Debunking Rumors and Opening New Paths for Trade Shows
Su Yunlan felt a surge of anger as she listened to Zhou Xiaofan's sarcastic and malicious slander, but she took a deep breath and told herself to stay calm.
In times like these, panic will only fuel the spread of rumors.
She turned to look at Xiao Yuhan beside her, and saw that his eyes were calm and he nodded slightly, as if encouraging her to go for it.
“Boss,” Su Yunlan’s voice was clear and crisp, carrying an undeniable authority, “You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want. Everyone has seen how good our fruit is; how dare you spout nonsense here?”
Xiao Yuhan's tall and upright figure standing beside Su Yunlan gave her an invisible boost of confidence.
His gaze swept over the crowd like a cold star, and the fruit farmers, who were initially wavering, felt much more at ease after sensing this steady strength.
Seeing Su Yunlan's composure, Zhou the peddler felt a little flustered, but he was still determined to cause trouble and continued to fan the flames: "Hmph, who knows if you used some ripening agent? This fruit looks good, but you might get sick if you eat it!"
Several fruit merchants who were initially interested began to hesitate after hearing this.
After all, doing business is all about being safe and sound; nobody wants to get into unnecessary trouble.
"You're talking nonsense!" A clear voice rang out as Miss Sun glared angrily at Zhou the peddler. "Sister Su and Brother Xiao work so hard every day, from dawn till dusk, for the orchard. How dare you slander them like this?"
Zhou, the peddler, glanced at Miss Sun with disdain and said sarcastically, "Oh, little brat, what do you know? I'm doing this for everyone's good, so that you don't get cheated and end up helping them count their money!"
"You!" Miss Sun was so angry that her face turned pale. She was about to retort when Zhou the vendor rudely interrupted her.
"I'm telling you, there's something wrong with your orchard! Otherwise, why would you be in such a hurry to sell? You're definitely trying to rip us off and run away!" Zhou the peddler's voice grew louder and louder, spitting as he spoke, as if he had caught something red-handed.
Su Yunlan's face turned completely cold.
She just wanted to do business properly, but she never expected the vendors to be so shameless this week.
She gestured to Xiao Yuhan to calm down, then took light steps and slowly walked up to Zhou the vendor.
A meaningful smile played on her lips, her voice soft yet tinged with coldness: "Is that so? Since Boss Zhou is so suspicious, then... let's have a proper discussion." Before she finished speaking, Su Yunlan pulled a stack of papers from her sleeve and waved them lightly in front of everyone. "Fellow villagers, esteemed bosses, please take a look at this."
The papers in Su Yunlan's hand were several inspection reports stamped with the official seal.
She unfolded the report, her clear voice flowing gently like a mountain spring: "This is our orchard's fruit inspection report. Every single indicator meets the standards, and even far exceeds those of ordinary fruits. The report clearly states that our fruits have no pesticide residues, no ripening agents, and are purely natural, green, and healthy!"
Zhou Xiaofan's face turned deathly pale instantly. He never expected that Su Yunlan would be so well prepared.
He wanted to refute it, but found that he couldn't find any reason at all.
"Impossible! This must be fake! You must have forged it!" he shouted, his voice weak and feeble despite his bluster.
Su Yunlan sneered and turned her gaze to Researcher Zhao in the crowd: "Mr. Zhao, you are an expert in fruit tree research. I'm sure you can tell the authenticity of these reports at a glance, right?"
Researcher Zhao initially intended to maintain his haughty demeanor, but upon seeing Su Yunlan's confident gaze and the expectant looks from the surrounding fruit farmers, he hesitated for a moment before finally nodding slowly: "These reports... are true. Moreover, I have personally witnessed Madam Su's methods for improving fruit trees during this period; she truly possesses genuine talent and expertise."
Researcher Zhao's testimony undoubtedly provides the most authoritative endorsement to Su Yunlan's statement.
