Farming? I'm making a killing with my fairytale vegetables!

198th Flower Seed

After hearing her words, the Lord of a Hundred Flowers remained silent for a moment before saying, "Alright, in that case, let Hui take you there."

She beckoned, and a beautiful fairy wearing a white dress with a jasmine flower clipped to her hair appeared on the spot.

She spun around a few times, and when she saw the Flower Master, she quickly stepped forward. "Flower Master, greetings! May I ask what brings you here?"

The flower master lovingly patted her head. "My child, take this outsider with you to collect some flower seeds."

"Oh, I see. Okay." Hui nodded and turned to Xia Shiyu.

"Hello, outsider, please follow me."

"Okay," Xia Shiyu said as she bid farewell to Baihuazhi and followed.

The two of them, one flying and the other walking, slowly moved forward.

Lu Hui asked, "What kind of flower seeds do you want?"

Xia Shiyu thought about the recent weather and said, "I want some flowers that grow in early spring."

Hui looked at her with a puzzled expression. "Our flowers here can survive at any time."

Xia Shiyu suddenly realized that with the protection of the Lord of Flowers, there was no need to worry about the weather. So she could only find some specific flowers to describe it.

"For example, flowers like forsythia, ice flower, and magnolia are relatively cold-resistant."

"Oh, you mean them? They are indeed not afraid of the cold. Then I'll take you to find them."

Hui led her to a garden; to be precise, the whole place was a garden, and beautiful flowers could be found everywhere.

However, the flowers here were exactly what Xia Shiyu had requested. She spotted the yellow forsythia, the fair and upright magnolia, and various other flowers.

When Hui arrived, he told her, "This is a field of flowers that are growing. You just need to take good care of them, and you will be able to get their seeds."

When Xia Shiyu heard this, he looked and indeed, the flowers were still just beginning to bloom and were not yet in full bloom.

"Okay, I will take good care of them."

"Okay, here are some tools. We don't usually use tools, but these are specially found for you."

Hui took out a bunch of farm tools, which were obviously prepared for her.

Xia Shiyu took the tools and thought for a moment that they were probably for taking care of the flowers.

She first picked up the watering can, checked the condition of the flowers, and then took the can to the river to fill it with water. There was a separate river here, and she filled it with water and carried it across.

Although she only wanted the seeds of the forsythia and the others, she didn't discriminate and watered them all.

After watering, the flowers visibly became more vibrant.

Xia Shiyu carefully touched the flowers, feeling the texture under her hands, and her emotions rose a little.

"You not only need spring water, but you should also need fertilizer, right?"

After Xia Shiyu finished speaking, she looked around, but then she was surprised to find that there seemed to be no fertilizer.

It seems that the land of the fairy tale world can naturally provide them with nutrients. Xia Shiyu could only carefully prune the branches of these flowers.

Since the flowers haven't fully grown yet, you only need to prune the excess branches.

There were still petals and leaves scattered on the ground. Xia Shiyu picked them up, examined them carefully, and then put some of them in a bucket. She put the rest under the soil to cover the compost.

"This way, it should be able to provide you with nourishment later on."

After Xia Shiyu finished speaking, she continued to work. The air was filled with the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers. She even saw plump bees hovering over the flowers she was watering.

"It's really amazing." Xia Shiyu looked at them curiously.

I have a strange feeling that the honey they make must taste delicious.

She swallowed hard, feeling inexplicably tempted. Later, when she took the flowers out herself, she could raise a batch of bees and eat fresh honey.

She swallowed hard, and then Hui flew over. After circling around them, she said, "You take very good care of them. You're really capable."

"Thank you so much (?? ?)"

Watching her happily flying up and down, Xia Shiyu couldn't help but ask, "Hui, is there anything else I need to do?"

Hui tilted his head and thought for a moment, "Then you should go transplant the flowers. There are so many flowers here, some of them need to be sorted."

"Okay," Xia Shiyu nodded decisively, carefully taking the shovel and flower tube to scoop up the flowers and then carefully placing them into the pot.

Then, carrying the small pots and flowers, I went to the new place and planted them one by one. After planting them, I patiently patted the soil off them to prevent damage.

