He asked some familiar friends. One took five kilos, another took ten kilos. Although it was not much, it slowly grew into a mountain.

This was also based on the friendship that Zhang Cheng had fostered with them. They looked upon him as an upright man.

Eventually, Zhang Cheng decided to stop this bulk wholesaling.

After all, it was too troublesome. Even if Zhang Cheng got an electric tricycle after work, he could only sell so much, compared to what was practically years of harvests.

He got off work.

Zhang Cheng arrived at the flower, bird, fish, and insect market.

He was going to buy some ginseng seeds.

With the accelerated passage of time in the Heavenly Dimension, similar high-yield varieties became Zhang Cheng’s better choice.

He walked into a store and asked around to gauge prices. 10 yuan per grain. Zhang Cheng turned around and left. This was obviously a scam.

He found another store where it was 5 yuan per grain. Zhang Cheng couldn’t help but feel helpless. If it wasn’t for the fact that online shopping required a certain amount of time, he would definitely have bought it online.

However, after haggling over the price, the boss gave him more than 100 grains and charged him 200 yuan.

It was more or less the same as online shopping.

He then asked about the saplings or seeds of small leaf red sandalwood trees.

Only then did he know that saplings were more expensive, especially those that had been growing for a certain period of time. The seeds were cheap, and he even gave Zhang Cheng a handful containing dozens of them.

Zhang Cheng took the seeds and left.

When he got home, he entered the Heavenly Dimension.

After clearing out all the apple trees, Zhang Cheng planted the ginseng seeds and the small leaf red sandalwood seeds respectively.

Compared to apples, ginseng grew much slower. It took a few hours for it to take root and sprout, and a small seedling to finally grow. In other words, it took slightly under half a year for it to sprout and grow.

Rosewood was a little faster, but not by much.

Zhang Cheng clicked his tongue and went to bed.

The next day, Zhang Cheng got up early. After borrowing the landlord’s electric tricycle, he took a cart full of apples to work.

Some of them were repeat customers, and they were all quite satisfied. After all, Zhang Cheng’s apples were not bad. He was basically selling them for one-third the price.

The day’s work ended just like that. Zhang Cheng rode the electric tricycle home.

On the way, he passed by a fast-food restaurant and bought a serving of rice. After buying some meat and vegetable dishes, he bought some beer.

After dealing with dinner, Zhang Cheng entered the Heavenly Dimension.

After a day, three years had passed.

The saplings of the small-leaved red sandalwood tree had grown a lot, but they looked just like weeds.

On the contrary, the ginseng looked very luxuriant.

However, Zhang Cheng looked at the roots of the ginseng through the soil. They were still small.

But Zhang Cheng was not in a hurry.

It would only take three months. Even if their growth was delayed, it would take a year and a half. He would be able to harvest something.

When the harvesting began, it would rope in tens of millions. It would reach figures that folk like him would never see in their lifetime.

Moreover, compared to the fertilizer guzzling apple trees, the rosewood and the ginseng did not consume much fertilizer.

In one day, they had only used about ten kilograms of fertilizer.

This made Zhang Cheng very satisfied. Then, he began to search for information on the prices of rosewood and ginseng on his phone.

After all, he had planted these things to make money, and they would not remain in his hands. Therefore, he had to sell them in half a year. He had to be prepared to start learning about them now.

However, there were all kinds of information on the internet. Some spoke of thousands, or hundreds, others spoke of hundreds of thousands or millions. He could not make heads or tails of it.

However, the ingredients that could be made out of them were definitely not cheap.

This made Zhang Cheng feel much better.

The next day after work, Zhang Cheng thought about it and borrowed the landlord’s electric tricycle again. He put a cart full of apples in it and planned to sell the few tons of apples stored in the space.

After all, if he tried to consume these apples himself, it would take several lifetimes.

His dimension could be divided into different specialties for planting and storage.

The planting space was naturally the whole acre of land.

The storage space was basically a gardening shed. It never once took physical form in Zhang Cheng’s presence. The contents could be accessed with a single thought. At present, Zhang Cheng only knew that the storage space was stationary and what it looked like when it was dormant.

However, the items in the storage could not be exchanged for space points.

As for how big the storage space was, Zhang Cheng had no clue.

At least, tons of apples vanished without a hassle.

When he reached the street, Zhang Cheng found a place that usually had many vegetable stalls and fruit stalls.

Soonafter, someone came up to ask for a price. When word got out that his apples were one yuan per kilo, his business immediately became very prosperous.

In less than an hour, over 200 kilos of apples were sold out.

Zhang Cheng chuckled and rode his bike home.

For a few days in a row, he went to work during the day and sold apples after work. Zhang Cheng’s life had grown very comfortable.

The ginseng and rosewood in the Heavenly Dimension were growing, which pleased him all the more.

“Little Cheng, my relative has a daughter who is about the same age as you. You can meet her the day after tomorrow when you are free.” Sister Yu knew that Zhang Cheng had broken up with his girlfriend. She wanted to introduce another one to this honest and diligent youth.

Now that she had the chance, she immediately introduced her to Zhang Cheng.

Zhang Cheng nodded when he heard that. So be it.

The day after tomorrow, Zhang Cheng shaved his head and took a shower. After dressing up, he put on a white cotton shirt and black pants and rushed to the appointed place.

The day before yesterday, Zhang Cheng had added Sister Yu’s relative’s daughter on WeChat. They chatted for a while and felt that it was alright. That was how their first meeting went.

At the river bank where they had agreed to meet.

A woman in a light pink dress stood at the side, quietly looking at her phone.

Zhang Cheng thought for a moment before walking over. “Are you Yu Duoduo?”

The woman raised her head to look at Zhang Cheng. After sizing him up, she nodded. “Yes, I’m Yu Duoduo. Are you Zhang Cheng?”

She was not particularly pretty and looked rather ordinary, but she was more than enough for him.

“Yes, sorry for troubling you.”

Yu Duoduo smiled gently. “You’re too polite.”

It was their first time meeting each other. In any case, the two of them had a good impression of each other.

“Then let’s eat first?” Zhang Cheng said with a smile.

Yu Duoduo nodded and agreed with Zhang Cheng’s arrangement.

They walked into the riverbed to fish.

The waiter probably saw that the two of them had just met, so he brought the two of them to a quiet corner.

He ordered some meat and vegetable dishes.

Zhang Cheng said, “My name is Zhang Cheng. I’m 26 years old and unmarried. I’ve dated two girlfriends before, but we’ve already broken up. I have no bad habits, no debts, and no house or car. I’m currently working at the Sunshine Screw Factory. An ordinary worker can get around 5,500 yuan a month.”

Upon hearing Zhang Cheng’s self-introduction, Yu Duoduo laughed again.

“Hello, my name is Yu Duoduo. I’m twenty-five years old this year. I’m unmarried and don’t have any bad habits. I have some savings and I’m still paying off loans. I’m currently working at the Moonlight Electronics Factory. I’m a quality inspector and I get around seven thousand a month.”

She actually imitated Zhang Cheng’s self-introduction and told him about her own situation.

This made Zhang Cheng smile as well.

They chatted casually. After dinner, the two of them parted ways.

The next day at work, Sister Yu reported back that it didn’t work out.

She didn’t feel anything special towards Zhang Cheng.

After all, this result wasn’t too surprising, because Zhang Cheng’s condition was considered to be of the poorer side in this city.

Basically, they couldn’t even think about buying a house, because even a house in a bad location would cost about 100,000 yuan per square meter..
