Chapter 168: A Good Thing
Chi Xiyou listened to Duan Yixin’s answer and stared at the strawberry again. He then looked at Duan Yixin again and asked, "Is this the second harvest? Have the strawberries gotten bigger?"
Duan Yixin nodded and said, "I wonder what caused the difference."
Typically, the fruit remains the same no matter how many times it is harvested. Unless there are external factors affecting the tree, the fruit is unlikely to be larger during the next harvest.
Chi Xiyou thought for a while and asked, "Could it be your liquid fertilizer that caused the difference?"
Thinking that the harvest time was five days shorter than before, Duan Yixin thoughtfully looked at the strawberry in her hand.
She pondered on Chi Xiyou’s words and thoughts, ’What Elder Brother Xiyou said may be true. It seems that I need to find an opportunity to conduct more in-depth tests and experiments on the seeds of this world. But right now, this is a good thing. Because in our current situation, shorter harvest times and higher harvest results are advantageous.’
Duan Yixin put the strawberry back into the wooden bucket, looked at Chi Xiyou, and said, "I don’t know the answer either. However, it is a good thing that the strawberries are bigger now. If we could plant more plants, we might be able to hold on until the flood waters recede."
Chi Xiyou nodded in agreement and said, "Mhm. You are right."
After a moment of silence, he added, "Xin Xin, I have already told my father and Ru’er about the hydroponic system. I think we should start sowing seeds as soon as possible before the food runs out."
