Xia Shige picked the fruits diligently. Every time his basket was full, he would carry it to the shore and then return to continue digging and picking.
The white cat lay leisurely on the shore, watching Xia Shige working in the lotus pond and teasing the river crabs that crawled ashore from time to time.
Xia Shige worked for the whole afternoon. Looking at the lotus pods and lotus roots piled up on the shore, she felt a great sense of accomplishment.
Then she thought about it, and picked a lot of lotus buds that were about to bloom and piled them together on the shore.
After finishing all this, Xia Shige walked to the shore and sat there to rest.
She took a lotus pod, peeled it open, and threw a lotus seed without the core into her mouth. A sweet taste immediately spread from the tip of her tongue.
Xia Shige went to the warehouse, took out a lot of boxes, mixed the lotus roots and lotus pods together, packed them into gift boxes, and each gift box contained two lotus buds that were about to bloom.
She put this specially made lotus gift box on the shelves in Taoyuan store, priced at 10,000 yuan per piece.
The global drought has lasted for more than a year, and aquatic plants such as lotus are basically extinct. Even companies engaged in indoor farming and animal husbandry will not spend resources and energy on these, so Xia Shige's place is unique.
Hundreds of lotus gift boxes were sold out immediately after they were put on the shelves, and several old customers placed orders in batches of ten.
Xia Shige's account was flooded with messages, with many customers who missed out on the chance to buy the lotus flowers and leaves asking her to restock. There were also many customers who wanted to purchase the lotus flowers and leaves separately.
Xia Shige happily asked Bai Mao to arrange the shipment, and then he ran to the lake again to dig and pick some more.
Just as Xia Shige was bending over to dig lotus roots in the mud, his fingers suddenly touched something round.
Xia Shige was stunned for a moment - this didn't feel like lotus root!
She dug out the round object with some doubts, and after cleaning the mud on it with lake water, she found that it was a round white porcelain bottle the size of a ping-pong ball.
This porcelain vase is as warm and delicate as mutton-fat white jade, emitting a faint and soft light all over, like a fine work of art.
The mouth of the bottle is covered with a layer of oil paper, and a bottle cap that matches the bottle is tightly stuffed on the oil paper, sealing the bottle tightly.
Xia Shige opened the bottle with some doubt and found that it contained a few small white beads. At this time, a reminder sounded:
[Congratulations on obtaining: Far Sea Secret Medicine. ]
[Knife wound? Sword wound? Trauma? ]
【Tuberculosis? Cough and asthma? Seven injuries of tuberculosis?】
[Whether it is internal or external injuries, this medicine can cure the disease! However, as the saying goes, medicine is three-point poison, so you should be cautious when using it unless it is absolutely necessary. ]
[Hint: It seems to have drifted from a distant sea.]
[As the saying goes, all rivers flow east to the sea. Please continue to explore the area in Taoyuan Space with your yearning for the distant ocean! ]
Xia Shige was surprised to hear this series of prompt sounds.
Especially the last sentence, which sounded very much like the quest clue to open a dungeon that she had found in the game.
It seems that even if I didn't take the initiative to sail to the other side of the river some time ago, the space would find a way to provide clues and tell me that there are rivers and seas in front of the lake.
Looking at the pearl-like pills in the bottle, Xia Shige walked to the shore and exclaimed to the white cat: "Is this the legendary panacea that can cure all diseases? I feel like I'm in a martial arts novel."
Thinking of what the master had just said about medicine being three parts poison, Xia Shige did not dare to try it rashly. She carefully put away the porcelain bottle in case of emergency.
