Chapter 26 Chapter 26 [Grow a mysterious plant (1/1...
Seed shop?
Ye Mian paused, then closed the warehouse and clicked on the [Seed Store] function that appeared at the bottom of the system interface.
The interface flashed, and a variety of bagged seeds appeared in front of me, and there were several classification options, namely crop seeds, vegetable seeds, fruit seeds, and tree, flower and grass seeds.
The prices are the same as the vending machine that day, ranging from 100 to 1000 points.
The only difference is that there are no limited-time specials in this seed store, and you can only buy them at the original price.
But it doesn’t matter now. The points were pitifully few before, but now... Ye Mian looked at the cloth bag in Lu Ning’s hand. This was just the beginning. Xie Yi and his group would be able to provide her with more rhenium stones later.
Moreover, there have been no random events for several days, and I don’t know when the next one will be. It would be great to have a stable seed store.
While thinking about it, Ye Mian put all the rhenium stones in the cloth bag into the system warehouse, and then exchanged some for points, and first collected 5,000 points.
"Okay, you can start spending now."
Lu Ning turned around and asked: "Want to buy seeds?"
Ye Mian nodded and slid through the seed store interface to make a selection.
The reason why she had not been in a hurry to plant too many crops in the past two days was, on the one hand, because the spiritual quality value was not high, and on the other hand, the source of seeds was unstable. In the absence of shortage of supplies, she chose to keep some of them to facilitate the completion of the main task later.
Now that we have a seed store and the expected business is going smoothly, we can no longer sit idle like this.
The first seeds to buy are of course seeds of crops that can be used as staple food, such as rice, wheat, corn, potatoes, etc. There is no shortage of sweet potato seeds for the time being, so Ye Mian skipped them and instead bought some peanut and soybean seeds that he had never planted before.
Then they bought some vegetable seeds, such as carrots, cucumbers, pumpkins, leeks, cauliflowers, etc. These were mostly for their own consumption rather than for trading.
Then, Ye Mian clicked on the generally more expensive fruit seeds.
Currently, there are only two kinds of fruits on the farm: peaches and olives, which are definitely enough to eat. However, as the farm is upgraded and the area is expanded, it is no longer necessary to use all the fields for planting as before. Instead, some space can be set aside to create a yard or garden.
Ye Mian picked for a while and finally chose two kinds of fruits——
One is the strawberry that the original body loves to eat but doesn't eat much, and the other is what Xue Kai mentioned by chance. He wanted to build a wooden frame next to the small building and plant some grape vines. When the grapes are ripe and bunches of them hang down, he can sit under the frame and rest while eating grapes.
Both of these require one thousand points, but fortunately they come in packs of ten, which makes Ye Mian a little less painful.
After buying the necessary seeds, Ye Mian and Lu Ning got in the car and returned along the original route.
After arriving, Lu Ning went on to help Chen Jia build the chicken coop. On the other side, Xue Kai was still immersed in the excitement of driving the tractor.
Ye Mian had nothing to do, so he simply took Dahei with him to run a few laps along the expanded farm. This was both a way to exercise his physical strength and a formal inspection of his territory.
As soon as she ran back to the small building, a text box appeared in front of her.
[Grow a mysterious plant (1/1), experience +30, points +30! ]
Um?
Ye Mian raised his eyebrows. Has it finally grown out?
It has been two or three days since the mysterious seed was planted. It seems that it is not a vegetable or a crop, but more like a tree.
However, even though Ye Mian had guessed it in advance, she was still stunned when she walked to the place outside the house where the mysterious seed was planted.
——A tree with lush branches and leaves, taller than her, grew directly on the empty space where nothing had happened not long ago, and plump lavender fruits hung under the branches.
"this……"
This is no longer a mysterious plant, but a magical plant, right?
Ye Mian blinked and came back to his senses, then tried to pick a fruit and put it into the system warehouse, then clicked it to check.
[Cherry: a special fruit, sweet and sour, rich in nutrients]
Cherry fruit?
Isn’t that one of the ingredients you need in a fruit sandwich recipe?
Taking out the cherry, Ye Mian wiped it casually and took a bite. The sweet and sour juice burst in his mouth immediately. The flesh was crispy and a little soft, and the fragrance filled the air while he chewed it.
What is somewhat contradictory is that when eating, you feel that your taste buds are stimulated and you can't help but want to eat more, but after eating one, you do feel a vague sense of fullness.
Just as he thought of this, Ye Mian couldn't help but burp lightly, feeling that the breakfast that had just been digested was filled up again by something else.
In order to verify that this was not her illusion, Ye Mian picked some cherries and found Lu Ning and Chen Jia, letting them try them.
"Hmm... it tastes a bit like plums and cherries, and has a refreshing dessert aroma," Chen Jia gave serious feedback while eating, and after finishing, she carefully felt it again, "It seems that it can really fill my stomach."
Lu Ning seemed to be thinking: "It can not only replenish water, but also be eaten as food. It is very suitable for surviving in the wilderness."
Moreover, this kind of fruit is small, so you can carry a lot with you, which can not only reduce a lot of trouble caused by carrying weight, but also satisfy your appetite.
