168 Experiment (1)
At night, after a group of women returned from Market Day, they were a little curious when they heard that the pumpkin leaves Gu Qingming bought were extremely delicious.
“Mingming, where did you buy the pumpkin leaves?”
Gu Qingming said the words she had thought of, “I went to the road on the back of the stone and saw an old lady carrying two big baskets. They looked tender and green, so I asked her if she was selling them. She said that she wasn’t selling them and was keeping them for herself. I coaxed her and asked her to sell a basket to me. I gave her a hundred dollars.”
“Ah, those who pass by that road should be from Shanzhu Village, Tuzhu Village, or Huoshu Village.”
“Which village has such delicious pumpkin leaves? Let’s buy them next time.”
Gu Qingming was speechless. Something that tasted like this was only available in her space.
“Mingming doesn’t know that old woman who sold the pumpkin leaves. We can’t buy it even if we want to.”
When they were cooking at night, they prepared the remaining pumpkin leaves together.
Grandmother adhered to the principle of not wasting anything and used up all the leaves in her preparation.
“Eh, this leaf is as delicious as the petoile. Moreover, the fine hair doesn’t pierce my throat at all.”
Grandma also tasted the pumpkin leaves and said, “If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have fed the leaves in the morning to the pigs. I would have used them to stir-fry.”
“I feel very comfortable after eating the pumpkin leaves!”
“I have the same feeling. I thought it was an illusion.”
Gu Qingming was speechless.
This was a pure spatial dish that was watered with spiritual spring water.
After eating it, there would definitely be some effect.
After tomorrow, the family would more or less experience some change.
Which was just as well.
The change was slow, and it would not appear abrupt or abnormal.
In the dead of night, Gu Qingming locked the door and entered the space again.
This time, when she entered the space, she actually saw a green pumpkin with flower buds.
“Eh, so fast? It bloomed already?” Gu Qingming was surprised.
Growing vegetables in this space was a different experience every day.
Little Kong said, “The pumpkin has been planted for five days. It’s time for it to bloom!”
Gu Qingming said, “It takes more than a hundred days to grow vegetables outside, but it only takes more than ten days here. Little Kong, with this cheat, I can make a fortune even if I grow vegetables.”
Little Kong Kong flapped its little wings and said excitedly, “Master, we’re definitely going to make a fortune. Let’s hurry up and take action!”
Gu Qingming immediately looked at the little fairy suspiciously and said, “Little Kong, why do I feel that you’re always encouraging me to farm outside?”
Kong Xingfan immediately shook its head and said, “No, no, I didn’t!”
It would never admit to this.
Although that was indeed the case.
It wasn’t clear if Gu Qingming believed it or not, but she nodded and said, “I’ll believe you for now! However, I’ve thought about it for a few days. It’s indeed as you said. I can farm outside. Perhaps it’s also a channel for me to start a business. I’ll go back and inherit the family business in twenty years!”
The little fairy nodded and said, “Yes, we’ve discussed this before. Just let your biological father tire himself out for another twenty years.”
Gu Qingming defended herself. “I already said that my father is in his prime. When he still needs to prove his manly charm with his career, he definitely has to continue his career, right?”
“So, you want your father to prove his masculinity and seduce other women?” The little fairy was a little speechless as it complained, “Is there anyone like you as a daughter? If your mother finds out, she’ll break your legs.”
It had seen with its own eyes how valiant its master’s mother was.
Gu Qingming sneered and said, “Hehe, Little Kong, I realize that you seem to like to see me in trouble.”
“No, no, absolutely not!” Kong Xing Fan quickly shook its head and said, “Master, you must have misunderstood!”
“You even came out. Isn’t it because you’re guilty?” Gu Qingming snorted coldly. “Hmph, Kong Xingfan, my thoughts are connected to yours now. I can sense many of your thoughts.”
“Hehe, Master!” Kong Xing Fan immediately said ingratiatingly, “You have to believe me. I really don’t have such thoughts.”
“Hmph, it’s best if you don’t have such thoughts.” Gu Qingming nodded.
Gu Qingming thought of the purpose of entering the space.
She said, “Little Kong, I plan to test it with this spiritual spring water and see the effect!”
Kong Xingfan immediately said seriously, “That’s very good! Let me tell you, in the vegetable field outside, if you water it with spiritual spring water, although the taste won’t be comparable to those that are planted in the space, it’s definitely unique. Unique things are at unique prices. With your connections and channels, the things you grow will definitely sell for the highest price!”
Good things would eventually be discovered.
It was just a problem of being an early or late adopter.
However, for low-level farmers who did not have resources or connections, no matter how good the things were, they could not be sold for a high price.
Only middlemen could earn money.
However, it had to be discovered by the middleman.
Some might not have any channels, but good things might rot in the ground.
It was not that the world lacked good horses, but that it lacked the talent to discover good horses!
With Gu Qingming’s family background and connections, as long as the produce was really good, she did not have to worry about selling the goods.
“Right now, how can I pour this spiritual spring water into the vegetables?” Gu Qingming asked in confusion. “Do you want me to bring in bottles for the water, and pour it into fields bottle by bottle? This might be too troublesome, right?”
The little fairy was speechless. Forget it. In any case, it knew that its master was an agricultural idiot. She also knew nothing about common sense.
The little fairy said, “Master, if you water them one by one like this, won’t you be exhausted? Besides, you’re someone who hasn’t done farm work before. How can you water the vegetables?”
Gu Qingming asked in confusion, “So, what should I do?”
The little fairy thought for a moment and suggested, “Why don’t you follow behind when your grandmother or someone else is watering the vegetables? Then, when they’re not paying attention, just add the spiritual spring water into the water bucket!”
At this point, the little fairy emphasized, “You can’t put too much each time. If you’re in the experimental stage, I suggest you do it in batches.”
Gu Qingming frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
The little fairy said, “The degree of the spiritual spring water is different, so the vegetables that are watered will definitely be different. However, I’m not sure how much they will grow when you water them with the spiritual spring water. Master, you have to experiment a few more times to obtain some data.”
“Yes, I understand!” Gu Qingming nodded and said, “It’s just that this spiritual spring water is controlled with my mind, but how can I operate it?”
The little fairy said, “Control it with your mind. The spiritual spring water can flow out from your fingertips.”
After Gu Qingming left the space, she drank the cup and pointed her fingertips in a direction. As expected, water flowed out of her fingertips.
Then, she realized she could control the strength of the flow.
That made things easier.
