I CAN ENTER THE GAME

by Kideo11

Qin Lin was playing a nostalgic game called "Ranches Story" when he was electrocuted. He suddenly discovered that he had the ability to enter into the game. He could even bring a watermelon he had planted in the game back to reality. At first, his plan was to sell watermelon for 2 yuan a catty. In that case, he could earn 20,000 yuan by planting 10,000 catties worth of watermelon

3. Chapter 201 - 300

Chapter 201

[Congratulations on obtaining an ordinary rosewood!]

[Congratulations on obtaining an ordinary rosewood!]

[Congratulations on obtaining Quality 1 rosewood!]

[Congratulations on obtaining Quality 2 rosewood!]

[Congratulations on obtaining Quality 2 rosewood!]

In some game terms, that was a big hit, wasn't it?

Qin Lin immediately became motivated and controlled the game to continue searching for trees.

Today's discovery of trees revealed several new species: willow, rubber, fir, and so on.

Moreover, the yew appeared stubbornly. Seeing how stubborn it was, Qin Lin reluctantly picked up the materials after cutting it down. He would go back and sell them in the game!

However, the rosewood did not appear again.

This also showed that the trees that could be cut down were also very random. The refreshed trees were also different.

Seeing that there were no more trees to cut on Mount Notre Dame, Qin Lin locked the office door. With a thought, he entered the game and saw the information about the quality of the rosewood.

[Chinese Rosewood: Quality 2]

...

[This is a special kind of wood cut from a rosewood tree: fragrance reduction +2, wood hardness +2, texture perception +2, insect repellent +2.]

Then, he looked at the growth rings.

"321 growth rings?"

Qin Lin was really shocked this time.

This Quality 2 rosewood was directly more than 100 years old? This year was also very rare on the market.

And what was the price of a 100-year-old rosewood?

It was really not mentioned in the news that Qin Lin had seen. He was not sure either, so he could only log out of the game again and search online immediately.

However, the information they found was varied. Some said that the 100-year-old rosewood was 10,000 yuan per catty, some said 15,000 yuan per catty, and some said 20,000 yuan per catty.

This was a price difference based on the diameter, hardness, and texture of the white wood removed.

His game was enhanced by attributes, so it shouldn't be a problem to sell it for 20,000 yuan at the most expensive price, right?

Just as Qin Lin was thinking about it, he received a message on WeChat. It was from Chen Shengfei, the blueprint for the signature template.

"Boss Qin, it's done." Chen Shengfei also sent a message.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Chen had taken care of everything yesterday.

The first design had the words "Qinglin Villa" written on it. It was written by Master Chen Fengwu.

When he saw the words 'Qinglin Villa', Qin Lin's eyes lit up. Even if he didn't know calligraphy, he still felt that it was written really well.

The brush strokes were round and full of energy, reminding him of a poem that praised the calligraphy of a brush. "The dew is full of spring, and the clouds are falling!"

This was a true master painter. There was a huge difference between him and a certain master who could do it.

In addition to the signboard template, there was also a 'Qinglin Brewery' signboard.

The words were still perfect and highly appreciated.

Without hesitation, Qin Lin downloaded the blueprint and printed out the blueprint template before bringing it into the game.

Then, he immediately logged out of the game and controlled the game character to bring the blueprint and Quality 2 rosewood to the machine experience hall.

Soon, two signboards for Qinglin Villa were built, as well as one for Qinglin Liquor Factory. This one was made from a Quality 1 rosewood material.

After all, there weren't many people who saw it at the winery, so he didn't need it to be of high quality.

When Qin Lin entered the game again and saw the three branded items, he was very satisfied.

Especially when he saw the words 'Qinglin Villa', he could feel an atmosphere and an inexplicable attraction without looking at the attached information.

The words did not have any signs of being processed at all. In fact, they were even more lively than Master Chen Fengwu's handwriting on the template.

This was unbelievable.

Usually, no matter how well a master wrote, it would seem a little rigid after being processed into a plaque.

His signboard was even more lively than what the master had originally written. Even Master Chen Fengwu would be shocked to see it, right?

Qin Lin went forward and picked up one of the signs. The 100-year-old rosewood was denser and heavier. This sign weighed about 20 catties.

Then he calculated and was shocked himself. Wasn't the price of this sign 400,000 to 500,000 yuan?

This wouldn't be stolen if it was hung outside the villa, would it?

When the time came, they would probably have to get a camera and send security guards to watch the signboard. Moreover, if this price was known, it would probably cause a sensation.

Which scenic spot's sign could be worth hundreds of thousands?

With the master's inscription, perhaps many stories would be made up about the rosewood signs.

At that time, it might even become a famous scenic spot. When the tourists arrived at Qinglin Villa, they would probably stop, look up, and take photos.

Chapter 202

Qin Lin also saw the information on the sign.

[Qinglin Villa Rosewood Sign: Quality 2]

[This is an advanced signboard made from rosewood: Fragrance Reduction +2, Wood Hardness +2, Texture Perception +2, Insect Repellent +2, Attraction +2, Artistic Aura +2!]

The note on this signboard was clearly a little different from Quality 1. There was also the word 'advanced'.

Moreover, there was also the attraction +2 attribute. This was similar to the attraction +2 attribute of the Quality 2 triangular plum.

In addition, there was an additional attribute of artistic aura +2.

This might have something to do with the signature template design and Master Chen Fengwu's superb calligraphy. After being upgraded by the system, the signature words were even more agile than Master Chen Fengwu's own.

These would undoubtedly greatly increase the value of the entire sign.

Therefore, the actual value of this sign board should exceed the previous calculations.

Qin Lin was still very satisfied with the Quality 2 and Quality 1 rosewood signs.

As for the rest of the wood and yew, either they couldn't be taken outside or they wouldn't be worth much even if he worked hard to get them out. He could just sell them in the game!

Two of the three processors in the experience hall had already been used. All that was left was the thread processor.

Ordinary men were definitely not interested in silk threads, but if silk threads could be processed into silk stockings, underwear, and so on, it would be different.

...

Qin Lin was curious about the attributes of the Quality 1 and 2 stockings.

Rip-resistant?

Elasticity?

Unfortunately, he didn't have the raw materials to produce the finished product, nor did he have the chance to try it on Zhao Moqing.

Qin Lin exited the game and planned to go to the warehouse to move all the signs out. Then, he would leave them in the warehouse for a few days before transporting them to the villa.

Chen Shengfei had just sent the template blueprint over, so he definitely couldn't take it out immediately. Even a fool would know that the time didn't match.

So he would have to wait a few days.

But if he waited in the game for a few days, a day would be half a year. Then the time wouldn't match.

Qin Lin opened the office door and saw a finance lady leading Master Zhang to Zhao Moqing's office.

"Boss?" Master Zhang greeted Qin Lin with a warm face.

He was in a very good mood.

Because the winery was really saved.

He knew that it would be different if someone like the new boss, who knew about alcohol, took over the winery.

It wasn't as if they'd given him and his old buddies a raise as soon as they took over the brewery. They'd even made him start recruiting apprentices. The lifeless brewery was about to come to life again.

The finance lady also reported respectfully to Qin Lin, "Boss, the lady boss asked Master Zhang to come over. We have to find the raw materials of the winery again and then our finance department will calculate the price."

Qin Lin nodded.

The original winery had been messed up by the officials that Master Zhang had mentioned. Naturally, he could not use those inferior raw materials and had to find new ones.

It was all thanks to Zhao Moqing, his good wife, that he was able to handle all these troublesome matters.

Master Zhang suddenly said in embarrassment, "Boss, can I choose the raw materials personally?"

"Alright, when the time comes, the finance department will cooperate with you. There's no need to be afraid of the price. I only want high-quality materials." Qin Lin nodded. No one knew better than Master Zhang about winemaking.

Moreover, after the incident in the cellar and the aged wine, there was no reason not to trust Master Zhang. There were some things that he should let go of. Holding on to them would only tire him out.

"Thank you, Boss." Master Zhang immediately promised enthusiastically, "The winery will definitely produce a batch of new wine as soon as possible. The quality will definitely not disappoint you."

Qin Lin naturally believed in Master Zhang. Moreover, with the 60 years of wine brewing in the wine cellar, at least the fragrance of the new wine could be guaranteed. If he brewed it with good raw materials and matched the taste, the new wine would definitely be good.

Qin Lin left the villa and went to buy some silk before heading to the warehouse. He moved the three signs out of the game and wrapped them in silk.

After doing this, Qin Lin received a call from Li Qing.

His face lit up and he immediately picked up the call. Li Qing's voice came through. "Boss Qin, I've brought Uncle here. He's already in the parking lot of your villa."

"Mr. Li, I'm outside now. I'll go back immediately." Qin Lin was waiting for Li Qing's uncle to come and save him.

When he arrived at the villa in the morning, he went to the greenhouse in the backyard to take a look at the watermelon vines. His condition still did not improve. Instead, there were more withered leaves.

He could not do anything about this situation and could only rely on Li Qing's help.

…

In the original parking lot of Qinglin Villa.

Li Qing hung up and said to the man beside him, "Uncle, let's go in first!"

Although Li Kai was Li Qing's uncle, he was only a few years older than Li Qing.

This was not uncommon. Nowadays, many uncles are a dozen years younger than their nephews.

"Li Qing, I hope you're not lying to me. Otherwise, I'll cut ties with you." Li Kai followed behind Li Qing unhappily.

Was it easy for him?

After several years of low-temperature genetic experiments on crops, there had been no new progress in the past few months. He was so frustrated that he didn't even want to go home from the research institute.

Who knew that the bully's call would force him to take a vacation? Now, he had no choice but to follow his nephew here to help Boss Qin resolve the watermelon seed problem.

Inwardly, he refused.

He didn't even want to come if he hadn't drunk the Qinglin Medicine Wine.

If he helped Boss Qin resolve the problem and his nephew couldn't get him a bottle of Qinglin Medicine Wine as promised, he would definitely cut ties with him.

Chapter 203

Li Qing ignored his uncle's complaint.

He still had three bottles of silver-grade Qinglin Wine.

Besides, after helping Boss Qin solve the problem, Boss Qin was happy. It was definitely not a problem to beg for two bottles of Qinglin Medicine Wine.

When they reached the original hall, Li Qing said, "Uncle, do you want to go to the greenhouse to see the watermelons first? They're in the backyard."

"Go on, get it over with and get back." There was no way Li Kai was going to refuse. He couldn't wait to solve the problem here and get back to his low-temperature crop genetic experiments.

They entered the backyard. The first thing they saw was a paddy field, a large shed, and a small watermelon field. There were still some watermelons left unplucked.

The paddy field was too empty for him to care.

When Li Kai looked at the watermelon field, he was stunned. He ran over in disbelief. "Are you kidding me? You plant watermelons out here in the middle of winter and they grow so well?"

Li Qing explained with a smile, "This is a kind of genetically mutated melon that Boss Qin discovered. Not only can it grow very well in winter, but it also tastes better than ordinary watermelons. However, this is the second generation. The taste is a little worse. The taste of the first generation is amazing. Unfortunately, there aren't many left. By the way, the seeds that have problems are in the greenhouse. I heard from Boss Qin that those are dead, so these melons are extinct."

Li Kai's hand trembled as he touched the watermelon. It was exciting. The low-temperature experiment he was studying was about this kind of crop's low-temperature off-season growth.

He wanted to work out that this off-season crop could be planted in winter without relying on the marquee.

This topic was a little difficult. Perhaps he would have to devote his entire life to it. If he could research it, he would have no problem winning a science award.

He had been studying it for a few years. Although he had published a few papers and received some feedback, he had never been able to make a big breakthrough.

...

Now he saw something. A finished, low-temperature, off-season crop.

Since this watermelon could be grown off-season in winter, there must be elements in its genes that could adapt to low temperatures.

For him, this was putting a treasure directly in front of him.

Hearing that the watermelons might be going extinct, Li Kai asked Li Qing with a vexed expression, "You knew that there were such watermelons here? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Li Qing looked at his uncle who was suddenly a little agitated and said in surprise, "Uncle, what's wrong with you? You didn't ask. As soon as I told you about the watermelon seeds, you became frustrated and resisted."

Li Kai was even more chagrined. "If you told me you could plant watermelons in the winter without the greenhouse, would I resist?"

Li Qing felt speechless. "Uncle, be reasonable. Who told me to shut up?"

"Will you shut up if I tell you to? Why are you so opinionated? You have to tell me!" Li Kai completely disagreed with Li Qing and said angrily, "Get out. Don't disturb me. I want to spend some time with this melon."

"…" Li Qing felt that there was no place to say anything. He left the backyard in embarrassment and returned to the hall.

Seeing that his uncle was interested in this watermelon, he was relieved. At least he didn't have to worry about his uncle not paying attention to Boss Qin.

…

Qin Lin also returned to the villa as quickly as possible.

When he arrived at the original hall, he saw the unhappy Li Qing. "Mr. Li, what's wrong? Who made you angry?"

"An unreasonable guy." Li Qing looked helpless. Then he pointed in the direction of the backyard and said, "My uncle is inside. He seems very interested in your watermelon."

He was already getting up and walking toward the backyard.

Qin Lin also entered the backyard immediately and saw a man pulling out vines from the greenhouse and throwing them out.

Seeing this, Li Qing hurriedly introduced, "Boss Qin, this is my uncle, Li Kai."

Li Kai also saw Qin Lin and asked, "Are you the owner of this villa? Did you cultivate these watermelon vines?"

Qin Lin knew Li Kai's identity and nodded. "I was just messing around. Sorry about that."

Li Kai snorted. "It's nonsense. How did something good end up in your hands? Why didn't you ask Li Qing to tell me earlier if you didn't know how to do it?"

"Uh!" Qin Lin didn't know how to answer.

Previously, he did not know that Li Qing had an uncle who did agricultural research, nor did he know that there would be problems if he messed around. Before there were problems, he still thought that he could succeed.

Li Qing hurriedly said, "Boss Qin, don't mind him. Sometimes, my uncle has a mental problem that makes people want to hit him."

Li Kai glared at Li Qing. "Li Qing, please watch your words. I'm your elder. You can't retaliate when I hit you."

"…" Li Qing had a new understanding of his uncle's shamelessness today. Why didn't he realize it before? He simply snorted and stopped talking.

Qin Lin listened to the conversation between the uncle and nephew. Although they were mocking each other, he could tell that the two of them were really close.

He also smiled at Li Kai and said, "Mr. Li, if I had known that you were an expert in this area, I would have definitely asked Li Qing to invite you over. I wonder what went wrong now? The steps I took to nurture the seeds were all according to the books."

"This book?" Li Kai took out a book from one of the shelves in the greenhouse and asked Qin Lin.

"Yes, it's this one." Qin Lin nodded. This was the book he had tried to find out if there was a problem with it.

Li Kai, on the other hand, was very disdainful. "Wang Dafeng, how dare this kind of guy make up books? Do you dare to read what he dares to write? His book is about cultivation of specific ordinary seedless watermelon seeds. Many varieties of melon will go wrong if they do as he says."

Chapter 204

"The key is that this kind of guy has yet to remind the readers in the book. If this watermelon seed goes extinct and affects my research, I will definitely post on the forum to criticize him for misleading the children."

"…" Qin Lin.

At this moment, Li Kai handed the watermelon vine that he had pulled out to Qin Lin and said, "Do you see that? The two roots are entangled together. Genetic mutation species and ordinary species usually have an invasive relationship. This will happen when the roots are intertwined."

Qin Lin could not understand what Li Kai meant by exploiting their relationship. He could only be confused.

This time, Li Kai could tell that Qin Lin didn't understand, so he said bluntly, "It's just that you planted it too close. The distance between ordinary species is still alright, but yours has to be further away, so I pulled out some of the vines between your two species. This way, there's enough distance between them. We'll see what happens in the next two days."

Qin Lin had to admit that a professional was different. He could tell that there was a problem with this, but he still asked curiously, "Mr. Li, this distance has increased and is beyond the pollination distance. What should we do?"

Li Kai frowned and asked, "Haven't you ever been to junior high school? Don't you understand this basic biological principle?"

"Uh!" Of course, Qin Lin had been to junior high school, but he was stunned by the question.

How could he remember what he had learned in junior high? He had forgotten all about high school. Now that he had been out in society for more than a year, he had started to forget about college, okay?

Li Kai shook his head and said, "Catch some flying insects, like bees. If you really can't do it, I'll pollinate it one by one by hand. How simple is that?"

"…" Qin Lin seemed to know why Li Qing looked so helpless now. This was really a f*cking blow. It was so simple for a professional like him, but he had never come into contact with it before.

Li Kai didn't waste any more time talking. He started moving around the shed again, pulling out a lot of watermelon vines and throwing them outside.

In an instant, the two types of watermelon vines that Qin Lin had planted previously became a little sparse.

...

"Okay, that's about it for now." Li Qing patted the dirt from his hands. "Depends on the growth. If nothing goes wrong, both kinds of melons will bloom and pollinate. The timing is pretty accurate."

Li Qing smiled and said, "In order to calculate the time, I specially kept an eye on it. This kind of watermelon grows twice as fast as normal melons!"

"Twice…" Li Kai opened his mouth in surprise when he heard this. He had guessed that the growth cycle after the mutation of the melon genes would be different, but he really did not expect it to be twice as fast.

He knew for a fact that some old guy was doing experiments on the shortened growth cycle of watermelons. It had taken that guy a long time to shorten the growth cycle of watermelons just a little.

But now, this watermelon seed that he had accidentally obtained could grow twice as fast. If that old fellow found out, he would probably vomit blood.

This was fate!

As Li Kai thought about it, he suddenly said to Qin Lin in embarrassment, "Boss Qin, can I ask you for a favor?"

"Mr. Li, please go ahead. I'll definitely help you if I can," Qin Lin said with a smile.

Li Kai was still a little conflicted. In the end, he said in embarrassment, "Um, can I stay at your place? The kind where I don't know when I'll leave? Li Qing will pay."

"What? Why should I pay for it?" Li Qing was stunned. "No, didn't you say that you wanted to solve the problem quickly and rush back to Ming City?"

"Li Qing, don't slander me. Which ear of yours heard me say that?" Li Kai immediately denied righteously.

"…" Li Qing was speechless. He was already so old, could he not be so childish?

Li Kai ignored Li Qing and said to Qin Lin seriously, "Boss Qin, your melon might be helpful to the experimental problem I'm doing now. Therefore, I want to study your melon. Don't worry, I'll only publish papers, academics, and books through the fruits of this melon research. The patent rights for the fruits will be yours."

These words stunned Qin Lin. Li Kai's meaning was very straightforward. As long as the other party was famous, everything else would belong to him.

Chapter 205

When Li Qing heard his uncle's words, he subconsciously looked at Qin Lin.

Money didn't do much for families like theirs. It was troublesome.

But having a reputation was different.

Good reputation and fame were definitely a huge support for their family. At the very least, it would make people feel that their family was upright.

His family knew about his uncle's research and knew that if his research could produce results, it would definitely bring his family a lot of fame.

Li Qing also said to Qin Lin, "Boss Qin, don't worry. My uncle can sign a contract with you. You can sponsor the research. The contract states that the patent for the research is yours."

"Besides, in our situation, we can't touch anything except this name. Otherwise, we'll get ourselves into trouble."

Qin Lin still believed in Li Qing's character. Moreover, with the popularity of the villa and the number of fans, he was not worried that Li Kai would play any tricks with his research. It was not a joke to cause online public opinion.

Most importantly, the Li family was a family that had been around for several generations. They would not ruin their reputation for a watermelon.

What he was thinking was that Li Qing could help him cover up with the wine, but Li Kai was a better tool. Who asked him to be an expert in this area?

He not only had watermelon seeds, but also Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds. There would even be other seeds in the future.

However, he had to think about how to make it look normal and plan carefully.

Therefore, Qin Lin immediately said to Li Kai, "Mr. Li, I naturally can't ask for more if you want to study this watermelon. Since it's considered sponsored research, I'll arrange a special bridal room and an office for you. There are many empty offices in the villa."

...

Li Kai was even more anxious than Qin Lin in this matter. When he saw Qin Lin agree, his face was immediately filled with joy. "Brother Qin, don't worry. I'll definitely make sure that I understand this melon. When you earn money, I'll publish a thesis and write a book to complement it."

His form of address had changed from Boss Qin to Brother Qin.

Li Kai said to Li Qing, "Li Qing, why are you still standing there? Go get someone to send the things from the research institute over. Don't delay our business."

"…" Li Qing rolled his eyes at his uncle, but he started making arrangements on his phone.

Li Kai said to Qin Lin anxiously, "Boss Qin, go and prepare the contract too. Let's quickly sign the contract so that I can rest assured, right?"

"Sure!" Qin Lin looked at Li Kai, who was even more anxious than him, and nodded with a smile. Then, he called Gao Yaoyao over and asked her to arrange the first bridal chamber for Li Kai.

After that, he went to his office to find Senior Brother Chu's WeChat and sent a message. "Senior Brother Chu, are you free? Help me draft a contract."

At the same time, he transferred 20,000 yuan.

This was the fee for a senior lawyer like Senior Brother Chu to draw up a contract.

He naturally did not know anything about sponsorship research and patent ownership contracts. He still had to rely on Senior Brother Chu.

Senior Brother Chu quickly replied, "Qin Lin, the need for your legal business is indeed increasing. Tell me, what are your requirements this time?"

Qin Lin briefly explained his situation with Li Kai, but hid Li Kai's identity.

Senior Brother Chu replied, "Alright, I've made a note of it. Now that our law firm's Director Robin is holding a senior lawyer's meeting, I can only go back tonight and help you rush it out. I'll send it to you tomorrow."

"Sorry to trouble you, Senior Brother Chu," Qin Lin replied and put down his phone.

…

A day passed.

Early the next morning, Qin Lin moved the things in the game out. After transporting them to the villa, he went to the backyard again to see the situation of the watermelon vines in the greenhouse.

As soon as he entered, he saw that Li Kai was already squatting in the small watermelon field and sprinkling water inside. He didn't know what he was doing.

When he saw Qin Lin enter, Li Kai said, "The situation in the greenhouse is very good. It will bloom and pollinate soon. Anyway, there's not much left. At that time, I will directly pollinate it manually. You don't have to catch any flying insects."

"Thank you, Mr. Li." Qin Lin nodded and walked into the greenhouse. As expected, the remaining watermelon vines did not continue to show signs of withering. Instead, the situation became much better after a night.

It also reassured him that he didn't have to start wasting time planting again.

It was nearing noon.

Qin Lin received the contract document from Senior Brother Chu in his office.

He downloaded and printed it immediately, then went to the original hall to look for Li Kai.

In the hall.

Li Qing and Li Kai sat at a table by the window. In front of them were some watermelons.

He could tell from the dirt still on the watermelon rind that it was from the watermelon field in the backyard. It had been cut open without washing.

But neither of them ate the melons.

Li Kai sat staring at the watermelon.

Li Qing stared at Li Kai helplessly. "Uncle, it's a waste for you to cut the melon and not eat it."

However, Li Kai replied, "This watermelon is sweeter and has a better texture. It must be made up of different ingredients such as carbohydrin, glutamate, arginine, phosphate, endorphine, and so on."

"…" Li Qing fell silent again. He could only remain silent about his uncle's incongruity.

Seeing Qin Lin coming over with a document, he hurriedly greeted, "Boss Qin, have you prepared the contract?"

"Yes, take a look at the contract." Qin Lin handed the contract and a pen to Li Qing.

Chapter 206

"Sign it!" Li Qing handed the contract to Li Kai without even looking at it.

After Li Kai took the contract, he only took a rough look at it and signed it after confirming the ownership of the thesis, academics, and books. Then, he returned one of them to Qin Lin. "Brother Qin, now that we can be considered partners, I can study it without worry."

"Happy cooperation." Qin Lin took the contract with a smile. The contract with Li Kai was a little casual and was completed easily.

There was indeed no need for too many situations for both sides.

After chatting with the two of them for a while, Qin Lin took the contract to his office and placed it in a safe that Zhao Moqing had bought for him.

As noon approached, he went into the game and killed a wild fish of Quality 2 and two 3-catty Quality 2 eels out of the space.

The eel and loach were cultivated in paddy fields. He had never taken out the Quality 2 ones, so he had a lot of stock.

Qin Lin carried the fish and the eel to the original hall. He planned to personally cook for Li Kai to celebrate signing the contract!

The eel was also a fish. The fish culinary skills he had obtained from the game could also serve as additional attributes when making the eel.

In the hall, Li Kai was still looking at the melon and taking notes.

Qin Lin was puzzled when he saw this. The watermelon had already been cut open, so what was there to see?

He saw that Li Kai was seriously memorizing something, as if there was really something going on.

Li Qing, on the other hand, was on the phone with Lin Liuping. "Honey, you know my uncle's personality. How can I be at ease? I'll only be at ease after watching him for a few days."

...

Li Kai looked up and glared at Li Qing. "Don't use me as an excuse if you don't want to go back."

Li Qing hurriedly hung up the phone. When he saw Qin Lin coming in with fish and eel, he said in surprise, "Boss Qin, you specially brought fish and eel over. Are we going to have a good meal at noon?"

He had eaten a lot of good food in Qinglin Villa, but what he kept thinking about was Boss Qin's fish banquet.

That was the kind of taste that people would never forget after eating it once.

"It's also a happy thing to sign the contract. Let's celebrate next time in the kitchen." After saying that, Qin Lin carried the Quality 2 black carp and eel into the kitchen.

"Boss Qin, then I think you should celebrate more often." After Li Qing received confirmation, his eyes lit up as he followed her into the kitchen.

Qin Lin put down the fish and eel and took the knife to deal with them.

He had never practiced any knife skills, but after obtaining the fish culinary skills, he was an old master at handling fish.

Li Qing watched from the side as Qin Lin handled the fish smoothly. It was quite pleasing to the eye.

He really admired Boss Qin. Not only were his accomplishments in wine better than his, but the fish he made was even better than the dishes at Old Yang's Red Door Feast.

Now that Old Yang was already old, everyone knew that he couldn't hold a banquet anymore. While everyone was feeling regretful, no one knew that Boss Qin wasn't inferior to Old Yang.

Soon, a dish of delicious +3, texture +3, appetite +1, and many other effects were served.

"Leave it to me." Li Qing took the fish almost immediately and carried it out of the kitchen. When he was outside and placed it on the table, he said to Li Kai, "Uncle, quickly bring these melons over. You're lucky this afternoon. You can eat good food as soon as you come."

Only then did Li Kai put away his pen and take the watermelon aside.

Li Qing put down the braised fish and went back to the kitchen. A moment later, he came out with another serving of fish soup and steamed fish.

Putting down the fish soup and steamed fish, he was satisfied to see that the braised fish was still intact. "You didn't eat without me, good."

Li Kai immediately had an opinion. "Li Qing, do you think I'm a glutton or plain silly? It's just a plate of braised fish. Why would I eat without you?"

However, Li Qing smiled and did not say anything. He could not wait to go to the spare disinfectant cabinet to get a bowl. He was very familiar with this place now.

After taking out three sets of cutlery and distributing them, he picked up his bowl and ordered a portion of fish soup. After taking a bite, he looked intoxicated. "This is the taste. Uncle, this meal is really thanks to you."

"Li Qing, can you not act like you've never seen the world during a meal?" Li Kai shook his head at his nephew's exaggerated behavior.

After all, he was someone who had eaten the Red Door Feast before. Was there a need for a meal?

He also picked up his chopsticks and put a piece of braised fish into his mouth. Then he was stunned.

This taste… seemed to be even better than the Red Door Feast.

Li Qing teased at the same time, "Uncle, do you suddenly feel like you've never seen the world?"

Li Kai really couldn't argue with that.

Who would have thought that Boss Qin's culinary skills were so good?

Wasn't it said that his attainments in wine were very high, even surpassing his nephew? How did he still have the energy to study culinary skills so highly?

At this moment, Qin Lin also walked out with the last two eel dishes. One was fried and the other was braised.

After he put down the things, Li Qing made way for him and got him a bowl of fish soup. "Boss Qin, sit."

Qin Lin sat down and took Li Qing's fish soup with a smile.

Li Kai had already picked up another piece of braised meat and put it into his mouth. He looked as intoxicated as Li Qing.

Taste +3, Delicious +3, Food +1. It was also a pleasure for everyone.

After finishing the bowl of fish soup, Li Kai couldn't help but look at Qin Lin and say, "Boss Qin, if only you were a woman. With your culinary skills, I really want to marry you."

Chapter 207

Li Qing said at the right time, "Boss Qin, be careful. My uncle is still single at his age."

"…" Qin Lin was stunned.

Be careful? Did he really think he was a woman?

However, he suddenly asked Li Qing, "Mr. Li, if you use Xiangshui Tribute Rice to make wine, that wine must be very good, right?"

This was also his way of testing the waters. Naturally, he had already thought of an excuse for the source of the Xiangshui Tribute Rice.

The Xiangshui Tribute Rice harvested from the paddy field was actually a bit of a waste, except for the Quality 2 ones that were kept at home to eat.

That was why he had this idea of making wine from Xiangshui Tribute Rice.

After the winery took over, although the winery could use the reputation of Qinglin Medicine Wine to publicize it, there had to be something outstanding among the ordinary wines.

That batch of aged wine could be used up in the beginning, but it would be used up later.

If he could brew some of the wine made by the ringing water and rice every year, even if it was only a very small number, it would definitely make countless people flock to it. It would also be a style and publicity.

Li Qing was clearly shocked by Qin Lin's bold idea. "Boss Qin, are you sure you're not joking? Is it Xiangshui Tribute Rice?"

That thing was extremely rare. His family could get some every year, but they could only get enough to satisfy their cravings.

With such a rare quantity, who would dare to think of brewing wine with it?

...

"It is." But Qin Lin nodded with certainty.

When Li Qing received this agreement, he asked anxiously, "You can brew wine, but where did you get Xiangshui Tribute Rice from?"

"I used Qinglin Medicine Wine to exchange for it!" Qin Lin smiled and started to fabricate a story. "Someone came to contact me and said that they had connections. Someone wanted to use Xiangshui Tribute Rice to exchange for some Qinglin Medicine Wine, but there wasn't much rice."

"Damn, how can that be?" Li Qing was shocked by this.

This was something he hadn't even thought about. After all, he didn't have Xiangshui Tribute Rice or Qinglin Medicine Wine.

But when he thought about it carefully, the reputation of Qinglin Medicine Wine had already spread. Everyone knew that Qinglin Medicine Wine was better and more high-end than the Xiangshui Tribute Rice.

Under such circumstances, it was really possible to exchange Qinglin Medicine Wine for Xiangshui Tribute Rice.

Moreover, now that someone had come looking for him, it would depend on Boss Qin if he wanted to exchange it with the Qinglin Medicine Wine.

Li Kai suddenly felt as if he had discovered a new continent.

There were many good things in the country. Xiangshui Tribute Rice, the medicinal wine of the two inherited families, and many such rare items.

These things were difficult to obtain even for someone of their family's status, but what if the person who owned them wanted the other party's things?

People who owned these things didn't exchange things like this in private, did they?

The more Li Qing thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Otherwise, why would someone come looking for him when Qinglin Medicine Wine had just become famous?

This was really something he could not come into contact with. No wonder they said that there was a rat path and a snake path. If it was not the right path, it was useless.

As for the people and connections that Qin Lin mentioned, Li Qing did not probe further. After all, it would not be good to ask about some things. He might offend a group of people.

"Can you really exchange it for Xiangshui Tribute Rice?" Li Qing asked again.

"I think so," Qin Lin said in uncertainty.

That was the excuse he had in mind. Besides, no one else had any way of proving the truth.

Even if someone wanted to ask, he could choose not to tell them. Who was he to tell them? Li Qing and the others would not ask further, so they were very comfortable with each other.

Other than those who were sent to the capital, the rest would be sent to various places. As long as they controlled the number, they would not be able to confirm it.

In the future, the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds could be said to have been obtained this way. After all, it could not be planted anywhere else, and the control of the seed was not too strict.

If he triggered the mutation, it would be because Youcheng County's geographical environment was good. In addition, Li Kai was a professional. What did it have to do with Qin Lin?

If this news could spread from Li Qing, it would be equivalent to doing this.

Tool people had to be useful.

Li Qing said anxiously, "Boss Qin, you have to hand it to me when the time comes. I'll brew it for you personally. I've never drunk wine made from Xiangshui Tribute Rice."

"Sure, I'll definitely let Mr. Li come." Qin Lin smiled and nodded.

Beside them, Li Kai looked at the two of them in shock. Naturally, he knew about Xiangshui Tribute Rice.

But what were these two discussing? Brewing wine with Xiangshui Tribute Rice?

He wanted to drink this kind of wine too.

Chapter 208

Qin Lin parked the car in the warehouse. After entering the game, he went straight to the storage room and came to the two bags of rice.

Two bags of rice still had the words 'Xiangshui Tribute Rice' printed on them.

This was Xiangshui Tribute Rice harvested from the Level 2 paddy field yesterday. It was not sold in the game.

There were 50 catties in each bag, totaling 100 catties.

[Xiangshui Tribute Rice: Quality 1]

[This is a specially cultivated rice. It's extremely rare and has rich nutritional value. It's rich in nutrition +1, taste +1, mellow +1, delicious +1, and vitamin VPP anti-aging +1.]

Ordinary rice brewed in a 60-year-old wine cellar would have a rich wine fragrance +1 attribute.

According to the characteristics of the game, using this water to brew wine was very likely to inherit these special attributes of the water.

Then, when he went to test the brewed wine, it would be discovered that there was actually a lot of nutrition and anti-aging substances in it. Even the people who tested it would be dumbfounded.

This could be considered a treasure among ordinary wine.

Natural taste +1. Even if it was a new wine, the taste would not be inferior to a five-star Maotai wine that was more than ten years old.

According to the game's data conversion, real-life wine had to go through more than ten years of precipitation before it had a +1 taste.

Previously, after telling Li Qing that he wanted to use the Xiangshui Tribute Rice to make wine, he specially waited for a few days before entering the game to move it.

...

Over the past few days, Li Qing could not wait to ask several times. For someone like him who had a special interest in alcohol, making Xiangshui Tribute Rice wine was obviously a huge temptation.

Or rather, no one in the country had done this until now.

Qin Lin carried the two bags of Xiangshui Tribute Rice out of the game, placed them in the trunk of the car, and drove back to the villa.

As soon as he reached the villa parking lot, he dialed Li Qing's number. "Mr. Li, the Xiangshui Tribute Rice is here. I'm in the parking lot."

"Wait for me. I'll be right there," Li Qing said anxiously before hanging up. A moment later, he jogged out of the villa.

As soon as Li Qing saw Qin Lin, he asked, "Mr. Qin, where's the Xiangshui Tribute Rice?"

"In the trunk!" Qin Lin opened the trunk, revealing two bags of Xiangshui Tribute Rice.

"Boss Qin, this is 100 catties, right?" Li Qing was still surprised when he saw the two bags of Xiangshui Tribute Rice.

It was absolutely incredible to get so much Xiangshui Tribute Rice at once.

Qin Lin nodded and said, "Yes, 100 catties."

"Let's go to the winery," Li Qing urged hurriedly.

He was feeling a little itchy now, and couldn't wait to brew these Xiangshui Tribute Rice into wine.

Qin Lin smiled as he got into the car and brought Li Qing to the winery.

In the winery, Master Zhang was making music with his men. They were using the high-quality winemaking materials that Zhao Moqing had just bought.

As soon as these materials arrived, Master Zhang led his men to start work immediately. Even if the fragrant white wine was new, it would take 45 to 60 days to brew it according to the fermentation situation.

If they started work early, there would be fewer empty windows.

"Boss!" When Master Zhang saw Qin Lin, he immediately went forward to welcome him.

Qin Lin instructed directly, "Master Zhang, bring someone to move the two bags of rice in my car."

Although Master Zhang was puzzled, he still summoned a master to open the trunk of Qin Lin's car.

"Xiangshui Tribute Rice?" Master Zhang was surprised to see the logo on the two bags of rice.

He was also the manager of Qinglin Villa. Over the past few days, he had naturally caught up on the matters regarding Qinglin Villa. Naturally, he knew about the melon king, the Supreme Set meal, and the Xiangshui Tribute Rice.

It was rumored that this Xiangshui Tribute Rice was still priceless even at 2,000 yuan a catty. Those rich people could not buy it even if they wanted to.

Now, these two bags probably weighed 100 catties. That was 200,000 yuan.

Two bags of rice cost 200,000 yuan, which was absolutely unimaginable for ordinary people.

"Boss, don't tell me you're going to use this rice to make wine?" Master Zhang opened his mouth, finding it unbelievable.

How much would a wine made from two bags of such rice cost?

In the wine cellar.

When Li Qing saw Master Zhang carrying the Xiangshui Tribute Rice in, he immediately asked, "Master Zhang, is there a clean machine for crushing materials in the wine cellar? Shatter all this rice into smaller powder and prepare some supplementary materials for me."

The process of brewing wine was similar, but the details and ingredients would be different for different people. Many companies even had unique ingredients, so it also caused a huge difference in the wine fragrance and texture of the various brands of wine.

He also had his own unique ingredients method. Zhuang Rui had once spent a lot of money to buy them from him, but he refused to sell them.

"Are we really going to use this rice to make wine?" Master Zhang was clearly shocked. Then, he hurriedly said, "I'll bring people to clean the machine."

Since the boss wanted to use the two bags of rice wine, he would just do as he was told. The rest was not something he should worry about.

Besides, two bags of rice wine worth 200,000 yuan could be taken out to brag about in the future.

"I'll go too." Li Qing was a little worried and left with Master Zhang.

Brewing was a very hard and tedious business.

After Li Qing started using the Xiangshui Tribute Rice to brew the wine, he was completely immersed in it. It was as if he was completely oblivious to everything. It was even hard to believe that he was a second-generation heir.

Qin Lin looked at the time and found an excuse to return to the villa.

There was no way he could stay in the wine cellar forever.

For the next two days, Li Qing was completely immersed in the winery.

Qin Lin entered the game two days later and took out a bottle of medicinal wine from the storage room. It was not made of imitation ancient bronze bottles and silver bottles, but ordinary transparent bottles

Chapter 209

The wine inside was a medicinal brew made from bitter ginseng and 20-year-old wine.

These days, the age of the 20-year-old wine has also increased by three or four years in the game. The effects of the bitter ginseng were also perfectly integrated into the wine.

[Qinglin Medicine Wine: Quality 2]

[This is a special medicinal wine made from bitter ginseng. Some of its effects are very strong: treating acne +2, treating internal hemorrhoids +2, treating external acne prolapse +2, rich wine fragrance +1, taste +1, clear heat and humidity +1… eczema -1, wet sores -1, skin itch -1.]

The medicinal wine that was brewed not only inherited the information of the bitter ginseng, but also retained the original wine fragrance and taste attributes of the 20-year-old wine.

Although this medicinal wine did not have the same effect on men as the wine brewed by Cherokee roses and myrtle, it was still a blessing for men.

What was that saying?

10 men, nine hemorrhoids!

It meant that nine out of 10 men have hemorrhoids.

Naturally, this was an exaggeration, but it also proved the high rate of hemorrhoids.

Besides, once someone got hemorrhoids, the itching was mild. The serious part was the pain, the fidgeting, especially when taking a dump. The torture went without saying.

When a man really had hemorrhoids, he would probably need this medicinal wine more than anything else.

Moreover, this +2 attribute healing effect was definitely not weak.

...

Qin Lin picked up the medicinal wine for acne and took two sips.

After more than 20 years of vintage wine, he could feel a little texture even if he didn't know how to drink.

Unfortunately, he didn't have hemorrhoids, and he didn't know the effects of the medicinal wine on them.

This way, he could only ask the others and experiment with the wine.

Qin Lin exited the game and returned to his office. He opened the door and walked out, only to meet Gao Yaoyao and a few waitresses.

He was too embarrassed to ask them if they had hemorrhoids, so he could only go to the original hall. However, he saw Chen Dabei writing information with a young man in a security uniform.

"Boss!" Chen Dabei said enthusiastically.

"Boss!" The young man in the security uniform also said respectfully to Qin Lin.

Chen Dabei explained, "Boss, he's Xiao Luo. Didn't the winery send a few security guards over for two shifts? Xiao Luo is the intern captain."

"Okay, work hard!" Qin Lin nodded at the young man.

Most of the veterans recruited by the villa were young. Some of them were even younger than him.

This guy was clearly one such.

"Thank you, boss!" said Xiao Luo enthusiastically.

The job of security guard was very resistant to young people, but it was different when they were the security guards of Qinglin Villa. Because of the high salary, it had already exceeded the average salary in Youcheng County by a lot. There was also insurance and various benefits, and they were even provided with food. When the dormitory could be lived in for a period of time, they could still live in the dormitory.

The key was that he could earn an additional 1,000 yuan as a security guard captain. This way, his salary would be higher than Xiao Yuan's salary.

Xiao Yuan was the head waitress of the sales center. She was his type, but his salary was lower than hers and he didn't have the confidence to chase after her.

Qin Lin didn't know what Xiao Luo was thinking. He thought of the hemorrhoid medicine and asked Chen Dabei, "Supervisor Chen, do you have hemorrhoids? I have medicine for hemorrhoids. Do you want to try it?"

He had no qualms asking Chen Dabei.

"Huh?" When Chen Dabei heard Qin Lin's words, his legs inadvertently folded together. Then, he hurriedly denied and shook his head. "Boss, why would I have hemorrhoids for no reason? Ask Xiao Luo if he has hemorrhoids."

"I don't!" Xiao Luo shook his head quickly.

Helpless, Qin Lin walked towards the backyard. Li Kai was currently extracting the juice of the watermelon vine with a tool. It was obvious that he was doing some experiments.

These days, Li Qing's men had also helped him send the things from the research institute over.

When Li Kai saw Qin Lin enter, he looked up and said, "Brother Qin, the watermelons in your greenhouse have already been artificially pollinated. When the watermelons mature, you can breed them."

Qin Lin nodded, then stared at Li Kai.

Surely someone who sat and studied all the time had a good chance of getting hemorrhoids?

So he asked, "Mr. Li, do you have hemorrhoids?"

Li Kai was stunned by the question. Then, he hurriedly said, "Brother Qin, do you think I look like someone who will get hemorrhoids? Why are you asking this for no reason?"

Qin Lin didn't hide anything and said helplessly, "I got some medicinal wine that's effective for treating hemorrhoids. I wanted to find someone to try it, but I don't have a target!"

What happened to nine out of 10 men having hemorrhoids?

He didn't have hemorrhoids himself. According to this sentence, the other nine men in the villa should all have hemorrhoids. Why couldn't he find a target?

Li Kai subconsciously stared at the medicinal wine in Qin Lin's hand. "Boss Qin, are you saying that the wine in your hand can treat hemorrhoids?"

"Yes, it was just brewed." Qin Lin sighed. He couldn't possibly ask his employees one by one, right?

Forget it, he would arrange for Chen Dabei to ask later.

"Boss Qin, actually, I have a friend…" Just as Li Kai was about to say something, Qin Lin's phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Qin Ren. He picked up the phone and walked out. "Da Ren, I'm in the original hall… You're outside? Come in then."

He knew why Qin Ren had come. Previously, he had entrusted their studio to bid for the Qinglin Brewery bottle container. Now, there should be a result.

At the entrance of the hall, Qin Lin saw Qin Ren and Hu Fei walk in.

"President Qin!" Hu Fei greeted him with a smile.

Chapter 210

Qin Ren also said, "Lin Zi, I've helped you choose the labels of four companies. Two of them are from Sand City. I've brought the labels. Choose one yourself."

Qinglin Villa was too popular. Its influence was no longer limited to Youcheng County.

After they sent the message, a few companies in Sand City had contacted them.

"Let's go inside." Qin Lin smiled and welcomed the two of them in. Then, he called Gao Yaoyao to send some fruits and drinks over.

After sitting down, Qin Lin was surprised to see Hu Fei sitting uncomfortably.

That state made his eyes light up. He subconsciously asked, "Hu Fei, what's the matter?"

Before Hu Fei could answer, Qin Ren teased, "His hemorrhoids are acting up. It started yesterday. He doesn't seem to be sitting or standing properly these two days. He often has hemorrhoids, it comes to greet him from time to time."

Hu Fei said in frustration, "Qin Ren, are you joking? It's like you've never had hemorrhoids before."

Qin Ren hurriedly denied, "What are you thinking? I'm not like you who sits in front of the computer all day. How can I get hemorrhoids so easily?"

However, Qin Lin smiled.

Wasn't Hu Fei his experimental subject?

He immediately said to Hu Fei, "Hu Fei, you're very lucky. I've just made some medicinal wine that can treat hemorrhoids. You can try it."

He handed the bottle of medicinal wine to Hu Fei and went to the bar to get a glass for him.

...

This scene made Chen Dabei subconsciously look over.

Li Kai also walked out of the backyard door.

Hu Fei looked at the bottle of medicinal wine and asked Qin Lin in disbelief, "President Qin, don't you have to avoid alcohol for hemorrhoids? Is this wine really effective?"

Although he asked, he had already poured himself a glass of wine.

He knew about Qinglin Medicine Wine. It was too famous and rumored to be divine.

This medicinal wine might really be effective.

"This wine tastes good." Hu Fei's eyes lit up as he drank. Although he did not know how to taste wine, he could still taste good wine.

This was definitely good wine.

Hu Fei could not resist pouring himself another drink.

This wine was delicious.

However, he also knew that he and Qin Ren were here for business. He hurriedly handed the four document bags to Qin Lin. "President Qin, take a look at the four proposals and see which one you prefer."

Qin Lin nodded and took the four proposals. He took the first folder and opened it. There were only three pages in the proposal. One page was the design blueprint, one page was the materials introduction, and the other page was the price and design concept report.

The appearance of this first design was clearly borrowed from his imitation bronze wine bottle. It was also an imitation of the ancient style. Even the position of the 'Qinglin Wine' was similar to the position of the 'Qinglin Medicine Wine'.

The guy who designed it was smart. This would make Qinglin Medicine Wine and Qinglin Wine more appropriate. Anyone could tell at a glance that they were from the same company.

After Qin Lin finished reading the blueprint for the first proposal, he was about to open the second proposal when Hu Fei suddenly exclaimed, "Eh, so fast?"

"What's so fast?" Qin Ren frowned.

"The wine… seems to be working?" Hu Fei's face was filled with disbelief and even shock.

It had only been a short while, but after two glasses of wine, he actually felt a slight heat gathering towards the hemorrhoids. Then, it was as if a hot towel was placed on it, and the stinging pain eased a lot.

The effect was amazing.

It had to be known that using the best hemorrhoid ointment would take half a day to take effect, but it would take about a week to get better.

Qin Lin was also a little surprised. It seemed that the effects of three treating hemorrhoids +2 were surprisingly strong.

"F*ck, can Lin Zi's wine really treat hemorrhoids?" Qin Ren was surprised. He subconsciously took the glass that Hu Fei had drunk from and poured himself a glass of wine to drink.

Qin Lin and Hu Fei immediately looked at Qin Ren with a scrutinizing gaze.

Qin Ren suddenly felt a little awkward and laughed. "Well, didn't Hu Fei say that the wine was delicious? Let me try it."

Qin Lin teased, "Da Ren, there are no outsiders. There's actually nothing to be embarrassed about."

"Brother Qin, I heard you guys shouting that this new medicinal wine tastes good inside. Let me try it." Li Kai suddenly came over from the bar with a glass and poured a glass of wine into it.

Qin Lin stared at Li Kai in shock.

But Li Kai nonchalantly picked up his glass and drank.

"Mmm, this wine tastes really good," Li Kai praised very seriously. He had already poured another glass in his hand and was drinking as he walked towards the backyard.

Chen Dabei suddenly walked to Qin Lin's side and asked awkwardly, "Boss, can I have a drink with that wine?"

"?" Qin Lin immediately understood.

He knew it. Nine out of 10 men had hemorrhoids. How could he not find a test subject in this villa? How f*cking dishonest.

Chapter 211

There were two types of bidding documents. Business and technical.

The wine bottle design plan of Qinglin Villa was considered a technical standard.

After winning the bid, the winnings would be produced according to the blueprint. As for the difference in materials and production specifications, it depended on how Qinglin Villa chose.

"I'll choose this proposal!" Qin Lin read the four proposals and finally chose the first plan.

This plan was the same as Zhang Shi's back then. It was a little opportunistic.

Zhang Shi had turned the bottom of the milk tea cup into Qinglin Villa's Triangular Plum Blossom Sea. It was a perfect match for the logo of Qinglin Villa.

The company now belonged to Sand City. Youcheng County's company did not have the advantage of being in a favorable position. That was really no one's fault. The design was not bad. Unfortunately, they did not know what their villa really wanted.

Although this first plan had borrowed from his imitation bronze wine bottle, or rather, copied a large portion of it, their design plan was completely compatible with Qinglin Medicine Wine.

Although Qinglin Wine was an ordinary series of white wine, it was still from Qinglin Villa. The other party's plan was very recognizable.

The designs of the other three families were not bad, but it would be too abrupt to put them in the villa.

Technical marks were different from business marks. Business marks depended on the base price, while technical marks depended on whether the mark could capture the client's heart.

Some people who failed in bidding often self-righteously joined in their many ideas. Actually, many people who lacked talent were in this situation.

Not only did they not know what their clients wanted, they tried to get them to accept their ideas.

...

This was like going to the hospital to get some medicine when you had a cold. In the end, the doctor clearly knew and still wanted you to do this checkup. Then, the checkup would conclude that you had caught a cold and the 1,000 yuan would be gone.

In the doctor's words, this was for your own good, but this was not what you wanted.

What right did they have to force the client to pay them?

Qin Ren nodded. "Alright, let's inform the other party and get them to send the sample over for inspection as soon as possible."

After this matter was confirmed, Qin Lin looked at Hu Fei and asked, "Hu Fei, how do you feel now?"

Hu Fei knew what Qin Lin was asking and immediately said, "President Qin, it doesn't feel that painful anymore. I feel that it will get better in one night. It will take almost a week for it to get better without having to apply hemorrhoid cream. The key is that it will be so uncomfortable after applying that thing."

Qin Lin nodded and instructed, "Take the rest of the wine back with you. Tell me when it gets better."

There was not much medicinal wine, so it was impossible for it to be sold on a large scale. It could only be used occasionally for activities to increase the popularity and reputation of the villa. It also made the villa have another legend besides the medicinal wine that nourished the kidneys and strengthened the body.

But he still had to figure out the exact effect first.

This was only a small bottle of wine. It was not much. He would treat it as a benefit for Hu Fei, the chief experiencer.

"The rest is for me?" Hu Fei immediately took the wine with a look of surprise.

He obviously hadn't expected such a perk. He was well aware of the discomfort of hemorrhoids, especially since he was a programmer who sat for long periods of time.

This time, it was so serious that he could not eat or sleep in peace. With this medicinal wine, he felt that he would no longer be afraid of hemorrhoids in the future.

Beside him.

Qin Ren and Chen Dabei looked at the wine in Hu Fei's hand with envy.

Chen Dabei was even more vexed.

The boss had asked him first. If he didn't start acting coy, the wine would be his.

Li Kai's figure appeared at the entrance of the backyard again. He sighed slightly. He had also felt the effect of the medicinal wine.

Sometimes when he did experiments, he also sat in front of a microscope for a long time. He was also prone to acne. Once it got serious, he would be distraught while doing an experiment.

How could he have missed this bottle of medicinal wine?

So, sometimes men really regret missing out.

"What about the three of you? How do you feel about hemorrhoids now?" Qin Lin looked at Qin Ren, Chen Dabei, and Li Kai.

This freaking embarrassed the three of them.

"It's alright. Mine isn't serious!" Qin Ren said sheepishly.

Although nine out of 10 men had hemorrhoids, it was still quite difficult to admit that he had hemorrhoids in public.

Chen Dabei also said with an awkward expression, "Boss, it's not serious. I feel better."

Li Kai was no longer at the backyard door.

Obviously, what Qin Lin could know now was that the medicinal wine for treating hemorrhoids was very effective.

Hu Fei had severe hemorrhoids. When he went back to see when it would get better, he would know how effective the medicinal wine was.

"President Qin, thank you so much for today. I'll take this wine back with me." Hu Fei thanked him like it was a treasure and planned to leave with Qin Ren.

Just as the two of them were about to leave, the walkie-talkie on Chen Dabei's waist rang. "Supervisor Chen, something happened at the sales center. Two tourists had a conflict and even fought."

Chen Dabei immediately stood up and asked the walkie-talkie, "Tell me clearly, what happened? Have you informed Captain Hong?"

The security guard's report came over the intercom again. "Captain Hong has been informed. It's just that there may be some trouble this time. It's a woman who's had a falling-out with a foreign tourist. That woman even scratched the foreign tourist's face."

"Let's go take a look!" Qin Lin frowned slightly.

As Qinglin Villa developed, not only were the domestic tourists attracted, but some foreign tourists also came.

Chapter 212

Naturally, these foreign tourists were not international tourists. They were not the kind of people who could stay in the country for long. Those people basically went to View 5A.

The foreign tourists who came to his villa to play basically all had residence permits to stay in the country for a long time.

The villa had even received a white tourist with a national identity card.

Many people in the country envied the full moon overseas and emigrated. However, there were also more foreigners who wanted to own and cherish things that they did not care about.

Moreover, it was even more difficult for foreigners to join the Chinese nationality and there were many conditions. This was because the country didn't recognize dual citizenship. The country would heavily review contributions to the country's construction.

Therefore, many foreigners cherished Chinese nationality even more.

After the white tourist used his ID to register, he actually carefully wiped it before putting it back into his wallet. The waitresses even talked about it for a long time.

However, in the face of this kind of conflict between foreign tourists and domestic tourists, it would be easy to deal with if the foreign tourists were wrong. They could just get Captain Hong to arrest the foreign tourists and hand them over to the relevant departments to deal with. Then the Internet would definitely give them a lot of praise.

But the most troublesome thing was that it might not be the fault of foreign tourists.

This was troublesome.

He thought about the news that had just come out the day before yesterday. A video of a woman shouting at a foreign tourist in the subway had exploded on the Internet in a short time.

The cause seemed to be because a woman was randomly squeezing. The other passengers were very critical. Finally, a foreigner said, "Can you stop squeezing?"

The result was naturally that the woman started cursing as if she didn't deserve to be scolded.

When this news came out, although most people could remain objective and felt that the foreigners were not wrong, even if the passengers had already proven that it was the woman's fault at that time, there was still a group of people who were patriotic, wanted to help their own people.

If anyone dared to question these people, they would immediately be labeled as a traitor.

If a small friction in the subway was already like this, a place like the scenic area, which was already sensitive, would be even more difficult to deal with. Besides, he had already been injured.

If it really wasn't the fault of a foreign tourist, then he could either go against his conscience and help the woman and get away with it. After all, no one would stand up for him if a foreign tourist suffered a loss. Or he could stand on the side of reason and not family. He could deal with it however he wanted and be prepared to be scolded online.

Qin Ren and Hu Fei were curious and followed behind.

Soon, Qin Lin brought them to the sales center.

Sure enough, a group of tourists had already gathered there. All of them were taking photos with their phones.

A patrol cop and two security guards also stepped between the foreign tourist and woman trying to mediate.

But it was completely useless. They were still arguing.

The foreign tourist was still covering his face. There were scratches.

What surprised Qin Lin was that this foreign tourist was arguing with the woman in Chinese.

The woman said, "This foreigner touched my butt. He's a pervert. Everyone, take a photo."

The foreign tourist said, "No, I'm not a pervert. I didn't touch her. I'm not interested in a body like hers."

When the woman heard this, she seemed to be a little annoyed. Seeing that the patrolling police officers and security guards had not moved, she shouted even more unhappily, "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and arrest this pervert. Is Qinglin Villa going to protect foreigners? Are foreigners first-class citizens here? There are so many tourists watching."

Qin Lin was already frowning.

This kind of thing was indeed tricky.

Natural foreign social problems were sensitive.

"Boss Qin!" Captain Hong walked over from the other side. He had been watching for a while and had only handed it to his subordinates to mediate. He had yet to enter.

Qin Lin frowned and asked, "Captain Hong, how should we deal with this?"

Captain Hong said, "The woman said the foreign tourist touched her. The foreign tourist said this woman cut in line. He called out a warning and the woman scratched him."

"Uh!" Qin Lin's frown deepened. "There shouldn't be such a brainless woman who would frame someone in a scenic area like this, right? Could it really be this foreign tourist who stretched out his hand?"

"Supervisor Chen, there are surveillance cameras here. Let's go look at the surveillance video," Captain Hong said to Chen Dabei with a sigh.

He was also most afraid of foreign tourists being in the right.

Because he had no choice in this situation. He could only choose to help reason rather than family. The law was there.

But even so, it was inevitable that he would be scolded by some people. After all, it was not like there were no police officers who dealt with such incidents.

Some people didn't care about right or wrong. Instead, they naturally liked the feeling of being on the moral high ground.

Qin Lin and the others went straight to the surveillance room.

When Chen Dabei came over, he had already asked the security guards in the surveillance room to pull out the surveillance cameras. As soon as they arrived, they could see the surveillance video.

On the video, the foreign tourist could be seen carrying a backpack and queuing up seriously like the other tourists.

Seeing this, there were already a few sighs in the monitoring room.

Because the line in front of the foreign tourist did not have that woman before and after, which meant that what that woman said might all be lies.

Sure enough, a moment later the woman appeared. At first, she queued at the back. However, she seemed unable to wait. She directly cut the line.

Seeing that the tourists didn't say anything, she silently stepped forward two more and cut the line again. She did this several times in a row, until she and the foreign tourist started arguing. As the foreign tourist had said, she cut the line, and they started arguing after a word.

Chapter 213

Why did this feel like an unreasonable person? Her family was tolerant and understanding of her, but she took it for granted that outsiders would also be polite to her?

"She's disgraced her country," Captain Hong said resentfully. Then he copied the surveillance channel. "Boss Qin, I'll go and mediate. Try to make it a big deal. Give her a chance. If she doesn't appreciate it, I'll release the video."

"Yes!" Qin Lin nodded. Although this was unfair to foreign tourists, if they really arrested the woman according to the rules, the scenic area would definitely be scolded by some people. This might even become a counterpoint incident.

After all, a female subway passenger vs. a foreign passenger incident had just happened yesterday. This quickly led to another female tourist vs. a foreign tourist incident.

The key was that the woman was still unreasonable. There might be people talking about the women in the country. He did not want the villa to be involved in such a contrasting matter.

After all, these two women could not represent all women. It was purely an individual mistake.

Moreover, although these two foreigners were in the right, many foreigners were indeed unrestrained in the country. It was also true that they were annoying.

Individual matters were not complicated. He was just afraid of being compared to others.

After Captain Hong left, Qin Ren, who had followed him, said, "Lin Zi, give us a copy of this surveillance video. I know that if something like this gets online and someone deliberately guides it, regardless of right or wrong, your villa will be in trouble. Why don't we get you to guide it first and let everyone know the truth?"

Qin Lin nodded.

…

Captain Hong quickly returned to the sales center. After the mediation between the patrol cop and the two security guards, the woman argued even more fiercely with the foreign tourist.

Captain Hong walked in and ordered the two security guards with a frown, "Send this gentleman inside first. I want to talk to this lady."

The two security guards nodded and invited the foreign tourist sheepishly.

Captain Hong stepped toward the woman as well. "Ma'am, it's not a good idea for everyone to be gathered around here. Why don't we find a place to talk and have everyone disperse?"

The woman could obviously tell that Captain Hong was the leader of the scenic patrol, but it was precisely because of this that she said very stubbornly, "Why do we have to talk somewhere else? Are you trying to cover up for that foreign tourist so that everyone won't know?"

She knew exactly what was going on. She had acted on impulse, but she knew it was too late to back down now.

More importantly, she was the planner of a media company and knew the power of public opinion. Public opinion could pressure many people and even distort the truth.

Now that there were so many tourists around, she could guide the others to put pressure on the other party. That would be to her advantage.

Captain Hong's frown deepened. "I'm giving you a chance, ma'am," he reminded her. "You should cooperate with us."

When the woman heard this, she clearly felt that something was wrong. In her impatience, she actually took out her phone and started filming Captain Hong.

Doing self-media was naturally her habit.

"Sigh!" Captain Hong felt really helpless when he saw this. He took out his handcuffs. "Ma'am, you've disturbed the security of the scenic area. Now we're asking you to go back and cooperate with the investigation."

These words made the woman completely anxious. She could only go all out and say, "Everyone, take a look. Qinglin Villa is protecting foreign tourists. It's fine to be a pervert among them."

"There are surveillance cameras here. Have you been lying so much that you've forgotten what the truth is?" Captain Hong snorted this time and brought the handcuffs to the woman.

In that instant, the woman was dumbfounded.

Qin Lin shook his head when he saw this scene among the tourists. Captain Hong had given the other party a chance, but she didn't cherish it.

He did think that no woman would be so stupid. After all, she was not a young girl. But he seemed a little naive to think this way.

At this moment, Chen Dabei also stepped forward and said to the tourists around him, "We will upload the surveillance video of the incident to the public multimedia screen in the hall. Everyone can go and take a look at the whole story."

These words made the woman's face turn extremely pale. Her legs went limp and she lost her balance.

If Captain Hong hadn't been pulling her, she would have fallen to the ground.

