Chapter 178: Genetic Mutations! This Is Youcheng County’s Luck! 2

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

How had he found the watermelons?

What about the strawberries and okras?

Now that the villa was getting popular, more people were noticing it. Presumably, some people had already noticed these things.

He did not believe that there were no other scenic spots or restaurants that did not want to buy some watermelons, strawberries, and okra from Qinglin Villa!

Therefore, Qin Lin naturally thought hard for a long time before coming up with such an excuse.

It was true that there was a flaw in the rhetoric, but it wasn’t irreparable, because some versions of Ranches Story had fertilizer.

Those fertilizers could make plants grow quickly or change their genes.

In the forum of the new version of the game, there were also some super hard working players who had already obtained special soil. The effect was similar, which meant that this new version of the game also had such things.

That made it easier.

At this stage, if others asked, it would be ambiguous. When he got such things in the future and went to his hometown to get them, he would say that there was something wrong with the fields.

Naturally, that was only one way. If it didn’t work, he’d come up with plenty of other ideas.

Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen did not ask further when they heard Qin Lin’s words.

They were not in the agricultural business, so it would be a pity if such delicious melons went extinct.

......

Li Qing squatted down and knocked on a watermelon. At the same time, he said, “Boss Qin, the situation with your watermelon should be a genetic mutation.”

“A lot of crops mutate when they adapt to the environment. It’s not uncommon in real life. Flowers like the monthly season, azaleas, and new varieties of pineapple honey can mutate everywhere. Even the common corn and rice more or less have varieties with genetic mutations.”

“Some of these genetically mutated crops are for the better. They either produce more or are more delicious. The worst mutations are basically artificially destroyed.”

“Aren’t some space crops popular now? That’s because it’s easy for genes to mutate when those crops are brought into space. Our country already has experiments carrying out space genetic mutations in wheat, corn, rice, peanuts, soybeans, sesame seeds, and so on. I heard that there are also some results.”

Ma Liewen smiled and said, “Not bad, Li Qing. You know quite a bit.”

Li Qing explained, “I can’t help it. You know that my uncle is in the agricultural research field. When he’s at home, only I can chat with him. He’s only interested in research, so that’s all he can say.”

“Pfft!” Lin Liu chuckled when he heard Li Qing’s words. “One talks about agricultural research and the other talks about wine. It’s hard for them to be able to chat so enthusiastically when they’re not talking about the same thing.”

These words made everyone laugh.

Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen even looked at each other. Perhaps Li Qing and his uncle were not talking about their respective specialties, but about the same problem.

In a family like Li Qing’s, a child’s path was basically fixed. They would either take the path of their parents or find something they liked to do like Li Qing.

After all, generations of connections had determined that their descendants would walk that path faster and easier.

Li Qing’s brother and cousin had taken that path and stood out among the younger generation. They were the people that the family cared about the most.

On the other hand, someone like Li Qing, who was really not interested in that path, could only let it go. He would be an idle person for the rest of his life and no one would dare to provoke him. Everyone would give him face. However, he could not do business nor any career that would show his face. It was very difficult for him to have his own career.

Only when the old man passed away would his son’s generation not have such restrictions.

Like Li Qing, the other party’s uncle, Li Kai, did not want to take the same path as the old man. Moreover, he liked agricultural research and was also staying at an official agricultural research institute in Ming City. He had gained some fame.

“Sigh, let’s not talk about that.” Li Qing shook his head and walked curiously toward the big shed.

Qin Lin also walked into the greenhouse. He squatted down to check the vines of ordinary watermelons and game seeds, only to discover that some of the leaves had withered.

That made him frown. It wasn’t good for the vines to have yellow leaves when they were just spreading. They tended to rot the vines.

He hurriedly disposed of all the yellowing leaves.

Li Qing looked at the two types of watermelon seedlings in the greenhouse and suddenly asked, “Boss Qin, if your seeds are successfully cultivated, will the quality of the watermelons be as delicious as those watermelons?”

