Chapter 201: Dogtooth Grass Planting! Instantly Snatched Up!
Chapter 201: Dogtooth Grass Planting! Instantly Snatched Up!
Zhang Lin saw the new video posted by Chen Xingke and found the expert quite amusing.
Just when they were criticizing their farm, he turned around and apologized so quickly, even considering joining Liyuan Farm.
However, Linyuan Farm hadn't considered this yet.
Ma Jun hadn't mentioned needing more people.
They could always recruit when Ma Jun said they needed help.
But the firefly night scene live stream at Linyuan Farm continued to attract more viewers.
The number of people in the live stream was rapidly increasing.
The firefly night scene was incredibly captivating, and most young people today have never seen fireflies.
This became the biggest draw.
So, more and more people were being attracted to Linyuan Farm's live stream.
Liu Xian and Zhao Han admired the scene for a bit before leaving.
Suddenly, only Zhang Lin was left with Fu Yao in the rainbow flower sea.
Fu Yao was live streaming, and he was watching beside her.
Soon, Lin Muxue arrived and said, "The firefly night scene live stream is going viral, with almost 200,000 people watching, and the number is still rising. Do you know what this means?"
Zhang Lin was surprised by the numbers: "That many?"
He naturally knew what this meant.
Even the top streamers on Xiaoyin might not have this many viewers.
This could be an opportunity to boost the farm's followers to 20 million.
Reaching 20 million followers was a significant milestone.
According to the game system's previous rewards, each milestone in fan growth would grant special construction blueprints, such as camping sites, bamboo mazes, and more.
Lin Muxue nodded, "Xiaoyin contacted us, hoping we could do a daily live stream of the firefly night scene, and they will promote us."
Zhang Lin said, "Agree to it. There's no loss, and it will help us gain more followers."
More followers were always a good thing.
Even if they reached the 20 million milestone, it would help them accumulate more followers for the next one.
"Okay, I'll reply to Xiaoyin." Lin Muxue nodded and took out her phone to operate it. Soon, she joined Fu Yao in the live stream.
It seemed they had negotiated successfully.
"Muxue!" Fu Yao exclaimed in surprise when she saw her.
"Yao Yao, keep streaming. I'll watch beside you," Lin Muxue said with a smile.
"Okay," Fu Yao nodded.
The sound of Lin Muxue and Fu Yao together made the live stream audience cheer, urging Fu Yao to focus the camera on them.
After all, both were famous internet celebrities at Linyuan Farm, known for their beauty. One was a youthful girl, the other a mature woman, each with their distinct charm, making them very popular among the farm's male followers.
Now that they were together, it was a perfect opportunity for some fun.
After a night passed, Zhang Lin woke up the next morning to a familiar morning reaction.
But reason overcame desire.
He endured!
An hour later, Zhang Lin and Fu Yao went out, and Lin Yan had already prepared breakfast.
During breakfast, Lin Yan said, "Yao Yao, you made it to Xiaoyin's trending topics today!"
Zhang Lin and Fu Yao checked their phones.
Not only did Fu Yao trend, but Linyuan Farm did too.
The reason was, of course, last night's firefly night scene.
The trending topic included a screenshot of Fu Yao's live stream and the data: over 300,000 people watched the firefly night scene live stream simultaneously last night.
This ranked in the top 5 for concurrent viewers yesterday.
The popularity today was evident.
He could foresee that many internet celebrities would rush to the farm to live stream the firefly night scene.
Whenever a viral trend appeared, these people always flocked to it.
Now, Linyuan Farm's firefly night scene was that viral trend.
After breakfast, Zhang Lin took Fu Yao to the farm.
This was her last day off for the National Day holiday. She would return to school the next day, so they couldn't spend as much time together.
Upon arriving at Linyuan Farm, Zhang Lin saw Lin Muxue reporting, "Mr. Zhang, the county has leveled some of the land and asked if we can start planting pasture grass on the leveled areas?"
"We can start planting," Zhang Lin nodded.
With Ma Jun as a cover, he didn't need to worry about the faster growth rate of the pasture grass. He was just a farmer, so why should he know why the grass grows faster?
If they asked, they should ask Ma Jun.
Zhang Lin knew Lin Muxue's question was about the dogtooth grass seeds. Since they were planting special pasture grass, they couldn't use regular seeds.
He hadn't bought the dogtooth grass seeds yet.
So, he said, "I'll have Liu De fetch the dogtooth grass seeds and hand them over to you for arrangement."
"Okay," Lin Muxue nodded.
Without hesitation, Zhang Lin accessed the procurement market in his mind and clicked to purchase dogtooth grass seeds.
One acre required 10 pounds of dogtooth grass seeds, so he spent 500,000 yuan to buy 5,000 pounds, enough to plant 500 acres.
After purchasing, he headed to the core warehouse and saw it filled with bags of seeds.
He picked up a bag and checked the note:
【Dogtooth Grass Seeds: Quality 1】
【This is a specially researched and mutated pasture grass seed. The grass grown from it has special effects: +1 Fragrant Green Grass, +1 Mood Enhancement, +1 Refreshing, +1 Aesthetic Value, +1 Camera-Friendly, +1 Liked by Grazing Animals, +1 Nutritional Value for Grazing Animals, +1 Faster Growth, +1 Vigorous Life Force.】
He then called Liu De and instructed, "Liu De, take people to move these seeds and coordinate with Director Lin."