She was involved in self-media planning. She knew exactly what she was going to face next.

Being abused by the Internet, losing her job, not being able to make it in the industry she has always worked in…'

She really regretted cutting the line and bringing things to this point over a spat.

At this moment, Chen Dabei continued, "Although many foreigners are unrestrained and annoying in our place, we can't abandon our morals just because we hate foreigners, let alone distort the truth."

"Whatever it is, it's built on our own sense of right and wrong. Otherwise, what's the difference between us and those who haven't finished evolving?"

These words were at the level of the management of a scenic area. The surrounding tourists also applauded.

Because for some reason, the security guard was right.

This farce ended with the woman asking for trouble.

Qinglin Villa naturally waived the foreign tourist's bill and even sent him a set of Quality 1 eel and loach. The foreign tourist ate until his mouth was full. Clearly, Quality 1 was something he had never eaten in his life.

…

The next day, he went to the warehouse to move the items from the game to the villa. Qin Lin returned to his office and took out his phone. As expected, he realized that yesterday's incident had been exposed online.

Like the video of the woman scolding the foreign passenger on the subway, most people could remain objective and even express dissatisfaction with the woman cutting in line and distorting the truth.

After all, no one liked someone who didn't follow the rules and casually queued up, let alone someone who distorted the truth.

It was a light punishment to scold her for embarrassing the Chinese.

However, Qinglin Villa was still scolded by some people.

The reason was naturally not defending their own people.

However, Qin Lin did not mind. It was impossible for everyone to like his business, right?

After settling some matters, Zhao Moqing came over and asked, "Qin Lin, you said that the signboard of the villa is already being customized. How long will it take for it to arrive? Mom heard that the villa wants to change the signboard and asked them to choose a few auspicious days."

"It should be ready. I'll go get it myself," Qin Lin said with a smile.

Old people always believed more in things like feng shui and auspicious days.

Since his mother had chosen a few auspicious dates, he would choose one of them to hang the signs.

"Since we're going to choose an auspicious day, let's hold another event at the villa!" Qin Lin said and stood up with a smile. He pulled Zhao Moqing over and sat on his lap, his hands on her waist.

Men would more or less want to try romantic things in the office.

Even if he didn't work in the office, he could still experience that romantic atmosphere, right?

Chapter 214

In the office, Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing played around for a while before Zhao Moqing received a call and went out to settle some matters.

He, on the other hand, looked at the game on the screen in his mind. Then, he controlled the game character to go fishing. After catching all 35 refreshed fish, he controlled the game character to go to Mount Notre Dame with an ax to cut trees.

He controlled the game character to cut down trees every day. He obtained some precious wood and made it into a desk and tea table.

He could bring it back with him when he went to get the sign.

However, his luck seemed to be very bad today. He controlled the game characters to cut down all the trees that spawned today. There were actually six poplar trees and the rest were ordinary trees.

Which meant no harvest at all.

Qin Lin could only sigh.

In the afternoon, he drove the truck to the warehouse and parked it. He got out and closed the door.

First, he carefully carried the three signs to the car, then entered the game with a thought.

In the game, Qin Lin's gains from the past few days appeared.

Desk, tea table, two boxes of incense powder!

They were all created by the wood processor after the trees were cut down and harvested for wood materials.

Besides, he had only made these three things in a few days.

[Rosewood desk: Quality 1]

[Red sandalwood tea table: Quality 1]

Red sandalwood was also one of the 10 most expensive trees. It was only slightly less expensive than rosewood.

These were all made by Qin Lin with a realistic design plan and were planned to be placed in the office.

The rosewood desk alone required three sets of Quality 1 rosewood materials to build.

These days, he was unlucky. The rosewood materials he had harvested were all turned into this table.

And this table weighed nearly 140 catties.

Although red sandalwood was not as expensive as rosewood, it still cost more than 3,000 pounds per catty. The tea table was semi-solid, but it was heavier than a desk. It weighed 180 catties.

The desk and tea table had already been automatically waxed after the processing machine was completed. The surface was lustrous and looked very pleasing to the eye.

Moreover, because of the design, the appearance was very high-end and classy.

However, if he brought all these things and the signboard back, they would be worth more than two million yuan. He would have to transfer a large sum of money from the villa.

Previously, the villa's turnover was hundreds of thousands, and a large portion of it was done without capital. When Zhao Moqing was alone, he could still bluff his way through, because Zhao Moqing trusted him completely.

Now that there were accounting and finance methods, he could not do what he did in the past.

After all, those accountants would definitely be confused about the cost when they counted. Therefore, after hiring accountants, he would periodically transfer a sum of money to the private accounts that he had set up. In name, it was the cost of those things that were not part of the game.

What he told Zhao Moqing about this portion of the money was also a secret business channel. He did not use the villa's account.

It was just that the operation was a little troublesome. In the eyes of others, he had become a middleman between the villa and the suppliers.

However, he had 100% shares of the villa. It would not be a problem to say that it was a business secret.

Naturally, this money couldn't lie in his account forever. That would only increase. Therefore, he transferred all the money into the stock market and used it all to buy Penguin's liquid shares.

He was going to have to do the same thing this time.

Buying the shares of a large company like Penguin would usually not result in them being trapped. If they were in a hurry to sell them, they could just sell them at a lower price. In any case, they would not have any capital.

Qin Lin then looked at the third item, which was the two boxes of incense powder. Even rich people like Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen would find it difficult to buy them.

The incense powder was packed in the box that the system had successfully created to be attached. It was powdery, pale yellow, and delicate in color.

It was incense made from agarwood.

Many people might not have heard of agarwood. Even many rich people had no access to the stuff.

Agarwoods were the best of the best among incense. In ancient times, they were called agar. In ancient times, only the royal family could use it. Since the Han Dynasty, the royal family had worshiped the heavens, prayed for blessings, worshiped Buddha, worshiped gods, and smoked incense indoors. Agarwood was the most important incense material.

In ancient China, three essential spices were needed in the bed of the emperor, namely: agarwood, musk, and ambergris.

The agarwood incense was at the head of these three. Moreover, often the agarwood of a 100d-year-old tree could be made into a grade for the emperor with only a little central part.

Now, the price of real agarwood on the market was ridiculously high. The most expensive one could reach 13,000 yuan per catty.

That's right. 13,000 yuan a catty.

But even so, there were still many rich people who would buy the agarwood and light them in their offices when they were working.

Rumor had it that Jack Ma liked to light agarwood incense in his office the most. Furthermore, it was rumored that he used a rare 20,000 yuan-per-catty agarwood incense made from an unknown number of years of agarwood.

Naturally, this was only a rumor. Whether it was true or not, he would only know if he went to ask Jack Ma.

In the game, the respawn rate of the agarwood tree was also low. Ever since that time, Qin Lin had not encountered another agarwood tree respawn.

However, since this tree seed had spawned, no matter how low the probability was, it would definitely spawn again.

Qin Lin took the two boxes of agarwood incense powder.

[Agarwood fragrance powder: Quality 2]

[This is a type of incense powder made from agarwood of Quality 2. After the incense burner is lit, it will emit a faint and elegant fragrance. Moreover, it has many effects: Rich fragrance +2, promotes the circulation of the body +2, calms the mind +2, opens the apertures of the Qi, relieves dizziness and fatigue!]

Chapter 215

From this, he could roughly understand why those rich people liked to light agarwood incense in the office.

He did not know if the agarwood incense used by Jack Ma had this effect, but his quality of agarwood incense was definitely a holy item in the office.

The aromatic richness +2 went without saying.

Calmness +2 could allow people to handle office matters better. They were not impatient and their efficiency doubled.

As for qi circulation +2, it was a divine item for staying up late.

In medical science, qi circulation referred to liver depression and stagnation, which meant that there was something wrong with the liver. Staying up late meant burning the liver.

The aperture opening here referred to the blockage of the cardiovascular acupoints and was also a problem that could easily be caused by staying up late.

There was naturally no need to talk about promoting body circulation +2. A healthy person's body circulation function was definitely very good.

Reducing dizziness and fatigue by +2 was what happened when an office worker used his brain for a long time.

For a specific group of people, this thing was expensive for a reason.

He had to keep these things in his office. One box for himself and one for Zhao Moqing.

Zhao Moqing was working harder than him now. Not only did she have to manage the finances, but she also carefully took care of some tedious matters and paid attention to the employees' situation.

It was a blessing for a boss like him to have such a virtuous wife.

However, there were too few of these things. The agarwood tree that was cut in the game was only made into two small boxes of incense. The total weight was less than 200 catties.

However, even if it was only 200 catties, it was priceless. Even if Jack Ma appeared to buy it for 20,000 yuan a catty, he would not sell it.

He and Zhao Moqing didn't even have enough for themselves.

Given the size of his and Zhao Moqing's office, it would take about 3 to 4 catties of incense to leave a fragrance in their office.

These two boxes were not enough for him and Zhao Moqing to use for long.

Qin Lin solemnly put away the two boxes of agarwood incense powder. Then, he touched the desk of Quality 1 rosewood and brought it out of the game to the minivan.

Then, he entered the game again and brought out the red sandalwood tea table and the 'Heaven Rewards the Diligent' plaque made of rosewood.

This plaque could still be hung in the office.

After moving everything out, Qin Lin started the car again and pulled them all to the villa.

When he reached the parking lot, he called Chen Dabei as usual and asked him to bring more people over to help move the things.

Chen Dabei was also very good at moving goods. When the boss asked him to bring more people, he directly brought a team of security guards over.

Qin Lin instructed directly, "Move all these things to the office area. Also, get Master Ma to hang that plaque on my office."

Master Ma was a woodworker specially hired by the villa. Sometimes, he could help the various departments make some additions.

Chen Dabei was the first to climb into the car. When he saw the high-end desk and tea table, he subconsciously asked, "Boss, this desk and tea table don't look cheap. What material are they made of?"

Qin Lin had no need to hide this. "They're all made from rosewood."

"Rosewood? Isn't that expensive?" Chen Dabei had heard of this thing before. Although he didn't know the details, he knew that it was valuable.

Seeing his security guards get into the car and start moving things, he hurriedly said, "Be careful. It's expensive. Don't knock it."

These security guards had all been discharged from the military and were trained in the army. They were not so weak that they would bump into each other when carrying such a small amount of things. They quickly moved everything out of the car.

After entering the villa, Chen Dabei led his men straight to the office.

This commotion naturally attracted Zhao Moqing and a few accountants in the office.

They all came out, curious.

"Qin Lin, is this a desk and tea table?" Zhao Moqing asked curiously, "Doesn't your office already have a desk and tea table?"

Qin Lin explained, "When I was customizing the signboard previously, the other party had some aged rosewood and red sandalwood, so I booked this desk, tea table, and plaque."

Zhao Moqing said in surprise, "Red sandalwood and rosewood? That must cost a lot of money, right? I heard that these two types of wood are very expensive."

Qin Lin nodded and said, "It's a little expensive. The money from the villa might have to be transferred to my account first."

"More than two million?" Zhao Moqing was obviously shocked by the price. A table, a tea table, and three plaques, and this two million yuan was gone?

She immediately snorted. "You're willing to buy this for more than two million yuan. What a spendthrift."

However, after saying that, she did not say anything else. After all, Qinglin Villa was already very famous for its development and was about to apply for a 4A scenic spot.

Moreover, there was a food company and he had taken over the winery. As the chairman, Qin Lin's office had to be more high-end. After all, he was a representative. In the future, he would definitely receive rich people like Mr. Chen and Mr. Ma.

"This is the signboard?" Zhao Moqing looked at the signboard that the three security guards were holding. When she saw the shape of the signboard and the words "Qinglin Villa" on it, she was immediately surprised. "This handwriting is too good. I feel like I'm admiring art."

She had seen countless signs since she was young. The shops on the street, the company signs in the metropolis. But she had never thought that a sign could be made so grandly, as if it were a work of art.

Qin Lin smiled and said, "These are the words that Mr. Chen helped find for a calligraphy master. The other party is the vice president of Min Province's Calligraphy Association."

"No wonder the words are so lively." Zhao Moqing nodded. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, "Is this sign board also very expensive?"

Chapter 216

Qin Lin nodded and said, "These signs are also made of rosewood. The two signs in the villa cost hundreds of thousands of yuan. The sign of the winery is cheaper, about 70,000 yuan!"

"?" Zhao Moqing was stunned.

She suddenly felt that her husband was a little prodigal.

The desk and tea table were both made of rosewood. It was fine if they were expensive.

But even the signboard that was hung outside still cost hundreds of thousands. Wasn't he afraid of being targeted by thieves?

Chen Dabei suddenly felt immense pressure when he heard his boss's words.

A sign that cost hundreds of thousands? Was there anyone more of a spendthrift than his boss?

Chen Dabei immediately said to Zhao Moqing, "Boss, I want to apply for funds to increase the surveillance cameras and build two new security guard booths."

Zhao Moqing nodded and said, "I'll transfer the funds to the security department later."

Although her husband was fooling around, the signboard had already been made. It couldn't be covered in dust and had to be hung up. However, this safety measure had to be taken.

Besides, putting up this kind of sign removed the fear of being remembered. It wasn't without its benefits. At the very least, it could give tourists another hot spot.

Then, Chen Dabei led his men to move the rosewood desk and the red sandalwood tea table into Qin Lin's office. The woodworker was also called over to hang the plaque for that day's salary.

The tea table and desk were soon set up as well, and the original computer and belongings moved to the rosewood desk.

It had to be said that after knowing the price of the desk and tea table, the entire office felt inexplicably elevated.

However, Qin Lin looked at the rosewood desk and the red sandalwood tea table and felt that there were still some chairs missing.

This had to be a package.

Next, if Mount Notre Dame refreshed rosewood or red sandalwood, he would arrange it first.

In the evening, Gao Yaoyao delivered a package to his office. "Boss, this is your delivery."

"Yes." Qin Lin's eyes lit up when he looked at the package. He knew that it was the incense burner he had ordered online. It was not cheap.

This was to be used with the agarwood incense powder. The lid was opened, and some of the powder was put in and lit. The lid was closed, and a delicate fragrance would quickly drift away with the wisps of smoke that floated up.

After Gao Yaoyao left, Qin Lin opened the package. There were two incense burners inside. He picked one up and placed it on the shelf beside him. Then, he picked up the other and took out a box of agarwood incense powder from the drawer before walking to Zhao Moqing's office.

Inside, Zhao Moqing was reading seriously in front of her computer.

"What are you looking at?" Qin Lin stepped forward and smiled.

Zhao Moqing snorted. "Isn't it all because of you? Chen Dabei was so anxious that he wrote a funding application. I immediately approved it for him. Otherwise, who would feel at ease if that signboard was hung up?"

When Qin Lin heard this, he could only admit that he had not thought it through. "I know you've worked hard, so I prepared a gift for you."

"What gift?" Zhao Moqing asked curiously.

"Good stuff." Qin Lin placed the incense burner and agarwood incense powder on Zhao Moqing's table.

"Incense?" Zhao Moqing asked in surprise.

"This isn't just any incense," Qin Lin said as he opened the box of agarwood incense powder. Then he opened the incense burner and placed a little inside before lighting it and putting the lid back on.

In an instant, wisps of white smoke floated up from the incense burner.

However, in a short period of time, a very pleasant fragrance spread throughout the office.

Zhao Moqing smelled the fragrance. At first, it smelled good, but after a while, shock appeared on her face

Chapter 217

After the agarwood incense was lit, a pleasant fragrance spread through the office.

Zhao Moqing slowly felt comfortable in that fragrance.

She was already mentally exhausted after a busy day. Her mind was heavy, but this fatigue was quickly disappearing. She slowly felt refreshed.

This feeling was really very wonderful.

She immediately realized that it was the incense. "What incense is this?" she asked in surprise.

Qin Lin explained, "It's incense powder made from agarwood. Moreover, this is a top-notch treasure. In ancient times, only the royal family could use it. Now, only people like Ma Yun can use it."

Naturally, it was one thing for Ma Yun to be able to use it. It was another thing for her to be able to buy it all the way to this level. After all, even Ma Yun might run out of such top-grade treasures.

Zhao Moqing was even more surprised. "I can use this incense in my office? Doesn't that mean I get the same treatment as Ma Yun?"

Qin Lin smiled and said, "Your treatment is better than Ma Yun's. Ma Yun can't buy this kind."

If he didn't sell anything produced by the game, no one would be able to use it.

As a financial officer, Zhao Moqing was most concerned about the price. She asked, "Then this agarwood incense powder should be very expensive, right?"

Qin Lin didn't hide anything. "Top-grade treasures on the market cost 20,000 yuan per catty. The other grades depend on the quality. The price is different. It usually costs 13,000 yuan per catty."

Zhao Moqing opened her mouth in shock. "20,000 yuan per catty? How much does this box cost? I'm not Ma Yun. Why would I need such an expensive thing?"

Qin Lin pulled Zhao Moqing's delicate hand over. "But in my heart, you're the most precious. As long as this incense is useful, I'll buy it for you no matter how expensive it is."

"Hmph!" Zhao Moqing snorted proudly. Any woman would be touched by such sweet words.

She couldn't help but kiss Qin Lin on the cheek.

Compared to Qin Lin's intentions, there was no need for her to worry about the price.

Her husband was willing to spend money for her. As a woman, she should be happy.

"You ambushed me?" Qin Lin smiled. He hugged Zhao Moqing, wanting to take revenge for her sneak attack. Unexpectedly, just as he hugged Zhao Moqing, there was a knock on the door.

Zhao Moqing hurriedly gestured for Qin Lin to let go of her.

Qin Lin touched his lips with his finger.

Zhao Moqing obviously understood. She reached out and pinched his waist before kissing him on the mouth.

Only then did Qin Lin let go of Zhao Moqing in satisfaction. After she sat down, she said to the outside, "Come in."

A moment later, a finance officer came in with the file.

Zhao Moqing asked, "Xiao Xin, has the food company finished checking the accounts last month?"

"Yes, Lady Boss." Xiao Xin came in. When she saw Qin Lin, she immediately greeted him respectfully, "Boss!"

Qin Lin also nodded at the other party.

Seeing that Zhao Moqing was going to be busy, she tactfully left Zhao Moqing's office and closed the door.

"Boss, what did you order in your office? It smells so good. It smells very comfortable," Xiao Xin asked curiously.

"It's the agarwood incense. Qin Lin specially bought it for me." Zhao Moqing didn't hide anything and explained before looking at the document that Xiao Xin had sent in.

Xiao Xin kept this in mind.

Not only did the fragrance smell comfortable, but it also seemed to relieve fatigue. She could clearly feel it.

She didn't know that lighting incense had such an effect. She planned to buy some later.

A moment later, Zhao Moqing also signed the document. "Xiao Xin, thank you for your hard work. There's no problem with the data."

After Xiao Xin left Zhao Moqing's office, she returned to their finance office.

She sat in front of the computer and started searching for agarwood incense.

Even if it was a little expensive, she had to buy some of such fragrant incense. After all, Qinglin Villa's salary was very high, and they even had bonuses and benefits. They even dared to buy some things that they could not bear to buy in the past.

After searching for the word agarwood, items popped up.

The first and second items were not incense powder but sticks of incense. The two items were marked with a box of 80 yuan and 45 yuan respectively.

She could hardly believe the price.

Was the incense that the lady boss ordered so cheap? But that fragrance was really nice.

She was dumbfounded by the prices of the goods.

The third was a small bracelet, priced at 153,240 yuan.

Over 150,000 yuan for an agarwood bracelet?

But that wasn't the most shocking thing. When she saw the fourth item, her eyes widened. The agarwood bracelet cost 1,215,680 yuan.

Over 1.2 million yuan?

She almost thought she was mistaken. She counted carefully again.

As she scrolled down, she finally saw a few links to agarwood incense powder. There was also a box of 50g for just over 50 yuan and 300 yuan.

But what did that mean when another box of 657,650 yuan suddenly appeared?

Was that the wrong price, or a black-hearted businessman?

How could the price of the same thing be so different!?

When she saw that the two items were actually from the same shop and that they were both paid by 0 people, she firmly believed that this was the wrong price.

The staff of this shop was too careless.

Therefore, she happily bought a box that cost a little more than 300 yuan. Then, she began to look forward to it.

She would light it in the office and share it with the other girls.

But she obviously didn't know that it wasn't the price that was wrong. It was that she had bought only incense made from artificially cultivated agarwood.

0 people had paid because it was impossible for anyone to pay online for goods worth hundreds of thousands or millions. That was just an introduction for people to see. The transactions were all done in private.

Chapter 218

Time slipped away quickly. The next afternoon, Xiao Xin received a call from the courier. The incense she had bought had arrived.

Xiao Xin ran to the security booth at the entrance of the villa to get the package.

The express delivery that their employees bought online would not enter the villa. It was usually placed at the entrance security booth.

After receiving the package, Xiao Xin couldn't wait to return to the finance office. As soon as she entered, she heard the other two finance girls discussing something.

"The incense ordered from the lady boss's office smells wonderful."

"That's right. And there's something very comforting about it. I wonder what incense she ordered."

When Xiao Xin heard their words, she smiled proudly and said, "I know. The lady boss ordered agarwood incense. The box I bought online just arrived. I'll let you two girls share it."

This made the other two finance girls lean over curiously.

Xiao Xin opened the package with a smile and took out the incense inside.

She had also bought an incense burner, but it hadn't arrived yet, so now she could only take a small bottle, take out a bit of incense powder carefully, put it in a cup, and light it.

A moment later, wisps of white smoke floated up from the cup.

Xiao Xin's pretty face lit up with anticipation.

However, the two finance sisters immediately looked at Xiao Xin in confusion. As the agarwood incense was lit, a smell indeed wafted out. However, it was not pleasant incense from the boss's office at all. Instead, it was a little like the incense that was lit in the temple for a few cents.

Xiao Xin was also a little dumbfounded. This was completely different from what she had expected. It seemed that it was not only the fragrance, but the one she had bought did not feel very comfortable either.

A finance lady asked in confusion, "Xiao Xin, are you sure that the one you bought is the same as the lady boss's?"

Another finance lady also said, "That's right. Your incense doesn't even have the same fragrance."

"The lady boss told me it's agarwood incense. I bought this too." The anticipation in Xiao Xin's heart instantly disappeared and turned into frustration. "This shop is actually selling fake goods. I want to complain. This is more than 300 yuan."

…

In the office.

Qin Lin's attention was already focused on the game on the screen in his mind. The game character was swinging his ax and chopping at a tree.

As the tree shook and fell, several more sections of wood material appeared on the ground.

[Congratulations on obtaining a pine wood material!]

[…]

This was another tree of little value.

Qin Lin was helpless.

Today's luck seemed to be a little bad. It was all ordinary trees.

The key was that the location of the trees was still fixed. If he did not cut them down, this location would not refresh.

Now there was only one left.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to continue to the last respawn point.

If the last tree had not been harvested, today would be another game of luck and wasting time.

Still, one's luck couldn't last forever.

[A sandalwood tree has been found. Do you wish to cut it!]

Seeing the notification, Qin Lin sighed silently.

After harvesting the rosewood, red sandalwood, and agarwood, this sandalwood was already inferior enough in his eyes.

Sandalwood wasn't the same as rosewood. In fact, it wasn't even the same tree species. Most rosewood could be used to forge value, carve, and the like. Sandalwood was a kind of incense wood that served as an incense material. Most of it was used to make incense and incense powder.

However, the same incense powder cost more than 13,000 yuan a catty. The cheaper one on the market was only 2 yuan a gram. The most expensive one was only 3 yuan a gram, which was about 1,500 yuan a catty. There was no comparison at all.

Naturally, agarwood incense was meant to precipitate agarwood. There wasn't much in an incense tree. It depended on luck.

Sandalwood, on the other hand, could be used to make incense.

Qin Lin immediately controlled his game character to hack at the sandalwood tree.

Although it couldn't be compared to the agarwood, the red sandalwood, or the rosewood, it was still better to find a tree of some value, right?

Instantly, the sandalwood fell, turning into 6 pieces of wood material.

[Congratulations on obtaining an ordinary sandalwood!]

[Congratulations on obtaining an ordinary sandalwood!]

[Congratulations on obtaining a Quality 1 sandalwood!]

[Congratulations on obtaining a Quality 1 sandalwood!]

[Congratulations on obtaining a Quality 1 sandalwood!]

[Congratulations on obtaining a Quality 2 sandalwood!]

Qin Lin saw the six sets of wood materials he had obtained. This was a huge drop, right?

Wouldn't it be nice if this one was an agarwood tree?

Even if it was rosewood or red sandalwood, he would have the materials for his office chair.

But it was the sandalwood tree.

Now that he had everything, he had to see what happened. He stood up and locked the office. With a thought, he entered the game.

However, when Qin Lin saw the attributes of the sandalwood, his eyes lit up. It should be said that this didn't seem too bad.

[Sandalwood: Quality 1]

[This is a special incense wood. It's an excellent material for making incense. It has a special effect when made into incense: insect repellent +1, odor repellent +1, sleep enhancement +1, peace of mind +1.]

Apparently, this sandalwood had the same calming properties as the agarwood.

There was no need to mention the insect repellent and the repellent odor. That was the basic effect of sandalwood incense.

However, the effect of +1 sleep enhancement was definitely a blessing for many insomniacs.

The smell of sandalwood incense in the world was also said to be helpful for sleep, but similarly, this was contradicted by several experts who conducted a series of scientific experiments to prove that sandalwood was ineffective.

Chapter 219

Indeed, through experimentation, these experts had proved that most sandalwood incense in the world had no sleep-aiding effect.

These experts had done something for everyone. At least none of the insomniacs had run off to buy sandalwood in an attempt to help them sleep.

However, someone later revealed that among these experts, two of them had become the developers of a certain medicine called "Divine Granule". This was intriguing.

Now, Qin Lin saw that the sandalwood produced by the system indeed had the attribute of increasing sleep. In other words, sandalwood was indeed beneficial to sleep in reality. Otherwise, this additional attribute wouldn't have appeared in the system.

This might be because sandalwood wasn't really completely ineffective against sleep. It was only because most of the sandalwood on the market was too low-level or simply fake that it wasn't effective. Then the experts took advantage of the opportunity.

After all, the news had reported that some people made sandalwood incense by mixing it with other wood. They were very black-hearted.

Qin Lin then looked at the Quality 2 sandalwood.

[Sandalwood: Quality 2]

[This is a special incense wood. It's an excellent material for making incense. It has a special effect when made into incense: insect repellent +1, odor repellent +1, sleep gain +2, peace of mind +1.]

The other attributes of the sandalwood of Quality 2 did not increase, and the attribute that increased sleep became +2.

"That's valuable." Qin Lin's eyes lit up. A sandalwood incense with the attribute of +2 sleep enhancement was worth 1,500 yuan per catty.

The pain of insomnia should be second only to hemorrhoids, right? Even the pain of insomnia was better than hemorrhoids.

Only someone with real long-term insomnia would know that kind of pain.

He tossed and turned. He was clearly sleepy, but his mind was abnormally clear. He felt that he could still perform the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

He counted the sheep, but the more he counted, the more awake he became. In the end, he completely forgot that he had to sleep.

Listening to light music?

Some people could fall asleep listening to music, but those who had been suffering from insomnia for a long time were left with lingering sounds. They wanted more and were no longer sleepy.

The pain was directly nerve-racking.

According to his previous estimations, the +1 attribute would be very effective. The value of this sandalwood incense would definitely increase greatly.

At the thought of this, Qin Lin exited the game and controlled his game character to head to the machine experience center to process sandalwood.

The incense wasn't made according to a real-life blueprint. It was something that could be made on the processing machine, just as the silk-threaded machine itself had a silk-stocking style. Even the cartoon pattern showed the temptation.

Unfortunately, he did not know where to find the threads yet.

[Do you wish to make incense powder from sandalwood?]

Of course!

[Please select the amount of incense powder!]

It was still 100g.

The processing machine consumed a Quality 1 sandalwood and began to operate.

A moment later, the notification of obtaining sandalwood incense appeared in Qin Lin's mind:

[Congratulations on obtaining Quality 1 sandalwood incense, 100g x 100!]

Qin Lin's eyes lit up when he saw the notification.

An agarwood tree only got two boxes of 100g agarwood incense powder. This one Quality 1 sandalwood was already 100 boxes.

According to this calculation, the expensive sandalwood incense cost 3 yuan per gram, which was also 30,000 yuan. Moreover, this Quality 1 had the attribute of increasing sleep by 1. It was definitely not just 3 yuan per gram. Even if it was 1 yuan per gram, someone would buy it for 1,000 yuan per box.

[Congratulations on obtaining Quality 1 sandalwood incense, 100g x 100!]

…

[Congratulations on obtaining Quality 2 sandalwood incense 100g x 100!]

In the end, three sets of Quality 1 sandalwood yielded 300 boxes of 100g sandalwood incense, and one set of Quality 2 sandalwood yielded 100 boxes of 100g sandalwood incense.

With the enhancement of this quantity and the attribute of increasing sleep, these sandalwood incense sticks seemed to be quite valuable.

Qin Lin brought the sandalwood back to the ranch and directly exited the game with a box of Quality 2 sandalwood incense. He had to experiment with the effects of the sandalwood incense.

After Zhao Moqing's father became a senior in high school, he could not sleep because of the pressure. He could show his filial piety and let his father-in-law be a guinea pig.

Qin Lin opened the office door and saw Zhao Moqing looking for him. "Qin Lin, there's something I need to discuss with you first."

Qin Lin asked in confusion, "What's so urgent?"

Zhao Moqing frowned and said, "Isn't it all your fault? It's going to be listed. You said that you wanted to organize an event, and there has to be a prize for this event. But you got so many good things from the previous events, so the items for this event can't be too bad, right?"

"The melon king and Supreme Set prizes in front of you have already pulled the event specifications of Qinglin Villa to a very high level. Now, there are many fans leaving comments on the official account looking forward to our next event."

"The standard will drop immediately if we use ordinary items as prizes for this event. The contrast will definitely be huge."

"But since it's a listing, the event is secondary. We can't summon troops to seize the master. This event can only be considered a benefit, so the prizes can't be too heavy!"

"That's a little difficult."

When Qin Lin heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "I thought it was something urgent. The rewards and benefits are all trivial. Leave it to me."

Hearing Zhao Moqing's words, he even had a complete plan in his mind. Anyway, there were many good things and he was willful.

Chapter 220

To the young people, the nightlife in a small city like Youcheng County was no less exciting than in a big city.

However, for the third-year students, they did not feel happy at night at all. Even though it was already cold and it was almost the new year, they still had to attend evening self-study and could not go home before nine o'clock.

Year 3 was the final stage of the sprint, and also the final sprint of 12 years.

When Qin Lin drove to Youcheng County First Middle School to deliver sandalwood incense powder to Zhao Xianhong, the students who had finished their evening self-study had already run out excitedly.

His father-in-law was also one of those with high insomnia.

It was not easy to be a high school teacher, and it was even harder to be a teacher in Year 3. It was the hardest to be a Year 3 dean.

Not only did the Year 3s have to face the most serious age of adolescent rebellion, but it was also the year where students had more melodramatic accidents.

In addition to these, the Year 3 dean also had to bear the problem of the enrollment rate.

Therefore, many Year 3 deans were worried, unable to sleep, and lost their hair. Over time, many Year 3 deans became bald from worrying about their students and even gave some rebellious students Mediterranean nicknames.

His father-in-law had already begun to lose sleep. He should be entering the hair loss stage soon. Therefore, this sandalwood powder came at a good time. It might prevent the crisis of him becoming bald.

In the Year 3 office of Youcheng County First Middle School, he said to the teachers inside with a smile, "Everyone, go back early when you're done. I'll be leaving first."

A female teacher asked with a smile, "Chief Zhao, you're so happy today. Something good has happened."

"You can tell? My son-in-law and daughter are waiting for me outside." Zhao Xianhong was all smiles as he strode out of the office.

The teachers in the office smiled knowingly at this.

Everyone naturally knew about Chief Zhao's daughter. She had studied in Youcheng County First High in high school, and many people in the office had taught her.

It was this son-in-law of Chief Zhao that made them very curious. Chief Zhao had been mentioning this son-in-law a lot recently. Every time, he would be full of smiles. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with this son-in-law.

However, Section Chief Zhao was very good at keeping secrets. Everyone only knew that his son-in-law used to be a student of First Middle School.

Zhao Xianhong was naturally satisfied with his son-in-law, Qin Lin. After all, he was capable. He had such a big career and had a good temper. He was also good to his daughter and was very filial to the couple.

This was definitely the model of a son-in-law that all parents wanted.

Zhao Xianhong walked out of the school gate and immediately walked over when he saw Qin Lin's car.

Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing also hurriedly went down and greeted Zhao Xianhong.

"Dad!"

"Dad!"

Zhao Xianhong nodded at the two of them and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of picking me up from school today?"

"Dad, Qin Lin knows that you can't sleep, so he specially sent you some incense to help you sleep," Zhao Moqing said happily.

What women were most afraid of was that after they had a husband, they would have to separate their families from their in-laws and reduce their interactions.

But she had no such worries at all.

Her mother had become best friends with her mother-in-law. From time to time, they would meet to shop.

Qin Lin was also filial to her parents. The two families were harmonious and beautiful. How nice.

Sometimes she felt like the happiest woman in the world.

When Zhao Xianhong heard his daughter's words, he felt even happier. This son-in-law was really good. However, he still said, "Qin Lin, you're busy with your own business now. You don't have to come all the way here for me."

Qin Lin smiled and said, "Dad, it's only right. It's cold outside. Let's send you home first."

"Yes." Zhao Xianhong nodded.

They got in, closed the car door, and started the car.

Qin Lin drove Zhao Xianhong to Ming Yuan District in the East City. Then, he handed the two sandalwood incense sticks and an incense burner to Zhao Xianhong. "Dad, this is sandalwood incense powder that helps with sleep. Just light a little every night."

Zhao Xianhong held the incense in his hand and smiled.

Whether the incense helped him sleep or not was no longer important to him. His son-in-law's intentions were the most important.

After Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing left, he hummed happily as he walked towards the building. When he returned home, his wife was watching television in the hall.

The TV footage showed them on a bus. A man and woman were shouting, 'There's a bomb!' when the bus exploded.

But in the next moment, the young man and woman did not die. Instead, they suddenly woke up from the bus seat with shock on their faces.

"You're back?" Chen Xiao stood up when she saw her husband return.

"What kind of show is this?" Zhao Xianhong asked as he put down the incense burner.

"It's a new drama that just came out. There's a bomb on the bus. The male and female lead have been blown up several times, and they can be revived every time." As Chen Xiao spoke, he went to the side to pour a cup of water for Zhao Xianhong. Then, he took out a packet of prescription medicine for insomnia. "Take the medicine first, then go take a shower and lie down."

The quality of her husband's sleep had been decreasing. Her heart ached every night as he tossed and turned.

Now, he could only rely on medicine for treatment and lie down as soon as he came back from the shower to ensure that he would have the energy to go to school the next day.

Zhao Xianhong waved his hand and picked up the incense that Qin Lin had given him. "I won't take any medicine today. Qin Lin gave me some incense to help me sleep. I'll go take a shower first. Light the incense in the room first."

With that he went into the bedroom and took his clothes into the bathroom.

Chapter 221

Chen Xiao looked at the incense burner in his hand and knew that it was sent by Qin Lin. He entered the room immediately and lit the incense.

She had the same thought as Zhao Xianhong. Regardless of whether this thing was effective or not, her son-in-law's intentions were the most important. What her son-in-law gave her was precious.

After lighting the incense, she left the bedroom and closed the door. She planned to finish the episode in the hall.

Although he did not understand why the female lead could be resurrected after being blown up by a bomb in the bus, it looked quite interesting.

Zhao Xianhong quickly came out of the shower. There was already a faint fragrance in the room.

He lay down on the bed as usual. Insomnia victims had to stay awake the next day and could only lie down early. After tossing and turning for two or three hours, he could still guarantee to fall asleep around 12 AM.

After Zhao Xianhong lay down, he realized that something was different today. In the past, he would be frustrated when he couldn't sleep, but today, his heart was especially calm without a trace of frustration. This made him feel magical.

Zhao Xianhong naturally did not know that this was the effect of sandalwood incense. As he was thinking, he felt sleepy and actually yawned.

In the hall.

Chen Xiao also finished watching the episode very quickly. Then, she turned off the television and walked to the bedroom. At this time, her husband should be tossing and turning. He wouldn't be able to fall asleep until one o'clock.

But when the door opened, she froze. Her husband was snoring on the bed, obviously sound asleep.

"So fast today?" Chen Xiao was surprised. Could the incense given by her son-in-law really help him sleep? But wasn't the effect too strong?

As Chen Xiao thought about it, she realized that she was also feeling sleepy and yawned slightly.

Feeling like she could fall asleep any time she wanted to, she went into the bathroom to shower.

…

The next day.

Qin Lin had just finished breakfast when he received a call from Zhao Xianhong.

He guessed what it was about and immediately picked up. "Dad, how's the incense?"

Zhao Xianhong's happy voice sounded. "Qin Lin, the incense you sent is too magical. I haven't slept so well in a long time. I was sleepy the moment I lay down last night. I don't even know when I fell asleep. Qin Lin, thank you so much."

"Dad, don't thank me. This is what I should do." Qin Lin smiled when he heard the effects of the sandalwood incense.

This sleep enhancement +2 was obviously very powerful.

No matter how much the sandalwood incense outside could be sold for, as long as it was targeted at people with insomnia, its value would definitely increase greatly.

Qin Lin sent today's items to the villa. After Chen Dabei and his men moved the items from the car to the villa, he entered the villa and headed to the office.

As soon as he arrived at the office, he saw Xiao Luo (Chapter 151) walking out with two security guards carrying a sign wrapped in red silk.

That sign was the sign of Qinglin Winery.

"Boss." When Xiao Luo saw Qin Lin come out, he hurriedly said respectfully, "The lady boss called and asked us to bring this sign to the winery to hang it up."

Qin Lin nodded and said, "Go. Be careful on the way. Don't touch the sign."

"Don't worry, Boss. Nothing will go wrong," Xiao Luo promised immediately.

After Xiao Luo left with his men, Qin Lin passed by an empty office and heard Zhao Moqing's voice coming from inside. "Yaoyao, I didn't expect you to be so smart. Set up the other signboard too."

Qin Lin walked in and saw Gao Yaoyao holding a piece of red silk and arranging it on a 'Qinglin Villa' signboard.

Since there was a new signboard, they naturally had to hang some red silk to express their joy.

When Zhao Moqing saw Qin Lin enter, he immediately asked, "Qin Lin, Mom asked you to choose an auspicious day. Two days later is the best. It's suitable for opening and listing. Therefore, I've already asked everyone to prepare for the listing event the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, just arrange it." Qin Lin nodded.

Zhao Moqing continued, "When the time comes, should we invite Chief Chen and those suppliers? Also, whether Mr. Chen and Mr. Li want to invite you or not has to be decided."

The listing ceremony was a festive day. Naturally, they had to invite people close to them, such as Uncle Ergen, Uncle Dashan, and the others.

People like Qin Ren, Hu Fei, Zhang Shi, and Lin Feng who had business dealings with the villa would definitely be invited.

Needless to say, Chief Chen was in charge of the tourism industry.

As for Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen, it would be unreasonable not to invite them. They definitely had to be informed. On the other hand, Chen Fengwu, the calligraphy master that Chen Shengfei had helped find, hoped that Chen Shengfei could help.

After all, the signboard was made with the other party's calligraphy. Firstly, the etiquette was in place. Secondly, the master and the signboard could take a photo. Perhaps there would really be a good story.

Qin Lin told Zhao Moqing his thoughts. Then, he and Zhao Moqing worked together. Zhao Moqing and his mother called their relatives and friends to inform them.

He took out his phone and invited the others, including Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen. Everyone obviously gave him face and said that they would definitely be there the day after tomorrow.

Chen Shengfei even promised to invite his uncle, Master Chen Fengwu.

In the afternoon, Zhao Moqing went to Qin Lin's office. "Qin Lin, have you thought about the prizes and benefits for the listing? I still have to film a video to promote it the night before."

Qin Lin smiled and said, "I've already thought about it. There's no need to draw the prizes and benefits for the day. As long as the tourists spend 100 yuan at the villa, they can receive them for free. Moreover, there are three types of benefits…"

Chapter 222

Chen Xiao looked at the incense burner in his hand and knew that it was sent by Qin Lin. He entered the room immediately and lit the incense.

She had the same thought as Zhao Xianhong. Regardless of whether this thing was effective or not, her son-in-law's intentions were the most important. What her son-in-law gave her was precious.

Zhao Xianhong's happy voice sounded. "Qin Lin, the incense you sent is too magical. I haven't slept so well in a long time. I was sleepy the moment I lay down last night. I don't even know when I fell asleep. Qin Lin, thank you so much."

Chapter 223

Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen walked to the desk and observed it carefully. They realized that this desk was really a high-grade rosewood.

It was not that they were ignorant, but that rosewood and red sandalwood were rare collectible-grade wood. Moreover, the better the quality, the fewer the high-grade ones.

As for the top-grade ones, they were completely rare. They were almost rare, and the people who owned them hid them tightly and would not take them out at all.

Many people collected such furniture. High-grade furniture could be slowly assembled into a set. Top-grade rare furniture could only be obtained by luck.

Otherwise, when that person from the Wang family was still the richest man in the world, he wouldn't have specially brought people to take photos of the mahogany furniture at home in that interview for "The Day of a Wealthy Man"?

That was because that set of furniture was made of top-notch rosewood. Very few people in the country could find top-notch rosewood to make a complete set of furniture.

With that complete set of furniture, even the richest man would definitely show off, much less someone who liked to collect such wooden furniture.

There was also a complete set of top-notch rosewood furniture in the corporation that Ma Yun had created. It represented nobility.

It was said that the rosewood cabinet that stood in the corner with extremely fine and complicated workmanship was even hand-made by the old carpenter who hired Engineer Su according to the cabinets in Empress Dowager Cixi's palace. This cabinet alone cost five million yuan.

Although five million yuan was nothing to rich people like them, it was really not something that could be bought with just five million yuan.

The price was there. There was no such thing in the market.

It was said that one could buy anything with money, even emotions. However, those were only inferior things.

When something really reached a certain level, even money could not buy it.

Although Boss Qin's high-grade rosewood desk and red sandalwood tea table were inferior to the top-notch ones of the two former richest men, they were still very rare.

It was a pity that there were only two large pieces, not the full set. Otherwise, even if it was a set of high-grade furniture, it would be an astonishing achievement for the rich who liked such furniture.

"Qin Lin, I really realize that you always have unexpected surprises. You always have good things." Ma Liewen sighed. He took the oolong tea and sat at the tea table again. "However, you don't have any tea, right? You'll have to count on me now. I love tea and have a collection of good tea leaves."

Ma Liewen felt rather proud.

After all, it was inevitable to be proud of something he liked.

Chen Shengfei was still looking at the rosewood desk. He tried to ask, "Qin Lin, do you have any channels in this area? If you can help me ask around, I also want some rosewood furniture at home, but nothing big."

When Qin Lin heard this, he smiled and said, "Old Chen, I'll help you keep an eye on this. If there's any news, I'll inform you."

Although the refresh of trees in the game was random, rosewood would definitely refresh again in the future. Life was long, and there was still a lot of time.

It wouldn't be difficult for him to get a complete set of rosewood furniture of Quality 2 or above. Wouldn't that be better than two of the former richest men?

Since Chen Shengfei liked this kind of furniture, he would find an opportunity to get him a set when the trees were refreshed in the future. However, in order to avoid others from probing, he had to leave it in the game for a while.

It was better to make it old-fashioned until before the founding of the state.

Then it would become an antique. If others asked, it was still an old item. If they saw it in the market, they would buy it.

"Hey, Qin Lin, do you play with incense too?" Chen Shengfei walked to the tea table and saw the incense sticks and incense burner on the shelf beside the tea table. "Your office is getting better and better. There's no brand name for this incense, so it should be a very precious custom-made one, right?"

It was no wonder he thought so. Qin Lin had too many good things.

From the first time he came to eat wild goods, there were different kinds of good things every time he came. Now, Qin Lin felt that anything he saw might be good.

Besides, when it came to incense, the really high-end ones were custom-made. And there weren't a lot of them, especially the kind of agarwood that cost 13,000 yuan a gram.

That kind of thing was even harder to come by than the Xiangshui Tribute Rice. He'd only gotten his hands on it a couple of times, but he had to admit that when the agarwood incense was lit in the office, it was really unobstructed and very effective.

Chen Shengfei opened the incense box curiously and smelled the familiar fragrance emitted by the powder inside. He was surprised again. "This is… agarwood?"

He could tell. No wonder this fragrance was so familiar.

Qin Lin said in surprise, "Old Chen, you can tell?"

Chen Shengfei explained, "I've bought agarwood incense a few times. I didn't expect to see this incense here today."

Now Ma Liewen was intrigued. "Let's light some."

Although he did not use incense, he had heard from Chen Shengfei that Old Chen was bragging back then.

Chen Shengfei looked at Qin Lin and asked. It was fine to take a look at such things, but it would be impolite to do it privately.

"Go ahead!" Qin Lin nodded.

Chen Shengfei immediately became excited. He immediately took the incense burner and skillfully operated it. It could be seen that he often used incense.

He skillfully lit the incense and covered the incense burner. After a while, white smoke curled up, accompanied by a faint and pleasant fragrance.

"Wow, this smell is as good as you said, Old Chen." Ma Liewen let out a surprised sound after a moment. "Besides, I feel strangely refreshed. Old Chen, it seems that this thing you're using is pretty useful."

Chapter 224

"Why else do you think I bought those?" Chen Shengfei replied angrily. Then, he sighed with emotion. "However, Qin Lin's agarwood incense is of a higher grade than the one I bought. Not only is it fragrant, but it also has an effect. You should have already felt it."

Master Chen Fengwu also felt the effect of the agarwood incense.

Although he and Chen Shengfei had only come by car, they were still very tired. After the incense was lit, the fatigue quickly disappeared.

At his age, he could boast that he was knowledgeable, but he could not believe that he had not experienced such a magical incense personally.

"Qin Lin, do you have a way to get this agarwood Incense?" Chen Shengfei asked expectantly.

"Old Chen, this really depends on luck. I might not have it even if I wanted it myself." Qin Lin knew what Chen Shengfei meant, but he could only tell the truth.

The refresh rate of this agarwood tree was too low. Ever since it had been refreshed previously, it had yet to be refreshed. If they were unlucky and did not refresh this thing for a month or two, he and Zhao Moqing would be out of stock.

"Sigh." Chen Shengfei sighed and did not continue asking. This was indeed very rare.

"The tea is ready. Try my collection of oolong tea." At this moment, Ma Liewen also called for everyone to sit down. He only loved tea. This oolong tea was worth a few thousand yuan.

Boss Qin had many good things, but there were no good tea leaves.

Good tea leaves were not easy to come by.

Qin Lin also liked tea, but the tea he drank was ordinary tea. After taking two sips of the oolong tea, he felt that it was different from ordinary tea.

First, there was the fragrance of tea. The fragrance was very strong in the mouth, and there was a sweetness after bitterness. The sweetness was very evocative.

The reason why Northerners did not like to drink tea was actually because they could not stand the bitterness of tea. It was because they resisted and their hearts were in chaos. They could not taste the sweetness after the bitterness.

The taste of tea was the sweetness after the bitterness, as well as the process of slowly returning to blandness and fragrance.

There was a saying: When tasting tea, bitterness is its journey, fragrance is its gift, and returning to blandness is its nature.

Therefore, many people had different opinions when they tasted tea.

Some people drank tea as if they were tasting emotions. It was always difficult to pursue, but once they succeeded, it would be sweet. However, no matter how sweet it was, it would slowly return to normal as time passed. But when they were old, the sweetness of the past could be recalled carefully, like the fragrance of tea.

Naturally, some would say, how could there be such a metaphor? How many men and women could go from courting to growing old together?

But that was because they did not choose the right tea leaves. The tea leaves were all moldy and rotting, and they were still making them. Could tea like that be fragrant? Apart from the bitterness, there's nothing left but nausea.

Ma Liewen finished making a pot of tea and chatted as the time passed. In the blink of an eye, it was evening.

"Let's go to the hall and see what we're having for dinner." Qin Lin called out to Chen Shengfei and the others.

The three of them were invited to support him this time, so he was naturally in charge of entertaining them.

When he arrived at the original hall, he realized that Master Lin had already brought over the ingredients for dinner with an apprentice.

When Master Lin saw Qin Lin, he said, "Boss, the lady boss has already instructed that you have to entertain Mr. Chen and the others tonight. I came over in advance to prepare."

Qin Lin nodded.

Zhao Moqing was always so understanding. He would arrange many things for her.

He then said to Master Lin, "Master Lin, I'll help you later. I'll make the fish and eel."

"Yes, boss!" Master Lin nodded.

Li Kai suddenly appeared at the entrance of the backyard and shouted in surprise, "Brother Qin, are you cooking again tonight?"

"Mr. Li, you're here too?" Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen naturally knew Li Kai.

However, they were good friends with Li Qing and Li Kai's seniority was different. They were not very close.

Li Kai nodded at Chen Shengfei and said to Qin Lin with a smile, "Brother Qin, remember to call me when you eat."

Just as Li Qing had said, after eating Qin Lin's fish, Li Kai had been thinking about it.

With that, Li Kai walked back into the backyard.

Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen looked at each other. This person was indeed as jumpy and neurotic as the rumors said.

Wasn't it just a meal? And he made it sound like he was afraid of missing it.

Boss Qin's food is delicious, but he was from the Li family after all. There's no need for that, right?

"Boss Qin, why is this person here?" Chen Shengfei asked curiously.

Qin Lin explained, "There's a problem with the watermelon seeds in my backyard. Mr. Li, please help me take a look."

After Chen Shengfei, Ma Liewen, and Chen Fengwu sat down, Qin Lin asked Gao Yaoyao to send over some fruits and snacks before entering the kitchen with Master Lin.

After Chen Shengfei sat down, he looked at the hall and felt a little emotional. "When I first came here, I came in accidentally because my tire was broken. At that time, the villa was still in a panic and there weren't many tourists. Now, in such a short period of time, the villa is already so lively."

"When I entered this hall, I still felt that this hall wasn't at that level. It was far inferior to the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion. But now, I feel that the hall of the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion is far inferior to this."

Ma Liewen smiled and said, "Old Chen, it's a good thing that your tire broke at that time. Otherwise, we would have missed too many good things. We might still be eating those things from the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion and buying Li Fei's empty things."

As they chatted, Li Qing walked in. He was still wearing his apron and had obviously just come down from the winery.

When Chen Shengfei saw Li Qing, he immediately pulled him to sit down and asked curiously, "Li Qing, you haven't left since Old Ma and I left last time, right? What are you doing here in the villa?"

"Can't you smell it? I'm making wine," Li Qing said as he picked up a piece of watermelon and ate it.

"Wine?" Ma Liewen's eyes lit up. "It's not the Qinglin Medicine Wine, is it, Li Qing? You can't brew ordinary wine yourself."

"I want to brew the Qinglin Medicine Wine too. Do you think I have the chance?" Li Qing sighed and took two more bites of the watermelon before saying casually, "Boss Qin made 100 catties of Xiangshui Tribute Rice to brew wine."

"Making wine with the Xiangshui Tribute Rice?" Chen Shengfei was surprised.

Chen Fengwu was also a little uneasy.

He had eaten Xiangshui Tribute Rice at Chen Shengfei's place before and knew how rare it was. Rich people like Chen Shengfei could only get some occasionally.

But did someone actually want to use this kind of rice to make wine?

Ma Liewen was even more incredulous. "Good grief, I can't believe you guys would do something so extravagant. That's the Xiangshui Tribute Rice."

Li Qing said with an expression that said, "Let me tell you, this Xiangshui Tribute Rice is a luxury for us, but not for Boss Qin. For example, you can't buy it even if you have the money. However, someone from Xiangshui took the initiative to exchange the Xiangshui Tribute Rice for Qinglin Medicine Wine from Boss Qin. This is how the Xiangshui Tribute Rice for brewing wine came about."

"There's such a thing?" Ma Liewen was immediately taken aback, but it made sense when he thought about it. There were things that money couldn't buy, but it didn't say that equally precious things couldn't be exchanged.

In a certain small country, they could even change people, such as changing culture.

"Old Ma, could it be the same that time? We still thought that Qin Lin was deceived." Chen Shengfei suddenly said to Ma Liewen.

"I think so. At that time, Qin Lin also thought that the other party was a swindler." Ma Liewen also remembered that they had shared some of the Xiangshui Tribute Rice and brought it back. At first, they thought that Qin Lin could not have obtained that much Xiangshui Tribute Rice and thought that he had been deceived.

However, it was not that Qin Lin had been deceived, but that Li Fei's Xiangshui Tribute Rice was far inferior to Boss Qin's.

At that time, Qin Lin even said that he had taken it from a friend and thought that he had been deceived. Perhaps at that time, someone from Xiangshui knew that Boss Qin had medicinal wine and came to contact him.

When Li Qing heard what the two of them said, he roughly knew what was going on. The time the two of them mentioned must have been when Xiangshui found out about the medicinal wine from some unknown source. It was the first time they came to the house to interact and Boss Qin treated them as cheats.

"By the way, where's Boss Qin?" Li Qing asked.

Chen Shengfei explained, "In the kitchen. He said he'll help Master Lin make fish."

"He's cooking again?" Li Qing was pleasantly surprised and walked straight into the kitchen. Boss Qin had been cooking a little more frequently recently, which was a good thing.

Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen looked at each other.

Why did they have to be so shocked?

Chapter 225

Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen had not eaten Qin Lin's cooking yet, so they naturally did not know what Li Qing and Li Kai were looking forward to.

Not long after, dishes were served by Li Qing and a kitchen apprentice.

When Qin Lin came out with the last dish of braised meat, there were already more than ten dishes on the table.

Among them were three courses of fish and two courses of eel. He had made them with the system's culinary skills. They had the attributes of +3 delicacy, +3 texture, and +1 appetite.

Li Kai didn't even need anyone to call him. When all the dishes were served, he had already washed his hands and sat down at the table. "Brother Qin, the fish and oysters are ready. I've been craving them for days."

Li Qing took the bowls and chopsticks and distributed them to everyone. After sitting down, he said, "Fortunately, we came down in time today. Otherwise, we would have missed this meal."

As he spoke, he had already made himself a bowl of fish soup.

Li Kai ate in silence, not wanting to waste any more time.

This was the time to eat.

"The dishes are all here. Everyone, eat!" After Qin Lin sat down, he said to Chen Fengwu, who had come for the first time, "Master Chen, it's your first time here. Try our villa's dishes."

Chen Shengfei also explained, "Uncle, you should really try Qin Lin's food. It's much more delicious than the food in those hotels, restaurants, and restaurants."

Chen Fengwu was also looking forward to hearing Chen Shengfei say that. He picked up a piece of fish with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

The +3 taste, +3 texture, and +1 appetite of the fish made the master look incredulous.

How was this just more delicious? This taste was not comparable to those restaurants at all, okay?

He could not describe the delicacy.

Anyway, at his age, he had never eaten anything that tasted so good.

"Uncle, how is it? It's delicious, right?" Chen Shengfei knew what was going on from Master Chen's expression. He smiled and picked up a piece of braised meat for himself. Just as he started chewing, he realized that something was wrong. "Eh, why does this braised meat taste even better today? Is it my imagination?"

"I don't think you're imagining it," said Ma Liewen. "I think the fish is even more delicious today. It's a level stronger than before. It even reminds me of someone."

"Old Yang!" Chen Shengfei subconsciously said a name.

Ma Liewen nodded.

The Red Gate Feast was once famous in Ming City. They had eaten the Red Gate Feast before, so they naturally knew how delicious the dishes that Old Yang had carefully prepared for a long time and only opened once a year were.

Unfortunately, as Old Yang grew older, he no longer had the energy and stamina to hold a popular banquet. His few disciples did not learn well either. Even if they used the same materials and did the same thing, no one would buy it.

Old Yang's disciples didn't want to improve either. They had already gone to deal with low-end games and got some services like the Red Gate Feast for ordinary rich people or rich second-generation heirs.

Unfortunately, the Red Gate Feast was going to be lost in the open market.

The two of them never expected to be able to eat dishes that were comparable to the Red Gate Feast. They even felt that the taste and texture were slightly better.

The two of them looked at Li Qing and Li Kai, who were silently eating fish, and suddenly recalled their reaction to Qin Lin cooking.

They must have eaten it before.

In other words, Qin Lin was the one who did all this?

That left them too shocked.

The two of them ate more than ten dishes and realized that the taste of the okra and yam had not changed. It was still the same as before. It should have been made by Master Lin.

Only the fish and eel tasted better. This should be made by Qin Lin.

Chen Shengfei looked at Qin Lin in surprise. "Qin Lin, we've known each other for so long, but I didn't expect you to be so good at cooking."

Ma Liewen agreed. "Well, obviously, Old Chen and I met you first, but Li Qing tasted your cooking first. I'm envious."

Li Qing looked up and teased, "Old Ma, can you not be like a resentful woman? This is not how you get jealous."

Qin Lin also smiled and said, "Old Ma, don't you and Old Chen get to eat now? Besides, I don't cook often. I was just thanking Mr. Li previously."

When Li Qing heard this, he felt that something was wrong. "Wait, why are they Old Chen and Old Ma while I'm Mr. Li? Boss Qin, we've been in your villa for longer than the two of them, right? I even helped you mix and brew wine. Do you treat me as an outsider?"

Now Ma Liewen retaliated. "Li Qing, that's not how you get jealous. It's just a title."

Qin Lin was stunned.

It was no wonder that Chen Shengfei, Ma Liewen, and the others would play together. They were mocking each other and did not let go of any opportunities.

Li Qing said to Qin Lin, "Call me Old Li in the future. I can't be excluded."

Qin Lin smiled and nodded.

He naturally did not think that Li Qing cared about this. Those who really cared about this would not say it out loud. Instead, they would hide it in their hearts.

Those who could really say it out loud actually treated them as friends.

At this moment, Li Kai suddenly interrupted, "Brother Qin, you can call me Brother Li."

This was all just playing around.

At this moment.

Zhao Moqing called him to discuss the listing tomorrow. Now, he was going to release a promotional video.

He could only inform Li Qing and the others before leaving the table.

Ma Liewen couldn't help but sigh. "Who would believe that the person who can brew the Qinglin Medicine Wine is comparable to Old Yang in culinary skills? I wonder how much ability Qin Lin still has hidden."

Chapter 226

"Training pets!" Li Kai interrupted again. "I was doing an experiment in the backyard watermelon field this afternoon. There was a little squirrel dressed and carrying a backpack standing on a watermelon and staring at my experiment for a long time. Then Ms. Lin walked past with the dog. The squirrel jumped onto the dog's head again and walked away together."

Ma Liewen added, "There's more than one squirrel. Qin Lin trained a lot of squirrels at the Triangular Plum Blossom Sea."

Chen Shengfei suddenly thought of something and said proudly, "You guys definitely don't know about Qin Lin's ability. Only I should know."

That did get the others' attention.

"What is it?" asked Ma Liewen curiously.

Chen Shengfei explained, "Fishing. Qin Lin and I went to the reservoir to fish before. Do you know how he fished? When I caught one, he had already caught two buckets. It was as if the fish ran to his hook by themselves. He's definitely better than those fishing masters. I even saw him catch a wild big fish with my own eyes."

Ma Liewen and Li Qing felt a little emotional.

How much more ability was Qin Lin hiding?

Even Chen Fengwu, who was a master, felt that Boss Qin was a very strange person. It was already not bad for a person to be able to make a name for himself in an industry. It was already impressive for him to become the top in this industry.

However,he could even achieve top-notch results in different fields. It was really not something an ordinary person could do.

Qin Lin returned to the office area and walked towards a multimedia room.

This was specially arranged by Zhao Moqing.

There were already more than 1.8 million fans in the official account of the villa. Coupled with the fact that the villa was busy, she naturally had to hire some special people to handle some matters. Otherwise, she would not have the energy.

When Qin Lin walked into the multimedia room, the lights inside were brighter than those outside. They were specially installed for filming videos.

Other than Zhao Moqing and Gao Yaoyao, there were two other people inside.

A man was holding a camera machine and connecting it to a computer. He was editing a video. He was naturally a professional editor he had recruited. He also took care of the cameras.

The other person was a girl who was watching the video on another screen with Gao Yaoyao.

It was a synced video of the cut.

The girl was the planner.

In the past, Zhao Moqing had thought of the video lines for the official account of the villa. Now, she had handed them over to a special planner.

As for the female lead of the video, it was naturally Gao Yaoyao. Who asked her to be so generous and amiable?

"Boss!" Gao Yaoyao noticed Qin Lin and hurriedly greeted him.

The girl planner and editor hurriedly greeted him respectfully.

"Boss!"

"Boss!"

Qin Lin nodded and said, "Carry on with your work. Don't worry about me!"

Zhao Moqing pulled Qin Lin to the screen and said, "Qin Lin, come and take a look at the video. If there's no problem, I'll post it at prime time tonight."

"Yes!" Qin Lin nodded.

…

Time passed.

The sky quickly turned completely dark.

The villa was no longer as peaceful as it used to be. With the opening of the bridal chamber, many overnight tourists would stroll around the villa and talk intimately.

