The next day, he ate, basked in the sun, ate, basked in the sun, ate, and slept!
The third day, same as above!
Li Weidong's life was always so simple.
Perhaps he would occasionally go out for a walk and blend in with this era.
However, every night, he would work hard to farm in the game farm.
Looking at the rapidly maturing pumpkins, all the hard work turned into relief.
As long as he kept lying flat and basking in the sun, there would be white buns, eggs, and meat.
Therefore, on the third day, when it was the appointed day, he got out of bed before dawn.
"Second brother, are you going to the black market again?”
Suddenly, Li Weibin's faint voice came from behind.
"Yes."
Li Weidong didn't turn on the lights and put on his clothes in the dark.
"Second brother, can you bring me there?”Li Weibin probed.
"No, wait at home obediently. I'll bring you eggs.”
Li Weidong refused without thinking.
Bring him there?
What a joke.
Did he really think that Zhang Xiuzhen had no desires?
"Oh."
With Li Weibin's personality, he would never know how to resist. He stuffed himself back into bed.
In the past three days, the energy he obtained from sunbathing was a little less than expected. The main reason was that he felt uncomfortable after being under the sun for a long time.
He could not imagine what Xia Tian would be like.
Could it be that he had to expose himself to the sun?
But that would kill people.
Last night, Li Weidong had counted 18 pumpkins on the farm.
This time, he was prepared to exchange for another 20 eggs, and his main goal was still the 10 catties of wheat that he had agreed on.
After all, with the seed, there would be unlimited possibilities.
Otherwise, what kind of family could exchange tens of kilograms of flour a month?
That Hou San was such a shrewd person, it would be strange if he didn't suspect anything.
More importantly, he couldn't just keep moving pumpkin to the black market.
In addition, the cost-performance ratio of the pumpkin was too low. It could be used as the first pot of gold, but with wheat seeds, there was no need to waste time.
With the experience from last time, Li Weidong directly carried the two pumpkins in a broken gunny sack and went straight to the uncle who was exchanging eggs.
On the way, people stopped him from time to time to ask what was in his bag.
Li Weidong didn't hide anything from him. He opened the sack and let the other party take a look.
Although there were also people asking about the price, most people didn't care.
It was still the same position, the same middle-aged man.
When the other party saw Li Weidong's arrival, he stood up immediately, his eyes never leaving the sack.
"Uncle, do you still want to change?" Li Weidong asked.
"Change."
The middle-aged man nodded and asked casually,""Your pumpkin tastes quite good and sweet. It shouldn't be a variety from around here, right?”
"Uncle, to tell you the truth, an uncle of mine works at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. This is a new breed that they have carefully cultivated. It hasn't been officially promoted yet and is still in the confidential stage.”
Li Weidong moved closer and explained in a low voice.
Hearing his words, the middle-aged man's pupils constricted, and his face was filled with joy.
"Little brother, can we plant these pumpkin seeds in the countryside?”
"It should work, right?"
Li Weidong wasn't sure.
In fact, this pumpkin was just an ordinary pumpkin on the market. It had only grown so big after being nurtured by the game farm.
As for whether there was gene optimization or mutation, he was not sure.
"Uncle, to be honest, this pumpkin seed was given to me by my uncle. It can be considered as an experiment for the Academy of Agricultural Sciences. Since it's an experiment, there must be a certain risk. But don't worry, no matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than the pumpkin on the market now.”
Li Weidong's last words were still a guarantee.
Wasn't the so-called seed cultivation just the optimization of planting from generation to generation?
To a certain extent, it could be considered an optimization.
And even if it didn't work, these pumpkin seeds would at most return to their original state and couldn't shrink anymore.
"Alright, alright."
The middle-aged man was satisfied with the answer.
The last time he brought the pumpkin back, someone thought that the pumpkin was too big and probably wouldn't taste good.
At that time, he thought that it was enough to fill his stomach. If it was not delicious, he could make do with it.
Unexpectedly, when it was steamed, it had a very special fragrance. When it was eaten, it was far more delicious than the usual pumpkin. It was also anti-hunger.
He had originally wanted to dry and fry the pumpkin seeds for his child to eat, but his wife's casual words woke him up.
That's right, why didn't they keep the seeds and plant them themselves next year?
Not only would they plant it themselves, but they would also mobilize the entire village to plant it together. This way, the pumpkin harvest next year might double, and everyone would not have to go hungry anymore.
After discussing it with his elder brother who was the village director, this thought became even stronger.
Then, he collected all the eggs he could get in the village.
He even came yesterday, but unfortunately, Li Weidong did not show up.
For this reason, he even rejected several people who wanted to exchange noodles for eggs.
After confirming that the pumpkin seeds could continue to be planted, the middle-aged man hurriedly said,"Little brother, your pumpkin is really good. Can you give me a few more? I brought 52 eggs today."
"So many?"
Li Weidong was also quite surprised. He did not know where the other party got such courage from.
"No more pumpkin?" The middle-aged man asked worriedly.
"Yes, but there are so many eggs. I can't finish them all in a short time.”
Li Weidong was in a difficult position. He had planned to exchange 20 eggs this time, and the rest for wheat seeds and flour. If he could find a meat seller, he could also exchange some.
"If you can't finish it, you can save it. Little brother, please help me. I'll give you a discount this time. 52 eggs for your four pumpkins.”
The middle-aged man was obviously going all out. For the pumpkin seeds, even if he suffered a little loss, it was worth it.
"To tell you the truth, it's really not easy for us in the countryside. The days when we can eat our fill can be counted on the fingers of our fingers. These pumpkin seeds can be said to be the hope of our village next year, so I hope you can help us.”
Li Weidong shook his head.
Immediately, the middle-aged man's face was filled with dejection.
"Uncle, I think we should follow the price from last time. 50 eggs for five pumpkins, and I'll pay for the remaining two eggs.”
Li Weidong could make Widow Qin pay for the eggs, beat Liu Guangtian into a pig's head, and even bully others.
But at the very least, he still had a conscience.
Moreover, be it in his previous life or the Host's current life, they were both born in the countryside, so he knew very well that most people there were very simple and it was really difficult.
Therefore, he did not mind helping the other party if he could.
However, that was all for now.
He wouldn't give her all his pumpkin just because he was touched for a moment.
That wasn't loyalty, it was madness.
"Really? Thank you, thank you."
The middle-aged man thought that Li Weidong wouldn't agree, but he was as happy as a child.