Once they are all planted, a beautiful little garden will be created here.

Xia Shiyu looked at the small garden in front of her with a great sense of accomplishment. "Now it should be completely finished."

Hui spun around a few times, then nodded in satisfaction. "That's right, you did a really good job. Can you get it now? Which kind of seed do you need?"

Xia Shiyu looked around and said, "I'd like to ask for forsythia and magnolia flowers first."

"Okay, then you can take these seeds." Hui waved his hand, and the seeds were handed to Xia Shiyu.

The system popped up a message at the opportune moment: "[Congratulations, host, you have obtained special Forsythia seed No. 9, which has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, hemostatic, anti-swelling, and analgesic functions.]"

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained special magnolia flower seed No. 10. It has multiple benefits, including treating coughs, promoting blood circulation, and purifying the air.]

"Okay, thank you." Xia Shiyu happily left the fairytale world with the seeds in her hand. She felt that these two flowers looked really nice and had a variety of uses. She was determined to find a way to plant them today.

It just so happens that the planting season for these two flowers falls during this period, so Xia Shiyu went out and found two more potted plants. Just like planting scallions, she first sowed the seeds and planted the flowers.

Yu Juan came in and looked at her with some surprise. "What's going on here? Weren't all those scallions moved outside to be planted? Did you take that pile of seeds?"

Now that we have a car, we can sow the seeds of onions and garlic in the vegetable garden outside, so we don't need to carry a potted plant anymore.

Xia Shiyu said, "Mom, this time it's not scallions, ginger, or garlic, it's flower seeds."

"Flower seeds? What made you decide to grow flowers?"

Xia Shiyu said, "These flowers are quite useful too."

"It's alright. The things you planted must be extraordinary, and these flowers are beautiful. They're pleasing to the eye in the yard."

"Okay, okay, very good." Yu Juan nodded in satisfaction and then stopped worrying about it.

However, after Xia Shiyu carefully sowed the seeds, she carefully covered them with soil.

These still need to grow a bit more.

But after they came out, they saw someone else coming to buy potatoes; it was Mr. Ming, the same person who had bought potatoes before, and his friend.

French fry shops and steamed bun shops still have a huge demand for potatoes. The business in these shops is much better than before, and there's simply no way to resist the temptation.

After Xia Shiyu signed the order, she saw some villagers also come to buy potatoes.

"These potatoes are really good! Let's buy some, Xiaoyu."

"Yes, with these potatoes, my grandson eats several more bowls of rice."

"These potatoes are wonderful, I never expected them to be this good."

A group of people were chatting enthusiastically. Since there weren't many of them, and they were from the village, Xia Shiyu let them buy the potatoes, thinking that if they weren't enough later, she could secretly release some more from the fairy tale space.

Xia Shiyu made her decision, and a group of people surrounded her, praising her endlessly, "That's great, Xiaoyu is really capable."

While Xiajia Village was happy, other places were not.

First of all, the vegetable-selling groups were filled with complaints.

[Boss Xia, have you forgotten about us? Why can't we buy potatoes? The shop doesn't have enough either.]

[Yes, you can't forget about us all for the sake of those big bosses! Our combined purchasing power could make you a small business owner!]

[Waaaaah, I've never wanted potatoes this much before! I was so tired of eating them at school.]

[Boss Xia, please give us some potatoes quickly, Boss Xia.]

[Please, please!]

[Please add]

[This is terrible! I never imagined something like this could happen.]

Looking at the complaints in the group chat, Xia Shiyu realized that he hadn't been selling potatoes for a while, but now he thought it wasn't good for his customers near his hometown.

She decided to sell some to everyone anyway.

She clicked to add text and sent it.

[Dear customers, potatoes will be available soon, and scallions, garlic, and cilantro will also be in season soon. We welcome your continued support.]

The scallions, ginger, and garlic we transplanted to the vegetable garden are almost ready. Since they grow quickly, they'll be a long-term supply, just like the chives.

The news that was released this time did reassure everyone in the group.

[Great! Thank you, boss! Finally, we have new dishes to eat!]

