Post-apocalyptic game: I survive at sea by scavenging for trash.

Lin Zhaoyin didn't rush to tell Qin Feng this information, since his pet egg wouldn't hatch until tomorrow night. They still had some time to confirm their speculations.

Lin Wanyi simply opened her sister's bronze treasure chest. Now, apart from those attribute stones, Lin Zhaoyin didn't really want anything else.

However, Lin Wanyi had tried making wishes to open stones before, but she could usually only get one stone, and the attributes she got were not necessarily what they needed at the moment.

If we rely on opening treasure chests to get these stones, who knows when we'll be able to get them.

So after trying a few times, Lin Wanyi stopped making wishes and just opened the boxes as fate would have it.

"Sis, this is good stuff!"

Lin Zhaoyin clicked to collect the package and glanced at the unboxing results; they were indeed quite good.

A lucky card increases luck by 1 point. Lin Zhaoyin's luck was already beyond saving, so it was given directly to Zhou Shiyun.

After using the card, Zhou Shiyun's luck stat reached 8 points. This is a very high value among players, considering that only a handful, like Lin Wanyi and Qin Feng, have a maximum luck stat.

Lin Zhaoyin's favorite item was another one: a seed gift pack containing corn seeds, cabbage seeds, and celery seeds.

The seeds were all good seeds, especially the cabbage and celery, which Lin Zhaoyin hadn't eaten in a long time.

But how to plant it is a big problem.

This is a game world, where things like soil and temperature don't matter. But whether the seeds are planted once or will keep growing new crops is a question.

Lin Zhaoyin was considering whether to try each plant individually or consult a professional. However, games and reality differ, and Lin Zhaoyin was also worried that the results of her consultation might not match those in the game.

Just as Lin Zhaoyin was pondering, Jiang Jiang's message arrived.

[Yinyin, I promised you yesterday that I'd give you something delicious today. I got some milk tea today, so I'm giving it to you!]

When Lin Zhaoyin saw the milk tea, her eyes widened. What a wonderful day it was!

"Sister Jiang, how about we share it? There are four of us, so each of us can just have a little to taste."

Jiang Jiang didn't pry into Lin Zhaoyin's affairs, nor did she ask why there were four people in Lin Zhaoyin's group. Everyone has their own privacy, and it would be impolite for her to ask too many questions.

I don't really like sweet drinks anyway, so just take it and share it with yourself, no need to charge me.

Lin Zhaoyin didn't think much of it; it wouldn't make much difference whether it was shared among three or four people, so she guessed that Lin Zhaoyin really didn't like drinking it.

Thank you, Sister Jiang. Then I won't be polite.

Lin Zhaoyin asked her sister to send over a cup, and then divided the milk tea into three portions, including the toppings.

This is a very ordinary bubble tea. The only difference is that it's fully sweetened.

Lin Zhaoyin took a small sip and quickly added water; it was just too sweet.

While sipping her milk tea, Lin Zhaoyin was still reading the messages Jiang Jiang had sent her. Not only her, but also the friends she had added in the past two days had sent her messages.

Everyone had the same reason: they came to tell Lin Zhaoyin the good news that their mangosteen trees had ripened and they had harvested their first batch of fruit.

Everyone received 10 mangosteens, which means everyone will receive an extra 10 points of defense.

Lin Zhaoyin also mentioned that fruit trees have a dormant period, and after this batch is picked, it will take another 5 days before they start bearing fruit again. Of course, even if Lin Zhaoyin didn't say this, everyone would have found out tomorrow.

Lin Zhaoyin didn't talk much with the other players; she felt more comfortable with Jiang Jiang.

But while chatting, I discovered the person I had been looking for all along.

Ding Chengxi, a male college student, and a male college student at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences!

Lin Zhaoyin knew his background because of his feelings.

[Games are so much better! As long as you plant something, you're guaranteed to reap a harvest. As a poor agricultural student, I really wish real life were like that; how wonderful that would be!]

Are you an agricultural student? Do you know anything about growing crops?

[What does the expert want to know? I'm an agricultural science student, after all, so I'll do my best to answer your question!]

I just got some seeds for common crops. Could you tell me about them? I don't know if these crops can be harvested repeatedly or if they can be planted only once. They are corn, cabbage, and celery.

Ding Chengxi didn't dare to answer carelessly. He was an agricultural student, but there was still a gap between games and reality.

I'm not entirely sure what I'm saying is 100% accurate, but I've obtained some crop seeds myself and summarized some patterns. I happen to have some corn, which is a one-time planting crop. Corn won't grow again after harvesting. You need to clean up the corn stalks yourself; you can keep them to make some tools.

However, corn itself is a seed. You can save one ear of corn each time as seed, hang it outdoors, and once it dries out, remove the kernels and plant it in the ground to grow another crop.

As for cabbage and celery, in real life, cabbage can be harvested seven or eight times from a single planting, and celery can be harvested about three times. However, things are a bit different in the game world. I've noticed a pattern: any crop that can be harvested multiple times in real life can be harvested infinitely here. However, the intervals between harvests seem to be different for each type of vegetable.

After listening, Lin Zhaoyin felt that she had really found the right person. Ding Chengxi not only knew about plants and crops, but also happened to have planting experience in the game.

So it seems that I can just buy two more plots of land to grow cabbage and celery. As for corn, I can alternate with potatoes, so that the plot of land originally used for potatoes will not have a downtime.

Lin Zhaoyin suddenly remembered that she had some unsprouted seeds and some magical fruits that she didn't know if they could be planted, so she decided to ask Ding Chengxi about them as well.

However, Lin Zhaoyin still held back and did not mention the magical fruit. She only asked if there was a way to extract the seeds if she obtained vegetables and fruits from the treasure chest.

There are only 10 varieties of the magical fruit. Bananas and oranges only have peels, so Lin Zhaoyin thought they probably couldn't be grown. She only asked about cherries, carrots, and cucumbers.

Lin Zhaoyin had previously guessed that carrots would be similar to potatoes, but the amazing effect of carrots in stopping bleeding and restoring blood made her hesitant to try them, fearing that failure would be a waste.

Now that Zhou Shiyun is here, she hasn't thought much about planting anymore. However, since she's implementing a company-wide planting plan, carrots are also very important.

Fortunately, Lin Zhaoyin did not try it lightly. Ding Chengxi told her that she only needed to cut off a small part of the carrot with leaves for hydroponics.

But the amazing thing is that carrots don't have carrot tops, so they are destined to be impossible to grow.

The bad news didn't stop there. Cucumbers can be grown, but only mature cucumbers can; seeds from tender, green cucumbers won't grow into cucumbers.

And the amazing thing about this fruit is that it never gets old!

Cucumbers that never age are destined to be uncultivable!

Cherries are Lin Zhaoyin's last hope!
