Rebirth 70: I am a Koi

The door of the warehouse creaked harshly because it had been in disrepair for many years. I lit a kerosene lamp, and the weak light illuminated the mess in front of me.

I searched through boxes and cabinets, and finally found a packet of forgotten seeds in a corner. Dust covered it, almost covering its original color. I carefully picked it up, blew away the dust, and carefully identified it under the weak light. Suddenly, I was filled with ecstasy... Isn't this the legendary "green treasure" with high yield and rich nutritional value that I read in a book?

I held the packet of seeds tightly, as if I had grabbed the last straw. If it was really "Green Treasure", then my planting base would be saved!

I ran home excitedly, and couldn't wait to tell Bai Hanchuan the good news. He had been running around for me these days and had lost a lot of weight.

"Hanchuan, look!" I ran to him breathlessly, opened my palm, and showed him the packet of seeds. "What is this? Do you know it?"

Bai Hanchuan was stunned at first, then he picked up the seed and looked at it carefully, frowning slightly: "This... I seem to have seen it in a book, let me think about it..."

"Green Treasure! This is the seed of Green Treasure!" I said excitedly, "I remember reading in a book that this plant does not require a high growth environment, but its yield is amazing, and its nutritional value is extremely high..."

Bai Hanchuan's eyes gradually lit up. After all, he had seen a lot of things, so he quickly calmed down and analyzed: "If this is true, then this is indeed a huge opportunity! But..."

I understood his concerns and said, "I know. We need to first confirm whether this is the real 'Green Treasure' seed, and then find a way to sell it."

"That's right." Bai Hanchuan nodded, "I have contacted the best agricultural expert team in the city and asked them to come for identification tomorrow morning. As for the sales..." His eyes deepened, "Have you forgotten my old business? If this batch of 'Green Treasures' can really be grown, I am confident that I can convince Jiahe Supermarket to cooperate with us!"

Jiahe Supermarket is a large national chain supermarket. If we can cooperate with them, we won’t have to worry about the sales of “Green Treasure”.

A flame of hope ignited in my heart, as if I saw a ray of light in the long night.

The next morning, the expert team arrived at the planting base. They carefully examined the seeds, analyzed the soil and climate conditions, and finally came to the conclusion...

I waited anxiously, my palms sweaty.

"How is it?" Bai Hanchuan asked, with a barely perceptible hint of nervousness in his voice.

The head of the expert team pushed up his glasses and said slowly: "According to our appraisal, this is indeed..."

"Boom boom boom——"

A hurried knock on the door interrupted the expert's words. My heart tightened and an ominous premonition came over me.

"I'll go open the door." I said to Bai Hanchuan and turned to walk towards the door.

The person standing outside the door was my neighbor. He looked panicked and said in a hurried tone: "Jinli, it's bad, your dad...your dad..."

"What happened to Dad?!" My heart sank and I grabbed my neighbor's arm, asking anxiously.

"Your dad... fainted in the field! He has been sent to the hospital now!" The neighbor's voice was trembling, and he was obviously also frightened.

"What?!" My eyes went dark and I almost fainted. Bai Hanchuan held me and said decisively: "Don't panic, I'll drive you to the hospital!"

Along the way, my heart felt like it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and it became difficult to breathe. I held Bai Hanchuan's hand tightly, my nails almost digging into his flesh, but he didn't say a word, just held me tightly back to give me strength.

When I arrived at the hospital, I rushed to the emergency room like crazy and finally saw my father at the end of the corridor. He was lying on the bed with a pale face, and his already thin body looked even thinner.

"Dad!" I rushed to the bed, tears welling up in my eyes, "What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

My father slowly opened his eyes and saw me. He smiled weakly: "Silly girl, I'm fine, I'm just too tired these days..."

"Dad, you are so sick, why are you still going to the fields?" I scolded him with concern.

"I'm just worried about you..." The father sighed, "I heard that you found the seeds of 'Green Treasure', so I wanted to help you..."

It turned out that although my father was weak, he was worried when he heard that I had found the "Green Treasure" seeds, and insisted on going to the fields to check the situation. With his many years of planting experience, he gave me a lot of valuable suggestions.

"Dad, don't worry, I have found a team of experts and they will help me." I held my father's hand and comforted him softly.

My father nodded and smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, okay... I feel relieved that you have this intention..."

After settling my father down, I walked out of the ward tiredly. Bai Hanchuan had been waiting outside the door silently. When he saw me come out, he stepped forward and gently embraced me in his arms.

"Everything will be fine." He whispered in my ear, his voice gentle and firm, like a warm current flowing into my heart.

