396 Upgrade Again! Special Crops: Beauty Cucumber!

The Tree of Sound in Qinglin Villa became popular online for a few days before it slowly decreased.

This was not because the Tree of Sound was no longer popular, but because the short video platform was controlling its popularity. Although the platform wanted the popularity of one thing to attract attention, it would definitely not keep investing in traffic on something that could not benefit it too much.

Streamer PK, selling goods, and advertising were the mainstream on the platform.

However, over the past week, the reputation of the two 500-year-old ginkgo and Tree of Sound had completely spread.

Now, when others talked about famous trees in the country, they would definitely think of these two ancient ginkgo trees.

On Penguin Music Platform, the light music editing of Tree of Sound was also shockingly downloaded.

Naturally, the county quickly found a documentary director to promote the travel documentary.

The other party had once filmed a documentary about Youcheng County's snacks.

In Qinglin Villa.

Master Lin was accompanying the long-haired man in the restaurant with a bitter expression.

The other party was the director found by the county. There was an assistant beside him who kept writing in a notebook.

The long-haired director said seriously, "Master Lin, let's add more elements of conflict to this transitional plot. For example, during this period, a wood thief wanted to secretly cut trees and was discovered by Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan even fought with the wood thief and was injured. Then, he helped the police catch the wood thief and filled up the story."

Lin Yuan was naturally the protagonist of the promotional documentary and also Master Lin's alias. His real name was Lin Yuan.

"But that isn't true? This isn't good. You can't lie!" Master Lin hurriedly shook his head bitterly. He couldn't lie anymore.

Wasn't this current situation caused by his bragging?

He would be a fool to do such a thing again.

He could not lie anymore.

The long-haired director smiled and said, "Master Lin, your quality of not lying is admirable, but it's just a documentary for publicity. It's still possible to process it appropriately. That's settled."

"…" Master Lin wanted to curse.

Since the other party had decided, why ask him? Besides, why was he looking for him?

After that, the long-haired director raised his request for a plump plot. Master Lin realized that he had no objections at all. Moreover, the story the other party made up was getting more and more strange.

After the long-haired director left, he could only walk gloomily into the original hall.

There were already many people taking measurements in the original hall.

Qin Lin was also gesturing at a person in charge.

These people were the ones he had hired to build the aquarium.

The original hall was empty. The aquarium plan had long been made. Previously, this matter had been delayed because of the cultivation of watermelon seeds and Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds in the backyard.

Now that the watermelon seeds and Xiangshui Tribute Rice seeds had been successfully cultivated, the aquarium matter could naturally be on the agenda.

The person in charge also recorded Qin Lin's requests one by one.

Building an aquarium was not something that could be done in a moment. The hardest thing about building an aquarium was not the construction process, but the making of the design.

Cost, rationality, how to control the ventilation, oxygen content, reasonable coordination of the biological areas, and so on had to be planned when the design was done.

As for construction, with modern technology and materials, it could be done step by step. Instead, it was not much different from ordinary construction projects.

The person-in-charge and Qin Lin walked around. Seeing that Qin Lin had no new requests, he began to look for the people who measured the data.

When Master Lin saw Qin Lin, he went forward and said bitterly, "Boss, can you tell the county not to film the promotional video?"

"What's wrong?" Qin Lin looked at Master Lin teasingly. He was asking the obvious. After all, he knew that Master Lin must be panicking now.

Master Lin was flustered, but he couldn't tell his boss about his bragging. He could only push the blame to the director. "Boss, isn't that a lie if that director wants to add scenes for me?"

Qin Lin did not expose Master Lin. Instead, he teased, "Art processing is normal. When the time comes, we'll add the words 'advertising a documentary film based on a real story' in front of the documentary. That won't be a problem."

"…" In the end, Master Lin could only sigh helplessly and return to the dining room.

It seemed there was no way to salvage the situation.

He was already so old. Why did he want to take the medicine for regret?

Qin Lin smiled and returned to his office.

Because of the aquarium, he had not settled the matters in the game today. He would go back and play the game first.

When he returned to the office, Qin Lin immediately looked at the screen in his mind and controlled the game to do today's operation. Unfortunately, the fishing was still the same, and the mountain goods had not refreshed. The trees that refreshed were still ordinary trees.

It seemed to be another day without surprises.

However, when he brought the cut trees back to the ranch to sell, the system notification suddenly sounded:

[Character level increased. New function opened!]

The sudden notification made Qin Lin happy.

This was because the Ranches Story game had always had a vague level setting. There was not even an experience bar. It was not something that players could predict when they could level up.

This sudden upgrade was really an unexpected surprise.

Qin Lin hurriedly looked at the information on the game screen.

In addition to the Level 1 land that could be developed and the Level 2 land that could be upgraded, Level 3 could also be upgraded to another level. Moreover, this time, it could be upgraded to Level 4.

There was no movement from the paddy field or the ranch.

As expected, another medicinal garden function was opened. This medicinal garden modification required a Level 3 land.

Qin Lin did not hesitate. He first controlled the game character to develop all the Level 1 lands that could be developed before leveling up to Level 2.

Although there was long no need to move more crops from Level 1 and 2 lands into reality from the game, these lands could become one of the sources of game gold coins.

After that, he controlled the game character to upgrade a Level 3 land. However, developing the medicinal garden consumed a Level 3 land, which was equivalent to the number of Level 3 lands not increasing at all.

