*****

When Lu Minghui came over, he also gave a box of moon cakes: "Miss Shen, this is a Mid-Autumn Festival gift from our company." 
 
The moon cake box Lu Minghui sent was very beautiful: "Thank you." 
 
While Lu Minghui and the others weighed the fruits, Shen Tingshuang picked some vegetables for them at the foot of the mountain.    
 
After they left, Shen Tingshuang continued to plant the land. She planned to finish planting the land on this mountain a year from now.  
 
At noon, Shen Tingshuang opened the moon cakes sent by Lu Minghui. The first bite of this moon cake tasted okay, but the second bite made her felt a little greasy.  
 
So after trying to eat the whole moon cake and failed, Shen Tingshuang did not continue to eat.  
 
Zhizhi saw Shen Tingshuang put the moon cakes away: "Ah Shuang didn't eat it?" 
 
"Well, it's too sweet." It seems that today's moon cakes were so sweet that they were sickening.  
 
Zhizhi "Then can I take it away for a friend to eat?" 
 
"Yes." 
 
"Thank you Ah Shuang," 
 
But after all, Zhizhi was only a little bird, it could I only fly half a moon cake at a time, and after flying back and forth several times,  it was too tired, "Ah Shuang, can I let my friend come over to eat?" 
 
"Sure." 
 
After a while, Shen Tingshuang saw two birds flying in the distance.  
 
But getting closer, Shen Tingshuang clearly discovered that it was not a normal bird flying next to Zhizhi.  
 
Zhizhi flapped its wings in front of Shen Tingshuang, "Ah Shuang, this is my friend, Yingying." 
 
Yingying on the side looked like he was indifferent, even if he ate Shen Tingshuang moon cakes, he didn't show any gratitute. 
 
Shen Tingshuang finally saw the real species next to Zhizhi: "Ying Long?"
 

Ying Long here

 
Yingying looked back at Shen Tingshuang: "Do you know me?" He has heard Zhizhi said that there was a human friend who can understand animal language. At first glance, it seemed that she was not an ordinary human being. 
 
"I don't know you." Shen Tingshuang: "But I should have seen your ancestor." 
 
Yingying: "..." He was wrong. Not only Shen Tingshuang was not an ordinary human, but she should not be a human at all. After all, his ancestors lived many many years ago. 
 
Shen Tingshuang: "A long time ago, there was a Yinglong named Ahuang, it should be your ancestor?"
 
Yingying almost fell from the air: "Have you really meet him?" 
 
Seeing Yingying's reaction, Shen Tingshuang asked: "Who is Ahuang?" 
 
"My great great grandpa."
 
Yingying was reluctant to come at the beginning. But hearing Shen Tingshuang mentioned Ahuang, his attitude has turned a hundred and eighty degrees. When answering the question this time, he was not as indifferent.  
 
Shen Tingshuang: "When I saw him, he was just a super small dragon, smaller than you." 
 
In Zhizhi's heart, Yingying has always been a very cold creature, but she liked his yellowish body. The wings were particularly dazzling.  
 
In fact, Yingying kept ignoring Zhizhi. Until one day, Zhizhi found that Yingying liked to eat sweets. Since then, Zhizhi would often feed Yingying. Over time, Yingying's attitude towards Zhizhi changed.  
 
Unexpectedly, his attitude to Shen Tingshuang changed so much quickly today.  
 
Yingying finished eating moon cakes: "There is a lot of spiritual energy in this mountain, can I live here?" 
 
Shen Tingshuang: "Up to you." 
 
The back mountain was connected to a mountain range, uninhabited, so even if Yinglong lived there, no one can see either.  
 
Yingying got up and flew. He also ate some fruit by the way.  
 
...
 
Upon seeing this, Zhizhi covered her eyes with her wings: "Uh, it should be very good." 
 
Shen Tingshuang said: "En." Well, a mountain with one of the ten great ancient beasts plus a ginseng spirit.  
 
Yingying did not ask anything from Shen Tingshuang, he flew to the back mountain and found that there were many trees in some desolate places above the mountain side.  
 
He set up a barrier directly on the back mountain, and then burned all the weeds on the mountain. 
 
The ashes of these weeds could be used as fertilizer, which was a great help to Shen Tingshuang.  
 
After burning these, he found a big tree on the mountain and rest on it.
 
...
 
At five o'clock in the afternoon, when Shen Tingshuang started live broadcast, everyone was surprised to find that she had started to make things again, and she had already done almost half of it.  
 
Fans have speculated about what exactly she was doing.  
 
But this time Shen Tingshuang didn't explain what she did.  
 
