Reality can be a beautiful and soft girl who allows you to experience all the good things, or it can be a fat and fierce woman who makes you breathless, depending on how much money you have in savings.

…

The scorching sun in August makes people feel restless.

Youcheng County.

A shitty place where the average salary is 3,000 or 4,000 and the average house price is 12,000.

In the small fruit and vegetable shop, Qin Lin handed the vegetables in his hand to a middle-aged woman with a smile on his face: "Auntie, your vegetables, welcome to come next time."

After seeing the guests off, I looked at a few annoying flies and had to pick up a fly swatter to drive them away.

After a chaotic fight, several corpses were beheaded.

Qin Lin sat back at the cashier counter, picked up his phone and opened a new nostalgic game called "Story of Seasons".

This is a farming and development game that is very open and does not require much technical skills. It is a good way for people who run a shop to kill time.

It has been a year since I graduated, but I have not achieved anything. I majored in tourism management but now I am selling fruits and vegetables. However, reality always leaves me with no choice.

His family had been poor for three generations. His grandfather fell ill a few years ago, and before he died, his father worked hard from dawn to dusk in this fruit and vegetable shop to cover his grandfather's medical expenses and family expenses.

But it seemed like God was playing a joke on their family. After grandpa passed away, dad was also diagnosed with cancer due to long-term overwork.

My mother could barely make ends meet with this small fruit and vegetable shop. Even after selling the house and borrowing hundreds of thousands of dollars from everywhere to save my father, she still couldn't save him.

My mother herself has also developed health problems due to overwork. Her test results are not very good and she needs someone to take care of her.

Therefore, even if he had the opportunity to stay in a large company after graduation, he had to come back to take care of his mother and inherit this small fruit and vegetable store, including the family's foreign debt.

If the starting point for most people is 0, his is negative hundreds of thousands.

There is nothing fair in life.

It’s not that he hadn’t thought about looking for opportunities while running the store, but for a graduate, he not only lacked social experience, but also had no funds.

Relying on the income from this store to cover expenses and my mother's nutrition, plus paying off some foreign debts every month, is already a struggle. The balance on the card is less than 4,500 yuan.

He doesn't even have the right to go to the hospital if he has a cold.

After all, he can't make 100,000 or 1 million yuan a month by running a 30-square-meter fruit shop on the Tik Tok platform. That's a magical place where the average income per person is 100 million yuan.

Until his mother's health improves and she no longer needs care, he can only stay in this small shop to survive.

He sighed, controlled the game character and walked out of the room. In front of him were six squares of land planted with watermelons. He had just started the game and only these six squares were opened.

Weeding and watering!

After waiting for a while, the watermelons on the 6 grids of the ground also showed signs of ripening one after another. The flow of time in the game is always different. The watermelons that take several months to ripen in reality can ripen in more than ten hours in the game.

Each piece of land can produce about 15 to 20 watermelons.

Qin Lin was about to control the game character to pick watermelons when suddenly electric currents shot out from his mobile phone, paralyzing his whole body in an instant.

Leakage?

Qin Lin subconsciously wanted to curse.

This isn't a Samsung phone, how could a battery leak have such a huge impact?

"Ding! Special game channel activated, locked in the game "Story of Seasons", please wait..."

“???” Qin Lin patted his head.

Can you have hallucinations after getting an electric shock?

"Ding! The special game channel has been successfully connected. The game "Story of Seasons" has been connected. Is this the host's first time entering the game?"

At the same time, a very psychedelic picture appeared in Qin Lin's mind. It was a pasture with ripe watermelons lying on the six grids of ground.

Is this the game screen of "Story of Seasons"?

The game character was still standing in front of the watermelon field. He had just controlled the character to pick watermelons.

What was even more incredible was that as soon as he thought about it, the game character came forward and picked a watermelon.

Is this a way to play games in your mind using your thoughts?

Then, Qin Lin found a special prompt option above the screen: Do you want to enter?

"yes!"

Qin Lin thought about the previous hints, found it incredible, and tried to make a choice.

A strange suction force appeared, and almost instantly, the scene in front of his eyes changed.

In front of me is a lush green watermelon field.

There was a special fragrance of watermelon floating in the air, and he was holding a watermelon in his hand, as if he had replaced the game character.

"Isn't this an illusion?" Qin Lin was incredulous. The watermelon in his hand felt incredibly real, and a message was floating in his mind:

【Seedless Watermelon: Quality 1】

【Note: Although it is not a special type of watermelon, it is produced in the game and is the best among ordinary watermelons.

