After being universally criticized online, he cultivates immortality and farms to lead his motherlan

Chapter 133 What the hell?

She put the remaining eight Silver Spirit Pills into her Qiankun Ring and will digest them slowly over the next two days.

the next day.

Professor Jiang specially asked Jiang You and several students to bring a banner and flowers.

The banner bears the four large golden characters "妙手回春" (Miraculous Healing Hands), and in the lower right corner is the inscription "赠简宁" (Presented to Jian Ning).

Besides these, the 20,000 yuan reward was not reduced in the entire amount.

Jian Ning's savings have increased even more.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing." Jiang You took out a thick piece of paper from her bag with a very serious expression. The paper was tied with a red ribbon into a bow. She handed it to Jian Ning with both hands: "The teacher applied to the higher-ups and specially appointed you as a professional consultant for our base. This is the letter of appointment."

Jian Ning really had no such intention. "This isn't..." appropriate.

I didn't fully express my refusal.

Jiang You whispered, "The fixed monthly salary is 20,000 yuan. You only need to provide guidance when the base encounters difficulties. Moreover, you can take any seedlings you like from the base."

You mentioned to me a few days ago that you wanted to buy some of our tomato seedlings, and I told you they're not available on the market and aren't for sale right now. But once you become a consultant for our base, none of that will be a problem.”

Jian Ning doesn't really crave money. Besides her savings, she can afford to eat a vegetable blind box every week, so she won't starve.

This prospective talent has truly piqued her interest.

Cultivating immortality is a hobby for her, but she genuinely enjoys farming.

The villa is so big, and she has a bit of a collecting habit; she probably wants to plant everything she sees that she likes to grow.

Professor Jiang's experimental base is so large, and the species are much richer and more complete than hers.

Moreover, if Professor Jiang really encounters any problems, and she finds out, she certainly won't stand idly by if she can solve them.

Jian Ning accepted the offer letter, saying, "Then I'll take it."

Jiang You happily handed her a gift bag: "When the teacher gave me the letter of appointment, I went to a boutique and picked out a glass photo frame for you. You can frame it. See if you like it."

Jian Ning took it, opened the bag and glanced at it. The brown-black border and transparent glass were simple yet elegant.

She laughed and said, "I've seen people frame their graduation certificates online, but I don't think I've ever seen them frame their job offer letters as well."

In Jiang You's eyes, this letter of appointment had gone through the official process and was from a national-level plant expert, which was quite rare.

She may never receive this honor in her lifetime.

So she was genuinely happy for Jian Ning and felt that this rare honor should be cherished, which is why she took it upon herself to buy a photo frame: "Ning Ning, this letter of appointment is so good. If you frame it, everyone who sees it will know how amazing you are."

Jian Ning recalled that when she was in elementary school, every time the school gave out certificates of merit at the end of the semester, she would take the certificate home. Her grandparents would then carefully stick rice grains to the back of the certificate before pasting it on the wall.

That wall was eventually covered with her award certificates, all neatly arranged.

She felt a touch of emotion, smiled, and echoed Jiang You's words, replying, "Okay."

The photo frame was the perfect size. Jian Ning carefully framed the employment letter with two stamps on it and placed it on the table under the TV.

Jian Ning didn't have anything else to give as a gift, so she gave Jiang You a jar of homemade dried radish and fermented bean curd.

Jiang You was delighted. "I've been so busy these past few days, and I'm getting a bit tired of eating at the base canteen every day. These two dishes are perfect for eating with rice."

Jian Ning: "I hope you like it."

Jiang You said, "I definitely like it. The radishes that the teacher brought back from your place before were stir-fried by me at his house. Everyone loved them. Those radishes were so delicious, with a very natural sweetness. They were even better than the radishes grown by other senior students at the base."

Jian Ning said, "If you like, then pick a few radishes before you leave."

Jiang You had intended to be polite, but upon thinking of the taste of the radishes, he chuckled and decided to drop the pretense: "Ningning, I'll pick a few radishes to take with me."

Jian Ning chuckled and said, "Come on, I'll take you to the vegetable garden."

Finally, Jiang You, who had only intended to pick a few radishes, ended up carrying several large bags of vegetables after being enthusiastically persuaded by Jian Ning.

With so many bags and packages, they looked like they were leaving their parents' home after the Spring Festival.
-
Time flies by.

Jian Ning swallowed the remaining eight Silver Spirit Pills and successfully broke through to the sixth level of the Qi Refining stage.

