In the beginning, Tingting was also a relatively well-known gaming streamer.
But when she started growing top-tier Tomato No. 1 in her live broadcast room, the number of people who followed her grew more and more, even surpassing the 500,000 mark.
The popularity of her live broadcast room skyrocketed every day.
“Tingting, there are too many tomatoes at home. Hurry up and eat some.”
Tingting’s mother’s voice could be heard from behind her.
She had cultivated two potted tomatoes herself, but after she saw the link to the Taobao shop, she bought two more potted tomatoes.
Therefore, their family could now harvest five to six catties of tomatoes every day.
Although the family of three could eat so many tomatoes in a day, a healthy diet consisted of meat and vegetables and they couldn’t eat tomatoes every day.
Tingting and her parents had been eating a variety of tomato dishes every day. These dishes included sugar-mixed tomatoes, scrambled eggs with tomato, tomato egg soup and others.
After eating for almost a month, they were about to vomit.
Even if they could give some of the tomatoes to their relatives and neighbours, these relatives and neighbours had also bought the potted top-tier Tomato No. 1.
Therefore, they didn’t need the additional gifts of tomatoes from Tingting and her family.
As for the others, everyone was facing the same situation.
On the e-commerce platform for the top-tier Tomato No. 1 potted plants, at least 50,000 potted plants were sold every day.
In other words, at least every user who bought them recommended the plants to their relatives and friends.
This included an internet celebrity family who found business opportunities in top-tier Tomato No. 1.
Their grandmother specialized in selling vegetables in the market.
If she sold vegetables every day, the profits would be around 200 yuan, and they had to rule out special circumstances.
But now, their family bought 40 pots of top-tier Tomato No. 1. They could harvest 60 to 70 catties of tomatoes in a day.
Then, they sold some of these ripe tomatoes in the market and were able to get a quick return on capital.
Moreover, the profits were impressive.
Tomato No. 1 had just entered the market and was not a household name to every family yet.
Therefore, many small vendors saw a business opportunity and made some money from the sale of these tomatoes.
However, what troubled them was that their homes were now filled with green vines.
Those people who entered their homes would think that they had entered the forest.
Of course, it was also because of the sale of the top-tier Tomato No. 1 that Cosmic Planting had received a lot of funds.
At this moment, Ye Heng could be said to be a multimillionaire.
The net income of their flagship store had already reached as much as 50 million yuan.
However, Ye Heng was guarded against arrogance and impatience. Thinking of the company’s long-term development, he once again spent 300,000 yuan to rent a certain office building and purchase a portion of the land for farming.
As for the company’s employees, there were more than 100 of them.
The funds that they have obtained were not wasted, nor were they used for spending on food and drinks. Instead, they were saved up for the company’s future development.
Ye Heng now used the system to replicate the top-tier tomato seeds every day, at least 100,000 seeds were replicated.
After that, he let the company’s employees go to their planting fields to plant.
Moreover, he controlled the sales of potted tomatoes in the flagship store.
Ye Heng didn’t want to take over the entire market right now, but he wanted to start small and go steady to plan on a long-term basis.
So now, he only supplied at most 100,000 seeds per day.
The new breed that he started to develop half a month later was the lettuce that he had already decided on.
At present, he was still focusing on vegetables for the time being, and not on fruits and flowers.
After all, most people living in the city had limited living spaces. When they had their gardens, they could consider growing flowers and fruits.
Ye Heng had considered this very carefully.
However, lettuce was the same as Chinese cabbage, they were a one-time off plant
This meant that after he planted it and when it matured, he would pull it out and plant it again.
The leaves of lettuce could not grow all the time, and when it matured completely, it would gradually age.
Taking this into account, although Ye Heng could speed up its growth or let the lettuce grow in barren soil, there seemed to be something missing.
In Ye Heng’s opinion, he could consider giving lettuce the characteristics of a vine-type plant.
Just like a pumpkin, its seedlings could grow again after being picked.
However, when Ye Heng thought of this scene, he suddenly shivered.
If lettuce were to grow on the vines, it would be somewhat strange.
Suddenly, he thought of the silkworm tree that the baby silkworms needed.
The leaves on this kind of tree could be picked continuously, and it would grow countless times every day.
In other words, its leaf regeneration was very strong.
Another important point was that this kind of plant grew very small and was not very tall.
It was similar to an ordinary bush.
“I can extract this characteristic.”
After thinking through it, Ye Heng placed the plants in the extraction furnace for the next transformation.
“Beep. Extracted the characteristic of leaf regeneration.”
However, the plants he had produced this time did not have a grade.
In the system’s grading system, Ye Heng had yet to see the top-grade characteristics.
However, when he saw the system’s initial screen, the plants that could cover the entire planet probably had the top-grade characteristics of the plants.
As for the two furnaces that could not be used, they might be the ones that could allow the high-quality characteristics to be upgraded.
However, his willpower was probably not strong enough, so he couldn’t use them at the moment.
These two furnaces were still grey.
After obtaining the high-quality characteristics that he needed, Ye Heng was instantly energized. He placed the lettuce seeds in the furnace provided by the system.
“Beep, lettuce seeds found.”
“Does the host want to fuse the relevant characteristics?”
Then, the various plant characteristics that Ye Heng had extracted so far appeared. But there was only one that he could choose.
Ye Heng chose the leaf growth ability.
Then, after the furnace cover had been closed for some time, the system notification said that the fusion had been completed successfully.
“Super lettuce.”
But the following remarks still did not have a level.
“Beep. Congratulations, host. The leaf regeneration characteristic has been successfully fused. The lettuce has the high-quality characteristic of rapid growth, as well as the high-quality characteristics of anti-infertile and shade-loving.”
“You have successfully obtained a grade 1 vegetable, the super lettuce seed.”
After hearing the familiar electronic sound of the system, Ye Heng looked over in shock.
He did not expect that this lettuce seed had five characteristics.
More importantly, unlike the tomatoes from before, the lettuce that was going to be released this time was classified as grade 1.
In other words, compared to the top-tier Tomato No. 1 that was developed previously, this super lettuce was even more powerful.
The most crucial point was this super lettuce only takes half a month to ripen..