Netizens think that the objects made by Shen Tingshuang look like a house, but they didn't look exactly like it.  
 
In fact, Shen Tingshuang was making a wooden nest with a height and width of 1.5 meters. 
 
After it was finished, it was padded with a quilt and then covered with sheets.  
 
It should be larger instead of smaller. This size should be enough for Yingying to roll inside.  
 
...
 
This afternoon, Shen Tingshuang was busy with Yingying. It was not until the evening that she had time to look at her Alipay. 
 
After the release of the funds task, Shen Tingshuang checked Alipay ten times more frequently than before. 
 
She was 2 million short of completing the task, so Shen Tingshuang put apples, bananas, and strawberries on the shelves.
 
...
 
Early the next morning, Yingying saw this nest, directly grew bigger, and flew it to the top of the mountain.  
 
Shen Tingshuang shook her head, really you're welcome.  
 
But in return, he would help turn over the soil in the back mountain and also helped sow the seeds.  

 
...
 
At noon on the fourth day of the mission, Shen Tingshuang’s funds successfully exceeded 8 million yuan, reaching 8.03 million yuan.  
 
System: "Does the host need additional task?" 
 
"Is the amount needed 16 million yuan?"
 
"Correct."
 
Shen Tingshuang: Is this system crazy? She would not be able to make 7.97 million yuan in a day and a half.  
 
The system knew Shen Tingshuang’s thoughts, and said directly: "Congratulations to the host for completing the mission and recovering 35% of her spiritual veins."
 
...
 
There were not as many people who came to Xin Yuan Shan to buy fruit today. 
 
Shen Tingshunag put 100 catties of various fruits at the foot of the mountain every day, but yesterday at noon.  It was all gone. 
 
But it was not sold out until late today. 
 
Shen Tingshuang understood that today was the Mid-Autumn Festival, so everyone was going home for the holiday. 
 
Anyone that wanted to buy fruits has all came to buy it yesterday. 
 
Shen Tingshuang planned to make moon cakes by herself. When she went to Super Mall before, she bought the ingredients to make them. 
 
She thought that everyone was celebrating the festival so there would not be many people watching the live broadcast. She didn’t expect that the number of viewers would exceeded 10,000 within three minutes of the live broadcast. 
 
[Ah Shuang, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival] 
 
[Remember to eat moon cakes.]
 
Shen Tingshuang: "Yes, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so I will live broadcast making moon cakes for everyone."
 
The ingredients for making moon cakes were all ready on the table. Shen Tingshuang intended to make five-nut moon cakes. 
 

Five-nut (Wu Ren) Moon Cakes Here

 
When it came to five-nut moon cakes, there were mixed reviews. Some liked it, some people hated it. The live broadcast comments have already have this debate.
 
[I like to eat moon cakes with pie skin.] 
 
[I like to eat salted egg yolk.] 
 
[I like to eat sweet~] 
 
[Does Ah Shuang make nut moon cakes only?]  
 
The camera of the mobile phone was shining on the kitchen table. 
 
There were ingredients that Shen Tingshuang bought before, such as pistachios, almonds, pumpkin seeds, and sesame seeds. 
 
Shen Tingshuang spread all of these on the baking tray and lay them flat.  
 
She put it into the oven and bake at 200 degrees for 10 minutes. 
 
While the oven was working, Shen Tingshuang took out the flour and puts it in a large bowl, then added corn oil, sugar and honey, stirred gently and put it aside.  
 
It was to make water and oil based dough. 
 
She took out another bowl, put flour and melted lard in it, mix well, this was to make oil based dough. 
 
Yes, Shen Tingshuang intended to make layered five-nut moon cakes. 
 
Two batches would be made. First put aside the dough on the cutting board, open the oven carefully, and flipped the nuts inside.
 
Shen Tingshuang returned to the cutting board, divides the two kinds of dough into several equal parts, then rolled the water and oil based dough into slices. She then kneaded the oil based dough into small balls and wraps it inside the water and oil based dough, then rolled it out again into a round shape. 
 
After finishing this, Shen Tingshuang puts the nuts in a ziplock bag then directly used a rolling pin to smash them. She then sprinkled blueberry sauce and mung bean paste on top, and mix them evenly.  
 
This was the filling of the five-nut moon cake. She divided them into small balls on a tray. 
 
After dividing them, they were put into the dough she just made, wrapped them back into a circle. She then placed them on the prepared mold, pressed, and the shape of the moon cake will come out.  
 
Shen Tingshuang placed the moon cakes in the oven, adjusted the temperature to 180 degrees, and talked to the phone: "Wait a quarter of an hour for the moon cakes to be ready." 
 