The strawberry seedlings I bought at the exhibition are growing very fast.

Flower buds gradually appeared and then bloomed into small white flowers. Some of the flowers, after being pollinated, turned into light green fruits with small hairs still attached.

Strawberry flowers typically have five petals.

Those strawberries with seven or eight petals are almost guaranteed to grow to be enormous.

In Jianning's strawberry field, it's not uncommon to see strawberries with seven or eight petals like this.

Before winter arrives, you can still see the hardworking little bees diligently collecting nectar when the sun rises. Strawberries planted in autumn can be harvested after fifty or sixty days of growth.

In about a week, we can start picking the strawberries from this field.

This was Jian Ning's first time growing strawberries, so she was naturally very curious and would take several photos every time she came to see the strawberries.

Actually, it wasn't just the first time I'd grown strawberries; it was also the first time I'd ever eaten strawberries at that exhibition.

She had never seen strawberries in her home when she was a child.

Back then, the most common fruits we ate at home were probably oranges and watermelons.

Oranges are because we have a few green orange trees at home. They're sour, the kind of sour that just thinking about the taste makes you feel sour. The sweetness probably only accounts for about one-fifth of the flavor.

However, it's rare to see those green-skinned tangerines that I ate when I was a child now, and I really miss them.

Watermelons were cheap back then in the summer, unlike now in the north of the city where you can buy half a watermelon for over forty yuan.

When I was a kid, watermelons were only a few cents a pound. Kids would cut them open with a knife, hold one half, and scoop out the flesh with a spoon – they were so cheap. After eating them, adults would trick us into washing our faces with the watermelon rind, saying it would be good for our skin.

So, she had never eaten strawberries before, but after having a blast at the convention, she found they tasted even better than she had imagined, and that's when she decided to order seedlings and grow them herself.

She doesn't just want to grow strawberries; she wants to plant many, many more fruit trees.

Jian Ning took the photos of the strawberries, opened the Fengqi Live APP, turned them into a video, and posted it on the farming account that hadn't posted any new updates in a long time.

Then, they got right to it.

Just open your phone and search for "which month is the best to plant fruit trees".

The answer given online is late autumn to early winter, when transplanting makes it easier for the plant to heal and lays the foundation for growth and development the following spring.

Late autumn and early winter, which is just a little bit later than now.

It's ok.

Jian Ning opened the shopping website and immediately started placing orders.

When she was little, she loved eating the pomelos grown by other people. They were the kind that were purely sweet, unlike the juicy pomelos from the mountain village. Those pomelos had a dry, pure sweetness.

But because her own family didn't grow any, she would eagerly wait for that family to send her two to eat every year.

Jian Ning specifically searched for pomelo tree varieties and decided to buy one.

There are also loquats, I'll buy some.

Chestnut tree, buy it.

Blueberries, buy them.

Yellow peaches, nectarines, eagle beak peaches... She loves peaches, fuzzy peaches, nectarines, crisp peaches, and yellow peaches.

Buy them all.

I'll buy a pomegranate tree.

Durian tree... Jian Ning thought for a moment, this seems a bit excessive, after all, it's a tropical fruit, never mind.

It would be great if there were a space for planting, like in the novel.

After a series of purchases, the number of items pending shipment on the Jianning shopping app reached 99+.

She found it all rather baffling. How could there be so many? She hadn't bought much; she was just worried that the seedlings from this particular store weren't good enough, so she bought from several others.

She clicked on the "Pending Shipment" section and scrolled through it.

It's confirmed; this number is indeed accurate and didn't wrong her.

She had gone completely crazy while shopping, but now that she had finished placing her order and calmed down, she looked up and noticed that the system had appeared out of nowhere.

[Your cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds in just a few days, thanks in no small part to the Silver Spirit Pill. Unfortunately, the sect's resources are limited, and there's a shortage of alchemists, so we have to rely on others for pills. On this path to cultivation, good pills are indispensable! Why not start by learning the most basic pill-making techniques?]

[Task: Craft ten portions of Thousand-Year-Old Snowy Mountain Roe Deer with Mucor]

[Reward: Secret Realm Fragment *1]

Jian Ning looked at the task with a puzzled expression.

What the hell?
Good news: I misspelled a name in the first few chapters, but no one noticed.

Bad news: I misspelled a character's name in the first few chapters. How come no one noticed?