The fruit farmers began to murmur amongst themselves, their gazes towards Zhou the vendor filled with disdain.
Zhou Xiaofan was completely panicked. He never expected that his carefully planned conspiracy would be so easily thwarted by Su Yunlan.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but found himself speechless.
Su Yunlan looked at Zhou Xiaofan's distorted face with satisfaction, and a strong sense of accomplishment welled up in her heart.
She turned around and smiled at the fruit merchants present: "Gentlemen, facts speak louder than words. I believe you all know the quality of our fruit. I wonder if anyone still has any doubts about our fruit?"
No one answered; everyone was intimidated by Su Yunlan's aura.
At that moment, a warm, large hand grasped Su Yunlan's hand.
She turned her head and saw Xiao Yuhan gazing at her with eyes full of pride and love.
His hands were large and warm, as if they could bring her boundless strength.
Su Yunlan returned a deep, affectionate gaze, and their eyes met, as if the whole world had shrunk to just the two of them.
The people around felt this intense love, and a warm feeling welled up in their hearts.
Su Yunlan turned her head, looked around, and finally her gaze fell on Wu Guoshang.
She saw that Wu Guoshang's face had turned very ugly.
Su Yunlan smiled slightly and slowly walked towards Wu Guoshang, a strange light flashing in her eyes: "Mr. Wu, shouldn't we settle things properly about what happened before?"
Su Yunlan's steps were firm and elegant. She walked up to Wu Guoshang, her eyes sharp, her tone calm yet undeniably firm: "Mr. Wu, shouldn't we settle things properly about what happened before?" Wu Guoshang's face turned very ugly. He had originally planned to continue to lower the price and squeeze every penny out of the orchard, but seeing Su Yunlan's current aura, he knew that he had lost the initiative.
The fruit vendors around them looked at each other, their previous indifference turning into admiration and support for Su Yunlan.
A middle-aged fruit merchant stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Madam Su, we were fortunate to have your help before, which allowed us to overcome our difficulties. We are willing to cooperate with your orchard and purchase your fruit at a fair and reasonable price." Before he finished speaking, the other fruit merchants echoed his sentiments, expressing their willingness to join the cooperation.
Young Master Xiao was so excited he almost jumped up. He cheered, "Great! Sister, there's finally hope for our orchard!"
Su Yunlan smiled and nodded. She took out a pre-prepared cooperation agreement from her sleeve and handed it to the middle-aged fruit merchant: "This is a cooperation contract. I hope we can work together to create a better future." The middle-aged fruit merchant carefully reviewed the contents of the contract, nodded in satisfaction, and then signed it.
He solemnly handed the contract back to Su Yunlan, and the two shook hands to finalize the deal.
Young Master Xiao excitedly circled around the two of them, as if celebrating this hard-won victory.
As news of the collaboration spread, the orchard's fruit quickly gained recognition.
A long-lost smile finally appeared on Chen Guonong's face, and hope shone in his eyes.
He walked up to Su Yunlan and bowed deeply: "Madam Su, thank you so much. With your help, our orchard will surely be able to regain its former glory."
Su Yunlan smiled and patted Chen Guonong on the shoulder. She stood in the orchard and looked around.
Sunlight shines on the fruit-laden trees, and the glistening fruits sway gently in the breeze.
The laughter of fruit farmers and the shouts of fruit merchants mingled together, creating a vibrant scene.
Her heart was filled with pride and satisfaction. She and Xiao Yuhan smiled at each other, their feelings for each other deepening.
However, at that moment, a faint noise suddenly came from the orchard.
Su Yunlan keenly noticed this. She walked to a fruit tree and saw several unripe fruits scattered on the ground.
A sense of unease suddenly rose in her heart. She squatted down and carefully examined the fallen fruit, her brows furrowed.
At this moment, Xiao Yuhan walked to her side and gently patted her shoulder: "Yunlan, don't worry, we will solve this problem together."
Su Yunlan looked up.
