138 Pumpkin Seed

After eating the snacks by the roadside, Grandma Gu was very satisfied.

Although they were not as delicious as the food made by the chef at home, they had their unique taste. Perhaps she would miss them in the future.

After the group of people ate, they strolled around the snack street.

Suddenly, Gu Qingming realized that there was something that looked like seeds beside a stall selling beef miscellaneous goods.

“What… what seed is this?” Gu Qingming asked.

“These are pumpkin seeds,” Grandma said. “Are they seeds, or are they stir-fried?”

The person selling pumpkin seeds was an old man in his sixties. She said, “These are seeds!”

Sister-in-law was surprised.

She smiled and asked, “Old man, the stalls in this street peddle food. Only yours sells seeds. How did you think of selling seeds here?”

The old man said, “I just feel that there are so many people here, so I came to join in the fun. I don’t necessarily have to sell them!”

Oh, so he had nothing better to do and came here to sell seeds.

The old man continued, “My pumpkin seeds are seeds left behind by my own pumpkins. My pumpkins are sweet and soft. Whether they’re steamed, stir-fried, or made into pumpkin porridge, they’re especially sweet.”

At this moment, the spatial fairy said excitedly in the space, “Master, Master, buy this pumpkin seed and plant it in the space.”

Gu Qingming did not ask the fairy why it wanted to buy these seeds for the time being.

She looked at the old man and asked, “Old man, how much are your seeds? I’ll buy them all!”

Grandma Gu asked in confusion, “Mingming, you want to buy these seeds?”

“Yes!” Gu Qingming nodded and said, “I see that these pumpkin seeds are even and full. I want to buy them and try growing them.”

Zhou Xiaoyu said, “But you don’t need so much to plant, right?”

Gu Qingming smiled and said, “It’s fine. If I can’t plant it, I can keep them!”

“Alright, then we’ll buy it!” Grandma Shi smiled and said, “There aren’t many of these seeds either. If the variety is good and the pumpkins planted are really sweet, we can keep them and continue planting. Sister, how much are these seeds for? We’ll buy them all!”

The old lady opposite her looked a little older than her grandmother.

The old man asked suspiciously, “If you really want to buy them all, my pumpkin seeds are at least a catty or two. You shouldn’t need so much.”

Most people would buy one or two seedlings to plant in the corner.

Of course, he couldn’t rule out the possibility that there were buyers who raised seedlings to sell.

The old man said, “Ten dollars for a tael. Here’s a total of 18 catties. A total of 180 dollars. Buy them all and I’ll give you a discount. Just give me 160 dollars.”

“Ten dollars?” Gu Qingming was a little surprised.

Was it that cheap?

The old man thought that it was because it was too expensive.

The old lady frowned and said, “This is already the cheapest. If you buy it in a seed shop, they’ll sell it by grain. One dollar per grain.”

Grandma understood the market and said, “Sister, we’re not saying that you’re selling it at a high price, but it’s too cheap. We don’t dare to believe it.”

The old man said, “These are pumpkins that my family planted. Seeds from one pumpkin can raise more than ten pumpkins, so I kept all the pumpkin seeds. I gave them to some relatives and friends and sold the rest.”

Grandma Shi smiled and said, “Alright, we’ll buy them all. We’ll take advantage of you!”

After buying the pumpkin seeds, the group strolled around for a while. When they felt that there was nothing to shop for, they went home.

As soon as Gu Qingming and the others returned home, they heard that their grandfather had been bitten by a leech.

After that, no one mentioned that they had eaten at a roadside stall.

After returning home, Gu Qingming secretly dripped the spiritual spring water into the well water. This way, the effect of the well water diluting the spirit spring water would make it less obvious. Everyone could drink it together.

After returning to her room, Gu Qingming entered the space. She opened her palm which held a few pumpkin seeds.

“Is there anything special about these pumpkin seeds?” Gu Qingming asked curiously.

The little fairy flew in the air and said, “This pumpkin seed is very clean as if it has been washed with clear water. Therefore, it’s very suitable to plant it in the space!”

“What does this mean?” Gu Qingming did not quite understand.

The spatial fairy said, “In your current era and society, everything is based on scientific progress. Even crops are planted with fertilizer to make the plants grow strong. To keep plant disease and insects at bay, pesticides are used. Even the seeds cultivated by technology are more or less contaminated with this aura.

“However, these pumpkin seeds are different. They came from pumpkins planted in a very pure area and have never been contaminated. Therefore, the seeds they bear are also very clean. If I’m not wrong, they should have been planted in the mountains.”

Gu Qingming frowned and said in confusion, “So, that non-harmful organic green food isn’t clean either?”

The spatial fairy shook its head and said, “I haven’t really come into contact with that organic green food yet. I can’t evaluate it.”

At this point, the little fairy paused and suddenly became excited. “That’s right, Master. You can plant organic green vegetables outside and use the spiritual spring water in the space.”

Gu Qingming said speechlessly, “I have to plant it outside and in the space. Aren’t you afraid of exhausting your master?”

“How can this be tiring?” The spatial fairy said excitedly, “If you plant it outside, you can use machinery and hire people to do it. If you plant it in the space, you only need to think about it. It won’t be too tiring.”

Gu Qingming gritted her teeth and said, “Then thank you for thinking so meticulously on my behalf!”

The spatial fairy did not hear the sarcasm. It continued, “If you plant it outside, the new seeds cultivated can be transplanted into the space. Then, the new seeds cultivated in the space can be planted outside. The quality of vegetables and so on will undergo a leap.”

“Yes, so?” Gu Qingming raised her eyebrows and deliberately asked, “Are you asking me to sell seeds?”

The spatial fairy said, “If you don’t sell seeds, you can sell vegetables!”

“So, you want me, a rich young lady with billions of assets, to go to the countryside to farm and sell vegetables?” Gu Qingming said sharply.

The space fairy was speechless. It could not win against its master.

In that case, it should hide from its master. It quietly flew away and stopped by the spiritual pond. It silently fell into deep thought.

It had forgotten that the master it chose was a rich person.

For someone who did not lack money, asking her to farm was simply ridiculous.

With money, who would do that tiring farm work?

Gu Qingming looked at it and chuckled.

She walked over and patted its little head, then caressed its white wings. She said, “Little Kong, although I’m now the heir to billions of assets and don’t lack money to spend, that wealth was built by my Gu family’s ancestors. So, I wonder if I can build my own empire?”

Little Kong’s eyes widened, but soon, confusion and confusion appeared in his eyes. He asked, “Then don’t you want your family’s empire?”

Gu Qingming covered her mouth and smiled. “Yes, why not! It’s just that I’m only in my early twenties now. My father is in his prime. He can totally manage this empire now. I don’t need to worry about my family for the time being. Perhaps in another twenty years, I can consider it.”

“Ah?!” The spatial fairy said cutely, “So, Master, Daddy will have to continue working for another 20 years!”

Gu Qingming smiled and said, “How can this be tiring? He’s in a period of vigor and needs to perform in his career.”

She looked at the pumpkin seeds in her hand and said, “Can we plant these seeds now?”

The spatial fairy said, “You can plant it now!”

After saying that, it looked around and pointed to a slightly high slope. “Plant them there. When they grow up a little, they can climb along the high slope. A plant that grows more than ten pumpkins can grow hundreds of pumpkins at once. Haha, it won’t be long before they fill this place.”

It pointed at a spot.

Gu Qingming asked in confusion, “But how long will this take? Also, will it keep growing?”

If it continued to grow, she wouldn’t have to spend any effort at all.

“What should I do about the fruit in the future?”‘

“These are all questions to consider!”
