Chapter 44: Top-grade ingredient: the leaves of the Noctilucent Vine are diamond-shaped, and during the day...

The leaves of the Noctilucent Ivy are diamond-shaped. They are turquoise in the daytime and fluorescent green at night, as if the wall were inlaid with gems. Its brightness is equivalent to half a street lamp.

There are several vines swaying happily in the air, and whenever a mosquito flies by, it will be knocked down and turned into fertilizer.

After it grew over an entire wall, Xuan Ji stopped injecting energy.

"It's so beautiful!" Su Sanyue said happily. "I plan to have it grow around my yard, and then have robots install pergolas on both sides of the road. It will become a distinctive street lamp on our planet."

Xuan Ji thought about the scene and couldn't help nodding. According to Su Sanyue's idea, this was indeed beautiful.

The system also said: "Host, it can also prevent theft."

"Indeed, I will let it recognize everyone's aura tomorrow. If a stranger appears in the future, it will be beaten away directly." Su Sanyue said.

After working for most of the night, Su Sanyue couldn't help yawning. She gave Xuan Ji two cups of milk tea and a basket of mutant peaches as a thank you gift, then simply washed up and went to bed.

The next morning, Su Sanyue arranged for the robots to build trellises on both sides of the road, delivered a mutant watermelon seedling to Qi Shouqian, and continued her studies for the day.

Although Xuan Ji said that success was almost impossible, one should never be afraid of failure in research. Only by failing many times and accumulating experience can one find the right path.

Su Sanyue did not tell Qi Shouqian about the possibility of failure, as this would easily undermine his confidence and make him interrupt his experimental ideas. It would be better to let him experiment slowly according to his own ideas.

"March, the robot has been banging on the roadside early in the morning. What is it doing?" Lin Wenwen yawned and asked with squinted eyes.

Ever since Lin Wenwen started classes, Su Sanyue no longer allowed her to work at the Chunfeng Shop.

It is estimated that it will take one year to complete the entire course. Su Sanyue is not a stingy boss and she is very supportive of employees who are willing to learn and improve themselves.

Chunfeng Store itself is a small store that can sell goods intelligently, and it can operate on its own even when Lin Wenwen is not around.

"Did you notice anything different in our yard when you woke up this morning?" Su Sanyue asked expectantly.

"It seems like... there's an extra tree?" Lin Wenwen was in a hurry in the morning, but she felt that there was a new green in the yard.

Su Sanyue said mysteriously, "They are our future security guards and street lights."

Lin Wenwen: “???”

After class in the morning, the trellises on both sides of the road in Su Sanyue's residential area were also set up.

After lunch, she called everyone to her yard and said, "Everyone stand here and let it recognize you."

"Who is it?" Zhou Xin turned around and looked around, but didn't see any strangers.

Suddenly, the green vines in front of Zhou Xin moved, and several vines stretched out from the dense green leaves and extended towards the crowd.

"Ah!" Zhou Xin was startled. He stamped his feet and jumped back a few steps, saying, "What is this?"

"Don't panic!" Su Sanyue hurriedly walked up to Zhou Xin and said, "This is a new mutant plant I planted. It has a small amount of intelligence and a certain degree of aggressiveness. It can guard the house."

Everyone: “???”

Under everyone's outrageous and curious gazes, the vine tapped the back of everyone's hand, then retracted and turned back into a motionless plant.

Su Sanyue nodded and said, "Okay, everyone go back and rest."

After everyone left, Su Sanyue immediately copied Xuan Ji's special ability and began to make the luminous vine grow wildly.

The vines climbed out of the yard and climbed onto the trellises on both sides of the road, and the trellises were covered with emerald green leaves.

At night, everyone exclaimed in amazement as they watched the glowing blades illuminate the road surface.

The days passed by busily. Half a month later, Su Sanyue's farmland area increased by several hundred acres. The peach tree grew taller and had a fifth leaf. Another mutant plant was added.

The training over the past half month has naturally improved Su Sanyue's physique and strength.

Everything is going according to plan.

Qi Shouqian's theory of grafting mutant plants onto ordinary plants failed after tens of thousands of experiments.

After being depressed for a few days, Qi Shouqian began to study the differences between ordinary plants and mutated plants, and began to work day and night in the laboratory.

After recruiting Qi Shouqian, Su Sanyue spent half of her savings to build a private laboratory for him according to his request, which was equipped with various equipment.

Qi Shouqian rushed into the laboratory and never came out.

Li Hu paid attention to the news on the front line during his spare time. Taking advantage of the gap after a battle, he contacted Li Xun, the front-line procurement director. The "fishing plan" that Grandma Lanbai had mentioned before had begun.

Li Xun: Captain Li Hu, how are you feeling?

