The Interdimensional Reseller – CH228

Chapter 228: Crescent Spirit Wine

After checking on the Tree of Life, Chu Feng and Illya went to Shaman Qiu Luo’s infirmary.

“You’re here.” Shaman Qiu Luo greeted them with a smile.

Chu Feng nodded. “Yes.”

“I heard Delice caused you some trouble?”

Chu Feng shook his head. “No, she’s very well-behaved.” Yeah, right.

“As long as she’s behaving.” Qiu Luo paused. “You’re here to pick up wine this time, right?”

Chu Feng nodded. “Yes.”

“It’s all ready. Besides snake wine, I also brewed some other types—tiger bone wine, leopard bone wine. Take some of those too.”

Chu Feng nodded again. “Alright.”

He had been considering expanding the wine varieties, and the had already prepared them.

“I also made some Hundred Fruit Brew, but this batch is special—it has Life Essence in it.”

Illya froze. “You made wine with Life Essence?”

Chu Feng gave him a puzzled look. “Is there a problem?”

Illya shook his head. “No problem.”

In his mind, Life Essence was a sacred thing. Using it in wine felt extravagant.

Qiu Luo understood how he felt. But lately, the Tree of Life was producing plenty of essence, and since Chu Feng hadn’t come in several days, a lot had accumulated—so he used some.

“I didn’t get your permission before using the Life Essence…” Qiu Luo said, a bit embarrassed.

Chu Feng waved it off. “It’s no big deal. There’s plenty now, and more will be produced later.”

Qiu Luo nodded. “Yes, the Tree of Life is producing well.”

Illya tilted his head, realizing he might have overreacted. Crescent Village was no longer the resource-poor place it used to be—Life Essence was no longer untouchably rare.

Chu Feng asked curiously, “So, how’s the effect of Hundred Fruit Brew with Life Essence?”

“It’s about three times stronger than before,” Qiu Luo replied.

Chu Feng: … As expected of Life Essence—it could even triple the potency of Hundred Fruit Brew.

Of course, it made sense. The Tree of Life was consuming one witch stone a day. If the Life Essence didn’t have a strong effect, that would be a real loss.

Chu Feng nodded and said, “I’ll go take a look in a bit.”

Shaman Qiu Luo nodded back. “Alright.”

Illya looked at Shaman Qiu Luo and asked, “Shaman, do you have Shape-Shifting Pills?”

Shaman Qiu Luo nodded. “Yes! Do you need some?”

Illya also nodded. “I do.”

“Have beastmen shown up over there?” Shaman Qiu Luo asked curiously.

Illya nodded. “Sort of.”

…

After visiting Shaman Qiu Luo, Chu Feng headed to Tianhai City.

“Boss, the wine you wanted is ready.”

Chu Feng looked at the wine stored in the warehouse, then glanced at Lan Hu. “Not bad!”

Lan Hu smiled. “It’s alright. I’ve already reached cooperation agreements with the Monkey Clan and the Butterfly Clan. As long as nothing unexpected happens, Monkey Wine and Hundred-Flower Honey Wine will keep arriving steadily.”

Chu Feng nodded. “Very good. I knew I wasn’t wrong about you, Lan Hu—you really are a business genius.”

Lan Hu chuckled. “It’s all thanks to your support, Boss. Before, to collect Green Silkworm Silk, I had to rack my brains. Compared to that, Monkey Wine and Honey Wine aren’t nearly as rare—buying wine isn’t much trouble at all.”

“Boss, do we not need to collect Green Silkworm Silk anymore?” Lan Hu asked.

Chu Feng waved his hand. “No need. I’ve already reached an agreement with the Mulberry Maiden Clan.”

“As expected of you, Boss—you work so efficiently. So, are the women of the Mulberry Clan as beautiful as the legends say?”

Chu Feng snorted. “Beautiful—enchantingly so. If you wander into the mulberry forest at night, you’ll likely see swaths of Mulberry Maiden ‘hanging’ from the trees, enough to scare your very soul away.”

Lan Hu’s eyes were full of longing. “I really want to see them!”

Chu Feng: “…”
Lan Hu might be eager now, but if he actually saw them, he’d probably be scared half to death.

Chu Feng glanced at Lan Hu’s wrist, reached out, and removed the slave ring’s seal.

Lan Hu froze, looked at Chu Feng, and asked, “Boss, you…”

Chu Feng patted him. “The weather’s getting hotter. If you keep wearing that thing, it’ll be hard to hide—just a hassle.”

Lan Hu was full of gratitude. “Thank you, Boss.”

He took a deep breath. Wearing that ring had always been a heavy burden on him.

Chu Feng warned, “Betray me and I’ll cut you down.”
Before, Chu Feng had been wary of Lan Hu’s identity, but now that his own strength had grown, things he once had to consider no longer worried him.

Lan Hu quickly nodded. “Of course, of course.”

…

With three cartloads of wine, Chu Feng arrived at the distillery, where workers were already waiting.

Seeing dozens of vats of snake wine, Zhuang Feixue looked excited.

“With this much snake wine concentrate, we can finally expand production again.”
Previously, 200,000 bottles had sold out in minutes. The feedback afterward was also very positive.

Chu Feng nodded. “Can production keep up?”