For many couples, this was also a form of romance. After all, the villa was brightly lit and they could go anywhere.

And night was naturally the golden time of the Internet world.

Most people had already finished work and started online life.

In particular, a certain voice had become the gathering point for most of the Internet traffic. It was either looking at beautiful women or handsome men, or listening to chicken soup for the soul, or scolding someone, or being a wave of goddesses…

Qinglin Villa's fans had already reached more than 1.8 million after the last Supreme Set Event.

Moreover, it had not been long since the Supreme Set Event and the Qinglin Medicine Wine. The popularity of the Qinglin Villa was still very high, and the number of fans was increasing every day.

Many fans were even looking forward to the next event at Qinglin Villa.

After all, every event at the villa was popular on the Internet, and the prizes were even more amazing.

The melon king, the Supreme Set meal, and the Qinglin Medicine Wine were all rare outside. In fact, the standards were so high that most rich people could not eat these things.

One after another, it was difficult not to look forward to the activities at Qinglin Villa. Some hardcore fans would even click on the Qinglin Villa's backstage every day to take a look.

What if there was another activity at the Qinglin Villa? Then they would know immediately and book the bridal chamber at the Qinglin Villa.

Everyone knew that the bridal chamber at Qinglin Villa would be the most popular at that time.

Today, many fans of Qinglin Villa were surprised to find that the villa had released a new video. Gao Yaoyao, this beautiful girl, appeared on screen again.

The content of the video immediately attracted many fans.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Gao Yaoyao. I have good news for everyone today. Our villa has custom-made two signs. We'll be hanging them up tomorrow. On the day of the listing, our villa has prepared 4,666 benefits for the tourists that day."

"Remember, this is a benefit. There's no need for a lucky draw. As long as you meet the requirements, you can receive the benefit for free…"

After watching the video, everyone was surprised. Many people even became anxious.

The first benefit was the Qinglin Medicine Wine that strengthened the body and nourished the kidneys. Each serving was 30ml, a total of 1,000 servings.

The Qinglin Medicine Wine had long been known by everyone. Everyone knew that this bottle of wine cost at least 60,000 yuan per catty. Moreover, the people who had won the prize had already confirmed that it could make men last very long in bed.

Chapter 227

Tomorrow, Qinglin Villa would actually give away 1,000 servings of this wine for free. Even if each serving was only 30 ml, it could be used sparingly for more than three days. Moreover, according to the 60,000 yuan per catty, it was worth 3,600 yuan.

Now it was available for free as long as the conditions were met.

This was a real gift. It wasn't like those influencers who talked about cutting prices for their families as benefits but sold them at a higher price than online.

Most importantly, this medicinal wine was something that those rich people could not buy even if they wanted to. Now, they had a chance to receive it for free.

The first benefit instantly attracted everyone's attention, but when Gao Yaoyao mentioned the second benefit, many people were dumbfounded.

A Qinglin Medicine Wine that could cure hemorrhoids?

Many people squeezed their legs together inexplicably when they saw this. Then their faces revealed their urgency.

Because that was Qinglin Medicine Wine, which cost 60,000 yuan per catty. Now that Qinglin Villa said that it could treat hemorrhoids, they shouldn't be joking, right?

After all, this medicinal wine that could treat hemorrhoids was also 30ml, but only 666 portions are available. This meant that this medicinal wine was even more precious than the one that nourished the kidneys and strengthened the body.

If it cost 60,000 yuan per catty for the medicinal wine that nourishes the kidneys and strengthens the body, how much was this more precious medicinal wine worth?

In the video, Gao Yaoyao announced the third benefit. "The first two benefits have already made everyone look forward to it, right? Then let's talk about the third benefit. This benefit is a true blessing for insomniacs. That is 3,000 sets of sandalwood incense that can increase sleep. Each set costs 10 grams. It will last until it's sold out. Moreover, Yaoyao has experienced this sandalwood incense personally. It's very effective."

"The above 4,666 benefits can be received for free as long as you pay 200 yuan tomorrow. Moreover, because it's a benefit, you can only receive it once."

The third benefit also attracted everyone.

Because hemorrhoids were common, insomnia was also very common.

In modern society, there was poisonous chicken soup everywhere. The young people on the Internet were already 25 years old and had millions of dollars in savings, cars, and houses. This naturally caused huge pressure on the young people who were working hard in reality, and also caused their insomnia rate to be very high.

Many people suffer from insomnia in the dead of night. They find it difficult to sleep when they turn the other way. Their hearts and minds are tortured.

If there was something that could help him sleep, it would definitely be a blessing.

Most importantly, the fact that the Qinglin Villa gave the incense and the Qinglin Medicine Wine together as benefits showed the value of the incense. Otherwise, wouldn't the Qinglin Villa be making a fool of themselves?

Those who saw the video were already eager to try.

In Min Province.

In a villa, Wang Yang was already wrapped in a towel. He picked up the Qinglin Medicine Wine and poured himself a cup. The effect of this wine was extremely strong, but it wouldn't last long.

"Brother Yang, there's an event at Qinglin Villa again. They're even giving us some medicine." A woman ran out with a towel around her waist and sat beside Wang Yang with her phone.

Wang Yang looked at the woman's phone and saw the welfare video of Qinglin Villa. Without any hesitation, he said to the woman, "Baby, I'll go to Qinglin Villa tomorrow."

Even if it was 30 ml, it could be used three times.

Besides, he could pay the bill himself and get his girlfriend to do it again. Wouldn't that mean he could use it six more times?

However, the woman suddenly clenched her fists nervously and frowned at Wang Yang. "Brother Yang, I've already divorced him. Will you really marry me?"

"We'll get our marriage certificate after we return from Qinglin Villa," Wang Yang said decisively. He was not irresponsible. If he said he would marry her after winning the prize at Qinglin Villa, he would marry her. So be it.

Initially, he had wanted to marry a girl who was quiet and did not play in nightclubs. However, one of his brothers had thought the same and had also found a quiet female teacher.

But his friend had recently discovered that the other party was a mistress for four rich people. Wasn't that ridiculous? A man who had hung out at night had been defeated just like that.

In the end, he realized that the child did not belong to his friend either.

That scared him, too. In that case, he might as well leave it at that.

Men should resign themselves to fate sometimes!

"Brother Yang, you're so good to me." The woman was instantly touched as she looked at Wang Yang.

However, he looked at the woman seriously. "Don't go to the nightclub after you get married."

The woman nodded frantically. "No, I've had enough fun. It's fine as long as you're around in the future. Brother Yang, don't go, okay?"

"I've had enough fun too. Let's live a good life." Wang Yang sighed and picked up his phone. "I'll book the bridal chamber at Qinglin Villa!"

"Yes!" The woman nodded and happily scrolled through the video.

She was really willing to stop going to nightclubs for Wang Yang's sake. As for her ex-husband, perhaps it wasn't true love. He was too honest and unromantic.

A moment later, the woman saw a video and suddenly said to Wang Yang, "Brother Yang, look, a very famous Professor Ren is posting a video to scold Qinglin Villa."

"As a professor dedicated to physical health research, I'm very angry at what Qinglin Villa is doing. They're playing to the gallery. It's common knowledge that those who have hemorrhoids have to abstain from alcohol. Their diet needs to be very light. Now, in order to promote themselves to increase their popularity, Qinglin Villa is actually openly promoting medicinal wine that can treat hemorrhoids. They're breaking through our bottom line of understanding. This is very shameful…"

"?" Wang Yang stared at Professor Ren's promotional video in shock.

It seemed like Qinglin Villa was in trouble.

This was because he knew that Professor Ren was really very famous. He wasn't the kind of expert professor who played to the gallery. He was a real professor of medicine at the Chinese Academy of Sciences and was about to become an academician.

Most importantly, what Professor Ren said made sense.

Because people with hemorrhoids did have to avoid alcohol.

Indeed, many people on the Internet knew that not only did hemorrhoids require abstinence from alcohol, but they also needed to have a light diet. When they saw Professor Ren's video, more and more people tagged Qinglin Villa, especially those who were watching the commotion.

In a suite.

A woman's face revealed a ferocious expression when she saw the video. This woman was none other than Chun Chun.

She had suffered heavy losses the last time at Qinglin Villa. Her account had been blocked, and the other party had even asked that lawyer surnamed Chu to sue her for financial compensation.

Now it finally gave her a chance for revenge.

She took out her phone and contacted the Internet ghostwriters. She wanted them to help Professor Ren scold Qinglin Villa. She wanted to hype this matter up. With Professor Ren's status, Qinglin Villa would be unlucky no matter what. She wanted others to scold them for playing to the gallery and insulting people's intelligence. They actually said that alcohol could treat hemorrhoids.

"This time, I'll let your Qinglin Villa have a taste of what it's like to be attacked by the Internet." Chun Chun gritted her teeth and transferred 100,000 yuan.

Although it had been a little difficult recently, and 100,000 yuan was already a lot, if this matter was blown up, Qinglin Villa would lose a hundred times, or even a thousand times more than that.

After all, that was Professor Ren, the person who had made a huge contribution in the previous disaster.

Chapter 228

As Chun Chun secretly supported Professor Ren's video, the video of Professor Ren attacking Qinglin Villa quickly became popular.

This attracted the attention of countless netizens.

With Qinglin Villa's reputation and the reputation of Qinglin Medicine Wine, if it were another professor, no matter who it was, the netizens would definitely scoff. Perhaps this professor's comments section would immediately be attacked, and he might even be mocked for playing to the gallery?

But this Professor Ren was different.

Not only was he famous, but he had really contributed a lot.

The several drugs he had researched had benefited countless people, making the originally expensive drugs cheaper.

Professor Ren was about to be conferred as an academician as well. Most importantly, he was still a hero.

He had also been a member of the front-line research team during the unprecedented disaster crisis. He had made a huge contribution and was on the hero commendation list.

When such a person questioned Qinglin Villa, no one dared to think that he was playing to the gallery. Besides, it was indeed common sense to avoid alcohol when one had hemorrhoids.

In the video, it could be seen that Professor Ren was exceptionally angry when he attacked Qinglin Villa.

The most important point was that the effects of the qinglin medicine wine had been proven. The effects of this treatment for hemorrhoids had not been proven.

There was no guarantee that Qinglin Villa would not deliberately resort to unorthodox means to attract attention.

After all, who could guarantee anything on the Internet?

More and more people saw the video and tagged Qinglin Villa.

This caused Qinglin Villa to fall into a whirlpool of public opinion.

…

In Qinglin Villa.

As soon as Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen finished dinner, they pulled Li Qing to Qin Lin's office to make tea.

After all, with Ma Liewen bringing the oolong tea and the agarwood incense in Qin Lin's office, wouldn't it be enjoyable to chat and drink tea inside?

"Agarwood incense." Li Qing sighed. "Qin Lin, when did you get such a good thing?"

Chen Shengfei teased, "Li Qing, to think you've been staying at Qin Lin's place all this time. You've been staying here for nothing."

Ma Liewen smiled. "He only has eyes for wine. If it weren't for you playing with incense, Old Chen, I wouldn't have paid attention to Qin Lin's shelf with a box of incense."

Qin Lin, on the other hand, poured everyone another cup of tea made by Ma Liewen.

As they were chatting, Zhao Moqing suddenly walked in with an anxious expression. There were Gao Yaoyao, the planner, and the editor.

"Qin Lin, something happened online," Zhao Moqing said anxiously.

"What's wrong?" Qin Lin asked curiously. This was the first time he had seen Zhao Moqing so anxious.

"Look at this video." Zhao Moqing immediately handed her phone to Qin Lin. A video was playing.

"Professor Ren?" Qin Lin was surprised to see the person in the video.

There should be very few people who didn't know Professor Ren, Elder Zhong, and Elder Yuan, right?

Although Professor Ren was far inferior to people like Elder Zhong and Elder Yuan, everyone knew that Professor Ren would be the successor to such people in the future. He had contributed greatly, and the reason why he was awarded as an academician was only because of his seniority. There were still some people ahead of him.

Although there was some seniority in such matters, there was no helping it.

Professor Ren's angry voice came from the video. "As a professor dedicated to physical health research, I'm very angry at what Qinglin Villa has done…"

"?" Qin Lin was stunned when he saw the video.

He respected people like Professor Ren very much.

But he did not expect to be rebuked by Professor Ren.

After watching Professor Ren's video, he was powerless to refute. This was because he also knew the common sense of alcohol abstinence. Before the outside world proved this effect, it was normal for others to suspect his medicinal wine.

However, he did not understand one thing. It was impossible for people like Professor Ren to criticize him for promoting an event like Qinglin Villa, right?

After all, there were many fake promotions online. The other party would not be in the mood at all.

But it was happening now, and Professor Ren looked furious.

Wasn't this putting Qinglin Villa on the fire?

Chen Shengfei, Ma Liewen, Li Qing, and Li Kai also came over when they heard the voice.

"What's going on?" Ma Liewen wondered.

Chen Shengfei wondered, "It's Professor Ren. Why would he suddenly come to criticize Qin Lin? That shouldn't be the case."

"Something's wrong," Li Qing agreed.

Li Kai suddenly interrupted. "The medicine is effective, I've drunk it. It can be proven."

This made Chen Shengfei, Ma Liewen, and Li Qing look at him with strange gazes.

Li Kai was immediately annoyed when he met the gazes of the three of them. He said, "I know Professor Ren and I've seen him before. He's indeed not someone who has such leisure. There must be some misunderstanding. From the angle of the shot, it's obvious that it was secretly taken from the side."

They watched the video and realized that was true.

Chen Shengfei frowned and said, "But Professor Ren's words are indeed directed at the villa. If we don't deal with this, the villa will indeed be in some trouble. Perhaps some people who can't stand Qinglin Villa or those who purely earn traffic online will take the opportunity to cause trouble."

"Then when everyone questions you, what's wrong can become right. What's fake can become real."

This was the drawback of the Internet. It was difficult to tell if it was real or fake.

Zhao Moqing frowned again and said, "This has already happened online. Many bloggers have already posted videos about this. Almost all of them are on Professor Ren's side and scolding our villa."

Qin Lin took Zhao Moqing's phone and scrolled through a few videos. Sure enough, he saw a video of a commenter:

Chapter 229

"I just watched a video of Qinglin Villa. I have to say that it's a complete failure this time. Professor Ren personally criticized it angrily…"

Qin Lin frowned and scrolled through a few more videos. He saw another video of a commenter:

"Let's talk about Professor Ren first. He has made a lot of contributions and contributed greatly in the previous disaster. However, something that made him very angry happened today. It was the Qinglin Villa…"

He continued scrolling and soon came to a video of a commenter:

"Qinglin Villa will inevitably fall into the stereotype of businessmen in the end. Unfortunately, the publicity this time is unacceptable. It's already painful enough to have hemorrhoids, but Qinglin Villa actually said that alcohol can treat hemorrhoids. It's really shocking. No wonder Professor Ren…"

Sure enough, the first thing that popped up in any popular event were video commenters.

These people did not have talent or looks. The way they attracted traffic was to target the trending searches. They would post videos to comment on whatever was trending and use the trending topics to attract traffic.

And all they had to have was a mouth that could talk and put themselves on the moral high ground.

No matter what kind of people they were in private, on the Internet they were the high and mighty Virgin Mary who saw through everything. Their persona was set to the highest level.

Therefore, the higher the character setting, the more often such commenters would fail.

Under normal circumstances, they would also think about it carefully and even understand what was going on before commenting on the video to avoid being overturned. Once they were overturned, it would not be long before they were finished.

But now that someone like Professor Ren had appeared, it meant that he was absolutely on the right side. As long as they could deal with Qinglin Villa, they would be able to do so immediately. That was because they did not need to have any scruples.

Qin Lin smiled teasingly. "Looks like the villa is more popular than ever."

Zhao Moqing became even more anxious. "Qin Lin, are you joking? Who wants this kind of popularity?"

Li Qing also frowned and said, "Everyone, help Qin Lin think of a way to deal with this."

Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen also frowned in deep thought.

If they were the ones who encountered this matter, how would they deal with it? However, their corporation's situation was completely different from the villa. Even if it was the same thing, the way they dealt with it would be different.

The method that could be used by their corporation might not necessarily be used on Qin Lin's villa.

Li Kai looked at the frowns on their faces and mocked them. "You guys are also people who do big business and big things. Do you need to think about such a small matter for so long?"

For a moment, Chen Shengfei and the others all looked at Li Kai.

Li Qing said directly, "Uncle, why are you still talking nonsense? Tell me if you have a solution!"

Qin Lin also said, "Mr. Li… Brother, tell me. I'll treat you to medicinal wine tomorrow."

When Li Kai heard this, he immediately said, "Brother Qin, there's no problem with my ability as a man, unlike the three of them."

These words immediately attracted the glares of Li Qing, Chen Shengfei, and Ma Liewen. If this guy wasn't Li Qing's uncle, he would definitely be beaten up badly.

Qin Lin smiled and nodded. "Mr. Li… Brother, I understand. I won't give you the wrong wine."

If there was no problem with a man's ability, it meant that he did not need anything to nourish his kidneys and strengthen his body. What he wanted was something to treat his hemorrhoids.

Only then did Li Kai smile and say, "Actually, you guys are thinking too much about people like Professor Ren. This video should have been used by a lot of people. This medicinal wine is really effective. Boss Qin, send a video to tag Professor Ren and invite him to verify the effects of this medicinal wine."

"Professor Ren is a very inquisitive person. If this medicinal wine is really effective, it will definitely arouse his curiosity and even make him want to study it."

"As long as Professor Ren is here, won't everything be resolved? Besides, this medicinal wine is really effective, because he won't ignore it now that he has come this far."

Li Kai made it sound very simple, but Li Qing said, "Uncle, even if that's the case, there's still a premise. How can we let Professor Ren know that this medicinal wine is really effective? Otherwise, would he agree to come if you sent him an invitation? He might even think that you have other motives."

Li Kai shook his head and looked at Li Qing. "Li Qing, I'm so lucky that you didn't take the family route. With your memory, didn't I tell you that I met Professor Ren? He knows the director of our research institute. I'll call the director and make a promise. Our director can just go and say something. How simple is that?"

As Li Kai spoke, he took out his phone and dialed.

Qin Lin also said to Zhao Moqing, "Take a video saying that he will invite Professor Ren to verify the effects of the medicinal wine."

"Yes." Zhao Moqing nodded.

…

While Qinglin Villa was thinking of countermeasures, the matter on the Internet had already completely fermented. More and more people posted videos to comment, and public opinion was becoming more and more unfavorable to Qinglin Villa.

In the same house, Chun Chun had been paying attention to this matter. Seeing this result, she was very satisfied. She felt that it was the result of her spending 100,000 yuan to find fake ghostwriters to support the popularity.

Although her heart ached for 100,000 yuan, she wanted to laugh when she thought of Qinglin Villa's current situation.

Sometimes, she would even sacrifice 800 yuan to kill 1,000 enemies, let alone 100,000 yuan to kill Qinglin Villa. She had earned a lot.

"Qinglin Villa actually replied with a video?" Chun Chun had been paying attention to the account of Qinglin Villa and quickly realized that Qinglin Villa had sent another video.

Chapter 230

She immediately clicked on the video:

"Let me explain about medicinal wine. First of all, this medicinal wine is a 20-year-old medicinal wine… It doesn't mean that medicinal wine can't treat hemorrhoids… In addition, our villa hopes to invite Professor Ren to verify the effect of this medicinal wine."

Seeing this response video, Chun Chun smiled.

Inviting Professor Ren to verify it? Qinglin Villa was probably thinking too much.

If it were any other professor, they could have made him change his words.

But they could forget about doing that to Professor Ren. It would be a pure insult to his intelligence if they did that.

Qinglin Villa's response video was naturally seen by everyone who followed this matter, especially those commenters. Bloggers like them only had one chance to gain popularity for a trending topic. They would only post a video. How much they could gain depended on their own abilities.

If they posted two or three videos of the same thing in a row, the intention of freeloading would be too obvious. Fans were not fools.

Therefore, they hoped that the person involved would have a response video every time because once there was a response video, they could send another video to gain traffic.

In a studio.

A man in a suit with a crew cut and a square face was frowning at the video of Qinglin Villa.

He was Brother Song, a reviewer who was ranked fifth on a certain platform.

The video he posted in this image could easily make people think that he was an official news anchor. He naturally gave people a positive impression.

It also added a lot of points to his career as a reviewer.

But no one knew that he was originally just an insurance salesman. He was even fired for fooling old people into buying insurance.

He had unexpectedly become a blogger after posting a video about a trending topic. Now, he has nearly three million fans.

Moreover, as long as he broke through three million fans, he would be able to advance a little further. It would not be a problem for him to reach the top three.

This was important. The benefits to the top three were nothing like the benefits to the top five.

An assistant at the side said, "Brother Song, Qinglin Villa said that they would invite Professor Ren. How is that possible? A person like Professor Ren wouldn't change his mind for money. Qinglin Villa made a mistake this time, are they going to insult our intelligence again?"

Brother Song pondered for a moment and suddenly made a decision. He said coldly, "If Qinglin Villa insults others' intelligence, we'll insult Qinglin Villa."

"The popularity of the incident is so high now. We just want to make things a little more intense. After posting the video, we'll spend another 200,000 yuan to invest in the video that was given to us to attract more traffic. We'll take this opportunity to make my fans exceed 3 million."

Brother Song was very ambitious. Otherwise, he wouldn't have fooled the elderly into buying insurance for his promotion. If he hadn't been exposed, he would have been a successful person in the insurance industry at the time.

But this time, Professor Ren was on the right side. He was not afraid of any problems. If he spent 200,000 yuan now, he could earn it back 10 times or 20 times in the future.

A moment later, Brother Song got his assistant to take a video. Then, he began to say to the video, "It hurts me to see the response of Qinglin Villa. Usually, when a company, especially a famous scenic area, is pointed out as wrong, the first thing to do is to be humble and correct it."

"But after Professor Ren pointed out that Qinglin Villa had made a mistake in common sense, they actually didn't repent and even tried to continue sensationalizing by inviting Professor Ren to verify the medicinal wine."

"I can only say that Qinglin Villa is trying to push people's IQ to the ground. It's even more impossible for Professor Ren to change his opinion of Qinlin Villa for such a common sense mistake."

"Don't think that just because you created a medicinal wine that rich people fight over, you can claim to be able to treat everything. How is this different from the former brain platinum, super height increase, and all-purpose medicine?"

"I can foresee that Qinglin Villa will shoot themselves in the foot again. I can also foresee that Qinglin Villa will quickly disappear because of this mistake, just like many Internet celebrities who suddenly became popular. In the end, no one will care about them."

The video went off without a hitch, and Brother Song realized that he was building up to the right emotions, especially the anger. When people watched the video, everyone thought he was a righteous man.

After sending the video, Brother Song took his phone and directly spent 200,000 yuan on publicity. Because of the one-time limit, he could only split his account and invest money.

As this matter was popular enough, as soon as Brother Song's Dou+ was done, the assistant reported excitedly, "Brother Song, it has already begun to attract traffic. The number of comments and likes, as well as the increase in fans, is ten times that of the previous video. With this trend, we can use this matter to break through three million fans."

Brother Song was all smiles when he heard this. Professor Ren was giving him a chance.

Chapter 231

The day passed quickly.

Professor Ren got up early, washed up, and went downstairs to the courtyard to do some tai chi.

Unless his experiment was in trouble, his routine was very regular.

When he returned home after tai chi, his wife had already prepared porridge for him.

After taking two bites, he received a call from his good friend, Professor Liu. The other party was the director of an agricultural research institute in Ming City.

Professor Ren answered immediately, "Old Liu, why are you calling me so early in the morning?"

Professor Liu's voice came from the phone. "Old Ren, I knew you were already up. Your matter has blown up on the Internet. I was entrusted by someone to look for you to mediate."

"Wait!" Professor Ren was suddenly stunned. "Old Liu, what are you saying? What happened?"

"What?" Professor Liu was clearly stunned. "Old Ren, don't you know about such a big matter on the Internet? It's about you having a problem with Qinglin Villa. Now, there are videos of you all over the Internet."

"Old Liu, wait!" Professor Ren frowned. He asked his wife to bring his phone over. As expected, he quickly saw a video about him.

Although he was old, he still had some understanding of these video platforms on the Internet. After all, his wife often scrolled through this platform.

"As a professor dedicated to physical health and drug research, I'm very angry that Qinglin Villa did this for—"

When he saw the likes and comments, he knew that this was a big deal. Moreover, every time he scrolled through a few videos, he would see self-proclaimed commenters commenting on his video with Qinglin Villa.

"They're all so insensible," Professor Ren scolded angrily.

He was the one who said those words, but his condition at that time did not have any intention of targeting Qinglin Villa, nor did he have any intention of posting it online. He was targeting his son, and those words were directed at his daughter-in-law.

His son had always been worrisome and academically incompetent. He had relied on his connections to arrange for him to enter a friend's research institute. Who knew that he would still be so careless?

Most importantly, his son had married an ostentatious but worthless and worrisome wife.

This time, his friend's key experiment was lacking manpower. His son's troublesome wife actually urged him to go to some Qinglin Villa because her hemorrhoids had acted up. The medicinal wine in Qinglin Villa could treat hemorrhoids.

At that time, he was naturally very angry and said those words. It was fine if women were worried, but they didn't even have common sense. As a professor, how could he believe that alcohol could treat hemorrhoids?

Naturally, his words were only directed at his troublesome daughter-in-law. He hoped that she would understand.

Thinking about her best friend's self-media studio, it was obvious what was going on.

Stupid woman. She even dared to secretly take a video of her family and upload them online. She even caused such a huge commotion.

It was truly unfortunate to marry such a woman.

But Professor Ren could only sigh in the end.

What choice did he have? The woman had given him a granddaughter.

If she hadn't been pregnant, he would never have agreed to let his son marry her.

In the end, Professor Ren could only helplessly say into the phone, "Old Liu, I know what's going on, but I really don't know what's happening online."

He now understood how Elder Yuan felt when he did not even know he had tens of millions of fans in a certain account.

However, he did not expect to encounter such a f*cking thing.

Professor Ren asked again, "Old Liu, for you to make this call, it must mean that the background of that Qinglin Villa is not simple, right?"

Professor Liu said, "Old Ren, you're mistaken. What I can confirm is that the medicinal wine is really effective for treating hemorrhoids. You've misunderstood him, which is why I'm willing to make this call."

"That medicinal wine can really treat hemorrhoids? That doesn't make sense!" Professor Ren was clearly very surprised, which seemed to challenge his common sense.

"Old Ren, I know it's against common sense, but it can indeed be done. And from what I understand, the effect is very strong, surpassing all the related drugs on the market," Professor Liu said with great certainty. "Although this is a little unbelievable, there's no guarantee that some denaturation element has appeared in that medicinal wine. It's not uncommon in science."

When Professor Ren heard this, he was immediately attracted. "Old Liu, since you can make this call, you should have the contact information from Qinglin Villa, right? Can I go to their place to order some wine to study?"

The appearance of a denaturation element in the science of any subject may contribute to the development of a subject.

Hemorrhoids aversion to alcohol was common knowledge, as well as the science of life and health. Now that there was a medicinal alcohol that could treat acne, it was very likely that there were changeling elements. If that could be researched, it was more likely to be relevant to some things.

It was a very great attraction for his kind.

When Professor Liu heard Professor Ren's words, he smiled and said, "The situation on the Internet is also very bad for Qinglin Villa, so they also sent a video to invite you to verify the effects of the medicinal wine. They're just waiting for your reply."

When Professor Ren heard this, he said without hesitation, "Old Liu, tell the other party that I'll set off in a while. I should be able to reach you in the evening. By the way, it's because of me that the matter on the Internet happened. I'll take a video for you and you can pass it to Qinglin Villa."

"Alright, I'll help you pass it on," Professor Liu said.

…

In Qinglin Villa.

Qin Lin went to the warehouse to transport the items in the game to the villa. As soon as he arrived at his office, he received a WeChat message from Li Kai. It was a video.

Chapter 232

There was also a message under the video: "It's a misunderstanding. Professor Ren didn't know that there was such a big commotion online. Moreover, he promised to come to Qinglin Villa. He should arrive in Ming City this evening and come to the villa tomorrow."

After Qin Lin saw the message, he clicked on the video. It was actually a video of Professor Ren's selfie:

"I'm sorry about what happened online. I don't want to occupy too much public resources for my own reasons. In addition, it's not rigorous to make a decision without figuring out Qinglin Medicine Wine. This doesn't make scientific sense, so I'm here to apologize to everyone."

"It's common knowledge that hemorrhoids abstain from alcohol, but if a scientific degeneration element appears, it will be a special case. And my information is that this scientific degeneration element exists in the Qinglin Medicine Wine. If I can study it and understand it, it will presumably be a boon for patients with hemorrhoids. For this reason, I will personally go to Qinglin Villa."

"In addition, I will also hand over to a lawyer to deal with people who secretly took photos and uploaded my videos to gain traffic. I will definitely not let them off."

Professor Ren's last sentence was unusually firm because he knew that this matter was related to his daughter-in-law and her best friend.

He would never condone such a thing, or there would be a next time.

When Qin Lin saw this video, he immediately had a good impression of Professor Ren. Given the other party's status, there should be very few people who could apologize so sincerely on the video channel and even take the initiative to admit their mistakes.

Moreover, the other party had transferred this video to him, meaning that he should post it online and resolve the current situation in Qinglin Villa.

This was also very thoughtful.

The office door opened and Zhao Moqing rushed in. "Qin Lin, Professor Ren didn't respond to the video we sent last night. How's the contact with Mr. Li?"

Qin Lin smiled and handed his phone to Zhao Moqing. "It's been resolved. Just post this video."

Zhao Moqing took the phone in confusion and saw the video of Professor Ren.

"I'll take care of it," Zhao Moqing said after watching it. Then, he hurriedly left with Qin Lin's phone. With this video, the commotion on the Internet could be over, and the disadvantages could also be turned around.

Online.

After a night of fermenting, the popularity of Professor Ren and Qinglin Villa had completely erupted. More commenters posted videos criticizing Qinglin Villa.

In an office.

Brother Song had already been paying attention to the data behind his back. His likes and attention had increased a lot. He had invested 200,000 Dou+ and deliberately made the conflict between the two sides sharp.

This kind of provocative method was actually very risky. They were afraid that their side would be reversed, and that would be the end.

However, it was impossible for people like Professor Ren and Elder Yuan to be reversed. There was no need to have so many scruples.

"Brother Song, Qinglin Villa has sent another video," the assistant suddenly said anxiously.

Brother Song smiled and said, "It must be because Professor Ren didn't respond to the video that Qinglin Villa sent yesterday and sent another video in response."

"Brother Song, no. Come and see." But the assistant was anxious.

Puzzled, Brother Song stepped forward with a frown. He saw the video posted by Qinglin Villa, but the content of the video stunned him.

That video was actually Professor Ren's response video? Professor Ren even apologized and said that he would go to Qinglin Villa.

"How is that possible?" Brother Song was incredulous.

This shouldn't be happening.

But it happened.

Professor Ren also said something about the element of scientific degeneration. They did not understand what this meant, but it seemed to indicate that the Qinglin Medicine Wine could treat hemorrhoids, right?

Brother Song was momentarily confused.

He had already spent 200,000 yuan. Now, it was far from the expected profits. Wasn't this scamming him?

Not only Brother Song, but the commenters who posted the video were also stunned by this attack.

It was right to stand on Professor Ren's side, but now that Professor Ren had expressed that his position was not right, wasn't this making things difficult for them? They were beaten up so badly that they could barely breathe.

The most unlikely reversal had come.

The point was, wasn't this making them look like they didn't understand the situation and were blindly taking sides? There was no objective neutrality to comment on?

Some of their comments had already raised such doubts.

The point was, what did Professor Ren mean by that last sentence? He had secretly taken photos and posted his video online. There seemed to be something else going on.

Also, Professor Ren's words about letting the lawyer handle it would be serious. It would be very troublesome for someone like Professor Ren to take responsibility.

The commenters gasped a little. When they looked for the first video again, they couldn't find it. It had obviously been deleted.

Wasn't this a scam? Everyone immediately deleted the video.

For a moment, the video of Professor Ren and the comments from Qinglin Villa quickly disappeared.

In fact, many netizens who were joining in the fun would not be able to find the relevant videos later.

In Brother Song's studio, he hurriedly said to his assistant, "Quick, delete the video. We've been tricked this time."

The most unlikely reversal had been reversed. What could he do? He couldn't criticize Professor Ren in turn, could he? If he dared to do that, his account with almost three million fans might be gone.

Fortunately, it was Professor Ren this time. Since Professor Ren had already apologized, it would not affect him too much. After all, who would have expected such an unforeseen event?

Chapter 233

Did everyone believe that Professor Ren was wrong?

It was a waste of his 20,000 yuan.

As Brother Song thought about this, not long after, his assistant showed him a video with an ugly expression. "Brother Song, this is bad. Someone is criticizing you. I think it's a blogger who just appeared. The other party left behind the video you posted previously. Now, he's using that video to reprimand you for deliberately provoking Professor Ren and Qinglin Villa for the sake of popularity. He even deliberately created a conflict and said that you were the one who caused the commotion online."

"What?" Brother Song didn't look happy. He hurried over to the video:

"…I have to say that this Brother Song did it in a very subtle way. He took advantage of Professor Ren's standing to attract traffic for himself. However, for the sake of traffic, he deliberately played dirty tricks and caused a sharp conflict. It's really shameful to cause a commotion. Everyone, look at his video…"

Clearly, Brother Song seemed to have forgotten that the Internet celebrity circle was also deep. When he wanted to seize the opportunity to step on others to climb up, he was also being watched from behind.

It made sense for a commenter to step on a commenter to get to the top, right?

It didn't take long for Brother Song's backstage to explode. They had come to denounce him after seeing the video of the commenter. He could even see his fans starting to decrease.

"F*ck…" Brother Song angrily smashed the phone in his hand.

Online.

Following the latest video posted by Qinglin Villa, the trend changed. Professor Ren's words instantly aroused everyone's curiosity about the medicinal wine of Qinglin Villa.

Did that mean that the Qinglin Medicine Wine could really treat hemorrhoids?

At this moment, countless people regretted it. They had originally wanted to go to Qinglin Villa because of what happened online.

It was too late to get there now.

An opportunity to cure hemorrhoids lay ahead of them, and they suspected they'd regret it the next time they had an outbreak.

In a house.

Chun Chun was also dumbfounded.

She had also spent 100,000 yuan, but it did not have any effect at all.

She had been tricked by that bastard Professor Ren.

That made her kick the chair beside her in a frenzy to vent.

It was then that she suddenly received a message. Her expression changed when she saw that it was from the court.

"… Due to your absence from court, we are now officially informing you that you have lost the case in the Qinglin Villa defamation case… According to the plaintiff's request, you will pay 500,000 yuan in compensation to Qinglin Villa… If you do not repay us in time, we will take tough measures."

Chun Chun's expression turned even uglier when she saw this message.

The reason why she hated Qinglin Villa was because the other party had gotten that lawyer surnamed Chu to sue her.

"500,000 yuan! 500,000 yuan!" Chun Chun muttered in frustration as she opened her phone to check her balance.

She regretted slandering Qinglin Villa for that bit of money. Not only did she lose her account, but she also had to compensate 500,000 yuan.

However, when she finished calculating the balance of her few cards, she was even more stunned. Her money had been dismissed by the team, as well as the money to pay back the bank and compensate for the advertisement. Now, she only had around 400,000 yuan in total. She was 100,000 yuan away from 500,000 yuan.

Most importantly, she had just spent 100,000 yuan.

"Why did this happen?"

She didn't know how to describe how she felt now.

…

As the Qinglin Villa posted Professor Ren's video, the situation completely reversed. This also made many tourists who were already on the way to Qinglin Villa look forward to it.

Wang Yang sat next to one of the cars. Because there wasn't enough time, he didn't drive this time.

In his arms was a very curvy, quietly dressed, very ladylike girl.

This was his girlfriend, Su Juan. She could be considered his fiancée. After all, he had promised to register their marriage when they returned.

Because of his good brother, he had also become indifferent to who he married.

His good brother had had enough fun and found a quiet girl to get married to, but who knew that this girl's past was even worse than his? The key was that it was the children who developed feelings for each other that were the worst.

Perhaps scumbags like them should be paired with scumbags.

Looking at Su Juan's innocent appearance in his arms, he didn't dare to recognize her as the bold and unrestrained girl with heavy makeup in the nightclub.

However, Su Juan did not know what Wang Yang was thinking. She held her phone and said sweetly, "Brother Yang, I didn't expect Professor Ren to apologize."

Wang Yang smiled and said, "Isn't that great? After Professor Ren's video, there should be much fewer people rushing to Qinglin Villa, right? Then there might not be any competition anymore. We can even think of ways to get more benefits."

"That's true. Brother Yang, you're so smart," Su Juan immediately said coquettishly.

Soon, the car arrived at the station. After getting out of the car, Wang Yang quickly realized how wrong his previous thoughts were.

The waiting road was already lined with two long lines. Taxis filled the space.

"Are you also here for Qinglin Villa?"

"Yeah, you guys too!"

"Why is Qinglin Villa in such a small county? Even a taxi would take so long."

"That's right. The point is, there are so few taxis. We'll have to wait if we leave in one wave."

"…"

These were all tourists who came to Qinglin Villa. They started chatting and complaining impatiently.

Who would have thought a small county waiting lane could have such a long line?

In any case, those taxi drivers were absolutely happy. There was no way for the passengers to finish. It took 40 minutes to get from the station to Qinglin Villa. The fare was about 70 to 85 yuan.

Chapter 234

It was not a problem to pull 10 batches from the station to Qinglin Villa in a day. From close to noon, they could go back and forth.

It was not difficult to pull in a total of 15 batches of guests a day. It was about 1,050-1,275 yuan for the car. After deducting the gas and other expenses, it was easy to earn tens of thousands a month.

The key was that there were too many tourists in Qinglin Villa. There were not enough cars, and many private cars had come to solicit customers. The company also planned to increase the number of cars.

It could be said that in Youcheng County, where the per capita salary was 3-4,000 yuan, taxi drivers had become a high-income group and the profession that many people yearned for the most.

This made them very grateful to Qinglin Villa. They also knew that this job was given to them by Qinglin Villa. Therefore, many times, they would also help Qinglin Villa introduce the situation of the villa to tourists and advise them on how to play Qinglin Villa better. They would even say good things about Qinglin Villa.

They knew that as long as Qinglin Villa did not collapse, their jobs would be guaranteed.

Wang Yang and Su Juan waited for a long car ride before finally arriving at Qinglin Villa. As soon as they got out of the car, they heard the sound of gongs and drums and firecrackers.

The two of them could see that a sign wrapped in red silk had already been hung up at the entrance of the villa. This should be the sign that the villa was going to change.

At this moment, there were already many tourists surrounding the entrance. They were also very curious about the new card of Qinglin Villa.

Qin Lin, Zhao Moqing, Chen Shengfei, Li Qing, and the others also arrived and looked at the crazy sound of firecrackers.

"What do you think the sign looks like, Old Chen?" asked Ma Liewen curiously.

They had not seen this sign since they came over and had only seen it now.

Chen Shengfei smiled and said, "Of course I know. I was the one who helped make the template for the signboard. It was written by my uncle."

"I hope I won't disappoint," Chen Fengwu said, cupping his hands at the others.

Already more tourists were gathering around them at the sound of the firecrackers.

At this moment, Chen Dabei had already walked under the signboard and grabbed a corner of the red silk.

Qin Lin did not do much for the listing ceremony of Qinglin Villa like those large companies. He only played gongs and drums and set off firecrackers. It was mainly to celebrate. Besides, there were still 4,666 benefits to make the tourists lively.

He did not even insist on doing this personally like those bosses.

He did not want to expose himself. He would stay hidden as long as he could.

Chen Dabei was naturally excited.

The fact that the boss had entrusted him with something as important as receiving silk meant that the boss trusted him. He was the boss's confidant.

In ancient times, if the boss was the emperor, he would be the eunuch… no, the head of security.

"Catch the silk."

Chen Dabei shouted and pulled down the red silk.

A moment.

The Quality 2 rosewood Sign appeared in everyone's eyes, and the words 'Qinglin Villa' were imprinted in everyone's eyes.

The attribute of attracting attention +2 and artistic aura +2 instantly made people unable to look away.

The words on the signboard were too beautiful and carried an indescribable artistic aura. The key was that the words 'Qinglin Villa' were exceptionally lively.

When Ma Liewen saw the words, he was immediately surprised. "Master Chen, your handwriting is good. This is the first time I've seen someone write an inscription so well. Can you help my company as well?"

Li Qing could not help but say, "Master Chen, your question is the best in the country. At least among all the words I've seen, yours is the best."

Chen Shengfei looked at the word and frowned.

Something didn't feel right. Why did it feel different?

Master Chen Fengwu was stunned. He looked at the words 'Qinglin Villa' in disbelief.

Had he really written those words?

Even if he used a brush to write on paper, it would not have such a lively feeling. Why was it that the words printed on the signboard were so lively?

He liked it when he saw it himself. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was number one.

"Did I perform extraordinarily last time? Did I hide my strength?" Master Chen Fengwu muttered to himself, trying hard to recall the state of his inscription last time.

He seemed to have drunk. When he received Chen Shengfei's call, he took advantage of the alcohol and casually wrote four words. He didn't know which trash can he had thrown the original copy into.

After being entertained by Boss Qin at the villa, he was too embarrassed to say it.

But who knew that his perfunctory writing was so good?

Could it be that he had opened up a new world? Drinking and being drunk could improve his calligraphy?

Master Chen Fengwu was suddenly eager to return.

Chapter 235

"The inscription on the sign is signed by Master Chen Fengwu. Does anyone know who this is?"

"Master Chen Fengwu's handwriting is so good. That's the essence of culture. A real master, not like all the others…"

"I suddenly feel like begging Master Chen Fengwu."

"You probably don't have the right to ask for words of that level."

"…"

The surrounding chatter made Chen Fengwu feel a little embarrassed.

He could not yet accept these compliments.

After all, he wasn't even sure if he could write at this level when he was half drunk.

However, Qin Lin knew very well what was going on. The reason why the words were so agile was because of the system's enhancement effect.

Some of the tourists who knew their stuff had already exclaimed in surprise:

"Eh, this sign seems to be made of rosewood!"

"Rosewood. You can tell that from this distance?"

"I've studied rosewood. Look, there's a grimace mark in the corner of the sign."

"It really does. It's only rosewood that produces these clear-eyed grimace lines."

"…"

Chen Shengfei and Ma Liewen were even more surprised.

They also saw the ghostly lines in the corner of the sign.

Even though they knew that Qin Lin had a rosewood channel and even used it to build a big desk in his office, they did not expect that Qin Lin would also use rosewood to build this signboard.

"The clarity and completion of this ghost face. Qin Lin, this signboard is quite valuable, right?" Chen Shengfei couldn't help but ask curiously.

The ghost face pattern was a natural gift from nature to rosewood. It was one of the unique wood patterns of rosewood, which was that the texture of the tree was like a ghost face.

This was formed by the rosewood trunks competing with each other to devour the package.

The trunk and texture of the rosewood itself would also have a great impact on the ghost face patterns. Some powerful people could also determine the age and value of the rosewood through the ghost face patterns.

It was also because of this ghost face pattern that the officials had reminded the buyers of the need to be cautious.

Nowadays, many black-hearted businessmen would artificially carve ghost-face patterns and forge rosewood. Ordinary people would not be able to tell them apart.

Qin Lin didn't hide Chen Shengfei's question and said generously, "This signboard alone costs 500,000 yuan."

"This signboard weighs about 20 catties. Doesn't that mean that this rosewood weighs more than 20,000 yuan per catty…" Chen Shengfei looked at Qin Lin strangely.

Was he using top-grade rosewood to build a signboard? Was he going to leave it here in the wind and sun in the future?

This was definitely way too capricious for someone who liked rosewood.

Ma Liewen suddenly asked, "Qin Lin, you want two signs at the two entrances of your villa. Don't tell me the other one is also…?"

Qin Lin nodded. "Yes! Two of the same specifications."

Ma Liewen couldn't help but glance at Old Chen.

How f*cking willful and extravagant.

"Let's go and sit in the original hall. I've prepared a lot of delicious food for everyone for lunch." Qin Lin also invited Chen Shengfei and the others.

Li Qing smiled and said, "Actually, you don't have to prepare too much. Just cook a little yourself."

This was echoed by others.

After eating the fish and eel made by Qin Lin, it was really tempting.

When Qin Lin brought them to the original hall, there were already many people inside.

Lin Fen was helping to entertain Uncle Shuigen, Uncle Dashan, and his friends. Chen Xiao was also helping her.

It was a good day at the villa. Lin Fen was naturally very happy to have invited these relatives and friends to gather. At the same time, she was proud of her son.

Chen Xiao was equally proud. A son-in-law was equivalent to half a son. She followed Lin Fen and treated everyone well.

On the other side, there were also Hu Fei, Zhang Shi, Lin Feng, and the others who had business dealings. Gao Yaoyao was also serving them with two waiters.

When Qin Lin entered, everyone looked at him. After all, he was the main character today.

Especially Zhang Shi, Lin Feng, and the others. They immediately looked at Qin Lin.

The villa was their main channel now. President Qin was the God of Wealth that they had to protect.

"Boss Qin, congratulations!" Chen Li brought his secretary, Zhong Lei, over and congratulated him sincerely.

Qinglin Villa was built step by step under his attention. As a supervisor and leader, he felt a sense of accomplishment.

Although the development of this villa did not have much to do with him, he did not run fewer errands for this villa.

Qin Lin said with a smile, "Chief Chen, let me treat you well at noon."

Chen Li smiled and said, "Boss Qin, next time. I have something to discuss with you today. I still have to report to Sun Xian later."

"Chief Chen, let's find a seat and talk." Qin Lin also invited Chen Li to a quieter table in the corner.

Chen Shengfei, Ma Liewen, and the others all knew Chen Li's identity. Seeing this, they also went to find their seats.

After Qin Lin invited Chen Li to sit down, he said, "Chief Chen, what do you want to discuss?"

Chen Li explained, "Boss Qin, the county is planning to set up a food street and gather some of our Youcheng County's specialties on that street. This way, it can provide tourists with a better sightseeing experience and is also beneficial to the county's economy. The location of the food street is the old street that leads out of the city."

"This is a good thing." Qin Lin knew that Youcheng County still had many delicacies, such as meat loaf, frozen cake, black duck, braised tofu, squid powder, Wenfeng plate duck, dumplings, long noodles, nine intestines, loach powder, pot batter, and so on.

Chapter 236

These were all Youcheng County specialties. Many of the old shops had superb taste. Unfortunately, they were scattered all over Youcheng County. If they could gather all these delicacies together and build a food street, it would definitely be a huge specialty. Not only would it attract tourists, but it would also promote their Youcheng County food culture.

Chen Li said a little embarrassedly, "The county wants to ask Qinlin Villa for help. When the time comes, we'll set up a sign for the food street at the entrance of the mountain villa. At the same time, we want to ask if the Qinglin Mountain's announcement board and announcement board can also join the food street segment? The county will pay for the relevant advertising fees."

After all, the food street was based on Qinglin Villa.

This matter really required the cooperation of Qinglin Villa.

"Chief Chen, this is a good thing. Our villa will cooperate with the county." Qin Lin agreed readily. This was a win-win situation.

Having lived in Youcheng County since he was young, he knew that there were many delicacies in his hometown. Otherwise, he wouldn't have specially chosen Youcheng County to film back then.

If the food street was advertised well, it would definitely become an attraction. After all, there were many foodies. In the future, there might be tourists who come to the villa because of the food street.

As for the food court affecting the restaurant business at the villa? That was impossible.

Now that there were more than 3,000 villa tourists a day, how many people could the villa restaurant and buffet barbecue receive?

The other tourists basically entered the county to eat. Fortunately, the county had specially opened up a bus route from the county to the villa. There was one every 20 minutes.

In the future, when the comprehensive Sea of Flowers and pasture were built, the number of tourists would increase. Not to mention a food street, if there were a few more, the villa restaurant and buffet barbecue would be overcrowded.

Chen Li was naturally very happy to receive Qin Lin's answer.

To be honest, Youcheng County was really lucky to have such a Boss Qin. He had already promoted many aspects of Youcheng County's development.

The leaders of Sand City and Tian City were now a little envious of Youcheng County.

After chatting with Qin Lin for a while, Chen Li was anxious to report back to the county.

At this moment, the kitchen began to serve.

Qin Lin stood up and walked towards Hu Fei, Zhang Shi, Lin Cong, Wang Wei, and the others who were working with the villa.

He naturally had to greet them.

Seeing Qin Lin come over, Lin Cong, Zhang Shi, and the others stood up immediately and greeted him warmly.

"President Qin…"

"Here's to you, President Qin…"

"…"

All of them looked respectful.

With Qin Lin's current wealth and status, even if they did not have a cooperative relationship, they still had to greet Qin Lin respectfully, not to mention that Qin Lin was now their God of Wealth.

Qin Lin smiled and poured himself a glass of wine. Then, he said to these people, "Everyone, I don't really know how to drink. I'll have a drink with everyone and let everyone enjoy themselves."

"As you wish, President Qin!"

"Yes, President Qin, feel free…"

"…"

Lin Feng, Zhang Shi, and the others spoke again.

This was the advantage of having an absolute advantage in the business world. If he didn't want to drink, they could only drink among themselves.

If he was at a disadvantage and didn't want to drink, the other party would simply say, "You're not giving me face? Do you still want to cooperate?" Then, he would have to give his all and drink to his fill.

Qin Lin took one drink with these people before walking to the other side.

"Xiao Lin, sit here!" When Lin Fen saw Qin Lin coming over, she hurriedly greeted him. She had already reserved a seat for him.

Qin Lin sat down and greeted his friends and family.

Zhao Moyun suddenly asked, "Qin Lin, is that Chief Chen from the county's Tourism Bureau?"

When Qin Lin heard his brother-in-law's words, he hurriedly nodded. "That's right!"

Zhao Moyun said, "I heard from Uncle that this person seems to be about to be promoted. He's in charge of the deputy county."

These words attracted the attention of Qin Ergen, Qin Dalin, and the others. To ordinary people like them, this kind of official was definitely a big shot.

However, anyone could tell that the person who spoke to Qin Lin was very polite.

Lin Zi was really more capable than they had imagined.

Qin Lin didn't expect Chen Li to be promoted. He thought for a moment and said to Qin Dalin, "Uncle Dalin, you own a snack bar (Chapter 26). How's the snack bar business now?"

Qin Dalin smiled and explained, "Business is alright. There are more people in Youcheng County now, and there are many tourists in my shop who are here for Qinglin Villa."

Qin Lin nodded and said, "Uncle Dalin, the county wants to set up a food street on the old street outside the city. At that time, the traffic will definitely gather there."

He could see that after the county set up this food street, the tourists who could not eat at the mountain villa would definitely be there first.

The business there would far surpass the rest of Youcheng County. One could imagine how popular it would be.

Uncle Dalin worked in a snack bar, so he didn't mind giving this information to the other party. After all, a favor was a lifetime debt. As for what choice he would make, it would be up to Uncle Dalin.

Qin Dalin was stunned when he heard this. Then, he realized the importance of this news and immediately said, "Lin Zi, come, let me toast you."

He knew very well that once the food street was done, he would definitely be able to earn money by opening a shop there. He had obtained the initiative and had a chance to get a good location in the old neighborhood.

It was just that he didn't have enough funds. He had to close the store and go out. It was a pity that the original store had just been renovated. However, compared to the business that would come after the food court was done, this loss was nothing.

He had never thought of borrowing money from Qin Lin. After all, it was enough for him to obtain this information. Unless he was at the end of his rope or waiting for someone to save him, borrowing money again would be too much.

Chapter 237

Qin Shuigen reminded him, "Dalin, the county wants to set up this food street. Don't spread the news in advance, lest you cause trouble for Lin Zi and the county."

Qin Dalin hurriedly said, "I know. I'm not stupid."

Soon, the dishes were served one after another. It was time for lunch at the villa.

The restaurant and buffet barbecue area was already bustling with activity. As for tourists who did not have seats, they could only take the bus to eat in the county.

The most lively one was the window that was specially used to receive benefits. When Wang Yang arrived, there was already a long queue in front of the window. They all spent 200 yuan to receive benefits.

He had thought that he would collect the benefits first, then get Su Juan to pay the bill and collect again. It seemed that he had been thinking too much. The others were not fools.

When it was Wang Yang's turn, he immediately went forward with his identity card.

Today, the villa's payment would be synchronized with the identity card information, and the benefits would also be obtained with the identity card. No one could repeatedly receive them.

Finally.

He received a portion of Qinglin Medicine Wine for hemorrhoids.

Yes, he had hemorrhoids too.

He had been to the hospital. The doctor had told him that abnormal sex could also cause it. He had to restrain himself.

But how could someone like him, who frequented nightclubs, restrain himself? That was why he had never been cured.

He knew how effective the medicinal wine in Qinglin Villa was to nourish the kidneys and strengthen the body. Therefore, he was looking forward to this medicinal wine to treat hemorrhoids.

After receiving his benefits, he headed for the buffet barbecue area. Today, he'd rented a barbecue spot with Su Juan. He didn't know how to barbecue, but Su Juan had said she wanted him to taste her cooking.

After finding his barbecue spot, Wang Yang watched as Su Juan busied herself in front of the grill. Plates of grilled food had already been placed on the table beside her. It looked very appetizing.

This woman had that in her?

For a moment, he looked at her dressed in ladylike clothes and her light makeup. He was actually lost in thought for a moment, as if he had seen his first love in university.

This made him shake his head hurriedly. If he hadn't been sure that he knew Su Juan from the nightclub and that she had served him well during the night, he would have believed that he had made a mistake.

"Brother Yang, what are you looking at?" Su Juan noticed his gaze.

"Looking at you, a beautiful woman." Wang smiled and said bluntly, "Suddenly I find that you've become my ideal type. I seem to have fallen for you."

His ideal type was his first love. Unfortunately…

Su Juan was very touched by Wang Yang's words. "Brother Yang, you only know how to coax me. Come and try my cooking."

Wang Yang nodded and sat down. He picked up a roasted chicken wing and ate it. He realized that it tasted really good.

Next, he took out the medicinal wine he had received and poured himself a small glass.

Su Juan asked, "Brother Yang, is this the medicinal wine for hemorrhoids?"

"Yes!" Wang Yang nodded.

"Brother Yang, I'll have one too," Su Juan said immediately, blushing and embarrassed. She obviously had hemorrhoids too.

Wang Yang obviously understood and gave her a cup too.

They clinked glasses and ate the barbecue in one gulp. But as they ate, they suddenly looked at each other.

Because the medicinal wine had taken effect so quickly.

"Ahh!" Su Juan made a comfortable, seductive sound, then blushed. "Do you feel it, Brother Yang?"

"Yes!" Wang Yang nodded in surprise.

Although he had looked forward to this medicinal wine, he had never expected it to be so effective and so fast.

This was definitely good stuff, a boon for hemorrhoids patients. No wonder Professor Ren had said in the video that the wine might have some scientific denaturation element.

Thinking of this, he took out his phone and opened a certain voice. He logged into the "Knife Beats People" account. He had tested it himself. As a hardcore fan of the villa, he naturally wanted to post a video to prove it.

However, when he got onto the trending list, he realized that there was no need for him to post a video to prove it.

This was because there were already two trending videos about Qinglin Villa on the trending list. One of them was about the Qinglin Medicine Wine.

Many tourists who had already experienced it posted the video immediately.

Due to the incident with Professor Ren and Qinglin Villa, this hemorrhoid medicine wine had a lot of attention. A few of the videos immediately became trending.

However, what really attracted Wang Yang's attention was not this trending topic, but another trending topic that was even more popular than the medicinal wine: "A new way to get rich has been added. Qinglin Villa has stolen a signboard!"

Chapter 238

The matter between Professor Ren and Qinglin Villa caused a huge commotion online.

Although the people who were taking advantage of the popularity and posting videos were afraid of taking responsibility and deleted the videos one after another, it did not mean that the popularity of this matter had passed. Instead, everyone paid more attention to the medicinal wine used to treat hemorrhoids.

Therefore, after those tourists posted the effects of the Qinglin Medicine Wine on the Internet, it immediately became a trending topic.

However, it was expected that the Qinglin Medicine Wine would be trending. The two signs of Qinglin Villa were also trending. No one had expected it.

After all, most people's initial thought was that those were just two signs.

However, the sign board that Qinglin Villa had changed to had a system attribute enhancement. Tourists who saw the signboard would inevitably be attracted by the system attribute attached to it. Naturally, someone would take a video and upload it online.

The reason why the sign board could be on the trending searches was because of an Internet celebrity blogger called 'King of Plaques.'

King of Plaques was a boss who specialized in collecting all kinds of antique plaques and customizing them. He seemed to be very rich.

Wang Yang clicked on the trending topic of Qinglin Villa's signboard and saw the video of this signboard:

"Qinglin Villa has been very popular for the past two days. Everyone has been paying attention to the Qinglin Medicine Wine, but everyone seems to have forgotten that today is Qinglin Villa's event. Qinglin Villa's signboard is the main focus. The medicine wine is just a bonus."

"Think about it, everyone. The medicinal wine that serves as a foil is already so valuable. A benefit is equivalent to 3,600 yuan. Then today's signboard is the main character. How much is it worth?"

Seeing this, Wang Yang was stunned.

That's right. He had also focused all his attention on the medicinal wine. He didn't seem to have noticed that the signboard of Qinglin Villa was the main character today.

He had seen the sign when he and Su Juan arrived at the villa. It was very artistic and the handwriting was very beautiful. He had been attracted to it.

But at that time, his mind was filled with the matter of receiving benefits, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

King of Plaques said, "I've carefully watched the videos posted by the tourists. I've also spent money to contact a tourist to appraise the signboard of Qinglin Villa. The signboard of Qinglin Villa is not simple. It's all made of rosewood."

"Some people might not know much about rosewood, but that's not important. You just have to know that cheap rosewood costs a few thousand yuan per catty, and the more expensive rosewood can be more than 20,000 yuan per catty. However, the signboard at Qinglin Villa is the kind that costs more than 20,000 yuan per catty."

"Judging from the sign, it should weigh more than 20 catties. In other words, the rosewood material of this sign is worth more than 500,000 yuan, but there are two signs like Qinglin Villa. One for each entrance."

When Wang Yang saw this, he exclaimed, "Damn, it's so expensive?"

He had some money. He was willing to spend a million yuan to buy a car. However, he wouldn't even think about spending a million yuan to make a sign to hang at the door.

It wasn't something most people thought about, either.

The owner of the villa really knew how to play. Moreover, he played really high-end.

The video was not over. The voice continued:

"Naturally, this is the price of the materials for the signboard itself. However, everyone has seen the inscription on the signboard? The words are very good and very agile. Although I didn't know who this Master Chen Fengwu was in the past, he will soon become famous."

"His inscription level is indeed very high, but how high? Let me make a comparison for everyone. Do you see the two inscribed plaques behind me?"

Wang Xiang noticed the two inscribed plaques behind King of Plaques in the video. One of the plaques had two words on it, and the other four words were written with utmost kindness and sincerity.

King of Plaques continued, "These two horizontal boards are part of my fine collection. They are the inscriptions of Master Fan from the National Calligraphy Association. Two square feet are priced at 300,000 yuan, four square feet are priced at four words, and 600,000 yuan."

"Without a doubt, the inscription on the two plaques in my hand is also inferior to Master Chen Fengwu's. Therefore, the value of the sign in Qinglin Villa is at least 600,000 yuan, which is 500,000 yuan+600,000 yuan. A total of 1.1 million yuan. However, there are two signs."

"Now, Qinglin Villa has hung these two signs at the entrance. If a thief steals these two signs, it will be at least 2.2 million yuan. We'll be rich soon."

It was this video that made Qinglin Villa's signboard trending.

Even Wang Yang, who was not short of money, was shocked by the price, let alone those ordinary people.

The comments section of this video was also very lively.

Yun Yu: "Oh my god, someone told me that there's a suite hanging at the entrance of Qinglin Villa."

Opened My Eyes For the Second Time: "If I hadn't seen this video, I wouldn't have thought that the sign in Qinglin Villa would be so valuable."

Dark Wind 1998: "After knowing the value of these two signs, I suddenly feel that the level of Qinglin Villa has increased by a few levels."

Mountain of Onions: "Mom, I've made something of myself. I can go and play in a place with a sign that costs over two million."

I'm a Sucker: "Brothers, two signs for 2.2 million yuan. Here's my chance to make a fortune. I'll take the lead. Anyone sign up?"

Flash Emblem I'm a Sucker: "Brother, bring me along."

I'm a Sucker Flash Emblem: "Good brother, leave your contact information. If we steal this sign and sell it for money, we'll get two AKs. We'll grow big and strong and create glory."

When Wang Yang saw this comment, he couldn't help but complain, "There are idiots every year. They still want to buy AKs to make it big and strong. Do they think they're filming a movie?"

Following this trending topic, Qinglin Villa's signboard indeed became popular. Many tourists in the villa also saw the video.

Chapter 239

As Wang Yang was eating, he saw a couple rushing past.

"Hurry up and take a video at the entrance of the villa. Someone has already uploaded the video under the sign."