Delicious +1, Sweet +1, Taste +1. 】

The fruits grown in this version of Ranch Story have different qualities. The higher the quality, the tastier they are and the higher the selling price.

However, this note is different from the game, and it actually has attribute bonuses.

Qin Lin put down the watermelon in his hand and picked a few more. The same information appeared. Each one had the same remarks, with the attributes of delicious +1 and sweet +1.

He looked around again: the building with the windmill, the storage room, the fence...

Everything is the same as the game screen.

The only difference is that the land in front of you is really a vast piece of land, planted with watermelons. It is not a small modular grid in the game, and even the fruits planted are represented by numbers.

Moreover, looking at the time on the phone, after he came in, the flow of game time returned to normal.

Then, Qin Lin remembered something and hurriedly looked at the picture in his mind again.

He is afraid that he can't go back, so won't his mother be worried to death?

But the picture in my mind changed, and it turned into a scene in a fruit and vegetable store. The prompt above also changed: Do you want to exit?

This obviously means free entry and exit.

Qin Lin silently said to himself "quit", and that special sucking feeling appeared again. He returned to the fruit and vegetable store with a watermelon in his hand.

To make sure of its authenticity, he took a knife, placed the watermelon on the chopping board and cut it in half. The red flesh was exposed, but not a single seed was visible.

This is real!

Qin Lin took another half and cut it into several slices. He picked up a slice and wanted to taste it, but he was afraid that something might go wrong. After all, the watermelon was so incredible.

When I walked to the door of the store, I saw a dirty black dog hanging around in front of a trash can.

This is a market street, where food is easy to find and stray dogs often appear. When the relevant authorities catch one, a new one will arrive after a while.

This can only be blamed on the fact that there are too many people who obviously do not have the conditions but keep dogs on a whim.

Qin Lin threw a slice of watermelon directly over. The black dog pounced on it and pressed the watermelon with its claws. Then it subconsciously looked around and saw that there was nothing wrong before it lowered its head and ate it.

After waiting for some time and finding that there was nothing unusual about the black dog, Qin Lin picked up a petal and tasted it himself.

After taking a bite, Qin Lin's eyes lit up.

He understood more clearly what Watermelon's note meant.

It's incredibly sweet, deliciously juicy, incredibly sweet, and incredibly refreshing.

This watermelon is definitely much more delicious than the ones he usually buys.

Is this the result of the attributes of deliciousness +1, sweetness +1, and taste +1?

As someone who works in this field, he naturally understands that it would be great if there were only a few watermelons of this quality among a hundred, and every one in the game is like this.

After finishing one slice of watermelon, Qin Lin still enjoyed it and picked up the second slice to eat.

In fact, the profit from selling watermelons is not high. Even though the price has risen to 2 yuan per catty now, after deducting the cost of fruit farmers, labor, shipping costs, and wholesaler markups..., the wholesale price for a small fruit and vegetable store like his is already 1.5 yuan per catty, which means there is basically no profit.

But what if the watermelon has no cost? How many watermelons can be sold for pure profit?

Qin Lin's eyes lit up when he thought of the watermelons in the farm.

If one watermelon weighs 10 jin and one jin costs 2 yuan, that's 20 yuan. Ten watermelons mean a net profit of 200 yuan.

If he sells 20 melons a day, he can earn 12,000 yuan a month, which is more than what he can earn by working hard selling fruits and vegetables for a month.

There should be hundreds of watermelons in the game. The key is that the land in the game can be used to plant watermelons repeatedly, and the watermelons can mature in more than 10 hours.

"Woof woof!"

Qin Lin was just thinking when he heard a dog barking in his ears. It was the black dog squatting at the door of the store, staring at the melon in his hand.

This dog is obviously getting too far?

Fortunately, he was in a good mood. He took another slice of watermelon and threw it to the black dog, then pulled down the shutter of the shop.

This way, outsiders can't see what's going on in the store.

He took the basket used to purchase goods from the store, and with a thought, he entered the ranch again.

What caught his eye was still the watermelons all over the ground. Qin Lin was not polite at all and picked up the watermelons one by one and put them into the basket.

He filled the basket with 15 watermelons in a row before he took the basket and returned to the store.

Looking at the full basket of watermelons, Qin Lin's face was full of excitement.

You're going to get rich.

Looking at the light screen in my mind again, I saw that the number of watermelons on the ground in the game screen had reached 0, and the watermelon vines had withered. The system prompted me to remove them and replant them.

In the game, you can only pick the fruits of crops once, unlike in real life where the crops can grow again after being picked.