Zhuang Feixue smiled. “No problem—we’ve already partnered with several other distilleries.”

“Will you handle the arrangements, sis?”

Zhuang Feixue nodded. “Alright.”

Chu Feng looked at her. “You’re really starting to act like a professional manager.”

Zhuang Feixue: “…”

“Any other kinds of wine?” she asked.

“Of course.”

Chu Feng took out a jar of Hundred-Fruit Brew, opened it, and as soon as the seal broke, a rich aroma filled the air.
Zhuang Feixue immediately felt refreshed.

“This wine smells amazing!” she thought. If just the aroma is this intoxicating, how good must it taste? If Father were here, he’d probably go crazy.

Chu Feng took a swig, his face full of bliss. “Delicious.”

Zhuang Feixue: “…”

Zhuang Cheng, watching nearby, looked eager. “It smells great—let me try!”

Chu Feng glanced at him. “Too strong for you. One sip and you’ll be out cold. Move aside.”

He turned to Zhuang Feixue. “Sis, dilute this twenty times and market it as a premium product.”

She nodded. “Alright. Does it have any special effects?”

Chu Feng thought for a moment. “Beauty and skin care.”

“Really? False advertising could hurt our group’s reputation,” Zhuang Cheng said.

“Reputation? Do we even have one?” Chu Feng asked.

Zhuang Cheng: “…”
The Crescent Group had a good reputation before, but after the “dirty book” incident… not so much.

Zhuang Feixue inspected a few more jars. “This is Flower Honey Wine, and this is Monkey Wine?”

“Yes.”

Her eyes lit up. “Can I take some?”

“Of course. But be careful—most of these concentrates are strong. Drink them undiluted and you might overdo it.”

“I’ll be careful. All our wines will be tested thoroughly by the research institute before hitting the market.”

Chu Feng nodded. “Alright. But honestly, sis, wine’s wine—as long as it doesn’t kill anyone, it’s fine.”

Zhuang Feixue: “…”

…

Crescent Group.

Hang Ming walked out of the CEO’s office looking pleased. In a few days, it would be time for his transformation again—a day that usually brought unbearable pain. But this time, with the medicine in hand, he felt a little relieved.

“Hang Ming,” a voice suddenly called.

Zhan Yi darted out.

Hang Ming looked at him in shock. “You scared me—what is it?”

Zhan Yi looked at Hang Ming and said, “You were sneaking around—did you go to the boss to ask for some wine?”

Hang Ming shook his head. “No such thing.”

“Really no?”

“Really.” Hang Ming shook his head again.

Zhan Yi blinked. “This is allowed, you know.”

Hang Ming gave a wry smile. “I really didn’t.”

The new wine launched by the Group seemed quite remarkable, and he was very interested, but since he had just gotten a Shape-Shifting Pill, he couldn’t exactly ask for more…

After the release of Crescent No.1 Wine, the Crescent Group launched Crescent No.2, No.3, No.6… The prices of these wines ranged from 1,000 to 1,000,000 yuan.

Crescent Group’s wines had excellent flavors. Snake Wine could treat arthritis.

Tiger Bone Wine could strengthen muscles and bones, boost kidney function, and expel cold.

Fruit Wine had great beauty-enhancing effects, while Monkey Wine and Hundred-Flower Honey Wine tasted exceptional…

Zhuang Feixue did a little online promotion, and because Snake Wine had gained a good reputation, everyone was eagerly anticipating the upcoming varieties.
National Bureau of Paranormal Abilities
Shen Yutong looked at the brochure in her hand. “Crescent No.1 Wine, Crescent No.2 Wine, Crescent No.3 Wine… That’s a rather half-hearted naming scheme.”

Qian Jiajia puffed out her cheeks. “It’s said that Chu Feng personally named them.”

Shen Yutong: “…” If it was Chu Feng, then it made sense. This supposedly legendary young CEO of Crescent Group was, at heart, just lazy.

“People outside call all these wines collectively ‘Crescent Number Wines,’” Qian Jiajia said.

Shen Yuxing nodded. “I see.”

“Miss Shen, do you have any insider info?” Qian Jiajia asked.

“What insider info?” Shen Yuxing replied.

Qian Jiajia leaned in with a fawning smile. “Aren’t these wines about to be released? Which one do you think will be the hardest to get?”

Shen Yuxing smiled. “As far as I know, Crescent No.2 is Monkey Wine, and No.3 is Hundred-Flower Honey Wine—both have exceptional flavors.”

Although the wines hadn’t hit the market yet, Zhuang Feixue had already invited several professional sommeliers to assess them, and they gave both of these wines very high praise.

“No.4 and No.5 are Tiger Bone Wine and Leopard Bone Wine, which seem to have certain health benefits.”

“The most amazing one is the last wine,” Shen Yuxing added.

Qian Jiajia’s eyes widened. “What’s the last one?”

“No one knows—it’s kept secret. But it’s supposed to be the most expensive of all, likely brewed from spiritual fruits, probably tied to that mysterious miracle doctor backing Chu Feng,” Shen Yuxing said.

Qian Jiajia nodded. “Got it.”

If it came from that miracle doctor, it definitely wasn’t ordinary. She’d have to get her hands on it.