"Don't be too hasty. That sign isn't going anywhere."

When Wang Yang heard this, he put away his phone and said to Su Juan, "Baby, let's eat quickly. After eating, we'll take a video and post it on our Moments. Otherwise, we'll have come for nothing."

He could almost foresee that after the value of Qinglin Villa's signboard was exposed, the two entrances to the villa would become a must-have for tourists.

Later, tourists might line up at the door.

It was a sign for at least 1.1 million yuan, after all. That counted as an expensive art collection, didn't it?

And how many ordinary people had ever seen a sign of this value?

Who wouldn't subconsciously want to take a video or take a photo of such a signboard and post it on their Moments?

After all, they had taken a picture with a sign worth at least 1.1 million, right?

If they came to Qinglin Villa to play in the future and did not take a video under this sign board, others would feel that they had suffered a loss.

When Wang Yang finished his barbecue and brought Su Juan to the entrance of the villa, he was dumbfounded.

There was already a long line there. It was packed.

…

Time passed.

Soon it was evening.

In Qin Lin's office, Zhao Moqing was hugged by Qin Lin the moment he entered.

The door clicked shut behind him.

"Qin Lin, I'm here to talk business with you." Zhao Moqing rolled her eyes at Qin Lin.

"You can still talk if you sit on my lap." Qin Lin smiled proudly. He carried Zhao Moqing and sat down, placing her on his lap.

Zhao Moqing really could not do anything about this man. "Why do you always like to do this in the office?"

Qin Lin smiled and said meaningfully, "This is called office ambience. If you really wear a tight OL suit and a pair of sexy stockings…"

"What a mess. What are you thinking?" Zhao Moqing interrupted Qin Lin with a red face. She even pinched his waist in embarrassment before snorting. "Have you seen the news on the Internet? Our villa's two signs are also popular. You didn't even say that those two signs are worth at least 2.2 million."

Qin Lin had naturally seen the video and explained, "Master Chen Fengwu's writing doesn't cost money. King of Plaques doesn't know about it."

Although he knew very well why the words were so lively, Master Chen Fengwu would undoubtedly become famous this time. His writing would probably become very valuable.

However, Zhao Moqing said worriedly, "Even if Master Chen Fengwu wrote it out of friendship, everyone on the Internet knows that our signboard is worth at least 2.2 million yuan. Someone even suggested forming a team to steal our signboard."

"We know that's a joke, but we have to be on our guard. Therefore, it's not safe to send someone to stand guard at the entrance. It's best to send two people to stand guard together at night."

"You can just arrange this." Qin Lin smiled and nodded. Then, he asked, "How are the benefits that are being given out?"

Zhao Moqing explained, "It has long been claimed by others. There isn't even any sandalwood incense powder left. Although something happened to Professor Ren, there were still a lot of people who came today. Just in terms of the number of people, it wouldn't be less than the previous Supreme Set event."

"But now everyone's paying attention to the sign boards and the medicinal wine used to treat hemorrhoids. No one's paying attention to the sandalwood incense powder."

Qin Lin smiled and said, "That's because no one has used it yet. When someone uses it at night, they will know that it's good stuff."

"Yes!" Zhao Moqing nodded, but she suddenly realized that Qin Lin's hand had entered her clothes.

She couldn't help but glare at him. "We're at the villa. Can't you behave? Do whatever you want when we get home tonight."

"Just for a while." Qin Lin smiled.

"Hmph!" Zhao Moqing could only snort again and let the hand go.

After a while, Zhao Moqing walked out of Qin Lin's office with a slightly red face. In the future, she would definitely not spoil this fellow. He was getting more and more overboard.

In the office, Qin Lin was rather pleased to see Zhao Moqing leave with a red face.

He just enjoyed this ambiguous office atmosphere and also enjoyed Zhao Moqing's tense body.

As for anything more outrageous, he knew his place. He wouldn't be so frivolous with his wife.

…

In the darkness of the villa.

Just as Qin Lin had expected, the tourists who received the sandalwood incense had already begun to study it.

Wang Yang led Su Juan into the bridal chamber, eager to try the effects of the sandalwood incense.

He had not received the benefit of the sandalwood incense, but he had money. If he spent money to buy it from the tourists who received it, there would always be something for sale. He had even managed to buy several of them.

The tourists did not pay much attention to this thing. They bought one for just over 200 yuan.

Although he had no problem sleeping, he always wanted to experience something good.

"Wang Yang?"

When Wang Yang walked into his bedroom, a questioning voice sounded from the other side.

Wang Yang turned around and saw a bespectacled man with a laptop in the opposite courtyard. He couldn't help but be surprised. "Wan Gu?"

This was his university classmate. The other party's name left a deep impression on him. It was rare to see someone with the surname Wan. It was also strange to have a name like Wan Gu.

"Is it really you?" Wan Gu stepped out in surprise.

Wang Yang nodded. "Old classmate, long time no see. What are you doing now?"

Wan Gu explained, "I used to like reading novels, but now I'm writing novels. I'm constantly being urged by my readers to update and send blade slices, causing me to be mentally weak and have serious insomnia. This time, when I saw that the sandalwood incense powder in Qinglin Villa could help me sleep, I came over to collect a portion and even bought a few portions with other tourists."

Chapter 240

"Smart man," Wang Yang praised with a smile. Then he asked, "By the way, add me on WeChat. Let's contact each other when you're free."

Wan Gu nodded and added Wang Yang on WeChat before entering his bridal chamber.

After closing the door, he took out the incense powder he had collected. A plate for burning incense had been placed in the bridal chamber beforehand. The villa had obviously been prepared.

He lit the sandalwood incense, then took out his notebook and began to write. He hadn't finished the chapter for the day.

But before he could write a few hundred words, he felt an incredible wave of sleepiness wash over him. He actually yawned, which surprised him.

It had been a long time since he felt so sleepy at night. It was as if he could fall asleep at any time.

This sandalwood actually worked. And it was even more effective than those over-the-counter sleeping pills.

Wan Gu missed this sleepiness very much. He decisively closed his notebook. He could only let his readers down today.

In the bridal room opposite, Su Juan also came out of the shower. She put on a sexy nightgown that she had specially prepared. She was sure that Brother Yang would pounce on her when he saw this nightgown.

However, when she came out this time, she realized that Wang Yang was already lying down and yawning. It was as if the sexy nightgown she had specially prepared was not attractive at all.

On a nearby cabinet, wisps of white smoke rose from burning sandalwood incense.

"Brother Yang!" Su Juan pushed Wang Yang coquettishly.

He yawned and said, "Baby, the incense is really effective. I'm very sleepy now and can't muster up the energy to f*ck you. Why don't we sleep first?"

Su Juan could only pout and lie in Wang Zhang's arms. She was a little disappointed that her careful preparations did not work. However, she also felt a little sleepy and yawned.

She was also surprised. In the past, she had been in high spirits at this hour. It was impossible to sleep with a fixed biological clock.

This sandalwood incense seemed to really help her sleep. It was so effective.

That night, the two of them went to bed early, and slept easily.

…

At night.

When Qin Lin, Zhao Moqing, and his mother left the villa, Zhao Moqing was driving. Qin Lin was pulled by Li Qing to drink some wine.

As soon as he got in the car, he took out his phone and scrolled through the video of the villa. Seeing that nothing else had happened, he leaned back in the car and looked at the screen in his mind. Once again, he controlled the game character to go to Mount Notre Dame.

He had been too busy today to go into the mountains to take a look.

The mountain goods had not been cleared, but all the trees had been refreshed.

However, they did not refresh any valuable variety trees. They were all ordinary trees. The wood materials were not of much value in reality.

These trees had to be cut down. Otherwise, they would occupy the respawning spot.

After cutting down the trees, Qin Lin controlled some characters to go back to the ranch and sell all the wood materials on them in the game. Then, he controlled the game characters to enter the game's house.

But as soon as he entered the house, the NPC, Zach, reappeared:

[Your ranch has been doing well lately. The shipments are starting to increase, stimulating the town's economy. Now that the town has established a network, do you want to buy a network receiver? With a network receiver, you can do TV shopping!]

Qin Lin was really surprised. Surprises sometimes come so suddenly.

He did not expect this to trigger the plot.

In Ranches Story, items could be obtained from mining. NPCs could obtain things. They could also obtain things from various competitions, watch television, and shop.

It was just that each version of the TV shopping time was specific and different. The shopping time for each version was also different. For example, the original Ore Town version was Saturday.

In the new version, he had already controlled the game character to try it many times in front of the television. Unfortunately, every time, it was in the shape of snowflakes. It did not look like it could be used for television shopping at all.

He'd thought the new edition didn't have this feature. Now he knew why. It was because there was no Internet.

This new version actually needed to buy a network receiver to be able to make television purchases?

In reality, without the Internet, one could not go online. Wasn't it bad enough for ordinary people to be bullied by those operators? They actually had to have such restrictions in the game.

This stupid planner.

Qin Lin controlled the character selection.

In the end, Zach took away his handful of game gold coins and left happily, with a message from the game itself:

[Congratulations on obtaining a network receiver. The network has been opened!]

Qin Lin immediately controlled his game character to head to the television. This time, the television no longer lit up with snowflakes but an image. On the television was a pair of exquisite long legs with a pair of black lace stockings.

[Today is a stocking shopping special. Now we're selling the sexy style that female celebrity Dilraba likes. This stocking is very tear-resistant and seductive. It can hook…]

When Qin Lin saw the notification, he immediately controlled some characters to buy it.

Those stockings were indeed sexy. Even the cartoon patterns were seductive.

Naturally, stockings were not important. He just wanted to know if the things bought online on television could also bring out reality.

[Congratulations on buying a pair of sexy stockings online. Please wait patiently for the delivery!]

This was like the old version. The purchases didn't arrive immediately. He had to wait for delivery.

Qin Lin controlled the game character to continue clicking on the television. The image popped up again. It was still the stocking special. It was the same stocking as before and there were no changes.

He tried several more times, with the same result.

It seemed that there were not many improvements in the new game. It only refreshed the available items once.

He wondered when the stockings would arrive.

Game time was not proportional to reality. When he arrived home, with the time ratio in the game, the delivery should have arrived, right?

As expected, when Qin Lin brought Zhao Moqing and his mother home, there was movement in the game.

[Congratulations on receiving an online-TV stocking delivery!]

Qin Lin subconsciously looked at Zhao Moqing's legs and immediately went to the toilet. He locked the door and eagerly entered the game.

Naturally, he just wanted to experiment with whether television shopping could bring out reality.

Chapter 241

Qin Lin locked the door and appeared in the game with a thought. He saw the package.

It looked no different from a real delivery package, but when he saw the delivery slip, he was stunned.

From: Olive Town

Product: Special sexy stockings from Olive Town.

"It's actually from Olive Town?" Qin Lin asked in surprise.

This new game was clearly an adaptation of Ore Town. The game characters had appeared at Ore Town's ranch.

And Olive Town was another version after Ore Town.

Now that the game characters were shopping on TV, they were actually buying stockings from Olive Town?

Was this a dream combination created by the game designer when he was developing it? Or was it because of the system?

Qin Lin didn't dwell on this now. He would know if it was a dream link after going to the game forum. If it was a dream link planned by the game company, many players would definitely discover this surprise.

If it was because of the system, that would be interesting. After all, there were a lot of good things in other versions of Ranches Story. They might all be available through TV shopping.

Qin Lin thought about it and took a small knife to open the package.

The stockings were lace-black. Although they were still unopened through the packaging, he knew from the lace and the light that they were his type. They were definitely sexy.

[Sexy stockings: Quality 1]

[This is a very sexy stocking. It's an elaborate product from Olive Town: texture +1, comfort +1, sexiness +1, seduction +1, hook desire+1, tear resistance +1, tear excitement +1!]

Seeing the note on the stocking, Qin Lin inexplicably smiled.

He had previously wondered if the silk thread processing machine had a chance to process a Quality 1 silk stocking and what attributes it would have.

He did not expect to buy Quality 1 stockings online on television.

Besides, weren't these attributes what stockings should have?

Not to mention the texture and comfort.

Sexiness and seduction were added exactly to the right attribute points.

Tearing was not a good attribute, but adding the tearing excitement attribute seemed to be very fun.

Qin Lin took the stockings and eagerly logged out of the game. Naturally, he was just anxious to verify if the things online could be brought to reality.

It turned out to be possible, so he went back to the bedroom immediately and locked the door.

A moment later, Zhao Moqing came out of the bathroom in her pajamas.

"Here." Qin Lin pretended to casually hand the stockings in the game to Zhao Moqing.

"Stockings?" Zhao Moqing was puzzled.

"Yes, I bought it for you to see if it's suitable. If it's not, I'll return it." Qin Lin looked forward to it.

It was not that he had never seen Zhao Moqing wearing stockings, nor had he never torn them.

But this was a game with additional attributes, right?

"Why would a man like you buy stockings? I can buy…" As Zhao Moqing spoke, she opened the package and saw that it was actually a sexy design. She rolled her eyes at Qin Lin. "Men…"

Qin Lin said with a sly smile, "Try it. Let's see how sexy my wife looks in it."

"Hmph!" Zhao Moqing snorted proudly and sat down to put it on.

At home, if a man wanted to be ridiculous, so be it. After all, a married couple needed some romance.

"This silk is good. It's very comfortable to wear," Zhao Moqing said in surprise.

After all, it was texture +1, comfort +1.

A moment later, Qin Lin pounced forward.

…

The night passed.

The next day, Qin Lin woke up satisfied. He was just a little tired from last night.

However, the combination of tearing +1 and tearing excitement +1 was really exciting. Therefore, he immediately looked at the screen in his mind to control the game character to go to the television to buy a few more pairs.

But this time when they got to the TV, it was showing a newscast. It wasn't a shopping show at all.

The new version of the shopping show was also apparently refreshed at random.

Qin Lin was vexed. Why didn't he buy more pairs yesterday?

All he could do now was wait for the shopping show to refresh again. He just didn't know if it would be stockings next time, if not how soon it would be refreshed again.

Zhao Moqing also woke up.

Men get tired after a night of fun. Women never do.

"You're awake?" Qin Lin came back to his senses and looked at her with a smile. "I'll buy a few more pairs of stockings for you when I have time."

Zhao Moqing rolled her eyes at him. "Mom should be up. I'll get up and help her cook porridge."

She got up and changed, then picked up the tattered stocking and dropped it in the trash.

This was the first time she had seen Qin Lin so excited last night.

Qin Lin looked at Zhao Moqing's legs and wanted more. Then, he looked at the screen in his mind that controlled the game character to pick today's crops.

After he was done, he picked up his phone and logged into a certain voice to scroll through a few videos. After scrolling through a few videos, he realized that there was something about the villa. Moreover, there was indeed a mention of sandalwood incense.

After a night, those who had used it would definitely know the effect. When faced with that effect, they would definitely want to post it on their WeChat Moments and share it.

Indeed, early in the morning, surprised voices sounded in the bridal chamber of Qinglin Villa.

"You slept so well last night."

"Indeed. I'm just here to give it a try. I didn't expect the incense in Qinglin Villa to be so effective."

"I haven't slept so soundly in a long time."

"…"

Those who stayed in the bridal chamber last night and did not choose the other two medicinal wine benefits basically received the benefits of sandalwood incense powder.

Chapter 242

After all, the bridal chamber cost 350 yuan a night. As long as they booked the bridal chamber, they would have spent 200 yuan and could receive benefits for free.

Wan Gu woke up early in the morning and stretched lazily.

He had not slept so comfortably since he started writing novels. For the past month alone, he had only slept at 2 or 3 a.m.

He had a really comfortable sleep last night. What made him even happier was that the welfare incense he had received could be used more than ten times. The key was that he had even bought a few portions from other tourists who had received the incense powder.

The tourists who did not care about this were probably going to regret it.

After leaving the bridal chamber, he saw Wang Yang and Su Juan walking out of the bridal chamber opposite. Su Juan, who was dressed in female clothes and a naughty hat with light makeup, made him take a few more glances.

She looked like a very virtuous girl and was also beautiful. He was really envious of Wang Yang. How could he find such a girlfriend?

"Wan Gu, you're awake too?" Wang Yang saw Wan Gu and greeted him with a smile. "You slept very well last night, right?"

"Yes." Wan Gu nodded. "The effect is very strong. If only I could buy more and light some everyday. Insomnia is really very painful."

Wang Yang shook his head and said, "I know Qinglin Villa very well. Their things are usually very few or limited. It's very difficult to buy them."

Wan Gu asked, "It shouldn't be difficult to buy sandalwood on the market, right?"

Wang Yang teased, "There's a lot of sandalwood on the market, but have you seen anyone say that sandalwood is helpful for sleeping? It seems like it's been debunked by an expert professor in the past. It's also sandalwood, but there's also quality, right?"

As he spoke, he picked up his phone and opened Weibo. He logged into his account and wanted to send a video to share the effects of the sandalwood incense.

However, when he opened it, he was stunned to discover that the villa's sandalwood fragrance had already become a trending topic.

He was too late again.

"These people are so fast?" Wang Yang could not help but be stunned. In the end, he could only invite Wan Gu helplessly. "It's been a long time. Let's go for breakfast together. By the way, what book did you write? I'll go take a look and tip you."

…

The train station.

The two old men got out of the train early in the morning and walked to the waiting area.

"Old Ren, are you really not going to get someone to pick you up?"

"Old Liu, we don't have to trouble him. Let's take the car over."

These two people were Professor Ren and Professor Liu, who had been entrusted by Li Kai to be the middleman in Ming City.

The two young men followed the two professors with the briefcase in their hands.

They were experimental assistants to the two professors.

When Professor Ren arrived at the waiting area, he looked at the dense queue and was shocked. "Old Liu, did we sit at the wrong station? Is this really a station in a small county?"

Professor Liu explained, "You're so focused on doing experiments every day and don't pay attention to Qinglin Villa. There are more tourists than you think. They're famous in Ming City."

After a while, it was their turn. They got into two cars.

As soon as Professor Ren and Professor Liu got into the car, the middle-aged driver in the car asked, "Are you two going to Qinglin Villa?"

Professor Ren said in surprise, "You can tell?"

The driver started the car and smiled. "I see that the two of you are traveling light and have young lackeys behind you. Most people should be going to Qinglin Villa to play."

Professor Liu smiled and asked, "What if we're not going to Qinglin Villa?"

The driver smiled and said, "Then I'll suggest that the two of you go to Qinglin Villa to play. Now that you're in Youcheng County, if you've never been to Qinglin Villa, then you're not considered to have been here."

"Moreover, Qinglin Villa is indeed very fun. I've also brought my wife and daughter to see the Triangular Plum Blossom Sea. As a man, even I was mesmerized by the scenery of the Sea of Flowers. It's also very fun to drift… But at your age, I won't go to play."

"This Qinglin Villa seems really good." Professor Ren and Professor Liu looked at each other.

They were old and smart, so they could naturally tell that the driver's praise for Qinglin Villa was sincere.

However, the driver continued, "But you're a little late. If you had come yesterday, Qinglin Villa would have been lively. Moreover, there were benefits to receive. There was medicinal wine to nourish the kidneys and treat hemorrhoids, and incense powder to help sleep."

"If the two of you have been paying attention to the news on the Internet, you should know that these three things in Qinglin Villa are very effective. The tourists have already confirmed it. Several passengers I pulled in yesterday were very excited."

The driver clearly sounded proud.

Although he was not an employee of Qinglin Villa, he was also earning from this industrial chain affected by Qinglin Villa. Naturally, he had the mentality of a host.

"I also find it unbelievable that medicinal wine is actually effective in treating hemorrhoids," Professor Ren replied with a smile.

He had come to verify the effect of the Qinglin Medicine Wine. Firstly, it was for his scientific curiosity. Secondly, it was to completely resolve the misunderstanding with Qinglin Villa.

From the reaction online, the medicinal wine seemed to be very effective, but he still wanted to verify it himself.

The car soon arrived at Qinglin Villa.

After the two of them got out of the car, the driver kindly reminded them, "Brothers, remember to take photos and videos at the entrance of the villa. That sign board is made of top-notch Chinese rosewood. It's written by a top-notch master in the country, Chen Fengwu. It's worth more than a million yuan. It would be a waste not to clock in."

Chapter 243

"Okay, thank you, Master." Professor Ren smiled and waved goodbye to the driver. Then, he said to Professor Liu, "The driver of Youcheng County is very enthusiastic."

Professor Liu smiled and said, "He's not stupid. He relies on the tourists of Qinglin Villa to make a living. Besides, how much economy can so many tourists promote? If the leaders of Youcheng County aren't stupid, they'll definitely pay more attention to training in this area."

As they spoke, they walked into the villa and saw the sign.

At this moment, a long line had already been taken under the sign board. Tourists were queuing up to take photos, and there was a security guard beside them to maintain order.

Professor Liu smiled and teased, "We haven't entered the scenic area yet. This scene is really rare."

"This writing is indeed very good," Professor Ren praised.

As the two of them stepped forward, another security guard came over and reminded them, "Sirs, if you want to take a video and clock in, please queue up in order. If not, you can enter the villa directly from the two roads beside it."

Professor Ren and Professor Liu naturally weren't interested in the way these young people checked in at the scenic spot. They directly entered the villa from another path.

Professor Liu entered the villa and took out his phone to call Li Kai.

Early in the morning, Li Kai had already entered the backyard of the villa's original hall. He could see that there was already a shed in the backyard with some instruments inside.

The shed was built by Chen Dabei, and the equipment was arranged by his nephew, Li Qing, from the research institute.

This watermelon could grow out of season without relying on the greenhouse. It was very helpful to his experiments. Now, he comes over early every morning.

As he was extracting the chlorophyll from the watermelon vine, his phone rang. When he saw the number, he immediately picked it up. "Director Liu, it's so early. Don't tell me you've arrived at the villa?"

Professor Liu's voice sounded. "You're right. Professor Ren and I have arrived. We're at the entrance."

"I'll be right there." When Li Kai heard his superior's words, he immediately hung up and walked out. When he arrived at the entrance of the villa, he saw Professor Liu and Professor Ren. "Director Liu, Professor Ren."

Professor Liu immediately introduced, "Old Ren, this is Li Kai. He's an associate professor at my research institute and is already evaluating professors. He's just short of a thesis."

"You're young and promising," Professor Ren praised Li Kai with a smile.

Professor Liu also said, "Li Kai, I wonder if Boss Qin is free now? Old Ren wants to see him and see the medicinal wine for hemorrhoids."

Li Kai explained, "I don't know if Boss Qin has arrived at the villa at this time. After all, he's very busy. If Professor Ren wants to see that medicinal wine, I happened to receive a benefit yesterday. I can show it to Professor Ren first."

Naturally, he knew that Brother Qin should be at the villa's office now. However, he also knew the most about Professor Ren and Qinglin Villa.

He naturally wanted Professor Ren to know the effect of this medicinal wine first. After all, Professor Ren was an academic person, but sometimes, he would inexplicably fuss about it.

This was because he was such a person. If he let Professor Ren know the effect of this medicinal wine first, such an academic fuss could be avoided. After Professor Ren saw Brother Qin, he could only ask him for help, just like how he had asked to study watermelons previously.

He had experienced it himself, so he naturally knew how to deal with it.

"Alright, then bring me to take a look." Professor Ren did not think too much about it and immediately nodded.

"Professor Ren, please." Li Kai led the way and led Professor Ren and the others to the first bridal chamber.

Li Kai entered the bridal chamber and took out a 30ml bottle of medicinal wine. It was the benefit the villa had given to the tourists yesterday.

Li Kai handed the medicinal wine to Professor Ren. "Professor Ren, this is the Qinglin Medicinal Wine that can treat hemorrhoids. It's very effective."

At this moment, Professor Liu asked, "Old Ren, shall we find a place to take out the equipment we brought and verify this wine?"

Professor Ren shook his head and said, "There's no need for that. There's a faster way."

"?" Professor Liu looked puzzled.

Professor Ren opened the medicinal wine and poured it into his mouth.

Professor Liu instantly understood.

Chapter 244

As the saying went, nine out of 10 men and 10 out of 10 women had hemorrhoids. This meant that the rate of hemorrhoids was very high, and it was even harder to guard against it.

Furthermore, some professions that stood for a long time, sat for a long time, and had irregular schedules also had a higher rate of hemorrhoids than others, such as teachers, drivers, police officers, programmers, scientific researchers, and so on.

Professor Ren was a researcher.

Therefore, wasn't it easy to verify the effect?

He was using his own body to verify it. It could be considered a sacrifice for scientific research.

After drinking half of the 30ml of wine, Professor Ren stopped in surprise.

This was because the medicinal wine tasted surprisingly good, as if it was old. Then, he picked up the rest of the wine and drank it in one go.

When Li Kai saw that the 30ml of wine was gone just like that, his heart ached inexplicably.

That wine could be used three times.

After drinking the wine, Professor Ren said to the laboratory assistant behind him, "Help me calculate the time. I want to see the exact time this medicinal wine takes effect."

The tourists who posted videos online said that the effect was very strong and that it would work 'immediately'. However, they did not specify the time.

The assistant in the back immediately opened his briefcase when he heard the instructions. He took out an experiment log and a pen, then took out his phone to calculate the time.

But a moment later, Professor Ren looked shocked. "Um… let's write 'immediately' for the effective time."

He now knew what the tourists meant by "immediately".

This was really immediate.

Because he could already feel the effect behind it.

Now, he wanted to see how long it would take for the hemorrhoids to completely subside and improve.

"Professor Ren, then let's not just wait around. I'll bring you to the Sea of Flowers in the villa first?" Li Kai suggested at this moment.

According to his experience of drinking this wine (Chapter 151), Professor Ren's hemorrhoids would improve after touring the Sea of Flowers.

Professor Ren did not object. "Xiao Li, sorry to trouble you."

…

Qin Lin had gone a little crazy with Zhao Moqing last night because of the stimulation of the stockings.

He was still a little tired after breakfast today, so after moving his things out of the warehouse and to the villa, he made himself a cup of medicinal honey water.

Unfortunately, the medicinal honey water's attribute of relieving fatigue +2 was useless against his fatigue.

Weren't they all tired? How could there be a difference in treatment?

When he arrived at the office, Qin Lin lit up a little agarwood incense.

As the pleasant fragrance dissipated, he logged into the villa's application management program and checked a few public emails.

These public emails were either notices sent by Zhao Moqing or work reports summarized by the various departments yesterday or some applications.

There were some things he had to deal with, and he would deal with them immediately. After reading these public emails, he opened the website and logged into the forum for the new version of Ranches Story.

After discovering last night that the stockings for television shopping were actually produced by Olive Town, he wondered if it was a dream connection planned by the game company or because of the system.

This could be found in the game forum.

If it was a dream joint event planned by the game company, with the ability of those hardworking players, someone should have long discovered this joint event.

However, after logging into the forum, Qin Lin flipped through the pages but did not find any posts related to stockings and Olive Town.

In other words, this might not be a dream connection planned by the game company, but because of the system?

Qin Lin did not jump to conclusions. He posted another thread titled "You can buy stockings in Olive Town on television."

Someone quickly replied:

1st comment, Hollywood: Has the original poster worked hard enough to get a new Easter egg? There's no picture or evidence!

2nd comment, Heaven Supreme: I've already looped a list of television shopping. There are no stockings at all.

3rd comment, Red Dust Passerby: I think you're thinking too much about stockings. The game company doesn't seem to have the copyright to Olive Town. It's impossible to add elements of Olive Town.

…

Qin Lin looked at the increasing number of replies and could completely confirm that the products the game characters bought in Olive Town on television had nothing to do with the game company.

Then it really had something to do with the system.

He returned his attention to the game character in his mind and controlled it to go to the television.

This time, the television screen in the game turned into a news column:

[Recently, a rare fossil was discovered in Honey Village…]

"Honey Village?"

Honey Village was also a version of Ranches Story, like Olive Town.

There were also many good things in this version. Did this mean that he could buy them on television in the future?

As Qin Lin was thinking, he heard a knock on the office door. He immediately said, "Come in."

The office door opened and Li Kai walked in with four people.

Furthermore, he recognized Professor Ren behind him.

Was this person already here?

"Brother Qin, Professor Ren and Professor Liu from our institute are here." Li Kai entered the office and introduced them to Qin Lin.

Professor Ren was clearly stunned when he saw Qin Lin.

Although he had already heard from Li Kai that Boss Qin was very young, he was too young.

"Professor Ren, Professor Liu, welcome, welcome." Qin Lin immediately stood up and welcomed them into the office warmly.

People like Professor Ren and Elder Yuan were truly elders who were obsessed with scientific research, unlike those brick artists on the Internet who called themselves beasts.

Furthermore, not only did Professor Ren make a major contribution in the previous disaster, but he also became one of the praised heroes.

Chapter 245

He had also developed a drug that was not available domestically. As soon as this drug was released, it directly reduced the price of similar drugs domestically and abroad. Foreign drugs had no choice but to be covered by health insurance.

Countless people benefited from this.

Qin Lin always admired such people from the bottom of his heart.

"Boss Qin is really young and promising." Professor Liu sighed.

Professor Ren said in embarrassment, "Boss Qin, I'm really sorry about what happened online previously. I didn't know when the video was uploaded online."

"Professor Ren, since it's a misunderstanding, why mention the past?" Qin Lin immediately waved his hand and led Professor Ren and the others to the tea table. "Professor Ren, sit down. I'll make tea for you."

Li Kai sat down without hesitation. "Professor Ren, I told you that Brother Qin is a very open-minded person. He won't take the past to heart."

"I'm the one who's still caught up in it." Professor Ren smiled and nodded.

He could naturally tell that Boss Qin's attitude was not fake.

Sincerity could touch people. If it was an act, he could tell at a glance.

Professor Liu looked at Qin Lin, who was focused on making tea, and could not help but praise, "There aren't many young people like Boss Qin."

Professor Ren nodded in agreement.

After the two professors sat down, they soon smelled the pleasant fragrance floating in the office. They even felt that the mental fatigue from the entire journey was gone. Their bodies were comfortable, and they felt refreshed.

This made the two of them look at each other and guess that this must be the top-notch incense. Boss Qin actually had such a thing.

However, they did not want to pry into this. After all, this had nothing to do with them.

Qin Lin made tea and poured a cup for Professor Ren and the others before saying, "Professor Ren, have some tea first. I'll get the medicinal wine later and accompany you to verify the effect."

When Professor Ren heard this, he hurriedly said, "Boss Qin, there's no need to verify it. Xiao Li has already verified the medicinal wine with me. The effect is very strong. I'm really ashamed of the previous video."

Qin Lin smiled and said, "Professor Ren, I already said not to mention what happened before. Otherwise, I won't invite you here."

"Alright, I won't mention it," Professor Ren replied with a smile. Then, he asked in embarrassment, "Boss Qin, actually, I have a presumptuous request. Can I stay in the villa for a while to study your medicinal wine? I guess there's some kind of scientific denaturation element in your medicinal wine."

Professor Ren was clearly anxious.

This was because he had already experienced the Qinglin Medicine Wine himself. Even he, an expert in this field, was shocked by its effect, okay?

He drank 30ml of wine and strolled out of the Triangular Plum Blossom Sea. His hemorrhoids completely improved.

If he could study what the denaturation element in that medicinal wine was, he might be able to develop a special medicine that was very effective for hemorrhoids. It could also greatly promote other aspects of life health science.

"Professor Ren, that's not a problem. I'll get someone to arrange a place for you to stay." Qin Lin naturally did not refuse Professor Ren's request.

He hoped that Professor Ren could study the denaturation element from this medicinal wine. In that case, there would be a lot of things in the game. Would he be able to use it for similar research in the future?

Naturally, it would be best if Professor Ren could develop any more hemorrhoid medicine.

After all, hemorrhoids were torture to everyone.

Most importantly, the medicine developed by Professor Ren's department could really benefit everyone.

That was a scientific research department directly led by the country. It was either to earn money or to benefit the people.

One of the drugs his father used for cancer was the kind that Professor Ren had developed in this department. Then it went into health insurance and was 20 times cheaper than similar drugs.

Now, those similar medicines had no choice but to enter health insurance and reduce the price by 20 times.

If not for Professor Ren's medicine, his family might have owed even more. His father might not have lasted that long.

Many of the drugs that entered health insurance had dropped their prices drastically. Was it because those pharmaceutical companies had a conscience? That was because there was a country behind them. Professor Ren's department was constantly working hard.

It was precisely because he had received a favor that he decisively agreed to Professor Ren's request.

After all, a medicinal wine for hemorrhoids did not affect him much.

He did not need to earn money from this now.

Furthermore, even if Professor Qin really researched the medicine to treat hemorrhoids through this denaturation element, it might not be comparable to his medicinal wine.

In the eyes of many people, his method might be very stupid. Some people might even label him brainless. They might think that if he gave his things to others to study, others might take them to earn money.

But compared to such possibilities, he believed more in heroes like Professor Ren and the country.

He was not the kind of person who enjoyed the welfare of the country, enjoyed the favors of the country, lived in peaceful land guarded by the country, and cursed at the country and questioned it in all kinds of ways.

When Professor Ren saw that Qin Lin agreed so readily, he was stunned. "Boss Qin, you agreed just like that? If I use this to research a medicine to treat hemorrhoids, aren't you afraid that it will affect your wine?"

Qin Lin had long understood this question, so he naturally did not care. "Professor Ren, it's just wine. I really hope you can develop a medicine for hemorrhoids that can benefit everyone."

Chapter 246

When Professor Ren heard this, he looked at Qin Lin differently. He had not met such a young man in a long time.

He could naturally tell that Boss Qin really did not care and spoke very frankly.

Professor Ren also promised, "Boss Qin, don't worry. I can really develop that kind of denaturation element from your wine. I'll apply to the country to compensate you."

"There's compensation? That's acceptable," Qin Lin said half-jokingly.

"There will be." Professor Ren nodded again with certainty. Then, he asked anxiously, "Boss Qin, is it convenient for you to tell me what material this medicinal wine is made of?"

"It's made of bitter ginseng." Qin Lin did not hide it. Others would not be able to learn this bitter ginseng even if they knew.

"Bitter ginseng?" Professor Ren was stunned. "Although this bitter ginseng is effective for hemorrhoids, the effect doesn't seem to be that strong."

Qin Lin explained, "Maybe it's because I used very old bitter ginseng. Furthermore, the wine I used was also more than 20 years old."

Professor Ren guessed, "Then maybe there's a reaction."

Qin Lin naturally knew that it was because of the system, but he would not say it. He changed the topic. "Professor Ren, I'll arrange a place for you to stay first. I'll provide you with some wine when the time comes."

Professor Ren also wanted to start his research as soon as possible. He said, "Then I'll trouble Boss Qin. How much do you want? Give me an invoice. I can reimburse you."

Qin Lin did not dwell on this matter. He personally brought Professor Ren to arrange for him to stay in the bridal chamber. He even specially called Gao Yaoyao over and instructed her to clean up an empty office for Professor Ren to use for the next few days.

He also took out a bottle of medicinal wine that he had brought out earlier and handed it to Professor Ren.

After arranging everything, Qin Lin returned to the office.

Seeing that it was fine, he looked at the screen in his mind again. He first controlled the game character to catch the 35 fish that had refreshed today, then controlled the game character to head to Mount Notre Dame.

However, the trees had also been refreshed. When they were cut down one by one, they were still ordinary wood. It was not until the last tree that they gained something.

[A sandalwood tree can be cut. Do you want to cut it?]

It was actually another sandalwood. After cutting it, he finally harvested 30% of the Quality 1 sandalwood.

In other words, these three sets of Quality 1 sandalwood could make 300 boxes of 100g sandalwood incense again.

As he was thinking, Zhao Moqing entered the office. "Have you made arrangements for Professor Ren?"

Qin Lin replied, "Yes, make arrangements with Master Lin to arrange for Professor Ren to eat in the original hall."

"I'll arrange it later," Zhao Moqing said as she handed her phone to him. "Qin Lin, look at the villa's official account's message. The medicinal wine for treating hemorrhoids and the sandalwood incense for sleeping have been used. Now, many fans are asking if we sell them."

Qin Lin took his phone and saw that there were indeed rows of messages from fans. They were undoubtedly asking about the medicinal wine for hemorrhoids and the sandalwood incense for sleep.

It could be seen how much this hemorrhoid and insomnia affected the general public.

However, the medicinal wine to treat hemorrhoids was really limited. There were very few mountain goods refreshed, and the probability of them refreshing to bitter ginseng was even lower. He had no choice.

On the other hand, he had obtained sandalwood again. There was always a refresh rate. He could make an issue of it.

Qin Lin thought for a moment and said, "We don't have much medicinal wine to treat hemorrhoids, but we can use the sandalwood incense. We can upgrade our bridal chamber. The price of the bridal chamber will increase by 450 yuan a night. It will be accompanied by special sandalwood incense for sleeping and three grams of special sandalwood incense a night."

It meant that the price of the bridal chamber would increase by 100 yuan. In the future, there would be 0.5 grams of sandalwood incense for every bridal chamber. He would even give three grams when the guests left.

One room was 3.5 grams. 150 rooms were only 525 grams a night. It was only 15,750 grams a month, which was 157 boxes of 100 grams.

He had 300 boxes of Quality 1 sandalwood incense each. He could supply it.

The insomnia rate in China was as high as the hemorrhoid rate. The insomnia rate was close to 40%. In other words, more than 1,200 of the more than 3,000 tourists received every day.

Therefore, he was not worried that no one would stay in the bridal chamber. Those who could not sleep would fight to stay. It was just 100 yuan more. Those who were out for a vacation would not care.

This would instead raise the level of their bridal chamber to a higher level. It might even become a special feature. When the time came, the outside world would spread the 'help sleeping bridal chamber' project unique to Qinglin Villa.

This could also increase the level of the special sandalwood incense stall produced by his game by more than one level. It was equivalent to 3.5 grams for 100 yuan, which meant 14,285 yuan per catty.

This price was 10 times more expensive than top-notch sandalwood in the outside world. It was more expensive than many Chinese rosewoods.

If it was just sandalwood that was worth this price? Naturally, it was not worth it. However, who asked him, who had a Quality 1, to have a +1 sleep attribute? Who asked for the insomnia rate to be so high? His targeted operation meant that this Quality 1 sandalwood incense had this value.

"Then can the sandalwood fragrance be guaranteed?" Zhao Moqing was most worried about this.

Qin Lin said, "3.5 grams a day in each bridal room can still be guaranteed."

"Then there's no problem. This can actually create a special feature." Zhao Moqing was relieved to hear Qin Lin's words. "I'll take a video and announce it on the official account later."

Zhao Moqing and Qin Lin discussed the details before leaving Qin Lin's office.

Qin Lin also looked at the game in his mind again. He controlled the game character to return to the ranch and sell all the wood he had harvested today except for the Quality 1 sandalwood incense.

Just as he finished selling all the wood, a notification that surprised him suddenly appeared in his mind:

[Game character upgraded!]

[The ranch meets the opening requirements!]

Chapter 247

Qin Lin received the notification of his character leveling up and immediately looked at the upgrade information.

This time it was upgraded when he was selling wood.

In other words, the character upgrade not only increased experience by planting and picking crops, but also by fishing, harvesting mountain goods, and cutting trees.

He looked at the upgrade information. With this upgrade, there were more things open.

First, he opened up 12 Level 1 plots of land. He could also upgrade six Level 2 plots of land, one Level 3 plot of land, and one Water Field.

However, Qin Lin's attention was not on these lands now, but on the information [The ranch is open].

In Ranches Story, the ranches section was naturally indispensable. There were even many magical animal husbandry types and many competitions about animals. One could obtain strange rewards in these competitions.

Racing was one of them.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to head to the ranch area. In the old version of the game, the ranch itself had ranch buildings, such as chicken coops, horse coops, and cow coops.

As long as he had enough gold coins, he could spend money to buy chickens and cows.

The new version of the game was a little different from those old versions. The game character level was not high enough, and the ranch area had been in a state of waiting to be unlocked.

[Do you want to spend gold coins to unlock the open ranch area?]

Look, the new version was not enough. Even the opening of the ranch required gold coins.

He could only say that the game planner was a real dog.

Fortunately, he had been cutting trees and mining to sell. Coupled with some crops planted in the land, he still had enough game gold coins.

A moment later, the ranch area was unlocked and the game character successfully entered the ranch area. However, the ranch area was empty.

[The current ranch is Level 1. It can be built into a chicken coop and a duck coop!]

Qin Lin received another message.

In other words, this ranch facility had to be upgraded one level at a time like those lands. New buildings had to be opened, and only the corresponding buildings could be used to raise the corresponding livestock.

The new version looked like it had copied another familiar web game.

Currently, Level 1 ranches could only build chicken and duck houses.

Qin Lin thought about the current situation of his villa and directly clicked on the duck house to build it.

Actually, the nutritional value of duck and chicken was similar. They were both very nutritious and common meat products.

Furthermore, the ducks and chickens produced by the game should be the same as the crops. The most basic was Quality 1. Be it the meat or the eggs, they would definitely be better than the ones in the outside world.

However, because he wanted to join the racetrack, Sun Ming had already gotten the people from Youcheng First Construction Company to redesign the design. Before the new blueprint was released, there was no place to raise chickens. He could not let them run around.

However, it was different for ducks. This was because the villa still had a portion of the use of the reservoir. The reservoir was a natural breeding ground for ducks.

He would build some duckhouses in the reservoir beside the villa and raise the ducks in the game. At that time, this duck would be a new breed of duck that could only be eaten in Qinglin Villa.

The key was that if this was done well, he could obtain the Quality 1 meat provided by the mountain villa without entering the game.

On the other hand, there were more ducks and duck feces. He had to raise fish under the duck house.

Duck dung was the most nutritious of all the conventional livestock and poultry feces.

Because the duck's intestines were too short, the food did not stay in the intestines for long. The feed could only absorb a portion of it, and most of it had become a treasure to be pulled out. Therefore, many farms would use duck feces a second time.

Naturally, duck dung had to be specially fermented to be used to raise fish. This required a high salary to hire a few professionals.

Therefore, it was completely feasible to raise ducks and fish.

Now, there were hundreds of wild black carps, grass carps, and bass in the ranch pool. They could be taken out and placed in.

When the time comes, this duck house might become Chen Shengfei's favorite place.

In the game.

After the duck house was built, it was still empty. The ducklings needed to be bought.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to leave the ranch in a hurry. In the game, he had to go to other ranches to buy livestock.

The game character arrived at another ranch in the town and met the NPC rancher, triggering the conversation:

[Are you the owner of that new ranch? Your ranch has a lot of things to do. I have a lot of livestock to sell. I hope you can develop the livestock industry in Ore Town with me!]

After the conversation, the names of a large row of livestock appeared in front of him, but only duck and chicken could be bought.

There were also pigeons, peacocks, swans, pigs, cows, horses, deer, sheep, and so on… However, like the farm seeds, these were all gray and could not be bought if he was not high enough in level.

Qin Lin directly clicked on the purchase button. There was no limit to the number of ducks. Anyway, he had enough game coins to buy 50 ducks.

After the purchase, the rancher's conversation reappeared:

[Haha, you bought 50 ducklings. They'll liven up your ranch. Go back to the ranch and wait. I'll send the ducklings over soon.]

Qin Lin clicked to end the conversation and controlled his game character to return to the ranch immediately. He realized that the rancher was already waiting at the entrance.

[The ducklings are already in the duckhouse. We've given you some feed. The ducklings are very cute. Take good care of them. Their meat and eggs will be delicious when they grow up!]

Chapter 248

When Qin Lin saw this conversation, he directly cursed the game planner. How could the words duckling, cute, and delicious be placed together?

The rancher quickly left after fulfilling his NPC conversation duty without a trace of reluctance.

Qin Lin also controlled his game character to enter the duckhouse.

There were indeed more than 50 yellow ducklings inside. They were very cute ducklings that would be delicious when they grew up.

He controlled the game character to put the feed given by the rancher into the feed slot. The group of ducklings ran up to eat it, eager to grow up.

When Qin Lin saw this, he retracted his attention from the game and called Chen Dabei, asking him to wait for him in the original hall with the carpenter horse master (Chapter 153).

Since he had a plan to build a duck house in reality, he naturally had to act immediately.

After hanging up, he went to Zhao Moqing's office.

The office was still lit with agarwood incense. Lin Fen was in the office.

Wang Cai was lying comfortably to its side, its eyes narrowed as if it enjoyed the smell of agarwood incense.

When Qin Lin entered the office, Lin Fen and Zhao Moqing were chatting happily.

"Woof!" When Wang Cai saw that Qin Lin had come in and did not close the office door, it whimpered at Qin Lin and ran over to close the office door with its head. Then, it ran back and lay down again.

The last time this dog was brought into the game to learn the Frisbee skill, it became even smarter after its intelligence increased. Did it know that when the door opened, the smell of the agarwood incense would spread?

"Mom, what are you talking about?" Qin Lin walked to Zhao Moqing's desk and asked curiously.

Lin Fen explained, "I was talking to Moqing about the old residence in the village. Every old residence in the village has been renovated. Only our house and your Uncle Shuigen's house have not been renovated."

"Because of our family's situation, your Uncle Shuigen never mentioned it. Now that you're earning money, your Uncle Shuigen told me to hire someone to renovate the old residence for more than ten days while there's still some time during the new year. I'm discussing this with Moqing."

Qin Lin nodded and said, "Mom, this is a good thing. Why didn't you tell me?"

In the past, many old houses in the countryside had two or even a few families living together, sharing the hall and courtyard.

Their family and Uncle Shuigen's old house were the same house. The two kitchens were only two meters apart.

If such an old house was to be renovated, it would usually be renovated by a few families in the old house. Previously, Uncle Shuigen had never mentioned their family's situation.

To many people who came from the countryside, the old house would always be a home. No matter where they made a living or how well they lived now, the memories of the old house when they were young were the most unforgettable.

Furthermore, the older generation believed that as long as the house in their hometown was still there, no matter how painful it was to fall outside or how miserable they were, there would still be a way out and a pillar of support.

If they didn't even have their old house, they would really be rootless and have no soul to rely on.

That was indeed the case. Even if the old residence did not have the traffic and tall buildings of a big city, there would always be a moment in life when they recalled that distant mountain village. They wanted to smell the fragrance of the wild flowers and drink the sugarcane mountain spring.

This was probably their pillar of support.

When Lin Fen heard her son's words, she said matter-of-factly, "You don't have to worry about this family. Moqing is in charge of the money. She can make the decision. I'll inform you after discussing it with Moqing."

Qin Lin smiled and said, "Alright, you and Moqing will decide on this matter. How much does this renovation cost?"

However, Lin Fen reminded him, "It doesn't cost much. Please let your Uncle Shuigen do the math. When the time comes, our old residence will be renovated to be about the same as your Uncle Shuigen's house. Although you've made some money, don't stand out in this."

"I understand." Qin Lin understood what his mother meant. Now that many people had earned some money, they liked to compare themselves with each other in the renovation of the old residence. Many people in the same house had a good relationship, but some insisted on suppressing the other party. When they were renovating, they had to compete. As they compared, the resentment in their hearts came out and their relationship worsened.

With his current income, he could renovate the old house better than anyone in the village.

However, there was no need. If he did too well, Qin Ren's family would be too inferior. Even if they did not have that intention, it would look bad to outsiders.

Back then, with their family's situation, Qin Ren's family did not choose to renovate first. Wasn't he afraid that others would compare and make their family look bad?

Therefore, everyone paid the same amount of money to repair the old residence. They did not compete with each other and kept the old residence together.

Qin Lin did not forget his business and said to Zhao Moqing, "By the way, recruit a few people who know how to raise ducks and ferment duck feces."

Zhao Moqing asked, "Do you want to raise ducks?"

Qin Lin explained, "Doesn't the villa still have the right to use the reservoir? We have to use it. We can also raise fish while raising ducks."

"Yes, I'll call the agent later and ask him to recommend a few people for an interview." Zhao Moqing nodded. The villa had developed to this point, and there was also Qinglin Food Company. It was also a big employer. After the county's corporate guidance fund was established, just the food company factory alone would need to hire nearly 600 people.

As long as the villa had a hiring requirement, the intermediary company would serve as soon as possible.

After Qin Lin finished instructing, he left the office to look for Chen Dabei and the others.

Chen Dabei was already waiting in the original hall with Master Ma.

"Supervisor Chen, why did Boss call us?" Master Ma asked from behind Chen Dabei.

Chapter 249

Chen Dabei said, "Old Ma, stop asking because I don't know either. If there's anything the Boss asks you to do, just do it well. Don't be lazy when the time comes."

"How can that be? Supervisor Chen, you know that I'm the most diligent," Master Ma immediately said. For a scattered carpenter like him, he was very satisfied with the job at Qinglin Villa. Firstly, the salary was not low and was stable. Secondly, the food was good.

"Boss!" Chen Dabei quickly saw Qin Lin and went forward with Master Ma.

"Let's go to the reservoir to take a look." Qin Lin also called the two of them to the reservoir.

It was not far from the nearest reservoir in the villa. They arrived in a short while. This was a mountain, a slow-moving water area, and it met the farming conditions.

Qin Lin looked around the reservoir and asked Master Ma, "Master Ma, can you build a duck house here?"

Master Ma looked around and nodded. "Boss, there's no problem with that, but if the duck house you're building is big, I definitely can't handle it alone."

"Master Ma, you don't have to worry about that. I'll get the security guards to help you," Chen Dabei said immediately. He had followed his boss for so long and knew why his boss had called him over.

Qin Lin also smiled and nodded. "Master Ma, the duck house I want to build is not small, and there's more than one. Chen Dabei will cooperate with you. Tell me what materials you want. I'll get someone to buy them immediately."

"Boss, that requires a lot of things." Master Ma also told Qin Lin what he needed.

The most important material for building the duck house in the reservoir was naturally the bamboo and the barbed wire in the cut area. In addition, it was what was needed to build the floating bridge.

These things were not difficult to get. After Chen Dabei went out for a run, everything was transported to the reservoir in the afternoon.

Chen Dabei also led a team of security guards to help Master Ma build a big pile in the reservoir.

These large stakes had to slowly expand into the water from the shore. They were used to fix the floating bridge.

When the time came, he would use empty oil barrels and some special floating tools as the base. With wooden planks fixed on it, it would be a floating bridge that could be walked.

Master Ma was already drilling holes in the bamboo with his tools. He had to get a few bamboo rafts first.

Bamboo rafts were also good things. It was very comfortable to row bamboo rafts on the reservoir in summer and bask in the sun.

With this in mind, it was not a bad idea to prepare two green boats.

However, this bamboo raft was now made to cooperate with the pulling of the isolation barbed wire.

This isolation barbed wire was only to stop the ducks. If he wanted to raise fish later, he had to set up another blockade in the water to prevent the fish from escaping.

After a busy afternoon, the first dual-use duck house had a preliminary model by the reservoir.

This was faster than he had imagined.

Seeing that it was dark, Qin Lin asked everyone to go back and continue tomorrow. He also returned to the office. When he passed by an office, he heard Professor Ren's voice. "No, there's nothing wrong with the test paper we brought. Why can't we detect the special ingredient in this medicinal wine?"

Qin Lin looked into the half-closed office. Professor Ren and the others had already merged the two tables together and were testing something with some unknown paper.

He did not expect Professor Ren to start working so soon. His attitude and enthusiasm for scientific research were really high.

Professor Liu's voice sounded. "Old Ren, try the third rule alkaline paper test."

"Yes, I didn't expect the degeneration element in this medicinal wine to be so difficult to detect." Professor Ren frowned and said, "If it doesn't work, Old Liu, help me send a testing machine over after you return to the research institute tomorrow."

Qin Lin did not disturb Professor Ren and the others. He walked straight to his office and looked at the game in his mind the moment he entered. He controlled his game character to head to the ranch.

Because of the time ratio in the game, one day in reality was half a year inside. When the game character entered the duckhouse, he saw that the cute ducklings, who were still covered in yellow fur in the morning, were already half-grown ducks with white fur. They were valiant and loud.

Seeing the game character enter, the delicious ducks surrounded him. They were clearly hungry.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to put in the feed and left the ranch again. There were 50 ducks. The feed given by the rancher had already been fed twice. He wanted to buy some more.

In addition, the duck house was built faster than he had imagined. As long as the breeder was recruited, he should be able to send the first batch of ducks over tomorrow.

Therefore, he planned to buy 50 more ducklings and gather 100 delicious ducks tomorrow.

Chapter 250

After Qin Lin bought another 50 ducklings and entered the duck house, he looked at the land.

In addition to the opening of the ranch, this upgrade also opened 12 plots of Level 1 land. It could be upgraded to another six plots of Level 2 and one plot of Level 3 land, as well as a paddy field.

The batch of crops in the evening was about to ripen. It was just enough to develop these lands and upgrade them. This way, when the original land was harvested, he could plant them together. Otherwise, it would be too troublesome.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to clean up all the weeds, wooden stakes, and stones in the 12 new plots of land and used a hoe to develop them one by one.

After developing these 12 plots of land, he upgraded six of them to Level 2 land and one of them to Level 3 land.

Finally, he modified a water field and upgraded it to Level 2.

He had no intention of taking out the crops planted in Level 1 and Level 2 lands this time. He decided to sell them in the game.

The villa no longer needed to earn money by increasing the number of Quality 1 crops in Level 1 and 2 lands.

Quality 2 crops appeared in these lands.

However, there were three plots of Level 3 land, two plots of Level 2 water fields, and more plots of Level 2 water fields and Level 3 land to be used.

With two plots of Level 2 paddy field, the matching cultivation of eel and loach could be carried out together.

Although the price of Quality 1 eel and Quality 1 loach had reached 200 yuan a catty, they were very popular. As soon as there was a supply, they were immediately sold out.

After all, these two things were the best in the South.

However, the eels and loaches had been cultivated for a longer time. It turned out that there was only a Level 2 paddy field. After raising the eels, there were no loaches, and after raising the loaches, there were no eels.

Furthermore, a mature batch only weighed 50 catties.

The meat produced by such games had to be increased.

Now that there was an additional Level 2 paddy field that could be cultivated at the same time, it was equivalent to more than 50 catties of eel and more than 50 catties of loach that could be supplied at the villa.

The other was Level 3 land.

The reason why all the watermelons in the previous two plots of land were planted was because the seedless watermelon seeds were of Quality 2. The watermelons planted were all of Quality 2.

However, if the crops planted by ordinary seeds were all Quality 1, there was only a probability of some being Quality 2.

If it was calculated according to its value, this Level 3 land would also be planted with a seedless watermelon of Quality 2. Its value would be the highest.

However, in the previous two boxes of Quality 2 watermelons, he could already harvest 40 to 50 Quality 2 seedless watermelons a day.

Furthermore, a Quality 2 watermelon weighed more than 20 catties and basically cost more than 2,000 yuan. Although it was already famous and everyone knew that this watermelon was delicious, among the more than 3,000 tourists, the number of people who could buy an entire Quality 2 watermelon was about the same. It was even the tourists who lived in the bridal chamber who bought it and cut it on the spot in the small courtyard.

Therefore, he planned to plant other things in this Level 3 area. The diversification of high-end fruits was also important. He could not rely on just one watermelon and the Quality 2 strawberries that appeared every day in Level 2 land.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to go to the Ore Town's seed shop and checked. There were many seeds that could be planted in the Level 3 land: Multi-core four-edged beans, yellow yamakurage, green-skinned kiwis, milk strawberries, blue purple plums, and so on…

Ordinary seeds produced Quality 1 fruits, so he had to check the best price among these things.

Qin Lin retracted his gaze and went online to check the prices of these crops.

Multi-core four-edged beans: Average price today is 65 yuan per catty.

Yellow Yamakurage: Average price today is 58 yuan per catty.

Green-skinned kiwi: Average price today is 60 yuan per catty.

Blue Purple Plum Blossom: Average price today is 100 yuan per catty.

…

Clearly, the prices of these planted crops in Level 3 lands were much higher than those in Level 1 and 2 lands.

Most crops in Level 1 lands cost 5 to 6 yuan a catty, and ordinary red strawberries in Level 2 lands only cost 25 yuan a catty. The crops in Level 3 lands basically cost more than 55 yuan. This was already a semi-extravagant crop.

Of course, these were the prices of ordinary items outside. If there were game attributes, it would naturally be different.

The okra that could be planted in Level 1 land was only 5 yuan a catty outside. His sales center for Quality 1 sold for 15 yuan, and the Quality 2 sold for 200 yuan a catty (Chapter 33).

Ordinary red strawberries that could be planted in Level 2 land were only 25 yuan a catty outside. His sales center for Quality 1 sold for 40 yuan and 200 yuan for Quality 2.

Therefore, since the crops planted in this Level 3 land had game attributes, he would naturally sell them at a higher price.

The most expensive crop that could be planted in these Level 3 lands was the 100 yuan a catty of Blue Purple Plum.

This was only the normal price in reality.

After he planted it from the game, he would sell it for 150 yuan for the Quality 1 and 300 yuan for the Quality 2, right?

[Blue Purple Plum Seed: Ordinary]

[This is a plum seedling. The blue purple plum it produces is very delicious. It takes two days to grow and is harvested five times a day.]

This blue purple plum is a seedling. It's different from the seeds of watermelons, and the way it's harvested is also different.

The Blue Purple Plum Seed needs two days to grow. After that, it can be harvested repeatedly. It can be harvested a total of five times.

Qin Lin decisively bought some Blue Purple Plum seedlings and returned to the ranch. He planted the seedlings on the new Level 3 land.

At this moment, the crops in the original fields had also ripened.

Qin Lin picked the batch of crops in the evening and sent them to the storage room to be transported tomorrow morning. Then, he planted new seeds.

Chapter 251

After doing this, Qin Lin got up and left, planning to find Zhao Moqing to eat in the canteen.

Zhao Moqing was not in the office. He found her in the multimedia room editing and planning to film the announcement of the bridal chamber service upgrade with Gao Yaoyao.

When Qin Lin entered, the video had already been taken and edited. "Yaoyao is becoming more and more photogenic."

Gao Yaoyao's capital was not bad. She was pure, beautiful, and had a cheerful personality. In the beginning, she might have been a little unnatural, but now, she was already very natural in front of the camera.

The key was that after becoming a supervisor and managing those waitresses, she had more confidence than before. This confidence was very attractive to the opposite sex.

For example, Zhao Moqing was now in charge of everything in the entire villa. Her confidence was even stronger, as if she had bred a temperament that was quite charming.

Zhao Moqing clearly agreed with Qin Lin. "Yes, Yaoyao is getting more and more beautiful. Many male fans in the villa are infatuated with Yaoyao. They say they want to kill you, the owner of the villa, and snatch Yaoyao."

"Then I'll have to be careful when I go out in the future," Qin Lin teased. Gao Yaoyao's "Qinglin Villa Service Manager, Yaoyao" account had indeed attracted many perverts.

Gao Yaoyao blushed and said shyly, "Boss, Sister Moqing, it's not as exaggerated as you say."

After watching the video, Qin Lin also said, "The video is done. Let's go to the canteen to eat together!"

Zhao Moqing got the editing team to send the video to her. Then, she said to the editing and planning girl, "Let's go eat!"

"Long live Sister Moqing, long live Boss." The planner was clearly hungry. She cheered happily and went out with Gao Yaoyao.

Zhao Moqing uploaded the video to a certain official number in the villa and hugged Qin Lin's arm as they headed to the canteen.

Zhao Moqing uploaded the video of the bridal chamber service upgrade online and it soon became a hot topic.

The benefits of Qinglin Villa's listing event, be it the medicinal wine for treating hemorrhoids or the sandalwood incense for sleeping, had long proven to be very effective.

People suffering from hemorrhoids and insomnia were paying attention now.

Many people commented on the official account of Qinglin Villa and asked if these two things were sold.

Now that Zhao Moqing's video had attracted attention as soon as it was released, it would be strange if it was not trending.

This was the advantage of having popularity.

When the person opened the video, Gao Yaoyao's sweet voice sounded.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Gao Yaoyao from Qinglin Villa. Everyone is paying attention to the medicinal wine for hemorrhoids and the special sandalwood incense for sleeping in our villa. Many people even left messages wanting to buy it."

"Unfortunately, this medicinal wine is very rare. Our villa can't supply it for sale. The sandalwood incense for sleep is also specially made. It's equally rare and can't be supplied for sale."

"Of course, there's also good news for everyone. Our villa's bridal chamber has been upgraded to a 'sleep-aiding bridal chamber' service."

"From tomorrow onwards, after the tourists check out at 12 noon, the price of the room will be changed to 450 yuan a night. We'll give you a sandalwood incense sleeping service + three grams of incense gift bag."

As soon as this video was released, many people saw it, especially those who had serious hemorrhoids.

They had originally wanted to go to Qinglin Villa when they saw the benefits of giving out medicinal wine to treat hemorrhoids, but they hesitated because of Professor Ren's video. Now, they had completely missed it.

Thinking of their stinging hemorrhoids and the powerful effect of the medicinal wine described online, they realized that missing out on it would really make them extremely regretful.

As Qin Lin had expected, no one cared about the 100 yuan increase in the bridal room service. Instead, it aroused the enthusiasm of the insomniac.

"I just experienced the effect of Qinglin Villa's sandalwood incense. Now, even five-star hotels are incomparable to the bridal chamber of Qinglin Villa."

"Three grams can be used for six nights and one night in the bedroom. That's equivalent to 100 dollars for seven nights of comfortable sleep. It's a blessing for people with severe insomnia."