I took a deep breath and tried to calm my panic. Yes, I can't fall down, I still have a lot of things to do!

I took out my cell phone and called Lin Xiao. "Hey, Lin Xiao, can you come and help me..."

Lin Xiao rushed to the hospital quickly. She had already learned what happened from Bai Hanchuan. Seeing my haggard appearance, she hugged me distressedly.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything!" Lin Xiao patted my shoulder, "I'll take good care of your dad. As for the promotion of 'Green Treasure', leave it to me!"

Although Lin Xiao looks careless at ordinary times, she is always so reliable at critical moments. She used her personal connections and online marketing skills to quickly open up online sales for "Green Treasure".

The expert team also worked overtime to conduct in-depth research on "Green Treasure", and they found that...

The expert team also worked overtime to conduct in-depth research on "Green Treasure". They found that "Green Treasure" not only has high yield and strong disease resistance, but is also rich in various vitamins and minerals, and its nutritional value far exceeds that of ordinary vegetables.

"This is simply a miracle!" Professor Wang from the expert group excitedly said to me while holding the test report, "The emergence of 'Green Treasure' will play a huge role in promoting the development of my country's agriculture and the health level of the people!"

After hearing what the experts said, I finally felt relieved. I knew I had succeeded! "Green Treasure" is not only my hope, but also the hope of all farmers!

In order to bring Green Treasure to the market as soon as possible, I decided to conduct trial sales in several large supermarkets in the city. Lin Xiao helped me contact the person in charge of the supermarket and carefully designed promotional posters and tasting activities.

On the first day of the trial sale, the "Green Treasure" stand in the supermarket was crowded with customers who came to consult and buy. People were full of curiosity and interest in this new type of vegetable with emerald green color and fresh taste.

"Girl, how much is this vegetable? It looks very fresh!" an aunt asked, pointing at the "Green Treasure".

"Auntie, this is a new vegetable variety cultivated in our base, called 'Green Treasure', please try it!" I introduced enthusiastically and handed over a small piece of cut "Green Treasure".

The aunt took a bite and her eyes lit up immediately: "Hmm! This tastes good! Sweet and refreshing, with a fresh fragrance! How much is one pound? Give me two pounds!"

"Okay!" I took the basket handed to me by the aunt with a smile and weighed two kilograms of "Green Treasure" skillfully.

In this way, customers bought one pound of "Green Treasure" and two pounds of it. Soon, the "Green Treasure" I brought was sold out. Looking at the empty shelves, I quickly called the base and asked them to send more "Green Treasure" tomorrow.

During the trial sales period, "Green Treasure" was warmly welcomed by consumers and the order volume increased rapidly. Every day, there was an endless stream of vehicles transporting fresh "Green Treasure" from the base to various supermarkets in the city, and I became increasingly busy.

"Jinli, look!" Lin Xiao pointed at the phone screen and said to me excitedly, "'Green Treasure' has become a hot search! Now there are businesses all over the country who want to be agents for our products!"

I took the phone and saw photos and introductions of "Green Treasure" on the screen, and the comments were full of positive reviews. I scrolled the screen, watching the orders pouring in, and hope rekindled in my heart. At this moment, the phone suddenly rang, and I looked down and saw it was...

It's Bai Hanchuan! "Hello, Hanchuan?" I answered the phone, my joy in my tone. The success of "Green Treasure" also made me more eager to share this joy with him. "Yes, it's me." On the other end of the phone, Bai Hanchuan's voice was as steady as ever, but with a hint of imperceptible fatigue. "I've heard about the listing of Green Treasure. You've done a great job." Hearing his affirmation, my heart felt as sweet as honey. "This is all thanks to your support at the beginning, and..." I wanted to say that there was also the help of the space system, but I swallowed it back when it came to my lips. Some things are better not to let him know. "And your father and Lin Xiao's help, right?" Bai Hanchuan seemed to guess what I was thinking, and added in a gentle tone. I smiled and replied, "Yes, thanks to them, they have helped me share a lot of things during this period." "You have been too busy recently, so make sure to rest." There was a hint of heartache in Bai Hanchuan's tone, "I am almost done with my things here, and I will go back to help you in a few days." "Really? That's great!" I almost jumped up with excitement. There have been too many things at the base during this period. I haven't seen him for a long time, and I miss him unspeakably in my heart. Just as I was immersed in joy, there was suddenly a noisy sound from the other end of the phone, vaguely mixed with a few hurried shouts. "Hanchuan? Hanchuan? What's wrong with you?" My heart tightened, and I asked anxiously. There was silence for a few seconds on the other end of the phone, and then Bai Hanchuan's low voice came: "Jinli, there is a problem here..."
