Chapter 233: Chapter 232 Lively Little Husky, A New Member!
The ice cream experiment was a success, so it was definitely going to be sold.
Xu Yang had now realized that milk was truly valuable as it could be used to make a variety of foods.
He even considered buying another dairy cow.
The dairy cows had a substantial milk yield, as Xu Yang fed them fresh grass every day, so it was normal for them to produce more milk.
Tomorrow was the big market day, and Xu Yang planned to have his staff make extra ice cream today to sell from the food truck tomorrow.
Conveniently, there was plenty of work at the farm with weeding and fertilizing scheduled for the next few days, keeping everyone quite busy.
Xu Yang decided to go to the market himself.
He wanted to experience what it was like to run a stall.
Xu Yang made four flavors of ice cream, including original, vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate.
The main selling point was the variety of choices.
The ice cream he made was delicate and silky, with a quality that was on par with those top-tier brands.
The most important aspect was that the ingredients were clean, making it comforting to eat.
"Farmer, are you going yourself?"
Wang Wu asked, "It’s quite far to drive the food truck to the market."
Xu Yang nodded, "There’s too much work at the farm, and all of you need to be here. I’ll go this time."
"It’s no big deal, I’ll just experience it."
Indeed, there was a lot of work to do, which required everyone’s effort.
But making money couldn’t be neglected, so he as the boss decided to take the lead himself.
The employees were all quite proactive, and there wasn’t much at the greenhouse that needed Xu Yang’s attention.
The next morning, Xu Yang rode the electric food truck toward the market.
He had prepared a lot of ice cream; if all were sold, he could make a good few hundred dollars.
Business could even break a thousand given the volume of people at the market.
After all, the market was usually crowded with visitors.
The competition for homemade ice cream was rather small, the biggest competitor being a MIXUE Ice City located in the market.
The small town didn’t have many tea shops, but MIXUE Ice City had one and it was doing quite well.
The ice cream at MIXUE Ice City was affordable, with cones costing two dollars each, and cups of ice cream costing six dollars.
Xu Yang priced his homemade ice cream at four dollars a bowl.
Each bowl included four scoops of ice cream, and customers could choose the flavors.
All were handcrafted by him and had been taste-tested by his employees; they couldn’t go wrong.
The ice cream had a particularly rich creamy taste and was delicious, clearly made with quality ingredients.
"Using so much cream and eggs, the cost is about five to six hundred, and I’ll make a profit if sales exceed five hundred," Xu Yang calculated in his mind.
Soon, he arrived at the market.
The market was still bustling.
Merchants who had come to the market had set up their stalls early, selling all sorts of goods.
The stalls were full of products of various kinds.
Many items even had a 90s vibe, especially the small toys and snacks. It was unclear where they sourced their goods, but these stores still existed to this day.
It was only in such a market that one could see these vintage items.
Xu Yang parked his food truck, took out a megaphone, and began to play a sales pitch that Wang Wu had recorded for him.
"Delicious handmade ice cream, four dollars a bowl, great taste, affordable luxury!"
The sound from the megaphone immediately drew many people to Xu Yang’s food truck.
"Handmade ice cream? Could it be delicious?"
Everyone grew curious.
Many took a closer look and saw that the person selling ice cream from the food truck was Xu Yang, which excited them immediately.
"It’s that farmer with millions of followers!"
"Everything from his farm is top-notch!"
"Let’s go check it out!"
Xu Yang’s farm had a significant reputation locally and was rapidly growing, always drawing a crowd.
Moreover, many people knew that the farm collaborated with major clients and grew premium crops not available to the general public.
Some tourists also came over hearing the commotion.
"It’s him, Mountain Rushing Old Xu! He’s actually quite handsome! And he’s personally selling ice cream!"
"Let’s go get a photo with him!"
"Such a big internet star!"
Xu Yang clearly underestimated his own popularity; he hadn’t cared much about the impact of the internet, while in fact, his online popularity was quite high.
Relaxed, calm, tough guy, tamer of wild beasts, farmer, leopard owner, rich man...
He had aspects that people liked.
People crowded around, all very excited.
"Line up, one at a time, no need to rush everyone!"
Xu Yang tried to maintain order.
He had thought it would be as relaxed as when he previously sold mountain goods at the mountain goods market, idly passing the time, handling a few transactions and enjoying an easy day.
But who could have expected such a crowd!
They were all there to buy handmade ice cream.
Xu Yang became busy, scooping ice cream balls while taking photos with people.
He never stopped moving.
"Here’s your ice cream, two chocolate, two vanilla!"
"This one’s for you, one of each flavor!"
"Yours, two vanilla, two original!"
Xu Yang’s good memory helped him handle the crowd without confusion.
Orders kept coming, and the market became lively.
The ice cream made by Xu Yang was indeed delicious.
Rich creamy flavor burst in the mouth, even more authentic than store-bought ice cream.
And since it was freshly made, its texture was indescribably smooth.
Though the weather was somewhat hot, and people were sweating from the crowd,
after eating a few scoops of ice cream, they instantly cooled down.
The ice cream melted in the mouth, soft, creamy, and refreshing with every bite.
"My goodness! This is so tasty!"
The guests’ eyes almost turned into stars after tasting the ice cream.