[This looks simple. I almost thought I would do it too.]
 
[I bought a copy of snowy moon cake ingredients and brought them home, but I failed in the dough making step, and 99 yuan is wasted.]
 
...
 
After Shen Tingshuang chatted with everyone for a while, the oven alarm rang. Shen Tingshuang took out the moon cakes from the inside: "It is baked, it should taste okay." 
 
The outer crust was glowing with caramel color, and the aroma of nuts was mixed in.  
 
Shen Tingshuang broke a moon cake. Because it was made with two kinds of dough, the moon cake skin was layered. Shen Tingshuang took a bite. 
 
The blueberry sauce was made with blueberries she grew but the mung bean paste was bought.  
 
She didn’t add much bean paste, she also didn’t add any extra sugar. Otherwise it would be too sweet. 
 
“It taste okay, let’s draw one viewer to receive two five-nut moon cakes."
 
...
 
Shen Tingshuang finished the draw, closed the live broadcast directly, and took the rest of the moon cakes to the sun room. She also brought the wine she made before, thinking about making some sweet-scented osmanthus wine before the Mid-Autumn Festival next year. 
 

Osmanthus wine Here

 
She planned to drink the wine while eating moon cakes. She watched a movie and admired the moon on the roof by the way. Through the glass, she could see the round moon in the sky and the stars all over the sky. 
 
Zhizhi flew over the roof: "Ah Shuang, someone is looking for you below the mountain."
 
Since Yingying came, Zhizhi often ran to the back mountain, but would still return to the courtyard at night.  
 
Shen Tingshuang: "..." Who was it, so late at night.
 
"He has been here a few times, the very handsome one." 
 
Very handsome, that should be Qin Yueze. 
 
If it was someone else, she would not go down the mountain. But when the BUG came, she still has to go down. 
 
Sure enough, she saw Qin Yueze at the foot of the mountain. 
 
...
 
Qin Yueze's most recent scenes were filmed near City B. Today was Mid-Autumn Festival, so the crew took one-night vacation. 

 
After he finished the filming in the afternoon and took off his makeup, Qin Yueze planned to go home, but unconsciously drove the car here.  
 
He didn't intend to disturb Shen Tingshuang, so he just stayed quietly below the mountain for a while. 
 
It was 8 o'clock, so it was quite dark. This small village shrouded in moonlight gives people a sense of peace, staying here, people would unconsciously relax.  
 
Qin Yueze sat in the car and looked at the moon in the sky. 
 
There was suddenly a figure moving on the mountain next to him, and this figure ran toward his car.  
 
Shen Tingshuang was wearing a gray cotton T-shirt, paired with wide linen trousers. Her hair was in a ponytail, not very fashionable, but comfortable.  
 
Qin Yueze smiled.  
 
...
 
Shen Tingshuang walked to Qin Yueze's car: "The filming is over?" 
 
Qin Yueze unlocked the car: "We took a rest tonight." 
 
Shen Tingshuang opened the door and sat in the passenger seat: "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, why didn't you go home?" 
 
Qin Yueze's eyes dimmed for a moment: "I don't have a home." 
 
It turned out to be similar to the original owner. Although the original owner actually has a home, it was no better than having none.  
 
Qin Yueze saw the sympathetic look in Shen Tingshuang's eyes. It was a bit funny. 
 
Shen Tingshuang's situation was similar to his own, but she seemed to sympathize with himself more.  
 
"Have you eaten moon cakes? Let's go up, I will invite you to eat moon cakes." 
 
"Okay." 
 
Qin Yueze already knew the way to the courtyard so he drove over directly.  
 
When he got out of the car, Qin Yueze saw a car parked outside the courtyard. 
 
It was exactly the same model as his own. He was a little unsure whether there were other people visiting.  
 
Shen Tingshuang on the side saw Qin Yueze looking at the car and said, "I rode your car last time and thought it was a good car so I bought one too. Let's go." 
 
Shen Tingshuang walked in front, not paying attention to the person behind her.  
 
After Qin Yueze heard her explanation, his tight face relaxed.  
 
...
 
The two went to the sun room.  
 
Qin Yueze didn't see this sun room last time, and he found that every time he came, there would always be new changes.  
 
Shen Tingshuang went to get two glasses.
 
Because of Qin Yueze’s arrival, Shen Tingshuang cut the remaining moon cakes into four. 
 
She put some wine in the glass: “This wine was bought on Live Broadcast before, but after it arrived, I found that it was not so delicious. So I added grapes I planted."
 
Qin Yueze drove over and supposedly shouldn't drink, but at this moment he did not refuse: "Okay."
 