"Qinglin Villa only raised the price by 100 yuan. Do you think I don't have money? Raise it by 200 yuan and let me have fewer competitors to book a room."

"…"

In a luxurious hotel, Wan Gu lay in a big bathtub, smoking and watching videos on his phone.

After he left Qinglin Villa, he came to this province to play with Wang Yang.

This was the hotel Wang Yang had arranged for him.

This trip to Qinglin Villa was definitely a huge gain for him.

The effect of the sandalwood incense was too strong.

After writing the novel, he did not earn much money, but his insomnia became worse. His biological clock was completely out of tune, and the pain of insomnia became deeper and deeper.

This time, the benefits he had received at Qinglin Villa and the ones he had bought from the other tourists could let him sleep comfortably for a while. They should save his broken biological clock and cure his insomnia.

"Eh, Qinglin Villa posted a video again?" Wan Gu quickly saw the video of Qinglin Villa's bridal chamber service upgrading.

That made his eyes light up.

Qinglin Villa's bridal chamber actually had such a sleeping service. As a severe insomnia, he planned to book a bridal chamber at noon tomorrow and go back to Qinglin Villa to stay for a few more nights to enjoy more of the special sandalwood incense powder.

As he was thinking, he received a message from Wang Yang on WeChat. "Wan Gu, enjoy tonight."

"Enjoy what?" Wan Gu was stunned for a moment. Then, he heard the door open outside. This shocked him. He immediately picked up the towel and wrapped it around himself. He opened the door and looked out.

Chapter 252

Two young ladies in revealing clothes walked into the room with the room card.

"?" Wan Gu was stunned.

What was going on?

They had never met before.

…

The night passed in the blink of an eye.

Qin Lin woke up early in the morning and looked at the screen in his mind. After picking all the ripe crops, he controlled his game character to go to the ranch and duck house to see the situation of the delicious ducks.

As they entered the duck house, caws sounded.

After this night, according to the game's time ratio, the second batch of 50 ducks had already grown halfway.

The first batch of 50 ducks had already grown up. They were already very big and their feathers were white.

Furthermore, round duck eggs could be seen lying on the ground around the duck house.

They were clearly still cute ducklings yesterday, but they had grown up so quickly and even knew how to lay eggs.

Logically speaking, this was unbelievable. After all, he had only fed the duck twice, but according to the time ratio, the duck had grown for half a year.

If he fed them twice a year in reality, they would have died long ago.

However, farming time in this game was so fast. The mechanism of the game planned was like this.

There was only one explanation. When he didn't enter the game world, it was a 2D cartoon game. Everything was affected by the game mechanism.

Only when he entered the game world would it be the real world.

Otherwise, it was impossible for a 100-year-old tree to respawn in the real world. That was all due to the game mechanism.

Qin Lin did not dwell on this. He began to control the game character to pick up the duck eggs and send them to the storage room.

If he wanted to sell it directly, he could directly control the game character and put it in a special delivery box.

After Qin Lin finished checking the duck eggs in the duck house, he came back to his senses. Zhao Moqing had already gotten up and sat at the dressing table to start putting on her makeup.

The two of them washed up and left the bedroom. Lin Fen had already made porridge. Zhao Moqing could make breakfast, but Lin Fen preferred to wake up early and rush to make it before Zhao Moqing did. She did not let Zhao Moqing make it and even forced Zhao Moqing to sleep more every morning.

"Mom!" Zhao Moqing sat down happily. She could eat the breakfast her mother-in-law made every day. Which woman wouldn't be happy?

Lin Fen got a bowl of porridge for Qin Lin. "The Xiangshui Tribute Rice at home is running out. If you can get more, get some for Moqing's mother too. I saw that Chen Xiao liked to eat the Xiangshui Tribute Rice."

If those rich people heard this, they would definitely open their mouths in shock. After all, most of them could not buy Xiangshui Tribute Rice, but Lin Fen made light of it.

However, how could she not downplay what she ate at home every day?

"I understand, Mom." Qin Lin also made a note of this. Although the Quality 1 Xiangshui Tribute Rice was sold every day, the Quality 2 Xiangshui Tribute Rice was left behind. There was already a lot in the game.

After eating the porridge, Qin Lin went out to the warehouse and entered the game. He moved all the things that were to be transported to the villa today out of the game and placed them in the car before heading to the location where the duck eggs were stored.

Although he had guessed that this duck egg and duck should be of Quality 1, he had to confirm it.

When he saw those duck eggs, Qin Lin subconsciously picked one up. The duck egg was no longer in the shape of a cartoon but a real duck egg with a clear touch. However, ordinary duck eggs were only 5.5cm tall and 3.5cm in diameter. The one in his hand was twice as big.

Furthermore, among those duck eggs, he saw three clearly larger duck eggs.

Even if it was as big as an ostrich egg.

Wasn't it unbelievable that a duck egg could be that big?

Chapter 253

This was the first time Qin Lin had seen such a big duck egg.

Especially when he saw the three duck eggs that were not much worse than ostrich eggs, he inexplicably wanted to know how the duck was born.

This was probably going to crack.

Qin Lin focused and saw the note on the duck egg in his hand.

[Duck egg: Quality 1]

[This is a duck egg born from a special big white duck: Yin-nourishing lungs +1, Yin-nourishing blood +1, beautiful skin +1, volume +1.]

Qin Lin put down the one in his hand and picked up one of the three especially big ones.

[Duck egg: Quality 2]

[This is a duck egg born from a special big white duck: Yin-nourishing lungs +2, Yin-nourishing blood +2, beautiful skin +2, volume +2.]

When he saw the note on the duck egg, he finally knew why it was so big. It had the attribute of increasing its size.

A Quality 3 watermelon weighed more than 200 catties because of its attributes.

Now that this duck egg had the attribute of increasing its size, it was not strange for it to be bigger.

Qin Lin was surprised by the other three attributes of this duck egg. He felt that he had to prepare one for Zhao Moqing every day.

This egg was simply a holy item for women.

There was no need to talk about nourishing the skin and clearing the lungs. Nourishing the skin was very beneficial to women. If women were normal in that aspect, men would be more sexually happy, right?

Furthermore, this beauty attribute was definitely something that women would crazily pursue. If this beauty attribute was used for a long time, even a 40-year-old girl would look like she was in her 20s, right?

He had to let Zhao Moqing eat it every day. With the effect of Xiangshui Tribute Rice, when Zhao Moqing was 40 or 50 years old, she would still be in her 20s. Wouldn't he be so proud to bring her out?

At that time, people would think he was taking his granddaughter out, right?

No, it shouldn't be at this pace. This beauty treatment was also effective on men, right? He could eat it every day too.

The correct rhythm should be decades later, when he and Zhao Moqing still looked young, they would call Qin Ren, Zhao Moyun, and the others to make them doubt their lives.

Qin Lin smiled for some reason.

He had even thought of a very stylish name for this duck egg: Beauty Egg.

Then, he left the storage room and rushed to the duck house on the ranch.

It was naturally impossible for a normal duck to give birth to such a big egg.

Then this duck must have mutated too.

Otherwise, such a big egg would be too careless about the duck's feelings.

As soon as he entered the duck house, the quacking of ducks sounded in his ears.

Unlike the crisp sound in the game, in this real situation, the duck cries were noisy.

Flutter!

A big white duck spread its wings and flew past him. Its snow-white wings were elegant and beautiful.

"?" Qin Lin was puzzled for a moment. Was this really a duck?

Indeed, the duck was too big to look like a duck. It was bigger than a swan and more like a swan than a swan.

Furthermore, he saw three ducks of this size.

Now he understood what had happened to the three duck eggs that were almost ostrich eggs. They must have been born.

Other than these three ducks, the other ducks were also larger than ordinary ducks, especially the first batch of 50 ducks that had already grown.

Ordinary ducks weighed about three to eight catties, and large ducks only weighed about 10 catties. However, the first batch of 50 ducks probably weighed more than 10 to 20 catties. They were as big as ordinary swans.

The key was that not only was this duck big, but it was also pure white and looked very good.

Qin Lin looked at the quacking ducks and grabbed one of them. He saw the attributes:

[Big white duck: Quality 1]

[This is a specially cultivated big white duck. Its quality is better than ordinary ducks: Taste +1, nourishing the stomach +1, cough-stopping +1, nutrition +1, weight +1, appearance +1, feces smell -1.]

As expected, this duck also had the attribute of weight +1, so it grew bigger than ordinary ducks and laid bigger eggs.

Furthermore, the eggs it laid had Yin-nourishing lungs, but its own meat was nourishing the stomach. The effect was actually different.

The key was that the attributes of these ducks seemed to be inferior to the eggs they laid. After all, with the additional attributes of nourishing the yin, nourishing the blood, and beautifying the face, the popularity and value would be completely different.

Of course, this did not mean that duck eggs were more valuable than this duck. It was stupid to think that way. This was because ducks could lay more than one egg. Ducks also had the attribute of beauty +1.

Qin Lin put down the duck and walked over to grab one of the three big ducks.

The big white duck was spreading its snow-white wings and displaying its beautiful figure like a swan. It clucked arrogantly. Suddenly, a pair of big hands grabbed its spread wings and lifted it up.

The big white duck immediately struggled.

Qin Lin felt the power of this big white duck. Even a big lion-headed goose couldn't compare to it, right?

If it were an ordinary weak person, they probably wouldn't be able to grab it.

Fortunately, he had eaten a fruit of the Tree of Strength. The big white duck was helpless in his hands and could not struggle at all.

The big white duck struggled for a while but had no strength. It could only quack randomly.

Qin Lin also felt the weight of the big white duck in his hand. It was probably more than 40 catties.

This kind of duck had really lived for a long time.

At least he had never seen one in his life. If he put it in the water and said it was a swan, from a distance, no fool would say it wasn't.

Chapter 254

He did not know if he could bring such a big duck to reality. He had to research ducks first and see if there was such a big duck in the real world.

Then, Qin Lin saw the duck's note:

[Big white duck: Quality 2]

[This is a specially cultivated big white duck. Its quality is better than ordinary ducks. It's a duck that's even more swan-like than a swan: Taste +2, Yin-nourishing +2, cough-stopping +2, nutrition +2, weight +2, appearance +2, feces smell -2.]

Looking at the duck's attributes, it was no wonder it was big.

Even the note said that this duck was more swan-like than a swan.

This taste +2 was very tempting. It made one eager to pluck the fur and taste it.

After reading the note, Qin Lin put down the big duck and exited the game. He got into the blue car and started it to transport the items to the villa.

When he arrived at the villa, he went to the office immediately and went online to search for information about ducks.

After all, those ducks were too big. Ordinary ducks were only a few catties.

However, after checking the relevant information online, he realized that he was too inexperienced.

There were many types of ducks all over the world. Normal ducks usually weighed three to five catties, medium ducks five to eight catties, and there were also large ducks. Most of them weighed about 10 to 20 catties.

These large ducks were very famous, such as the muscovy duck, musk duck, and mallard duck.

Many of these ducks had been raised to more than 20 catties.

Naturally, raising this weight was not something that could be achieved in three to five months with commercial breeding. It had to be raised with self-made nutritious essence grains for a year.

However, it was impossible for ducks raised by ordinary people to grow so big. Ordinary people had never seen them before.

Qin Lin had not seen such a big duck in more than 20 years.

In other words, there was no problem taking out a Quality 1 duck. After all, there were such big ducks in the outside world. It was just that a line of big white ducks that were so big was a little shocking.

Qin Lin continued to check the information to see how much the world's largest duck weighed. In the end, he obtained a shocking result. It was 38 catties outside.

Furthermore, this was a mallard duck, a special breed of duck in the country of Canada. The main use of this duck was not to eat it, but to enter competitions.

There was an activity in Canada similar to chicken sacrifice and milk sacrifice in Ranches Story. It could be called duck sacrifice, which judged the heaviest duck selected.

These 38 catties were the record, and it was also the world's largest duck record. Unfortunately, the night after that duck won, it was at a tycoon's table.

This duck festival was like those beauty shows that were prepared for some rich people. Those who won the beauty contest were rarely not kept by the rich, right?

This was the case for the duck sacrifice. On that day, many rich people would come to see the ducks. The winner would naturally be the fastest to be served at the rich people's table and the most expensive.

Furthermore, there was a person in China called the Duck King Wu who had also carefully raised a large duck. It was also 34 catties in size. Recently, he had to apply for the Guinness Book of Records.

Because no one had applied for the heaviest duck, the Guinness Book of Records.

After all, it was not the era where people applied for the Guinness Book of Records at the most. The people from Canada did not think of applying for this record for a duck that was destined to be eaten.

Therefore, this Duck King Wu seized the opportunity.

Seeing this, Qin Lin thought that it shouldn't be a problem to get three ducks that weighed more than 40 catties, right?

There were even 38 catties. He only needed a few more catties.

Qin Lin even thought maliciously that he should get these three ducks to apply for a Guinness record too. That would be another focus. When the time came, watching ducks would probably become a specialty of Qinglin Villa.

Qin Lin checked some more information about ducks before leaving for the reservoir.

Chen Dabei had long been busy building the duck shed with a team of security guards and Master Ma.

"Hurry up and cooperate with Master Ma to bury the wiring. Don't expose it." Chen Dabei shouted at the two security guards, burying the wiring.

This duck shed was built to receive electricity.

This was also the reason why Qin Lin liked to use Chen Dabei.

He didn't have to repeat what this person had instructed him to do or urge him to do it. He took the initiative and did it beautifully.

On the reservoir, a short section of the pontoon bridge with the fixed template of the floating bucket had also been made.

Seeing this, Qin Lin suddenly had a new idea.

If swans could be used to admire, why couldn't his ducks?

In the past, there was no program for viewing ducks in the country because ducks could not.

The duck produced by his game was completely white and had beautiful attributes. It looked even more arrogant than a swan.

Therefore, the beautiful appearance saved the ducks from the persecution of the poison attribute of taste +2.

Qin Lin was sure that such ducks would definitely be admired. He could definitely get a pontoon bridge to surround it so that tourists could walk on it to admire the ducks.

This section of the reservoir area was very gentle. Even if the reservoir let out water, it would not affect the pontoon bridge here much.

The pontoon itself was also a place that could be a tourist attraction and for a stroll.

Couples could hold hands as they walked on the pontoon. The feeling of their feet moving slightly with the water was very romantic.

There were also many floating bridges in the country. For example, the Enshi Floating Bridge was very famous. Cars could even drive on it.

Therefore, the pontoon bridge + duck-viewing was a very good attraction. Tourists could also rest and take photos on the pontoon bridge.

The key was that the pontoon bridge was also built quickly and could be used soon. When the time came to remove the barbed wire, the pontoon bridge could also serve as a natural barrier to prevent ducks from entering the depths of the reservoir.

He could also see if there were some floating plants in the water that could purify the environment from the game. Not only could he maintain the water quality, but he could also decorate the scenery.

Furthermore, many scenic areas had free viewing areas. This floating bridge could become a free viewing area for Qinglin Villa.

It was just that the safety of the pontoon bridge needed to be taken very seriously. After all, this was a reservoir.

As he thought about the pontoon bridge + duck-viewing, Qin Lin called Chen Dabei over.

"Boss, what's wrong?" Chen Dabei immediately ran to Qin Lin and asked.

Qin Lin instructed, "Do your best to build the duck house first. Don't build the pontoon bridge for the time being. I plan to find a special company to build it."

Since there was this plan, the pontoon could not be done casually. The appearance must be carefully done. The colors of the float and wood had to be uniform and harmonious.

Hearing his boss's instructions, Chen Dabei did not ask why. Without a word, he shouted at the security guards pushing the floater, "Let's not do it over there for now. Come and help Master Ma break open the bamboo and build a duck shed."

After instructing Chen Dabei, Qin Lin returned to his office and checked the company's information on Youcheng County's construction.

There must be a construction company that specializes in making pontoons.

Youcheng County carried out the plan of 'domain tourism+'. Many scenic spots had floating bridges built, and the corresponding market would give birth to companies with such services.

Qin Lin contacted a company that had made pontoons for the Hero Valley.

He had seen the pontoon bridge in the Hero Valley. It was also a pontoon bridge built on the reservoir section, and it was very good.

After that, he returned to the reservoir and supervised the duck house built by Master Ma and the others. He also gave his opinions and guidance and tried his best to achieve the effect he wanted.

After the morning, three more large duck houses were built and stood beside the reservoir, side by side with the one from yesterday.

As long as it was used as a decoration, this large duck house made of pure bamboo would be a little ornamental.

With these four large duck houses, he could get Master Ma and the others to isolate this area of the reservoir with barbed wire and bring the ducks out first.

He had to think about how to explain the source of this duck.

A good breed suddenly changed. This explanation was alright, right?

A livestock farm had three ducks that had mutated. The rancher used the eggs of these three big ducks to cultivate another batch of ducks. Unfortunately, the ducks had degenerated and become smaller.

This way, there was an explanation for both Quality 2 and Quality 1 ducks.

Naturally, in the end, he was the one who discovered these ducks and spent a lot of money to buy them.

As for how to make this reason reasonable, he would have to think about it carefully.

Chapter 255

Qin Lin left the reservoir and went to Zhao Moqing's office.

Before bringing the duck out of reality, he had to get Zhao Moqing to arrange the finances and buy enough feed.

Once the ducks were brought out, they would no longer be affected by the game mechanism. They had to be fed two to three meals a day. Furthermore, the ducks produced by the game had to be fed with the best feed. The more expensive the better. After all, they had to lay face-nourishing eggs. The better they were fed, the more eggs they would lay.

In addition, he had to buy the tools to clean the ducks and the supplementary materials to ferment the duck feces.

There would definitely be a lot of these in the future.

When he arrived at Zhao Moqing's office, Qin Lin realized that she was interviewing a young man.

Zhao Moqing handed the young man's resume to him. "Mr. Yang Dong is a chemical engineering major. He also worked as a fermentation technician for duck manure fertilizer in the provincial capital. He also knows how to ferment duck manure to feed fish."

Qin Lin took the resume and pulled a chair to sit down. He looked at Yang Dong and said, "Let me introduce myself first. I'm the boss of Qinglin Villa, Qin Lin."

When Yang Dong saw Zhao Moqing, the lady boss of the villa, he guessed that the boss of Qinglin Villa should be very young. After all, such a young lady boss couldn't marry an uncle, right?

However, he did not expect the boss to be so young. He was a few years younger than him.

Qin Lin looked at Yang Dong's resume. His major was very suitable for recruitment.

He also asked Yang Dong, "Mr. Yang Dong, why did you choose to work at our Qinglin Villa? Your salary in the provincial capital is definitely higher than ours. Besides, you're from Ning City. Why did you go through so much trouble to come to Youcheng County to look for a job?"

Although Yang Dong was shocked by Qin Lin's age, he knew that he was in an interview. He hurriedly replied, "My parents died early and I was raised by my grandfather's family. I'm not young anymore. My grandfather wants me to find a girlfriend quickly and get married."

"Isn't Ming City famous for having beautiful women? A young woman from Ming City is the most flirtatious. Sows are everywhere in Tian City, and women in Ning City are the most obscene? Therefore, how can I find a girlfriend in Ning City? Isn't it good to find a beautiful woman in Youcheng County or Sand City?"

"Of course. Most importantly, my grandfather's house was demolished and we got three houses. My grandfather and uncle gave me one. It will definitely be easier for me to find a girlfriend in Youcheng County."

"…" Qin Lin.

"…" Zhao Moqing.

They looked at each other silently. So this was the real reason.

He really had a good grandfather and uncle.

Back then, they had to secretly register their marriage because they did not have a house.

A person also appeared in Qin Lin's mind. It was the breeder, Zhang Guizhu.

Why were the reasons for these two returning to Youcheng County to look for a job so similar?

Zhang Guizhu was a young lady with good conditions and was also beautiful. Because she was an only child and her father had high blood pressure and was not in good health, he hoped that she would not marry out of town. She could return to Youcheng County to find a job and a local boyfriend.

At this moment, Yang Dong continued, "Therefore, it's naturally best to have a stable job while looking for a girlfriend in Youcheng County. Coincidentally, Qinglin Villa has a job that suits my profession. Everyone knows that the job here is the best in Youcheng County."

Qin Lin glanced at Zhao Moqing and asked for her opinion.

Zhao Moqing nodded at him. Yang Dong could pass her interview for the time being. She would only know the rest after he went to work.

After all, many problems could not be seen through in an interview. That was why there had to be a trial period.

Seeing Zhao Moqing nod, Qin Lin also said to Yang Dong, "Mr. Yang Dong, you've been accepted. The internship period is a month. I'll get someone to familiarize you with the environment later."

"Thank you, President Qin. I'll perform well." Yang Dong was clearly relieved.

Qin Lin took out his phone and called Chen Dabei to ask him to come over.

Chen Dabei arrived not long after. He entered the office and asked respectfully, "Boss, Lady Boss, what can I do for you?"

Qin Lin pointed at Yang Dong and said, "Yang Dong has just been hired. Bring him to the HR department to settle the recruitment procedures. Then, bring him to familiarize himself with the situation at the duck house and choose a place to build the duck manure fermentation room…"

"Okay, Boss!" Chen Dabei nodded and walked to Yang Dong's side to call him out of the office before closing the door.

In the office.

When Zhao Moqing saw the two of them leave, she said, "By the way, we've already recruited four people to raise the ducks. I'll get them to come over tomorrow. When will your ducks arrive?"

"Tomorrow. We'll wait for Master Ma and the others to separate that reservoir area with barbed wire," Qin Lin said as he pulled Zhao Moqing over to sit on his lap. His palm also caressed her flesh-colored stockings.

These stockings were also made of silk. Although they felt good, they were clearly much worse than the Quality 1 stockings produced by the system.

"You can't tear this!" Zhao Moqing clearly thought of Qin Lin's excitement when he tore the stockings previously.

Qin Lin rolled his eyes at her. These were not stockings produced by a game. It was impossible for them to arouse his desire to tear them apart.

He returned back to business and said, "The ducks will be here tomorrow. We have to order a batch of feed, cleaning tools, and fermentation ingredients first."

Zhao Moqing nodded and said, "I'll arrange it later."

As she spoke, there was a knock on the door. She hurriedly got off Qin Lin's lap and sat back at her desk. She shouted, "Come in."

Gao Yaoyao came in with a strange expression. "Boss, Sister Moqing, there's a problem with the bridal chamber."

Chapter 256

"What's wrong?" Zhao Moqing asked with a frown.

Gao Yaoyao explained, "It's almost 12 noon but no one checked out."

When Zhao Moqing heard this news, she frowned and logged into the villa's application to check the situation of the bridal chamber.

Like those hotels, the bridal chamber in the villa required a deposit. Furthermore, the accommodation was to be checked out before 12 noon the next day.

With the villa's current project, even if they came late on the first day, or if they could not finish it in a day because of the Sea of Flowers and rafting, they would still check out before 12 noon the next day.

Part of the empty bridal chamber was reserved for the tourists at the villa, while the rest was placed online for reservations.

After Zhao Moqing logged into the backstage and saw the exact situation, she said in surprise, "Only 15 people have checked out. The others have all renewed their rooms?"

Qin Lin also walked to the computer and saw this situation.

It was somewhat unexpected.

After all, the price of the bridal chamber had just increased.

However, he understood the situation after thinking about it. The tourists who had booked the bridal chamber yesterday should have some insomnia. After experiencing the sleep-enhancing effect, they did not care about the 100 yuan at all, so they had renewed it.

Had the price risen enough? Or did he not understand enough about the suffering of insomniacs?

Tourists did not check out and wanted to continue staying. In this situation, other hotel owners would have laughed crazily and wished they could renew their reservations for a few more days.

Qin Lin frowned. This situation was not good for the tourists in their villa.

This upgraded 'sleep-aiding bridal chamber' was to add characteristics to the villa and provide it to tourists who were traveling that day. It was a supporting project and would even give tourists a sense of anticipation.

Zhao Moqing also frowned and said, "Qin Lin, should we raise the price again? Or limit the time for tourists to book a room?"

She was in charge of so many things in the villa that her horizons had long broadened. She could not underestimate the anticipation of tourists.

The current situation of only sleeping and not playing did not match the benign state of the scenic area.

"Let's discuss it," Qin Lin said.

These tourists were forcing him to raise the price of the bridal chamber again.

The two of them discussed it and made a decision. It was clearly better to limit their stay than raise the price again.

Those who did not know better would think that their villa was greedy for money and deliberately said that they did not have a room just because they wanted to increase the price. However, their villa did not need to rely on this house to increase the price by 100 or 200 yuan.

Despite that, the keyboard warrior's sense of justice would ignore these, and the troll did not even have a brain.

It was quickly approaching noon. There were already many insomniacs online who were guarding the booking link on the official website of the villa. After knowing that Qinglin Villa had sandalwood to help them sleep and deliver three grams of special sandalwood incense powder, they wanted to book a room to experience Qinglin Villa.

In the luxurious hotel.

Wan Gu walked out of the toilet with trembling legs. Yesterday's arrangements were too much for him to handle, especially that long-legged lady. She almost tortured him to death. When he got up, his legs were weak.

Naturally, if he could, he wouldn't mind arranging for the long-legged lady to do it again. The other one was fine, but she wasn't gentle at all. She treated him like a free labor cow and made his experience very unpleasant.

After sitting down, Wan Gu picked up his phone and continued to click on the booking link to Qinglin Villa.

He did not forget his business. He was still thinking of staying in the bridal chamber at Qinglin Villa for a few nights and leaving more sandalwood incense powder to help him sleep. This concerned his plan to save his broken biological clock.

However, he had been trying to book a room for half a day since he woke up in the morning. The notification he received now was that there was no room to book.

"F*ck, are you not giving the insomniac a way out?" Wan Gu complained.

This was the first time he had seen it so difficult to book a room.

It wasn't that difficult to book a five-star hotel, right?

Insomnia was prone to being irritable, which made him directly irritable.

At this moment, countless insomniacs on the Internet who had no room to book were as irritable as him.

However, Qin Lin had no choice today.

The tourists from yesterday had all renewed their booking. He could only get Zhao Moqing to send a video to explain the reason and announce the limited time for the bridal chamber tomorrow.

Not long after noon, the company building the pontoon bridge came. After Qin Lin told them the request and the selected materials, he signed the contract. The other party would enter the construction tomorrow.

As soon as he sent away the company building the pontoon bridge, Qin Lin looked at the screen in his mind. The Xiangshui Tribute Rice in the two paddy fields had ripened. The ripening period of the Xiangshui Tribute Rice was different from the plants like watermelons and strawberries, so the time was staggered.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to harvest the Xiangshui Tribute Rice. He kept the Quality 2 rice and sold the Quality 1 rice in the game. Just as he was about to continue planting the Xiangshui Tribute Rice, he thought of something and controlled his game character to go to the Ore Town's seed shop.

He could just see if there were any floating plants in the game.

Since he wanted to build a pontoon bridge and an ornamental duck area, he had to make it as perfect as possible.

Reality was not a game. Once there were many ducks, even if there was a scientific breeding method that could ferment the feces to raise fish, the water quality would be affected in the summer heat.

Therefore, on the basis of scientific breeding, it could cooperate with some floating plants to purify the water quality. Many organic farms that were open to the public did this.

Floating plants were a type of floating water plant that did not grow in the bottom mud.

Chapter 257

These plants themselves contained chlorophyll or other pigments that could absorb solar energy and photosynthesize with the carbon dioxide in the water and air to produce carbohydrates and oxygen. Not only could they purify the air, but they could also purify the water environment. They were also important for matching fish.

Most importantly, the effects of the game were definitely stronger than in reality.

Furthermore, these floating plants also had a decorative effect on the scenery.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to look at the paddy field seeds. The aquatic floating plants he wanted could not appear in the catalogs of Level 1, 2, and 3 plants.

There were many types of plants that could be planted in Level 1 and 2 paddy fields. Previously, there were Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds, and he could also cultivate eel and loach. He did not look at anything else carefully.

Previously, he had only scanned it roughly and realized that the other plant villas were useless.

After flipping the crop in the paddy field, he really discovered that there was a kind of duckweed seed in the Level 2 paddy field:

[Willow duckweed seed]

[This is a kind of duckweed plant. It has an extremely short growth period and an extremely rich production. After planting it, it can grow beautiful willow leaf duckweed. It can be used to purify the air and water environment. It can also decorate the lake scenery. As the water ripples, it can show beautiful wavy strips.]

Qin Lin bought the willow leaf duckweed without hesitation and let the game character return to the ranch. He scattered the seeds of the willow leaf duckweed on the two paddy fields.

Furthermore, he quickly knew how fast it grew.

It had only been a few hours. Before evening, he had received a notification in his mind that the willow leaf had ripened.

He decisively controlled the game character to pick ripe willow leaf duckweed and scattered new seeds on the two Level 2 paddy fields.

The area in the reservoir that was used to raise ducks was very big. The willow leaf duckweed harvested in one go was definitely not enough.

Then, he left the villa and drove the blue truck to the warehouse and entered the game.

When he arrived at the storage room, he was a little stunned to see the harvested willow leaf duckweed. This was because they had all been stuffed into sacks, and only some leaves were exposed.

There were also the words 'Willow Leaf Duckweed' written on the sack.

Furthermore, there were many sacks. There were a total of 10. Nine of them were placed together, and the other was placed separately.

It should be a difference in quality.

Qin Lin went over and lifted a sack. It was about 40 catties, which meant that there were a total of 400 catties of willow leaf duckweed and 200 catties of paddy field.

Then, he saw the note on the bag of willow leaf duckweed:

[Willow leaf duckweed: Quality 1]

[A very beautiful duckweed plant with many effects: photosynthesis +1, purification of the water environment +1, beauty +1, attractiveness +1, appearance +1.]

Clearly, these three attributes were unique to duckweed.

Photosynthesis could make the air better. Purifying the water environment could make the water clear, purify the water, and eliminate some of the hidden dangers of having too many ducks.

There was no need to mention the beauty, attractiveness, and appearance. They were all excellent attributes for the scenic area.

This was already an attribute similar to the triangular plum.

It seemed that the pontoon + ornamental duck project was a little sloppy.

If it was free, who knew how many people would flood in? It would be difficult to control.

With these attributes, coupled with the appearance, beauty, and uniqueness of the duck, it seemed like he still had to charge a fee to enter. Just like the Sea of Flowers, 50 yuan was enough.

He could make the pontoon bridge longer with more twists and forks, in order to accommodate more people. He could also make a walking area on the shore, which was a strolling viewing area.

Besides, didn't tourists have a hobby of feeding? They would definitely not be able to resist feeding those beautiful and cute white ducks.

Therefore, when the time came, he would write a sign that said, "In order to prevent ducks from getting sick, it's forbidden to feed outside food. If you want to feed them, you can buy the villa's special duck feed."

It seemed a good deal to take tourists' tickets and ask them to spend money to buy feed to help him raise the ducks.

Qin Lin looked at the bag of willow leaf duckweed and saw the message.

[Willow leaf duckweed: Quality 2]

[A very beautiful duckweed plant with many effects: photosynthesis +2, purification of the water environment +2, beauty +2, attractiveness +2, appearance +2.]

Seeing this, Qin Lin was already looking forward to it.

He believed that this duckweed + ornamental duck was definitely a beautiful scene.

Next, he brought all the bags of willow leaf duckweed out of the game and placed them in the truck.

Before preparing to return to the villa, he entered the game again and brought out the three Quality 2 duck eggs.

At night, he could try this duck egg.

He, Zhao Moqing, and his mother would each have one.

He wondered if they would believe him if he said it was a duck egg.

Chapter 258

Qin Lin transported the duckweed to the reservoir. The car did not enter the villa and could enter the reservoir by another way.

When the time came, he had to set up a security booth to prevent outsiders from barging in.

When the car stopped, Chen Dabei immediately brought a few security guards forward. He knew that his boss must have brought something over again.

Therefore, without Qin Lin's instructions, he said to the security guards very tactfully, "Go up and move the things."

Qin Lin got out of the car and asked Chen Dabei, "How's the progress on installing the temporary barbed wire?"

Chen Dabei explained, "It's almost done. It'll be done before dinner."

Qin Lin nodded and asked, "How's Yang Dong?"

Chen Dabei did not think too much about it and said, "His personality is not bad and he's not lazy. After investigating the place where the duck feces are fermented, he even helped Master Ma decorate the duck house. He seems to be more professional than Master Ma in some aspects."

"I see." Qin Lin nodded.

The security guards removed all 10 sacks from the car.

Chen Dabei opened a bag curiously. "Boss, these are all duckweed. Are we going to put them in that reservoir?"

"Yes!" Qin Lin instructed, "Spread all of this in. Remember to untie the knots."

"Understood," Chen Dabei replied. He led a few security guards to carry the duckweed to the shore and got someone to pull the bamboo raft over.

They had to transport the duckweed to the middle area through the bamboo raft before scattering it.

The willow leaf duckweed was not big. It was in the shape of a thin willow leaf. When it was sprinkled into the water, it would scatter with the water. A few of them would be specially separated after being tied.

Floating duckweed had strong vitality. Not only could it survive all year round, but it could also grow again even if it was torn apart.

Not long after, Chen Dabei threw the last bag of duckweed into the water.

When the duckweed spread out in the water, Chen Dabei realized that these duckweed seemed to be very beautiful.

A security guard at the side said in surprise, "Manager Chen, these duckweeds are much more beautiful than the ones I saw in my hometown river. I was too busy to notice earlier, but now that I see them, I can't help but want to take a few more glances."

Chen Dabei naturally had the same feeling, but he did not show it in front of his subordinates. He said as if he understood everything, "This is something Boss bought with money. Is it comparable to something that no one wants even if it's given in the wilderness?"

"That's true!" The security guard felt that his supervisor made sense.

Qin Lin looked at the willow leaf duckweed with a happy expression. With the enhancement of the game attribute, the effect was better than he had imagined.

He roughly knew what Du Mu's 'Green Brocade Lake of Duckweed' meant.

When this area of water was embellished with willow leaf duckweed, and even some floating plants like water lilies appeared in the system in the future, the interweaving would definitely be beyond everyone's expectations.

With another group of beautiful white ducks swimming on it, that beauty would be more vivid.

'Floating duckweed sending clear water' and 'red palm clearing waves' were clearly a good combination.

After scattering the duckweed, Chen Dabei brought people to the other side to help Master Ma and the others install the temporary barbed wire. When he was done, the sky had already turned dark.

He immediately went to the shore to report to Qin Lin. "Boss, the temporary barbed wire has been installed."

"You've worked hard. Get everyone to eat in the canteen. I'll get the kitchen to cook a big item for you to eat." As Qin Lin spoke, he took out his phone and made arrangements for the kitchen. At the same time, he walked towards the truck and took out a bag containing three Quality 2 duck eggs.

It was indeed very difficult for these people to work on the water in the cold. Cooking a Quality 2 black carp weighing more than 30 catties could make them eat very happily.

When Chen Dabei saw Qin Lin leave, he shouted at the others with a happy expression, "The boss said that there will be an additional meal tonight. He'll give us a wild big fish to eat."

When the security guards heard this, they immediately cheered.

"Long live the boss!"

"We're in for a treat tonight!"

"Manager Chen, ask the boss if we can still work tomorrow. I still want to eat something big."

"…"

The wild goods in the villa were limited. No matter how rich the tourists were, they might not be able to eat them. Previously, the event boss had also killed big goods to reward everyone. Although they did not eat much, the taste was beautiful and they had been thinking about it.

Since their boss had specially killed one for them today, they could eat more.

"Manager Chen, are you talking about that kind of wild fish?" Yang Dong also ran to Chen Dabei's side with anticipation. He had seen many videos of Qinglin Mountain before coming to apply.

This was the quickest way to find out about the cottage. He'd seen videos of big wild fish, too. The tourists who'd eaten it had praised the thing to the skies.

Besides, he had never eaten such a big item before.

"Yes." Chen Dabei nodded at Yang Dong and said, "On the first day of coming to the villa, you almost froze on this cold water. Eat more later. Other than big goods, our villa's employee meals are also very good."

Yang Dong was naturally looking forward to it. He followed Chen Dabei to the staff canteen, but when he arrived, what attracted his attention were the waitresses and cashier girls.

Only then did he realize that the scenic area was a service industry. There must be many young and beautiful girls in their positions. He had not forgotten the mission his grandfather had given him.

Yang Dong admitted to being envious as he watched the security guard he had a good afternoon with run to a cute waitress.

Chapter 259

He then saw a beautiful young lady in casual clothes sitting beside the waitress. She caught his eye and he immediately asked Chen Dabei, "Manager Chen, what does that beauty do in the villa?"

"She's the villa's pet breeder," Chen Dabei said as he glanced at Zhang Guizhu.

…

On the other side…

Qin Lin entered the original hall with three Quality 2 duck eggs and saw his mother and Zhao Moqing walking over.

During this period of time, Li Kai, Li Qing, and Professor Ren would eat here. He, his mother, and Zhao Moqing's meals were also prepared by Master Lin. There was no need to trouble Master Lin to cook in two different places.

Li Kai and Li Qing were already sitting in their usual seats by the window.

Professor Ren also sat at another table with his assistant.

As for Professor Liu, he had already returned to Ming City with his research assistant.

When Lin Fen saw her son coming over, she asked, "Xiao Lin, what are you holding?"

Qin Lin smiled and explained, "Duck eggs. I brought them back specially today. We each have one."

"Duck egg?" Zhao Moqing saw that the bag was not the right size and took it in confusion. When she opened it, she was stunned.

She took out a big duck egg and said in surprise, "Qin Lin, you call this duck egg?"

Li Qing and the others were clearly attracted to it.

The duck egg was too big.

Li Kai said directly, "Brother Qin, this is an ostrich egg, right?"

Qin Lin explained, "This is really a duck egg. It's different from ordinary duck eggs. The duck that laid this egg weighs more than 40 catties."

"More than 40 catties? There's such a big duck?" Lin Fen was shocked. She had raised ducks in the countryside in the past and had no idea that ducks could grow to more than 40 catties.

Zhao Moqing was also in disbelief. "Qin Lin, you're going to buy such big ducks for your duck house?"

When Qin Lin heard this question, he said the excuse he had made up, "Of course not in the beginning. I originally planned to buy a batch of ordinary ducks. It's just that someone in the livestock wholesale market promoted a batch of ducks to me. He said that the breed had changed and three of them had grown to 40 catties. These eggs were born from those three ducks. I plan to go over tomorrow to take a look. It's just that the price the other party quoted is very expensive. I haven't decided if I want to buy them."

"It's very expensive?" When Li Qing heard his words, he frowned and said, "Qin Lin, is he making a trap for you? I've really never seen a duck weighing 40 catties, especially such a big duck egg. Don't tell me he's tricking you with an ostrich egg?"

Li Kai also nodded and said, "That's right. Brother Qin, you have to be careful. It'll be troublesome if someone really sets a trap for you. I've never seen such a big duck egg."

Real friends would often get to the bottom of things at this time. The two of them treated Qin Lin as a friend. When they heard the loophole in Qin Lin's words, the first thing they thought of was to worry about him.

"No wonder when I said I was going to the other party's livestock farm, they kept finding excuses," Qin Lin said awkwardly.

He really did not expect this uncle and nephew to think that someone had set him up.

Now, he could only change his strategy and follow the thoughts of his uncle and nephew.

At this moment, Professor Ren walked forward and said to Li Kai, "Xiao Li, you're an associate professor after all. Won't you know if it's a duck egg with a test? Are there any instruments that can detect it?"

"That's right. Thank you for reminding me, Professor Ren. My concern confused me for a moment." Li Kai patted his head and led Li Qing into the shed built in the backyard to take out a few instruments and some tools. Then, he said to Qin Lin, "Brother Qin, give me an egg. I'll help you test it. If it's not a duck egg, the other party has definitely set you up."

Qin Lin knew that this was a duck egg.

But he could not say it.

Besides, Li Kai was doing this for his own good.

He could only take out a duck egg and hand it to Li Kai.

Li Kai took the duck egg, cracked it on a bowl, and began to fiddle with it.

Professor Ren walked over and checked.

Zhao Moqing and Lin Fen's attention were also attracted by Li Kai, wanting to know the outcome.

At this moment, an apprentice brought out the dishes and placed them on the table without anyone paying attention.

With such an experimental professional instrument, it did not take long to detect the duck egg.

After some time, under Li Kai's operation, the instrument's screen displayed the test data.

Li Kai looked at the data in surprise and said, "This… is really a duck egg."

"Is it really a duck egg?" Li Qing could not help but pick up the broken duck egg and look at it.

"Is this duck egg real?" Lin Fen asked Zhao Moqing.

"Yes." Zhao Moqing nodded.

Professor Ren looked at the test data and said, "Not only is it a duck egg, but it also has many substances that are beneficial to the human body. There are many ingredients that can nourish one's appearance. The duck that gave birth to this duck egg might really be a mutated breed."

Qin Lin took the opportunity to say, "In other words, the other party didn't lie to me. Is there really such a big duck?"

"To be able to give birth to such a big duck egg, that duck must not be small." Li Kai nodded, then frowned. "But if it's really a mutation, and the egg can nourish the face and beauty, why did the other party sell it to Boss Qin? Can't he keep it for himself to cultivate?"

Li Qing smiled and said, "This means that there's still something wrong with that duck, and the other party doesn't have the ability to solve it. Therefore, he wants to find a receiver to earn a sum of money, lest it all go down the drain in the end and he earns nothing."

Li Kai reacted and said, "That's possible. I heard something at the research institute. A small orchard owner was lucky to obtain a mutated grape and secretly cultivated it himself. He was afraid that outsiders would know."

"But the mutated variety was accompanied by many problems that ordinary people could not solve. In the end, the small orchard owner cultivated the mutated grape to death. When he found out that a company was willing to buy it for five million yuan, he sat on the ground and cried."

"Then if there's a problem with this duck, it means that we shouldn't buy it?" Zhao Moqing knew that there was a problem with the other party's duck after listening for a long time.

Qin Lin did not expect things to be so dramatic.

There was no problem with the duck, but Li Kai and Li Qing did not know the situation. According to their guess, it was normal. It was even possible for another person to think of a more bizarre plot.

Professor Ren looked at the test data and thought for a moment before saying, "Boss Qin, there's nothing wrong with this duck's egg, and there's no harmful substance. Just this alone shows that this mutated duck is very valuable."

"Whether or not the other party knows there's a problem with the duck and wants you to take over, you can keep the ducks first. There are a lot of problems with mutant breeds, but just because the other party can't solve them doesn't mean everyone can't."

"I know an old friend with skills in this area. If there's really a problem with the ducks, I'll contact them for you and get that old friend to come over and help you resolve it."

He was repaying Qin Lin for letting him study the medicinal wine. It was true that mutated varieties were rare, but compared to the possibility of the Qinglin Medicinal Wine's denaturation element, it was not something a few ducks could compare to.

If there was a problem with the duck, he would get his old friend to come over and help resolve it. It could be considered making up for it.

Qin Lin really felt that it was ridiculous.

This was a clear arrangement for him.

Now this story was even more bizarre than the one he had made up.

But the key was that this was led by Professor Ren, so it was not a problem no matter how ridiculous it was.

Really, he hadn't even thought about that.

At this point, he pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I was planning to give up after hearing what Li Qing and the others said. Since Professor Ren has said so, I'll contact them tomorrow."

"Qin Lin, I'll get Master Lin to make these two remaining duck eggs into egg soup for everyone to try," Zhao Moqing said as she carried the remaining two duck eggs into the kitchen.

This made Li Qing and Li Kai look forward to it. They were also foodies. They had never eaten such a big duck egg in their lives.

When they reached the kitchen, she handed two duck eggs to Master Lin and said, "Make these two duck eggs into egg soup and give Professor Ren, Mr. Li, and the others a share."

"Two duck eggs for three portions of egg custard?" Master Lin almost subconsciously said, but when he turned around and saw the two duck eggs, he was dumbfounded. "Lady Boss, are these duck eggs?"

Damn… He was inexperienced and had never seen such a big duck egg.

Zhao Moqing nodded and explained, "It's a duck egg, a new breed. The villa might produce such duck eggs in the future."

"Is it really a duck egg? My god." Master Lin picked up one of them and looked at it, feeling amazed.

Chapter 260

The Quality 2 duck egg soup was quickly prepared by Master Lin.

Zhao Moqing, Lin Fen, and Li Qing were all looking forward to it. After all, these ducks were a mutated breed. No one had eaten this kind of duck egg before.

However, Qin Lin knew that although the attributes of this duck egg were very good, without the deliciousness and texture, it should taste no different from an ordinary duck egg.

He took a sip and indeed could not tell the difference between it and ordinary duck egg soup.

However, the attributes of a Quality 2 duck egg+2 would definitely not be the same as ordinary duck eggs. It was just that the effect was not shown on the surface.

The night passed.

The next day, Zhao Moqing sat in front of the makeup mirror as usual. She suddenly leaned in front of Qin Lin in surprise. "Hubby, is my skin very good this morning?"

"Yes, it makes me want to take a bite." Qin Lin looked over and nodded.

Wasn't that so? She hadn't put on any makeup yet. Her skin was clearly fair and translucent, and she looked a little more compact and delicate.

Actually, he felt something when he got up. His face was clearly refreshed, which it hadn't been before.

It was obvious that it was a Quality 2 duck egg beauty enhancement +2. The effect was clearly stronger than he had imagined.

Zhao Moqing looked at herself in the mirror in surprise. "Professor Ren said that the duck egg has a beautifying effect. I didn't expect it to be so effective."

Qin Lin leaned over with a smile and hugged Zhao Moqing to his thigh. He teased, "It shouldn't just be the effect of beauty enhancement. There should be other effects."

Zhao Moqing asked curiously, "What other effects?"

Qin Lin leaned into Zhao Moqing's ear and whispered teasingly, "Didn't you feel it last night?"

"Ah!" Zhao Moqing's ears turned red from Qin Lin's words. "What nonsense are you talking about so early in the morning?"

Qin Lin smiled slyly.

Nonsense?

It was not nonsense, but practical.

The benefits of nourishing the lungs and blood were not a joke. The effects of nourishing the yin were even more serious.

Zhao Moqing looked at Qin Lin's cheap smile and snorted heavily. Then, she sat on Qin Lin's lap and started putting on makeup in front of the mirror.

Actually, she still enjoyed Qin Lin's little romance at home.

Qin Lin also looked at the game on the screen in his mind. Other than the ripe crops, the willow leaf duckweed in the two paddy fields had ripened again.

This was already the third batch of mature plants. The second batch had matured after the battle with Zhao Moqing late last night. He had harvested and planted the third batch.

After harvesting the third batch of willow leaf duckweed, there were 20 sacks in the storage room, a total of 800 catties.

He continued to harvest the other mature crops and controlled the game character to head to the ranch.

There were round duck eggs lying on the floor of the duck house again. Furthermore, there were more duck eggs than yesterday.

This was because the 50 ducks in the second batch had already grown completely.

He would bring them all out of the game today.

Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing ate breakfast together and went to the warehouse.

There was a lot to do in the morning. Not only did he have to send the ripe crops to the villa, but he also had to take those willow leaf ducklings out of the game and transport them to the villa.

When Qin Lin arrived at the warehouse, he transported the ripe crops to the villa first. After getting Chen Dabei to bring people into the villa, he drove back to the warehouse and instructed Chen Dabei to bring people to the reservoir to wait.

When he arrived at the warehouse again, Qin Lin immediately entered the game and moved all the 20 sacks of willow leaf duckweed out before transporting them to the reservoir.

When he stopped the car, Chen Dabei was already waiting with his men. At the same time, Yang Dong was there.

Master Ma was also busy on the other side with his men. Although there were four duck houses now, there was no harm in building a few more.

Qin Lin also instructed Chen Dabei, "Move all the duckweed out of the car and scatter them in the water."

"Okay, Boss." Chen Dabei nodded and brought people to move the 20 sacks of willow leaf duckweed down. He used the bamboo raft to transport the willow leaf duckweed into the water again. Then, he began to sprinkle the area from yesterday.

With yesterday's experience, Chen Dabei and the others were clearly faster today. It took about the same time to scatter 20 bags as yesterday.

However, the area where the duckweed floated in the water was twice as big as before. It looked even more spectacular.

From afar, as the water surged, it was as if there were clear waves dancing in that area.

This scene was already beautiful, and under the attraction attribute, it attracted even more attention.

Qin Lin took out his phone and took a video of that area.

His video-taking skills were very bad, but with the attributes of the camera, he realized that the video he took was still very good. It actually had a hint of artistic conception.

Qin Lin was looking forward to the scene of this area being decorated with willow leaves and ducklings wandering around.

With that in mind, he hurriedly drove the truck out of the villa again. This time, he was going to transport the ducks.

Before going to the warehouse, he specially went to buy a PVP tarp. When the time came, he could wrap the entire boxcar in the tarp so that the ducks could not escape.

At the same time, he bought some wooden planks and wooden shelves and placed them in the car. They were divided into three layers and could increase the number of ducks transported.

What he wanted to transport was not only those big ducks that had grown up. He also planned to buy 300 small ducklings in the future. There were a total of 400 ducks, and he might not be able to transport them in one trip.

It was enough to bring out 400 ducks from the game.

After that, he could cultivate the eggs laid by these ducks in reality.

Chapter 261

When the time came, he would have to find an abandoned ranch and say that the address filled in by the duck seller was fake. That would not be enough for Professor Ren and the others to say that the other party wanted to scam him into taking over.

After making preparations, Qin Lin headed to the warehouse.

When he arrived at the warehouse, he drove the car in and locked the door behind him, in case any ducks ran out of the warehouse when he brought them out of the game later.

After entering the game, he went straight to the ranch duckhouse.

The batch of 50 ducks bought at the back were all Quality 1. There were no more Quality 2 ducks.

After a series of quacking white ducks flew around, he grabbed the 100 big ducks out of the game one by one.

As for the other 300 ducklings he had planned to buy, he had not bought them yet. When he sent these 100 back, he would come to the warehouse again. He would still have time to buy them then.

Qin Lin quickly drove to the reservoir.

Chen Dabei had already led the security guards to the innermost part of the reservoir and was busy following Master Ma.

Since it was a duck house with fish, the fishing net box had to be prepared. The fish had to be raised in the fishing net box. Otherwise, wouldn't the fish swim directly into the reservoir?

When the time came, other than taking out the hundreds of wild fish in the game and putting them in, he would also buy some fish seedlings from outside.

The pontoon bridge could also be built around the fishing net box. The fishing project could be moved here.

The pool in the villa could be transformed into other projects, such as the Internet celebrity bridge that many scenic spots on the Internet had built, or they could directly plant lotus flowers.

Previously, when he found out that Level 2 paddy fields could plant plants, there were lotus flowers inside. Presumably, lotus flowers with game attributes would be very popular.

Over at the duck house.

Yang Dong was also moving straw and grain shells into the duck house with four middle-aged men he had never seen before. They should be getting padding.

The padding for the duck house was usually mixed with straw, wheat straw, grain shells, or wood shavings. After raising the duck, they had to add padding the next day and make it higher where the eggs were. When it was cooling in summer, it could lay a layer of sand or stone.

Zhao Moqing was also there, supervising Yang Dong and the others. Lin Fen was also there holding Wang Cai's leash.

When they saw Qin Lin return, they walked towards him.

Zhao Moqing approached Qin Lin and said, "Qin Lin, the four people working with Yang Dong are the breeders specially recruited to raise the ducks. Yang Dong will be in charge of the duck house for the time being."

"I see." Qin Lin nodded.

The duck house had just been built and was not managed. Since it was a new recruitment, and Yang Dong was professional and familiar with raising ducks, it was naturally better for him to manage it first. He just took it as hiring a duck house manager.

He did not plan to promote any of his previous employees to a manager. There was no need to get an outsider to manage an insider.

Moreover, there was no need to separate fermenting duck feces from raising ducks. It was best to let Yang Dong teach others how to ferment duck feces. Firstly, it would be more efficient in the future. Secondly, if Yang Dong resigned in the future, there would be others to replace him.

Lin Fen had already walked to the car and asked curiously, "Xiao Lin, are those 40 catties of ducks inside?"

The reason why she followed Zhao Moqing to the reservoir was that she was curious about the duck her son had mentioned yesterday.

"Woof!"

Wang Cai seemed to be equally curious. It ran to the car and placed its front claws on the car. Its claws clawed at the PVP tarp.

Zhao Moqing also looked at Hu Qing. She had never seen such a big duck before and was equally curious.

Seeing that his wife and mother were so curious, Qin Lin also shouted at the busy Yang Dong, "Yang Dong, bring them over."

Yang Dong put down the straw in his hand and ran over with the four middle-aged men. When he heard the quacking of ducks in the car, he asked, "Boss, are we going to let the ducks inside enter?"

"Yes!" Qin Lin nodded. "Let the ducks out, but be careful. These ducks are a little big."

"Boss, don't worry. I've seen even the biggest ducks." Yang Dong smiled and walked to the car.

The four feeders also followed with a smile.

They had all raised ducks in other farms before and knew all kinds of ducks.

Yang Dong untied the rope that was wrapped around the tarpaulin and lifted a corner of it. As soon as he poked his head in, he saw an overly big duck beak leaning towards him.

"F*ck…" Yang Dong exclaimed and retreated in fear.

This scene made the four breeders frown. Before they could react, they saw an unbelievably big snow-white duck flip out of the tarpaulin, pass Yang Dong's head, and land outside. It even proudly spread its snow-white wings and flapped.

"Boss, are you sure this is a duck?" Yang Dong looked at the big white duck in surprise.

It was really difficult for him to call it a duck.

"Quack~ Quack~" The big white duck quacked at the right time, as if it was telling Yang Dong that it was a duck.

This time, Yang Dong and the four breeders were shocked.

This was really a duck.

They finally knew what their boss meant. It was really a little big.

They would believe it if it was a swan if they did not look at it carefully. Besides, even a swan was not so big.

Zhao Moqing and Lin Fen knew that there were more than 40 catties of ducks last night, but they were still very surprised to see them now.

The key was that this big white duck was too beautiful.

Upon closer inspection, given its size, it looked even better than a swan when it spread its wings to display itself. It was like an elegant princess.

"Woof!" Wang Cai suddenly cried. It, who had been pulling at the tarpaulin, pounced excitedly when it saw the big white duck, as if it had found something fun.

Chapter 262

In an instant, duck and dog cries intertwined and started to dance.

Wang Cai was a black wolfhound and was very fast. In addition, after entering the game and learning the Frisbee skill, its ability had increased. Ordinary black wolfhounds could not compare to it.

However, this Quality 2 duck was actually being chased back and forth without being caught.

Yang Dong went forward again and opened the tarpaulin completely with the other four breeders.

The ducks inside were clearly suffocated. At this moment, without any obstruction, they flapped their wings and jumped out of the car. For a moment, the sound of wings flapping could be heard.

Wang Cai did not catch the Quality 2 duck. When it saw these new ducks, it turned around and pounced on them.

For a moment, there were only the panicked cries of ducks.

Wang Cai whimpered as if to express its excitement. It pounced on the big white duck and the other one.

The key was that it was very discerning. It specially looked for three of Quality 2, as if it did not care to chase after the other small ones.

"Wang Cai, come back…" Lin Fen was afraid that Wang Cai would hurt the duck, so she hurriedly called out. However, just as she shouted, she heard Wang Cai cry out in pain.

Immediately after, Lin Fen watched in disbelief as Wang Cai was chased by the three big ducks. There were other ducks following behind.

What…

The majestic dog was actually chased away in a sorry state. Another wave of duck and dog cries intertwined.

Ducks were very docile animals. They were generally not aggressive. They were not like geese, which wanted to come and pick at you whether you provoked them or not. They were like tyrannical streetwalkers.

However, just because ducks were docile did not mean that they were not aggressive. Once they were in danger, some ducks would also be triggered to protect themselves. At that time, they would be very aggressive.

Besides, the bite of ducks hurt.

There was an experiment done by bored graduate students. They locked five groups of ducks and geese in small spaces. The geese would take the initiative to attack the ducks. In the end, the ducks would be forced to retaliate and fight the geese.

However, two groups of ducks actually scared the goose.

Ducks were like honest people. They were usually very docile and harmless, but if you pushed an honest person too far, you might end up very miserable.

Now, Wang Cai had angered the three docile white ducks. They chased after it non-stop with a large group of ducks cheering behind them.

The dog had been arrogant just now, but now it was too afraid to stop.

"Woof!"

Wang Cai ran towards Qin Lin and whimpered at him, asking its master for help.

However, the ducks chased after it noisily, as if they were honest people who had gone crazy to kill. Their aggressive appearance made Yang Dong and the four breeders not dare to go forward.

With the size of the three ducks, their combat strength would probably instantly kill the most ferocious geese.

Wang Cai ran around Qin Lin, and the three ducks chased after it.

Seeing that its master had no intention of helping it, the dog could only whine and run towards the villa. It had mastered the essence of fleeing.

The dog ran away, and the duck stopped chasing. For a moment, they walked around, as if they were curious about their unfamiliar surroundings.

"Let the ducks enter the house," Yang Dong said to the four breeders.

It was also very important to breed ducks. This concerned whether the ducks would go back to the duck house to eat or lay eggs.

The four of them entered the duck house and took out a small bag of feed. Zhao Moqing had ordered it previously. There was a lot of it, and it was temporarily enough for these ducks to eat.

The four of them arrived in front of the ducks and began to sprinkle the feed. When the ducks saw the feed, they pounced on it and squeezed to eat.

The four of them retreated like this and used the feed to lure the ducks into the duck houses, locking them into a few duck houses.

Qin Lin had been watching from the side. When they were all done, he instructed, "I'll leave this to you. There's also a batch of ducklings. I'm going to get them."

"Boss, don't worry. Leave it to us." Yang Dong smiled. He was very enthusiastic about the job at the villa now. It was not that he realized that his boss had the intention of letting him manage the duck house, but because of the girl he liked.

He had asked around last night and found out that the other party was called Zhang Guizhu. She raised pets in the villa. He had a common topic with her now, right?

Qin Lin drove away and headed to the warehouse. After parking the car, he looked at the screen in his mind and controlled his game character to buy ducklings from the neighboring ranch.

After buying all 300 ducklings, the game gold coins he had saved were almost used up.

After entering the game, he spent some time bringing the 300 ducklings out of the game.

When he brought the 300 ducklings to the duck house in the reservoir, he realized that Professor Ren and Li Kai were actually here. They were drawing blood for the ducks in the duck house.

When Li Kai saw Qin Lin return, he smiled and said, "Brother Qin, Professor Ren and I won't do anything today. We'll help you check if there are any superficial problems or harmful substances on this duck."

Professor Ren also said, "Boss Qin, from their mental state, there's nothing wrong with these ducks. We still have to take their blood for a test."

"Thank you." Although Qin Lin knew that there was no problem with this duck, these two were doing this out of goodwill. This was worthy of his gratitude.

At this moment, Li Kai guessed, "Brother Qin, I think there's a possibility that the other party sold these ducks to you because the mutation genes are unstable."

"Mutants come with coincidences. It's easy for offspring to regress because of genetic instability. These smaller ducks might have been cultivated from the eggs of those three big ones. As you can see, the ducks cultivated are not as big."

"I suspect the other party has even cultivated a lot. They spent a lot of money but couldn't solve the problem, so they wanted to find someone to take over and make a killing."

Professor Ren nodded and said, "That's possible. If there's no problem with the blood test, Boss Qin can use this duck's egg to try cultivating a duckling and see if there's any problem. If there is, I'll get that old friend to come over and help you deal with it immediately."

Qin Lin was stunned when he heard their words.

Wasn't this the excuse he had thought of in the beginning? He didn't expect the two scientists, Professor Ren and Li Kai, to think of the same thing.

Wasn't this a coincidence?

He actually thought like the two scientists. Should he be proud?

If he hadn't studied tourism, he might have become a scientist too.

Chapter 263

For the next week, Qin Lin spent most of his time at the reservoir to supervise the situation there.

Yang Dong and the four duck breeders were completely in work mode.

After a week, the big ducks also began to be put into the water. They could wander on their own without much effort.

Facing the vast water surface, the big ducks were clearly very enthusiastic. Every day, as soon as they were released, they would splash into the water.

On the other hand, he had to take good care of the 300 ducklings. Otherwise, they would accidentally follow the big ducks into the water.

The other thing was to build a duck manure fermentation room.

This would take some time.

The engineering team also appeared on the water.

It was the company Qin Lin had contacted a few days ago to build the floating bridge. They were much more professional. The floating buckets they transported were all of the same style. In the end, they would even design them to be wrapped in wood so that tourists could not see the existence of the floating buckets. They tried their best to maintain the beauty of the scenery.

Over the past few days, Qin Lin naturally kept transporting duckweed out of the game. Every few hours, a batch would mature. Every day, he would transport more than 3,000 catties of duckweed out and let Chen Dabei and the others spread it in the water.

In a week, the area of duckweed covered by that reservoir area became larger and larger.

The beautiful scene was already a little spectacular.

Occasionally, the snow-white ducks that wandered past were more like paintings. Their quacking was also filled with vitality in the spectacular clear grass.

Qinglin Villa was even more lively than before because the holidays had arrived.

The people from Youcheng County who were out working began to return to Youcheng County.