Qin Lin looked at the prompt and thought of something. He immediately controlled the game character through the game screen in his mind and picked the fruits in the other squares.

In an instant, several grids of land were harvested.

Qin Lin entered the game again. There were no watermelons on those plots of land. Only lonely watermelon vines remained.

He walked towards the storage room next to the house, and when he opened the door he saw hundreds of watermelons stored inside.

Can't you just bring in a basket and put it in? You were busy doing nothing just now.

There is an information sign in front of the watermelon pile.

Seedless Watermelon: 90 (Quality 1).

That is to say, there are 90 watermelons in this pile, and judging from the volume, they are definitely over 10 kilograms, so this pile is worth at least 1,700 yuan.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, Qin Lin returned to the store, picked up the basket again, entered the game, and filled the basket with watermelons.

He also discovered that as long as he touched the basket with his hand and exited the game with a thought, the basket of watermelons would follow him to the store outside.

It took him some time to move all the watermelons out, filling up a corner of the store.

Including the basket that was moved out at the beginning, there were a total of 105 watermelons.

After finishing, he looked at his mind again, which turned into the game screen again. Only watermelon vines were left on several plots of land, and it was prompted that they could be removed and replanted.

He immediately removed the watermelon vines and planted new watermelon seeds.

In this way, more than 10 hours later, another pile of watermelons came out.

Now we have to sell all these watermelons.

Qin Lin opened the shop's shutter door again. The black dog lay beside the door, looked up at him, then changed to a comfortable position and licked its paws.

The dog won't leave?

He didn't have time to care about the dog now. He put the basket of watermelons he had just brought out on the fruit stall and looked at the price tag of 2 yuan per catty.

This is his normal purchase price, but at this price, his shop only sells a few watermelons every day.

Looking at the watermelons taken out from the game, he changed the wholesale price to 1.5 yuan per catty. After all, the watermelons were free of cost, so they would sell better if the price was lowered.

But the situation was not as he expected. As the afternoon passed, he only sold a few watermelons. It was not because the watermelons were not good, but because the people who patronized his store were the ones who had the demand to buy watermelons.

After thinking about it, Qin Lin slapped his head and felt that he had chosen the wrong target. Since the wholesale price was 1.5 yuan per catty, there was no need to sell them one by one in the store.

He immediately took out his mobile phone and logged into a WeChat group.

This is a group of owners of fruit and vegetable shops in Youcheng. At first, no one knew who created it. They said it was a simple group to understand the market and avoid being cheated by wholesalers.

Normally, apart from a few people who like to hang out in the group, there is not much communication between them.

After opening the group chat, Qin Lin sent a message: The son of the uncle of my second uncle's nephew in my hometown has grown a batch of seedless watermelons. The watermelons are sweet and juicy. They are sold wholesale at 1.5 yuan per catty and delivered directly to your door. Anyone who is interested is welcome to come and taste them.

There are generally two channels for purchasing watermelons in Youcheng County.

One is to go to the fruit wholesale market, which is located in the logistics park on the other side of Youcheng, which is some distance away.

The other option is to go to the surrounding villages to purchase the goods.

Therefore, if the wholesale price is still 1.5 yuan, the melon tastes better, and it is delivered to your door, there is no need to worry about no one wanting it.

As soon as Qin Lin sent the message, three people showed up in the group.

"It turned out to be Xiao Qin."

"Has Xiao Qin switched to wholesale?"

"Then I'll join in the fun too?"

Qin Lin also knew the three people who sent the message. They all happened to have shops near Market Street.

Seeing that no one showed up in the group for the time being, Qin Lin made an appointment with the three people to meet at the store.

At this time.

Qin Lin also noticed a prompt on the game screen in his mind, indicating that the seeds needed to be watered for the first time.

He immediately used his mind to control the game character to go into the tool shed, take out the watering can, fill it with water from the river, and then water all the seeds.

A moment later, the three people who had made the appointment in the WeChat group arrived on electric scooters.

Two middle-aged men, Liu Dasheng and Chen Dahe, and a woman named Ai Quni.

As soon as Liu Dasheng entered the room, he said, "Xiao Qin, where's your melon? Take a look!"

Qin Lin pointed to a pile of watermelons on the ground and said, "Brother Liu, Brother Chen, Sister Ai, look at these watermelons."

Upon hearing this, the three of them went up to take a look.

We have been in this business for a long time, so we can naturally tell whether a melon is good or not.

The lines are clear, the depth is distinct...

The melon stem is still green and very fresh.

Can hear the sound.

