Before going to bed at night, Qiao Zhixia counted out a thousand yuan in front of her father and gave it to her mother.

The couple was stunned when they saw so much money, and it took them a while to react.

"Zhizhi, where did you get so much money?" Li Aizhen felt that the money in her hand was extremely hot.

Qiao Zhixia looked at the nervous couple and smiled helplessly, "Dad, Mom, don't worry! This money is the cooperation fund for my business cooperation with others."

"What? What business do you do?"

Qiao Zhixia had already thought of an excuse. Although she couldn't expose the spiritual spring and the system, she had to explain the source of the money clearly.

Besides, her energy for farming secretly is limited after all. When will she be able to accumulate enough points to upgrade?

So she decided to ask her parents to help her.

"Dad, Mom, you must never tell anyone what I tell you, otherwise I will have to pay you compensation." Qiao Zhixia said to the couple in a cautious manner.

The honest couple suddenly became so nervous that they started drooling.

"What's the matter?"

"I met a friend who does research outside. He developed a special fertilizer that can promote food growth and increase nutrients. He gave me the fertilizer formula and asked me to cooperate with him, and I agreed..."

Qiao Xinguo and his wife didn't even dare to blink when they heard this. "You mean we should use the fertilizer he gave us to grow vegetables, and give him a share of the profits?"

"Yes, I will start sowing seeds in our fields tomorrow. Just leave the farm matters to me."

The four acres of land they were allocated had just been used to harvest corn and had not yet been plowed. Li Aizhen planned to take a few days off before turning the land over and planting soybeans.

But Qiao Zhixia asked her to rest and just take good care of her father at home. She would arrange what to plant in the fields in the future.

That night, she climbed out of the window, found a secluded piece of wasteland, scattered a handful of tomato seeds, watered them with the spiritual spring water, and waited to see the results.

This time was similar to the previous white radish. The tomatoes quickly took root, sprouted, grew leaves and bloomed. It only took thirty minutes from sprouting to fruiting and ripening.

But because she didn't use a trellis, the entire tomato plant was weighed down by the fruits.

She quickly put the ripe tomatoes into the space, and right after picking them, she was surprised to find that a new batch was ripening quickly.

She picked the tomato plants five times before they withered.

Only after she had harvested all the tomatoes did she pick up a tomato and examine it carefully with a flashlight.

She found that the tomatoes were large, round and plump, with a crystal-clear light pink color all over. Each one weighed about two kilograms, and like the white radishes, the sizes of the tomatoes were not much different.

She brought it to her nose and sniffed it. The unique tomato aroma was very strong.

After taking a bite, the skin is so thin that it can be ignored. The mellow and rich fruit aroma accompanied by the clear and sweet tomato juice instantly fills the mouth. The flesh is soft and refreshing, making people unable to stop eating and making people feel refreshed.

She ate two before she stopped because she was too full.

While it was still early, she used the moonlight to sow two more handfuls of tomato seeds and lettuce seeds.

Lettuce takes even less time to mature and can be harvested in just about ten minutes.

Moreover, each head of lettuce weighed more than one kilogram, and was green, tender and juicy. She tried a bite and it was crispy with a hint of sweetness. It would be great if it were eaten cold.

She is confident that these dishes will have a market due to their unique and wonderful taste.

In the next few hours, she stayed up all night to grow 3,000 kilograms of tomatoes, 1,000 kilograms of lettuce and 3,000 kilograms of white radishes.

She wants to use these vegetables to test the waters in the city.

At the same time, if she wanted to expand her business, she couldn't just keep doing it in secret.

Since you have decided to farm honestly, you can't let the crops grow too fast, otherwise it will definitely attract attention.

She needed to find a way to slow down the growth rate of vegetables while ensuring the taste of the crops.

After much thought, diluting the spiritual spring water is the most feasible option.

She decided to take the time to control the ripening time of various vegetables by using different dilution ratios.

Of course, the maturity time needs to be appropriately extended, but it cannot be as long as that of ordinary crops, otherwise the yield will be too low.

It is appropriate to harvest all vegetables within about fifteen days.

The next day, she found Secretary Chen and offered him 15 yuan a day to help find five people to turn over her several acres of land.

Secretary Chen knew her family's situation. Both adults were in poor health, and it was really hard for her, a girl, to do all these things.

Other people’s wheat has sprouted, but their fields haven’t been plowed yet.

As a village cadre, he had the obligation to help families in need, so he agreed immediately. As for the question of money, he pretended not to hear.

Qiao Zhixia took care of the affairs in the fields and left some vegetables grown by Lingquan for her parents.

These dishes are good for the body and may help my parents’ illness to some extent.

She had to go to the city and would not be back until the next day.

The city is very different from the county town. The prosperity here is on a higher level and the population is more densely populated.

She was not very familiar with the city, so she spent half a day investigating the location for her stall.

Finally, we chose two locations: the city’s largest fruit and vegetable morning market in the early morning, and the snack street with many restaurants in the afternoon.

She made a special sign before setting up the stall this time, which read [Jingyang vegetables, taste before you buy.]

Before daybreak, she left the guesthouse and loaded the rented tricycle with food from the space.

As soon as her dishes were put on the table, their outstanding presentation quickly attracted a large crowd of people coming to buy them.

“How much do you sell this pink tomato?”

"One piece per pound."

"What? The vegetable stalls in the market only sell it for 1.5 cents. Yours is too expensive."

Undoubtedly, Qiao Zhixia’s pricing also scared away many people.

But at the same time, because of the high price and good quality, it also attracted more people to watch.

As long as someone is watching, you have a chance.

Qiao Zhixia began to distribute food samples to the people who gathered around her. Tomatoes were fine, but lettuce and even white radish were cut out and eaten raw.

A group of city dwellers who thought they had seen the world were stunned.

But once the first person tastes it, there will be a second and a third.

Everyone who has tasted it has an expression of amazement.

"I've been eating this dish for decades, but I've never tasted anything this delicious."

"Yes! It tastes really good, no wonder it's so expensive."

"Can you give me a discount? Each tomato weighs two kilograms. If I buy one for two yuan, I won't be able to report it when I get home!"

People started to negotiate the price.

However, Qiao Zhixia always sticks to her bottom line and promotes her dishes from a health perspective.

"Brother, it's not worth spending two dollars on an ordinary tomato, but my tomato is a beauty fruit. The vitamins in it are very valuable. If my sister-in-law eats it, I guarantee she will look great."

"Is it true?" someone asked doubtfully.

"You'll know whether it's real or not after you try it. Two dollars won't buy you any loss or cheating." Qiao Zhixia found that although city dwellers are relatively wealthy, they are also really frugal.

But fortunately, after the first customer, the second and third appeared one after another.

"I want two tomatoes."

"I want two pounds of lettuce."

"Give me a big carrot..."

"Don't be anxious, come one by one..."

Qiao Zhixia was making a lot of money, and luckily her vegetables were all almost the same weight, so when she was busy she didn't even have to weigh them, she could just calculate.

In less than three hours, her cart of vegetables was almost sold out.
