“I bought some last time too, and nothing grew. You’re a liar. Give me my money back, or come with me to see the authorities.”
Two young men were pulling at a burly man wearing a fur cloak, talking incessantly.
The burly man didn't frown. He hugged his basket, slightly dissatisfied. "I'm not lying to you. These are seeds I brought back from my travels in other countries. They've grown many things that we don't have here. As long as we can grow them, we won't have to worry about famine in the future!"
"You're just bragging! None of us who bought your seeds have grown anything! You're a fraud, come with me to the authorities!"

Seeing that no one was speaking, the burly man rummaged through the basket and handed it to Wan Qiqi, saying, "Be careful, don't drop it!"
Wan Qiqi ignored him and quickly opened the paper wrapping the seeds.

Watermelon, pumpkin, corn, peanuts... and chili seeds!