These melons are obviously good.

"It looks really good." Liu Dasheng said with a smile.

Chen Dahe and Ai Quni also nodded.

However, there are too many unscrupulous wholesalers and fruit farmers now, so I still have to try the melons.

Qin Lin naturally understood and said to the three of them, "Three of you, pick one at random."

"Xiao Qin, let's take this one!" Liu Dasheng pointed at a watermelon at random.

Qin Lin nodded, picked up the watermelon and cut it in half, revealing the delicious flesh, which made people's appetite at first sight.

Qin Lin cut the two halves of the watermelon into small pieces before saying to the three of them, "Brother Liu, Brother Chen, Sister Ai, try some!"

Liu Dasheng and the other two didn't hesitate and each picked up a slice of watermelon and started eating.

"Woof woof!"

The black dog barked again. It seemed that it saw Qin Lin dividing the melon, so it took small tentative steps and squatted at the door of the store.

This is fucking dependent on me.

Seeing this, Qin Lin picked up another slice of watermelon and threw it to it.

If a dog eats too much watermelon, it will have diarrhea. Let it experience the wickedness of human nature. Then it will know that it cannot eat this thing and will not be reluctant to eat it.

With the attributes of deliciousness +1, sweetness +1, and taste +1, Liu Dasheng and the other two took only two bites before their eyes lit up.

"Good melon, it tastes much better than the ones I had before."

"Indeed, it's very sweet and juicy."

"Xiao Qin, are you really delivering the goods to your door?"

The three of them looked at Qin Lin. This melon looked good and tasted even better. It was available at the same wholesale price and could be delivered to their door. There was really no reason not to buy it.

Qin Lin explained, "Of course, we'll deliver it to your door."

The three of them nodded and immediately decided to each take 30 melons to try, and leave the remaining few for Qin Lin's own store.

The three people's shops were not far away, and Qin Lin did not collect the deposit. They agreed to pay after the watermelons were delivered to their door.

The reason why he wanted to deliver the goods to the door was naturally to keep it confidential. Although there were no surveillance cameras in his store, there were surveillance cameras everywhere in the market street.

He kept taking watermelons out of the store for no apparent reason. It was okay this time, but if there were too many, it would definitely attract attention.

After all, why do you keep going out to eat watermelons when you don't come in every day? If you get noticed, you might get into big trouble.

Therefore, I must find a secret place outside from now on.

After Liu Dasheng and the other two left, Qin Lin glanced at the black dog still chewing a watermelon outside the door, ignored it, closed the roller shutter door from the outside, and went to the inner area of the Market Street parking lot. He walked towards a three-wheeled agricultural truck with rusty horizontal rails and handrails, which no one wanted even if it was sold for 2,000 yuan.

But this car is used to transport goods. As long as there is no flat tire, it can still transport about one ton.

Qin Lin drove the three-wheeled truck to the front of the store, moved all the watermelons from the store into the truck, closed the store's rolling door again, and then got in the truck to deliver the watermelons to Liu Dasheng and the other two.

Liu Dasheng's shop is the closest to his store. They are both on Market Street, just a short distance away. The shop is called Dasheng Fruit Shop.

Liu Dasheng was chatting with a man holding a watermelon at the door. When he saw Qin Lin's three-wheeled truck stop, he pulled the man forward and said, "Xiao Chen, come and take a look at these freshly delivered watermelons. They are definitely fresh and good. Pick one and I'll cut it open for you to taste."

"Okay, Brother Liu." Xiao Chen nodded and walked to the car to pick it up.

Liu Dasheng also explained to Qin Lin: "Xiao Qin, this Xiao Chen is my upstairs neighbor and also a regular customer of mine. He likes to eat watermelons and always buys a few at a time. Let's pay together later."

"Okay." Qin Lin nodded.

Xiao Chen quickly picked a melon from Qin Lin's car and gave it to Liu Dasheng to weigh.

"Xiao Qin, this melon weighs 11 kilograms." After Liu Dasheng weighed it, he took it aside, cut it open, and handed a small piece to Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen and Liu Dasheng were old acquaintances, so they naturally took it and tasted it.

Soon, Xiao Chen said in surprise, "Brother Liu, this melon is very sweet and juicy. It's much better than the ones you sold before. How much is it?"

Liu Dasheng smiled and said, "Same price, 2 yuan per pound. How many do you want?"

"Brother Liu, let me pick four. Please take some time to send them to me." Xiao Chen said, and picked out four melons from Qin Lin's car for Liu Dasheng to weigh.

