Chapter 150: Chapter 150: FRUIT PRODUCTS 2

"With apples, by eating them there are many benefits, but I will only share a few. It boosts brain health and protects the heart, which causes a lot of problems for a lot of people. Treating the heart is expensive, so we must do everything that we can to prevent such situations from happening; that is getting sick.

It helps regulate the bowel movement, and lowers the fats in our body which means that those who are fat might lose weight, though a lot of work other than consuming apples would be needed," Calista didn’t forget to reveal this vital information to the couple.

They should understand the benefits of what they were eating except for them being delicious.

After talking about apples, she moved on to lemons.

"This is a lemon and, as you can see, it’s yellow. This can be called a sour sister of an orange. It’s sour and makes the teeth ache when eaten directly. However, despite being sour, lemons are good for us. We can use them to make tea, and juice or add them to bring flavor to the dishes.

At the same time, they help lower the risk of heart disease, lower blood pressure, help in weight loss, promote skin elasticity and freshen one breath. We can use the flesh and the skin. The seeds we plant and have more trees. It’s as simple as that.

Of course, tasting it right now, I wouldn’t dare. You would need to turn it into something else first. And remember to add some bit of sugar, to lessen the sourness. The skin can be applied on the skin."

Although she loved tasting fruits, eating a raw lemon wasn’t her thing at all. Wait for it until it is added to something and then she can eat.

The elders laughed heartily upon hearing Calista’s last statement. She was still as playful as ever.

After that, she introduced the orange and labeled its benefits that she knew wowing the couple.

What all of them had in common was that they were healthy and promoted the eater’s health in any way necessary.

The couple also noticed these wonderful benefits and couldn’t help but be tempted.

"Dear, with such wonderful benefits, these fruits can bring us. If we share this kind of knowledge with the villagers, don’t you think that it would benefit us?"

Calista nodded, agreeing to Ma Susan’s train of thought.

"That’s why I came here. The benefits are simply good and by consuming these fruits, we might save a lot of money for medical bills. And people might live a bit longer as well. Since I know this, I came to you right away with an idea. I was wondering what you might think about it!"

Upon hearing that, the two elders’ eyes lit up, and they hurriedly urged, "Tell us!"

And that is exactly what she was waiting for.

"I was thinking that as a village we can plant an orchard, and have these kinds of fruit trees planted. It might take two or more years for them to start eating fruits, but once they start, I can assure you that we will be the people that will benefit the most," Calista started explaining her freshly thought idea to the couple.

"When the time comes, not only can the villagers have ample fruits to eat but these fruits can also be used to make a lot of things. These products can be sold for money. The orchard can be considered another source of money for the villagers."

Calista went on to explain further and break down what she planned to do once there were fruits available, even now when they weren’t planted yet.

When the couple listened to what she was saying, their eyes kept sparkling with anticipation. After exhausting herself to explain, the couple was already convinced.

"Dear, this project sounds feasible. Although it’s a long-term one, at least it would benefit the villagers for a long time."

"Not only that, but other villages can benefit from it as well. With you knowing how to use these fruits, these villages will have no choice but to cooperate with us."

"Exactly. So, for now, I am thinking about talking about this with the councilor when he comes. Didn’t he want to see the prosperity of all villages?"

"Um, he would be happy seeing that, but won’t that be too much for you?"

"Nope, it won’t. Who said that I can aid other villages for free?" with a sneer on her face, she asked.

"You ...."

"Hehe, I will provide the tree seedlings, and those who are interested would have to bleed to get them. I am not a saint!" Calista might like being charitable, but that was for her village only.

The rest. She didn’t owe them anything, so why should she provide her things for free?

Even her villagers needed to pay at times to get what they wanted from her, so why show mercy to outsiders?

When the couple heard that, they didn’t oppose but greatly supported the idea.

In the end, the three of them talked a lot about this project and Ba Susan agreed to convince the villagers. After all, the orchard’s targeted location was the mountain. The mountain that the whole village owns. Which meant that every villager owned a share. So, they needed to agree to it first. This way, everyone would contribute.

Of course, the seedlings, the village, would have to buy from Calista. This time, she wasn’t going to do anything for free.

Continuous free feeding wasn’t a good and healthy thing to do.

Once she starts making them pay, disaster would fall on her.

She didn’t want to raise wolves in sheep’s clothing.

After the discussion, Calista left the fruits and carried her basket back to her manor, where she started thinking of the methods of bringing the seedlings she promised.

Once the news spread, she didn’t doubt that people would start looking for the fruit seedlings. She needed something to show for it and convince that official when he came.

She didn’t need to worry about someone stealing her ideas. So, what if they do steal her ideas?

Can they utilize all fruits in the way that she wanted?

She just hoped not.
