Chapter 67 Developing Side Hustles



"Okay," the cat said.

Jiu Yunchi was clearly dissatisfied with her ambiguous statement and waited for her reply.

Cat waved her hand impatiently, "Okay, you've convinced Cat!" Then she muttered, "You're like an old man."

Jiu Yunchi was relieved.

He returned to his desk, grabbed only his phone, and prepared to leave. "I have a schedule later, so I'll leave two bodyguards for you."

Cat nodded, then suddenly asked, "Is Ah Jin a member of the Eight Gates? Is she from the Mu family?"

Jiu Yunchi stopped in his tracks. Instead of answering the cat's question directly, he asked in return, "Do you like Mu Jin?"

Cat thought for a moment, feeling that Jiu Yunchi's question was unnecessary, yet there was some deeper meaning she didn't understand. She said, "Of course I like A-Jin!"

Jiu Yunchi looked at her intently and said, "The Mu family is the Feng Clan, now the head of the Eight Clans. If you still want to pursue Mu Jin, don't reveal that you are a member of the Jing Clan."

Cat didn't quite understand. She wondered, "Can an angel turn into a devil because of amnesia?"

By the time she came to her senses, Jiu Yunchi was already gone.

"Why are you walking so fast?" Cat asked, still wanting to ask what "chasing Mu Jin" meant...

Since Jiu Yunchi had left, Maomao no longer needed to stay in this dull office. She made a brief appearance at Jincheng Entertainment, and then took Chen Doudou on a tour of most of the city to the largest agricultural and sideline product purchasing and sales base in the suburbs.

Chen Doudou stared at the cat in disbelief. "Boss, you're not really planning to start a side business, are you? And such a down-to-earth one at that..."

The cat gave her a disdainful look. "What do you know? This is something that humans can never get rid of. You can't see it growing from the ground, but it will appear on your dinner table. Humans can only stop eating grains if they become immortals."

Chen Doudou nodded blankly. Even though she was a vegetarian chef by family tradition, she had never farmed before...

The cat went straight to the seedling cultivation base and bought almost all the seedlings it could find!

Chen Doudou couldn't help but ask, "Boss, where are you going to plant all these seedlings? Are you going to turn your pasture into farmland?"

The cat stopped abruptly and looked at Chen Doudou, "You've reminded me..."

She bought so many seedlings that they would bear fruit quickly in her space. It would be easy to fool her once or twice, but how would she explain to people where her spiritual plants came from after a long time?

The two young girls were strolling along when a group of people walked towards them!

Those people seemed to be on an inspection tour, and there were many cameras following them. Chen Doudou quickly pulled the cat away to avoid them.

"No matter what they do, it's definitely the right thing to do to avoid them," Chen Doudou said. Having followed Feng Ying'er for so long, she was quite quick-witted!

"Oh." The cat didn't seem to notice.

However, they bypassed that area and took a side road instead. Unlike other places, this place was deserted. Although there were shops open for business, there wasn't a single person to be seen on the narrow road.

Unfortunately, they walked for a long time but still couldn't find a way out.

Just as the two decided to return the way they came, they heard a surprised voice beside them say, "Isn't this the little girl from the Jiu family?"

The cat stopped and turned to look.

She saw an old man in a long robe standing in front of a shop, beckoning her over.

"Oh, it's you!" The cat recognized him too; he was the old man from the Ye family, Dr. Ye's father.

"Hahaha, little girl, it's a wonder you still remember this old man." Old Man Ye laughed heartily, amused by the cat's reaction.

Other younger people are always very respectful and cautious when they see him, but when Maomao sees him, she treats him like an ordinary old man, not only without discrimination, but also with the feeling of a little old friend. It's really strange.

“That gluttonous old man,” Maomao said. When Dr. Ye was treating her leg, he mentioned this old man many times, and each time he was craving her peaches.

Old Man Ye was taken aback, then burst into laughter, “Hahahaha…that’s right, all I’ve ever loved is eating, I have no other hobbies.”

Just then, an old man came out from inside. He seemed to know Old Man Ye quite well. "Old Man Ye, who is this?"

Old Man Ye didn't say much, just "a young friend."

The old man looked at the cat in surprise. Clearly, the person whom Old Man Ye called "young friend" was no ordinary person.

"Little girl, what are you doing here? This isn't a place for young people to hang out," Old Man Ye asked.

He was about to leave, but then he took the cat back to the shop behind him.

The cat said, "Buy seedlings."

Old Man Ye's eyes lit up. "What kind of seedlings did you buy?"

There are many more...

The cat didn't do anything stupid; it just picked out a few things that could be grown at this time of year.

"Oh, they're just ordinary seedlings." After listening, Old Man Ye said. "Come here, I'll show you these."

As he spoke, the old man led the cat out through the back door and into a greenhouse. However, this greenhouse was clearly much more luxurious than a normal one! It was filled with high-tech equipment, and each square meter was divided into a unit with a dedicated technician who was always there to watch over it and record data.

"What's going on?" Cat looked at the people in confusion.

Old Man Ye said, "These seedlings are very fragile. If the environment changes even slightly, they may change their nature."

As he said this, the old man gave the cat a meaningful look.

Cat happened to receive that look and thought to herself, "Is the old man trying to test me?"

She squatted down and examined the seedlings carefully.

Chen Doudou squatted down as well and asked in a low voice, "Boss, what does 'change of nature' mean? What properties can seedlings have?"

The cat glanced at her and said simply, "If they are not taken care of properly, they will become just ordinary seedlings outside. If they are taken care of properly, they will attain enlightenment."

Chen Doudou was still completely bewildered, even more confused than before.

But the old man's eyes shone brightly! He laughed heartily, "That's a good explanation! You've attained enlightenment! Little girl, you really are a person with good fortune."

The cat didn't make a sound.

She was quickly writing a script for herself.

The greenhouse that Old Man Ye brought her to was actually cultivating spiritual plants! The air inside the greenhouse was condensed and compressed through multiple calculations, resulting in a high concentration of spiritual energy!

No wonder this street is so deserted; it seems that only those who share the same interests can enter this alley.

Chen Doudou dragged her around aimlessly, and they stumbled upon this place by sheer chance! This led to her bumping into the old man.

So, there's no point in hiding some things anymore.

"Little girl, who taught you how to farm?" Old Man Ye asked, showing no impatience and great patience.
