When the female supporting role has a beauty system

Chapter 1265 Farm Owner 18
As for who was coming, Tan You didn't care. After confirming the location of the pigsty, Tan You returned to the courtyard to prepare lunch. Since they were already there, she wanted to treat everyone well.

With so many people, let's have steamed buns for lunch, pumpkin steamed buns, no less. As for vegetables, there are dried green beans in the pantry; let's make a stew with dried green beans and rabbit. There's also lettuce; a lettuce salad would be nice too.

Tan You happily finalized the menu and prepared to go to the storage room to get the pumpkin and dried green beans. She knew that her work meals were always good, since many people didn't even have enough to eat, but when someone came to work, Tan You always had at least one meat dish.

Although it's all rabbit meat, considering the rabbits that are almost overpopulated on the farm, Tan You still decided to eat it!
These are the rabbit pelts. Tan You was pondering this when Minister Huang's voice rang out from outside: "The forest owner?"

"Come in," Tan You called out, "The protective shield isn't on."

Minister Huang and Jin Xi each carried a small basket containing about five pounds of strawberries. Tan You glanced at them: "Something wrong?"

Minister Huang chuckled, "Could you share some of your Tranquilizing Apples with us? I'll trade you ten level-four wood-type crystal cores, okay?"

Tan You raised an eyebrow: "Didn't I give you ten pounds before?"

Minister Huang complained, "How could that be possible? Our soldiers on missions all have very high pollution levels. They need these high-grade foods to nourish them. Your ten pounds of apples won't last long."

This is something he figured out by trial and error. Tan You seems to have a filter-like halo around the soldiers. Whenever he complains about the soldiers' hardships, Tan You basically won't say anything more.

Sure enough, Tan You's expression softened. She hesitated for a moment: "You know that the apple tree isn't mine. It's a resident of my farm. If I want apples, I have to trade my superpower for them."

Minister Huang nodded repeatedly: "I know, I know, Mr. Forestry Manager, please help me..."

Tan You put down the dried green beans: "Alright, then come with me. It's winter now, and it needs to rest and recuperate."

Minister Huang wondered how the mutated plants could possibly recover. Every single one of them was ferocious. Even Tan You was weak when all these mutated plants were vulnerable.

Jin Xi silently followed Tan You to the area where the apple tree was located. Tan You picked up the small box containing ten wood-type crystal cores and threw a ball of energy over, seemingly to awaken the apple tree.

Two branches of the apple tree drooped down and embraced Tan You's arms, just like a little child clinging to an adult's arm and acting cute.

Tan You stroked its branches: "Minister Huang gave me ten crystal cores. If I use these and cultivate for a while longer, I should be able to upgrade to level five before the end of the year."

The apple tree branch twitched. Now that it's at level five, will it be able to avoid pollution like the cherry tree?
Tan You: "He wants your fruit."

How many kilograms do you want?

Minister Huang quickly replied, "At least one hundred catties."

Tan You turned to the apple tree: "Do you agree to this deal?"

Several branches drooped down from the apple tree, all laden with bright red apples; a rough count suggested they were almost full. Tan You hugged the trunk of the apple tree and assured it, "I'll upgrade as soon as possible; I'll have to trouble you to wait for me a little longer."

As she spoke, Tan You began picking apples. Only she could do this job; Minister Huang and Jin Xi couldn't even get close to the apple trees' territory, so they could only watch from the outside.

The original owner of this body was less than 1.5 meters tall, while the shortest branches of the apple tree were already two meters high. Luckily, Tan You had a small wooden ladder, so she straddled it, picked an apple, and tossed it to Minister Huang. Minister Huang caught the apple with an agility beyond his years and carefully placed it in his basket. Jin Xi stood to the side, watching with interest. As he watched, his gaze gradually drifted to another large tree in the courtyard.

Two kinds of fruit grew on a large tree. One was bright red, and for some reason, Jin Xi felt a sense of danger. The other… Jin Xi's pupils contracted; wasn't this the orange-cherry he had seen before?

I thought Tan You had just gotten the cherry tree by chance, but I didn't expect that the cherry tree was planted in her yard. As a result, she didn't say a word about it.

Jin Xi subconsciously walked towards the cherry tree. Before he got close, he saw a branch laden with red cherries lash out at him. Jin Xi nimbly took a step back, and the cherry branch stopped.

Jin Xi narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Tan You: "Master Lin, are these cherries edible?"

Tan You glanced at it and said, "No, this is a cherry bomb. You can test it if you don't believe me."

Jin Xi did as instructed, took out his terminal, and after testing the red cherry, he raised an eyebrow: "It really is a bomb?"

“Yes, orange cherries are edible, but they have a bit of a temper.” Tan You called out, “Don’t go near the cherry tree, I don’t want the yard to be full of blossoms.”

Jin Xi obeyed and stopped approaching the cherry tree, but he still subconsciously checked it. When he saw that the pollution index of the cherry tree was only 0, Jin Xi was shocked: "Pollution index 0?"

"Are there also uncontaminated exotic plants?"

Tan You was surprised by their surprise: "No?"

“No,” Jin Xi said definitively, “Wood-type ability users can indeed purify the pollution index of exotic plants, but they can only bring the number infinitely close to zero, not completely eradicate it, and it will rise again later.”

While picking apples, Tan You said, "I know this. It's not difficult to do, right? When you have enough supernatural power, purify the alien plant. After completely removing the pollution from the alien plant, wrap the center of the alien plant with supernatural power to form a protective barrier. Then, reinforce the barrier from time to time. In this way, the alien plant can be protected from external pollution."

Minister Huang sensed something amiss: "But completely eliminating the pollution index... is very difficult."

“That’s because they didn’t push themselves to the limit,” Tan You shrugged. “When I was removing the pollution from this little guy, the last part was really difficult, and it drained all the superpowers in my body.”

"Try it more, you can definitely do it."

Minister Huang has made up his mind: "I'll go back and find someone to try it. If there really are pollution-free ingredients, that would be wonderful."

Tan You tossed an apple to Minister Huang: "That's your problem. I think it's related to the level of the ability user. For example, I can only completely purify plants below level four right now, and the apple tree has been giving me a lot of trouble because of that."

As she spoke, she patted the trunk of the apple tree. A branch reached over and poked Tan You's face, and Tan You took the opportunity to rub against it: "I will try my best to completely purify you as soon as possible."

Jin Xi looked up at Tan You, who was hugging an apple tree and talking, and suddenly felt that today's trip to the farm was really worthwhile. Not only did they get the Tranquil Apples, but they also received such important news.

No one expected that covering the exotic plant with an energy barrier would result in him seeing it here.