Qin Lin knew that Li Qing was talking about watermelons of Quality 2. He smiled and continued to fabricate, “Mr. Li, there’s really no way to guarantee that. Those watermelons are from the batch of seedlings that were discovered in the beginning. As you know, seedless watermelons don’t have seeds. The watermelons in the courtyard are planted with seeds that have been cultivated.”

“Then try those watermelons.” Li Qing immediately suggested and walked out of the greenhouse. “It’s definitely amazing that the seeds you cultivated can grow such delicious watermelons.”

These words also interested Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen.

Chen Shengfei said, “That’s right, try this melon!”

“I’ll pick one myself.” Ma Liewen tapped one of those watermelons. He looked at it and picked it. No one knew if he understood which one was ripe.

However, judging by the way he chose a few and gave up, he couldn’t tell.

Qin Lin actually knew that the taste of these melons was only Quality 1.

A Quality 2 seed could only grow a Quality 2 watermelon at Level 3 in the game. Outside, its attributes would decrease.

However, he did not expose them. Instead, he carried two watermelons and led Li Qing and Chen Shengfei to the kitchen in the hall.

There was a new kitchen over at the dining room. Moreover, the tools and kitchenware were new. Although Master Lin had brought everyone over there, it did not mean that this kitchen was abandoned. It still worked.

Moreover, Master Lin would still bring people to clean the kitchen.

Qin Lin placed the two watermelons in the pool and washed them. Then, he took a knife and cut open both watermelons. Then, he cut them into pieces and handed them to Li Qing, Chen Shengfei, and the others.

Chen Shengfei and the others also tasted the melon.

A moment later, Chen Shengfei said, “It tastes good, but it seems to be a lot worse than the 200 yuan per catty…”

Ma Liewen nodded. “It’s a lot worse.”

Watermelons of Quality 1 were more delicious than ordinary watermelons, but Chen Shengfei and the others had already eaten watermelons of Quality 2. Previously, Ma Liewen had bought more than 100 watermelons for his activities. Tang Wan, who had never been here, had also eaten watermelons of Quality 2.

Therefore, this Quality 1 watermelon did not surprise them too much.

Tang Wan suddenly said, “But it’s still better than the ones sold at Li Fei’s.”

Chu Qing nodded and said, “Indeed, Li Fei’s things are always so good and expensive, but none of them are as delicious as Boss Qin’s. I wonder if he used inferior products to fool us in the past.”

The two women obviously had something against Li Fei.

After all, they had spent a lot of money on Li Fei in the past. Now that they realized that the other party’s things were only so-so, they were naturally a little dissatisfied.

Lin Liu said, “Li Fei sells luxury goods, so they look good. Boss Qin’s goods are all practical. Are those luxury goods you bought durable? They only look good.”

Hearing this, Tang Wan and Chu Qing looked at each other.

Could such an analogy be used?

It seemed to make sense.

“How do you think this melon compares to that Black Beauty and Qilin Watermelon from Watermelon County?” Li Qing suddenly asked.

“Eh, it’s much more delicious.” When Chen Shengfei heard this, he immediately understood what Li Qing meant. He remembered that there was a produce company that sold watermelons. Its market value was not low.

Ma Liewen also said, “This is competitiveness. It seems that there aren’t any watermelon production bases under Ming City. Boss Qin, try your best to cultivate these watermelon seeds. Just keeping this taste alone will make you rich.”

Even their wives understood their conversation.

They didn’t know about Watermelon County, but they knew that Boss Qin’s watermelons tasted much better than ordinary watermelons. They would definitely be very popular after planting them and wouldn’t have to worry about selling them.

“Youcheng County is really lucky to have you here, Mr. Qin.” Li Qing looked at Qin Lin and sighed.

Because of his family, he naturally knew that once this watermelon could be mass-produced, it would not only bring Boss Qin’s financial income.

After this melon was cultivated, Youcheng County should worship him.