The last four melons weighed over 10 kilograms each, for a total of 47 kilograms.

Liu Dasheng said, "47 kilograms, 94 yuan. Xiao Chen, please mark it and I'll deliver it to you when I'm free."

"No need to mark it. I trust Brother Liu. I'll transfer the money via WeChat." Xiao Chen shook his head and took the phone to transfer money to Liu Dasheng.

After Xiao Chen left, Liu Dasheng called Qin Lin again: "Xiao Qin, it seems that the melons your relative planted are really good. Xiao Chen is usually very picky about watermelons."

Qin Lin was naturally happy too. He took a basket from Liu Dasheng's shop and started moving the melons.

Liu Dasheng sold 4 melons, which helped him earn more than 70 yuan.

Including the previous 5, Qin Lin put 25 in the basket and gave it to Liu Dasheng to weigh. The total weight was 287 kilograms. Together with the 47 kilograms bought by Xiao Chen, it was 334 kilograms. The wholesale price of 1.5 yuan was 501 yuan.

Liu Dasheng readily forwarded the WeChat message to Qin Lin.

Qin Lin also issued an invoice to Liu Dasheng, which is related to the tax filing of individual business owners.

"Brother Liu, come to me if you need anything. I'm going to deliver melons to the other two." Qin Lin's face was full of smiles. This one transaction alone was more than the profit he made from his fruit and vegetable shop after a hard day's work.

Next, Qin Lin gave 30 melons to Chen Dahe and Ai Quni respectively.

Chen Dahe's weighed a total of 360 kilograms, with a wholesale price of 540 yuan, while Aiquni's weighed 328 kilograms, with a wholesale price of 492 yuan.

Combined with Liu Dasheng's previous 501 yuan and 90 melons, he earned a total of 1,533 yuan.

When he returned to his shop, Qin Lin found that the black dog was still lying at the door of his shop, without any signs of diarrhea.

This shouldn't happen.

When the sun had completely set, Qin Lin had sold four of the remaining watermelons in his store. Together with the ones he had sold before, his store had earned 172 yuan.

In this way, the net profit from the melons taken out from the game is 1,705 yuan.

Qin Lin couldn't help but clench his fist and wanted to cheer. Just earning 1,705 yuan a day like this would be 51,150 yuan a month, which was definitely a high income in a small place like Youcheng County.

As Qin Lin was thinking, the game screen in his mind showed another prompt. There was grass growing, and he had to weed it immediately, otherwise the watermelon seedlings might wither because of the weeds.

After weeding, Qin Lin looked at the time and saw that it was completely dark, so he got up and packed up some leftover vegetables to take home. Then he pulled down the rolling door and went to the parking lot to ride the three-wheeled truck home.

Normally, he needs to drive this small truck to purchase goods early in the morning every day to replenish the store's consumption. However, tomorrow he only plans to use this truck to transport watermelons.

With an income of 1,700 yuan a day, there is no need to worry about the small profit from the daily sales of the fruit and vegetable shop. Even if the family owes hundreds of thousands of yuan, it can be paid off quickly.

Qin Lin rode his bike back to an older residential area. After his family sold their house, they rented a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment in this cheap community.

I walked into a house, went up to the third floor, and then returned to the rented suite, where I saw my mother Lin Fen preparing dinner.

Although the suite has two rooms, they are very narrow. They are divided into two rooms, and with some daily sundries piled up, it looks even narrower and darker.

With the current situation at home and hundreds of thousands of dollars in foreign debt, there is nothing we can do.

Qin Lin said as soon as he entered the room: "Mom, I told you to wait for me to come back and cook the meal."

"I can't do much work in this state, but I'm not paralyzed. Come and have dinner!" Lin Fen was in poor health and her complexion was not looking good, but there was still a hint of stubbornness in her words.

After working all her life, it would be even more uncomfortable for her to do nothing.

"Oh." Qin Lin helplessly put the dishes he brought back into the refrigerator.

Lin Fen handed a bowl of rice to Qin Lin and asked, "How is business today?"

"Well, it's better than yesterday, and it will be even better in the future." Qin Lin thought about what happened today and spoke with inexplicable confidence.

Lin Fen sighed when she heard her son's usual response. "Xiao Lin, your parents are sorry for you. Your peers all have parents who help them with the betrothal gifts and down payments. But your father and I have left you with hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt."

"Mom, what are you talking about? You and Dad gave birth to me, raised me, and sent me to school. This is the greatest favor." Qin Lin never blamed his parents. After all, he was in good health and had been taken care of by his parents since he was a child. This was better than many people.

