Chapter 6: Seeds
Hearing his friend’s words, Shi Anlei immediately cursed, “Get lost, my younger sister is alive and well! Don’t let me hear such words again, and tell them that my younger sister is called Shi An’an, and in the future, when they see my younger sister, they should all behave themselves. Whoever bullies her won’t live!”
“No way, really?” Feimengde was still shocked. “What exactly happened? How did you find her?”
At this point, Shi Anlei said proudly, “My younger sister also got into Capital Star University. As soon as her information was admitted, we knew. You don’t know, An’an looks just like my dad, we can recognize her without any identification!”
Hearing this, Feimengde was also happy for his friend. “Since your younger sister has been found, you must treat her well from now on. By the way, what about Anxin? Will she have any resentment in her heart?”
Shi Anlei scratched his head. “Probably not? That girl trains all day, her eyes only have become stronger, entering the Federation Ninth Legion. Except for this, nothing can affect her… right?”
Feimengde thought of that girl Shi Anxin and also felt a headache. “Probably. By the way, her training is about to end soon, right? I don’t know how damaged her mecha will be this time.”
Thinking of how Shi Anxin would throw her damaged mecha to him for repair every time, without giving a single coin, and even demanding the most advanced and best materials, he felt heartbroken.
“I say, can you persuade her to just get a new mecha? Every time the technical department people see her mecha, they come to complain to me. Good technical personnel have all turned into mecha repair workers. If it’s slightly damaged, it’s okay, but the key is that girl’s mecha is almost scrapped every time it’s sent over…”
“…I’ll try, but that mecha of hers was the first birthday gift my dad gave her, she can’t bear to replace it with a new one…” Shi Anlei thought of this younger sister’s stubbornness, and he also felt a headache.
“Sigh.” Feimengde could only pray now that Shi Anxin’s mecha wouldn’t be scrapped this time.
Shi Family
Because of work reasons, Shi Anlei also left home, leaving only Shi Xiaoxiao and Shi An’an at home.
Shi An’an curiously strolled around inside and outside the house, and finally, standing in front of the house door, looking at the large bare yard, she felt it was somewhat glaring.
Not only the yard was glaring, from arriving at Capital Star, along the way she felt something was missing.
Skyscrapers were spectacular and exquisite, people were also very energetic, but she felt that this planet lacked some vitality.
Yes, vitality, the vitality from plants.
In Shi An’an’s cognition, plants are the source vitality of a planet. If a planet has no plants, then this planet must be fragile, and with a slight blow, it would be damaged.
And in the original host’s memories, as well as the information queried on Star Net, Shi An’an also learned about the preciousness of plants in this era.
Cultivating plants is very difficult because during the growth process, there are many uncontrollable factors. Often, with a slight negligence, they wither and die, or turn into toxic plants.
But although planting is so difficult, Interstellar people have extremely high admiration for plants. Who wouldn’t love green and cute plants when they see them!
Therefore, once precious plants are successfully cultivated, they are scrambled for by all parties.
Shi An’an looked at the plants sold on Star Net, and even a malnourished foxtail grass could sell for 100,000 Star Coins, and it was still snatched up!
“So profitable…” Shi An’an looked at the bare yard, her eyes gradually lighting up.
Then, thinking of her own spiritual power, her eyes dimmed a bit.
She was a planting expert in her previous life, but now her spiritual power is so little. The spiritual energy she absorbed on the starship last time only amounted to that tiny bit in her Dantian, too poor!!!
“Miss An’an, do you need anything?”
Suddenly, Shi Xiaoxiao’s voice came from beside her ear. Shi An’an looked at the elegant Shi Xiaoxiao beside her and couldn’t help asking, “Xiao Xiao, can I plant some plants in the yard?”
Shi Xiaoxiao nodded. “Of course, Miss An’an. According to Federation residents’ residential areas, this yard belongs to the Shi Family and can be freely renovated and modified…”
Hearing this, Shi An’an immediately placed an order for seeds on Star Net. “Let me see what seeds there are…”
Shi An’an happily browsed Star Net and found that the seeds were quite complete. Although the prices were high, not many people bought them, and they were all sold by the Federation Botanical Research Institute. Moreover, next to each seed, it said, “Plants can be bought back at high prices,” meaning that if someone buys seeds and successfully cultivates them, they can resell them back, and the price is considerable.
However, due to people’s admiration for natural plants, often as soon as someone cultivates one, it can be acquired at a high price in no time. Of course, very few people can successfully cultivate them, so the plants in the entire Federation are basically monopolized by the research institute.
Of course, the Federation also strongly encourages people to cultivate plants themselves, but due to too many uncontrollable factors, plants are too hard to raise, and people are unwilling to cultivate them.
Moreover, cultivating plants not only requires investing a lot of time and energy, but also buying various nutrient solutions, insect repellents…, and in the end, it may not even succeed.
Shi An’an selected Rosemary, Mint, and Sunflower seeds. Rosemary and Mint help calm the mind, refresh the brain, and can effectively provide relief for headaches and improve sleep. Once the seeds mature, she plans to send them to Father Shi to see if they can provide relief for Father Shi’s mental power.
There is also Sunflower, Shi An’an purely took a fancy to its cheapness. One Sunflower seed is only 100 Star Coins, the cheapest among all seeds.
Shi An’an bought five seeds each, and also placed an order for tools for turning soil and planting, as well as some nutrient solutions and such, totaling 80,000 Star Coins spent.
Watching the money being deducted, Shi An’an felt a pang of heartache, but thinking that a mature Sunflower can sell for 100,000 Star Coins, she felt okay again!
After having some spiritual power before, Shi An’an discovered that this body’s spiritual root was much better than her previous life, it was three spiritual roots, precisely the wood, water, and earth spiritual roots that harmoniously coexist.
After discovering this situation, Shi An’an was extremely happy. Finally, during cultivation, she wouldn’t have to endure the mutual repulsion of spiritual roots.
Soon, the express delivery arrived. Shi An’an opened the seed package. “No wonder it’s so expensive, this box alone must cost 10,000 Star Coins!”
Shi An’an looked at the box containing the seeds, very exquisite, and the sealing effect was extremely good.
“This is to prevent the seeds from colliding or getting damaged during transport. It’s a box specially developed by the research institute, and it also contains nutrient solution inside to ensure the activity of each seed. This is also how the Botanical Research Institute guarantees an 80% survival rate for each seed.” Shi Xiaoxiao explained from the side.
“So that’s how it is, the Botanical Research Institute is quite attentive.” Shi An’an nodded, then carefully opened the box according to the instructions beside it.
In the instant it was opened, Shi An’an precisely captured a faint trace of spiritual energy.