[Yes, yes, we can have new dishes! This is wonderful!]

[The scallions and garlic are great, I want some too.]

[That's really good, the scallion pancakes are so fragrant!]

[It smells amazing!]

[Boss, boss, hurry up and sell this! I can't even imagine how delicious it would be to add a little scallion and garlic to the noodles.]

[Me too, me too, my family still needs to make scallion oil.]

[Hurry, hurry, let's go out and sell them the next day!]

Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, Xia Shiyu immediately decided to plant another batch of potatoes in the fairy tale world so that everyone could have more. However, they couldn't plant too many, otherwise the numbers wouldn't match up.

After making the decision, Xia Shiyu started having people prepare for winter, so that they could go to the vegetable market again to sell vegetables the next day.

Yu Juan said, "Do you want me to go with you tomorrow?"

Xia Shiyu shook her head, "That won't be necessary, I can go by myself."

"That's fine. Is there anything else we need to prepare?"

"No need, we'll just focus on selling potatoes tomorrow, and we'll get another batch of scallions and garlic from home."

"Okay, okay, I'll go check it out now, and I can harvest an extra batch for you later."

The group started harvesting vegetables while they were talking.

We harvested a lot of vegetables, and then we tidied up the soil and put the vegetables in.

Xia Shiyu put everything away after it was all packed up, planning to sell these things first thing tomorrow morning.

The next morning, Xia Shiyu went to the city's vegetable market full of hope.

When she arrived at the designated spot in the market, she was surprised to find that there were so many people waiting there, even more enthusiastic than when she had rushed to buy oranges before.

"Boss Xia is here! Boss Xia is here! Come in quickly!"

"I want to buy potatoes, I want to buy potatoes."

"I want it too! I want it too! Waaah!"

"Make way, everyone! I'm definitely buying ten pounds of these potatoes today."

The person who said this was glared at angrily by the other elderly men and women.

"Young man, you're being too greedy."

"How awful!"

"Yeah, there's not enough food for everyone to begin with, how can you be so domineering as to ask for so much?"

"Hmph, let's see who has the best skills, folks."

"There's no doubt about that. We'll definitely show you our strength when the time comes."

The elderly people no longer acted like they needed to be offered a seat on the bus.

They all turned into fighting cocks, with raging flames behind them.

That was the radiance of fighting spirit!

A group of people were eager to try, but Xia Shiyu could only start organizing the team again with a headache.

"Everyone, please don't rush or push. Be careful, otherwise you might get injured or strained."

"Sigh, Mr. Xia, we know all this, so don't worry."

It was Mr. Hou, the owner of the braised food shop, who saw what was happening and came over to help, which eased the situation.

"There were just too many people. Thank you so much, Boss Hou."

"It's nothing, it's just that Boss Xia could reserve a batch of potatoes for me later."

Mr. Hou was a little embarrassed.

He had wanted to buy vegetables from Xia Shiyu's family before, but he was a little reluctant to spend the money. He thought it would be difficult to prepare them for his own consumption, and the cost of selling them would be too high. Moreover, many vegetables were not suitable for making braised dishes.

But potatoes are different; almost every braised food shop has potato slices.

He could easily buy a batch of potatoes, and the price of potatoes wouldn't be high.

So that's why he came to check today, and when he saw that someone needed help, he offered to help.

Xia Shiyu nodded, "Oh, you mean this? No problem, Boss Hou, I'll reserve a batch for you."

"Haha, thank you so much, Boss Xia!" Boss Hou immediately beamed with joy.

The two were tidying up and talking with their backs to the customers. There was a lot of background noise, so no one could hear them talking yet.

The two of them happily decided on a business deal.

Because the potatoes were quite heavy, Xia Shiyu had another group of stronger customers help her carry them down.

We'll talk about it after we've arranged everything.

After everything was set up, she picked up a megaphone and started speaking loudly.

"Customers, please line up. I won't say anything else today. Just do what you always do, but there's a limit. Each person can only have a maximum of 5 jin of potatoes, which is 12 yuan per jin. Please don't rush or push."

Boss Hou also chimed in, "Don't rush, everyone! I can help you choose."
