Chapter 291 You can know a person's face but not their heart
Meng Qingyin didn't want to argue with Zhang Yan, so she casually pulled Chen Leying and the others into Zhang Yan's group chat.
[The person who drank strong liquor to drown their sorrows has joined the group chat.]
Chen Leying has joined the group chat.
[The energetic old man has joined the group chat.]
[I'm the lucky one (poor guy version) joining the group chat.]
Zhang Yan: "@IamTheLuckyOne (Poor Version), Lu Cheng, what are you doing here? Who dragged you in?"
I'm the Lucky One (Poor Man's Version): "What, you're not welcoming me?"
Zhang Yan: "Isn't this obvious?"
I'm the Lucky One (Poor Man's Version): "I'm here even if you're not welcome!"
[Group leader Zhang Yan kicked me, the "Lucky One (Poor Guy Version)," out of the group chat.]
Lu Cheng immediately messaged Meng Qingyin: "That bastard kicked me out, Mengmeng, pull me back!"
Meng Qingyin: "..."
[I, the lucky one (poor guy version), have joined the group chat.]
I'm the Lucky One (Poor Man's Version): "Hahaha, Zhang Yan, you didn't expect this, did you? I'm back!"
[Group leader Zhang Yan kicked me, the "Lucky One (Poor Guy Version)," out of the group chat.]
[I'm the lucky one (poor guy version) joining the group chat.]
I'm the Lucky One (Poor Man's Version): "Want to kick me out? No way! Not even a window!"
[Group leader Zhang Yan kicked me, the "Lucky One (Poor Guy Version)," out of the group chat.]
...
The two kept pulling at each other, you kick and I score, you kick again and I score again.
The two childish kids weren't annoyed, but Meng Qingyin, who was in charge of recruiting people, was.
Mengmeng: "@Zhangyan @IamLuckyEmperor (Poor Version) Are you two ever going to stop?"
Zhang Yan: "Exactly! Lu Cheng, are you ever going to stop?"
I'm the Lucky One (Poor Man's Version): "Hey, I have a short temper! You, surnamed Zhang, are you lying through your teeth?"
Mengmeng: "Shut up, all of you!"
The two of them finally quieted down.
Meng Qingyin began to get down to business.
Mengmeng: "I'll give you some scallions in a bit."
I am the lucky one (poor man's version): "I have to decline. I still vividly remember the time I was so burned by scallions that my eyes and nose were running. I don't want to see scallions for the time being."
Mengmeng: "It's a mutated scallion. It's not spicy but has a faint fragrance that can calm the nerves and relieve fatigue."
I'm a lucky guy (poor guy version): "I want more!"
Mengmeng: "There's one more thing. We've found the person behind Chen Jinliang. It's that veterinarian, Zhou Xing. But when I got to the veterinary hospital, he had already disappeared."
Drowning his sorrows in strong liquor: "Huh? It was him? Wasn't he always treating animals for free? I never imagined... he was also involved in such dirty deals behind the scenes."
Chen Leying: "You can know a person's face but not their heart."
The elderly man said, "I've never seen this person before, but I'll keep an eye out for him."
Mengmeng: "I have Luling's contact information. She will let me know if there are any updates on her end."
Since Lu Ling is going to rescue animals, she will inevitably be targeted by Zhou Xing and his gang.
In a transaction like this, Zhou Xing couldn't possibly be acting alone; it must be a group with vested interests. Otherwise, Chen Jinliang wouldn't be so wary of them, even with his indestructible body.
Animals are a cash cow in their eyes, and they certainly won't let such a good opportunity pass them by.
Fei Qiu: "By the way, how are our plants growing now?"
Last time, Meng Qingyin grew a mutant bean sprout that could release growth factors to accelerate crop growth, so everyone put all their plants on her side.
Mengmeng: "...I haven't had a chance to look yet, I'll go take a look now."
As soon as she returned, Qingfeng first gave her the good news that the mutated scallions could calm the nerves and relieve fatigue. Then Zhang Yan started a group chat to compete with Lu Cheng for the title of "King of Childishness of the Year". It was only after their battle came to an end that she had the opportunity to tell everyone about Zhou Xing and the mutated scallions.
That's because I didn't have time to watch it.
Fei Qiu: "It feels like everyone is exhausted by the Chen Jinliang incident."
Zhang Yan: "What plants? Do you keep all your own plants with Mengmeng? Why? Why didn't I know about this?"
I'm the Lucky One (Poor Man's Version): "Oh dear, your plant isn't in Mengmeng's car? Looks like Mengmeng still doesn't consider you a true friend... Tsk tsk, some people are really pathetic!"
Zhang Yan: "Hehe."
[Group leader Zhang Yan kicked me, the "Lucky One (Poor Guy Version)," out of the group chat.]
The group chat immediately fell silent.
Meng Qingyin quickly arrived at the planting room, and was stunned by the sight of the entire carriage full of bean sprouts as soon as she entered.
During her absence, Qingfeng actually cultivated so many mutated bean sprouts?
Looking again at the plants in the terracotta pot, most of them were already mature, with only the garland chrysanthemum and romaine lettuce still a little undercooked.
Meng Qingyin was pleasantly surprised: "These crops are growing so fast!"
Is it really time to complete Task Two in just a few days?
Qingfeng looked up upon hearing this: "Yes, it's all thanks to the mutated bean sprouts. The remaining garland chrysanthemum and romaine lettuce will be ripe by tomorrow morning."
Meng Qingyin nodded, but she was thinking about something.
Once the crops are ripe, she can plant more leafy greens. With the help of the mutated bean sprouts, a batch can be harvested in just a few days. With a seed collector in hand, she won't have to worry about running out of seeds.
When the time comes, you can keep the mature leafy greens for your own consumption or sell them in the trading hall.
Moreover, her spatial ring is large enough that vegetables won't spoil when placed inside.
However, it would be a waste to grow your own using only mutated bean sprouts.
Ideally, players should take advantage of the mutated bean sprouts' ability to accelerate plant growth to make some money, since most players are currently stuck on task two – planting and harvesting ten different crops.
This is the perfect opportunity to make money from mutant bean sprouts.
There are two different options. One is like Chen Leying and her group, where players can put plants in her car and she can charge a small "management fee". Players would probably be happy to do this in order to complete the task as soon as possible.
However, this means there are too many plants to care for, and watering is just the least important part of it.
The most troublesome part is recording each player's crops and returning them one by one after they mature.
Moreover, her car doesn't have that much space. Perhaps she could expand the space by upgrading the cabin, but the effort required would deter her.
Let's not make trouble for ourselves. Who knows what the next task will be?
Another option is to sell the mutated bean sprouts directly, but Meng Qingyin thinks this option is even worse than the first one.
Mutant bean sprouts can have a greater than 2 effect when they are clustered together. However, once they are separated, although they can still promote plant growth, the effect is greatly reduced.
After much thought, Meng Qingyin couldn't come up with a good solution, so she had to abandon the idea of maximizing the profits from the mutated bean sprouts.
But business came knocking on our door.