These people rarely came back. They only knew from the Internet that Qinglin Villa had popped up in their hometown. As locals, they could only rely on their phones to watch videos to understand it. Then, they were attracted by the popularity of the villa time and time again.

Now that they were back in their hometown, they naturally had to come to Qinglin Villa to take a look.

This also made the villa a little busy.

Sun Ming drove to the villa parking lot and stopped. He walked toward the villa's office with a document.

He was very familiar with this place. After all, this design and construction were all done by him.

He was here to discuss the ranch with Boss Qin today.

Previously, because Boss Qin had added the requirements of a racetrack, the blueprint for the ranch was almost unusable. The circulatory purification and drainage system had to be redone. The blueprint was only released today.

After entering the villa's office area, Sun Ming picked up his phone and called Qin Lin. "Hello, Boss Qin… Yes, I'm in your office… Are you in the reservoir?… There's no need. I'll find someone to ask and look for you…"

After hanging up, Sun Ming saw Gao Yaoyao moving things in with a little girl in a waiter's uniform.

"Mr. Sun, are you looking for our boss?" Gao Yaoyao asked with a smile when she saw Sun Ming.

She was one of the oldest employees, so she naturally knew the person in charge of the villa's expansion, Sun Ming.

Sun Ming nodded. "Yes. Which way is the reservoir?"

Gao Yaoyao said to the little girl behind her, "Xiao Ru, put down your things first and bring Mr. Sun to the boss."

"Okay, Sister Yaoyao." Chen Xiaoru put down her things and led Sun Ming out.

She was already on winter break and had specially come to Qinglin Villa to work. This was because the employees' meals in the villa were very delicious and the villa was lively.

Sun Ming followed Chen Xiaoru and quickly arrived at the reservoir. When he saw the scene inside, he clearly looked surprised.

That area was clearly different from the rest of the reservoir. At a glance, the waves that entered one's eyes gave off a breathtaking feeling, making one unable to help but be attracted.

The snow-white ducks that had wandered were also very beautiful.

And the three especially big ones in the distance were swans, right?

That elegant figure and the handsome face with wings spread out were indeed swans.

This clearly did not see that they were ducks.

Sun Ming was a little emotional. Boss Qin was going to turn this area of the reservoir into a treasure again.

It was really admirable.

It was not for no reason that the other party could turn the original dilapidated villa into the famous Qinglin Villa today. Otherwise, it was not that no one had contracted this reservoir after it had been here for so long. However, the people who contracted it only raised fish and so on. In the end, they gave up without earning money.

Who would have thought that this reservoir could be built into such a beautiful scene with simple duckweed and duck?

However, on the other hand, everyone knew that not anyone could build Qinglin Villa.

Many things were like that. It often seemed very simple afterward. Everyone felt that they could do it themselves. But no one had thought of why they themselves had not thought of it before others had done it.

Therefore, there was a saying: The first person to think of it was a genius, the second person to imitate it was a smart person, and the third and fourth person to do it was a mediocre person. As for those who felt that it was very simple and could do it themselves, they were stupid.

"President Sun, you're here?" Qin Lin saw Sun Ming and walked down from a bamboo raft.

"Uncle Qin, I'll go back first." Chen Xiaoru also greeted Qin Lin and skipped back to the villa.

Qin Lin looked at Chen Xiaoru and shook his head.

As the students were on winter break, a few students came to the villa to ask if they were recruiting winter leave workers.

Many companies were actually unwilling to hire winter and summer workers. Firstly, it was because the time was short. Secondly, there was an 'indirect' loss of employees. Thirdly, the efficiency could not keep up. Fourthly, it was troublesome to settle the salary alone.

Qin Lin didn't care about this, nor did he mind giving these students a chance to work during the summer and winter holidays. This was because after his father's cancer, his family was in trouble. He had always had a part-time job and had been working during the summer and winter holidays.

Chapter 264

He knew how hard this was.

When he saw the student who came to ask about the winter vacation, he thought of himself.

In today's society, children were all pampered. Which student would be willing to go out for summer leave if their family situation was slightly better?

Other than a small number of people who wanted to experience life, almost all of them were not in a good situation at home. Those who wanted to buy big things like computers but did not want to burden their families would work during the summer and winter holidays to earn some money.

At least when he was working part-time in university, none of the people he met who worked summer or winter break were from rich families.

Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing discussed for a while and decided to open up some winter break jobs. Coincidentally, the return trip had begun, and the villa was even busier.

The premise was that they had to be at least 16 years old. Even if he was kind, he could not find unnecessary trouble for himself.

He just did not expect Chief Chen's daughter to sneak in.

"President Qin, the ranch design plan is out according to your request." Sun Ming handed the document in his hand to Qin Lin and said, "But there's bad news. After adding the racetrack according to your request, the original 500 acres won't be enough unless you're willing to reduce the size of the racetrack."

"The scale can't be reduced. That would be too tight and not grand." Qin Lin shook his head. It was called a racetrack. The lowest requirement was that the horses could run. At least two horses could run and race, right? Otherwise, it would not be called a racetrack.

Sun Ming could only say helplessly, "President Qin, go and expand the land around the contract villa with the county. The county treats your villa as a treasure now. It won't be too troublesome for you to contract it."

"I see." Qin Lin nodded.

That was all he could do now.

From the villa's explosion to the contract for the river to build a drifting project, it was destined that the original 500 acres of land would be insufficient sooner or later.

Sun Ming continued, "President Qin, take a look at the design blueprint. If there's anything you're dissatisfied with, I'll get someone to change it when I get back."

Qin Lin opened the document and saw the ranch design inside.

Because of the addition of a large racetrack, the size of the ranch had increased greatly. According to the blueprint, there was only enough land left in the villa to build half of it.

Other than that, there were not many problems with the blueprint. He also mentioned some small problems to Sun Ming. After Sun Ming noted down the problems, he said, "President Qin, I'll get someone to refine the blueprint when I get back. In addition, the ranch will have to be built after the new year. But don't worry, I'll definitely enter as soon as the new year is over."

"Yes, I'll have to trouble President Sun then." Qin Lin nodded in understanding. There was not much time left until the new year. It was impossible for a construction company to start such a project at this time. After all, it was not a simple project like building a pontoon bridge.

Sun Ming and Qin Lin left the villa after promising.

Qin Lin called Chen Dabei over and asked him to pay more attention to the situation at the reservoir. He also returned to the villa and prepared the relevant documents and procedures before heading to the county.

When he got into the car, he called Chen Li first.

Although it was very easy for him to contract the land around the villa now, it would always be much less troublesome to ask Chen Li.

When he arrived at the county, he stopped the car and saw that Chen Li's secretary, Zhong Lei, was already waiting.

"President Qin, Deputy Chen is already waiting for you." Zhong Lei went forward when he saw Qin Lin.

Qin Lin said in surprise, "Deputy Chen? Chief Chen has been promoted?"

Zhong Lei smiled and explained, "Yes, because Youcheng County's 'All-Domain Tourism+' has been effective over the years, Deputy Chen is now the deputy county in charge of cultural tourism."

Chen Li had been promoted. His office had also moved upstairs.

"Boss Qin, I was waiting for you. The tea is ready." Chen Li was still as enthusiastic as ever. He led Qin Lin to his desk and poured him a cup of tea.

Chen Li did not make tea at the tea table. He had simply made a cup with a kettle on his desk. There had once been a public official who had led farmers to grow tea and become rich. He had placed a tea table in his office to make tea for the sake of his job, and then he had been reported by a reporter for making tea during working hours.

Although the public official was fine in the end, everyone in the office felt threatened by making tea in the office.

"Congratulations, Deputy Chen!" Qin Lin took the teacup and smiled.

Chen Li smiled and said, "Boss Qin, let's not do this. How many acres do you plan to contract this time? Give me the information and let Zhong Lei send it to the land department for review later."

"Thank you, Deputy Chen." Qin Lin nodded and handed over the contract information in his hand.

Chen Li took Qin Lin's information and looked at it. After a while, he said in surprise, "5,000 acres. Looks like Boss Qin has a big plan."

"I do have some plans." Qin Lin nodded. 5,000 acres was the size of a villa.

Naturally, such a large piece of land was not used to build a ranch. He was only preparing for the future. Be it the construction of a ranch or new projects in the future, he would definitely need the land.

Moreover, if the Quality 2 watermelon seed was successfully cultivated, it would definitely need to be planted. It was better to contract more at once.

Chen Li smiled and said, "Boss Qin, actually, the county has been waiting for you to expand the contract. After Qinglin Villa became popular, many people have their eyes on the lands around Qinglin Villa and want to contract them."

"However, the county blocked them. Sun Xian knows what those people are like. They will definitely mess around. Boss Qin, it's more reassuring to contract the whole land."

This was not nonsense. Indeed, many people were eyeing the land around Qinglin Villa.

Chapter 265

These people wanted a piece of the pie because of the popularity of Qinglin Villa. With the popularity of Qinglin Villa, they could earn money by doing something beside Qinglin Villa.

These people were a little smart, but it was obvious that they would not be able to do anything. When the time came, they would get involved with Qinglin Villa and even ruin the difficult situation.

The county was seeking development now and placed great importance on the county's rise to the city. They would not let anyone ruin their plan of 'domain tourism +1'.

Furthermore, in terms of scenic planning, the county really admired Qin Lin.

The fact that Qinglin Villa had developed to more than 3,000 guests a day in a short period of time was the foundation of this trust.

If there were geniuses in every industry, then this young Boss Qin was a genius in tourism design.

Qin Lin did not know about this, but he was very grateful for the county's support and trust.

Otherwise, if the land around Qinglin Villa was taken by someone else, they might really cause some trouble.

Chen Li handed Qin Lin's materials to Zhong Lei. After letting Zhong Lei handle them, he said to Qin Lin, "Boss Qin, it's good that you're here today. Actually, I wanted to contact you too. Come with me to a place at noon."

Qin Lin asked curiously, "Deputy Chen, where are we going?"

Chen Li explained, "Hasn't our Youcheng County Tourism Association been established long ago? It's just that there wasn't a place to work previously."

"Now that the base has been prepared, I'll inform the people in charge of the various scenic spots to come and acknowledge you. After the New Year, we'll hold a new year strategy meeting. Boss Qin, you still have the position of vice president."

Qin Lin had forgotten about this if he did not hear Chen Li mention it. He did not take it to heart.

However, there were still benefits to the tourist association. At the very least, they could unify the strategy alliance and clearly manage the system and development strategy to prevent a situation where a rat's shit ruined the entire pot.

Once something went wrong with any scenic spot, the people outside would only say what happened in Youcheng County. It must have affected everyone.

Furthermore, he seemed to have some rights after becoming a vice president. At the very least, he had some say in the management system and development strategy.

The tourism association's base was in an old building in Shuinan. It had been renovated and looked brand new, but this area…

It seemed that a few years ago, there were many shops with pink lights in this area. There were even ragged ladies standing at the door, making it easy for passing drivers to be distracted.

Fortunately, all such shops had been banned.

"Vice President Qin Lin!" Qin Lin followed Chen Li to the Tourist Association's base and realized that there was actually a special office for him here.

In this office, Qin Lin and Chen Li chatted a lot about tourism development before returning to the villa.

As soon as he arrived at the villa, he received good news from Li Kai.

The watermelon cultivated by the game seed had borne fruit.

This made him head to the original hall immediately and enter the backyard.

In the greenhouse, Li Kai was already squatting by a watermelon vine and observing. When he saw Qin Lin enter, he said, "Brother Qin, come and take a look. These fruit buds look very good."

Qin Lin went forward and squatted down. Indeed, he saw thumb-sized watermelons.

After the watermelon grew, there were dense seeds inside, and the seeds inside were all triples.

After these triples seeds were planted, because the source chromosome chain would be chaotic during the reduction process, they could no longer form normal germ cells. Therefore, the watermelons that grew could not form seeds.

In other words, the game seed cultivation was successful. He was just waiting for these watermelons to grow up.

Chapter 266

Another day passed.

Qin Lin came out of the bathroom early in the morning and saw Zhao Moqing admiring her face in front of the makeup mirror.

These days, her pretty face was much more delicate, and her skin was fairer.

That was the effect of eating a Quality 2 duck egg every day.

The longer one ate, the better the effect.

Women always cared most about their faces.

This visible effect made Zhao Moqing happy. When she saw Qin Lin come out, she could not wait to get up and hug his neck. She asked, "Hubby, do you think my face is fairer?"

There were actually standard answers to women's questions.

This was also the time to test a man's EQ.

Qin Lin hugged Zhao Moqing's waist with a smile. "Let me see. Eh, you're really much fairer. My wife is even more beautiful."

Even if she did not become fairer, he had to say so. Furthermore, Zhao Moqing's pretty face was really fairer.

"Right?" Zhao Moqing smiled in satisfaction.

Qin Lin smiled and said, "In the future, I'll get them to keep the eggs laid by the three big ducks for you."

"At least you have a conscience," Zhao Moqing said in satisfaction.

She had eaten a big duck egg every day these past few days and had already deeply experienced the effect of this duck egg.

Qin Lin said with a teasing expression, "There's also the effect of our nighttime activity."

"Why do you like to ruin the atmosphere so much?" Zhao Moqing was embarrassed. She reached out and touched his waist before saying, "By the way, today is the payday. It was a little late yesterday when we calculated the salary. When you arrive at the villa, remember to sign the salary list and send it to the bank first. Don't delay the payday."

"Yes, I can't delay it." Qin Lin smiled.

This matter could be settled in half an hour by calling Lin Shiwei (Chapter 105), the branch president.

The salary at the villa was originally given on the 15th. Later on, it was signed with the bank as a substitute salary. Due to the fact that the food company had recruited too many people in a short period of time when it was expanding, the employees filled in the information and delayed for a few days. The time for the salary to be given this month was changed to the 22nd.

The two of them went out for breakfast. Lin Fen was very enthusiastic this morning. She looked at the two of them and wanted to say something but hesitated.

Zhao Moqing saw Lin Fen's abnormality and asked immediately, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Unable to hide her anxiety, Lin Fen asked, "Moqing, how much is my salary this month?"

She had a salary at Qinglin Villa. After all, she was also an import registrar, even if her job was very easy and she spent most of her time walking Wang Cai.

It was not that her son and daughter-in-law had not given her money to spend.

However, the money her son and daughter-in-law paid for their filial piety was different from her own hard earned money.

The salary was her labor, proving that she was still useful.

After her husband passed away, her health was not good and she was a burden to her son. Even if her son could earn a lot of money, she did not want to be useless.

Today was the day of the villa's salary. Her daughter-in-law must know how much the employees were paid.

Zhao Moqing and Qin Lin looked at each other.

In the beginning, the two of them had asked Lin Fen to go to the villa to play with her and make her feel better. Things were relaxed, so it was equivalent to taking a walk at the villa.

Her purchase registration was calculated again by the accountant every time she paid the supplier. It was fine even if she did not register.

However, the two of them naturally wouldn't tell Lin Fen this fact. They even did all the acting, including the salary.

Zhao Moqing said with a smile, "Mom, your salary + commission + year-end bonus this month is 5,000 yuan."

The year-end bonus would not be issued until the end of the year. Looking at the company's benefits and the boss's conscience, the villa and Qinglin Food Company were very profitable. Therefore, as long as the employees were on full duty last month, they would be given a year-end bonus. Furthermore, it was a lot of money.

There was naturally no one who had not even worked for a month.

"Is it that much?" Lin Fen could not help but ask happily. Other than opening a fruit shop with her husband, this was the first time she had received so much salary. Then, she said worriedly, "Moqing, did you give too much? I did so little. The others will have objections."

She knew Youcheng County's salary very well. Everyone only earns 4,000 yuan usually, right?

She earned 5,000 yuan a day for doing so little work. How could money be so easy to earn?

Zhao Moqing immediately comforted her. "Mom, don't worry. Among the full-month employees, your salary is at the bottom of the villa. The others have more than 6,000 yuan. No one will have any objections."

These words shocked Lin Fen. "Is our villa's salary so high?"

Zhao Moqing continued, "The salary here at the villa is not considered high. The salary of the old employees who received their year-end bonus at the food company is higher."

The food company production line was the way base salary + item salary.

Material entry – grading – cleaning – trimming – hot ironing – pulping ingredients – heating and concentrating – bottling – sealing – sterilizing. Different processes had a special accounting for the wages.

This method was completely rewarding.

In the beginning, the old employees basically worked full-time last month. They spent 10 hours a day at the production line. Some of them chose to work overtime for a longer time and had a higher salary.

Zhao Moqing was in disbelief when she saw the salary of those old employees. That was not the salary that a small place like Youcheng County should have.

However, thinking about it, the cost of the ingredients for their secret recipe ketchup was only five yuan. The lowest price of the factory was 11 yuan, so the employees' divided salary was nothing.

Chapter 267

Qin Lin went to the warehouse. After transporting the things in the game to the villa, he went to his office and saw Zhao Moqing's salary list.

When he saw the salary of this month's employees, he was also surprised.

Compared to the other companies in Youcheng County, their salary was much higher.

Who could believe that one of the factory employees in Youcheng County had gotten 14,372 yuan?

Although this employee had received a year-end bonus and an outstanding employee reward to earn such a high salary, it was really too exaggerated in a small city with a per capita salary of 4,000 yuan.

Some of the other old employees were hardworking and worked overtime. Coupled with the year-end bonus, they had more than 10,000 yuan.

He had to think about whether he should pay these salaries. After all, many companies would not pay them at all. That was all money. It was possible to cut off a large portion of it with a black-hearted operation.

However, when he saw that the employee who got 14,372 yuan had worked overtime every day for an average of 14 hours and did not even rest for a day, he gave up on the idea.

This employee's family should be in trouble. Otherwise, no one would work so hard.

Then, Qin Lin smiled self-deprecatingly. He was already a lucky person chosen by the heavens, but he was still conflicted about whether he had given his employees too much salary. His vision was a little narrow.

While he earned money, he could also bring more people to earn big money. That would prove his ability.

On this point, there was a company in the country that had set an example for all companies.

Such a company would also be safer than those controlled by capital and focused on benefits. Those companies that focused on benefits, even the giants, were in danger of being discussed at any time.

The higher-ups were all keeping tabs. Otherwise, Boss Ma would not have fallen so easily.

Qin Lin thought it through and signed the salary form with a smile.

He already had a system and there were many places to earn money in the future. There was no need to completely focus on money. Why not lead more employees to earn more money?

He scanned the signed salary form into his computer and sent it to the bank. Then, he called Lin Shiwei.

Inside Youcheng County Business Branch.

Lin Shiwei had long arrived at his office. He was also busy at the end of the year. These few days were also the last time he reported to headquarters.

However, he could heave a sigh of relief this year. The performance mission had been exceeded. This was all thanks to the opportunity he had seized previously to leave the business of Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Food Company in the industry.

Otherwise, he would have to go to those businesses with the branch presidents at the end of the year.

His phone rang.

Lin Shiwei picked up the number and hurriedly picked it up with a smile. "President Qin, what can I do for you?"

Qin Lin's voice was also heard. "President Lin, we'll give you our salary list. Please settle it."

"Don't worry, President Qin. I'll arrange it for you immediately. Remember to come over and drink tea when you're free." Lin Shiwei's face was filled with flattery. After hanging up, he immediately operated the computer to look for the salary list of Qinglin Villa.

He did not dare to neglect President Qin.

This year, the other party had helped him exceed his business. Next year, those branches would definitely come to compete.

Lin Shiwei took out Qin Lin's salary list and was surprised to see the number of employees issued. There were almost 800 employees in Qinglin Villa (wine factory) + Qinglin Food Company.

This development was really too fast.

However, what shocked Lin Shiwei even more was the salary of those employees.

"Are you kidding me? It's so high?" Lin Shiwei subconsciously wiped his eyes, wondering if he had seen wrongly.

He scanned it carefully. The salary went from high to high. A production line operator had received more than 14,000 yuan this month.

There were many who earned more than 10,000 yuan.

Was this the salary of their company in Youcheng County, or those companies in Ming City or Zhou City?

However, on second thought, it seemed that no popular product company like Qinglin Ketchup would stay in a small county like Qinglin Villa.

No wonder the county thought so highly of Boss Qin and wanted to keep him.

This salary would probably make the county leaders unable to sit still if they saw it. Such a high salary was also a huge publicity point for Youcheng County.

If Youcheng County wanted to attract investors, they could directly tell the public that the salary of ordinary employees of Qinglin Food Company in Youcheng County exceeded 14,000 yuan.

Why was Qinglin Food Company able to give out such a high salary? The benefits were good. Seeing that they had chosen Youcheng County, it meant that Youcheng County's environment was really good.

Although this 14,000 yuan was exchanged for the year-end bonus + outstanding employees + super long overtime, he naturally would not be stupid enough to use it to promote himself.

"I'm afraid Sun Xian and the others didn't expect this, right?" Lin Shiwei thought about the expressions of those leaders when he saw the salary list.

Thinking about this, Lin Shiwei dealt with it first. President Qin had already called. If he could get this done quickly, he would not delay it. With a good impression, he would be able to compete with those branch presidents next year.

After settling the matter of the substitute salary at Qinglin Villa, he printed a salary form and headed to the county, planning to report this matter to Sun Xian.

Although the county was not in the same system as him, the county also had a fiscal bureau. The bank was also closely related to the other party. This contact was necessary.

In the county, Sun Xian was discussing the food street with Chen Li. With the current number of tourists in Qinglin Villa, the establishment of their food street was inevitable.

Chapter 268

However, they were also very cautious about this matter. This was because many of Youcheng County's specialty snacks were very ordinary now. They were purely selling dog meat.

Therefore, it could not be worth it to create a gimmick and ruin the signboard. If the food street was built, it would be slapping itself in the face.

Over the past few days, Chen Li had also brought Zhong Lei around the entire Youcheng County and tasted all kinds of snacks and delicacies. He realized that the shops that occupied good spots were not as good as those in the alleys.

For example, the snack shop in Shui Nan where Boss Qin found the dipping sauce, and the meat pie beside Seventh High School. These shops were not big, but they were all old brands.

Such was the target of their first inspection.

They were a little surprised to see Lin Shiwei.

Chen Li asked directly, "President Lin, why are you free to come?"

Lin Shiwei smiled and said, "I'm sending a salary form to the county. It's from Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Food Company."

"Oh!" Sun Xian was interested.

Needless to say, Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Food Company were very profitable. The county's corporate guidance fund, Qinglin Food Company, after deducting taxes, various expenses, and the reserved cost materials, could be repaid quickly after the New Year.

With Qinglin Villa's current daily clientele, the support funds for projects like rafting, bridal chamber, and restaurant could be repaid quickly.

Therefore, they were also very curious about the salaries of Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Food Company. After all, other than increasing their taxes, the main purpose of the development of the county's businesses was to increase the income of the people.

The county's requirements were not high either. This year, the average salary of the Youcheng County factory had exceeded 4,000 yuan. They would be satisfied if Qinglin Food Company could exceed this level by 1,500-2,000 yuan.

There was also Qinglin Villa. The average salary of domestic tourism practitioners was 4,300 yuan. It would be fine as long as the salary of the villa's employees could reach this line.

This also greatly increased the income of more than 800 families.

Sun Xian took the salary list and stood up abruptly when he saw the salary on it. He said in surprise, "President Lin, is this salary real?"

Chen Li was puzzled by Sun Xian's reaction. He reached out to take the salary list and looked at it. He said in disbelief, "It's so high? The factory has more than 10,000 full-month workers. The minimum full-month worker at the villa is 5,000 yuan. This is the salary of a registrar called Lin Fen."

If it weren't for the fact that Lin Fen's salary is too ugly, this villa would have basically exceeded 6,500 yuan last month."

A waiter from Youcheng County could get 6,500 yuan?

No one would believe this, right? Those famous 5A scenic spots in the country might not necessarily have such a high salary.

There were also the employees of the factory. Most of them were more than 10,000 years old. No factory in Youcheng County had such a high salary.

They suddenly felt too happy to be Boss Qin's employees.

"Boss Qin is really generous." Chen Li couldn't help but exclaim.

Sun Xian also sighed. "Yes, these people are very lucky to have such bosses. I also hope that more and more people will be as lucky as them next year. This proves that we have a unique taste."

…

The atmosphere at Qinglin Villa was naturally in a festive mood today.

Anyone would be happy on the day of pay.

Furthermore, the meaning of this month's salary was extraordinary. According to the lunar calendar, it was the last salary of the old year. According to the new calendar, it was the first salary of the new year.

The key was that there was still a year-end bonus this month. Although they did not know how much it was, they were still happy.

For the entire day, the employees of the villa were in an excited state of anticipation.

It was almost noon.

Gao Yaoyao brought an older waiter into her office and took out a box of brochures. "Sister Liang, help me carry these fire brochures to the canteen and distribute them to everyone at noon."

The fire inspection was the most important thing to apply for scenic area 4A, so the villa naturally had to be prepared early.

"Okay." Sister Liang nodded and walked out with Gao Yaoyao carrying the box. "Manager Yaoyao, I heard that there's still 1,000 yuan left for the annual bonus this time?"

Gao Yaoyao nodded. "It's true. The announcement on the villa's app has already been released. There's also last month's full-time salary."

When Sister Liang received a confirmed answer, she said excitedly, "Then doesn't my basic salary of 4,000 + year-end bonus of 1,000 yuan mean a salary of 5,000 yuan? This is 2,000 yuan more than my original salary."

She was originally a waiter at a music restaurant in the county. Her salary was only about 3,000 yuan. Previously, she had resigned because she had given birth. Later on, she heard that Qinglin Villa's employees were treated well before applying for the job.

Gao Yaoyao smiled and said, "We still have a commission. This month, the villa organized a few activities. The turnover is very high, and our service department's commission is not low."

"How much is there?" Sister Liang asked curiously, "Is there a 500 yuan commission?"

She knew about the commission. Previously, when she was a waiter at the music restaurant, there was a commission for customers to order drinks. It was more than 100 yuan a month.

500 yuan?

Gao Yaoyao shook her head when she heard this. It was definitely more than 500 yuan.

In the beginning, when the villa's turnover was 150,000 yuan, she had a commission of 40 yuan a day. Now that the villa's turnover was so high, although there were more employees, her commission must be more than 40 yuan a day, right?

Furthermore, she had an additional subsidy for the portrait rights to film videos.

Gao Yaoyao was about to explain when their phones rang at the same time. Gao Yaoyao thought of something and immediately took out her phone to check. It was a salary notification.

10,082 yuan.

Gao Yaoyao couldn't help but look excited when she saw this salary.

Was this more than 10,000 yuan a month?

It was definitely something she did not dare to think about before.

She could not help but feel glad that Sister Moqing and the boss had taken over the villa. Otherwise, she would not know where to serve the dishes now.

Sister Liang, who was beside her, exclaimed, "Manager Yaoyao, my salary is 7,348 yuan. Is the villa drawing so high?"

She couldn't believe it. This was far beyond her expectations.

Sister Liang and Gao Yaoyao moved the fire control manual to the canteen and couldn't help but find an empty place to call their husband. "Hubby, I've received my salary."

Laughter came from the other end. "Honey, I've gotten paid too. What a coincidence. By the way, how much did you get?"

Sister Liang naturally did not hide it and said happily, "Hubby, I earned 7,348 yuan. Our villa's salary is actually so high. Hubby, you were promoted to a KTV manager last month. How much was your salary this time?"

"Uh…" There was silence on the other end of the line. After a while, he said, "Honey, um, are they still hiring waiters at Qinglin Villa?"

It was not only Sister Liang. As the salary was distributed, almost all the employees could not believe it. When they received the salary, the festive atmosphere in the villa was extremely high. Even the tourists could feel the enthusiasm of the villa's staff.

In the office.

While the employees were celebrating, Qin Lin suddenly looked at the game on the screen in his mind in surprise. This was because he had not controlled the game character when a plot was suddenly triggered.

Besides, the plot this time was different from the previous one. It was a sacrificial plot.

In different versions of Ranches Story, there were different sacrificial plots. There were cow sacrifices, horse sacrifices, chicken sacrifices, harvest sacrifices, spring sacrifices, and so on…

In some versions, different sacrifices could yield different special items.

This time it was Zach who appeared:

[To celebrate the economic development of Ore Town, the annual 'Musical Festival' is about to begin. We're going to celebrate the harvest with music. The people in the town are busy contributing and providing food for the 'Musical Festival'. You'll get the mysterious 'Musical Festival' scroll!]

Chapter 269

Music festivals were considered relatively unimportant in Ranches Story because players had less participation.

When Qin Lin played in Ore Town, he would go to the church to listen to music during the music festival and watch the plot.

Among the other versions, only the Twin Village version was more interesting. Players could still participate in the performance.

But what was this 'Musical Ceremony' scroll?

He did not remember this item in the old version in the past. Or had he just gone through the plot and did not receive this special item?

It was not easy to trigger a plot. No matter what it was, he had to take it down first.

After Qin Lin saw Zach's notification, he immediately controlled the game character to leave the ranch and head to Ore Town.

The scene in Ore Town was clearly different this time. Colorful lights had been hung on the streets for the music festival. Many tables had been placed in the church. They were filled with food and surrounded by NPCs.

At the church door, the mayor was dressed in a suit.

He controlled the game character to step forward and click. A conversation appeared:

[Are you going to provide food for the town's music season? If you provide enough food, you can get the mysterious music sacrificial scroll.]

What else could Qin Lin say? He controlled the game character to return to the ranch and took out the duck eggs, wild fish, vegetables, and Xiangshui Tribute Rice he had stored previously. Then, he controlled the game character to return to Ore Town and handed these things to the mayor.

[Thank you very much for your contribution to the music festival. Come to the music festival tonight. When the time comes, those who have contributed to the music festival will be given the music festival scroll as a gift.]

This would have to wait for the game night again.

Fortunately, the passage of time in the game was different. Night quickly arrived in the game.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to enter the town church again. As expected, there was a plot inside. NPC characters went up one after another to play instruments.

The music played happily too.

When the plot screen passed, the mayor appeared in front of the game character.

[Because of your contribution to the music festival. This is your gift!]

[Congratulations on obtaining the Musical Ceremony Scroll!]

Qin Lin received a notification and controlled his game character to return to the ranch. After locking the office door, he entered the game.

He saw the Musical Ceremony scroll. There seemed to be some kind of pattern drawn on it.

When he focused, the note appeared:

[Musical Ceremony Scroll: Mysterious Item!]

[This is a special sacrificial scroll from Ore Town. It has been blessed by the goddess to hold a music festival for your employees. You can obtain special props at random.]

[Requirements: 1. Hold a music festival for the employees. 2. There must be enough attention to the music festival. 3. There must be at least 10 music programs. 4. The employees' enthusiasm must be high enough.]

When Qin Lin saw this notification, he wanted to complain.

Was this a serial plot mission?

It seemed like this Musical Ceremony Scroll was not the final gift. After satisfying the music sacrifice request, the random special item obtained by the scroll was the gift.

But where the hell did his ranch have employees?

Even if he hired dwarfs to work in the future and pulled them to the music festival, there would only be seven dwarfs, right?

There aren't even 10 for each dwarf to perform a music program.

Most importantly, how could he judge the attention? He could even invite the residents of the town?

Qin Lin exited the game and tried to control his game character to click on the Musical Ceremony Scroll. He received another message:

[Current usage requirements are not met!]

Qin Lin frowned. He controlled his game character to talk to the residents of the town one by one, but he did not trigger any conversation about the music festival scroll.

He tried for a long time, but nothing happened.

It felt like a dead end.

It was as if the things he had handed to the mayor had gone down the drain. He had obtained a scroll that he could not use. Or perhaps he had missed something crucial.

As he was thinking, he heard a knock on his office door. He could only snap out of the game and open the door.

Zhou Chengjun, who was wearing a neat suit and a tie, walked in. His hair was still meticulously styled.

"Why are you here at the villa today?" Qin Lin stood up and invited the other party to sit at the tea table.

Regarding the operation of Youcheng County Sauce, he had never interfered or asked about it. Firstly, he had promised Zhou Chengjun that the management rights would belong to him. Secondly, he was extremely busy with his villa and Qinglin Ketchup.

Therefore, he only listened to Zhou Chengjun come to the villa regularly to report the situation to him.

The quality of Youcheng County Sauce was not bad. It had already been produced and products had already entered the villa's sales center to be sold. They had also entered the RT-Mart.

Even under Deng Guang's recommendation, Cheng He, the agent of Qinglin Ketchup, also tried to sell Youcheng County Sauce.

Based on the current situation, the sales of Youcheng County Sauce were not bad. The data from Cheng He was still passable. Naturally, it was far inferior to Qinglin Ketchup.

Furthermore, the sauce market was still controlled by Lao Gan Ma's sauce.

Most importantly, although he had invested in the other party, the management rights had been given to Zhou Chengjun. That meant that they were not from the same company. He could not use the villa's channels to promote Youcheng County Sauce as he did with Qinglin Ketchup.

Zhou Chengjun sat down and said with a smile, "President Qin, Youcheng County Sauce will be having a year-end banquet in two days. You're a major shareholder, so I invited you to attend it together."

The year-end banquet was originally a custom in the Min Nan region, but as society developed, it had now evolved into a gathering of countless companies to thank their employees at the end of the year.

Chapter 270

Naturally, according to the size of the company, the scale of this banquet was also different. Some small companies with more than ten people naturally booked a table in restaurants and hotels and treated their employees to a good meal.

Some larger companies would hold grand banquets and celebrations. After a sumptuous dinner, there would be a big banquet and various programs to admire. The famous Big Boss Ma liked to sing and perform at the banquet.

Every year, there were also many solo songs by Boss Ma at the year-end banquet. It could be seen that there was applause all around. Boss Ma was very intoxicated by the singing.

For example, Zhou Chengjun's Youcheng County Sauce was a new company that had just received an investment. It was naturally impossible for him to do this. The year-end banquet was only held in a restaurant.

"I'll take a look when the time comes. I'll go visit when I'm free. I've been busy recently." Qin Lin did not agree or reject him.

It really depended on whether he had time when the time came. It was fine if he had time to go over as a major shareholder. If he really did not have time, he could not go.

"I see." Zhou Chengjun nodded.

He also knew that the villa would be very busy at the end of the year. President Qin might not be free.

Of course, it did not matter if President Qin went or not. What was important was that his invitation had to be delivered. This was courtesy.

He was still very grateful to President Qin. After all, he knew very well that even if he had his grandfather's secret recipe, he would definitely not be able to get any investment from anyone else.

The key was that President Qin really had no intention of interfering when he gave him the management rights. As his grandfather had said, this trust could no longer be described as gratitude.

Zhou Chengjun did not stay long.

However, when it came to the year-end banquet, Qin Lin remembered that he was also a boss. There were many employees in the villa and food company. It seemed like he had to hold a year-end banquet too.

However, what to do with this banquet was a problem.

With so many people, it should be considered a large-scale operation.

If the banquet was too simple, it would be a joke. It was better not to hold it.

At the thought of this, he went out to Zhao Moqing's office, planning to talk to her. When he saw Zhao Moqing, she was looking at something seriously on the computer. He asked, "What are you looking at? Why are you so serious?"

"I'm watching a video," Zhao Moqing said as she stood up from her seat and let Qin Lin sit down.

Qin Lin smiled and hugged her waist, letting her sit on his lap.

"Hmph!" Zhao Moqing snorted.

She knew this would happen, so she took the initiative to give up her seat.

Qin Lin reached out his hand to Zhao Moqing's thigh and said, "By the way, let me tell you something. What should we do about our villa and factory's year-end banquet?"

Zhao Moqing pointed at the computer and said, "I saw my brother's KTV holding a year-end banquet at noon. I was watching the relevant videos. Our villa and factory have nearly 800 people in total. It's already a large-scale event in a small place like Youcheng County. I'm wondering if we should just have a meal or hold a party like those big companies."

"Why don't we hold a party?" Qin Lin looked at the video playing on the computer. It was a company's year-end banquet. A few beautiful girls were dancing in short skirts, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Zhao Moqing nodded and said, "But there are nearly 800 people. Where will the venue be? With so many people, I'm afraid we'll need the county hall."

The county hall was the largest place in the county. It was also a government-style hall. Usually, it was only used if the county had some major event or official matter. He wondered if he could borrow it.

"I'll call the county and ask," Qin Lin said as he took out his phone and found Chen Li's number.

At this moment…

Chen Li was also reviewing the information in his office with Zhong Lei. It was all about the various snack restaurants in the county.

The food street was his first project after he was promoted to deputy. He really did not want to make any mistakes. His attention was all on this.

"The quantity and quality are not enough." Chen Li frowned after reading the information. A moment later, he said to Zhong Lei, "Xiao Zhong, can we not limit our sights to the county city? There are also many snack bars in the towns below. The total number is much more than in the county city."

Zhong Lei understood and said, "Deputy Chen, I'll go to the various towns personally tomorrow. There will definitely be results before the holidays."

"Good." Chen Li nodded.

The phone rang.

Seeing that it was Qin Lin's number, Chen Li picked up without hesitation. "Boss Qin, I guess something must have happened."

Qin Lin's voice also sounded. "Deputy Chen, I want to ask if I can borrow the county hall in the county? We plan to hold a party during the year-end banquet. Only the county hall can accommodate more than 800 people."

"Boss Qin, are you holding a party? I can lend you the county hall." Chen Li stood up in surprise.

A party with 800 people could be very lively. If they invited some more people, it could completely exceed 1,000 people.

No company in the county had ever held such a party. This was also a joyous matter worth promoting in the county.

After agreeing to Qin Lin, Chen Li reported this matter to Sun Xian.

Sun Xian said decisively, "Let the county's art troupe help Boss Qin perform and make it more lively. Then, let the county television station interview and record it. When the time comes, we'll upload it online and let people see the glory of our Youcheng County Corporation.

Chapter 271

"Yes, I'll arrange it." Chen Li nodded.

This could tell the outside world that Youcheng County could also produce such a company. If they wanted to invest, they could consider Youcheng County.

In a small county, anything that could be promoted had to be used.

In Qinglin Villa.

When Qin Lin received Chen Li's answer, he immediately told Zhao Moqing.

"The county has agreed to let us use the county hall to hold the year-end banquet," Zhao Moqing said in surprise. "If we really have to hold it, I'll inform the employees. We can also let them sign up for the banquet."

"Yes!" Qin Lin nodded. He had already told Chen Li about borrowing the county hall, so he had to hold a banquet now.

Zhao Moqing also opened the management WeChat group of the villa and the food company and sent the message. "The villa and the food company's year-end banquet are going to be held together. There will also be a joint party at the county hall. Manager, please inform your employees first. Those who are interested can sign up for the performance. There will be a reward."

This was naturally just a simple notice.

The application management program would specially send a message and also post an announcement at the villa and food company.

In an instant, the management of the villa and factory saw this message.

Chen Dabei was checking the surveillance video in the surveillance room. He took out his phone and saw the reward for the year-end banquet performance. He suddenly sang, "I can't help but complain when I lose my will. I can't help but feel cold when I'm down and out… Only by fighting hard can I win…"

This made the security guard in the surveillance room look at him.

Chen Dabei asked the security guards, "How is it? How is my singing?"

The security guards in the surveillance room looked at each other. Didn't Supervisor Chen know?

Gao Yaoyao and Sister Liang were taking out the fire control manual in the canteen and putting it on the table. They also saw the message. "Is the year-end banquet going to be held? There's also a performance."

Sister Liang looked over curiously. When she saw the message, she immediately asked, "Manager Yaoyao, I know how to sing. I can sign up. I'm always hogging the microphone in KTVs."

She clearly felt a sense of belonging to the villa and was very motivated. After all, the salary was so high.

If she was more proactive in such an event, it would definitely be easier to apply for a job in the future.

In Qinglin Food Company.

Deng Guang also saw the message in the WeChat group.

This was also his first time at this banquet, but when he thought about how quickly the company was developing, these would be indispensable in the future.

Furthermore, the lady boss had already sent this message, so he definitely had to do it. The factory had to produce some programs that could not be worse than the villa.

He called two young girls directly.

These were two new office clerks recruited by the food company. They had graduated from university.

"President Deng, what can I do for you?" one of the girls asked.

"Xiao Li, go to a few factories and tell everyone that there's a year-end banquet this year. Every production line will produce a program. The performers can rehearse directly. The factory will give them subsidies. When the time comes, there will be other rewards if they win the year-end banquet performance." Deng Guang instructed the two clerks directly.

Clearly, he would not fight an unprepared battle. He had to do what the higher-ups had instructed him to do beautifully.

"Okay, President Deng," Xiao Li replied immediately. As office clerks, they were also good at organizing such things.

However, in the villa's office.

After Zhao Moqing sent the message to the group, Qin Lin looked at the screen in his mind in shock. He had received a system notification.

[Requirements for the musical ceremony are met by 1/4!]

Chapter 272

Qin Lin controlled his game character to study the music scroll for a long time without any reaction. This notification made him look incredulous.

He suddenly satisfied a request?

What had he done?

It seemed that Zhao Moqing had sent a message to the management WeChat group.

Did it have anything to do with this?

Was this the correct use of the Musical Ceremony Scroll? Could it be held in reality as well?

Thinking about it carefully, the music festival in Ranches Story was also a celebration of the town's economic development. The year-end banquet was also a celebration.

But now, which one of the 4 requirements was satisfied?

Enough attention was definitely not.

Even if the entire villa and food company knew, there were only nearly 800 people. It was definitely not enough attention.

There had to be at least ten music programs, which was even less true. The party hadn't even been held yet, let alone music programs.

It shouldn't be the case if the employees were enthusiastic enough. Zhao Moqing had just spread the news, so not many employees might know, let alone be enthusiastic enough.

Then there was only the requirement of holding a music festival for the employees.

After Zhao Moqing sent the message, it was equivalent to announcing that she had begun to prepare for the banquet, which was tacitly agreed by the system.

He wondered if he would fail to meet this request again if he announced that he would not do it now.

Naturally, he would not do such boring things.

However, if the banquet could be used as a music festival, he had to think of a way to satisfy the other three conditions.

First, there were 10 music programs.

He directly sent another message in the management WeChat group. "Management should try to organize employees to sign up for programs. It's best to guarantee 10 music programs. If you perform and win the top three, you can also receive a 3,000 yuan red packet reward."

This information was considered a mission. No matter how insensible those management preparations were, they would ensure that there were 10 music programs.

No one was stupid enough to criticize their boss.

As for 3,000 yuan, it was to completely mobilize the enthusiasm of a portion of the talented employees. Presumably, some talented employees would sign up for 3,000 yuan.

As expected, not long after Qin Lin sent this message, in the general manager's office of the food company, Deng Guang took out his phone and called the clerk, Xiao Li. He instructed, "Xiao Li, try to organize a few more music programs and get those employees who can sing to sign up actively. Tell them that there's a chance to win 3,000 yuan as a red packet reward."

In the villa.

When Gao Yaoyao saw this news, she also said to Sister Liang, "Sister Liang, you know how to sing, right? I'll help you sign up. Go and ask anyone else who sings well to sign up with me. Tell them that there's a chance to win 3,000 yuan."

"Okay." Sister Liang's eyes lit up when she heard the 3,000 yuan reward. She must have a share of this reward.

In the office, Qin Lin put down his phone after sending a message to the WeChat group.

That way, the requirements of at least ten music programs could be guaranteed.

That left the music festival with enough attention and the employees with enough enthusiasm.

If the employees were enthusiastic enough, it would be simple. There was a lucky draw segment at the party. They would also buy some Huawei phones and electric cars as prizes. There was also a red packet.

By the way, Cheng He, Lin Feng, Wang Wei, and the other collaborators could also be invited. When they were invited to other companies to participate in the banquet, they usually had to bring a few red packets as gifts for the lucky draw.

This way, there would be more red packets.

He did not believe that the employees would not be enthusiastic enough.

It was just that inviting these people needed to confirm the time of the year-end banquet.

Therefore, Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing discussed the time of the year-end banquet.

There was no fixed time for the tail banquet of the company companies. It depended on the companies' own arrangements.

Finally, the time was set for the night of the 28th day of the lunar calendar.

Because the Youcheng County scenic area was unified on the 29th, 30th, and first day of the new year, it officially opened on the second day of the new year.

This was also the holiday period for most scenic spots.

As for the factory, the holidays would last a little longer, but it would also be after the New Year. The holidays would begin on the 29th of the lunar calendar.

After setting the time, Qin Lin sent a WeChat message to Cheng He, Lin Feng, and the others, inviting them to their year-end banquet on the 28th.

On the other side…

When Lin Feng saw Qin Lin's invitation message, he picked up his phone almost immediately and replied, "It's my honor to be invited by President Qin. I'll definitely arrive on the night of the 28th."

How could he hesitate at the God of Wealth's invitation?

However, Lin Feng was vexed after replying. He had to bring a red packet to attend the year-end banquet at Qinglin Villa.

However, how many red packets he had to bring was a problem. It was naturally best if he brought more than the others. That meant that he had given President Qin the most face. President Qin would remember him.

He was afraid that he would bring the least in the end. That would be awkward and President Qin would definitely remember it. If he did not give him face, he might not be able to buy more goods next year.

This was like a bidding war. He did not know anyone else's background at all.

It would be best if he could take the lead among the suppliers under such circumstances. Otherwise, he could also be in the middle. He could not be last.

However, it was also heartbreaking to bring too many red packets. They were not a big company.

Not only Lin Feng, but the other suppliers also replied immediately after receiving Qin Lin's message. Then, they faced the same problem as Lin Feng.

Business was difficult!

Qin Lin did not know this, let alone that these people could think so wildly.

What he was thinking now was that there were enough gifts and red packets to mobilize the enthusiasm of his employees. Then, what was left was enough attention.

Chapter 273

What could he do to gain attention? Ask the television station to broadcast it live? But it was impossible for a big television station to broadcast his year-end banquet.

Let Youcheng County TV Station do it?

Forget it. Youcheng County TV Station's viewership might not even be as high as the villa's live broadcast.

At the thought of this, Qin Lin was stunned.

Then why don't his villa broadcast it live?

The official account of the villa had so many fans. There should be many people watching the live broadcast of the year-end banquet.

It seemed like the villa had never done a live broadcast before. They could just get a premiere this time.

In order to ensure that more people paid attention, he sent some Qinglin Medicine Wine and sandalwood incense from the top left corner. Under the temptation of this material, it would definitely attract many people to watch the live broadcast. Why would he be afraid of not having enough attention?

As Qin Lin thought about it, he instructed Zhao Moqing, "Moqing, take a video and post it on the official website. Tell them that our year-end banquet is live-streaming. When the time comes, we'll give fans benefits. We'll give 50 sets of 30ml medicinal wine for hemorrhoids and 200 sets of 10g sandalwood incense for sleep."

Zhao Moqing nodded. "Okay, I'll get the photographer and Yaoyao to take a video later."

No matter what company's official account it was, they had to often post quality videos to maintain its popularity. Over the past two days, many companies had also posted videos related to the year-end banquet.

After all, at this time, the year-end banquet was also one of the things that the public paid attention to. It was very popular.

In the evening, Zhao Moqing posted the video on the official account. Many fans saw the video.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Yaoyao. I've met everyone again. Let me tell you a piece of good news. Our villa has a live broadcast of the year-end banquet on the night of the 28th. When the time comes, there's a free lucky bag in the live broadcast room. There's medicinal wine for hemorrhoids and sandalwood incense to help you sleep."

When they saw the first half of the video, the fans were not too interested. After all, it was a live broadcast of a scenic area's year-end banquet, not a gala.

However, when they saw that the lucky bag could receive medicinal wine for hemorrhoids and sandalwood to help them sleep for free, they were immediately interested. No exciting party could stop them from watching Qinglin Villa's live broadcast.

In a short period of time, the video comments section was abnormally lively.

"Haha, I almost missed important information because I didn't watch the video."

"What's the meaning of a live broadcast of the year-end banquet… Oh wait, I'm so interested."

"I'm not interested in the fortune bag at all. I just want to watch the live broadcast of Qinglin Villa."

"…"

In the office, Qin Lin looked at the video Zhao Moqing had uploaded and clicked on Dou+ to become a hot topic. He scrolled to the right and paid 20,000 yuan.

In a moment, the likes and comments of the video refreshed at an unbelievable speed. The video also became popular.

With the temptation of medicinal wine and incense, there would definitely be a lot of people in the live-stream. Then, there shouldn't be a problem with the requirement for attention.

As Qin Lin was thinking, a notification appeared in his mind.

[Music sacrifice requirements 2/4.]

"?" Qin Lin suddenly did not react when he received the notification. Has the attention requirement been met?

Why was this so unexpected? He thought he would have to wait until the banquet.

This was like playing a game. When he was in front of the boss, he had already planned how much time to deal with the other party. In the end, he killed the boss in seconds. There was no sense of accomplishment now.

In that case, there were only two requests left: 10 music programs and enough enthusiasm from the employees. And these two requests should not be a problem if they had to wait for the tail banquet to start.

For some reason, Qin Lin suddenly felt like he was playing a real-life simulation game.

As the news of the year-end banquet spread, the employees of the villa and food company began to discuss it enthusiastically. Many young employees with talent were interested.

After all, if they showed off at the year-end banquet, they might have priority in choosing a partner. Be it the food company or the villa, there were quite a number of single people.

The next day.

Zhao Moqing called Gao Yaoyuan and Xiao Li, the clerk from the food company, to her office and instructed, "The two of you are in charge of organizing the year-end banquet. I've already contacted the three hotels in the county. Look for Chen Dabei and bring people over to borrow their extra seats and set up the scene."

The party was held in the county hall, but there were not enough tables for 800 people. They had to think of a way for themselves.

Therefore, Zhao Moqing contacted three big hotels in the county. They all had many spare tables that they could borrow first.

When these three hotels received the news that Zhao Moqing had borrowed seats, they naturally agreed immediately.

After all, the hotel was also relying on Qinglin Villa for a living now. Because of the tourists in Qinglin Villa, the hotel's business was much better than before.

"Okay, Sister Moqing." Gao Yaoyao nodded and left the office with Xiao Li, who had come from the food company. Then, she went to look for Chen Dabei and brought people to move the seats.

Time passed.

In the following time, other than setting up the venue in the hall, Gao Yaoyao and Xiao Li, the staff of the food company, also organized the employees who signed up for the performance to be brought to rehearsal.

Although it was the first time they were holding a year-end banquet of this scale, they were all in high spirits and were very serious.

The county city gradually began to have the taste of the new year. Many shops began to be decorated. As the new year approached, the prices of various things naturally increased rapidly in just a few days.

Even the prices of taxis and Grab services had soared.

Chapter 274

Finally…

On the 28th of the lunar calendar, at 3 p.m., the villa and food company had already begun to organize their employees to clean up. Then, they organized them into batches and headed to the county hall.

Master Lin had long brought the restaurant chef and the employees of the food company's canteen to a small restaurant beside the county hall.

The county hall did not have a kitchen, so he could only rent the restaurant beside the county hall. When the time came, he would deliver the food to the county hall.

The county hall was beside the square in the center of Youcheng County. This location was the most crowded.

Especially on the 28th, those who were working outside had returned. It was even more lively here.

But soon, everyone was attracted by the increasing number of people gathered in the county hall.

What was the concept of nearly 800 people? They were densely packed. It was difficult not to attract attention. Furthermore, someone had discovered Youcheng County TV Station's car.

Something had clearly happened here. Everyone from Youcheng County TV Station had come to record.

More and more people were attracted and approached curiously.

"It should be Qinglin Villa holding a year-end banquet. The person organizing it seems to be Gao Yaoyao."

"I also saw a man in a Qinglin Villa uniform."

"Are there so many people in Qinglin Villa?"

"The boss of Qinglin Villa also has Qinglin Ketchup. That ketchup is very popular. I bought some at home. It tastes really good."

"There are too many people, aren't there? Besides, everyone from Youcheng County TV is here."

"I think I also saw someone from the art troupe."

It had to be admitted that a company with nearly 800 employees was quite rare in Youcheng County.

Previously, everyone's attention was on Qinglin Villa. Although they knew that Qinglin Ketchup was very popular, they did not pay much attention to it. However, from the looks of it, Qinglin Ketchup could not be underestimated.

The employees of Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Food Company were also very excited at this moment. They gathered together and chatted about what delicious food there would be at the banquet tonight.

It was the first time so many colleagues had gathered together. All the employees felt a sense of pride. When they chatted about their salaries, they were all smiles.

Especially the old employees of the factory. Almost everyone had received more than 10,000 yuan this month. This was the highest salary they had ever received in Youcheng County. They had not even dared to think about it in the past.

While the others looked envious, they also looked forward to it because they could get so much salary in the future.

The happiest people were the old masters of the wine factory like Master Ma. Now that the wine factory had been reborn, they liked such liveliness.

At the entrance of the county hall, Gao Yaoyao had already taken a loudspeaker and shouted at the employees present, "Everyone, you can line up and enter the county hall in an orderly manner now. Remember to look at the logo. The villa and the food company have different areas."

Following Gao Yaoyao's arrangements, the people from Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Food Company lined up to enter the hall.

There were densely packed chairs inside. A tablecloth had been laid out and bowls and chopsticks placed. At the front was a very big stage. The decorations were very lively and festive. It could be seen that Gao Yaoyao and the others were very serious.

At the top of the stage, another screen played the video.

Everyone who entered was attracted by the video. On the video was the lucky draw list for tonight.

"So many lucky draw prizes?" an employee couldn't help but exclaim.

"Emma's electric AIMA. It's more than 3,000 yuan a car. There's 30 to be won?"

"That's a Huawei HUAWEI Mate 40 RS. It's more than 10,000 yuan. There are actually 10 of them."

"There's also a red packet. Five for 2,500 yuan, 10 for 1,500 yuan, and 20 for 500 yuan."

"Then the bag is…"

All the employees looked excited when they saw the lucky draw gift on the video. To them, the prize was definitely very generous.

Furthermore, there were many spots. The chances of winning seemed to be very high.

Everyone stared at the Huawei phone playing on the screen.

These 10 grand prizes were too attractive. Before the lots were drawn, everyone thought they could win.

For a moment, under the temptation of the prize, the enthusiasm of all the employees was raised to the highest point. They were all filled with anticipation, and the atmosphere in the entire hall was extremely dense.

Backstage.

At this moment, Qin Lin also received a system notification, which made him smile.

[Music sacrifice requirement met 3/4.]

Now, he was only short of the last requirement of at least ten music programs. He could use the scroll and randomly obtain a special prop.

And that was a done deal.

In the new version of Ranches Story, there were many special paths. For example, special soil, fertilizers that could increase the growth speed of crops, Kappa Jade, Goddess Jade, Philosopher's Stone, Moon Tears Grass, and so on were all special props.

Furthermore, these special props had some magical functions.

He was now curious about what special item he would randomly obtain after using the Musical Ceremony Scroll.

Chapter 275

There were many special props in the new version of Ranches Story. As for which one he would get, he would only know if he satisfied the last requirement of the Musical Ceremony Scroll.

Just as he regained his senses, Chen Li walked in. "Boss Qin, congratulations. The atmosphere of today's year-end banquet is very high. No company in Youcheng County has organized a year-end banquet of this scale."

Qin Lin greeted him with a smile. "Welcome, Deputy Chen. Let's have a drink together later."

Chen Li waved his hand. "Boss Qin, I'm just delivering a gift for the county. I'm going back to the county soon. I still have to work overtime tonight."

Behind him, Zhong Lei also walked forward with two certificates wrapped in red cloth and handed them to Qin Lin.

Qin Lin took the certificate in confusion. It was actually a certificate of excellence from Youcheng County. One was for Qinglin Food Company, and the other was for Qinglin Villa.

This was clearly a company that the county had awarded to Youcheng County for its contributions. Under normal circumstances, it would not deliver itself to their door at night.

However, flowers and sedan chairs carried people up. Sometimes, special situations require special treatment.

Today, Qinglin Villa's year-end banquet was lively, so they sent it over.

After sending the certificate, Chen Li did not stay any longer. In today's society, even if he was upright, he was afraid of making groundless accusations.

It might really be difficult for him to refuse a drink. Tomorrow, it might be spread online. Then, there would be news of him eating fish and meat at someone else's company's banquet. There might be private problems.

Sometimes, justice could not compare to a twisted mouth.

Some people said that the socio-economic development had been rapid over the past 20 years, but moral values were slowly regressing.

Although this statement was alarmist, some things indeed made it seem very helpless.

As soon as Chen Li left, Deng Guang led three people in.

He knew one of them. It was Cheng He, the agent for Qinglin Ketchup.

"President Qin, congratulations." Cheng He shook Qin Lin's hand warmly as soon as he entered.

Deng Guang also introduced the other two people. "President Qin, these two are the representatives of Qing City and Jin City, Zhou Dazhou and Jin Cui."

After the two batches of Qinglin Ketchup arrived, the production increased greatly. Other than Cheng He, Deng Guang chose two regional agents from other cities to apply for representation. They were invited to the year-end banquet today, just like Cheng He.

Now that the market for Qinglin Ketchup was good, many people wanted to represent it.

However, Zhou Dazhou and Jin Cui had not seen him this year. Firstly, Deng Guang, the general manager of the food company, had already contacted them. Secondly, Qin Lin did not have the time to specially meet the two of them.

Zhou Dazhou and Jin Cui also went forward to shake hands with Qin Lin enthusiastically.

"President Qin, I've heard a lot about you."

"I've wanted to see President Qin for a long time. I've finally seen you today."

Qinglin Ketchup was very easy to sell and was sold in large quantities. It was a good deal for the two of them. They were also not satisfied with being an agent of a city and did not want to leave a bad impression on President Qin.

Outside.

The food had begun to be served in the hall. All the employees were already seated and were starting to eat noisily.

There were also banners hanging around. "Qinglin Villa, Qinglin Food Company's Year-End Banquet." It was obvious that this was the year-end banquet of Qinglin Villa.

The function of the banner was to be brief and clear. It was like a banner for a gathering at a hospital. "The operating theater is filled with money."

It was obvious at a glance. It could even be used as a textbook.

The people from Youcheng County TV Station had already set up the recording machine in the back.

At the table at the front, Zhao Moqing was also sitting with the finance and accounting department. The finance department's Xiao Xin was facing the stage with a phone.

The phone was naturally live-streaming. Since the official account of the villa had sent a video saying that the year-end banquet was going to live-stream and that he had to deliver medicinal wine and incense, he naturally could not go back on his word.

Xiao Xin looked at the number of people in the live-stream on her phone and was a little nervous because there were already more than 100,000 people online.

Since the highly popular Qinglin Medicine Wine for treating hemorrhoids and the sandalwood fragrance for sleeping were very attractive, the officials had given the live broadcast more traffic.

Although she did not need to show her face and only needed to take care of the phone and send a fortune bag, she had never seen such a big scene as a small accountant.

The number of live-streams of those A-list PK streamers and cargo streamers did not reach more than 100,000 during this period.

At this moment, Qinglin Villa's live-stream was already lively. Dense comments floated past:

"I'm not here for the medicinal wine for hemorrhoids."

"I'm not suffering from insomnia. I'm just here to take a look."

"Don't tell me someone is after the medicinal wine for hemorrhoids?"

"Haha, it's tiring work every day. Don't tell me there are still people who can't sleep?"

"I have hemorrhoids and insomnia. Please leave quickly, you don't need it. Don't snatch it!"

"…"

Clearly, the audience was really here for the medicinal wine and incense. The bullet screen content was also related to this.

When Qin Lin came out from backstage and returned to sit beside Zhao Moqing, a tall and elegant host walked onto the stage.

This was a member of the county's literary team. She was very beautiful. After she went on stage, she began to make an opening speech in a very pleasant voice.

As soon as the host went on stage, the comments in the villa's live-stream changed slightly.

"This host has a good figure!"

"Wow. Her face is very elegant. I like it."

"I beg the host to keep appearing from now on."

"Although Yaoyao is not bad, I don't mind if there are other girls in the villa video."

"…"

Xiao Xin looked at the sudden change in the comments and sighed that this was a group of perverts. Then, she did not forget her duty. Before the tail banquet began, she had to give out two 30ml medicinal wine and four six grams of sandalwood incense.

She operated it and silently handed out a lucky bag. Then she continued to look at the stage. The first performer was on stage.

The lucky bag also began to count down to receive it. However, a moment later, the entire live-stream exploded.

"F*ck, I suddenly realized that there was a lucky bag in the upper left corner. I thought I was mistaken."

"That's unprofessional. Shouldn't the process be announced first? What about those who didn't pay attention to it?"

"It's indeed unprofessional. I almost left without paying attention. Fortunately, I took a look at the phone screen."

"…"

When Xiao Xin saw the comments criticizing her, she felt that these people were fools.

She had always been a financial person, okay? She was definitely not a professional.

Soon, the first program of the year-end banquet began. As if afraid that the employees would be the first to go up and perform nervously, the first performer was a girl from the county's literary troupe. The program was a song, and it was a very festive song.

When the song ended, the main event began. All the employees saw a lucky draw interface appear on the big screen.

The beautiful hostess went on stage again and said in a sweet voice, "A good song ends. Next is a lucky draw that everyone is looking forward to."

"Everyone knows that the company has prepared many prizes for tonight's year-end banquet. However, other than that, the company has also invited some guests. They have also brought everyone a generous red packet as a gift."

"Now, let's welcome Qinglin Ketchup's acting businessman, President Zhou Dazhou. He brought five 2,000 yuan red packets for everyone."

Five 2,000 yuan red packets meant that five employees could win.

