The other players following Liu Chengfeng were initially puzzled as to why he suddenly stopped, but when they followed his gaze, they were immediately stunned by the sight before them.
"This…"
Someone couldn't help but rub his eyes, then looked again, asking as if he had forgotten.
"This should have been planted by the boss just yesterday, right?"
Someone else nodded blankly: "It should be!"
"But, but, but… how did it grow so big?"
"And what are those things? Why don't I recognize any of them?"
The players looked at the magnificent vegetable garden, both shocked and confused, feeling an extreme sense of unreality.
"Have they finally arrived?"
Su Ran had already been waiting outside the Internet Cafe, and in fact, most of the crops in the vegetable garden had already been harvested. If it weren't for waiting for the players to arrive, he would have finished harvesting everything by now.
Su Ran smiled and looked at Liu Chengfeng: "You can have your people take back the ingredients they sent. As you can see, I'm not lacking!"
Before Liu Chengfeng could speak, a player interjected: "Boss, are you sure these things you planted are really ingredients? Are they edible?"
"Of course!"
Su Ran nodded affirmingly: "Not only are they edible, but they're also extremely delicious!"
"But they matured too quickly!"
"I've heard that some countries or sects on the continent do possess magical methods for accelerating growth and ripening, but it's impossible for them to achieve this kind of effect!"
"Boss, how did you do it?"
Everyone truly couldn't figure it out.
The soil in Feiyun Country itself was very barren, making it difficult to grow crops normally, let alone at such an unbelievable growth rate.
Su Ran didn't keep them in suspense and directly revealed everything about the soil and seeds.
"Brought out from Stardew Valley?"
"Requires special planting methods?"
"Can grow in as little as one day, or at most three days?"
Everyone listened, completely dumbfounded.
However, they finally understood. No wonder they didn't recognize any of those crops; it turned out they all came from the game world.
They then continued to observe from a distance, marveling for a while.
It wasn't until their initial surprise faded and their eagerness to play the game returned to the forefront that everyone realized it was already past opening time and hurriedly asked.
"Boss, can we go in now?"
Su Ran had already finished harvesting the remaining crops and nodded: "Go in!"
The players then eagerly rushed into the Internet Cafe.
Only Liu Chengfeng remained standing in place, seemingly still pondering Su Ran's words.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, what are you doing? If you don't go in soon, all the spots will be taken!"
"Ah? Oh, I know!"
It wasn't until someone called him that he snapped back to reality.
But Liu Chengfeng still didn't go in immediately. Instead, he approached Su Ran, his eyes flickering.
"Boss, can I also exchange for that soil and those seeds from the Game Store?"
Su Ran was startled, then nodded with a smile: "Yes, but the achievement points in each Game Store are not interconnected. That is to say, if you want to exchange for items from Stardew Valley, you must personally play the Stardew Valley game!"
"Understood, thank you, Boss!"
A look of ecstasy flashed across Liu Chengfeng's brows, and then he followed inside, appearing somewhat eager.
Su Ran watched Liu Chengfeng's retreating figure, not expecting him to be the first player to show interest in Stardew Valley. However, when he thought of his identity, he seemed to understand.
At this moment, when the players stepped into the Internet Cafe and saw that the layout inside had changed again, they were first stunned, then their expressions lit up with joy.
"New computers again?"
"Good, good! Now I don't have to worry about not getting a spot!"
"This is more like it. Instead of a rest area that no one uses, it's much more practical to add more computers."
"I agree. Boss, you're awesome!"
After a burst of cheers, the players began to log on and enter the game.
Meanwhile, Su Ran returned to the bar counter. Not long after, he saw Wu Lei approach him.
"Boss, where's my guide?"
Wu Lei slapped two gold tickets on the bar counter and hurriedly asked: "It should be written, right?"
"Here it is!"
Su Ran also handed over the game guide he had already prepared.
Wu Lei's face instantly lit up with joy after receiving the guide, but he then secretly asked: "Boss, Ouyang Qing and the others don't know they can buy guides from you yet, do they?"
"They haven't asked me yet!"
"Good, good, good. Then don't tell them for now. Let me play a bit more first!"
With that, Wu Lei excitedly ran back.
Su Ran glanced at the two gold tickets on the bar counter, wondering how to deal with them.
[Contribution points +200]
As the system prompt sounded, the two gold tickets had already vanished.
Seeing this, Su Ran began to sort the crops he had just harvested.
As he looked at the brightly colored, enticingly fragrant ingredients in his hand, he felt his appetite stir, but he still held back.
The ingredients he was going to eat had already been taken upstairs. As for these, they weren't prepared for him.
…
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, it was almost noon.
Outside the Internet Cafe, a figure rushed over, anxious and hurried.
"I knew I shouldn't have drunk last night. There won't be any spots left, will there?"
Jia Baolai walked into the Internet Cafe with a worried expression, quickly looked around, and found that there seemed to be more computers today, and there were even spots available. He was immediately overjoyed.
"This is great!"
He had been looking forward to playing the game since yesterday.
He immediately found a computer, but as soon as he sat down, he froze because he didn't know how to start.
He had understood most of the game from watching others play yesterday, but he still hadn't figured out how to use the computer. At this moment, all the other players were already in the game.
He had no choice but to get up and run to the bar counter again.
"Boss, this computer…"
"Hmm?"
Just as he was about to ask, he noticed several small ceramic dishes placed on the bar counter, filled with colorful things.
He didn't recognize what they were.
At this time, Su Ran was still continuously slicing those things with a kitchen knife and placing them into the small dishes.
Jia Baolai, somewhat curious, changed his question: "Boss, what are these?"
"Ingredients, fresh ingredients that can be eaten raw. Want to try some?"
"Ah?"
Upon hearing that it was food, Jia Baolai lost interest and immediately shook his head: "No thanks, I already ate before I came. And although I don't recognize these ingredients of yours, they should all be vegetarian, right? You don't know, I'm a person who can't live without meat, and…"
But he hadn't finished speaking.
Jia Baolai's nose twitched slightly, and he caught the enticing aroma emanating from the food in those small dishes.
His throat inconveniently moved, saliva unconsciously secreted in his mouth, and his stomach, which had just finished eating, began to rumble. He was hungry again!