The movie Shen Tingshuang originally wanted to watch was a costume movie "My Dear Prince Duan" starring Qin Yueze. 
 
This movie was a romance movie, which contained some plots and palace fights. It was filmed by Yueze in his second year of debut.  
 
Shen Tingshuanh pointed to the moon cakes on the table: "Eat and watch." 
 
Qin Yueze didn't pay much attention to the projectors. But hearing the opening song, he paused eating the moon cakes, and then saw the screen in front of him: "No, let's look at another one?"  
 
"Why, didn't you act in this?" Also many fans recommended this movie.
 
He filmed this when he was young, so he couldn't bear to look at it straight, but Qin Yueze still watched it together with her.  
 
Not to mention the plot, Qin Yueze's appearance alone can hold up the whole show, Shen Tingshuang ate moon cakes while watching, and drink a sip of red wine from time to time.  
 
She felt happy.  
 
There was a scene in the play where Qin Yueze and the princess kiss each other. 
 
In fact, this scene was taken by a substitute actor at the time. 
 
Seeing this, Qin Yueze raised the red wine glass in embarrassment and took a sip. 
 
Perhaps the taste of the red wine itself was not very good, but after adding the grapes, the faint grapes aroma and sweetness came out.  
 
The kiss took a long time and Qin Yueze wanted to explain the method of filming at that time.  
 
But Shen Tingshuang didn't ask anything, she just stared at the screen happily with an expression afraid of missing something, so Qin Yueze didn't say anything in the end.  
 
The wine in his mouth suddenly became astringent.  
 
Watching the entire movie, two persons ate a whole moon cake.  
 
It was not unpalatable but nuts were high in calories. Qin Yueze was on a strict diet while Shen Tingshuang's attention was all on the movie.  
 
Qin Yueze glanced at the time, it was already 10 o'clock in the evening.  
 
Because of drinking, Qin Yueze left his car here and asked Ai Ming to picked him up.  
 
Waiting for Ai Ming, Qin Yueze said: "I watched you plant a lot of vegetables and fruits recently. Last time, this mountain didn't have so many things."
 
Shen Tingshuang: "Yes, I have to work hard to make money."
 
"Are you short of money?" 
 
Shen Tingshuanh nodded. She needed millions of yuan to complete the task. 
 
Qin Yueze knew that Shen Tingshuang's fruits were really delicious so he said: "Have you ever thought about having fruits takeaways?" 
 
"Takeaways?" 
 
Original owner grew up in the village when she was young. And when she was in Shen house, how could any takeaways be taken back? Shen family didn't need to order takeaways, so she never came into contact with them.
 
Qin Yueze explained what a takeaway was and then said: "If you think its okay, I will ask someone come to talk to you tomorrow." 
 
"Okay!" In order to express her gratitude, Qin Yueze was given a big bag of fruits when he left.  
 
When he got on the car, Qin Yueze turned back his head to her: "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival." 
 
...
 
The next day, when the staff came to talk to Shen Tingshuang about the takeaway, Shen Tingshuang felt that Qin Yueze was really a person with super efficiency in keeping his words.  
 
"Hello, Miss Shen, I am Du Yiheng, the business manager of Meow Meow Food Delivery Company. If you are willing to put your fruits and vegetables on our platform, you can sign this agreement with us, and we will do follow-up training. If you have any questions, you can contact me."

 
Shen Tingshuang: "Will this be troublesome?"
 
Du Yiheng took out his cell phone: "I will open the app for you. If a customer places an order for your fruit, you can click the button in the background to receive the order. Once the order is received, our delivery staff will come to pick up the fruit. You only need to prepare the fruit that needs to be delivered."  
 
"So simple?" Shen Tingshuang found that this seemed to be simpler than express delivery. You didn't even need to print the customer's address. 
 
"Yes, but the delivery scope can only be within nearby villages. A little further away requires special errands." 
 
Du Yiheng carefully explained to Shen Tingshuang the rules and operation methods of the platform. 
 
Shen Tingshuang directly signed the agreement. These platform turnover was fast, the customer would confirm the goods as soon as they receive it, and the money would be released in her account. Moreover, this was introduced by Qin Yueze, so she could trust it. 
 
"As a new user, we will give you free promotion within this month, and the coupon is also a platform subsidy."
 
"Okay." 
 
...
 
Meow Meow Takeaway was very efficient. After signing the agreement with Shen Tingshuang in the morning, Shen Tingshuang's store was put on the list in the afternoon.  
 
The pictures of fruits were already available on Shen Tingshuang's phone, which could be uploaded directly to the app. 
 
As a result, there was an order prompt as soon as the fruits were put on the shelves.  
 
