"Don’t worry, the seeds are tiny. This hole is plenty big. Aunt Wang, could you grab a watering can for me?"
Hearing Wang Minli mention a watering can, Yun Zijin realized she had only remembered to grab the shovel and had forgotten the can.
As a rule, newly planted seeds needed to be watered.
Wang Minli glanced at Yun Zijin, and after confirming she was okay, she turned and went back to get the watering can.
Yun Zijin planted the Fire Tree seeds first.
’The names ’Fire Tree’ and ’Ice Tree’ already suggest they’re polar opposites,’ Yun Zijin thought. So, she put about ten meters between them before digging another hole and planting the Ice Tree seeds.
Just then, Wang Minli returned with the watering can.
Yun Zijin took the watering can from her and, going by feel, watered each of the two spots.
When Yun Zijin finished watering, Wang Minli smoothly took the can back.
Yun Zijin, for her part, dusted off her hands, which had gotten a little dirty from digging. "Mission accomplished!"
Then, she took out her phone, snapped a picture of each spot, and headed back to the main villa building to wash her hands.
As for the two opened packets of Fire Tree and Ice Tree seeds, Yun Zijin took them back to her room and stored them directly in her system backpack.
She then took 50 packs of Moonlight Grass Seeds out of her system backpack and sent a photo to Lin Yan:
—Qingqing Zijing: [Image.jpg] 50 packs in total. Each pack contains 2,000 seeds, at 50 yuan per seed. That’s five million total. Do you want them all, or just a portion?
Lin Yan must have been waiting for her message, because he replied the second she sent it.
—Haiyan Heqing: Let me talk to the people from the Agricultural Research Institute and Dijing Mansion. I can only tell you how many we need after I hear back from them.
—Qingqing Zijing: Okay, just message me when you find out.
’Five million yuan was nothing to the person she was now.’
After replying to Lin Yan, Yun Zijin turned off her phone. She then took the 50 packs of Moonlight Grass Seeds out and asked Wang Minli to store them properly.
She also explained that these were the Moonlight Grass Seeds to be sold to Lin Yan, and told her to store them carefully.
"Yes, Miss. You can count on me!"
Although she didn’t know where Yun Zijin had gotten the Moonlight Grass Seeds, Wang Minli was used to working in wealthy households. She knew that as a servant, she had to know which questions she could ask and which she couldn’t.
If Yun Zijin didn’t say, Wang Minli wouldn’t pry. She just focused on doing what Yun Zijin instructed her to do.
It wasn’t long before there was news from Lin Yan. Representatives from the Agricultural Research Institute and the City Government wanted to come to Yun Zijin’s home to purchase the Moonlight Grass Seeds from her in person.
Yun Zijin raised an eyebrow slightly at the message, but the fact that she lived in Villa No. 1 of Xingyu Mansion was no secret.
Yun Zijin guessed that since both parties wanted to come buy the seeds in person, they must have both wanted a larger share but failed to reach an agreement. Now, they were coming to try and get what they wanted based on their own merits.
Yun Zijin agreed to let Lin Yan bring them over, but stipulated that he couldn’t bring too many people.
Lin Yan immediately sent a message back, assuring Yun Zijin that including himself, there would only be three people.
As for who the Agricultural Research Institute and the City Government were sending, she had no idea.
After settling on the number of people, Yun Zijin told Wang Minli that they would be having guests soon and asked her to prepare some refreshments.
Wang Minli immediately agreed and went to get things ready.
Meanwhile, Yun Zijin called the gatehouse to inform them that Lin Yan would be bringing guests over today.
Lin Yan had visited Yun Zijin at Xingyu Mansion before, so there was a record with the gate guards. Yun Zijin didn’t need to say much; they knew what to do.