He directly chose to modify this newly upgraded Level 3 land into a medicinal garden.

A system prompt immediately appeared:

[Do you want to modify the medicinal garden?]

Qin Lin directly chose yes. Then, the Level 3 plot began to flip. In a moment, the Level 3 plot became a Level 1 medicinal garden.

Looking at the Level 1 medicinal garden, he thought of the Donasi Plant Root that Li Kai wanted to cultivate.

If Li Kai's cultivation failed, he could try using this medicinal garden.

Now that he had enough game gold coins, Qin Lin finally spent gold coins to upgrade to Level 4.

After doing all this, he immediately controlled his game character to go to the Ore Town's seed shop.

He wanted to see if there were any surprises in Level 4 and the new medicinal garden.

He entered the seed shop and clicked on the NPC.

In addition to the paddy field crop seeds, the option of medicinal garden seeds appeared again.

Clicking on the Level 1 medicinal garden seed to check, a list appeared: mint, honeysuckle…

There were many Level 1 medicinal garden seeds that could be sold in the game seed shop, but there were no Donasi Plant Root seeds. This might be because the game planner had limited energy. After all, it was impossible to get all the seeds into the game. If that was the case, just this list of seeds might make the game company die.

However, he was also puzzled. Why did the system decide that the Donasi Plant Root could be planted in a Level 1 medicinal garden?

After all, these Level 1 medicinal garden seeds were very ordinary and common seeds, and these Donasi Plant Root seeds were clearly so difficult to plant and cultivate in reality.

According to his previous experience, the value of the seeds at various levels in the game was related to the value of the seeds in reality. The higher the level of the seeds, the higher the price in reality.

Could it be that this Donasi Plant Root seed had once been easy to cultivate?

Or was Donasi Plant Root just hard to cultivate in the country? Easy to cultivate in some places, just not finding the right place?

Or had the previous cultivation method been wrong and the method not been correct?

Qin Lin couldn't figure it out and didn't think about it. Anyway, he had the system, so it was meaningless to understand this.

Then, he looked at the seeds that could be planted in Level 4 land.

There were also a lot of seeds in Level 4 land. Moreover, the price of these crops in reality was a little higher than in Level 3 land.

But when he scrolled to the end of the list, a surprise appeared.

Qin Lin saw a seed with a star.

The seed represented a mysterious treasure. It was very rare. It was refreshed randomly in shops and its quality was not fixed. It was not in the regular seed list (Chapter 32).

Just like the seeds of the seedless watermelon (Quality 2) and the seeds of the Xiangshui Tribute Rice (Quality 1).

[Beauty Cucumber Seed: Quality 2]

[This is a special cucumber seed. It is a high-quality cucumber seed that has been optimized by the crop experts among the dwarfs after long research. It has improved the beauty effect of the cucumber. After a system modification, there is no restriction on seasonal planting. Planting requirements: Level 4 land.]

It was a cucumber seed, but not just any cucumber seed.

Everyone knew that cucumbers had a beauty effect. Some good cucumbers were more effective than face masks.

Because the cucumber enzyme of fresh cucumbers had very strong active biological enzymes and other substances that could effectively promote the metabolism of the body, promote blood circulation, and achieve the effect of moisturizing the skin, it made sense for some women to directly use cucumbers to apply to their faces.

The special beauty cucumber seeds that had been refreshed this time had been strengthened in terms of beauty effects. It could be said that this kind of cucumber was not used to eat. It was specially used to cover the face.

However, the planting requirement for this Beauty Cucumber was Level 4 land. Presumably, after leaving Level 4 land and planting it outside, the quality would probably decrease like watermelon.

However, as long as they could confirm that it had a beauty effect, even if the quality decreased, many women would rush to buy it.

What did women care about the most?

Wasn't it their face?

It was also the easiest to earn money on beauty.

Qin Lin felt that the system wanted him to control the key to wealth.

Previously, duck eggs had such an effect. Now, even a cucumber was for beauty. Moreover, there were more or less some restrictions on beauty eggs. This beauty cucumber could definitely be promoted on a large scale in reality.

In the future, this might even be one of the necessary dishes in a woman's kitchen.

After all, this thing was not only useful for beauty, but also for women.

Qin Lin decisively controlled his game character to buy the Beauty Cucumber seeds and headed to the ranch to plant them on the Level 4 land.

The growth cycle of cucumbers was not very long, about two months. According to the game time ratio, they could be harvested in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, the game indeed indicated that the Beauty Cucumber had been planted successfully.

Qin Lin controlled his game character to pick the Beauty Cucumbers in Level 4 land and placed them in the storage room. Then, he locked the office door.

Then, he entered the game immediately and saw the table where the Beauty Cucumbers were placed in the storage room.

At a glance, there were not many harvests. Moreover, these cucumbers were not big in size. Their skins were not green. Instead, they were a little brownish-yellow. They were not as big as normal cucumbers. They were thinner and longer, about five centimeters in diameter.

For some reason, something was wrong.

There was a message board in front of these Beauty Cucumbers:

[Beauty Cucumber: Quality 2 (75 pieces)]

[This is a special Beauty Cucumber. It's a finished product carefully studied by experts among dwarfs. It's a blessing for women: Skin whitening effect +2, skin moisturizing effect +2! Taste -2, delicious -2, special unknown effect +1]