The more her son talked about this, the more useless Lin Fen felt. She could only continue to sigh, "Xiao Lin, how are you and Mo Qing doing lately? Don't blame her parents. Mo Qing is a good girl, and her parents have done their best. They don't ask for a betrothal gift or a car, but only for a down payment on a small house. We can't afford that either. This is our own problem."

"You and Mo Qing should stay together first. When I'm better, I can look after the store and you can go find a job. We, mother and son, will work hard together to put a down payment on a house. If you and Mo Qing don't end up together, don't blame me!"

When Qin Lin heard this, he stopped eating.

Mo Qing is indeed a very nice person. They were in the same class in high school. During the three years of high school, they had never said hello except for seeing each other on the way to and from school. However, because they were admitted to the same university and bought adjacent seats on the same high-speed train, they officially got to know each other and gradually got together.

Fate is so wonderful.

He really had no right to blame Moqing's parents. In today's society, which parents would want their daughter to marry a man who had no car, no house and owed hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt?

He himself wouldn't want to do that either.

What's more, her parents no longer asked for a dowry or a car. They only asked for a down payment for a small apartment that was big enough for two people to live in. This was already more tolerant than countless Chinese parents.

If they can't do this, it's their family's problem. If they say anything else, they are just ungrateful.

"Mom, don't worry, there will be a house. Moqing is also your daughter-in-law, she can't run away." Qin Lin quickly finished the rice in the bowl, went back to his room, opened a cabinet, and placed a marriage certificate inside.

The man is Qin Lin and the woman is Zhao Moqing.

He told his mother that Mo Qing was his daughter-in-law not casually, but all this was kept secret from both parents.

When his girlfriend stole the household registration book from home to register with him and said that she was determined to be with him for the rest of her life, the warmth in his heart could really melt the entire Antarctic glacier.

He knew how courageous Mo Qing was, and he knew that he must never let her down in this life.

He also knew that registering with Moqing under such circumstances would be unfair to her and a deception to the Zhao family, but he was more afraid of losing the most precious thing in his life.

Just as he was thinking, there was movement in the game screen in Qin Lin's mind. He immediately put the marriage certificate away carefully, locked the drawer again, and then looked at the game screen in his mind.

The watermelons in those fields have already grown vines, and the watermelons will be ripe tomorrow morning. However, pests have also appeared on the vines, and they must be cleaned up, otherwise the growth rate and production quantity of the watermelons will be affected.

Qin Lin moved his mind and controlled the game character to take out a small net for cleaning pests and cleaned up the pests one by one.

After clearing all the pests from the watermelon vines, Qin Lin looked at other areas of the ranch.

The current 6 squares of land can produce 105 watermelons. The entire ranch has more than just 6 squares of land. If new land is developed, more watermelons can be planted.

In this Ranch Story game, there are a total of 100 grids of planting land on the ranch, but these lands are full of weeds, stones, wood, stakes... and other things, and crops cannot be planted.

Moreover, due to the level restrictions of the game characters, some areas are not open and appear gray.

The setting is that as long as the game character keeps planting, he can upgrade his level and open up new land. The player only needs to clear the weeds, stones... and other things, and use a hoe to plow the land to develop it.

Most importantly, as your character level increases, you can upgrade your land, grow more advanced crops, and even unlock new functions.

Seeing that there was still land that could be developed, Qin Lin began to control the game character to get tools from the tool room, and went to the developable land to deal with weeds, wood, and stones. Then he opened up 6 squares of land and planted watermelon seeds.

The watermelons in these 6 new plots should be ripe by noon tomorrow, which means more than 100 watermelons.

However, Qin Lin did not continue to develop new land. Instead, he used his mobile phone to go to the real estate agency website to look for warehouse rental information.

He was a cautious man. No matter where in the city he entered the game to get watermelons, if the quantity was large, he would likely be noticed. Even if he found a secluded place in the wild, he was afraid of being seen entering and leaving the game, which would be troublesome.

So we have to find a warehouse that is remote and has few people around.

In this way, you can lock the warehouse and hide inside to take out the watermelons without anyone noticing.

There were a lot of rental information on the agency website, and after searching for a long time, he finally found a suitable one.

The place is on the outskirts of Youcheng County. There used to be a pig farm that built a warehouse for collecting pig grass and built a separate road to get there. Normally, no one goes there.

But raising pigs has risks. The pig farm went bankrupt due to a swine fever, and now the warehouse is rented out. The rent is not expensive, 2,000 yuan a month, and the area is large, and no deposit is required. Unfortunately, the location is remote, and no one has rented it for a long time.

