Chapter 1089: Turn the Tables

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“It doesn’t look like it was done by a villager. 1 know their character.”

Although he had not been here for long, he was considered a top figure in Happiness Village.

Ordinary people would not dare to target him.

Although there were also people who came over to pick some fruits to eat, they knew their limits and would not take too much. This was normal.

The villagers were like that. They didn’t want you to be overly polite to them. At the same time, they wouldn’t be too polite to you.

However, chopping tree branches was too much.

“Could someone from another village have done it?” Yan Ci asked.

Lin Yi looked at the greenhouse. “The technique is quite professional. It doesn’t look like it was done by the villagers.”

There were indeed many villagers growing fruits nearby, but most of them were honest farmers. Even if they wanted it, they would tell Lin Yi first and would not do anything illegal.

After thinking about it, the most likely candidate was the man who came to look for him yesterday.

They seemed to be called Peng Chengjie. Although it was still uncertain, he was the most suspicious candidate.

“I see there’s a camera in the greenhouse. You’ll know when you review the recording.” “Cameras are only good for real-time surveillance. They don’t store many video clips. It’s unlikely we’ll find the suspect through the recording.”

“So what do we do? Should we call the police?”

“There’s no need to hurry. I’ll just make a call to settle this matter.”

“Do you want to stay here and watch the greenhouse tonight? What if they come again?” “The soil was taken away, and the tree branches were already cut. There’s nothing else here worth their attention.” Lin Yi said.

“Let’s go back. I’m going to deal with this matter.”

Before leaving, Lin Yi picked a few ripe peaches and apples for Yan Ci before returning to Zhonghai.

On the way back, Lin Yi originally wanted Chen Bingqiang to investigate this matter. However, thinking about it carefully, it was useless even if he was asked to investigate. There were no cameras in the village. Although there were surveillance cameras in the town, they were all broken. Even if the gods came, it was impossible for them to find out anything without any information.

Ring ring ring!

Lin Yi had just driven to Zhonghai when Du Yao called.

“Brother Lin, someone saw your car just now. Did you come back to the village?”

“I went back to the vegetable garden and greenhouse just now. Now, I’m back in Zhonghai. Is something wrong?”

“Oh, oh, the situation at home is quite good, right? Nothing happened, right?”

“Yes, yes? What’s wrong?”

“When we were eating just now, 1 heard from my father that someone called him last night and said that he wanted to buy our family’s vegetables and fruits. He even asked a lot about you. My father is an honest person and told him everything he knows. I keep feeling that the other party was not a good person. 1 was afraid that something would have happened, so 1 called you.”

“It’s fine. Everything’s at home is fine.”

Lin Yi didn’t tell them the truth in case they got angry.

After all, Du Dahai did not do it on purpose.

“I’m glad you’re okay. 1 thought you were being targeted by a scammer.”

“Don’t think too much. How can there be so many scammers in this world?” Lin Yi said.

“If you have time now, go and find out the number that they used to call your father. Send it to me later.”

“I’ll do it now.”

“Yeah.”

Not long after he hung up, Du Yao sent him a WeChat message.

Lin Yi handed the phone to Yan Ci.

“Use your phone to make this call and ask who the other party is.”

Yan Ci nodded and called the person according to Lin Yi’s instructions.

“Hello, the number you have dialed is unavailable. Please check again before dialing.”

After hanging up the phone, Yan Ci said,

“The other party seems to have planned this. They used a burner number.”

“It doesn’t matter. I’ve already guessed who it is.”

With that, Lin Yi took out the business card Peng Chengjie had given him yesterday and dialed it.

Sacred Farm Development Co., Ltd., Biological Research and Development Laboratory.

Peng Chengjie was sitting in the director’s office, exchanging the results of the experiment with the director of the laboratory, Sun Qiang.

“Director Sun, what’s the result?”

“It’s a little strange.” Sun Qiang said.

“The soil sample you brought back contains a lot of microorganisms. However, with modern technology, this soil formula is quite easy to make.”

“In other words, there’s nothing special about the formula of the soil, right?” Peng Chengjie asked. “And what do you mean by strange?”

“You can say that. It’s not difficult for me to produce this soil, but 1 can’t guarantee that I can grow such fruits. Even imported seeds might not produce such fine specimens.”

“That’s strange,” Peng Chengjie said doubtfully.

Dang dang dang…

While they were talking, there was a knock on the door. A man in a white coat walked in.

“Director Peng, Director Sun, we found an unknown substance in the soil sample. We used all kinds of methods, but we couldn’t find its exact composition.”

“Where is it? Let me see.”

The young lab technician handed over the latest lab report.

There was a special substance inside that was marked.

“That’s it. In one cubic meter of soil, there are only o.i grams of this substance. We’re a little uncertain right now. Is there an error in the implementation, or is it this unidentified substance that caused the nutritional content of the fruit to soar?”

“I understand. Try your best to analyze it and see if you can come up with a result.”

“Got it, Director Sun.”

Peng Chengjie looked at the experimental report. “Director Sun, could there be a problem here?”

“I know the standard of the laboratory technicians. Under normal circumstances, there shouldn’t be any mistakes. Coupled with the current situation, this unknown substance is very likely to be the key to the problem,” Sun Qiang said.

“To summarize, the soil and seeds did not play a decisive role. The most important factor was his planting method. Therefore, I speculate that he must have added this unknown nutrition element to the soil, causing the fruits he planted to be unique.”

Peng Chengjie lit a cigarette and hesitated for a long time.

“I also brought back quite a number of tree branches. Can you cultivate them by grafting them?”

“That’s possible, but the key factor isn’t here. Even if it’s nurtured, the quality in all aspects will be much worse. It won’t reach the heaven-defying level you are expecting.”

Peng Chengjie rubbed his chin. “If that’s the case, it’s a little difficult.”

“Indeed, the key technology is in his hands. Unless we deal directly with him, we won’t be able to replicate the results.”

“I know that, too, but I’ve already paid a visit to talk to him. He just won’t budge. This is difficult. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have stolen all this stuff last night.”

“Boss Peng, I have an idea that we can try,” Yao Kunpeng said.

“Tell me.”

“We can take the legal path to attack him. We can say that this soil was newly cultivated by our laboratory and was stolen by him. Then, we can pull some strings with the court.. If he doesn’t hand over the technology, we’ll put him in jail!”
