While Ai was busy with school studies and two projects, Lori came to Ai with a small piece of amethyst.

"Xiao Ai, look, I raised a piece of amethyst." Lori hurriedly took it out and offered the treasure. Xiao Ai also saw Amethyst for the first time, and he didn't see it last time on the interstellar ship. Thinking about it now, Xiao Ai realized that she may have been born with a sense of closeness to energy crystals. At first, she didn't pay attention, after all, energy crystals were very expensive in the interstellar era, who didn't like them, so she felt that she liked energy crystals just because she was a money fan, after all, there was anyone in the entire interstellar who didn't like energy crystals. But if you look closely, you will feel that this sense of closeness is different from the general money-addicted mentality, as if the two are attracted to each other.

"Lori, why did you go out of your way to buy an amethyst?"

"I'm going to invest in you." Lori said cheerfully.

"What??" Xiao Ai was surprised, "What do you want to do, Lori?" ”

"I want you to use this amethyst to grow more things, if the vegetables and fruits grown can absorb the energy in the energy crystal, we can sell these vegetables and fruits for money, so that the money makes money, can't we make a lot of money?"

"However, you also agreed that I should keep a low profile."

"We can sell anonymously on Star.com, and when we pick up the goods on the spot, we also pick them up anonymously in the warehouse, so that no one knows that we are selling. And I thought about it, we can not mention the energy in the energy crystal, only mention the efficacy, and borrow other reasons, just like the last time the green lotus juice was mixed with the yellow leaves of the silk. ”

In this way, Xiao Ai is a little moved, because practice brings true knowledge, whether she has skills, what are the characteristics of skills, and what are the causes, these problems are more complex than one another, but if you solve the above puzzles, grow more plants with energy crystals, and investigate the characteristics of these plants, it is an important practical link. If you open a store anonymously, you can at least have a lot of samples to refer to and study.

Xiao Ai agreed to Lori's proposal, and the two of them put together a plan. First of all, you have to go to the Naxi Square Dungeon, located in the northeast corner of the imperial capital, to rent a password warehouse for trading. What's more, you don't need to use your real name to rent a warehouse, as long as you pay a full deposit.

Secondly, the two plan to sell on the three-dimensional login interface of the star network, and the reason why they do not choose the two-dimensional login interface is mainly because the monitoring of the two-dimensional login interface is stricter than the three-dimensional login interface, and the two-dimensional login interface cannot be anonymous in the true sense. Lori originally proposed to set up a stall, but it takes time to set up a stall, and both of them are very busy with their studies, so they don't have enough time to set up a stall, and finally decided to use the consignment method to put the product on consignment in other stores, but the consignment is anonymous, that is, the store does not know the identity of the real consignee, strictly speaking, this kind of consignment is not allowed by the star network, so the store commission should reach five or five. But because they were just starting out in business, the two planned to err on the side of caution. In the end, they chose a flower shop and a fruit shop, and if they grew ornamental plants, they sold them on consignment from a florist, and if they were vegetables and fruits, they sold them at a fruit store. Negotiating with the store will require you to hide your true appearance, so Lori suggested that Xiao Ai should hurry up and earn points on the Star Network.

Once the sales channel has been finalized, it is time to prepare the goods. Ai now has a red crystal in his hand, and Lori provides another amethyst. Both energy crystals are relatively small, but according to the data, the energy content of red crystals will be larger than that of the amethyst mentioned in the same category.

After careful consideration, Xiao Ai decided to use red crystal to grow Portis oranges first. "Why?" Lori was puzzled: "Portis orange is not delicious at all, it is very sour and astringent when eaten directly." "Portis oranges are mainly used to soak in water and drink, which can relieve respiratory diseases and also have a good maintenance effect on the lungs. In short, it is a fruit that is partial to medicinal herbs.

"It's because Portis orange has the characteristics of medicinal herbs that we can sell it at a high price, if it's just an ordinary fruit, why should others buy it so expensive, after all, we don't dare to hype up what characteristics our fruit has, but if we can't sell it at a high price, we can't recover our costs, let alone make money." Lori was right to think about it.

It is not difficult to grow Portis oranges, and they have never planted them before, so they only dare to plant one first. Xiao Ai first bought a medium-sized flower pot and a small Portis orange sapling. Then bury the small red crystal given by Casey in the nutrient soil of the pot. The red crystal is buried next to the middle root of the sapling, not close to the root, mainly because the sapling and the root will grow again. Portis oranges love shade, so Xiao Ai usually only needs to pay attention to not letting the saplings get exposed to the sun, and water them twice in the morning and evening. To speed things up, she also uses fast-growing powder, which isn't as immediate as catalytic powder, but does allow plants to grow faster to a certain extent. So, a month and a half later, Portis oranges were fruitful. After another ten days, a tree full of Portis oranges ripened. The normal Portis orange is the size of a fist, while the Portis orange grown by Xiao Ai is still the normal size, but the color has changed to orange-red, which is the typical color of orange mixed with red.

I picked a basket, but I don't know what the effect will be. So Xiao Ai first took out ten red Portis oranges and put them on consignment in the fruit store, the price of the consignment was very low, only 8% of ordinary Portis oranges, but the requirement was that the buyer should write feedback after drinking Portis orange water to determine the special effects of Portis oranges.

At first, the consignment shop thought that Xiao Ai would take out some amazing smuggled fruits to sell anonymously on consignment, which one she took out was a mutated Portis orange, and it was so mysterious, but anyway, there was money to be made, and the consignment owner didn't say much.

Xiao Ai and Lori named their consignment shop "Dark Shop", although the second is a little bit, but it is precisely because of the second middle school that the stars are full of "dark restaurants", "dark shadow halls" and "dark cuisine" or something, "Dark Shop" will not attract attention at all, in fact, they still hope to open a store one day, and the name will be called "Dark Shop" first.
