What a Big Bad Egg, rotten to the core. Su Man thought. Outwardly, a flower-like smile blood on her pretty face as she asked with anticipation, "So, how many acres of vegetables do you plan to plant?"
"Vegetables? I didn't say anything about increasing vegetable production," Zhang Bin said, astonished.
"Then how are you going to increase the hotel's profit?" Su Man pouted playfully.
Curiosity and confusion appeared on the others' faces, but they were also filled with anticipation. They knew Zhang Bin was incredible and that he might have another way to multiply the hotel's profits several tis over.
"Heh heh... it's a secret," Zhang Bin said with a mischievous laugh.
The won grew frustrated, each resorting to her own special trick to make him spill the beans—acting coy, batting their eyelashes, or even letting him take so small advantage.
"I'll take you to the site in a bit, and then you'll understand," Zhang Bin said, finally relenting.
The group of won beca extrely excited. Liu Ruolan and Xiao Fang were especially eager, knowing that Zhang Bin was about to demonstrate his magical thods once again. In the future, Zhang Bin would be able to earn even more money.
After the New Year's al, Zhang Bin kept his word. He imdiately used his Telekinesis Special Ability to lift Liu Ruolan, Xiao Fang, Su Man, and Liu Xin into the air, flying them straight toward Great Green Mountain.
Wen Shanshan watched them fly away, her heart screaming with jealousy. Liu Xin, I'm so envious of you! In the chairman's heart, you're family. But ? I can only ever be a secretary.
As for the other won, they were overco with the sa envy, staring into the sky for a long ti as if they had lost their souls.
"Is this what Riding the Clouds and Commanding the Mist feels like?"
The won flying through the air were filled with excitent and exhilaration. Their beautiful eyes shone with a fiery gaze, fixed on Zhang Bin's tall, mountain-like back, unable to look away.
How could they not be utterly captivated by a youth like this, a marvel of a man like him?
Soon, Zhang Bin landed them on a small peak at the edge of Great Green Mountain. Pointing to the broad valley below, he said, "This is where I'll make my move."
"Are you going to cultivate vegetables here?" Su Man's face lit up with a pleasant surprise. The valley was vast; if developed into vegetable fields, they could plant an incredible amount. How could the hotel's profits not double then?
The other won thought the sa, their eyes glued to the valley, their faces full of anticipation.
"No, no, no. I'm not cultivating vegetables. I'm going to raise fish here," Zhang Bin announced proudly. "Fish sell much better than vegetables, and the price will be much higher."
Xiao Fang, Liu Ruolan, and Liu Xin nearly fainted, their faces showing sheer disbelief. This was a valley with no water at all. How on earth could he raise fish? Besides, a valley like this must have leaks, which was why no water had ever collected here.
If it couldn't hold water, how could he possibly raise fish? It was a complete fantasy.
"Raise fish?" Su Man's face, however, showed delighted surprise, her eyes shining brightly. "Xiao Bin, first tell , will the fish you raise be especially delicious? If it's just ordinary fish, then there's no point."
"Does that even need to be said? The fish I raise will, of course, be Wushuang—incomparably more delicious than vegetables," Zhang Bin said proudly. "You could price a pound of this fish at ten thousand, and it would still be a massive hit. Countless people would rush for it, ready to break their heads just to get a taste."
"That's wonderful! That is far better than cultivating vegetables," Su Man said. "But you can't raise fish here. How about leasing a lake or a few dozen fish ponds instead?"
"I'm set on this place because it's my territory," Zhang Bin said earnestly. "There's no rent to pay, and cutting costs is essential."
"Honey, I don't think fish farming will work here. Raising wild boars seems more suitable," Liu Ruolan said with a playful laugh.
"Right, right! Raising wild boars here, or chickens, sheep, and cattle would all be great," Xiao Fang added excitedly.
"President Liu and Xiao Fang are right," Liu Xin chid in.
"Chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, and cattle are all possible, but that's too much trouble. So, I've decided to farm fish," Zhang Bin said with a sly smile.
Of course, those weren't the only reasons. To make terrestrial livestock taste delicious, they had to be fed vegetables grown with Spiritual Water. That would be completely redundant. If I could grow that many vegetables, I might as well sell them directly for a huge profit. Fish farming, however, is different. I just need to place a few Spirit Stones in the water. As long as the water contains a certain amount of Spiritual Energy, the fish won't get sick, and their at will beco exceptionally delicious. Besides, it doesn't require much managent. I'll just plant so aquatic plants at the bottom, and the fish can feed themselves. Once they're big enough, I can just haul them up with a net. It's so simple and easy!
The won weren't opposed to fish farming itself; they simply felt it was impossible to do it here, which was why they all objected.
"Heh heh... just let show you your husband's Divine Skills, and then you won't object anymore," Zhang Bin said with a sly smile.
"Aha! Taking advantage of and Liu Xin, your wolfish ambition is finally clear, isn't it?" Su Man retorted with mock anger.
Liu Ruolan and Xiao Fang also shot Zhang Bin a reproachful look, as if to say, You Big Bad Egg, you aren't really planning to make a move on us too, are you?
"President Su, don't you know? The chairman has loved to take small advantages since he was a boy," Liu Xin said, her face flushing, as she covertly tried to smooth things over for Zhang Bin.
"A slip of the tongue, just a slip of the tongue." Zhang Bin's skin was thick; he didn't blush or show the slightest embarrassnt. "All of you, keep your eyes peeled and watch my terrifying Divine Skills."
RUMBLE...
As soon as Zhang Bin's words fell, a sound like roaring thunder suddenly echoed through the canyon.
Huge rocks began to sink rapidly, and entire trees were ripped from the ground, flying up into the sky and landing outside the canyon as if seized by a monstrous force. Soon, the canyon floor was bare and level, perfect for dragnet fishing. Cracks in the canyon walls rapidly sealed themselves and vanished. A high embanknt rose to encircle the valley, completely enclosing it. Several large drainage channels were even ford at the base of one embanknt, allowing floodwaters to escape in a downpour. The valley now resembled a huge reservoir.
Incredibly, water began to appear in the transford valley. It rose rapidly, and soon the place had turned into a genuine reservoir.
This was the result of Zhang Bin using the power of an Array Plate, which had consud more than thirty Spirit Stones to transform the canyon.
"How is this possible? How can this be? Am I dreaming?"
The won were completely dumbfounded, unable to believe their own eyes. Their admiration for Zhang Bin's miraculous abilities had reached the point of utter reverence