This raised the atmosphere among the employees. They applauded crazily and looked forward to being one of the five employees.

In this small county, 2,000 yuan was really a lot. Many people only earned a little more than 2,000 yuan a month.

Red packets brought by such customers usually came from a young age. Zhou Dazhou's five 2,000 yuan red packets were more registered than those of Lin Feng's suppliers. Normally, they would be placed at the back.

However, Zhou Dazhou had something urgent to attend to and needed to leave in a hurry. Naturally, he had to adjust the arrangements.

Zhou Dazhou walked onto the stage, and the beautiful female host handed the microphone in her hand to him.

After Zhou Dazhou took the microphone, he said with a smile, "First of all, I'm very honored to be able to attend the year-end banquet of Qinglin Company. As the agent of Qinglin Ketchup, I'm very grateful for everyone's efforts. It's precisely because of your production efforts that I can have bottles of delicious ketchup to sell to customers…"

After Zhou Dazhou spoke, the female host also walked forward and handed a remote control to Zhou Dazhou. "President Zhou, this is the lucky draw remote control. The name of every employee here has been recorded in the prize pool. As long as you press this remote control, the employees' names will randomly jump on the big screen. If you press the remote control again, it will stop. Then, you can personally draw these five lucky employees."

Zhou Dazhou did not hesitate and pressed the remote control. In an instant, names and corresponding photos appeared on the screen.

The name photo flashed so quickly that it was difficult for the human eye to see it. Even so, many employees still stared at it with wide eyes.

When Zhou Dazhou pressed the pause button again, the names and photos of five employees appeared on the screen.

"I won. Haha, I won."

"It's my name!"

A series of surprised voices sounded.

An employee did not seem to pay attention to the prize and thought that he would not win. When he won, he still lowered his head and ate the fish. The person beside him reminded him several times before standing up in shock.

Soon.

These five lucky employees were invited onto the stage by the host. Zhou Dazhou personally sent the red packets he had sent to the five of them. It was very ceremonial.

Beside him, a photographer from the villa was taking photos.

When the videographer from Youcheng County TV Station saw this, he sighed with his colleague beside him. "No company in Youcheng County has organized such a grand year-end banquet."

The person beside him also nodded.

The five winning employees on the stage could not wait to hold on to the thick red packets that Zhou Dazhou had given them. They could still hold it in on the stage, but they could not hold it in anymore when they got off the stage. They opened the red packets immediately and took out the cash inside, making their colleagues envious.

Then the beautiful hostess announced the start of a second program. This time it was also singing, but it was a duet between a young man and woman.

Seeing that there were two singing programs at the beginning, Qin Lin was very satisfied. Gao Yaoyao and the others had followed his instructions very strictly.

After that, programs followed one after another. Almost every program would have a lucky draw between them, and every lucky draw was definitely when the employees were the most enthusiastic and the atmosphere was intense.

Until the 10th performance.

Chen Dabei went to play the erhu. A security guard beside him cooperated and sang "Only by working hard can you win."

This combination made people smile bitterly. It was mainly because Chen Dabei's erhu could not keep up with the security guard's tune.

However, this was not a professional stage. It was just a company's party. Seeing two familiar people make a fool of themselves caused a wave of happy laughter.

When the security guard heard the laughter, he could only look vexed. He knew that this would happen. He did not want to sign up, but Supervisor Chen insisted on dragging him onto the stage to embarrass himself.

Chen Dabei did not care at all. It was as if he was doing it for fun. After the performance, he even bowed to all the employees.

When Chen Dabei and the security guard left the stage, Qin Lin revealed a happy expression. Another notification appeared in his mind:

[4/4 requirements for using the Musical Ceremony Scroll are met. Do you choose to use it?]

Qin Lin decisively controlled his game character to use it.

In the screen in his mind, the patterns on the Musical Ceremony Scroll also lit up with a special light. A moment later, they disappeared, but there was something else in the game character's backpack.

[Congratulations on obtaining a special item: Tree of Sound]

Chapter 276

The sound of the tree was a prop that looked like a tree root. The shape of the tree root was similar to a cartoon of an organ-type instrument.

Qin Lin had never obtained this tool in the old versions of Ranches Story.

This should be something added to the new version. He did not know its exact function.

The moment he received the notification, Qin Lin found an excuse and said to Zhao Moqing, "I'll go back to the villa to see Professor Ren and the others. You can take a look here."

He naturally wanted to leave and enter the game to take out the Tree of Sound to investigate.

"Okay!" Zhao Moqing did not think too much about it.

Professor Ren and the others were invited to the year-end banquet, but the four of them were clearly not interested in such an occasion.

Because of their identities, they were not forced to perform.

Be it Professor Ren's family background or Li Qing and Li Kai's uncle-nephew relationship, they were indeed incompatible with this kind of year-end banquet.

Qin Lin got up and left the county hall. He also put on a full show and drove straight to the villa. He returned to his office and entered the game.

He saw that the tree in his hand was no longer in the shape of a cartoon. Instead, it was really wrapped around by roots. They were very thick, and there were some ink-like patterns wrapped around them.

When he saw these patterns, he could roughly determine that this was another fantasy item.

[Tree of Sound: Mysterious tool!]

[Legend has it that trees have spirits after 500 years. When the wind blows, a pleasant special tree cry can appear between the leaves and branches, like a pleasant instrument playing.]

[This is a special item that can be obtained through some sacrifices. Using the Tree of Sound can modify a Quality 2 tree, allowing this tree to have the ability to sing in the wind: pleasant +2, peace of mind +2, relaxation of the body and mind +2, relieving pressure +2! Requirements: Tree age above 500 years.]

Qin Lin looked at the note in surprise.

It was not that he had not seen Quality 2 things before. There were many Quality 2 triangular plums in the Triangular Plum Sea. There were also attributes like gorgeous +2, viewability +2, attraction +2.

However, if the attributes of the triangular plum tree were used on the gaze, then the effect of the sound of the tree was used on the mental level, whether it was to calm the mind, relax the body, or relieve pressure.

These attributes were definitely very useful for people who could not calm down, were impetuous, and were under a lot of pressure.

What kind of people could travel? Most of them were under a lot of pressure and wanted to relax.

There was no doubt that this was definitely a good thing to use in a scenic area.

However, where could he find a 500-year-old tree in the villa to modify it with the Tree of Sound?

Transplant a 500-year-old tree?

This was not impossible.

What if he went to the deep mountains and forests to find a 500-year-old tree to modify?

Then he might as well not modify it.

Qin Lin was suddenly stunned. It was not like the villa did not have 500-year-old trees.

He thought of the two ginkgo trees not far from the backyard.

However, the two ginkgo trees had already completely withered and died. He did not know if he could use the Tree of Sound to modify them.

Furthermore, he did not know what would happen to the two ginkgo trees after the modification. He might waste this special prop.

With a thought, Qin Lin finally exited the game with the Tree of Sound.

Whether it could be modified or not, he would only know after trying. In any case, there was nothing else he could modify now.

He picked up a bag and packed the Tree of Sound. When he left the office, he met two patrolling security guards.

"Boss!"

The two security guards greeted him respectfully.

Although it was a year-end banquet today, not everyone from the villa and food company went to the county hall. There were people on duty, including the wine factory.

It was the same even during the holidays. Someone had to be on duty, especially to feed those ducks at the villa.

Especially the two signs at the villa, someone had to watch them.

It was not that these people on duty did not have benefits. Everyone had a big red packet. Then, when the others came to work on the second day of the new year, they could take a break. Furthermore, they would have three more days of vacation than the others.

Naturally, this was also voluntary. It depended on the person.

Some people chose to spend the new year with their families, but many people also chose big red packets and an additional three days of vacation.

However, there were limited spots that needed to be on duty. Not everyone who wanted to be on duty could stay on duty for the new year.

"You've worked hard." Qin Lin nodded at the two security guards and went straight to the original hall.

When he entered, he saw Professor Ren, Li Kai, Li Qing, and Professor Ren's assistant.

The four of them had clearly just finished eating. The chef on duty was in charge of cooking.

"Brother Qin, your year-end banquet is over so quickly?" Li Kai asked in confusion when he saw Qin Lin enter.

Qin Lin explained, "I came back to settle something."

"It's the first time I saw the company's year-end banquet, but the boss ran away," Li Qing teased. "Qin Lin, Uncle and I are going back to Ming City tomorrow. Remember to arrange for someone to check on the situation of the batch of wine every day."

"Yes, I'll arrange it." Qin Lin nodded.

At this moment, Professor Ren also said, "Boss Qin, I'm ashamed to say this. I haven't conquered the denaturation element in your medicinal wine yet. I'm going back tomorrow. I wonder if I can make a presumptuous request? Let me bring some wine back to the laboratory to study."

"Alright, I'll prepare it for Professor Ren tomorrow." Qin Lin nodded and did not reject Professor Ren. He did not expect his medicinal wine to be so difficult to study. Even an expert of Professor Ren's level had not been able to develop that denaturation element for so long.

Chapter 277

Hearing Qin Lin's words, Li Qing and Li Kai looked at him in unison. The meaning in their gazes was obvious.

Qin Lin saw the uncle and nephew's gazes and smiled. "I'll prepare more medicinal wine tomorrow."

"Brother Qin is so kind." Li Kai smiled in satisfaction. "I'll come over as soon as possible after the new year and help you look after those cultivated watermelons."

Qin Lin chatted with them for a while before entering the backyard.

There was a large area behind the original hall. Not just a backyard, but a large area that had not been developed and used.

It was actually a huge waste of this land.

However, there was no choice. The two 500-year-old ginkgo trees were blocking it.

If he wanted to develop this wasteland, he had to cut down these two ginkgo trees. However, he could not cut them down. He could imagine how big and wide the underground roots were.

To develop this area, he still needed to shovel out all those roots to build the foundation.

But who would dare to cut down two 500-year-old trees?

The highest was seven years of free meals in jail. He would be given the jail uniform and taught life skills.

Therefore, this land could only be left untouched.

On the other hand, Master Lin had been thinking of a way to save these two trees and had been nourishing them. After all, he had special feelings for these two trees (Chapter 25).

Qin Lin entered the backyard and walked for a while before arriving at the two withered ginkgo trees.

Because it was not developed, the surroundings were dark and there was no light, let alone surveillance.

Qin Lin looked around cautiously and only took out the Tree of Sound when he saw that no one was around.

[Do you want to use the Tree of Sound to modify a ginkgo tree in front of you?]

Another notification appeared in Qin Lin's mind.

In other words, could this completely withered ginkgo tree be modified?

He decisively chose yes. Then, he felt that something was wrong. There were two trees here. The system only said that it was one. Which one should he modify?

As he was thinking, the system notification appeared again:

[The Tree of Sound has begun to transform!]

The Tree of Sound in his hand instantly lit up and then dissipated. It flew towards the two withered ginkgo trees and crawled in.

Qin Lin felt that he had seen something wrong. Had he modified two trees at the same time?

Didn't it say to modify a tree?

The system should not be able to make such a numerical mistake.

Could it be that these two 500-year-old ginkgo trees were those rare twin trees that the system treated as one?

Twin trees with the same root were extremely rare. There were two trees outside, but the roots underground were actually the same.

Not only were such twin trees rare, but it was also difficult for two to grow at the same time. One would always grow stronger, block the sun, snatch nutrients, and make the other wither and rot.

If these two ginkgo trees that were more than 500 years old were twin trees with the same roots, it would be unbelievable.

Except now was not the time to think about that.

The Tree of Sound had already been used. It should have worked.

Qin Lin stared at the two ginkgo trees and realized that they did not react at all.

As he had feared, the two trees had completely withered. Has the Tree of Sound been wasted?

Qin Lin was indignant and waited in front of the two ginkgo trees.

For more than two hours, even when Zhao Moqing called, there was no movement from the two ginkgo trees.

He had no choice but to leave the villa and head to the county hall.

Zhao Moqing called because the year-end banquet had ended.

When he arrived backstage at the county hall, he saw Zhao Moqing talking to the tall and beautiful female host.

He had seen the information of the people from the county's art troupe. This host was called Lin Lanzi.

"Miss Lin, you can really consider coming to our villa." Zhao Moqing clearly wanted to recruit Lin Lanzi, the female host. "Although our villa is not a career unit, you also know that our villa's basic salary is definitely much higher than that of the county arts troupe. There's also the insurance, gold, and bonus. We happen to need a director of the multimedia department. I think you're very suitable."

She had naturally made up the multimedia department at the last minute.

She naturally wanted to recruit Lin Lanzi because she had a good image, talent, and good hosting skills. The villa would definitely need such a person in the future.

Most importantly, Lin Lanzi was beautiful and had a good image. She could appear in the video on the official account of the villa. After all, Gao Yaoyao couldn't always appear alone. The other party was already the head of the service department. It was very necessary for another person to cooperate with her.

"Director Zhao, I'll go back and think about it." Lin Lanzi was a little tempted. After all, she also knew how high Qinglin Villa's salary was. A waiter could earn more than 7,000 yuan. This was 3,000 yuan more than her salary in the Civil Affairs Group.

She had returned to her hometown and joined the arts troupe for some special reasons.

Although the arts troupe was a stable career unit, work was also very boring.

If she could have a salary that was tempting and interesting enough, she could not help but be tempted.

"Alright, give me a call when you've thought it through." Zhao Moqing did not insist and handed her business card to Lin Lanzi.

Lin Lanzi took the business card and walked out. When she saw Qin Lin enter, she greeted, "President Qin."

Qin Lin nodded in response. After Lin Lanzi left, he said to Zhao Moqing, "Why did you suddenly think of poaching someone from the art troupe?"

Chapter 278

Zhao Moqing complained, "It's all your fault. It's easy to be a boss. I'm exhausted, so I naturally have to find more helpers."

Qin Lin could not refute this.

After the year-end banquet ended, it was time to wrap up. Gao Yaoyao had already brought people to clean up. Chen Dabei had also brought people to tidy up the seats. He still had to return the three hotels tomorrow.

Chen Dabei was clearly in a good mood because he had won a phone that night.

After giving the instructions, Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing found Lin Fen and went home together.

Lin Fen held Wang Cai's hand, while Red Hair stood on Wang Cai's head and looked around.

This little guy had abandoned its underlings in the Sea of Flowers again today.

When he returned home, Qin Lin looked at the game on the screen in his mind as soon as he entered the room. He did not see the Musical Ceremony Scroll or the Tree of Sound. He was empty-handed after a busy day. In the end, he could only sigh.

"What's wrong? Why are you sighing as soon as you come back?" Zhao Moqing asked curiously.

"Honey, I need you to comfort me." Qin Lin smiled and hugged Zhao Moqing, his hands becoming naughty.

…

The night passed.

The next morning, Qin Lin did not wake up as usual. From today onwards, the villa would be on holiday. There was no need to deliver the goods early in the morning. The mature crops in the game could be sold in the game.

Therefore, when he saw Zhao Moqing wake up early in the morning, he looked at her sneakily.

Zhao Moqing's face instantly turned red.

Qin Lin's gaze was extremely familiar to her. This man was going to play tricks again.

Therefore, a beautiful sound quickly filled the room.

It was rare that he did not have to transport the goods early in the morning, so Qin Lin naturally would not let go of the opportunity to train with Zhao Moqing.

After a morning exercise, Qin Lin was thinking about working overtime when he received a call from Master Lin. "Boss, come to the villa quickly. Those two ginkgo trees are alive."

Master Lin's voice was clearly a little excited.

Qin Lin was stunned when he heard this news.

The two 500-year-old ginkgo trees had completely withered. Master Lin had always wanted to save them but had never succeeded. Now that they were suddenly alive, it immediately reminded him of the Tree of Sound last night.

Could it be that the Tree of Sound was not wasted?

This made him get up hurriedly. After hanging up, he went into the bathroom to take a shower before rushing to the villa.

When he arrived at the two 500-year-old ginkgo trees, Qin Lin realized that Master Lin was already fertilizing and watering the two trees excitedly.

When he saw the two ginkgo trees again, he was surprised. They had been about to wither completely, as if they were dead wood that would break at any moment.

Now, there were actually many sprouts growing on the two ginkgo trees. From the looks of it, the number of sprouts seemed to be very dense. If they grew, they would definitely become dense branches and leaves.

This was unusual. Besides, this was not the time for trees to grow tender leaves. The leaves of the southern ginkgo trees would not germinate until March at the earliest.

Now, the two withered ginkgo trees were growing buds densely.

This was definitely thanks to the Tree of Sound.

In other words, the Tree of Sound was effective. Furthermore, this effect was not reflected for a moment, but a continuous transformation process.

Seeing that Qin Lin was here, Master Lin hurriedly said, "Boss, look, these two trees are alive. Take good care of them. They will definitely revive. At that time, these two 500-year-old ginkgo trees will definitely be very spectacular."

Qin Lin smiled. Master Lin's situation was still too small. It was more than spectacular. It would be very awesome, okay?

After all, these were two 500-year-old ginkgo trees. Coupled with the attribute effect of the Tree of Sound, the first ginkgo tree would not be the one Li Shimin had planted. The first place would change hands.

Even if that ginkgo had been nurtured by the providence of countless dynasties, it could not compare to the power of the system.

As Qin Lin thought about it, he suddenly said to Master Lin, "Master Lin, you're too awesome. You finally saved these two ginkgo trees after so many years."

When Master Lin heard this, he was stunned for a moment. His eyes suddenly turned red.

Yes, after so many years, it was finally saved.

Chapter 279

Master Lin looked at the sprouting ginkgo tree with a face full of emotions.

He originally only wanted to fertilize the tree again before going back for the new year. Who knew that he would suddenly realize that the tree was alive?

All of a sudden, he recalled the days when he escaped here with his grandfather when he was young and the family lived under the ginkgo tree.

At that time, two ginkgo trees stood tall, their leaves lush and spectacular.

Although those days were difficult, they brought back memories and nostalgia.

Qin Lin's eyes darted around, but he continued to say to Master Lin, "Master Lin, it's all thanks to you that these two trees are still alive. When the time comes, I can transform this place into a ginkgo ornamental courtyard and use this wasteland according to the scale of Li Shimin's ginkgo tree in Chang'an Guanyin Temple."

"When the time comes, I'll erect another stone tablet here and write about your relationship with this ginkgo tree. I'll tell everyone that you spent decades saving the tree."

Master Lin hurriedly said, "Boss, it hasn't been a decade."

Qin Lin smiled and said, "That's not important. I'll write that it has been decades for the dramatic effect. Perhaps one day, this ginkgo tree will become popular and everyone will know. Someone might even be willing to make a movie after seeing the story of you and the ginkgo tree."

He was trying his best to fool Master Lin.

After all, he knew very well what it would be like if the two ginkgo trees above 500 years recovered.

Ancient trees of 500 years were already rare, let alone ornamental trees like ginkgo.

Think about how spectacular the tree Li Shimin planted would be during the viewing season.

Furthermore, this tree had been modified by the Tree of Sound. In the future, countless tourists would probably come here to listen to the Tree of Sound. At that time, this tree would become a god and a world-class wonder.

Therefore, Master Lin had to take the credit for how this tree revived.

"Really?" Master Lin suddenly looked forward to it when he heard Qin Lin say that. If there was a chance to make a movie, he would become famous.

If the boss said he had saved them for decades, then he had saved them for decades.

Master Lin thought of something and suddenly said, "Boss, I still have some old photos of this ginkgo tree at home. Do you want to show them?"

"That's good." Qin Lin smiled. The deception was very successful.

Now, it was up to the two ginkgo trees to recover. After all, they had only begun to sprout.

Qin Lin looked at the two trees for a while before returning to his office. He locked the door and entered the game. Then, he took out four silver wine bottles from the ranch house and went to the storage room to store the wine.

He had promised Professor Ren and Li Qing last night.

What he gave Professor Ren was naturally the medicinal wine to treat hemorrhoids. The other party wanted to study the denaturation elements in the wine.

Li Kai seemed to have hemorrhoids too, so he gave them three bottles of medicinal wine for hemorrhoids.

Fortunately, other than those that were taken out for the villa activities, there were still some left.

He gave Li Qing a second-brewed kidney nourishing medicinal wine.

The second batch of medicinal wine was already 20 years old. As for the first batch, it was already more than 30 years old and was starting to reach 40 years old.

At this rate, the century-old wine was not far away.

He began to consider taking some of the first batch of wine out after a while. 40 years, 50 years, 60 years… Some of it had to seem reasonable.

After packing the four bottles of wine, Qin Lin brought them out of the game and headed straight to the original hall.

As soon as he left the office, he saw Zhang Guizhu walking towards him.

This female breeder was also on duty for the new year.

Under her efforts, the squirrels in the Sea of Flowers basically put on small clothes and lived in the pine tree house bought by the system.

However, the squirrels needed to be taken care of, but she was the only breeder.

When Zhang Guizhu saw Qin Lin, she clearly had something on. She went forward immediately. "Boss, can the people on duty during the new year invite their families to the villa to play?"

For the sake of those little squirrels, she had no choice but to be on duty during the New Year. In fact, she had no choice but to save her vacation until they recruited another breeder.

However, she still hoped to spend the New Year with her parents. If only she could let her parents come to the villa to play.

"Alright, but follow the rules of the villa and don't mess around. Otherwise, if anything goes wrong, I can only follow the rules of the villa." Qin Lin thought about it and made a humane choice. It could be considered another benefit for the on-duty employees.

However, he had to make it clear first. Once something happened, he would fire whoever brought their family here. The compensation would not be small.

If they really brought such a family member to the villa who caused trouble, they could only blame themselves.

However, the salary of the villa was so high that it was difficult to find a second one in Youcheng County. Those employees would definitely pay more attention.

Furthermore, the relevant on-duty employees had to be responsible. They would also be responsible for supervising each other.

When Zhang Guizhu heard Qin Lin's words, she quickly promised with a face full of joy, "Don't worry, Boss. I understand. Thank you, Boss."

Qin Lin nodded and said, "Then I'll leave you in charge of this matter. Go tell the other employees."

"Okay, Boss. I'll take care of the villa during the New Year. There won't be any problems." Zhang Guizhu promised again and walked out in a good mood. Not long after, she bumped into someone.

"Zhang Guizhu, are you on duty for the New Year too?" Yang Dong immediately jogged forward enthusiastically. "I'm also on duty. We're really in the same boat."

Zhang Guizhu disagreed. "It's pitiful that you have to raise ducks in the reservoir, but I can enjoy the beautiful scenery in the Sea of Flowers and tease the squirrels. I don't think it's pitiful."

Chapter 280

"…" Yang Dong was speechless. This was not easy to answer. An awkward silence would soon ensue. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and said, "What you said makes sense. I'm also interested in raising squirrels. Can you teach me?"

"…" Zhang Guizhu suddenly looked at Yang Dong strangely.

This guy had only been in the job for a few days, but he had already bumped into her every day and asked for her WeChat and phone number. If she had not watched love dramas in vain, this guy's flirting methods were very outdated.

…

When Qin Lin brought the four bottles of medicinal wine to the original hall, Li Kai was instructing the two security guards on duty to move the equipment from the backyard to the hall.

Seeing Qin Lin come, he went forward and said, "Brother Qin, I'm going back. I want to leave these equipment with you. Arrange a place for me to put my things. These things are quite expensive."

"Pack it in the storage room at the back of the hall. You can lock it up when the time comes." Qin Lin pointed in the direction of the bar.

There was an aquarium in the original hall. After the watermelon cultivation in the backyard was successful, work would start. There was nothing else in the storage room behind the bar. It was just right for Li Kai.

At this moment, Li Qing also walked over and smiled at the medicinal wine in Qin Lin's hand. "Qin Lin, if I'm not wrong, one of my bottles is in here."

"Congratulations, you guessed correctly." Qin Lin smiled and gave the bottle of medicinal wine that nourished the kidneys to Li Qing.

"It's silver-level. What a brother." Li Qing's eyes lit up.

He was originally satisfied to bring a bottle of bronze wine back. In addition to the three bottles he had previously hidden, there were four bottles of Qinglin Medicine Wine in his collection room. However, he did not expect to accidentally obtain silver wine.

This was also a big surprise to him, because he knew very well how classic this wine was. It was simply peerless.

Qin Lin also took out the other three bottles of wine and handed them to Li Kai and Professor Ren.

"Boss Qin, remember to inform me if anything happens to the ducks. I'll get that old friend to come over immediately." Professor Ren did not forget to remind him after taking the wine.

Two days ago, they had unintentionally heard Boss Qin mention that the address given by the duck seller was fake. The other party had filled in someone else's livestock farm, which had already proven that the other party was making Boss Qin take over.

Now, no one knew where this person had gone.

The reason why Boss Qin was tricked into buying it was because he had promised to solve the genetic mutation problem.

He had to be responsible for this matter. He could not cheat Boss Qin…

"Okay, Professor Ren." Qin Lin nodded.

There would be no problem with the duck, but he had to accept Professor Ren's kindness. Furthermore, Professor Ren was now the greatest witness to his source of ducks.

Before noon, Professor Ren and the Li family left one after another to go home for the New Year.

Qin Lin also left the villa and accompanied Zhao Moqing and his mother to prepare some things at home.

They came from the countryside and would return to their hometown for the New Year. They also had to worship in the ancestral hall.

He naturally had to prepare the things for the worship and bring them back to the countryside first. There was also food to prepare.

Lin Fen was the happiest this year because Zhao Moqing was going back as the daughter-in-law of the Qin family.

A few months ago, she was still afraid that her daughter-in-law, Zhao Moqing, would fly away. Now, she would not be able to run away.

When she was preparing, she did not forget to teach Zhao Moqing a lot about the worshiping process. "There have to be three small plates for tea leaves and a small cup for wine. A piece of red paper has to be cut and pasted on the duck's neck…"

Zhao Moqing had lived in the county city since she was young. Her family was from the county city, and her grandfather's grandfather lived in the county city. In terms of paying respects to her ancestors during the New Year, it was not as troublesome as in the countryside.

What Lin Fen taught her really broadened her horizons and made her curious.

In the afternoon, Qin Lin received a call from Qin Ren. As soon as the call was picked up, Qin Ren's voice came through. "Lin Zi, we're outside your neighborhood."

When they returned to the old residence during the New Year, many people from the same old house would arrange to go back together.

His family and Qin Ren's family were no exception. In the past, before he and Qin Ren graduated, Uncle Shuigen had rented a car for the New Year. The five of them could sit together.

This year was different. He had bought a car and still had to bring Zhao Moqing along. Qin Ren had just bought a car a year ago, and his fiancée, Liao Li, had to follow him back. Liao Li was also pregnant, so the two of them had registered their marriage first.

The old residence would be more lively with two new wives this year.

Qin Lin, his mother, and Zhao Moqing loaded the things they wanted to bring into the car and drove out of the district with Wang Cai and Red Hair.

Outside the district, Qin Ren and his father, Qin Shuigen, were also smoking BESIDE the car.

Seeing that the windshield in front of the car was a little dirty, Qin Ren carefully wiped it clean. His appearance made Liao Li a little jealous.

However, people who bought a car for the first time would always take good care of it. Most of the time, they were more attentive to the car than their wives. Their mood was probably no different from when they had just married.

This car would only return to normal after a few months.

Qin Ren's car was an Audi A4L, a 45-grand edition. It was bought with a loan and cost 360,000 yuan. With their studio's original income, the few of them did not have much money left, so they naturally could not afford this car.

However, this year was different. Qin Lin had suddenly established Qinglin Villa. In a short period of time, his business had increased and given their studio a lot of business. This was a huge income.

Their studio still used the plan to expand Qinglin Villa to contact the county department and took on many official businesses.

Chapter 281

In addition, those companies who had contacted them were also willing to look for their studio.

After that, it was much easier to talk business with other companies. There were still many people looking for him.

They knew that this was a rare opportunity and had to seize it well. They had also endured the test and stabilized these clients. They planned to recruit some more people next year.

Therefore, he was very grateful to Qin Lin.

Naturally, the studio received a dividend this year. The partners also earned a lot of money. After Hu Fei received the money, coupled with his parents' sponsorship, he planned to buy a house after the New Year.

He did have a house, so he naturally bought a suitable car.

When he saw Qin Lin's car come out, Qin Ren immediately threw down his cigarette and stepped on it. Then, he went up to greet him.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. Let's go!" Qin Lin said with a smile.

Qin Ren also returned to the car and started it. He drove ahead.

He was looking forward to returning to the village. Didn't they say that returning to the village during the New Year was to show off their cars?

There were only two young people in the village who could afford his Audi. One was him, and the other was Qin Lin.

Their village was 40 minutes away from the county city. When they approached the village, there was a car in front and behind them. They were also driving towards the village.

When Qin Lin and Qin Ren drove back to the village, many people had returned. Some people had cars parked in front of their houses, but some people could clearly park in the courtyard, but they insisted on parking by the roadside.

Their BMW 5 Series and Audi A4L were not considered luxury cars, but not many people in the village could afford them. As they drove past, they naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Qin Lin and Qin Ren's old residence was in the center of the village, facing up on the main road. When Qin Ren and Qin Lin drove to their old residence, the car behind them also saw it.

In the car were a few young people. Clearly, they were having a good time.

The few of them were a little surprised to see this scene. The young man driving said, "This road is to Qin Ren and Qin Lin's house, right? Did they buy the Audi and BMW?"

The other young man shook his head. "I don't think so. The two of them graduated three years later than us. Their parents don't have the money either, especially Qin Lin's family."

The young man in the front passenger seat frowned and said, "Maybe the two of them really earned money this year. We might not know if we haven't been back for a year, but I heard Dad mention it on the phone previously. Qin Lin seems to have really become successful."

"Won't we know when we ask later?" The third person frowned and said, "Qin Long's family has a good relationship with Qin Lin's family. We can ask Qin Long what he's doing. He might be able to enlighten us and let us earn some money elsewhere."

Clearly, these young people were in the same batch as Qin Long.

At the mention of Qin Long, the people in the car clearly had strange expressions.

Someone else said, "I heard that Qin Long went to jail some time ago for fighting with someone over a woman."

The other man said, "He's stupid. I heard that the woman is married to the other party now and is pregnant. He ruined himself for a woman."

"His life is ruined. It's a question of finding a girlfriend," the young man driving teased.

Clearly, they naturally felt a sense of superiority towards someone of the same age like Qin Long.

Moreover, at the mention of girlfriends, the young man driving became excited. "I've been chatting with a girl on WeChat recently. I feel pretty good. I plan to bring her to Qinglin Villa to play after the New Year."

"This Qinglin Villa is really very famous." Another young man said, "I often hear from the people around me when I'm outside. I can often see videos of Qinglin Villa on the Internet. I wonder who created this Qinglin Villa."

The young man in the front passenger seat suddenly said with a strange expression, "Didn't Dad mention it when I called previously? It seems like Qin Lin was the one behind Qinglin Villa."

These words clearly stunned everyone in the car.

"…"

"…"

Chapter 282

When they heard that Qinglin Villa was actually driven by Qin Lin, the young people in the car took a long time to react.

Anyone would be shocked.

Before this, who didn't know about Qin Lin's family?

His grandfather and father had died of cancer one after another and were in debt. They had borrowed money from many people in the village and had also borrowed from their family. It was just that their family had not lent them money.

In the past, even if Qin Lin's family was bankrupt, that debt was enough for him to repay it for the rest of his life.

Now, he was telling them that Qin Lin actually owned Qinglin Villa?

A poor man had become a tycoon?

The young men still could not believe that such an unbelievable thing had happened after they had been away for a year?

"That seems to be Qin Long. Let's ask him." Someone suddenly pointed ahead and saw a young man getting off a motorcycle by the roadside.

In this society, it was clearly very bad for young people to drive a motorcycle back to the village during the New Year. However, when they saw that it was Qin Long, they did not find it strange.

After all, this guy's reputation had long spread.

The young man driving stopped the car beside Qin Long and greeted, "Qin Long, you're back?"

"Qin Hao, it's you guys," Qin Long replied with a frown when he saw them. Although they were classmates and from the same village, he did not have much interaction with these four people.

Qin Hao and the others were a clique in the village.

"Qin Long, what have you been doing recently?" Qin Hao did not directly inquire about Qin Lin. Instead, it was as if he wanted to catch up with Qin Long first.

Qin Long didn't hide anything and smiled. "I borrowed 300,000 yuan from Dad and contracted a piece of land to plant tomatoes."

"You're working with agricultural products?" Qin Hao clearly did not think highly of this project. He shook his head and said, "Qin Long, why can't you do anything else with 300,000 yuan? It's not easy to do agricultural products these days. Many people lose everything, especially tomatoes. Didn't you see that many places on the Internet are not selling well?"

Qin Hao clearly analyzed it logically, as if he was very familiar with this industry. However, the young man in the front passenger seat suddenly said, "Um, Qinglin Ketchup seems to be from Qinglin Villa, right?"

"Uh!" The smile on Qin Hao's face suddenly froze.

He naturally knew what he meant. Qin Lin owned Qinglin Villa, and Qinglin Ketchup was also Qin Lin's.

Now that Qin Long was planting tomatoes, he must have received Qin Lin's care, right? Then it was impossible for him to lose money.

Looking at Qin Long's silent smile, Qin Hao only felt a little red in the face. He hurriedly stepped on the accelerator and started the car to leave.

…

Qin Lin did not know this. He had already driven the car into the courtyard of the old residence.

As soon as the car door opened, Wang Cai, the dog, couldn't help but cry out.

On the dog's head, Red Hair also squeaked while riding the dog.

Qin Lin got out of the car and looked at the old residence in front of him with some emotion. This was where he had grown up.

Because it had just been renovated, the old house was not as old as last year.

After getting out of the car, the two families took out the things they had prepared from the trunk. After all, they had to spend the two days of the New Year in the old residence.

Qin Lin naturally brought back a lot of things. There was Quality 2 wild fish, eel, conch, loach, vegetables, watermelons, strawberries, and Xiangshui Tribute Rice.

Furthermore, there were a lot of them. They filled the entire trunk.

These things attracted the attention of Qin Ren and Qin Shuigen. After all, they had eaten this at Qin Lin's house and Qinglin Villa. The taste was too classic.

Qin Ren immediately went forward and placed his hand on Qin Lin's shoulder with a smile. "Lin Zi, you actually brought so many things with you for the New Year."

"Are you hungry?" Qin Lin asked jokingly.

Qin Ren did not deny it and said with a smile, "Yes, I am. Why don't you provide the ingredients and I'll provide the culinary skills?"

"Call Uncle Dashan, Uncle Dalin, and the others over too. I want to treat them to a meal," Qin Lin said with a smile. He had brought so many things this time to treat these people who had helped his family a meal in the old residence.

It was good to be back today.

On the 30th of the year, everyone had to keep watch and eat at their own homes. On the first day of the new year, they had to sacrifice again. Then, everyone would leave.

Now that everyone in society was busy with their livelihood, they could no longer be as slow as before. There was still time from the first day of the New Year to the 15th.

Qin Ren immediately smiled and said, "Okay, I'll help you run errands later."

"I'll go later. Xiao Ren, take good care of Liao Li," Qin Shuigen said.

Qin Lin's father was dead, and he was considered Qin Lin's elder. He had to help invite guests. In the future, when Qin Lin got married, he had to help take the blame. His son also had to help light the firecrackers.

After moving everything in the car, Qin Lin brought Zhao Moqing to tidy up his old room.

Qin Shuigen instructed and left immediately to help Qin Lin invite people.

Qin Lin and Qin Ren's old residence was made of wood. Even when Qin Lin opened the window, he could see the tile roof and the moss.

This kind of pure farm house surprised Zhao Moqing.

Qin Lin closed the door and walked behind Zhao Moqing to hug her waist. He asked, "Honey, are you good with holding your breath?"

"Why are you asking this?" Zhao Moqing asked curiously.

"The soundproofing of this room is not good. You might have to endure it very hard." Qin Lin leaned into Zhao Moqing's ear teasingly and said, "Mom lives downstairs."

Chapter 283

"Ah…" Zhao Moqing instantly understood what Qin Lin meant. "Then don't mess around. You're getting better at torturing people. I'm afraid I won't be able to hold it in."

Qin Lin nodded seriously. "Alright, I knew you were good at holding your breath. I'm relieved tonight."

"Do you want to die?!" Zhao Moqing immediately rolled her eyes at Qin Lin. This man would definitely play tricks tonight.

When Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing came out of the room, someone had already arrived. Qin Dashan had brought his wife and son, Qin Long.

"Xiao Lin, Moqing is here too." Qin Dashan walked forward with a smile.

"Qin Lin." Qin Long followed behind.

Qin Lin also smiled and greeted, "Brother Long, how's the tomato plantation you contracted coming along?"

Qin Long smiled and explained, "I've basically hired someone to plow the land. It'll be February after the new year. It'll be a good day to plant tomatoes. I'll inform you when the plantation officially opens for planting."

"Okay!" Qin Lin nodded.

Not long after.

Qin Dalin and Qin Ergen, who had lent money to help Qin Lin's family during the most difficult times, were also invited by Qin Shuigen.

The old residence immediately became lively.

"Lin Zi, this is your Brother Ka Zi." Qin Dalin brought a young man to Qin Lin. He was much older than Qin Lin. "I've rented a shop in the old district. As expected, someone from the county came to register. After I received the news from you, I built a big shop. Next year, I plan to get your Brother Ka Zi to come back and help out in the shop."

Qin Lin also greeted Qin Ka. "Brother Ka Zi, long time no see."

"Yes, Lin Zi, you're really surprising," Qin Ka said with emotion.

In the past, when the old man lent money to the other party's family, he was prepared that the other party's family would not be able to repay the money for a long time.

What he did not expect was that Qin Lin would suddenly become so capable.

The old man almost did not react when he told him. His family had benefited greatly from his previous kindness.

He had seen the world outside and naturally knew how much potential the county had for the food street. If he had the initiative, he could be the first to get the dividend.

This was all thanks to Qin Lin's information.

Qin Lin's old residence was very lively, so many people in the village naturally saw it. During the past two days, the people from the village who came back to talk the most were naturally Qin Lin and Qinglin Villa.

Everyone was busy overseas and rarely contacted each other. Even if they knew about Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Ketchup online, it was difficult to contact Qin Lin.

However, when they returned to the village, they chatted with each other. Qin Ergen, Qin Dalin, and the others all knew the details of Qinglin Villa, so they naturally revealed some information while chatting. Then, the entire village spread the news.

Now, everyone knew that the famous Qinglin Villa and Qinglin Ketchup were all Qin Lin's businesses.

This person, who was still in a poor household last year and borrowed money everywhere for everyone to avoid, had become a big boss this year.

Qin Lin was now the richest man in the village. No one in the village had achieved his current achievements.

The doors of the old residence in the village were wide open. With so many people gathered in Qin Lin's old residence, many places could be seen.

Everyone knew that Qin Ergen, Qin Dashan, and the others had been invited by Qin Lin. The village was not big. Everyone knew who had borrowed Qin Lin's family money back then and who had not.

He originally thought that Qin Lin's family would not be able to make a comeback. Who knew that the outcome would be like this?

If they had lent them the 20,000 to 30,000 yuan back then, not only would they have gotten back the money, but Qin Lin would also owe them a favor. They could also ask Qin Lin to bring them to drink some soup, right?

Qin Hao sat in his hall and searched for videos of Qinglin Villa. The more he searched, the more shocked he was. Qin Lin's business was too big. There were 800 employees alone.

There were not many companies of this scale in Youcheng County.

Looking at the lively scene in Qin Lin's old residence in the distance, he could not help but envy Qin Long. This fellow was stupid and had a criminal record as a bootlicker. However, he had a good father. Back then, lending Qin Lin money was really a good investment.

"Dad, why didn't you lend the money to Qin Lin's family back then?" Qin Hao complained to his father, Qin Ze, who was beside him. "That way, I wouldn't have to watch enviously as that silly Qin Long hitch a ride with such a luxurious car. With this favor back then, I would be able to ride on this car no matter what."

When Qin Ze heard his son's words, he said angrily, "He suddenly became rich. He's probably up to no good. How long do you think he can last?"

Actually, he did not feel good either. Back then, he did not lend Qin Lin's family money because he firmly believed that it would be difficult for the other party's family to make a comeback in Qin Lin's generation. He even made some sarcastic remarks. Who knew that the other party would do this?

In Qin Lin's old residence, the women of the two families, including Liao Li and Zhao Moqing, had already gone to the kitchen to help. Since they had been invited, they naturally had to cook.

Qin Lin had invited Qin Dalin and the others over to tell everyone that he would remember the favor. At the same time, he had a feeling of exaltation upon fulfillment.

By now, everyone in the village should know that he was the one who opened Qinglin Villa. This matter could not be hidden anymore. Back then, when his mother went to borrow money, he had nothing to say about those who did not lend money. After all, there was no need to lend him money. However, he would remember those who made sarcastic remarks to provoke him.

He also wanted to tell those people what it meant by three years of peace. He would ignore them even if they wanted to climb up in the future.

Qin Dalin, Qin Dashan, and Qin Ergen were not fools. They naturally knew Qin Lin's intentions. Furthermore, it was definitely a huge fortune to be remembered by someone like Qin Lin.

Chapter 284

Putting aside the fact that they would get useful information from Qin Lin like Qin Dalin did, just the fact that if their family really encountered any difficulties in the future and needed money for a serious illness, Qin Lin would definitely help them if they begged him.

This was a guarantee.

Otherwise, even if he was seriously ill and wanted to borrow money, how much would the relatives and friends lend him?

Just this guarantee was of great value, enough for them to cherish.

Many people in the village should be regretting their sarcastic remarks now, right?

At least if it were them, now that Qin Lin was so successful, they would definitely regret not helping Qin Lin when he was in trouble.

This meal was all Quality 2 food, so it naturally made Qin Dalin and Qin Dashan's stomachs roll.

This was the first time Qin Da had eaten such a delicious meal. He had bitten his tongue in a hurry. The kind that really sucked out a lot of blood made Qin Dalin scold him for being inexperienced.

Qin Ka really couldn't refute his father. He had really never eaten it before. While being scolded, he silently got himself a bowl of fish soup.

After the meal, the group naturally chatted about family matters. They only dispersed and went back at night.

At night.

After cleaning up the dishes, Qin Lin pulled Zhao Moqing back to her room. He originally wanted to do something with Zhao Moqing to see how good she was at holding her breath.

However, as soon as he entered, he saw Wang Cai follow him in. Red Hair also jumped onto the bed.

Zhao Moqing took the opportunity to close the door and looked at Qin Lin with a smile. "Looks like you can't do anything bad tonight."

Qin Lin could only glare at the dog and Red Hair helplessly. Wasn't this causing trouble?

Therefore, he could only sleep with Zhao Moqing at night without playing around in bed with her.

When Zhao Moqing went to wash up, Qin Lin also looked at his game character. Other than harvesting ripe crops to sell today, the 35 fish and trees on Mount Notre Dame were cut down.

After spending some time, Qin Lin used the fishing rod to catch all 35 refreshed fish. Today, other than the Quality 2 and 1 fish, he caught three more ornamental fishes. They were two tetra and one angelfish.

In the pond where the fish were stored, there were already more than 1,000 fish. In addition to Quality 2 and 1, there were also more than 120 ornamental fish.

When the breeding net box in the reservoir was ready, the fish of Quality 1 and 2 could be placed directly in the reservoir. As for the ornamental fish, they could only wait for the aquarium to be built.

After catching the fish, Qin Lin controlled his game character to go to Mount Notre Dame to cut trees. Unfortunately, he only obtained a sandalwood tree today.

Moreover, the probability of this thing refreshing was a little high.

Then, Qin Lin controlled his game character to head to the mine.

After the upgrade, the fourth floor of the mine should be open. He wanted to see if he could dig up anything good.

This time, there was indeed no obstruction at the entrance to the fourth floor.

As soon as he entered the fourth floor, he took out his digging tools and dug in those empty spaces first.

He seemed to be in luck this time. He had not been digging for long when he received a system notification:

[Congratulations on obtaining Violet Jadeite Ore: Quality 2]

[This is a piece of violet ore that can be sold for gold coins! You can also forge jewelry at Sabara's.]

Quality 2 Violet Jadeite Ore?

Qin Lin's eyes lit up when he saw this harvest. The last time he gave Zhao Moqing a pendant made of Quality 1 violet, the pendant was worth more than 60,000 yuan.

This Quality 2 Violet Jadeite should be even more expensive, right? Besides, he should prepare more jewelry.

It was true that he and Zhao Moqing had registered their marriage, but he still owed her a wedding and a marriage proposal.

Therefore, after the comprehensive Sea of Flowers was built, he would take wedding photos with her inside (Chapter 61). After that, he would officially propose to her and hold a wedding.

Before that, he had to prepare more wedding jewelry for her. When the time came, he would give her a huge surprise.

With that in mind, Qin Lin controlled his game character to wave his tools and dig again.

A Quality 2 Violet Jadeite was not enough. Moreover, he did not think that it was too much no matter how many accessories he prepared for Zhao Moqing.

Not long after, another notification appeared in his mind's game:

[Congratulations on digging up special soil!]

Chapter 285

Special soil?

When Qin Lin received this notification, he looked at the bag icon in his backpack in surprise.

He had almost forgotten about it.

When he had bought the stockings from Olive Town on television, he had gone to the forum to look for relevant posts and had even seen some interesting ones.

One of those posts seemed to be a special kind of soil that could be dug out in the mine.

At that time, his attention was on the stockings and he did not pay much attention to this post. After all, he could only enter the third floor of the mine. Who knew that he could dig up special soil on the fourth floor?

In the new version, the special soil was also a special prop that could modify the nature of a square of land for a period of time.

Furthermore, there was more than one type of special soil. He remembered that a player on the official forum had posted that he had obtained two types of special soil.

One was soil that could make crops stink. After using this soil to modify the nature of the land, the crops planted on it would stink and the price would drop drastically.

One was soil that could make crops sweeter. After modifying the nature of the land, the crops planted would be sweeter and sold for a higher price.

The effect of these special soils transforming the nature of the land was not forever. After planting crops a few times, the effect was exhausted.

Naturally, this was only the effect of two of the special soils. The game also had special soils that could accelerate the growth of crops and soil that could cultivate new varieties.

This kind of soil was more precious.

Qin Lin was curious about the attributes of the soil he had dug up.

"What are you thinking about in a daze?" Zhao Moqing washed up and changed into her pajamas.

Qin Lin came back to his senses and looked at Zhao Moqing sneakily. "I'm thinking of a way to get Wang Cai and Red Hair out."

When Zhao Moqing heard this, she was embarrassed. "Can't you be obedient for the next two days? I'll let you do whatever you want when we go back."

"Then I'll be obedient here. I'll do whatever I want when I get back," Qin Lin said as he reached out to Zhao Moqing's lips.

Zhao Moqing understood and said fiercely, "I'll bite you off!"

"I don't believe you can bear to." Qin Lin smiled proudly.

Although they were an old couple, Zhao Moqing still resisted some of the tricks between husband and wife.

Therefore, he had to seize the opportunity when he had to. After all, that was a benefit that a husband should enjoy.

Zhao Moqing looked at Qin Lin's smug expression and felt even more embarrassed. She simply ignored him and crawled into bed. She took out her phone and scrolled through the official video of the villa.

This was one of the things she did every day. The comments on official videos sometimes let her know what was lacking in the villa.

"I'll go out and get something." Qin Lin took the opportunity to leave the room.

He naturally wanted to enter the game to check the information of this special soil.

Many places in the old residence were not connected to electric lights, and there were many hidden places. Qin Lin casually found a place to look at the screen in his mind. After controlling the game character to return to the ranch, he entered the game and saw the bag of soil.

In the real world, there was a lot of soil in this bag. It was a sack filled with 50 catties of soil.

[Special Soil: Special Item!]

[This is a special soil buried deep underground. The special elements it contains have a special effect. After modifying the nature of the land, it can increase the survival rate of the crops on the land by +2 and the probability of genetic improvement by +1 before the special elements are exhausted.]

Qin Lin saw the note on the special soil.

This special soil was marked as a 'special item', which was different from the 'mysterious item' recorded by the Tree of Sound.

Since the notes were different, the classification of this prop was clearly different.

Qin Lin did not pay attention to this for the time being. Instead, he looked at the attributes of this special soil. It was not what was said on the forum. The attributes increased the survival rate of crops by 2 and the genetic improvement rate by 1.

This made him subconsciously think of the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds.

He had been experimenting with planting Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds and had never succeeded. The biggest reason was that the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds were extremely harsh on the growth environment. Other than the area in Xiangshui, it could not be planted anywhere else.

At the end of the day, the reason was that the environment did not meet the requirements and the survival rate was low.

If there was this +2 survival rate, the survival rate of cultivating the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds would be greatly increased, right?

Furthermore, this soil had a chance of genetic improvement +1. The probability of Xiangshui Tribute Rice adapting to the environmental mutation should be related to genetic change, right?

Qin Lin suddenly felt eager.

In the game, it only took one click to modify the land with special soil. In reality, he should use the method of fertilizing the land to modify it himself.

It was just that it was late at night and there was no way to do it. He had to go back to his room to do it tomorrow.

After getting under the blanket, he continued to look at the game on the screen in his mind. He controlled the game character to go to the Spring Mine again and dig in the fourth level.

This time it didn't take long. There was another gain:

[Congratulations on obtaining a piece of blue and white jade ore: Quality 2]

[This is a special jadeite ore that can be sold in the game for gold coins. You can also find Sebara from a jewelry shop to forge jewelry.]

This thing was naturally left for Zhao Moqing to make jewelry.

He continued to control the game character excavation.

[Congratulations on obtaining a blood jade ore: Quality 1]

…

[Congratulations on obtaining a piece of Violet Jadeite Ore: Quality 1]

The harvest on the fourth floor was clearly not bad.

Qin Lin excavated all the areas on the fourth floor and obtained another piece of blood jade ore and violet ore.

Chapter 286

Furthermore, after continuing to dig in the shattered stone area, he shattered a few stones and obtained another Quality 2 yellow jade.

Not to mention the harvest of the special soil, just the four pieces of jade excavated tonight could forge four accessories for Zhao Moqing.

When Qin Lin's game character was about to finish digging through the entire stone area, he gained something again.

[Congratulations on digging up special soil.]

Qin Lin looked at it immediately. The backpack icon was another bag containing grayish-black soil. This was also soil with Survival +2, Chance of Improving Genes +1.

He was really lucky today. He had gained a lot.

Qin Lin continued to control his game character to smash those rocks and dig. After that, he did not gain anything until the entrance to the fifth floor appeared.

He tried to control the game character to enter the fifth floor, but he was surprised to find that the game character was not restricted this time and directly entered the fifth floor.

Not only had the fourth level been opened for this upgrade, but even the fifth level had been opened. It was not like before when the first level had been upgraded?

However, when he thought about it, it made sense. There were 255 floors in the Spring Mine. It couldn't be that it needed 255 upgrades to completely open, right?

The further he went, the more levels he could open up.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to enter the fifth floor of the mine. Just as he was about to continue digging, he realized that his game character was lying on the ground purple.

This was a long excavation. The game character was exhausted.

He had to control the game character to go back to the ranch house to rest.

Zhao Moqing was also tired from watching videos. She put down her phone and hooked her fair arm around his neck. "Turn off the light and sleep?"

Qin Lin could only come back to his senses and ask, "Are we really not going to do anything tonight?"

"Behave yourself tonight. We agreed." Zhao Moqing clearly did not want to give in at all.

Hearing this, Qin Lin looked at Zhao Moqing's sexy lips and smiled in satisfaction. "Yes, we agreed. I'll wait to enjoy your service."

Zhao Moqing said angrily, "Quickly turn off the lights."

A moment later, the room went dark.

The next day, when the two of them woke up, Lin Fen was already cooking with wood in the kitchen. Qin Ren's house was equally busy.

Today, the two families had to be busy with their own things. They had to prepare the offerings, the candles, and the red stickers for the God of the Kitchen. There were also candles and red stickers for the God of Wealth, the Door God, and the Earth God.

On the night of the 30th of the new year, he stayed up all night to light the candle. Below him was a long red note.

Other than that, there was naturally food for the sacrifice. This was also the most important thing.

Actually, since he was young, Qin Lin had always had a doubt. That was, everyone had the same sacrifice. Be it the God of the Kitchen, the Door God, or the Earth God, they all used the same sacrifice at the ancestral hall.

In other words, after the God of the Kitchen finished eating, the God of Wealth would continue eating, and the others would then take turns eating? Wouldn't there be a lot of saliva?

If it were a person, who would be willing to eat something that had been eaten by another person? Let alone a God.

Was this a request for divine protection? Or a provocation?

But come to think of it, there were no Gods.

Nowadays, there are almost only rituals left in society. It was almost no different from those festivals where people joined in the fun.

After all, firecrackers could only be replaced by stepping on balloons. In many places, even candles and incense were used. Even the offerings used in some places were plastic models.

Sometimes, the people they brought home were rented.

He didn't know what made the country's biggest holiday become like this. There was no sense of the New Year.

Sometimes, Qin Lin missed the Chinese New Year when he was young. The smell of gunpowder, fragrance, candle smell, and delicious food… The intertwined smell and the human touch of family reunion were the true taste of the Chinese New Year.

Qin Lin watched as his mother busied herself with Zhao Moqing and pretended to say, "Mom, Moqing, I'll take a walk."

Lin Fen nodded and said, "Go. Leave these things to me and Moqing."

Only then did Qin Lin leave. He brought the tool room and found a rusty hoe that had not been used for many years. Then, he walked towards the path on the mountain behind.

Although there was no one farming in the village, every family's private field was still there.

Qin Lin's family's private field was on this mountain. It passed through a long path and flipped to the mountainside behind.

He had a plan to find an old field in his hometown to modify when he could obtain special soil or special fertilizer in the game.

When the time came, if someone who did not know the ways of the world insisted on asking how those games came about, he would push everything to this old field.

If someone really came to steal some soil to study, it would prove it to him.

Such soil with a +2 survival rate and a +1 genetic improvement rate would always exist and would not be consumed as long as it was not planted in this old field.

Qin Lin took half a day to reach his family's private field. He walked to the small piece in the corner and used the hoe to deal with some weeds in the old field.

It took some time before he looked around cautiously. Then he entered the game and brought out a bag of special soil.

He used half a bag of special soil to sprinkle it evenly on the old field, then stirred it evenly.

This might be a waste.

However, he was a cautious person. He would take more precautions.

Furthermore, two bags of this special soil could be dug up on the fourth floor of the Spring Mine. He could definitely dig up more later. It did not matter if some of it was wasted.

Chapter 287

When he was done, he entered the game again and brought out another bag of soil and some Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds. Then, he carried half a bag of special soil back to the old residence.

He wanted to bring this soil back to the villa openly.

When Lin Fen and Zhao Moqing saw Qin Lin return with two bags of soil, they looked at him in surprise.

"Xiao Lin, what did you do? You dug the soil on the mountain?"

"What did you do? Why are you covered in mud?"

Qin Lin couldn't explain and could only make up a story. "I went to the private field today and realized that the soil beside an old field was very different. The grass was especially dense and thick, so I dug some back to take a look."

"Some of the rice seeds I obtained previously have never been cultivated successfully. I want to try using this soil."

Lin Fen shook her head and said, "You still want to mess around during the New Year?"

"Do you need help?" Zhao Moqing asked.

She knew that her husband must have a motive for causing such trouble. After all, many things in the villa were caused by him.

Qin Lin nodded and instructed Zhao Moqing, "Help me find a small bowl and pour water and medicinal liquid. I want to soak the seeds. Ask Uncle Shuigen about the medicinal liquid. He should have it."

He naturally had to soak the Xiangshui Tribute Rice and disinfect it before urging it to sprout.

Ordinary rice seeds required an extremely high environmental temperature to germinate. However, the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds produced by this game were not affected by the season and temperature, so there was no need to control the temperature too much.

"Okay!" Zhao Moqing nodded and entered the kitchen to prepare.

After Qin Lin put down the two bags of special soil, he took the hoe and a bucket to the back of the old residence to dig soil and water it. Finally, he poured in some special soil from the game and stirred it evenly to simulate artificial fields.

When he was done, Zhao Moqing had already prepared something for him. He also took out the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds and soaked them in to disinfect them.

It could be planted in six hours.

In the afternoon, Qin Lin took out the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds and planted them in the soil in the bucket.

Under normal circumstances, rice seeds could germinate in two to four days.

Next, he just had to wait.

At night, when it was New Year's Eve, every house in the village was lit up. Qin Lin and Qin Ren's families also gathered.

After dinner, Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing were pulled to play cards by Qin Ren. It was a regular four-person bomb. He and Zhao Moqing were on one side, and Qin Ren and Liao Li were on the other. It was equivalent to a two-on-two couple game.

Beside him, his mother and Auntie Shuigen were chatting and praising each other's daughter-in-law. They were smiling as they watched the Spring Festival Gala. Then, the two of them complained that the Spring Festival Gala was not as good as before.

The two families did not return to their rooms until midnight.

The next day was the first day of the new year. After a series of sacrifices, it was also time for the families in the village to gather and chat with each other.

This year, when Qin Lin brought his mother and Zhao Moqing to the ancestral hall to offer sacrifices, he could clearly feel the difference.

There were envious and jealous gazes.

Very realistically, there were also people who had once made sarcastic remarks to their family who went forward to greet them warmly, as if nothing had happened in the past.

Unfortunately, he did not have any other abilities, but his ability to remember the past was not vague. On the surface, he could laugh with the other party, but in his heart, such a person was nothing to him.

On the other hand, most of them were still a little shameless. They would not come to greet him without shame, so he did not have to fake a smile to respond so disgustingly.

After the sacrifice on the first day of the New Year, the villagers who had rushed back from afar had no choice but to leave the village in a hurry. The originally lively village fell silent again.

After Qin Lin and Qin Ren finished their sacrifice, it was already afternoon. Naturally, they planned to return to Youcheng County.

Qin Lin placed the special soil he had taken out of the game into the trunk of the car. When he took out the bucket to plant the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds, his face immediately revealed surprise.

So soon?

Chapter 288

Qin Lin was more or less excited. The Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds that had not been successfully planted had germinated.

Even if there were only two seeds sprouting, it meant that the survival rate of the crops dug up in the mine +2, genetic improvement +1 soil was really effective for the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds.

Furthermore, it took two to four days for rice to germinate normally. It would take at least two days for it to germinate.

This seed had only been planted yesterday, but it had germinated in a day.

He wondered if the game seed itself germinated faster or if it was affected by the +1 attribute probability of genetic improvement.

However, one thing was certain, and that was that the Qin Lin Tribute Rice that he had been longing for finally had a chance to appear.

Although there were only two seeds sprouting in the bucket, and the survival rate was still pitifully low, the two sprouting seeds had survived and adapted to the geographical environment.

Then, he would be able to completely adapt to the geographical environment of Youcheng County with the seeds they cultivated.

He also had special soil that could allow more Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds to germinate and be cultivated in batches.

At that time, he could take out as much Xiangshui Tribute Rice as he wanted from the game.

Most importantly, his Xiangshui Tribute Rice was better and of a higher grade than the one on the other side of Xiangshui.

When the time came, everyone's jaw would drop, right?

Especially at Xiangshui.

Qin Lin was eager to try.

He carried the bucket back to the car and placed it in before getting in and driving back to Youcheng County with Qin Ren.

When he returned to Youcheng County, it was already evening. Qin Lin sent his mother and Zhao Moqing home and was in a hurry to drive to the villa.

He was going to soak and disinfect a batch of Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds so that he could go to the villa early tomorrow morning to treat the artificial water field with special soil and then plant the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds.

After parking the car in the parking lot, the security guard on duty at the door came out and greeted respectfully, "Boss!"

Qin Lin asked, "Did anything happen at the villa?"

The security guard immediately said, "Don't worry, Boss. Everything is normal in the villa."

"Okay!" Qin Lin nodded and took out a special soil and bucket from the car to enter the villa and head to the original hall.

After putting down the things, he took out the potion from the bar and soaked it in a batch of Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds that he had brought out of the game previously.

After that, he walked to the greenhouse where the watermelon seeds were cultivated.

In the greenhouse, one could see that there were already large watermelons lying on the watermelon vines.

At this rate, if nothing unexpected happened, when the 5,000 acres of land were contracted again, there would be seeds to plant the first batch of watermelons produced by the game.

He wondered if a Quality 2 seed would appear. The Quality 2 seed cultivated was different from the Quality 2 produced by the game. It was already adapted to the Quality 2 of the real land. Then, the melon planted would also be Quality 2 and would not degenerate.

This was something to look forward to.

Qin Lin then walked towards the two 500-year-old ginkgo trees to see how they were.

When he got close, he was dumbfounded.

When he looked at them before the New Year, these two ginkgo trees had only germinated again. After the New Year, the clear branches on the two trees had already extended for a long time.

The leaves that had just sprouted previously had already taken shape. They were still dense. Perhaps not long later, these two ginkgo trees would be lush.

This growth speed was definitely abnormal.

When he officially went to work tomorrow, he had to get Master Lin to write down how to treat these two ginkgo trees, including what method and raw materials he used.

This speed must have something to do with this. It was Master Lin's fault. It was not because of the Tree of Sound.

As Qin Lin thought about Master Lin's plan to take the blame, he returned to the original hall. As soon as he reached the backyard, he heard Yang Dong's voice. "Zhang Guizhu, did you like my Moments yesterday?"