I believe that those evolvers who are fighting mutants outside most of the time will need it very much.
Ye Mian also had the same idea—this cherry fruit would definitely become a very popular trading commodity in the future.
After confirming the special effects of the cherries, Ye Mian went to the kitchen to get a larger basin and picked all the cherries that ripened instantly. He then packed most of them in plastic bags and stored them in the system warehouse. The rest were taken back to the kitchen, washed, and placed on the dining table.
Perhaps the high number of harvests made up for the low spiritual quality value. When it was almost noon, Ye Mian and Xue Kai, who was tired of playing with the tractor, talked about the seed store, and then when they were picking ripe peaches together, they suddenly got an unexpected harvest.
【Get extra "Three-flavor Peach" X5! 】
"etc……"
"Hmm?" Xue Kai's movements had almost become a habit, and he couldn't stop for a moment, "What?"
Ye Mian took out the three recipes she had put aside from the system warehouse, looked at the special ingredients needed one by one, and then looked at the special ingredients she had sorted into a grid, and then he was stunned for a moment: "It seems that everything is ready."
Moreover, the ingredients needed for the vegetable salad and corn pizza had been collected before, and now the cherries and three-flavor peaches needed for the fruit sandwich were also available. However, she kept thinking that something was missing and forgot about it.
"Hey, isn't that a good thing!"
Xue Kai then stopped and took the recipe and looked at it: "I just happened to be preparing lunch, so let's make it together."
Although he forgot, it didn't seem like a big loss. Ye Mian nodded: "Okay, I'll put all the ingredients in the kitchen."
Then she remembered that she had a side quest to complete, so she added, "Remember to pack them separately after you finish them. I have a quest to complete."
"OK!"
Because the flour needs to be fermented, even though the multi-purpose pot can cook any food quickly, the lunch time today is still a little later than usual.
When Xue Kai brought out the finished product, no matter what the aroma or taste was like, Ye Mian and the other two were attracted by the appearance first. They looked at this and that, and were all a little surprised and unbelievable.
"Did you really do this?" Lu Ning couldn't help but ask.
It's no wonder Lu Ning asked this, because although the three dishes were not specially presented, they inexplicably exuded a sense of expensiveness that could only be found in high-end restaurants, and every side dish seemed to be shining.
Xue Kai groaned, "Yes, but this is not my credit. It's just that those special ingredients look good. Anyone else can make it like this."
This was indeed true. Ye Mian looked at the three finished products one by one. The flame fruit on the corn pizza was bright and eye-catching, the green fruit in the vegetable salad was translucent and moist, and in the fruit sandwich, even the cherry fruit, three-flavor peach and black snow juice sandwiched between two pieces of toast were extremely eye-catching.
"Let me take a look first."
Ye Mian reached out to the small bowls and plates that Xue Kai had divided into several portions, took one of each and put them into the system warehouse before checking them.
【Fruit Sandwich: Delicious Instant Food (Shelf Life: 90 Days)】
[Vegetable salad: crisp and refreshing, it can remove impurities from the body after consumption]
[Corn Pizza: Hot, spicy, sweet, and has the energy of fire]
As expected, they all have special effects, and the fruit sandwiches containing cherry berries can be preserved for three months, which means that even the worry that the fruit will rot if left outside for a long time is eliminated.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to mass produce it at the moment.
Ye Mian closed the system interface and told the three people who looked over to him about the special effects of the three kinds of food.
"I understand the sandwich, but what do the other two mean?"
Xue Kai looked puzzled: "Can removing impurities cure diseases?"
"Hmm..." Chen Jia blinked, "This impurity may refer to pollutants in the land and water?"
"That makes sense. Let's assume that's the case. Then what is this fire-like energy?"
Lu Ning: "Maybe it refers to the special energy of the Evolvers?"
Ye Mian directly took a slice of pizza and said, "You will know after trying it."
Seeing her take action, the three of them were stunned for a moment before they realized with a smile - the food was in front of them, so of course it was for eating!
Because they would feel full after eating the fruit sandwiches, the three of them followed Ye Mian and tried the corn pizza first.
The three people tasted three different flavors - fragrant, spicy and sweet.
Ye Mian looked at them, one was praising the food and saying it smelled good, one was panting because it was spicy, and one was eating so much that his eyes were round, as if he was eating such delicious food for the first time, and he felt a little strange in his heart.
Although the food she ate was fragrant, spicy and sweet, it seemed to be just the right amount, as if blended together very harmoniously, like a piece of music played by many instruments, with only one final result - it sounded good (and tasted good).
However, neither she nor the other three people clearly felt the fiery energy.
"I felt my body warm and all the pores became comfortable, as if I had just finished a sauna, but without the sticky sweat."
Listening to Xue Kai's description, Lu Ning and Chen Jia both nodded, indicating that they felt the same way.
"Hmm," Ye Mian didn't feel anything special, so he directly opened the system interface, "Then I'll hand in the task first."
Xue Kai's eyes lit up: "Hand it in quickly, there will definitely be a big reward!"
Ye Mian thought so too. After all, the ingredients for these three kinds of food were extremely difficult to gather together, and they also had special effects. It would be too outrageous if they were only given points.
