Rong Shichu scrolled down the page again and found a plant that looked very much like corn. She looked at its name and it was indeed corn, but this corn was very short, about one meter tall, and the corn cob was only about ten centimeters. Both the plant and the cob were half the size of the corn Rong Shichu remembered. This was another mutation.
She continued reading with great interest. Many plants were almost the same as they were tens of thousands of years ago, without much mutation; but there were also many plants that had mutated so much that even their mothers could not recognize them. They did not resemble their ancestors tens of thousands of years ago in the slightest. If it were not for the names and introductions, Rong Shichu would not have been able to recognize them at all.
"I have really broadened my horizons," Rong Shichu sighed. Fortunately, the strawberry seedling she had helped to grow before was similar to the one tens of thousands of years ago, otherwise she would definitely not believe what Rong Gu said.
After seeing all kinds of strange and bizarre plants, Rong Shichu found the most reputable auction house in the capital star and filled out an application form for online plant auction. He planned to wait until tomorrow to accelerate the growth of the strawberry seedlings and produce a few vibrant strawberries. He would then auction them when they looked good, and he would definitely be able to sell them for a high price.
After finishing this important task, Rong Shichu took a shower and went to bed.
She got up early the next morning, drank a tube of nutritional supplement for breakfast, and then went to stimulate the growth of strawberries excitedly.
After she had mastered the basic knowledge left by the Rong family's ancestors last night, the planting ability she used became smooth and continuous, extremely easy, and not at all as difficult as the original owner remembered, nor as awkward and blocked as she had felt last night. The ability flowed from her fingertips to the roots of the strawberries like water, and the strawberry seedlings grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After a while, several white flowers bloomed, and then quickly withered. Small strawberries grew from the top, one, two, three...
When two of the strawberries grew up and turned red, Rong Shichu stopped outputting his supernatural powers. At this time, the strawberries in this pot were growing most vigorously, with lush flowers and leaves, and some raw and some ripe fruits. Everything seemed so vibrant and lovely to look at.
Rong Shichu was very satisfied. She used Star Brain to take beautiful photos of the pot of strawberries from various angles, then excitedly logged into the auction website and uploaded the photos of the strawberries.
"Miss! How come this pot of strawberries is growing so fast? Have you used your supernatural power again? Is your mental power exhausted? You must not lose sight of the main goal." When Rong Gu saw the pot of strawberries that Rong Shichu brought back, she was so scared that she quickly scanned her whole body again, and then she kept nagging that she was fooling around and didn't care about her mental power at all...
Rong Shichu hurriedly comforted her and told her about the strawberry auction.
"Miss, it's up to you to decide. I also think the auction can bring in more money. We are short of money right now." Rong Gu said without any temper. Then, she watched Rong Shichu discuss various matters with the customer service of the auction company and sighed, "Miss, you have really grown up and become sensible. You can handle these things on your own."
The tone of voice was so comforting that Rong Shichu was very upset. This robot nanny was too much like a real person and even had human emotions.
He called a delivery robot to come to his house, packaged the strawberries and delivered them to the auction company, and Rong Shichu was free now.
"I'll go to the open space in the yard and see what kind of vegetables would be suitable to grow." Rong Shichu said as he walked into the yard.
Rong Gu followed behind her, chattering all the way, reporting to Rong Shichu as if she was giving an academic report on the total area of the open space in the yard, what type of soil it was, what nutrients it contained, and what plants were suitable for planting...
Rong Shichu was very surprised and asked, "Aunt Rong, aren't you a parenting robot? How come you even have the soil analysis for our yard?"
Rong Gu rolled her eyes in a very humane way and said, "A nanny also needs to teach children knowledge. Although the knowledge of soil analysis is a bit advanced, you come from a family of planters, so you must know the soil in your own yard, right
Actually, I should have told you this when you were 18, but you didn’t pay attention to planting at that time, let alone understanding the open space in the yard, so I didn’t tell you...
Fortunately, you are now interested in this place, so I can finally give you the information that Mr. left behind."
"The information left by Mr.? What Mr.?" Rong Shichu asked puzzledly after hearing her last sentence.
"Sir is your father. He left this information in my chip before he died." Rong Gu replied.
Rong Shichu couldn't help but be stunned. It turned out that the original owner had a relative who loved her and was looking forward to her birth and growing up. It was just that this relative died too early, causing her to grow up alone and finally died because of a scumbag.
The information that Father Rong left in Aunt Rong's chip will probably never see the light of day again in the original owner's lifetime.
Rong Shichu felt it was a pity, and she said to Rong Gu: "Please send a copy of this information to my Xingnao."
"Okay, miss." Rong Gu agreed immediately.
Rong Shichu squatted in the open space, trying hard to think of his favorite vegetables in his mind: broccoli, carrots, lettuce, tomatoes, green cabbage, cucumbers, pumpkins, winter melons, watermelons...
Oh no, watermelon is not a vegetable. Rong Shichu swallowed her saliva. She really wanted to eat watermelon now. A sweet and big watermelon. It would be most enjoyable to cut it in half and eat it with a spoon.
"Aunt Rong, I want to grow watermelons in the yard!" She wanted to do it as soon as she thought about it, and wanted to buy watermelon seeds immediately.
“But miss, if you grow watermelons, you can only grow a small amount of vegetables, otherwise you won’t be able to take care of them.” Rong Gu reminded her.
"It doesn't matter if it's less. At worst I can just continue drinking nutritional supplements!" Rong Shichu said nonchalantly.
"Then Miss, if you want to plant it, just plant it." Rong Gu was helpless.
Rong Shichu immediately opened her Star Brain and bought watermelon seeds on the Star Network. However, when she was about to pay, a prompt popped up: "Your balance is insufficient and you cannot pay." Rong Shichu's eyes almost popped out.
Only then did she remember what Rong Gu told her last night, that there were only 521 star coins left at home, and one watermelon seed cost 1,000 star coins, and Rong Shichu only had enough money to buy half a seed...
Rong Shichu's newly-awakened enthusiasm for growing watermelons was immediately dampened by the cruel reality. She never expected that one day, she couldn't even afford a single watermelon seed. She was really in a desperate situation. When had she ever been short of money
I wonder if the gold, silver, jewelry, and antique books in her companion space still have a market in the interstellar era? There are many valuable plants in her companion space, but she can't take them out openly. It's really like begging for food while guarding a gold mountain. It's really miserable.
"Miss, don't be sad. Once the strawberries are sold, you will have money to buy watermelon seeds." Rong Gu comforted her.
"I'm not sad, just a little surprised." Rong Shichu answered absentmindedly, but his mind was thinking quickly about which plant in her space was suitable to be taken out quietly.
