I Can Stock Up in the Game

Chapter 83: Chapter 77: Such Foresight! Truly Admirable

The next morning, Zhang Lin went online to check on things. Sure enough, the news that the *Super Brain* program was organizing its top team to livestream a challenge of the Li Yuan Farm Bamboo Maze had become a trending topic.

The promotional video he had posted last night had already garnered over 1.5 million likes, and the number was still climbing steadily.

The comment section was filled with heated discussions and speculation about which *Super Brain* contestant would be able to clear the maze.

But for Zhang Lin and the *Super Brain* program team, with all this hype, it no longer mattered who actually passed the challenge.

After Zhang Lin finished breakfast and arrived at the farm, he received a deposit notification from the *Super Brain* program team:

”Your card ending in *** has received a deposit of 1,000,000.00. New balance: 3,815,463.12!”

The one million yuan from the *Super Brain* program team had arrived.

Zhang Lin went to the prefab office, listened to a report from Liu De and the others, then headed straight for the field of fast-growing, white-fleshed sweet potatoes to check on the two acres of seedlings he had transplanted himself.

’If these sweet potato seedlings could be propagated by transplanting instead of being purchased from the game, then I could start large-scale cultivation.’

’I could even rent a large plot of land in You City for cultivation. With their skin-whitening properties, I’d have no trouble selling them; people would be scrambling to get their hands on them.’

But when he saw the seedlings he had transplanted himself, he sighed. It seemed the experiment had failed. These seedlings didn’t have the fast-growing property at all; their growth rate was completely normal.

’In other words, the experiment was a failure.’

’But on second thought, it was to be expected. If the game’s products were this easy to replicate, they’d lose all their value. When I start selling them, what’s to stop anyone from just copying them?’

As Zhang Lin was leaving the field, he received a call from Huang Tao. He had arrived at the service center.

He hurried to the service center and saw Huang Tao already waiting for him with the owners of several brick and cement factories.

”Your timing is perfect,” Zhang Lin said as soon as he saw him. ”I actually needed to ask you for something!”

”What’s up?” Huang Tao asked, puzzled.

”I need to borrow your car to pick someone up,” Zhang Lin explained. His senior, Lin Muxue, was coming over, and since he didn’t have a car, he naturally had to borrow one.

’Huang Tao’s car is a Mercedes E-Class, which would be perfect.’

”That’s no problem at all. I’ll just leave the car with you when I go,” Huang Tao agreed without the slightest hesitation.

’He didn’t usually lend out his car, but it all depended on the person and the circumstances.’

’And if Zhang Lin was the one asking, he would definitely lend it.’

”Thanks!” Zhang Lin said.

Huang Tao then made the introductions. ”Zhang Lin, these gentlemen are the owners of the brick and cement factories. They can supply all the materials you need. Don’t worry about the quality; I’ll personally make sure it’s up to standard!”

The factory owners greeted Zhang Lin one by one, their attitudes deferential.

After all, they knew how popular and profitable Li Yuan Farm was at the moment. The young man before them was its owner, and he was destined to become a major figure in You City.

Since Zhang Lin had entrusted the matter of the bricks and cement to Huang Tao, he had full confidence in him. Now that Huang Tao had brought the suppliers, Zhang Lin said directly, ”Huang Tao, let’s get things arranged. I’ll sign the contracts with these gentlemen right now. I’m eager to get construction started.”

Seeing how decisive Zhang Lin was and how much trust he placed in him, Huang Tao assured him again, ”Zhang Lin, you absolutely don’t have to worry about the quality!”

”Okay,” Zhang Lin nodded.

After the contracts were signed, Huang Tao left his car keys with Zhang Lin and had one of the brick factory owners give him a ride back.

A little after one in the afternoon, Zhang Lin heard from his senior, Lin Muxue. She was about to arrive at the You City high-speed rail station. He had a pickup sign made and then drove Huang Tao’s Mercedes to the station.

...

「A high-speed train pulled to a stop in You City.」

Lin Muxue stepped off the train with a suitcase in hand, accompanied by another young woman.

She hadn’t brought her entire team this time, only a single planner named Liu Qian. The rest of the team could come later, once things were settled and arrangements were made.

”Muxue, how did you get in touch with Li Yuan Farm?” Liu Qian asked, full of curiosity.

Li Yuan Farm was incredibly popular lately. If it maintained its current level of hype, the amount of online traffic it generated would be staggering.

”He invited me through our alumni group chat,” Lin Muxue explained.

She had been very surprised to discover that the owner of Li Yuan Farm was a junior from her university and that he had suddenly invited her for a collaboration.

She had naturally been paying attention to Li Yuan Farm recently and knew just how much buzz it was generating.

As she walked through the station exit, she saw a young man holding a sign that read, ”Welcome Lin Muxue”!

Liu Qian saw him too and exclaimed in surprise, ”Muxue, look! The person here to pick us up is really handsome!”

”That’s the owner of Li Yuan Farm,” Lin Muxue explained.

After they had exchanged contact info the previous night, she had seen his pictures on his Friends Circle, so she recognized him immediately.

Zhang Lin spotted Lin Muxue in the crowd at once.

’He had to admit, while her beautified photos and videos on Tiao Yin and her Friends Circle made her look like a total goddess, she was still stunning in person. Most importantly, her figure was incredible.’

’Moreover, his senior was twenty-nine years old, in her absolute prime, and possessed a unique, mature charm.’

’She was the very definition of the ”older woman” young guys online were always talking about dating. The perfect embodiment of the saying, ”A woman three years your senior is a bar of gold.”’

’That’s why it was a huge mistake when so many older women threw that ”bar of gold” saying around while completely neglecting their own appearance and figure.’