"What kind of magical place is this that even the ice cream is so delicious!"
"Seems like it’s because his farm is really good."
"Absolutely fantastic!"
As more people gathered, it became apparent that the more popular a place is, the busier it tends to get.
Fortunately, scooping ice cream was quite fast, so he didn’t have to worry about customers waiting too long.
Xu Yang was so busy that he had no time to rest, just continuously taking orders and scooping ice cream.
He was a bit baffled.
What’s going on?
He had seen Wang Wu’s team selling yogurt and doing well, but never to this extent.
It was just a customer every now and then, which looked quite relaxed.
Now here he was, literally surrounded.
Quite a few people were even taking photos with their phones.
He had to shout a few times just to get people to line up properly.
The scene was still lively.
Just scooping and scooping, and before long, the ice cream in all four metal trays was completely sold out!
Xu Yang finally felt relieved.
"It’s all sold out! All sold out!"
"Everyone, please come again!"
"Our farm will show up here from time to time to sell some homemade delicacies, thanks for your support!"
Xu Yang shouted to the crowd.
Many locals, hearing his words, immediately looked forward to more.
"The products from this big farm are really different, they taste so good!"
"From now on, I’ll stick to his farm!"
"I heard they collaborate with big organizations, last year Blueberry was shipped out by the truckload, really impressive!"
"They really have the capability!"
People discussed.
Xu Yang quickly packed up his stall.
While shouting to make way, he rode his electric tricycle, dragging the food cart frame, squeezed out of the crowd, then left as fast as flying.
"Let’s have the staff do this kind of thing in the future."
"It’s a bit too bustling!"
Xu Yang breathed a sigh of relief, lamenting.
He didn’t even have time to check how much he had sold or really rest.
He was basically an unfeeling "ice cream scooping machine"!
Xu Yang took a moment to check the time; he was here for just an hour, and the ice cream was already sold out.
The efficiency was indeed high!
Seeing he still had time, and right next door was the dog and cat pet market, Xu Yang drove straight there to take a look at some dogs and cats.
He had always wanted to host more dogs and cats.
The farm was so big, yet the number of dogs and cats was still small.
Especially cats, there was only Tabby Cat Sang Biao, who was free-range and didn’t allow petting.
Xiao Hua had recently been outside courting his wife.
So, Xu Yang decided to see if there were any cute dogs or cats.
After parking the car, Xu Yang jumped down and headed straight into the dog and cat market.
There were quite a lot of dog and cat sellers here, a real mixed bag.
Most of them were middle-aged and elderly people who, having time on their hands, bred dogs and cats to earn some money.
There were also some professional pet breeders with their own breeding centers, relatively more professional.
The potential of the dog and cat pet market was huge, but there was also a bit of an overabundance of dogs and cats.
Therefore, generally speaking, the prices were not too high.
Xu Yang was just strolling around.
At that moment, at a stall specializing in Huskies, a little Husky very cleverly licked the latch of its cage open and directly escaped.
Seeing the little Husky run, the vendor immediately chased after it.
The puppy wasn’t running fast, and he could catch up in a few steps.
The little guy was smart, running straight towards Xu Yang and then hiding behind him.
Xu Yang looked at this little fellow somewhat astounded.
The eyes of Little Ha were filled with mischief and intelligence.
This creature was a "home-wrecking Divine Beast."
When it came to dogs that wrecked the home, Huskies were definitely iconic.
The vendor bent down and grabbed it.
"You sure run fast!"
The little Husky in the vendor’s hands, looked despondent, but had no means to escape.
Xu Yang became interested.
"Boss, how much for this Husky?"
Xu Yang inquired.
"This one, 300."
The vendor responded immediately.
In the local pet market, the price for a regular Husky was around 200 yuan.
"300?"
Xu Yang stepped forward, took the Husky and looked it over.
There were three flame-like white stripes on its brows, its eyes were pale blue, and its back had very thick fur.
This was definitely a good dog.
Buying dogs in the dog market, the fear was getting a "week dog"—one that kept getting sick within a week and couldn’t be saved no matter what.
Having lived in the mountain village for so long, Xu Yang had some understanding of dogs, so he could judge the quality of the breed.
"Boss, don’t worry. We specialize in breeding Huskies, we have a dedicated store, and all certifications are complete."
"Within a month, if there are any natural diseases, we cover the treatment."
The vendor, seeing Xu Yang’s intent to buy, quickly explained.
"This one is pretty good, very healthy."
Xu Yang held the Husky in his hands, the little guy being mischievous, kept opening his mouth as if to bite, but wasn’t really biting, just liked to play like that.
Already possessing the potential for wreaking havoc.
Healthy body, high aesthetic value, but nowadays the opinion on such dogs was very polarized; those who loved them adored them, those who didn’t thought they were a bit silly.
Especially since some adult Huskies looked rather unsavory and ended up as meme figures.
In reality, the aesthetic value of Huskies was still quite high.
"Okay, I’ll take it."
Xu Yang looked at the little Husky for a while and felt a connection.
So he made a decision.
This Husky hadn’t expected that simply running behind someone would lead it to find a home it could wreck endlessly.
And it was a huge home that it could never completely tear apart.