Qin Lin felt that this place was suitable for him.

…

the next day.

Qin Lin woke up early in the morning and looked at the game screen on the screen in his mind.

There are already ripe watermelons lying on the ground in the first 6 squares. You can directly control the game character to pick the watermelons, put them into the storage room, remove the dead vines, and plant the watermelon seeds again.

Vines and watermelon buds also grew on the newly opened 6 squares of land, but weeds and pests also grew on the 6 squares of land.

He immediately controlled the game character to clear the weeds and pests, then had a quick breakfast and went out to contact the owner of the rental warehouse and made an appointment to meet at the warehouse.

The warehouse is located more than 10 minutes' drive from the county town. It is in a very remote location and generally not many people come to such places.

The warehouse is well-preserved and has an open space for parking, so even large trucks can turn around without any problems.

This was originally used as parking for transporting pig feed to the pig farm.

The owner was a middle-aged man with a fat belly. After Qin Lin confirmed the information, he rented the house from him for three months.

As soon as the 6,000 yuan rent was gone, his bank card balance immediately dropped to the bottom, but he could earn the money back immediately.

After signing the contract, Qin Lin also added the other party on WeChat. If he wanted to renew the lease, he could just transfer the money via WeChat.

After that, the owner didn't stay long. He seemed to have received a call and was asked to play cards, so he took his contract and left.

Qin Lin opened the warehouse and walked in. It was empty inside, full of cobwebs and dust.

But he didn't have too many requirements for the environment. After a little cleaning, he took a few baskets from the three-wheeled truck and entered the warehouse, then locked the warehouse door from the inside.

After finishing it, he suddenly had an idea and took the basket into the game and put the watermelons in the game storage room into the basket.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, he appeared in the warehouse with a basket of watermelons.

The watermelons were moved out in several batches, with a total of 106 watermelons, all of which were large watermelons weighing more than 10 kilograms, and all of them were of quality 1.

After loading the watermelons onto the truck, he took a video of the truck full of watermelons and sent it to the fruit and vegetable store owner group, then sent another message:

"High sugar content, juicy and delicious seedless watermelon, wholesale price 1.5 yuan/jin, delivered to your door!"

As soon as the message was sent, Liu Dasheng appeared. "Xiao Qin, are you out picking up the goods so early? Your watermelons are really selling well. Everyone who tries them will buy them. You sold more than ten last night. Can you give me another 20?"

"Xiao Qin, give me 10 more too." Chen Dahe also showed up.

"I'll make up 20 more here." Aiquni also spoke.

"Okay, I'll send it to you three later." Qin Lin responded immediately.

It's normal that the watermelons produced in the game sell well. After all, the taste of each watermelon is the best among ordinary watermelons.

Several more fruit shop owners showed up in the WeChat group.

"Boss Qin, are you shipping these melons wholesale?"

"Boss Qin, these melons look good. Send me a batch too."

"I'll try to get 30 too."

“…”

Because Liu Dasheng and the other two were there to support them, and seeing that the three of them had been buying goods from Qin Lin continuously, these people didn't ask to see the goods and just let him deliver them to their door.

After all, they didn't get much in, so even if there was something fishy, there wouldn't be much loss, and if there wasn't anything fishy, it would save them some effort.

Qin Lin saw these messages and sent a reply: "I'm delivering melons to Brother Liu and his group now. If you need any, you can send me your address in a private message and I'll deliver to your door later."

After that, he put down his phone and took Xigua back to the county town.

When he returned to the market street, he first delivered the melons to Liu Dasheng, Chen Dahe and Ai Quni.

Liu Dasheng bought 20 melons, weighing 230 kilograms, for 345 yuan.

Chen Dahe’s 10 melons, 115 kilograms, cost 172.5 yuan.

20 melons of Aiquni, 245 kilograms, 367.5 yuan.

This adds up to another 885 yuan in the account.

After Qin Lin delivered the melons to Liu Dasheng and the other two, he took out his WeChat mobile phone and found that he had received 6 private messages from people who were interested in purchasing melons, but the quantities were not large and they were all small businesses.

After comprehensive statistics, 4 companies want 10 and 2 companies want 20.

Qin Lin still had 55 melons in his car. He planned to deliver them to two families who wanted 20 and one who wanted 10 first. Then he explained to the other three families that he would deliver them at noon.

These three fruit stores are quite far from the market street. One is next to the school and two are on the south street. 55 watermelons, totaling 632 kilograms, brought in another 948 yuan.

