The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead-Chapter 453 - 452: A New Reward

On the day the live broadcast ended, the shop promptly sold fruits right at midnight.

After the peaches were snatched up, the grapes were not far behind.

However, the sale of grapes was divided into two types. One was a whole bunch of large grapes, one bunch for One Hundred Thousand Star Coins.

The other was small packages sold grape by grape, with a price of two thousand Star Coins each, which was also to allow some people to at least taste the flavor of these grapes.

When all of the new fruits had been sold out that evening, there were still many people backstage, frantically begging for fruits.

The shop’s unified reply was, "New products will be available at ten a.m. tomorrow."

Many people set their alarms, and wealthy families even had their servants, and some even hired people, specifically to snatch these fruits.

To these wealthy individuals, if they couldn’t get their hands on the fruit, they would feel excluded by other nobles or wealthy people.

If everyone had it and you didn’t, it was a sign that your connections were poor, your finances were poor, and in short, it indicated shortcomings in every aspect.

Early the next morning, just after Nian Shutong had returned, she received a reminder from Xiao Ba.

"Ding! Host has achieved a new fruit harvesting milestone, successfully unlocking three new fruits: apples, mulberries, and large cherries. Please check your inventory."

"Ding! Host has achieved a new milestone in meat and egg production, successfully unlocking three animals: ducks, dairy cows, and silkworm babies. Please check your inventory."

"Ding! Host has achieved a new crop harvesting milestone, successfully unlocking three plants: alfalfa, sunflowers, and roses. Please check your inventory."

Ding Ding Ding, three notifications added nine new products for Nian Shutong.

With these few items coming out, Nian Shutong pretty much understood System Xiao Ba’s intention. Was it not eavesdropping on her thoughts?

What was up with the silkworm babies? And what about the matching alfalfa and dairy cows?

However, all of these were very beneficial for her, so Nian Shutong couldn’t very well take advantage of what she was given and then turn around to scold them.

So she thanked Xiao Ba and then turned around to begin arranging the cultivation and husbandry of these items.

After breakfast, Fu Yunhe noticed Nian Shutong had become busy. Normally, she no longer needed to worry too much about everything.

But when he saw the new items that Nian Shutong brought out, he knew that there were new varieties available.

Fu Yunhe just glanced at them. He never inquired about the origins of these items in Nian Shutong’s possession, feeling that he didn’t need to know.

At this time, Nian Shutong was very busy.

She first went to the breeding grounds, fenced off an area, and sowed the alfalfa seeds, waiting until they grew a bit before buying dairy cows.

But the ducks could be purchased right away. Before buying them, she created a small pond for the ducks to swim in.

She bought a total of ten thousand ducks and instructed the rooster, Red Crown, to keep an eye on them. The rest she left unattended, as there would be people to take care of them properly.

Next, she arranged for people to dig holes in the mountain to plant large cherry trees, and she also found a special place to plant mulberries, by the way, raising silkworm babies.

With these silkworm babies, she would have silk and silken fabrics available to her.

She could even have better silk threads for embroidery, rather than the current interstellar threads that really can’t compare to silk threads.

Finally, all that was left were the sunflowers and roses. Nian Shutong planted both in the flower district.

The sunflowers were not only for viewing, but also edible, killing two birds with one stone.

As for the roses, Nian Shutong wasn’t sure what to do with them yet, so she decided to plant them for now.

Although Nian Shutong was only arranging for others to work, it still took three full days to manage these tasks.

Three days later, she spent about half of the large sum of money she made from fruit, investing all of it into new plantings.

Not only that, but the profits from other factories were also continuously supplied to Rubble’s research.

Once all of this was stably arranged, Nian Shutong felt an urge to go out again.

This time, she was heading out to find the Crystal Stone mentioned by the little white mouse; she currently had no top-grade crystal stones.

Because, remarkably, there were no top-grade crystal stones among this time’s rewards.

She asked System Xiao Ba about it, and Xiao Ba’s response was natural.

"There’s no rule saying you should get one every time!"

Right, what it said was spot on.

Since there were none, she naturally wanted to find new Crystal Stones, even though there were still plenty of high-level ones; however, for Rubble’s purposes, it was not good to exchange them for anything else, and Xiao He also needed top-grade crystal stones to break through and advance. In short, they were in short supply.

In the evening, after Little River Live ended, Nian Shutong stopped those who were about to leave. This time, she didn’t let everyone choose for themselves but arranged it directly.

"I’m going out for a bit, and my return date is uncertain."

With just one sentence, everyone’s attention gathered on Nian Shutong.

"This time, I will take Xiao He with me; the rest of you, follow Lin Mu’s instructions."

Others felt indifferent about Nian Shutong’s decision, but Lin Mu looked at Nian Shutong with confusion.

"Don’t look at me like that; it’s you. After all, you’ve managed more than a thousand people before."

Lin Mu stared at Nian Shutong for a while, knowing she was serious; she then earnestly said, "I’ll keep watch and wait for your return."

"I trust you."

Nian Shutong did trust Lin Mu, but definitely not as much as she trusted Fu Yunhe. This was also a test; if all went well, then the Lotus Root that she had obtained would be ready to give to Lin Mu.

When Nian Shutong had first obtained the medicine, she thought of Lin Mu, but appreciation alone was not enough to heal her wounds just after meeting her.

Not to mention, without having obtained the medicine, there wasn’t much she could have done.

It could only be said that fate was helping Lin Mu.

Nian Shutong made simple arrangements. If there were any issues, they could communicate, so it wasn’t as if they’d be out of touch.

After she finished speaking, she went to find Master Fan and asked him to take the trouble to prepare some food for her to take on her departure the next day.

Master Fan treated this task as his top priority, bustling about in the kitchen all night. The next day’s breakfast was just a pot of thin porridge with steamed buns, not minding anything else, because he had to cook for the Boss.

Nian Shutong watched Master Fan’s busy work, trying to convince him several times, but Master Fan replied, "Nothing from outside can compare to the taste of our own food, take more with you."

With such good intentions from Master Fan, Nian Shutong no longer declined. Actually, she didn’t want to eat outside food anyway.

Close to noon, Nian Shutong, in high spirits along with Fu Yunhe, boarded Shadowless.

Fu Yunhe was truly in a good mood; he was finally going to have some alone time with Nian Shutong.

No need to worry about being interrupted while talking, no need to eat with a large group of people, no fear of the conversation being sidetracked.

It wasn’t that he disliked the others, but he just wanted more time alone with Nian Shutong. Such moments were too rare in the small wooden house.

After the two boarded Shadowless, Nian Shutong said goodbye to everyone and started up Shadowless.

However, it seemed like someone who had just said farewell was missing, didn’t it?

Where did Dou Dou go?
