As soon as Lin Hu opened the door, he saw a figure standing in front of him, which startled him so much that he slipped and fell backward.
Duan Linzhou reached out and grabbed his arm, pulling him back. Before Lin Hu could react to the feeling of weightlessness as he fell backward, he was pulled back by a force and bumped his head into Duan Linzhou's chin.
Both of them were in pain.
"Why are you scaring people in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" Lin Hu said, rubbing his forehead, somewhat annoyed.
Duan Linzhou didn't know why, but even though he knew Lin Hu had a secret, he never thought of investigating it.
However, when he woke up and found that the bed next to him was cold, he didn't even realize that he was panicking for a moment, and only felt a bit depressed.
So, without thinking, I put on my shoes and went out to look for them. I saw a light coming from under the bathroom door. After knocking on the door for a while without a response, I was about to open the door to check when the person inside opened the door first, which led to the scene we see now.
"I'm getting up to use the restroom."
"Then, then you go ahead," Lin Hu said somewhat guiltily, stepping aside to let the other person pass.
Duan Linzhou didn't say anything and actually went to the restroom.
When he returned, Lin Hu was already asleep. Looking at the other's closed eyes, Duan Linzhou reached out and brushed the hair away from his forehead, his fingers unconsciously stroking the slightly reddened forehead.
It wasn't until the other person murmured that I came to my senses.
He felt something was wrong with him, very wrong, but he couldn't pinpoint what it was.
He didn't figure out what was wrong until he fell asleep, and when he woke up, he put the matter out of his mind.
Lin Hu had been working in the fields for two hours the night before and didn't wake up until noon. Duan Linzhou didn't wake him during that time.
After getting up, Lin Hu hurriedly washed up and prepared to cook, as there were nine mouths to feed.
Seeing that he was very busy, Duan Linzhou came over to help out. By the time it was time to eat, it was already 1 p.m. During that time, he sent them the amount of ginger to cook that day and also mentioned that lunch would be delayed.
Lin Hu didn't give a reason, and some people thought that they had done something wrong, which was why lunch was delayed.
After that, Lin Hu noticed that they seemed to be working even harder. The original plan was for each person to cook 30 pots a day, but they could finish cooking before 8 o'clock, and they would even come over to ask him for more ingredients to cook. Of course, that's another story.
Lin Hu didn't refuse their sudden enthusiasm; he just asked them to add more ingredients when he cooked.
Now that we have corn, we can make corn oil, corn starch, and corn flour.
The perfect soil for growing corn and vegetables, with both a spring and nutrient solution, allows for harvesting every 12 hours.
In the evening, Lin Hu used corn oil, dried red chilies, ginger, and cucumber to make a crayfish dish. Because he didn't have Sichuan peppercorns and garlic, the flavor wasn't quite right, but it was still alright.
Lin Hu kept two jin (1 kg) for himself and distributed the rest to the others. Since there were only crayfish and the portion was small, Lin Hu also provided them with rice and squeezed peach juice to share.
This peach tree is newly grown in the secluded countryside. It's the same size as the previous tree, but it's not as exaggeratedly tall, reaching straight to the sky. It's only about three stories high. The fruit it bears is the same size as the previous one, and it can produce more than 20 fruits at a time.
Linhu stores half of its products in warehouses and sells the other half. Although the prices are a bit high, those who have tried it know its benefits, so the repurchase rate is very high.
After they finished eating the crayfish, Duan Linzhou told him about the profits he made from putting all the nightlights on the shelves that day.
Because the night light had already attracted a lot of attention when it was first released, the Duan Linzhou night light sold out instantly as soon as it was put on the shelves.
This time, Duan Linzhou managed to get 7 crystal cores, and they were all snapped up.
The final profit from selling all the nightlights was 4,620 level 3 crystal cores and 80 diamond chests.
This quantity was clearly controlled by Duan Linzhou.
Actually, some people wanted to exchange level 1 and 2 crystal cores. They originally planned to ask how many level 1 and 2 crystal cores would be enough to reach the standard of 7 level 3 crystal cores, but in an instant, they were all snapped up by people who had prepared level 3 crystal cores and were waiting in front of the screen.
For the next two days, Lin Hu and Duan Linzhou were busy farming, raising livestock, and opening treasure chests.
Lin Hu also bought potato and cabbage seeds from other people's trading market and extracted them on the island, which suddenly gave him a lot of new food. You know, there are no less than 100 ways to cook potatoes. He directly bought a large number of seeds to extract on the island and planted them on all the empty land that the system had previously cultivated on the island. Only some cultivated land was left.
There was a lot of land behind, but Lin Hu was too lazy to cultivate it. He did see that there were modern machines in the mall that could automatically cultivate land, but they cost 5,000 level 3 crystal cores.
He didn't have that much, and if he used it first and paid later, he would feel like he was being chased by a mountain of debt. Seeing that he had enough for now, he decided not to buy any more and would wait until he had more crystal cores.
