"Alright, old classmate, I'll just plant fruits and vegetables in the yard. What kind of seeds do you have at your store?" Yang Fan, having made up his mind, turned to ask Su Xiaoxiao.
"Cherry tomatoes, chili peppers, green peppers, carrots, white radishes, strawberries, vegetables... basically the usual household garden seeds. We have them all at the shop," Su Xiaoxiao replied with a smile.
"Great, then just give me one packet of each!" Yang Fan said, not bothering to choose, he decided to buy them all.
"All of them? Old classmate, are you planning to become a farmer?" Su Xiaoxiao giggled.
"Haha, being a farmer isn't so bad. Just watering, weeding, and enjoying a leisurely life while being self-sufficient sounds pretty good to me," Yang Fan chuckled.
"Alright, alright, I'll pack up one of each for you then."
With that, Su Xiaoxiao quickly packed up a small packet of every fruit and vegetable seed in her shop.
Afterward, she handed the seeds to Yang Fan, while also giving him a few tips on how to nurture them.
"Old classmate, how much do I owe you for all these?" Yang Fan asked as he took the seeds.
"Don't be silly, old classmate. These are just some seeds. I'm giving them to you as a gift!" Su Xiaoxiao shook her head with a smile.
"That's really not necessary..."
Yang Fan started to protest, but Su Xiaoxiao pretended to get upset and interrupted him:
"Yang Fan, if you're going to pay, then I'm not selling them to you!"
"Uh, okay, okay. Thanks a lot, old classmate," Yang Fan replied, feeling a bit embarrassed but also grateful.
The seeds were probably not worth much, and there was no need to keep arguing about it. He'd just remember the kindness between old classmates.
After chatting for a bit longer and reminiscing about old times, Yang Fan said his goodbyes and rode his motorcycle back to the village.
He returned home, carrying a large bag of seeds.
Looking at his expansive yard, Yang Fan couldn't help but smile.
He could already picture the scene in his mind—a yard full of grapevines, strawberry patches, and various fruits and vegetables. It was a beautiful image.
A three-story seaside villa, with a spacious yard, grapevines climbing up trellises, and a chair to relax under the shade of the vines. Whenever he felt thirsty, he could simply reach up and pluck a bunch of grapes to snack on...
"Haha, I'm already salivating just thinking about it. Enough dreaming, time to get to work!"
With a smile, Yang Fan shook off his daydreams and went to the storage room to grab a hoe and shovel.
Without wasting any time, he began working hard. He swung the hoe and shovel, clearing the neglected corner of the yard.
Although he had no experience with farming and his methods were clumsy, his body had been enhanced by the golden drop. His strength and endurance were far beyond the average person.
With his quick and powerful movements, the large patch of untended land was soon ready for planting.
Once the land was prepared, Yang Fan took out the small packet of cherry tomato seeds Su Xiaoxiao had given him.
Cherry tomatoes, or "Saint's Fruit," were sweet and juicy, packed with vitamin C. Most importantly, they were easy to eat—just wash and pop them into your mouth without having to spit out the seeds or skin.
Yang Fan was quite fond of them, so he decided to plant them first.
He then proceeded to sow the seeds.
Planting was clearly a more delicate task than tilling, so Yang Fan bent over, carefully scattering the seeds one by one, ensuring they were evenly spaced.
By the time he finished sowing the entire patch of land with the tomato seeds, the sun was setting, and it was already evening.
"Wow, planting seeds is way more tiring than tilling!"
Finally standing up and stretching, Yang Fan felt a slight ache in his back.
But despite the fatigue, he couldn't help but feel a sense of accomplishment.
Looking at the land he had personally tilled and planted, he felt the truth of an old saying: "Labor is honorable; self-sufficiency is rewarding!"
After a brief rest, Yang Fan went to the kitchen, filled a small bucket with water, and brought it outside.
The next step was crucial.
Yang Fan couldn't wait to see whether the golden drop, which he had learned from the Dragon Pearl, would have any effect on the plants.
He focused on his Dantian and soon summoned the Dragon Pearl to refine a few drops of golden drop. They slowly seeped out from his right index finger and into the water.
The golden drop immediately dissolved into the water.
Yang Fan then carefully poured the water with the diluted golden drop onto the newly prepared garden.
"All done! Now, let's see if the golden drop really works its magic!"
After completing the task, Yang Fan stretched again, feeling a little tired but satisfied.
Looking at the small vegetable garden he had created with his own hands, Yang Fan felt a deep sense of fulfillment and anticipation.
Would these tiny cherry tomato seeds sprout and grow successfully?
Would the diluted golden drop have any miraculous effects on them?
Only time would tell.