The batch of watermelons that ripened this morning brought in a total of 1,833 yuan.

The key is that another batch can be cooked at noon.

Thinking of this, Qin Lin was in a good mood. He drove his empty car back to his fruit and vegetable store. When he opened the roller shutter, he heard a dog barking.

It was the black dog that ran out from an alley opposite yesterday, and its target seemed to be his shop.

Qin Lin immediately glared at the black dog and scolded him.

Are you really going to rely on me?

The black dog not only did not run away after being scolded by him, but it even grinned, stuck out its tongue and ran even faster. In a blink of an eye, it was at the door of his shop. It ignored him and lay down, licking its paws.

This is so fucking...

Qin Lin simply ignored the black dog, sat back at the cashier counter, looked at the game on the screen in his mind, and watered the watermelons he had planted earlier.

At noon, Qin Lin received a prompt in his mind that the watermelons in the newly opened 6 grids were ripe. He immediately controlled the game character to pick them, then removed the watermelon vines and planted new watermelon seeds.

After that, he looked at the time and didn't plan to go home for dinner. He called his mother and rode his farm tricycle out of the city.

Arriving at the warehouse, he locked the door again, then entered the game and took out all the newly ripe watermelons.

There are 110 watermelons harvested in this batch, but they are all of quality 1.

After pulling the watermelons back to the county town, I first delivered them to the other three stores that had placed orders in the morning. Although there were only 10 watermelons per store, there were still 30 in total, weighing 321 kilograms, and I earned another 481.5 yuan.

From yesterday when I was able to enter the game until now, I have earned a total of 4017.5 yuan.

This money is earned just like picking it up.

When Qin Lin returned to his own fruit and vegetable shop, his stomach was rumbling. In a good mood, he ordered a takeout for himself, the kind with two eggs and two chicken legs, just to indulge himself.

Soon, the takeaway arrived and he began to eat it with relish.

The eggs and chicken legs are so delicious.

“Woo woo woo!”

While eating, a dog barked.

The black dog squatted at the door of the store and stared straight at his takeaway. When it saw him looking at it, it immediately grinned and stuck out its tongue in anticipation.

That look was exactly like flattery.

Qin Lin's face darkened. Was this dog really that lazy? And he even begged for food?

He resolutely ignored it and continued eating.

"Woo woo woo!" The black dog's barking became weaker, and it seemed to be lost. It drooped its head, and its eyes looked like a child who didn't get any candy and felt aggrieved.

"..." Qin Lin saw this and looked at the chicken leg with some meat still in his hand. He couldn't put it in his mouth, so he gritted his teeth and threw it towards the black dog.

Men always lose because they are too soft-hearted.

The black dog seemed to be prepared. It instantly raised its head and bit the chicken leg with its mouth wide open, then began to chew it happily.

"What a fucking face change!" Qin Lin suspected that he was being tricked by a dog, and thought about it, and quickly started eating.

After a big meal, he filmed a video of the remaining 80 watermelons and posted it in a group of fruit and vegetable store owners to promote it.

Afterwards, he looked at the light screen in his mind and began to control the game character to pick up tools to open up new land. Only by planting more watermelons could he sell them for more money.

There are still 12 squares of land that can be developed.

He first used a sickle to clear the weeds from the land, then used an axe to clear the wood, and finally used a hammer to deal with the stones, so that he could use a hoe to develop the 12 squares of land.

At this moment, he received a WeChat message on his phone: "Boss Qin, my name is Liu Ersheng, my brother is Liu Dasheng, he said your melons are good, can you send me 50?"

Qin Lin's eyes lit up.

A big customer.

When he saw the other party's note was next to Youcheng County No. 1 Middle School, he understood. Everyone knows where the most profitable place to open a small shop in Youcheng County is. Naturally, it is next to a school, especially next to the No. 1 Middle School which integrates elementary, junior high and high schools.

In this season, ice watermelon, transparent plastic cups and a few toothpicks are the most popular among students. Some students even eat one and take another to school.

Moreover, the profit from selling in this way can be much higher than selling normally.

Qin Lin sent a message back to the other party, took 30 melons from the car and put them in his own shop, and then sent the remaining 50 melons to Liu Ersheng.

The 50 melons weighed a total of 575 kilograms, and the revenue was 862 yuan.

After returning to his fruit and vegetable store, Qin Lin immediately looked at the game screen on the screen in his mind, took out a hoe and developed all the 12 squares of land that he had cleared before.

In just one day, I earned nearly 5,000. This game is how I got rich.