"Sure thing, boss." Liu De nodded.
The employees recruited through the game didn't question where the dogtooth grass seeds came from; they simply followed orders.
Soon, Liu De called over some farm workers to help load the dogtooth grass onto five Great Wall Pickups and three three-wheeled transport vehicles. He then contacted Lin Muxue.
Lin Muxue promptly reached out to the county and arranged for Liu De to deliver the dogtooth grass seeds to the prepared fields. She also accompanied them.
Upon arrival, they found Zhao Han already waiting.
"Director Lin, this is Zhu Tao, the leader of the team responsible for planting forage crops. His team has extensive experience in this field," Zhao Han introduced Zhu Tao to Lin Muxue.
Lin Muxue also introduced Liu De to Zhu Tao: "This is the head of our farm's agricultural department. He will be responsible for delivering the seeds."
Zhu Tao exchanged contact information with Liu De and then went to inspect the dogtooth grass seeds.
His team was invited because of their expertise in planting forage crops, so he was determined to do a good job.
If everything went smoothly, the planting of 50,000 acres of grassland would ensure his team's livelihood for a long time.
At the vehicles, Zhu Tao called over his team to help Liu De unload the seeds. He opened a bag to check the seeds: "Hmm, these dogtooth grass seeds seem more plump than usual."
With his experience, he knew he wasn't wrong.
There was indeed a difference.
Lin Muxue and Zhao Han were well aware that these were special forage crops developed by Ma Jun, which were different from the usual ones.
They just didn't understand why Ma Jun was so capable, managing to produce so much in such a short time at Liyuan Farm.
However, there was no need to pry. The more capable Ma Jun was, the better it would be for Liyuan Farm and the city.
Zhu Tao's team, indeed, had extensive experience. After confirming that the seeds were fine, they started planting the dogtooth grass in an organized manner.
Seeing that the handover was complete, Lin Muxue drove back to the office center, where she had other tasks to handle.
At the office center, she went directly to the operations department. When she entered, she found Liu Qian and her team busy, even the security head, Ye Ling, was there.
"Manager Ye, is your security department ready?" Lin Muxue asked Ye Ling first.
Ye Ling replied, "We've already reassigned some personnel to the night shift at the Rainbow Flower Sea. We can ensure that the firefly night view opening will go smoothly. Once the HR department recruits more security guards, we can return to our original positions."
Indeed, Zhang Lin didn't plan to recruit more employees from the game unless necessary. The current game-recruited employees were sufficient.
The grassroots management for the projects was mostly handled by game-recruited employees, ensuring everything ran smoothly.
Moreover, the system had enough security personnel, including Ye Ling and his team.
If the farm needed more security in the future, they could recruit from the real world, and the game-recruited security could focus on the core areas.
Satisfied with Ye Ling's answer, Lin Muxue turned to Liu Qian, "How's the online situation?"
Liu Qian explained, "Everyone is asking when we'll open the ticket sales for the firefly night view. I'm sure many people are eagerly waiting to buy tickets."
Lin Muxue nodded, "Alright, let's start the ticket sales for the firefly night view. Oh, and check if President Zhang wants to come over."
"Sure." Liu Qian dialed Zhang Lin's number.
In the office, Zhang Lin had just finished some paperwork and was about to check on the design work with Fu Yao when Liu Qian's call came in.
He answered and said to Fu Yao, "Yao Yao, the farm is opening the ticket sales for the firefly night view. Do you want to come to the operations department to see how it goes?"
"Sure!" Fu Yao agreed, getting up to follow him to the operations department.
"President Zhang!"
"President Zhang."
Lin Muxue and Liu Qian greeted him.
"No need to be formal, let's get started!" Zhang Lin smiled.
"Alright," Liu Qian nodded and instructed the operations team to start the ticket sales for the firefly night view.
A multimedia screen already displayed a number: 5000, the number of tickets available.
A countdown timer also appeared on the screen.
When the countdown reached zero, the ticket sales would officially begin.
Online, countless people were eagerly waiting for the countdown to end, ready to snatch up the tickets as soon as possible.
At the farm's operations department, the countdown finally hit zero. In that instant, the number 5000 dropped to 0.
"Sold out already?" Zhang Lin asked.
"Sold out," Liu Qian confirmed.
"It only took a few seconds. Why did I come over?" Zhang Lin was taken aback.
The speed was incredible.
Not just him, but countless people online were waiting for the countdown to end and were ready to buy tickets the moment it did.
But in that instant, all they saw was a message: "Tickets Sold Out!"
Many were left in disbelief.
Waited all this time for this?
Who had such lightning-fast reflexes?
In another part of Fujian Province, a man clicked to buy a ticket and saw the "Sold Out" message. His face turned dark, and he angrily threw his water cup to the ground.
He knew this meant that Liyuan Farm had too many visitors, who had snatched up all the tickets in an instant.
Why did they have so many visitors?
Why did they get to have so much?
This was unfair.
The man's face darkened further, "Damn, there's no other way. I can't just sit here and do nothing. I have to take a desperate gamble."