Zhang Guizhu was combing the fur of a squirrel on the bar when she casually said, "I casually clicked on it."

Yang Dong immediately said, "Although you casually clicked on it, I'm so happy that you liked it."

Zhang Guizhu looked at Yang Dong awkwardly. "Then I'll cancel the like immediately."

When Qin Lin heard Yang Dong's flirting method, he felt a little awkward. There were still men in this society who played sweet talk with girls?

This was too outdated.

As the boss, he left from the other side sensibly and did not disturb the single couple.

It was already dark when he left the villa and returned home. Lin Fen and Zhao Moqing had already prepared dinner.

As soon as they finished dinner, he pulled Zhao Moqing back to his room. He locked the door and placed his finger on Zhao Moqing's lips. "You have to keep your promise tonight."

"Do you want to bully me that much?" Zhao Moqing looked at him with a red face. It was her first time playing such a trick, so she could only threaten him fiercely. "Be careful, I'll really bite you in half."

"I don't believe you can bear to." Qin Lin smiled proudly.

…

The next day was the second day of the new year. A few years ago, this was the day to go to his mother-in-law's for a meal. Now, it has become the day of work.

Youcheng County was lively again. Early in the morning, shops had already reopened on the streets.

Qinglin Villa was also reopened today.

Although Qin Lin had enjoyed Zhao Moqing's service last night, he had also woken up early in the morning. He looked at Zhao Moqing, who had woken up, with a teasing expression. "I knew you couldn't bear to. This is our first time, next time…"

Chapter 289

Without waiting for him to finish, Zhao Moqing kicked him shyly.

Qin Lin smiled proudly. Looking at Zhao Moqing's current appearance, she was as charming as possible. Compared to her past inexperience in love, he still preferred her current charming appearance.

He seemed to understand the ancient prime minister.

Zhao Moqing also got up immediately. The villa was reopening today and the employees were back. She had to go over and hold a morning meeting for the employees.

Some things had to be rearranged.

Qin Lin also got up and ate breakfast before heading to the warehouse.

The villa had reopened, and he wanted to resume the days of moving goods from the game to the villa.

When he transported the items to the villa, the villa was already busy. It was opening again, and the employees had to prepare a lot of things.

Not long after making the call, Chen Dabei brought people to move the goods.

"Boss." Chen Dabei walked up to Qin Lin respectfully.

It was obvious that he was glowing when he returned after the New Year. He was in better spirits than before.

After all, when he returned home this year, he had a different New Year. In the past, he had worked as a security guard and earned about 3,000 yuan a month. Not only did his wife think that he was incompetent, but the neighbors inevitably looked down on him, a small security guard.

However, this year, in addition to the basic salary + commission, there was also a special bonus from the boss. His salary directly exceeded 12,000 yuan. How many people in Youcheng County had this salary?

Furthermore, he was now the head of security of Qinglin Villa. Who did not know about Qinglin Villa?

Not only was his wife concerned about him during the new year, but she also called him Big Brother Bei when they messed around in bed at night.

The New Year had been nourishing for him.

Naturally, he also knew who had given him all this. He had to work harder for his boss this year.

"Move your things in!" Qin Lin handed the matter to Chen Dabei and went straight to the backyard of the original hall.

He first looked at the bucket he had brought back from the old residence. There were still only two plants sprouting inside.

In other words, other than these two seeds, the other seeds were still useless. Even with the special soil produced by the system, the survival rate of the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds was still pitifully low. It was no wonder that they could not be planted anywhere else.

Then, Qin Lin took the hoe and the special soil brought out from the game and began to modify the artificial water field.

First, he flipped the soil of the original paddy field with a hoe and diluted it. Then, he took out the bag of special soil that he had used half of previously and scattered it evenly into the paddy field before stirring it evenly.

This way, he could plant the Xiangshui Rice seeds. He would take out the seeds that had been soaked in disinfectant yesterday and plant them. He would wait to see how many seeds could germinate tomorrow.

When he was done with the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds, Master Lin, who had returned to work, rushed over. "Boss, come with me to see those two 500-year-old ginkgo trees."

Qin Lin naturally knew the reason for Master Lin's behavior. Clearly, he had also discovered that the two ginkgo trees were abnormal.

He pretended not to understand and followed Master Lin to the 500-year-old ginkgo tree.

Master Lin said in surprise, "Boss, the leaves of these two trees grow too quickly. They only germinated before the New Year. They've already grown to this extent."

Qin Lin immediately pretended to be surprised and said, "Master Lin, you're too amazing. How did you do it? Or did you use some special method to save these two trees?"

"What?" Master Lin was stunned.

He did not know either.

"Master Lin, think about it carefully. When the time comes, I'll also write your method of saving the tree on the stone tablet." Qin Lin did not give Master Lin a reaction as he walked out. "I'll get someone to get the stone tablet now. We should also get someone to build a wall around it to make a separate viewing area, just like the ginkgo tree viewing area planted by Li Shimin."

When Master Lin saw Qin Lin leave, he fell into his memories. "What method did I use? Could it be because he used cow dung and fertilizer to stir and fertilize it?"

The ginkgo tree was indeed growing very quickly. Today, it seemed like there were more leaves than yesterday. This wall was indeed going to be built. There was also the stone tablet story plan. It was a big pot for Master Lin.

Such a small project was simple. He could just hand it over to the company that built the pontoon bridge. The ancient pontoon bridge and pontoon pavilion built by that company were very good. It would definitely not be difficult to build a retro courtyard based on the Guanyin Zen Temple.

When he returned to the office, Qin Lin saw that tourists had already appeared in the villa.

At this time, they were naturally all local people in Youcheng County. On the second day of the New Year, the number of guests at the villa would definitely not be as many as usual.

It should be a few more days before the foreign tourists gradually arrive.

In the evening.

Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing went to the Zhao family's house for a meal. Although it was the 20th day of the new year, they still had to keep the tradition of eating at their mother-in-law's house.

Naturally, Lin Fen, the mother-in-law, was also invited.

Chen Xiao knew that her son-in-law and daughter were here. Her best friend and in-laws were alone, so she naturally invited them too. It was just nice to have more fun.

The next day, after delivering the goods, Qin Lin went to the artificial paddy field immediately.

Before arriving at the paddy field, he saw the sparse emerald green sprouts inside.

Just like the ones planted in the buckets previously, there was the help of special soil taken out of the game. Only a few Xiangshui Tribute Rice plants had sprouted.

However, there were also some sprouts in this artificial paddy field. Moreover, these sprouts had already triggered the mutation attribute that was suitable for the geographical environment. The seeds cultivated could be planted in batches.

Chapter 290

The harvest from the watermelon seeds and Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds was definitely something to be happy about.

Over the next few days, the company building the pontoon bridge in the reservoir entered again and continued to build it on the reservoir. At the same time, they began to send people to measure the land around the two ginkgo trees and complete the design of the courtyard in the ginkgo viewing area.

In a few days, the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings in the artificial paddy field grew day by day.

Normal rice seedlings took 9 to 12 days to grow.

The seeds of the Xiangshui Tribute Rice produced by this game still grew faster. In just a few days, they had already grown very high to the point where they could produce seedlings.

Qin Lin had no choice but to call Chen Dabei.

Chen Dabei was even more energetic this year. In a moment, he ran into the courtyard. "Boss, what do you want me to do?"

Qin Lin instructed, "Find Yu Shui and get a few people to help me develop a few more artificial paddy fields."

"Boss, don't worry. Leave it to me," Chen Dabei replied and rushed out of the backyard.

After Chen Dabei left, Qin Lin was about to leave the backyard when he heard a pair of noisy voices.

"Li Qing, your wife is pregnant again. Why didn't you stay at home to accompany her? Why did you follow me here?" Li Kai said in disdain. "I'm very familiar with Brother Qin. Do I need you to accompany me?"

Li Qing said in frustration, "Do you think I want to come with you? If the old man hadn't suddenly come to my house and found the four bottles of Qinglin Medicine Wine I hid, would I need to find such a lousy excuse?"

"Do you know how difficult it was for me? It wasn't easy for me to hide four bottles. The old man didn't leave a single bottle for me. He even said he wanted to settle scores with me. I seriously suspect that someone is complaining. Uncle, I suspect it's you now."

Li Kai did not deny it. "Half of my bottle of wine was stolen by your old man. I told you that you had one too because we were in trouble together. Who knew that you would be so unfilial to actually hide four bottles?"

"Why is there a fraud like you in our family?" Li Qing wanted to wail. "At least you still have half a bottle. I don't have a single drop left."

If the guy beside him was not his uncle, he would definitely beat him up.

When Qin Lin heard this conversation, he knew that it was the Li family's uncle and niece. These two people had actually come so early.

Moreover, Li Qing seemed very angry.

Li Kai clearly ignored his nephew, Li Qing. He had come to help cultivate watermelons and study their low-temperature genetic experiments, so he entered the backyard as soon as he arrived.

"Brother Qin," Li Kai said in surprise when he saw Qin Lin.

Qin Lin also smiled and greeted, "Brother Li, you're here so early."

"For the sake of the experiment, no. Your watermelons are the hope of my low-temperature genetic experiment," Li Kai said. He immediately entered the greenhouse to investigate the watermelons. He was clearly an experimental enthusiast.

After checking the greenhouse, he walked out, but his gaze was suddenly attracted by the rice seedlings in the artificial paddy field.

"This rice seedling!" Li Kai suddenly discovered something and squatted down beside the artificial water field in disbelief. He muttered, "This is barley rice. The rice leaves are two sharp points, and the texture is spread out… There's a knot pattern. It's actually identical to what I saw that time."

There were now 133 recorded super rice varieties in our country. These rice varieties were more or less different.

Ordinary people could not tell if it was rice, glutinous rice, or non-glutinous rice.

However, as an associate professor of agriculture, these were basic abilities. Furthermore, some especially rare breeds had to be clearly recognized.

Li Kai had happened to see a type of rice seedling that was identical to the one in front of him. Their director had originally worked hard to get that rice seedling to study, but unfortunately, it died quickly because it was not used to the environment.

Now what did he see?

Li Kai said in shock, "How can such rice seedlings appear here?"

Chapter 291

Li Kai could not believe it. He lay down again and carefully pushed the soil away. He carefully looked at the roots of the rice seedling and could not help but be shocked. "Brother Qin, this… this is the rice seedling of Xiangshui Tribute Rice?"

"Brother Li, you can tell?" Qin Lin could not help but be surprised.

When Li Kai heard this, he was a little unhappy. "Brother Qin, I'm an expert associate professor. Moreover, I've seen the rice seedlings of Xiangshui Tribute Rice before."

When Li Qing heard their conversation, he said in surprise, "Uncle, are you saying that this is Xiangshui Tribute Rice's seed?"

It was common knowledge that Xiangshui Tribute Rice could only be planted in Xiangshui. Furthermore, only that small area could be planted. It could not be planted anywhere else. Even if it was planted, the taste and nutrition were too different from the original.

This was also the reason why Xiangshui Tribute Rice was especially expensive. 90% of the rich could not eat it.

Now, his uncle was saying that the rice in Qin Lin's paddy field was Xiangshui Tribute Rice?

Li Kai explained, "This is indeed Xiangshui Tribute Rice's seed. Brother Qin, how did you do it? Logically speaking, the geographical environment of the city doesn't meet the growth conditions of Xiangshui Tribute Rice at all. It's even impossible for seeds to germinate."

Qin Lin had long thought of this answer and immediately explained, "Didn't they exchange Xiangshui Tribute Rice for my medicinal wine? I asked the other party to get some seeds and wanted to try cultivating them myself. My hometown has a very special old field, so I wanted to see if I could use it to cultivate this seed."

When Li Qing heard this, he recalled what Qin Lin had said previously and could not help but explain, "I remember now. Qin Lin, your watermelon seed seemed to have sprouted in that old field and was accidentally discovered (Chapter 138), right?"

"Yes!" Qin Lin nodded.

The reason he had made up before was now rounded.

Li Kai looked at his nephew and asked, "What's going on? What old field? And why is it connected to the watermelon?"

Li Qing explained, "Qin Lin has an old field at home. These watermelon seeds were left in that old field. Qin Lin discovered them when they germinated in winter."

"Qin Lin, you're smart. That old field can make the watermelon genes mutate and grow in the middle of winter. There must be something special about it. There might be an unexpected harvest when planting other seeds. Didn't the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds grow?"

Seeing that Li Qing was so cooperative, Qin Lin also smiled and said, "That's right. When I returned to the old residence for the new year, I dug some soil in the old field to cultivate. I realized that this seed could germinate, and the germinating time was even shorter. I dug out two big bags of soil and mixed it into this artificial field to experiment. You saw the result."

Li Kai was completely surprised to hear their words. "Brother Qin, the soil in your old field might not be simple. It might be a rare and special soil."

China was vast and had many resources. The land was different, and there were many types of soil. The most common ones were black soil, red soil, yellow soil, pine soil, sand soil, and so on.

However, some of these soil were suitable for planting, and some were not.

Black soil was very suitable for planting, while red soil was more barren.

Other than this soil, there was some rare soil. This soil might be affected by some environment or weather, climate, temperature, humidity, and so on. It contained special elements.

Some of these special elements could promote crops. For example, there were more or less special elements in the soil where they were specially planted.

It was also because of the existence of these special elements that those crops were very different and became precious and rare. Without those elements, the soil elsewhere could not be replicated and planted. Even if it was replicated and planted, it would degenerate.

Naturally, there were also some special elements that were harmful. For example, the land that had been irradiated and the soil of the heavy metal elements. The crops that were planted could not be eaten by humans.

Without a word, Li Kai reached into the soil and pulled out some to rub on his palm.

Brother Qin's soil was undoubtedly beneficial. After all, it had already allowed the watermelon seed gene to survive in winter and taste better. Now, it could also nurture the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings.

Li Qing looked at the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings and said, "Qin Lin, doesn't this mean that you can plant Xiangshui Tribute Rice here in the future? I wonder what the final harvest will be like."

"We'll only know when it's planted." Qin Lin had to answer this question in an uncertain manner even if he knew the outcome.

After all, it was not that there were no other places where the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings had been cultivated, but the rice harvested in the end was too inferior.

Cultivating rice seedlings was only the first step. Harvesting was the second step.

"Qin Lin, if it's not worse than that Xiangshui Tribute Rice, you can't forget your friends." Li Qing immediately played the emotional card.

That was the Xiangshui Tribute Rice. He had to enjoy the benefits of a favorable position, right?

"You only know how to eat." Li Kai pushed Li Qing away angrily and said to Qin Lin, "Brother Qin, can I analyze the soil composition and see what elements are in it?"

For the agricultural expert, in addition to the study of crops, the study of crop soil was also an ability.

"Of course, Brother Li. Help me see if there's anything wrong with this soil." Qin Lin naturally knew that there were elements in this soil that increased the survival rate of crops and improved genes.

Chapter 292

However, he had to put on a good show in this situation.

Wasn't there a lyric saying: I'll do my best to cooperate with you?

He needed witnesses like Li Kai and Li Qing. Li Kai also had a sense of accomplishment from analyzing, right?

After receiving Qin Lin's agreement, Li Kai pulled Li Qing into the hall. "Help me move the equipment."

With that, he pulled Li Qing to the bar and took out the key to the storage room behind the bar.

When he went back previously, he had placed the instrument inside and Qin Lin had also given him the key to the lock.

He opened the door.

The uncle and nephew took out the wrapped equipment and instruments.

Li Kai moved the instruments and props that tested the soil and began to prepare.

He studied crop genetic low-temperature experiments. Crop planting inevitably involved soil problems. Naturally, there were instruments and tools to test and analyze soil in his laboratory.

Li Kai fiddled with the instruments and tools and took out a few utensils to the artificial field in the backyard to take some soil back to the hall.

This time, it was much harder to study the soil than to determine if the duck egg was real.

In the evening, when Qin Lin arrived at the hall, Li Kai was still studying the equipment. Seeing this, he asked Li Kai curiously, "Brother Li, haven't you analyzed it yet?"

Li Kai frowned. "Not so fast. The soil analysis results will have to wait until tomorrow morning. The key is that I found a special element in this soil. It's amazing that I couldn't detect what it was for a while."

When Qin Lin saw this, he could only shake his head and let Li Kai continue his research. He went to the reservoir to check on the situation.

The pontoons were getting better and better built. Some of the pavilions that had been built at the pontoon junctions could be used for people to rest.

When a water lily seed appeared in the game one day, he could also get some around the pavilion. Coupled with the beautiful willow leaf duckweed, it would definitely be an indescribable beauty.

The sky gradually darkened.

In the original hall.

Master Lin carried the food out of the kitchen and saw that Li Kai was still fiddling with the soil in front of the instruments. He said, "Mr. Li, you can eat now."

Li Kai had always been eating Master Lin's food at the villa and was very polite. "Master Lin, I'll wash my hands before eating."

Master Lin asked curiously, "Mr. Li, you've been fiddling with the soil. Is there anything special about that soil?"

Li Kai did not hide anything and said with a smile, "The soil in your boss's artificial paddy field is very special. Study it."

"Oh." Master Lin entered the kitchen thoughtfully.

He took a notebook from his pocket and wrote on it.

It was the information his boss had asked him to write about how to save the two 500-year-old ginkgo trees.

However, he really did not know and did not specially get it. He just stirred the cow dung and fertilizer as usual. The tree had suddenly come alive before the year.

He wrote it truthfully, but he felt that it was very unreliable to write about cow dung mixed with fertilizer.

If this method worked, it wouldn't have failed so long ago. There had to be a reason. It might not be his credit.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. His boss had given him a mission, so he could not fool his boss. Therefore, he wrote: Cow dung, fertilizer stirring, and soil from an artificial water field.

That's right. Mr. Li had said that the soil was special. He wrote that down. In the future, when his boss asked, he would say that the soil was special. It was all because of the soil.

Master Lin suddenly felt that he was very smart.

The night passed.

The next day, Qin Lin transported the things he had moved out of the game to the villa and headed to the original hall.

Li Kai had also continued to fiddle with the soil in front of the instrument early in the morning. Clearly, he had yet to analyze the soil.

Qin Lin walked into the artificial paddy field.

He had already asked Chen Dabei to bring people to develop the new artificial paddy field.

In the next day or two, the paddy field would be developed and transplanted.

For those who needed to refine seedlings before they came out, it was best to choose the three-leaf stage for transplantation in order to thrive. If it was only because the one-leaf stage did not grow, the output would be low after planting.

For those who needed to refine seedlings before they came out, it was best to choose the three-leaf stage for transplantation in order to thrive. If it was only because the one-leaf stage did not grow, the output would be low after planting.

However, this was only one of the reasons. Before transplanting, he had to try to soften the soil as much as possible to avoid destroying the roots during the transplantation and causing the rice seedlings to die.

Qin Lin was naturally very diligent in this aspect. After all, there were not many Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings.

After spending some time dealing with the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings, he received a call from Chen Li and picked up immediately. "Hello, Deputy Chen."

Chen Li's laughter sounded. "Boss Qin, the procedures for your 5,000 acres of land contract have been completed. You can go directly to the Land Bureau to settle it. I'll get Zhong Lei to wait for you there."

When Qin Lin received this news, he immediately went to the county and arrived at the Land Bureau.

As soon as the car stopped, Zhong Lei smiled and went forward. "Boss Qin, we've already informed Deputy Chen. There's no need to wait in line. Just follow me to the office and settle it directly."

"Yes!" Qin Lin nodded.

Everyone knew that it was very troublesome to run procedures sometimes, especially when there were all kinds of queues in the business window for review. Simple things took a few days.

However, this was only for most people. Some people did not need to queue at all and settled it quickly.

Last year, someone had secretly taken photos of such incidents and posted them online, causing a strong discussion. They even split into two parties and scolded each other.

One faction naturally emphasized that it had to be fair and that there could not be such an improper style. The other faction was a special force that was different from the target group. It was impossible to deal with it absolutely fairly.

Chapter 293

In the end, that news was suppressed. No one was dealt with.

The official explanation was that the person who had been secretly photographed was the chairman of a large corporation in the city. Coincidentally, there was a cooperation project with the official that the leader had personally approached.

He did not know if this announcement was true, but one thing was certain. There could not be absolute fairness in this world.

If you went to the bank to do a business, you would have to queue for a number. The salesperson would even speak coldly to you, but your boss would have to receive the bank president with a smile.

This was the norm in society. There was really no absolute right or wrong.

Qin Lin was greeted by Chen Li and accompanied by Zhong Lei. He almost quickly completed the relevant procedures and obtained the contract document.

In other words, from today onwards, Qinglin Villa would have another 5,000 acres of land.

When Qin Lin returned to the villa's office and put the contract away, Chen Dabei reported to him, "Boss, the paddy fields you asked me to develop have been developed. They're all fertilized."

"Let's go. Bring me to take a look." Qin Lin nodded and followed Chen Dabei to the artificial paddy field.

The paddy field developed by Chen Dabei was not far from the reservoir, so it was convenient to irrigate.

It could be seen that Chen Dabei had developed the paddy field very carefully. The field was very sturdy, and the soil and fertilizer were stirred very evenly and delicately.

Qin Lin instructed Chen Dabei in satisfaction, "Bring people to plant the rice seedlings from the original paddy field in these paddy fields. After that, develop more artificial paddy fields."

The special soil brought out by the game would not consume all the special elements in an instant. After this batch was planted, more rice seedlings could be cultivated later on.

"Okay, Boss!" Chen Dabei replied and called for people to go to the original artificial field. He carefully moved the Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings out and planted them in the newly developed paddy fields.

Chen Dabei was very attentive. He only knew that he had to do what his boss had instructed him to do well, but he did not know what these rice seedlings he had planted represented and how big a sensation they would cause in the future.

When Qin Lin returned to the original hall, Li Kai had also gotten up from the equipment.

"Brother Li, are you done analyzing?" Qin Lin asked.

Li Kai shook his head and said, "That soil does contain special elements. We can only get a rough idea of their function. The exact elemental information is unknown. We need better instruments to analyze it."

"Besides, that will take a long time. I don't have a clue about my own experiment. There's no need to continue to force it."

"Brother Qin, there's good news and bad news now. The good news is that this soil does carry elemental substances that can affect the genes of crops."

"It's just that this specific effect hasn't been studied clearly about the soil element, so I can't judge. However, from the situation of the watermelon and Xiangshui Tribute Rice seedlings, the effect must not be weak."

"The bad news is that those elements are gradually fading. As we plant them, they will quickly be exhausted. In the future, planting things on them will be no different from normal."

"Many such soils have been discovered. As soon as they appear, they are taken by some large company's laboratory or official laboratory to cultivate new crops. Perhaps some of the new crops in the world have the credit of such soil."

"Therefore, Brother Qin, if anyone wants to buy your soil in the future, don't agree. Keep it for yourself and don't plant anything on this soil to consume those special elements."

"You'd better plant something valuable. If you're lucky, you might be able to produce a few more new varieties of genetic breakthrough. Then you'll be rich."

"Take me to your old field when you have time to see if you can find anything else."

"I see." Qin Lin nodded.

He was really impressed by Li Kai. He had really analyzed something, especially the attributes consumed by the soil as it was planted.

This was the power of science.

Moreover, according to Li Kai, it was only natural for him to take out more seeds in the future, right?

Chapter 294

After the 15th day of the New Year, the desire for tourists to travel increased noticeably.

The number of daily customers in Qinglin Villa also began to slowly recover.

However, it would still take some time to recover the 3,000 visitors a day. It was not the peak period for tourists to travel after the New Year.

In the villa.

After the procedures for contracting 5,000 acres of land were completed, Sun Ming's Youcheng First Construction Company entered again. The manor, villa, and ranch were built at the same time.

Zhao Moqing pulled Qin Lin into a sealed road in the villa with a happy expression.

Not long after, fields of flowers came into view.

This was the villa's comprehensive Sea of Flowers.

Looking inside, the various flowers planted were neatly colored and arranged without monotony. They were very beautiful.

This was a Sea of Flowers that had just been planted. It would be even more spectacular and beautiful in the future.

There were also workers working in the Sea of Flowers. Some flowers could be planted after the new year.

The most troublesome thing about creating an integrated Sea of Flowers was the different flowers and the different planting seasons.

Qin Lin hugged Zhao Moqing from behind and whispered into her ear, "You suddenly came to see this Sea of Flowers. Do you really want to take wedding photos with me? This Sea of Flowers is almost completed."

Zhao Moqing said, "I just brought you here to inspect the Sea of Flowers project."

However, she was clearly betrayed by her delighted gaze.

After all, Qin Lin had decided to build this Sea of Flowers because she wanted to take wedding photos in such a place.

When the time came, taking wedding photos in this Sea of Flowers would be one of the happiest and most unforgettable things in her life.

Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing inspected the Sea of Flowers and came out. They passed by the artificial paddy fields near the reservoir. Xiangshui Tribute Rice grew in those paddy fields.

"Qin Lin, can these really grow Xiangshui Tribute Rice?" Zhao Moqing asked expectantly.

She ate Xiangshui Tribute Rice every day, so she naturally knew that if Qinglin Villa could plant Xiangshui Tribute Rice themselves, it would cause a sensation.

"Yes, when the time comes, we can't use the name Xiangshui Tribute Rice anymore. We have to give ourselves a name." Qin Lin smiled and nodded.

He had no need to hide it from Zhao Moqing.

"Let's call it Qinglin Tribute Rice. It's simple and clear," Zhao Moqing said as she held Qin Lin's arm and continued, "Let's go to the duck house to take a look at the floating bridge."

"Let's go!" Qin Lin nodded.

The construction of the duck house's pontoon ended yesterday.

Chen Dabei led the security guards to run dozens of rounds but did not find any problems.

Now, the company that built the pontoon bridge had also moved to the two 500-year-old ginkgo trees to build the ginkgo viewing house.

The duck house area was also completely different from the beginning. There was a special scenic stone road that circled the shore of the reservoir for tourists to walk on.

There was also a specially built retro art fence between the duck house and the gravel road. It was for safety and to stop the ducks from running out.

The gravel road connected the two entrances to the pontoon.

Qin Lin brought Zhao Moqing up the pontoon from an entrance and walked to a pavilion.

Zhao Moqing looked at the surrounding scenery with bright eyes. She was attracted by the duckweed that was produced by the system. The snow-white ducks interwoven in the duckweed were really like a painting.

She couldn't help but say to Qin Lin, "Hubby, you're really amazing."

Qin Lin said proudly, "Would I let you wet the bed sheets if I wasn't amazing?"

Zhao Moqing blushed.

Recently, she had also realized that Qin Lin was torturing her more and more.

With that in mind, she glared at Qin Lin fiercely. "I'm being serious!"

She did admire Qin Lin for creating such a beautiful scene with just a simple reservoir, duck, and pontoon bridge.

Who could do this? Even the most professional scenic design masters couldn't do such a thing, right?

She believed that the scenery in front of her would not lose to the Triangular Plum Blossom Sea.

The two of them strolled around the pontoon before Zhao Moqing returned to the office to work.

Qin Lin also headed to the floating bridge beside the duck house. He could see large breeding nets in this area, but there were no fish inside.

The duck house and pontoon had been built, and the accompanying fish should be ready.

Qin Lin pondered.

This time, he was going to take out more than 800 Quality 2 and Quality 1 wild fish in the game.

Moreover, there were too many Quality 2 fish this time. After all, after the fishing rod was upgraded, he could catch more than 20 Quality 2 wild fish every day.

These had to be transported several times even in a small truck. They could not be transported directly to the villa.

After all, 20 to 30 catties of wild goods were rare. It was rare for those rich people outside to eat them. Now that hundreds of wild goods were taken out at the same time, it would definitely cause a sensation.

Therefore, he told Zhao Moqing that he was going to Ming City to buy fish and spent an hour and a half driving to Sand City.

Sand City was originally a county city, but it had already been evacuated and became a district of Ming City.

After Qin Lin arrived in Sand City, he went online to search and temporarily rented a relatively remote warehouse in the suburbs.

After renting the warehouse, Qin Lin took out his phone and went online. He found four fisheries in Ming City and ordered 100,000 bass, black fish, flat fish, black carp, and 3,000 adult fish.

These were also what he wanted to buy. They could be sent back to the villa with the wild fish that the game had taken out.

After placing the order and filling in the temporary rental warehouse address, he paid the deposit and added his contact number. He agreed to deliver the goods at noon tomorrow. After that, he drove back to Youcheng County.

Chapter 295

The next day.

After Qin Lin sent the things in the game to the villa, he immediately headed to Sand City and bought large plastic containers for fish at the Sand City market.

After Qin Lin sent the things in the game to the villa, he immediately headed to Sand City and bought large plastic containers for fish at the Sand City market.

It was better to be safe than sorry.

After confirming that there were no problems, he entered the game with the plastic containers of fish he had bought. He scooped up the fish stored in the game and placed them in the containers one by one. When one container was filled, he brought it out of the game and replaced it with a new one.

After moving more than 800 Quality 2 and 1 wild fish out of the game, he took out his phone and called Zhao Liyuan.

Since all the fish had been moved out of the game, they naturally had to be transported back. When Zhao Liyuan brought people to Sand City, the fish he had ordered should have arrived too. They could be transported back together.

Youcheng County.

Zhao Liyuan was explaining to a few teachers at the convoy's base. "Bring more new people along during this period of time. You can't neglect Qinglin Ketchup's business at all."

This was because Qinglin Food Company had contracted the transportation business to their transport team. As Qinglin Ketchup Factory expanded, their convoy also expanded and recruited many new people.

Zhao Liyuan picked up Qin Lin's call immediately. "President Qin, what can I do for you?"

His attitude was respectful. After all, the convoy was completely relying on Qinglin Ketchup to make a living.

"Bring some people to Sand City. I want to transport 100,000 fish seedlings and 3,000…" Qin Lin told Zhao Liyuan what he wanted him to transport and asked him to estimate the number of people needed himself.

Zhao Li did not dare to hesitate. He hung up and personally led his men to Sand City. At the same time, he received a message about the location of the warehouse.

When Zhao Liyuan brought them to the warehouse, he saw that there were already transport vehicles parked inside. The breeding boxes containing fish had been unloaded.

Those were the fish seedlings and adult fish Qin Lin had ordered.

Zhao Liyuan got out of the car and went up to Qin Lin immediately. "President Qin, are these fish?"

Qin Lin nodded and instructed, "Transport them back. There's still more in the warehouse."

"Okay." Zhao Liyuan nodded. After the fish delivery cars left, he instructed the people he brought to move all the fish into the truck.

In the beginning, the fish and fish seedlings ordered by Qin Lin were nothing.

When Zhao Liyuan brought people into the warehouse and saw the fish in the plastic containers, he was shocked. "F*ck… These fish."

Many of the fish in those containers were unbelievably big. They were probably 20 to 30 catties, right?

The fish President Qin bought were too shocking.

When Zhao Liyuan's subordinates saw these fish, they also looked incredulous.

"Captain Zhao, these fish are so big."

"I've never seen a fish this big. And so many at once."

"This seems to be a wild big item!"

"…"

Qin Lin had expected these people's reactions. Other than the fact that he had personally caught these fish in the game and looked calm all day…

With so many wild goods, even a tycoon like Chen Shengfei would find it difficult to calm down.

While Zhao Liyuan was surprised, he immediately shouted at his subordinates, "Hurry up and work. Be careful when you move the goods."

After moving all the fish into the car, Qin Lin also drove out of Sand City with Zhao Liyuan's convoy and spent more than an hour returning to Youcheng County.

When he was about to reach the villa, he called Chen Dabei and asked him to bring people to wait for the fish.

Therefore, when the fish was transported to the reservoir, Chen Dabei was already waiting with his men. When the car stopped, he went forward to help Zhao Liyuan and the others unload the goods.

"Boss, there are so many wild goods?" Chen Dabei climbed into a truck and was shocked to see the wild goods inside.

After some time, the fish that were transported back were moved into the reservoir.

Qin Lin walked to the pontoon. Chen Dabei had already brought people to put fish in the breeding boxes in different areas.

Because the willow leaf duckweed produced by the game had the attribute of purifying water, the water in this area was already very clear. One could clearly see the fish swimming in the water, especially those wild goods of Quality 2. They were swimming very vigorously.

Furthermore, when the wild goods of Quality 2 gathered and swam together, it actually gave off a spectacular feeling.

Perhaps this would also be a very attractive view.

After all, such big goods were rare, but they could be seen in groups here.

Yang Dong walked onto the pontoon and arrived beside Qin Lin. "Boss, the fermented duck dung is here."

The duck keepers were already pouring fermented duck dung into the water with dustpans.

As soon as the duck feces entered the water and spread out, they saw dense fish swimming over quickly and snatching the food.

Especially when the big fish squeezed past, the other fish scattered. Some impatient big fish stuck half their bodies out of the water and smashed the other fish in shock.

This scene was very interesting again.

Qin Lin asked Yang Dong, "Do you think people will feed the fishes? Many scenic spots with fish have tourists feeding them, right?"

"There should be!" Yang Dong nodded, then asked, "Boss, then we'll provide duck dung feeding service? Will we charge?"

"…" Qin Lin was stunned by the question.

Chapter 296

What was this guy thinking?

The tourists had to feed the ducks with the villa's supply of food because the ducks might get sick otherwise.

Did tourists even have to buy their own duck dung to feed the fish? To think this guy could think of this.

This was even more speechless than the 25 yuan corn experience, okay?

After a while, Chen Dabei also came up to the pontoon and reported, "Boss, the fish have been thrown in."

Qin Lin nodded and instructed Yang Dong, "The preparations here are almost done. Bring some people to wrap up and see if there's anything else to prepare. If there's no problem, cooperate with Chen Dabei to hang up the signboard, road signs, warning signs, and so on."

"Don't worry, Boss. I'll handle it." Yang Dong immediately promised. He was happier than anyone else that the floating bridge was open.

Because he was the intern supervisor of this pontoon viewing area, he was in charge of the ducks, fish, and pontoons. He was waiting for this place to open and become official.

Qin Lin left after giving the instructions. Yang Dong, Chen Dabei, and the others got busy.

Time passed. When the sun began to set, the tourists who had to stay behind to cook in the evening also began to head to the buffet area of the villa restaurant to register.

Chen Xue also followed her parents, brother, and sister-in-law to the restaurant.

This was the third time she had come to Qinglin Villa to play.

The first time was when he accidentally discovered Qinglin Villa. The second time was when he brought his university classmates (Chapter 35 and 127).

This time, he came with his family.

He would not get tired of the Sea of Flowers in Qinglin Villa no matter how many times he came. On his third visit, he took many photos and videos with his family.

"Xiao Xue, hurry up. You're still playing with your phone when you're walking."

"Coming."

Chen Xue had just finished photoshopping a photo and responded with a smile. Just as she was about to follow her family, she saw two security guards standing by a stone road with a sign.

That got her attention.

If she remembered correctly, there were also roadblocks when she passed by today.

"The floating bridge viewing area?" Chen Xue asked one of the security guards curiously, "May I ask if this is a newly opened area?"

When the security guard saw that it was a beautiful tourist, he nodded. "Yes, it just opened."

After the two security guards left, Chen Xue could not help but be surprised and curious.

A new area had opened in Qinglin Villa?

This sign had just been set up. No tourists had entered, right?

Chen Xue could not suppress her curiosity and walked in. She might be the first tourist to experience this viewing area.

She walked toward the gravel path, forgetting her family's shout.

Chen Xue walked in along the stone road and saw a row of duck houses made of bamboo.

Although the duck house was neatly built and had some beauty, such buildings were not unheard of in other scenic spots.

However, after taking a few steps inside, Chen Xue saw a snow-white figure spreading its elegant wings. Its appearance was too beautiful.

"Swans?" Chen Xue was a little surprised. Did Qinglin Villa already have swans?

As she was thinking, she saw the elegant swan quack and splash into the water.

"?" Chen Xue was immediately stunned. Was it a duck, not a swan?

Was this a joke?

How could there be such a big duck? It was bigger than a swan.

Chen Xue curiously passed by the duck house. Then, her eyes quickly widened in disbelief.

The entire pontoon viewing area was imprinted in her eyes.

Under the setting sun, how beautiful was the duckweed in that area?

That area was filled with Quality 2 willow leaf duckweed.

Beauty +2, attractiveness +2, and a higher artistic conception were given to it by the beauty of the setting sun. Chen Xue was deeply attracted.

She did not expect Qinglin Villa to have such scenery other than the Sea of Flowers.

Instinctively, she picked up her phone and took photos of the beautiful scenery in front of her.

However, when she looked at the video taken by her phone, it was actually as artistic as the video taken by the Sea of Flowers. It made her addicted to this scenery.

The setting sun was beautiful, and the clear pool was filled with duckweed! This was a completely different beautiful scenery from the Triangular Plum Blossom Sea.

No, she had to share this beautiful scenery with her best friends in the dormitory and seduce them to death.

Chapter 297

Chen Xue was surprised by the video taken by her phone and decisively sent it to her university dormitory group to share this beautiful scene. Then, she could not wait to get on the pontoon.

The pontoon bridge was retro and artistic. It matched the floating duckweed very well, especially the pavilion above. It would definitely be beautiful to sit inside and take a selfie with the beautiful duckweed on her back.

Chen Xue thought about it and walked towards a pavilion. In the end, she bumped into Chen Dabei and a security guard holding a sign that said 'Do Not Climb Over the Railing'.

"Who are you? It's not open yet. Why did you sneak in?" The security guard frowned at Chen Xue.

Chen Xue was a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry. When I saw that there was no one around, I couldn't help but come up."

Chen Dabei hurriedly smiled and said, "It's fine. Since you're here, take a good look. We're going to charge an entrance fee soon. Remember not to feed the ducks."

With that, he did not forget to pat the head of the security guard beside him. "Go over there and hang up the sign. After you're done, help Master Ma connect the wires and install the lights."

Didn't this guy need a lesson?

What did he mean by tourists sneaking up?

The fact that the other party could enter meant that it was their own negligence.

They, the security guards, were just service people.

He felt that he had to pay attention to this problem too. He will say it at the morning meeting tomorrow. He could not let the security department embarrass the scenic area in terms of quality. Otherwise, how could he face his boss?

Chen Xue heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the two security guards leave.

She had indeed sneaked in. Fortunately, the security guard of Qinglin Villa did not blame her.

"Quack!"

A duck's cry attracted Chen Xue's attention.

She went to the railing immediately and saw a big snow-white duck playing between the duckweed water.

This time, she saw it more clearly. The duck in front of her was really too big. It was more than 40 catties, right?

Furthermore, its feathers were abnormally snow-white, as if they were spotless. Its mouth and neck were closer to a swan's, and its arc was beautiful.

She had seen swans in university because there were a few swans in the university's artificial lake, but this duck actually surpassed those swans in size, appearance, and posture.

She even saw a pride in this duck that even a swan did not have.

No one would believe that this was a duck in front of them…

"Quack."

Well! The duck seemed to have proven its identity with its cries again.

Chen Xue took out her phone again and took a video of the snow-white duck. The beautiful snow-white duck was also very beautiful with the pool full of duckweed.

She opened the university dormitory group again and planned to share this video in the group. Her best friends had definitely never seen such a big duck, right?

When she opened the group chat, she realized that it was already filled with denunciations of her:

"What a beautiful place? This place won't be inferior to the Sea of Flowers in Qinglin Villa."

"Xue Xue, where did you secretly go to play again?"

"Xue Xue is just heartless. She secretly goes to good places alone and takes videos to tempt us."

"That's right. She did this with Qinglin Villa before. Now she's doing this again."

"Xue Xue, I'll give you a chance. Tell us about this place and help us book a room. Otherwise, there won't be a place for you in the dormitory when school starts."

When Chen Xue saw these words, she smiled and typed, "This is Qinglin Villa."

The group became lively again.

"I don't believe it!"

"I don't believe it either. It's not like we haven't been to Qinglin Villa before."

"That's right, Xue Xue. Hurry up and tell me the truth."

Chen Xue smiled and sent another message. "It's really Qinglin Villa. I'll share another video with you. Have you seen such a beautiful duck?"

With that, he sent the video of the beautiful snow-white duck to the group.

The girls in the group opened the video and felt that Chen Xue was fooling them.

Was this a duck?

How could a duck be so big?

Was it not a swan?

"Quack!"

As the duck cried, the girls in the group fell silent.

"Is it really a duck?"

"Really? There's such a big duck?"

"Why do I feel like it's prettier than a swan?"

"Na Na, you didn't feel wrong."

"I feel so too."

"…"

Chen Xue had already put away her phone again and was walking leisurely on the pontoon. Speaking of the impact of the beautiful scenery, this pontoon viewing area seemed to be inferior to the three triangular plums in the center.

However, in this special environment, the water, the bridge, the duck, and the setting sun were not inferior when combined. There was even a vivid poetic feeling.

She realized that there was more than one of those big ducks. Two of them were actually swimming side by side, as if they were snuggling together. There was actually a group of little ducks behind them, looking very harmonious.

There were also groups of snow-white ducks elsewhere. Although they were smaller, they were still very beautiful.

Chen Xue followed the pontoon bridge and walked slowly and quietly alone. She looked at the beautiful scenery and took photos and videos. She felt that it was really a pleasure.

If she could find a boyfriend this year, she would definitely bring him here to hold hands.

As she walked, Chen Xue suddenly made a new discovery. She saw many fish. They seemed to be fish raised in the villa, right?

Fish were naturally not surprising. It was not like she had never seen them before. However, when she saw the black carp weighing more than 30 catties swim past the floating duckweed, it was different.

She immediately thought of the rumored wild goods in the villa. She had never eaten these wild goods, but she had seen them. It was exactly the same.

Chapter 298

But now, the first thing she thought of was not to eat the big fish, because soon, the second big fish appeared, then the third, the fourth… They appeared consecutively.

She could only say that the feeling of seeing so many large fishes was shocking. She hurriedly picked up her phone again and took photos of the fish.

The Internet said that such wild goods were very rare. Rich people might not even be able to eat them.

The dense school of fish in front of her made her feel that the Internet was full of nonsense. Who said that this wild fish was rare? She could not even count how many there were.

Chen Xue sent the video to the group for the third time.

This time, the girls in the group silently clicked on the video. When they saw the shocking scene of the large fishes wandering around, they sent a message in unison:

"Xue Xue, please wait for me at Qinglin Villa."

"Xue Xue, please wait for me at Qinglin Villa +1."

"Xue Xue, please wait for me at Qinglin Villa +2."

"…"

Chen Xue looked at these messages and looked at the floating bridge viewing area in front of her in surprise. The boss of Qinglin Villa was really impressive. The originally inconspicuous reservoir was actually given a new life like this.

In the end, when she received a call from her family asking where she was, she could only leave reluctantly. She went to the restaurant and found her family.

"Xiao Xue, come over quickly. I want to show you something." A woman called out to Chen Xue.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?" Chen Xue ran over.

Her sister-in-law took out two very big eggs and said, "Guess what eggs these are?"

Chen Xue looked at the eggs in her sister-in-law's hand in confusion. It was bigger than chicken eggs and duck eggs. It was almost 10 centimeters tall and 6 centimeters in diameter, right?

"Duck eggs?" Chen Xue thought of something and asked subconsciously.

"Xue Xue, how did you know?" Sister-in-law asked in surprise, "At first, when I saw the sign that said 'Beauty Enhancement Duck Egg', I couldn't believe it. One egg costs 100 yuan. It's said to be able to nourish and beautify the face. Moreover, there's a duck egg as big as an ostrich egg there. It costs 1,000 yuan each. I wonder if that egg is real. What duck can give birth to such a big egg?"

When Chen Xue heard this, her expression was clearly a little off.

Because she knew what duck could lay eggs that big.

…

Qin Lin received a court notice from Senior Brother Chu in his office. It was naturally the case of Chun Chun's defamation last year.

To be honest, if not for the order this time, he would have forgotten about this slander.

However, this notice did not mean that the case was over. It was a notice from the court that Chun Chun had already appealed.

In other words, the case had entered the process again.

This was also the reason why many people eventually chose to settle privately on cases in this area. A judgment process would originally take a lot of time, and it might even take more than half a year to come to a conclusion.

However, this might not be the final outcome. When it came to a shameless appeal, it would have to be delayed again.

Wasn't this the case of a famous Internet celebrity slandering his boss and a certain song?

Neither case came to a conclusion.

A certain song case even shamelessly chose the last day of the appeal period to appeal. It made all the onlookers helpless.

Many times, after a rights case, ordinary people would have to run for their lives and go bankrupt in a lawsuit.

Therefore, in the end, they were exhausted. Even if it was unfair, they could only admit it and could not afford to keep fighting.

Clearly, Chun Chun wanted to play this game too.

Senior Brother Chu said, "The other party is very smart. She didn't appeal with the sentence of defamation. Instead, she appealed with the ridiculous excuse of her private privacy being leaked. I'll help you continue to sue her."

Qin Lin also replied, "Thank you, Senior Brother Chu."

He had to say that Internet celebrities were really similar.

It seemed that the other Internet celebrity was also playing this trick. After slandering his boss, he used an unrelated name to appeal. His motive was self-evident.

For example, Chun Chun had nothing to lose even if she lost the unrelated appeal about her private privacy being leaked. If it was accepted and she won, in an attempt to win back the fan, she could take this appeal judgment and send it to others to say that she had won.

Some brainless fans would only see that she had won the appeal. They would not see what she had won in the appeal, so they would be guided blindly.

A certain cross-dressing Internet celebrity had given a good demonstration to the other Internet celebrities.

He really had to leave such a matter to a professional like Senior Brother Chu. Otherwise, wouldn't he be annoyed to death?

He put down his phone and left the office, planning to talk to Zhao Moqing about the floating bridge viewing area. Now that the floating bridge viewing area had ended its construction, it was time to open it to the public. Before that, he had to take a video to promote it.

When he arrived at Zhao Moqing's office, he saw her talking to a tall and beautiful woman.

Wasn't this Lin Lanzi, the host of the year-end banquet?

He remembered that Zhao Moqing had recruited her before. Now, she had agreed to come to the villa?

"Boss," Lin Lanzi called out respectfully when she saw Qin Lin. Clearly, she had already been hired.

Zhao Moqing also said, "Hubby, Sister Lanzi will be in charge of the media department in the future. She will be in charge of the official media accounts, filming, publicity filming, villa activities, villa advertisements, and so on."

"Welcome!" Qin Lin nodded and shook hands with Lin Lanzi.

As the villa developed, there were more and more things to do. Some departments indeed had to be divided into jobs. Zhao Moqing alone could not handle it.

"Moqing, Boss, I'll get Xiao Zhao and Xiao Min to show me the villa first." When Lin Lanzi saw Qin Lin come, she also said to the two of them and left the office.

Xiao Zhao and Xiao Min were the photographer and female planner recruited by the villa.

Zhao Moqing originally thought that if this media department was established, she would choose one of the two to be in charge and recruit two people to supplement it.

Unfortunately, most people belonged to the idle fish type, especially those who played with pens and photography.

Xiao Zhao and Xiao Min were not suitable to be managers. The two of them were a little idle, so Zhao Moqing planned to recruit Lin Lanzi.

Not only was the other party a member of the Literary Committee, but she was also good at dealing with people. She had a good image and temperament, and also had a strong foundation in hosting. The key was that she was in a relevant major in university. This was an advantage that others did not have.

"Lin Lanzi's conditions are not bad. I wonder why she's staying in a small place like Youcheng County?" Qin Lin said curiously after sitting down.

To be honest, the salary of Youcheng County's art troupe was not high. With Lin Lanzi's conditions, she could easily find a good job in a big city.

"She's tired because she got hurt in a relationship." Zhao Moqing sighed, her words a little regretful.

"How did you know?" Qin Lin asked curiously.

"Do you think I'm a fool? I'll definitely ask around before I recruit her." Zhao Moqing looked at Qin Lin angrily and said, "I heard that she had a flirtatious boyfriend in Xia City previously. At the wedding, an ugly rich woman came to ruin the wedding. Then, her boyfriend even left with that rich woman."

"Uh…" Qin Lin was stunned.

Wasn't this too melodramatic?

Indeed, money could do whatever it wanted.

With money, he could let the young lady choose the old man or the handsome man choose the auntie.

"Some men are really bad," Zhao Moqing said fiercely. Clearly, she hated men like Lin Lanzi's ex-boyfriend.

Qin Lin hugged Zhao Moqing. "If it were me, I wouldn't exchange a hundred rich women for you."

"What about the 101th?" Zhao Moqing asked teasingly.

Qin Lin teased, "Then I'll consider it."

"You still dare to consider it?" Even though Zhao Moqing knew that Qin Lin was joking, she still glared at him fiercely.

Qin Lin could only laugh and get down to business. "By the way, the floating bridge viewing area has been wrapped up. It can be opened at any time. You can do some publicity here first."

"Yes." Zhao Moqing nodded and said, "I'll get Sister Lanzi to take a video at the floating bridge viewing area tomorrow."

With the villa's current reputation and number of fans, taking a video and uploading it was already the villa's best publicity channel.

However, what Qin Lin did not expect was that before the villa could film a video the next day, the floating bridge viewing area became popular.

Chapter 299

At night.

Yang Dong rushed to Qin Lin's office with his phone and excitedly showed him a video. "Boss, look at this video. Our floating bridge viewing area is popular."

"What's going on?" Qin Lin looked at the video in confusion.

The floating bridge scenic area had not even begun its promotion. Why was it popular?

The video was taken by an ID called 'Xiao Xue'. The video already had 150,000 likes and was on the hot search.

The title was: "The beautiful sunset, the clear pool full of duckweed!"

The video started with a girl's voice. "I discovered beautiful scenery today. If you don't clock in once, I guarantee you'll regret it."

As soon as he finished speaking, a beautiful scene appeared in the video. Floating duckweed, floating bridge, white duck, big fish, and the setting sun intertwined like a painting.

Wasn't this the video of their villa's pontoon bridge viewing area?

Yang Dong explained, "I heard from Supervisor Chen that the security guards didn't watch the entrance in the afternoon. A girl ran in. It should be that girl who posted the video and it's even trending."

"That works?" Qin Lin was stunned.

However, on second thought, Qinglin Villa was popular to begin with. The duckweed produced by the game also had a photogenic attribute. It would naturally look good when it was filmed. In addition, it was the first time that the floating bridge scenic area had been released. For such a high-quality video, it would be supported by Douyin the first time it was released. It was not surprising that it would become popular.

At the end of the video, the girl also announced the location. "I'm sure everyone wants to know where this is, right? This is also Qinglin Villa in Youcheng County."

At this moment…

The video comments section was also very lively.

"Where is this beautiful scenery? It can't be worse than Qinglin Villa."

"Didn't you see the end of the video? This was taken in Qinglin Villa."

"I was shocked. There are so many reservoirs in the country, but this is the first time I've seen a reservoir so meaningful and beautiful."

"No wonder Qinglin Villa's Triangular Plum Blossom Sea became popular. So many scenic spots want to imitate it, but it's inappropriate. That's entirely because of the difference in the creator's ability. I can imagine that there will be many reservoirs imitating it next."

"Brothers, I've already booked the bridal chamber at Qinglin Villa. Don't blame me for not reminding you what to do after your girlfriend sees this video."

"Thank you for the reminder!"

"Don't thank me. You can't book it anymore."

"There's no room available."

Qin Lin returned the phone to Yang Dong and teased, "This is really unexpected. Be prepared. There should be a lot of people coming to this floating bridge viewing area tomorrow. Get Gao Yaoyao to arrange for someone to cooperate with you. Don't let anything happen."

"Okay, Boss!" Yang Dong nodded hurriedly.

Neither Qin Lin nor Zhao Moqing expected the floating bridge viewing area to suddenly became popular. Fortunately, she had a lot of experience managing the villa's official account. She immediately downloaded the video of "My name is Xiao Xue" and edited it again. She then posted it on the official account and wrote the title "First Meeting with Everyone on the Floating Bridge Viewing Area."

This was a free popularity. He had to make good use of it.

When the official account of the villa posted this video, it was clearly more popular. Firstly, many fans who followed the villa saw it.

Furthermore, after a night of fermentation, the video of the floating bridge viewing area became a trending topic the next day. More people saw it. Those scenic bloggers also reposted the video one after another, riding on the popularity and making it even more popular.

Qinglin Villa was flooded again.

Countless people in charge of scenic spots were envious of this. They could not understand why it was so difficult for them to be on the trending searches, but it was so easy for Qinglin Villa.

Especially those famous 5A scenic spots. Logically speaking, they should be stronger than Qinglin Villa. They did not know where they were lacking.

In Min Province.

In a luxurious hall, Wang Yang was watching a short video with Su Juan. Su Juan leaned into his arms and asked worriedly, "Hubby, do you think there's something wrong with the fetus after we drank so much in the past?"

"Baby, don't worry. Wasn't the checkup very good yesterday?" Wang Yang comforted Su Juan. He didn't expect to be a father.

After returning from Qinglin Villa, he had gotten married to Su Juan as promised before the New Year. He had not used a condom the night they got married. Who knew that he would immediately hit the target? He felt that he was quite powerful.

"Okay." Su Juan felt much more relieved with Wang Yang's comfort and started watching videos again. When she was bored, reading novels and watching short videos was really a good way to kill time.

"Huh?" Su Juan looked at the video of the sunset against the pontoon bridge and duckweed on her phone and said in surprise, "Hubby, this scenery is so beautiful. Qinglin Villa isn't so beautiful, right?… Ah, this is actually Qinglin Villa."

When Su Juan saw the end of the video, she was even more surprised. "We didn't go to such a place last time, right?"

"It should be a newly opened area." Wang Yang also took out his phone and opened the Qinglin Villa he was following. As expected, he realized that there was also this video. He said with heartfelt admiration, "The boss of Qinglin Villa is really amazing. He developed another popular attraction."

However, what surprised Wang Yang even more were the ducks and groups of wild goods.

That duck was even bigger than a swan. It looked like it weighed more than 40 catties, right?

He had never seen such a big duck in his life.

According to Qinglin Villa's laws, such a rare thing in the outside world was definitely very delicious or very nutritious.

Chapter 300

There was also that kind of wild fish. He had fallen for the Supreme Set last time and knew how delicious it was.

When he returned to Min Province, he had also asked someone to inquire about such wild goods, but there was no supply at all. It could be seen how rare these things were.

Now, Qinglin Villa was densely packed. As expected of Qinglin Villa.

Looking at the large group of goods, he was a little greedy. He said to Su Juan, "Baby, let's go to Qinglin Villa first on our honeymoon?"

Su Juan nodded sweetly. "Yes, I'll listen to my husband."

Wang Yang continued to watch the video, but after a few videos, he saw an interesting video.

The video title was: "Haha, after a few years of nurturing, my duckling has finally registered through the Guinness Book of Records today."

This was a video of a duck owner named Duck King Wu (Chapter 166).

The duck raised by the Duck King Wu weighed 38 catties. It has passed the Guinness Book of Records of the largest duck in the world. Immediately, someone from the official Guinness Department came to certify the duck.

When the time came, his duck would be the largest duck in the world certified by Guinness.

Therefore, Duck King Wu posted this video and even held a live broadcast to celebrate.

However, when he looked at the video, he felt that something was wrong.

This was because he realized that the ducks recorded by the Duck King Wu were not as big as the three ducks in Qinglin Villa.

"That works?" Wang Yang immediately found the video of the floating bridge in Qinglin Villa.

In serious comparison, the duck weighing 38 catties was indeed not as big as the three ducks in Qinglin Villa.

This Guinness record was getting more and more unscrupulous, right?

No wonder someone asked if he could apply for a Guinness record at most once.

After seeing the ducks in Qinglin Villa and looking at the video of the Duck King Wu, wasn't this Guinness application an insult to one's IQ?

Wang Yang immediately used his account to take a selfie. "Today, the floating bridge viewing area of Qinglin Villa is very popular and beautiful. However, other than the scenery, you guys didn't notice something very important, and that's the weight of the three big ducks. Furthermore, a smaller duck is actually applying for a Guinness record."

He even tagged Duck King Wu.

After the video was sent, it was even more popular. He paid 20,000 yuan to promote it. He did not lack this money. He was just unhappy that his IQ had been insulted by this Guinness Book of Records.

Of course, if it were any other time, he would not have bothered to leave. But who asked this guy to insult Qinglin Villa's ducks?

This was also a very strange psychology for him.

After eating the good food and seeing the effect of the Qinglin Medicine Wine, he felt that he was a fan of Qinglin Villa.

Unfortunately, although he wanted to spend it on Qinglin Villa, Qinglin Villa did not give him a chance. The bottle of Qinglin Medicine Wine in his Supreme Set was already empty. He really wanted to buy another bottle.

A man could only be good after drinking that wine.

What was the power of 20,000 yuan Dou+? It was that the video would quickly become popular. The special video was also related to Qinglin Villa, Guinness, and so on.

The video posted by Wang Yang's account quickly caused a sensation. Those who had seen the video of Qinglin Villa's floating bridge viewing area were awakened by a single sentence.

"F*ck, I was attracted by the scenery when I swiped it previously. I really didn't notice the duck."

"I just realized that the ducks are unbelievably big. I've never seen it in my life."

"I also saw the video of Duck King Wu. I compared it and indeed felt that the ducks in Qinglin Villa were bigger."

"This Duck King Wu has been promoting his duck for a long time just to fish up this Guinness record. Now…"

"Duck King Wu seems to be live streaming because of Guinness. My heart suddenly aches for him."

"…"

Some of them did not mind the situation getting out of hand and even tagged Duck King Wu.

At this moment…

On the other side, a young man was also smiling at the phone in front of him. In his arms, he was holding a very big duck and touching its head gently as if it was a precious treasure.

The duck clearly enjoyed it too. It seemed to have developed feelings for the young man and kept rubbing its head against him.

The young man was the Duck King Wu.

It was obvious that he was in a good mood. The official Guinness Book of Records will be here in a few days.

At that time, the duck in his arms would be the number one in the world. With this identity, he could reap enough benefits. Even if he sold the duck, it would be more expensive than others.

"There are many things to pay attention to when raising ducks, especially large ducks with genetic mutations like my duck. That requires even more rigorous technology," Duck King Wu said confidently. "Besides, I'm sure no one in the world can raise ducks better than me, and no duck can surpass my duck."

He had been advertising for half a year for the Guinness record of his duck.

He had also been investigating all over the world for the past six months. There was no duck bigger than his.

However, after Duck King Wu finished speaking, the comments in the live-stream suddenly became strange. The number of people watching the live-stream was actually increasing rapidly. Four words appeared in the comments: "Qinglin Villa!"

There was a dense 'Qinglin Villa'.

In the end, only the words "Qinglin Villa" were left on the screen.

This made Duck King Wu irritable.

He knew Qinglin Villa, but with his carefully prepared live broadcast, wouldn't these people be causing trouble?

Duck King Wu did not understand and said in frustration, "As a scenic area, the most important thing for Qinglin Villa is quality. Are the fans of Qinglin Villa so uncultured? Are they causing trouble in someone else's live-stream?"

At this moment.

His assistant hurriedly ran over and whispered in his ear, "Someone on the Internet is targeting you. They said that your duck is not the number one in the world. There are three ducks in Qinglin Villa that surpasses it."

When Duck King Wu heard this news, he was no longer in the mood to live-stream. He directly closed the live-stream and asked his assistant, "What's going on? Where's the video?"

The assistant immediately took out a video and handed it to Duck King Wu. "It's a video posted by an ID called 'Knife Beating People'."

When Duck King Wu saw the video, he immediately said angrily, "What does this guy know? How can Qinglin Villa have three ducks that are bigger than my Duckie? If they really have them, why didn't Qinglin Villa publicize them earlier? How much popularity can that bring them?"

The assistant frowned and said, "There are indeed ducks in the video at Qinglin Villa today. They're not small."

Duck King Wu still did not believe it. He immediately found the video of Qinglin Villa and saw the three ducks. Then, he frowned and asked his assistant, "Do you think these three ducks are heavier than Duckie?"

The assistant said awkwardly, "Boss, from the size of the video, those three ducks seem to be a little bigger than Duckie."

Duck King Wu frowned even more. "No, that's definitely impossible. If Qinglin Villa really has such a big duck, it should have been publicized long ago. How big of an honor would it be to be named the world's biggest duck?"

This was very irregular, so he did not believe it.

Seeing Duck King Wu like this, the assistant could only comfort him. "When the duck in Qinglin Villa spread its wings, its feathers seemed to be very long. Perhaps this is why it looks so big?"

When Duck King Wu heard this, it was as if he had grabbed onto a life-saving straw. "Yes, you're right. This can also explain why the other party didn't apply for the Guinness Book of Records. They didn't respond to us once in the past six months because we released Duckie's weight of 38 catties."

Then, he actually picked up his phone and took a video of the response. "First of all, I seriously condemn this 'Knife Beating People'. My duck has been preparing for the Guinness Book of Records for half a year. Doesn't Qinglin Villa know about this for the past six months? Why didn't they come out and express their opinions on my duck?"

"That's because the ducks in Qinglin Villa only have longer feathers and look larger. If the other party's ducks really surpass my ducks, why didn't he ask to apply for the Guinness Book of Records? Then would I still apply?"

After filming the video, he immediately chose to send it. He even tagged Knife Beating People and Qinglin Villa.

He definitely did not believe that the ducks in Qinglin Villa were bigger, unless the other party applied for a Guinness record and suppressed his duck's 38 catties.