Shen Tingshuang took a look, and found somebody ordered a catty of grapes at a distance of ten kilometers from her.  
 
It was not that the other party ordered very little but Shen Tingshuang once again set purchase restrictions. 
 
Shen Tingshuang picked a catty of grapes and the delivery staff came over. Shen Tingshuang gave him the grapes and looked at the delivery staff movement on the map. The motorbike that he rode was getting closer and closer to the customer's position.  
 
After a while, her app prompted that the customer has received the fruit.  
 
...
 
The first customer to place an order was a resident some distance away from Xin Yuan Shan.  
 
He liked to eat the fruits of Xin Yuan Shan, but he went to his office early every day, and he couldn't go to Super Mall to buy it. He could only get up early to queue up on weekends.  
 
Today he was planning to see if there was any delicious takeaway for afternoon tea, but didn't expect a new store to attract his attention.  
 
After he clicked in, he found that it was Ah Shuang's shop.  
 
He remembered that the anchor who farmed in Xin Yuan Shan was called Ah Shuang. He clicked into the shop and found that the address was really in Xin Yuan Shan.  
 
After thinking about it, he planned to make an order for a taste. Originally, he wanted to choose grapes and kiwis, but the purchase was restricted, so he simply bought only grapes.  
 
Soon, the grapes arrived, and when he received it, he found that the grapes looked really the same as those sold by Super Mall.  
 
The next step was the taste. After he washed the grapes and fed them into his mouth, he was immediately sure that they were Super Mall's grapes!  
 
He immediately told his friends around him this news. But many people find that there was no such shop in their area.  
 
They found the takeaway store did not serve customer from far distance for the time being, which was a bit of a disadvantage.  
 
...
 
During the live broadcast at night, many fans were asking Shen Tingshuang about Meow Meow Takeaway.  
 
Shen Tingshuang: "Yes, that is also my shop, but it is still limited. I heard that it can only be delivered to the surrounding area. I am not sure about the next step." 
 
Many fans went directly to the official WeChat account of Meow Meow Takeaway and requested for Xin Yuan Shan service area to be broadened even if there would be a little more delivery fee.
 
Before going to bed at night, Shen Tingshuang asked: "System, what is the task tomorrow?"
 
"The host's influence exceeded 5 million within ten days." 
 
Shen Tingshuang sat up and said, "Influence? How to measure this?" Also 5 million, it felt like a huge amount. 
 
"The current calculation method is based on the host's certain treasure store, Meow Meow takeaway store, and Weibo followers. The one with highest number of fans will be selected as the estimated influence value." 
 
Shen Tingshuang opened her Weibo, and the follower’s column was 4 million: "In other words, in ten days, I have to add 1 million more followers?" 
 
"Yes, that's right."  
 
Shen Tingshuang was stunned. To be honest, she didn't know how these followers rose. Although the live broadcast was opened every day to increase fans, she didn't know which time it rose more and which time it raised less.
 
Shen Tingshuang posted a Weibo: [Ah Shuang who Farms: I can't help but ask, this Weibo, how you can quickly increase followers?] 
 
Soon netizens commented.  
 
[Buy fans.] 
 
Shen Tingshuang read it out and was directly rejected by the system: "Buying fans is judged to be cheating and is not counted in the task volume."
 
Shen Tingshuang: "..."
 
She continued to look at the next comment.  
 
[Ah Shuang, if you post a few more times on Weibo the fans will rise up.]
 
[A sincere suggestion. Ah Shuang, your fruit is delicious. If you use Weibo to draw a lottery, forwarding and following will allow more people to follow you.] 
 
Shen Tingshuang asked the system: "Is this method okay?" 
 
System: "Yes." 
 
Many people under this comment were saying that if the lottery prize was huge, more followers would be attracted. 
 
...
 
Just when Shen Tingshuang was still struggling, the comments on the Weibo she posted almost reached ten thousand. 
 
Some netizens directly wrote down the steps to do Weibo lottery draw with pictures attached. 
 
To save a lot of effort, Shen Tingshuang directly saved this picture.  Next, she started to set up a lottery following the guide. 
 
The system: "Aren't you waiting for tomorrow?"  

 
Shen Tingshuang: "The mission will be released sooner or later. If I can increase influence to 5 million sooner, maybe I can add more missions."
 
System: "..." The host was getting more and more skillful. 
 
-----
 
The author has something to say: 
 
Qin Yueze: Listen to my explanation... 
 
Shen Tingshuang: Ah? 
 
Qin Yueze: That kiss, actually...
 
Shen Tingshuang: It was very beautiful. 
 
Qin Yueze: ???
