The holiday ended quickly, and after giving some of the fruit to his father, Glek went back to school.
Mr. Carl did not disappoint his son and quickly identified the sales target.
Even though the family is now in decline, they still know a few wealthy and powerful families. Especially since their son was admitted to the Interstellar Military Academy, those families they didn't used to associate with have gradually started to socialize with them again.
Everyone knows that the Interstellar Military Academy is the best school in the entire interstellar space. All the students there are selected from among the best, and graduates of the Interstellar Military Academy have a bright future ahead of them.
In three days, Mr. Carl sold 10 apples, 10 pears, and 2 watermelons, earning a total of 400,000 interstellar coins.
While 400,000 interstellar coins may seem insignificant to nobles and the wealthy, it still represents a year's income for their families.
Not to mention that the fruit sold was only a small portion; if all of it were sold, they could earn at least several million interstellar coins.
After making money, Mr. Carl took his wife to the mall and went on a shopping spree, buying all the things Mrs. Carl would normally be reluctant to buy.
When Mrs. Carl got home, her face was still full of excitement: "Honey, this kind of life is just too wonderful."
Since getting her son accepted into the Interstellar Military Academy, in order to prevent him from being mistreated at the academy, the family's standard of living has plummeted. Mrs. Karl hasn't been able to shop so happily in a long time.
Mr. Carl gently embraced his wife's slender waist: "It's my fault for being useless and not being able to give you the best life. Fortunately, our son is a promising one."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Marrying you is the luckiest thing that has ever happened to me," Mrs. Karl said, giving her husband a playful glare.
Mrs. Carl was of commoner origin and lived on Lingnuo, a planet some distance from the main planet. Through her own efforts, she was admitted to a school on the main planet, where she became classmates with Mr. Carl. The two fell in love, got married, and had children.
The couple had a very good relationship, and Mr. Carl had never let his wife suffer any grievances since they got married.
During that week, Glek ate a total of 3 apples and 5 pears at school, almost one a day. Sometimes, when he was tired from training, he would eat an extra one to reward himself.
When Glek returned home over the weekend and learned the price of the fruit, he was filled with regret.
Wow, he actually ate 80,000 interstellar coins in just a few days! What kind of family is this that dares to eat like that?
Feeling guilty, Glek told his parents about it, expecting a severe scolding from his father, but his father showed no sign of blaming him.
Glek looked at his father, puzzled. "Dad, don't you have anything to say?"
Mr. Carl glared at him: "What do you want me to say? You got it yourself, so eat it however you want. It's none of my business."
He might be a little strict with his son, but he's not that stingy. Buying a mecha worth millions on a whim, his son has a really deep misunderstanding of him.
"Hehe," Glek laughed to cover up his embarrassment.
Then, changing the subject, he asked, "Mom and Dad, didn't you eat any of the fruit I left for you?"
Because the space button couldn't guarantee that the food wouldn't spoil, and they didn't know at first whether the fruits would sell well, Glake only left his parents 10 apples, 10 pears, and 2 watermelons.
He thought that even if they couldn't sell them, the two of them could still finish them, but who knew that his father would sell all the fruit.
This made Glek feel a little guilty. At school, he only cared about satisfying his own appetite, but at home, he couldn't even afford to let his parents taste the food. He was really too unfilial.
Mr. Carl said nonchalantly, "Your mother and I don't like to eat these. Keep them to sell for money."
“You’re kidding, how could anyone not like these delicious fruits? You have to eat them,” Glek washed two apples and stuffed them into his parents’ hands.
"Let's keep it and sell it for money," Mr. Carl said, looking at the apple in his hand with a pained expression.
This one small fruit is equivalent to 100 vials of nutrient solution, so he felt that eating nutrient solution was quite good for him.
Glek looked at Mrs. Carl: "Mom, eat up! This tastes amazing, a million times better than the nutrient solution."
"Don't worry about spending the money. If I can get these things once, I can get them two or three times. Eat them without worry."
“Since it’s a gift from my son, I’ll try it,” Mrs. Carl said with a smile. She knew her son was just being considerate, so she didn’t refuse.
She broke the apple in her hand in half and handed one half to Mr. Carl: "Honey, let's each have half."
"Honey, you're so good to me," Mr. Carl said, looking at his wife with emotion.
My wife is so considerate and loves me so much. I want to work hard to earn money so that my wife can have a better life.
Glek never expected that just eating an apple would lead to his parents showing off their love for him.
Fortunately, he had experienced this kind of thing countless times since childhood and was already used to it. His parents were his true love, and he was an accident.
After finishing their half apples, the Carls were still somewhat unsatisfied, feeling as if they had just tasted the flavor when the apples were gone.
Glek knew this feeling all too well. He simply took out a large watermelon from the system's inventory. The watermelon was so big that he had even tasted it himself.
Mr. Carl hadn't expected that his spendthrift son would open a watermelon without him noticing, but since it was already opened, he could only enjoy it happily.
"Son, this watermelon is even tastier than an apple," Mrs. Carl said with a satisfied look after eating five slices of watermelon.
Glek nodded vigorously: "I think so too, it's really delicious, so fragrant and sweet."
He decided to find a way to trade more all-natural foods with Xia Qingqing. He was extremely excited, wondering if Xia Qingqing had any other delicacies in her possession.
With his son home for the weekend, Mr. Carl and his son sold all the remaining fruit and boxed lunches, and the family's savings balance increased rapidly.
......
On the other side, Gu Yunshu also learned that Xia Qingqing had been matched to a high-level plane and sincerely praised, "An interstellar plane sounds amazing. Qingqing's luck is as good as ever."
Xia Qingqing smiled happily and suggested, "Sister Yunshu, I traded a method for cultivating mental power with a friend in the interstellar dimension. Would you like to cultivate together?"
When Gu Yunshu was matched into the magic plane, he gave Xia Qingqing a lot of good things. She wasn't a stingy person, and besides, teaching the cultivation technique to Gu Yunshu wouldn't cost her anything.
"A method for cultivating mental power? There's such a good thing? Of course I have to practice it!" Gu Yunshu was a little excited and agreed without even thinking.
