Farming? I'm making a killing with my fairytale vegetables!

Chapter 164 sold out

"Boss, you're awake! I was just wondering what to make for breakfast if you could get up."

Guo Yu stared at her assistant and said, "Anything is fine with me. Just make a bowl of noodles and two fried eggs for breakfast."

"Okay," the assistant said, and immediately started cooking noodles in the kitchen.

Guo Yu watched her assistant cook and walked over to lean against the side, asking, "By the way, Xiao Li, nothing happened after I fell asleep yesterday, right?"

Xiaoli shook her head, a little embarrassed, "No, boss, nothing happened. But I dozed off yesterday and closed the live stream a little late. Oh, and the viewers in the live stream asked you for the link."

Guo Yu nodded, "Oh, it's okay. It's normal for you to doze off at that time. I understand about the link. I'll send it out in a bit."

"Okay," Xiaoli nodded, then asked curiously, "Boss, how did you sleep last night? The grapes look really good."

As someone who did the live stream with the boss, she knew the whole process best.

The coffee the boss ordered before the live stream was indeed pure coffee, the kind that's particularly energizing. She didn't see that the boss had taken sleeping pills or anything like that.

Besides, if someone really took sleeping pills, they wouldn't be able to chat for that long; they would just fall asleep immediately.

After hearing this question, Guo Yu began to describe her feelings in detail.

"At first, I didn't feel anything special, at most I felt a little sleepy, but this kind of sleepiness is very common, and it disappears quickly if I'm doing something like chatting yesterday."

"But in yesterday's live stream, viewers asked me to try closing my eyes to fall asleep. I closed my eyes and was still counting sheep. I was thinking that if I couldn't fall asleep after a while, I would get up and play on my phone. But I didn't expect that I would fall asleep after only counting a few sheep and sleep until dawn."

Xiaoli nodded in admiration, "It seems these grapes really are that effective."

Guo Yu nodded, "This boss is amazing, he's practically doing charity! These grapes are delicious and useful too."

Xiaoli's tone was also quite longing, "Yes, that's great! Boss, could you send me the link later too? I want to buy some too."

"Okay, but you don't need to buy it. I can just pay for it for you. Anyway, there's a limit of five pounds per order."

"Wow, thank you so much, boss!" Xiaoli was very excited. This was why she liked working with Guo Yu; in addition to her fixed salary, he would also give her gifts from time to time.

Guo Yu waved her hand with a laugh, "Haha, what's the big deal?"

After the two finished eating the egg noodles that Xiaoli had made that morning, Guo Yu paid for Xiaoli's order first and then sent out the link.

"Here is the link to buy grapes. You can click to purchase, but the quantity is limited each day, so hurry up and act fast, first come, first served."

After she posted the message, the following were comments from fans and curious viewers from yesterday.

"Wow, finally the link is out! I want to eat grapes."

"Yay! That's great! I want to eat grapes too!"

"Oh my god, Xiaoyu, you should have sent it to the fan group or to us privately. I went into the store now and it's gone. It's gone for today. Waaaaah."

"Me too, I was just a little slow, and you animals actually bought up all the stock the shop owner had on hand."

Guo Yu is, after all, a streamer with hundreds of thousands of followers. After the grape incident, she gained a small number of followers, and even though the number of active followers was small, it was still quite astonishing.

Xia Shiyu discovered that all the grapes she had put on her shop were sold out early this morning.

"Wow, this is amazing!"

Moreover, her inbox is now flooded with private messages asking her to restock.

"Wow, this is really something."

Xia Shiyu felt it was all too fast. Even though he thought this grape farm was indeed worth such a grand spectacle, it was still too sudden.

She checked the messages in the backend and found that a blogger had reviewed her grapes, which gave her a boost in traffic.

She watched the live stream and thought the streamer was really dedicated; thankfully, her family's grapes were indeed of that quality.

Xia Shiyu added some more grapes to the shop, but they were sold out immediately after being listed.

She was helpless. Although she was grateful for the popularity brought by the live broadcast, the number of grapes she had was obviously not enough to satisfy the general public. Moreover, she remembered that Zhao Yuan had told her that a bunch of people with insomnia needed these grapes even more.

Zhao Yuan had previously conducted an experiment where she ate grapes for five consecutive days, and even after she stopped eating grapes, she was able to return to normal sleep patterns.

Therefore, the five jin (2.5 kg) that Xia Shiyu set was definitely enough, and she continued to sell according to that quantity.

She immediately nudged Zhao Yuan and explained the matter to her.

Zhao Yuan was also very surprised when she learned about this.

[I never expected this to happen, but given the quality of your vegetables and fruits, it was only a matter of time before they attracted a live stream. I'll quickly contact the people in the insomnia group and tell them to buy them as soon as possible.]

Zhao Yuan knew that in this internet age, people like to record everything with short videos on their phones, and the grapes' great effect would definitely attract a lot of people.

At the same time, she also needed to hurry, so she quickly edited a message and sent it to the insomnia group, urging everyone to buy it as soon as possible.

After receiving the news, members of the insomnia group, whether they believed it or not, watched the live stream and, seeing the active crowd, couldn't care less about anything else and started to stake out the event.

After replying to the messages, Xia Shiyu noticed that her shop only had one link. She thought for a moment and decided to list all the vegetables she currently had on the site. Of course, she also set a purchase limit, otherwise, if too many customers placed orders, her family wouldn't be able to afford them.

It's mainly lettuce and tomatoes. Oranges and radishes have already been sold out. Apart from some left at home to eat during the New Year, the only other things are what she still grows in her space. She'll keep these for her own family to eat.

The moment Xia Shiyu posted the link, other netizens saw it. Some netizens quickly took pictures and discovered that what they were selling was lettuce and tomatoes.

They immediately requested a refund. Of course, some netizens thought that if the grapes were so amazing, the lettuce and tomatoes should be just as good, so they bought one of each.

Xia Shiyu was unaware of the complex emotional journeys of these netizens; she was simply quite satisfied with the ever-increasing number of orders in the background.

Just as she was satisfied, Yu Juan happily approached her.

"Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu, didn't you say you were going to hire someone for customer service? I've found someone now."
