Chapter 47 A small profit

After getting Luo Mu's consent, the sturdy man took a strawberry from the strawberry basket, first put it to his nose and sniffed it, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "It has a very fresh fruity fragrance. Just by smelling it, I can imagine its sweet and sour taste."

“And obviously no messy pesticides were used.”

The sturdy man handed the strawberry to the Infernape again, and the Infernape also put it in front of his nose and sniffed it carefully. After a moment, a look of intoxication suddenly appeared on his furry face, which always showed anger.

Seeing the inferno monkey like this, the sturdy man was surprised. He looked at Luo Mu and said with a smile: "The inferno monkey has a very sensitive nose. Even it looks intoxicated by the fruity fragrance. I am a little curious about how you grew such a successful crop in the first time.

"It's all thanks to the Pokémon."

Luo Mu replied with a smile. He did not think these things needed to be concealed. It would be better to say that the crops on the farm in the future could use this as a selling point.

"I see." The sturdy man was not surprised by this answer. Only the power of Pokémon could have such a magical effect. The quality and appearance of these strawberries were very good, and it was obvious that they had been taken care of by Pokémon.

Unfortunately, due to the limited energy and strength of Pokémon, many farms cannot guarantee that all the crops they produce are taken care of by Pokémon.

This is why the crops from Yalu Farm have been widely praised around the world, and this is inseparable from the farmer who serves as the gym leader.

The strong man checked the crops in the other baskets one by one, and after coming to the conclusion that although the quantity was not large, the quality was very good, the strong man's expression became even more enthusiastic.

He extended his hand and shook hands with Luo Mu before introducing himself: "My name is Sean. As you can see, I am a middleman who specializes in purchasing goods from farms and reselling them. Having said that, I believe that the current purchase price is not much different from if you go to the market and set up a stall to sell them yourself. If you think it's okay, I would like to purchase your crops."

"Hello, Mr. Sean." Luo Mu retracted his right hand and nodded slightly, which was considered to be an agreement with Sean's intention.

Originally, he contacted Sean through Peter in order to sell this crop.

"I just like straightforward farmers like you." Sean raised the corners of his mouth, and immediately took out professional weighing tools from the van and cooperated with Infernape to weigh.

Because they were all small batches of crops, and the cooperation between each man and each Pokémon was very good, Sean quickly gave Luo Mu his offer.

"Cabbage, eggplant, tomatoes and cucumbers. Not a lot of strawberries, but they're good quality. A total of 6,351 Alliance coins."

"Not bad." Luo Mu's eyes lit up. It only cost 600 Alliance Coins to buy the seeds. Even if the cost of fertilizing and time was added, the first harvest brought such considerable profits.

Not to mention that some crops can continue to bloom and bear fruit after a period of cultivation. Although it seems that he has been busy for more than half a month and has only harvested more than 6,000 Alliance Coins, Luo Mu is very clear that the accumulated benefits over the long term are the most considerable.

Sean smiled and said, "After all, the price I offer you is higher than the ordinary crops produced by other farms. Such high-quality crops are very popular among wealthy people."

Sean took out a stack of cash from his bag and counted it several times before handing it to Luo Mu.

After receiving the first money he had truly earned since opening the farm, Luo Mu counted it carefully, a simple smile appearing on his face.

Putting the small stack of bills into his pocket, Luo Mu asked, "Mr. Sean, do you buy items other than crops?"

"Oh? Tell me in detail!" Sean's eyes lit up. Could it be that Luo Mu had some good stuff in his hands?
Luo Mu brought a small box from under the fence. Inside the box were some soft and pretty cotton balls. "This is..." Sean's eyes widened and his mouth opened slightly, as if he was shocked by the object in front of him.

Luo Mu smiled and said, "This is the cotton wool that fell from the white fluff on our farm. We heard that it is very popular. There is no use for us to keep it, so we thought of selling it for money."

Sean took a deep breath, touched his suddenly swollen and painful temple, raised his head and relaxed for a long time, then said with regret: "I didn't expect you to have such a valuable thing here, but unfortunately I don't have the courage to buy it."

Luo Mu was a little confused: "Huh?"

Sean smiled bitterly and said, "Even in the Galar region, there are not too many white puffins. Only Yaluo Farm and a few top farms have large-scale white puffins that can stably produce cotton wool."

"The cotton wool produced by Bai Pengpeng is very delicate and beautiful whether it is made into thread or mixed with other materials to make cloth. I didn't expect to see it in the Padya region."

"According to my estimation, the cotton wool you have here only weighs about 50 to 100 grams, and one kilogram of it costs 6,000 Alliance Coins. Instead of selling it to me, I recommend that you accumulate a certain amount and bring it to the market in Ziqin Town to sell it."

Sean knew very well that as long as he purchased these cotton wools, he would be able to make some money from the subsequent sales.

But his work scope was only in Pingdie Town. This small town did not need such high-end raw materials, and he could not quit his job and spend time and energy to go to Ziqin Town to sell such a small amount of cotton wool.

Efforts are not proportional to gains.

Sean's words made Luo Mu fall into deep thought. He didn't expect that the cotton wool dropped by Bai Pangpeng was so valuable.

The cotton wool today is still shed after the young cotton plants evolve into white cotton plants. Most of the time, these cotton wools are used by white cotton plants as a medium to share nutrients with crops.

In other words, he has been spending money on farming all this time!

Suddenly I felt that the more than 6,000 Alliance Coins I just got were not worth much.

Luo Mu thought this in his mind, but his face did not show any signs of distraction. He nodded and thanked Sean for his advice.

Since Sean is unwilling to purchase these cotton wools, he will wait until he has accumulated some and then take them to the market in Ziqin Town to sell them.

He seemed to remember that the market there still sold items in the form of auctions?
After paying the money and receiving the goods, Sean and Infernape transferred the five baskets of crops to the baskets on his truck.

"Next time you have a crop to harvest, just contact me by phone!"

Sean said hello to Luo Mu, left his phone number, and then asked Infernape to drive the van away from the farm.

Luo Mu touched the newly added money in his trouser pocket, thought about the pleasing growth of grass in the ranch area, and murmured: "It's about time to make plans for the ranch area."
