55 Chapter 55. The old man
The street is the same as the outside, but obviously the people in this place live a better life, and none of the people who come and go wear patched clothes.

Su Yao followed He Chunli, and stopped at a grocery store: "The boss here is a strange person, he will accept things from outside, no matter what, as long as it is valuable, he will accept it. Naturally, the things in this store are also varied. , as long as you can afford it, you can sell whatever you have in the shop."

Su Yao nodded numbly, and walked into the store.

It looks old and small from the outside, but I didn't expect that there is another world inside. This shop is bigger than the supply and marketing cooperative in the town. No matter what Chunli said, it really has everything.

He Chunli pointed Su Yao in the direction and asked her to find what she wanted, while she started talking with the boss.

Su Yao found the seeds in a corner, and there was no other identification on the entire package except for the handwritten word "Seed".

Su Yao packed all the seeds into bags.

Looking back to see that no one was watching him, with a thought, he took out a slap-sized package of food from the space.

Holding the seeds, Su Yao found the boss.

He Chunli and the boss also stopped the discussion at the right time: "You want this? You really got involved with the seeds."

When the boss heard this, his eyes fell on Su Yao's hand.

Su Yao smiled, and asked the boss politely: "Boss, how do you sell this seed?"

The boss didn't answer right away.

The seeds were not from his own store, but a strange old man consigned them. Because he took up the space in the store, he was given a sum of money every month, so he just threw it in the corner.

When the old man sold it on consignment, there was only one condition.If someone buys it, you can't sell it directly, you have to take someone to find him, and leave an address.

The boss thought there was something magical about this kind of seed before, so he tried to grow a bunch of it himself, and the things that grew out were no different from ordinary crops.

Since then, the seeds are still crowded with dust in the corner, and no one cares about them, and the strange old man never came again.

Looking up and down, I can see that Su Yao is just an ordinary family. If it weren't for He Chunli's guidance, he wouldn't even have the qualifications for this street.

With so many things in the store, she just wanted the seeds.And from He Chunli's words, she should have searched for a lot of places for seeds.

The boss couldn't figure out what attracted the seeds to Su Yao, and in the end it could only be attributed to ignorance.

Seeing that the boss didn't say a word, Su Yao asked cautiously, "Is this kind of seed expensive? Is it a magical seed?"

The boss came back to his senses: "No, this kind of seed is a bit special. Someone put it on consignment for me. I don't have the right to set the price. If you really want it, you still have to find the seller."

Su Yao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he would run out of time due to the busy spring planting, and asked, "Where is the seller? Is it convenient to meet today? I want to buy it today."

"Okay, yes." The boss also wanted to find out what's tricky in this simple seed, so he readily agreed.

Calling his daughter-in-law to come out to help watch the spot, the boss led Su Yao and He Chunli into the residential area behind, stopped at the door of a small courtyard, and knocked on the door three times.

There was a sound of crutches, and then the door opened and an old man appeared, with white hair and a long beard, making it hard to see his real appearance.

It seemed that he was the owner of a grocery store, and there were two strangers following behind him. The old man stroked his beard and said, "Someone bought my things?"

"I bought it." The boss stepped sideways: "This little girl bought it."

The old man nodded clearly: "You come in with me, and the others go."

The boss came here just to know the details of that packet of seeds, so naturally he wouldn't be dismissed with a single word.And Su Yao was brought here by He Chunli, and many people saw it, so naturally they had to ensure Su Yao's safety.

The two stood still, and it was not easy for Su Yao to follow the old man into the door, so the three stalemate at the door.

The old man asked, "Is there anything else?"

The boss didn't mince words: "You have been consigning in my store for so long, and you still make such excessive demands. I'm curious about these packets of seeds, so it's not too much."

The old man chuckled: "Have you ever tried to grow this kind of seed? It's just an ordinary seed. If you are too curious, you will die."

Seeing that the boss still didn't believe it, the old man added another sentence: "I just want to find someone who can farm the land to help me plant the land."

This reason is not bad. Those who can buy seeds are sure to know how to farm, but why a lonely old man insists on farming, the boss doesn't understand, but he doesn't struggle anymore.

Looking at He Chunli again, the old man asked, "What else do you need?"

He Chunli pointed to Su Yao: "I brought people in, and I want to bring them back."

Seeing that Su Yao was standing next to He Chunli, the old man assured him: "The one who came in is guarded by my apprentice, you just go and wait, if the person doesn't go out, you can ask her for it."

Whether it is the old man's apprentice, He Chunli still has to ask that person, leaving Su Yao alone is not at ease.

Su Yao looked at the old man, feeling a little curious in his heart, as the saying goes, starve to death the timid and starve to death.

Impulsive in my heart, I blurted out: "Sister, you go back and wait for me. I will talk to the old man about the price, and I will go to you after buying it."

He Chunli hesitated again and again, and followed the boss away.

He Chunli and the two walked away before Su Yao was brought into the yard.

In the small yard, except for two paths for workers to walk, the rest of the place is full of various plants, and Su Yao can hardly be named.

After entering the house, the old man looked at Su Yao's package and said bluntly, "Take out the contents."

Su Yao took out the seeds she got from the grocery store one by one: "This is what I want to buy, old man, please give me a price."

The old man didn't answer, but continued to ask Su Yao to dig out something.

Apart from these, there was only the bag of seeds that he took out from the space. Su Yao didn't know how the old man saw it, so he hesitated and put it on the table.

When the small bag of grain was taken out, the old man's eyes lit up. He took it away, put it under his nose, and asked him carefully, but he still had a lot to say.

"Where did you come from?" the old man asked, clutching the cloth bag tightly.

Su Yao realized that the matter was not simple, and said foolishly, "I planted it myself."

The old man didn't ask: "If I give you the seeds, can you grow something like this?"

"What kind of seed grows what kind of thing, how can it be exactly the same?" Su Yao felt that the old man was a little out of his mind, he didn't understand such a simple truth, and his tone was a little impatient.

The old man was not angry either: "No, I mean the kind with aura, can everything you plant have aura?"
