Supreme Man

Chapter 479: Inspecting the Rubber Latex


"We have the years, but can you take me to see the latex?" Ye Hao asked with a smile.

"Of course, but my brother Yihui has had bad business for years, drinks every day, maybe his words are not too pleasant, Boss, please don't mind!" Xie Yixiong seemed afraid that his brother Xie Yihui might offend Ye Hao and the others, so he reminded Ye Hao and his group in advance.

"Haha, that's no problem. Even if the business doesn't succeed, friendship lasts. Even if your brother doesn't want to sell to us, we still need to thank Village Chief Xie." Ye Hao laughed.

Then, Xie Yixiong led Ye Hao and the others toward the back mountain, where Ye Hao saw coconut trees and rubber trees, lush and green, making one feel very comfortable.

"Wow! So many coconuts!" Ye Lang and Fei Gou both shouted excitedly, as if they had never seen coconuts before.

Xie Yixiong, the village secretary, laughed and said, "If you see any fallen coconuts, pick them up and drink. These coconuts are the ripest and ready to be harvested, the sweet coconut scent is simply unforgettable."

"Secretary, can we climb up and pick some?" Ye Lang asked with a smile.

"Such tall trees, how will you climb up?" Xie Yixiong smiled and shook his head.

"I have my ways. If Secretary doesn't mind, I'll go up then." Ye Lang was a bit thirsty and wanted to taste some fresh coconut juice.

"Haha, go for it! Be careful and stay safe." Secretary Xie Yixiong was generous and allowed Ye Lang to climb and pick some coconuts to eat.

Ye Lang, hearing this, joyfully looked at Ye Hao and said, "Boss, hehe, lend a hand?"

"If you want to eat, then climb up and pick them!" Ye Hao smiled.

"I'm too lazy to climb, I know Boss, you have a way." Ye Lang chuckled.

Ye Hao waved his hand, ignoring them.

At this moment, Luo Yingxue gently hummed, "I want to drink coconut juice, fresh ones."

Ye Hao, hearing this, said helplessly, "Can you not make a fuss? Ye Lang, climb up and pick one more, let her drink."

"I don't want it, I want you to pick it." Luo Yingxue stubbornly insisted, wanting Ye Hao to pick fresh coconuts for her.

"Unreasonable…" Ye Hao glared at her.

"Are you going to pick or not?" Luo Yingxue glared at Ye Hao fiercely and snorted.

"Alright! I'll pick it for you, okay?" Ye Hao, feeling helpless, picked up a stone.

Xie Yixiong, seeing this, laughed and said, "Are you going to use a stone to knock it down, Boss? That's not a good way! Coconuts are not easy to knock down unless they are ripe."

"Whoosh!"

Ye Hao did not heed the village secretary Xie Yixiong's advice, using his Finger Snap Divine Skill, he snapped, sending the stone quickly shooting out from his hand.

"Crash!"

A single stone from Ye Hao's hand caused five coconuts to fall.

Ye Lang and Fei Gou quickly went over, then used the Grapple Hand technique taught by Saiyans Tai Lin and Tyson to catch the five coconuts.

"This..." Xie Yixiong was dumbfounded, indeed Ye Hao knocked down five coconuts using a stone.

He was amazed, this was the first time he saw someone so skilled, like watching a martial arts movie on TV.

"Haha." Ye Hao laughed without explaining anything, even if he did, Xie Yixiong might not understand.

Luo Yingxue pouted and said, "I wanted you to climb up and pick them yourself..."

"If you don't want to drink, just forget it." Ye Hao glared at her then followed Xie Yixiong to his brother Xie Yihui's place.

Xie Yihui lived halfway up the mountain, he chose to live there to guard the rubber and coconuts, to prevent theft of the rubber and coconuts late at night.

Ye Hao and the others followed Xie Yixiong to the hillside, where Ye Hao looked ahead.

Xie Yihui was a skinny, dark-skinned man, quite tall, his eyes red and swollen, indicating his fondness for alcohol, as only drinkers have bloodshot eyes.

Luo Yingxue and others were sipping coconut juice with bamboo straws, while Ye Hao was properly following behind Xie Yixiong.

Seeing the skinny, dark-skinned man, Xie Yixiong quickly stepped up and said, "Hui, drinking again?"

"Just a little, Ah Xiong, what brings you here?" the skinny dark-skinned man said, glancing at Xie Yixiong, then turned his eyes to Ye Hao and his group.

Ye Hao stepped forward, reached out his hand to Xie Yihui and said, "Uncle Hui, hi, I'm Ye Hao. I've heard you have been in rubber planting for more than ten years, so I've come to take a look, planning to purchase a batch of latex from you."

"What more than ten years of rubber, at most eight or nine years." Xie Yihui waved his hand honestly said.

Xie Yixiong's face turned awkward for a moment, thinking why is his brother being so honest! When others say more than ten years, why didn't he just go along with it?

"Oh? Eight or nine years? That's still pretty good!" Ye Hao praised with a smile, thinking how honest Xie Yihui seemed.

"Good it may be, but without a suitable price, I haven't tapped rubber in two years." Although Xie Yihui didn't know Ye Hao, hearing Ye Hao's intention to buy latex, he also invited Ye Hao to sit in the yard.

Xie Yixiong was listening on the side, saying nothing, because it's his brother's business whether he sells the rubber or not, he cannot make the decision.

At this moment, Xie Yihui's wife walked over from the rubber field, looked at Xie Yixiong and said, "Ah Xiong, why are you so free to come over?"

"Sister-in-law, I brought Boss Ye over to see Hui's rubber, could you tell the boss how your rubber is?" Seeing Xie Yihui's wife Qin Xiu return, Xie Yixiong introduced Ye Hao to her.

"Oh! Boss Ye, hi there, hi there." Qin Xiu quickly wiped her hands on her waist before extending her hand to greet Ye Hao.

"Hello, Auntie." Ye Hao didn't put on airs, he reached out his hand and smiled warmly.

"Boss Ye, hi there, hi there." Qin Xiu, a bit excited, didn't know what else to say, she could only hold Ye Hao's hand, repeatedly saying hi.

Xie Yihui waved his hand and said, "Ah Xiu, go pour a cup of tea for Boss Ye!"

"Alright! I'll go right away." Qin Xiu said happily. Their family hadn't tapped rubber for two years, and during these years, they could only rely on selling some coconuts to make a living, so naturally, she was excited seeing a boss coming to look at their rubber.

Ye Hao laughed and said, "Auntie, no need to bother with tea. I'm just here to see the quality of your latex. If it's good, I'll pay a deposit first, you can hire someone to tap it for me, and I'll send someone to collect it later."

"Oh! Not even a cup of tea?" Qin Xiu worried the business might not go through, asked a bit disappointedly.

"No need to bother with tea. Uncle Hui, Secretary, can you take me to see the latex?" Ye Hao smiled.

"Sure! Let's go have a look then!" Xie Yihui took a bowl and a steel knife from the house and led Ye Hao and the others to the rubber field. (To be continued.
