"I don't think so," Wang Yao said. He could tell that Wang Yao was being perfunctory.
"Did you leave your phone number?"
"Yes," Wang Yao said.
"Let's talk about it," Wang Yao said.
"Xiaoyan, how did it go?"
Wang Yao asked. "Not good. He doesn't even have a proper job. He said he was planting herbs at home," Li Xiaoyan said with a pout.
"It's good to be self-employed!"
Wang Yao asked. "What's so good about it? I heard that there was a graduate from a famous university who planted herbs at home. He lost all his money and jumped into the river to commit suicide. Could it be him?"
Wang Yao asked. "Really? I'll ask around for you. I don't want him to be an idiot!"
After seeing the two people off, Wang Yao went back to Nanshan Hill. He didn't take the blind date seriously. His mind was on the herbal field.
Wang Yao watered, weeded, and loosened the soil. Days passed.
During this period, under his mother's urging, he had contacted Li Xiaoyan a few times, but she was lukewarm. In the end, he directly told his mother that she didn't like him, and the matter was finally settled.
It was September. The weather was getting colder.
Under the ancient spring water, Wang Yao's herbal field, less than two acres of sealwort, grew rapidly. The sealwort was even taller than a person.
"Damn! It's so tall! It doesn't make sense!" Wang Yao said in surprise.
Not only his sealwort, but also the jujube trees next to the cottage. They were as thick as a bowl. The branches were full of fruits. They were dark red and shiny. They were big and full. They emitted a unique fragrance of jujube, which could be smelled from far away.
Wang Yao picked a few and put them into his mouth.
Crunch! They were very crisp, sweet, and juicy.
Delicious!
He had never eaten such delicious jujubes. He quickly picked a few and planned to take them home for his parents to try.
It seemed that he could sell them for money.
Thinking of this, he picked a few more and weighed them. They weighed more than 50 kilograms. Even so, he only had less than one-third of the fruit on the tree.
"How many dates does this tree bear?"
After bringing the dates back, she washed a plate and let her parents have a taste.
"It's so sweet. Where did you pick it?" Sister Zhang Xiuying was surprised. She had stayed in the mountain village for decades and had visited all the nearby mountains, but she didn't remember any jujube trees as good as this one.
"The jujube trees beside the cottage. I'm going to go to the city tomorrow to see if I can sell them."
"Well, okay. By the way, let's settle some work matters. It's been more than 20 days. Why hasn't the unit you mentioned last time replied?"
Wang Yao was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat. This was the lie he told his mother the last time he came back from the city. He didn't expect her to still remember it.
The next day, Wang Yao went up the mountain as usual and watered the herbal field.
The ancient spring water that came with the magical system was really magical. It could not only promote the growth of plants, but also bring great benefits to humans and animals.
After drinking ancient spring water for more than 20 days, he found that there were obvious changes in the attributes of the system.
Physique 1.5, Spirit 1.1, Agility 1.1, Willpower 1.2, Strength 1.1.
Among them, physique had the most obvious improvement.
Not only him, but also his parents' complexion was much better. San Xian's fur was brighter, and it seemed to have grown up and become smarter.
All these showed the extraordinariness of the ancient spring pot, and also set off the magical system. After all, this was just the beginning of the gift. There must be more mysterious things in the future. After experiencing it himself, Wang Yao began to have high expectations of the system.
What would be in the future?
After finishing his work on the mountain, he went out to the city with more than 50 kilograms of fresh dates, a scale, a stool, and several bags.
He first found a big fruit wholesaler. The wholesaler just glanced at his dates and said, "Two kilograms."
The wholesaler's attitude was very cold, which made Wang Yao very angry.
"I have to sell them at a high price!"
He walked around the neighborhood and finally chose a place where fruit and vegetables were sold. He found a place and put the bag of dates on the ground. He sat on the folding stool and was too embarrassed to call out, so he waited for a buyer to come. But the peddlers selling fruits and vegetables next to him were shouting enthusiastically.
"How much are the dates?" After waiting for a long time, someone finally came to ask about the price.
"Ten yuan per kilogram," Wang Yao said.
"What? So expensive!" The man was surprised, then he turned around and left.
"Hey, young man, is this your first time to buy things from a stall? What dates are you selling? Why are they so expensive? Others are selling it for three yuan, or five yuan at most. You are good. You are selling it for ten yuan. It's so expensive. I'm sure no one will buy it! "A kind-hearted middle-aged man next to him listened to Wang Yao's offer and kindly advised him.
"My dates are delicious."
"No matter how delicious they are, they shouldn't be so expensive!"
"Try them first." Wang Yao grabbed a handful of dates and handed them to the man.
"Thank you. Hey, they look good!"
The man took the jujubes and saw that they were plump and red all over, unlike other jujubes that were either green or red. It was very rare to see jujubes that were red all over. Moreover, the jujubes were shiny and had a unique fragrance that made one want to eat them just by looking at them.
When he put them into his mouth, they were crisp and juicy. There was a hint of sourness in the sweetness.
Delicious, delicious!
"Mmm, mmm, mmm!" The man ate five dates in a row before he stopped.
"How is it?"
"Delicious. I have never eaten such delicious dates. Young man, you are selling them too cheaply. 15 yuan per kilogram!" the man said.
"Ah!?" This time, it was Wang Yao's turn to be shocked.
"What are you talking about? It is so delicious. People will definitely buy it. The rarer something is, the more expensive it is. There are many rich people in the city. Listen to me."
"Okay, eat more if you like it. There is still a big bag of dates!"
"How can I accept it?"
"How much are the dates?" While they were talking, another man came to ask about the price.
"15 yuan per kilogram."
"How much?" The man was also shocked. He thought he had misheard.
"15 yuan per kilogram."
"What dates are so expensive?!"
"Try it first and see if it is worth the price." Wang Yao pointed at the dates in the bag.
The man took one, wiped it, and put it into his mouth. His eyes lit up and he was surprised.
"It is delicious. Give me 1 kilogram!"
"Okay!" Wang Yao quickly weighed 1 kilogram and handed it to the man.
He thought it would start soon. However, he waited for the whole morning. There were many people passing by, but they immediately turned around and left when they asked about the price.
"What is going on? Should I lower the price?"
Just as he was hesitating, people in the factory and work units were off work. The traffic on the road increased.
"Where is it?"
"It is just in front!"
With a screech, a car stopped by the roadside. Four people, two men and two women, got out of the car. They were neatly dressed. The four people went straight to Wang Yao's stall.
