond. It's more expensive than regular wild fish, 250 yuan per jin. This one will probably cost quite a bit. Are you sure you want it?"

Chen Shengfei didn't care about the money at all. Instead, he chuckled, "Have the chef prepare it. Also, get me two jin of this Okra, which is 400 yuan per jin, and cut me one of these watermelons that's 100 yuan per jin. For the other dishes, you can arrange a few based on your judgment."

He had tasted the strawberries earlier, so now he was eagerly anticipating trying all these expensive, marked-up items.

"Understood, sir." Gao Yaoyao noted down the order and immediately sent it to Master Lin in the kitchen.

"Sir, you have good luck." Master Lin came out, surprised to see the grass carp weighing over 30 jin that Chen Shengfei had caught. He couldn't believe someone actually caught it with the villa's old fishing rods.

How unlucky this fish was; those old fishing rods shouldn't have been able to handle such weight.

After finishing the order, Gao Yaoyao led Chen Shengfei to a table to sit down.

A moment later, a cut Quality 2 watermelon was brought to Chen Shengfei.

Chen Shengfei directly picked up a slice and started eating. He then looked at Gao Yaoyao beside him in surprise and asked, "Young lady, is this melon a special variety?"

The melon tasted exceptionally good, just like the strawberries. It was more delicious than any he had eaten before.

Gao Yaoyao quickly replied, "Sir, your guess is correct. Our boss said it's a special quality melon, and we only get about 20 a day."

"It makes sense that this kind of melon is scarce," Chen Shengfei nodded.

Soon, the kitchen also brought out Chen Shengfei's fish, Okra, and a few other vegetables.

Master Lin said, "Sir, you won't be able to finish this fish all at once, so I've only prepared the fish head and a piece of belly meat for you... You can take the rest home..."

"Okay." Chen Shengfei nodded and didn't dwell on it. He picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

But before long, his eyes lit up again.

This taste! Even dishes prepared by top chefs wouldn't taste this good.

Chen Shengfei was truly, exceptionally delighted.

He was a foodie himself, having tasted delicacies from both China and abroad. The taste of this fish was absolutely world-class.

Were the chefs at this small villa really this skilled?

It was truly astonishing.

Naturally, he didn't know this was due to game attribute bonuses: Deliciousness +2, Texture +2.

Chen Shengfei began to savor his meal slowly, and the Okra, priced at 400 yuan per jin, was consumed one after another.

The Okra itself didn't have a particularly special flavor, but as he ate, he was shocked to feel a warm sensation around his waist, and even a warm current flowed through his body, making him feel very comfortable.

Chen Shengfei found it incredible. This feeling was akin to eating a top-tier, 100,000-yuan therapeutic meal.