Li Hu: I feel very good now, Lao Li. I sent you something. It should have arrived. It is in your dormitory. Please check it.

Li Xun: What did you send?

Li Hu: You’ll know once you open it. There aren’t many of these things, so don’t give them to others.

Li Xun: Okay, I’ll go back and take a look.

Li Xun, who had just returned to the dormitory, soon saw a big package on the dormitory table.

He was very curious about what Li Hu would send him. You know, he and Li Hu were not very close, but they had been in the same team for a period of time before, so they saw each other every day and got to know each other.

He has been very troubled recently. The soldiers on the front line complain about the bad food every day. Some people would rather drink nutrient solution than eat natural food, but how can nutrient solution compare to the nutrition of natural food?

Now more and more soldiers are suffering from anorexia. His superiors have talked to him several times and asked him to find a solution. He is so worried that he has no choice but to spend a high price to order the best quality goods from the Lin family's farm.

He opened the package sent by Li Hu, which contained five tomatoes, three cucumbers, five corns and four sweet potatoes.

He took out the food, put it aside, sighed, and thought that Li Hu was too stingy. He only sent some of these ingredients that can be found everywhere, and only a few of each kind. It was not enough to fill the gaps between teeth. There were plenty of these ingredients in the warehouse.

"Minister, the Lin family's starship transporting food has arrived and is waiting for you to sign for it." A soldier knocked on Li Xun's door and reminded him.

Li Xun opened the door, took out two tomatoes, stuffed one into the soldier's mouth, and said, "Let's go."

The soldier picked up the tomato, wiped it on his clothes, and said, "Hey, thank you, Minister. I'm a little hungry."

Li Xun tossed the tomato in his hand upwards and said, "Wait until you sign for it before eating it. Don't embarrass yourself in front of outsiders."

The soldier quickly said seriously: "Yes!"

The two came to the port, where two huge transport starships were docked. Robots were unloading cargo, and silver containers were piled up at the port.

Seeing Li Xun arrive, a person in charge of the delivery hurried over, shook hands with Li Xun, and said, "Minister Li, this is this month's goods, please count them."

Li Xun waved his hand, telling the soldiers to go ahead and take inventory. He then said to the transport manager, "Is this the best product from the Lin family's farm?"

The person in charge smiled and said, "It must be the best product. The taste is richer than the previous batch. It will definitely satisfy you."

"Don't fool me. This batch of goods is twice as expensive as the previous batch. If the taste doesn't get any better, I'm going to have a serious talk with the head of the Lin family." Li Xun said, tossing the tomato in his hand.

"How could I have the courage to do that? The soldiers sacrificed their lives and shed their blood on the front line. We all remember it in our hearts. How dare we neglect their food?" said the person in charge.

After a while, the soldier came back to Li Xun and said, "Minister, we've counted three times and confirmed everything is correct."

Li Xun reached out and took the list, signed his name, turned around and went back.

The soldier followed Li Xun and when they reached a deserted place, he took out a tomato and took a bite.

After just one bite, the soldier's eyes widened. He chewed and said, "Minister..."

"What's wrong?" Li Xun turned his head and glanced at him, saying, "This isn't the food the Lin family sent today. It's normal that it tastes bad."

"No, Minister, I have never eaten such delicious tomatoes!" The soldier chewed and sucked the juice of the tomato, eating with relish, and licked his fingers after eating.

Li Xun took a look at the tomato in his hand, wiped it on his clothes, and took a bite.

As soon as the tomato juice enters your mouth, you will get a sweet taste. When you chew it in your mouth, a hint of sourness permeates the flesh, making its taste richer.

Li Xun finished a tomato in a few bites, nodded, and said, "It tastes really good."

"Minister, where do these tomatoes come from?" asked the soldier.

"It was given to me by a friend of mine. He must have gotten the best products from the Lin family. They tasted delicious, so he gave me some." Li Xun said.

"Really? Isn't the batch of goods we signed for today the Lin family's top-quality ingredients?" the soldier said excitedly.

Li Xun thought about it and felt that apart from the Lin family, he had never heard of any farm in the interstellar world that had cultivated any new varieties of agricultural products, so he nodded firmly.

"It's worthy of being an ingredient that costs twice as much. It's so delicious! Can we eat ingredients of this quality in the future?" the soldier asked excitedly.

"Try it first and see the effect." Li Xun said.

“If all our ingredients are of this quality in the future, no brothers will suffer from anorexia,” said the soldier.

"Tell the people in the cafeteria that we will use new ingredients for dinner tonight to change the taste for our brothers." Li Xun said happily.

The soldier quickly told the good news to his good brother, and his good brother told other people in the team. Word spread from person to person, and soon most of the soldiers had heard the news.
