200,000 Can't Buy It! The Magical Ecological Harmony +3

Chapter 28: Cannot Be Bought for 200,000! Magical Ecological Harmony +3

Ma Ke came out and was also full of shock. The 4-meter-tall, lush, and incredibly vibrant seven-color symbiotic ornamental bougainvillea immediately caught his eye.

"This... this is considered an old plant, right?" Ma Ke hurried forward to observe.

Working in this industry, he knew the value of this bougainvillea very well. A seven-color symbiotic bougainvillea cultivated to such perfection was definitely a collectible old plant.

To put it mildly, tourist areas in China with large Bougainvillea Seas would be willing to pay over 200,000 to acquire this one.

This mountain resort's Bougainvillea Sea was not just going to be popular; it was going to be a huge hit.

Compared to these bougainvilleas, the ones sent by their cultivation base were merely supporting green leaves.

As Qin Lin got out of the car, Chen Dabe also came over to introduce him, "Boss, this is Mr. Ma Ke, who is here to deliver bougainvilleas from the cultivation base."

"Hello!" Qin Lin shook hands with Ma Ke.

After shaking hands, Ma Ke couldn't help but ask curiously, "Boss Qin, this old bougainvillea plant must have cost a lot of money, right? Even 200,000 would be hard to buy a bougainvillea of this grade."

"A friend gave me a friendly price," Qin Lin said casually.

However, he hadn't expected that this Quality 3 seven-color symbiotic bougainvillea was already considered an old plant.

Old plants were collectible mature bougainvilleas, given exorbitant prices by the wealthy.

He had seen news before about an old plant of a bi-colored giant umbrella bougainvillea in Guangxi, whose owner was asking for 300,000.

Moreover, the value of this Quality 3 bougainvillea should far exceed the price Ma Ke mentioned, especially since the other party didn't know that his seven-color symbiotic ornamental bougainvillea bloomed year-round and had many attribute bonuses.

After seeing these bougainvilleas, Ma Ke felt too embarrassed to offer to stay and provide planting guidance; he wouldn't dare to show off his skills in front of a master.

Ma Ke had brought 3,000 bougainvilleas this trip. Since Qin Lin had ordered several varieties of bougainvilleas with different colors, and due to his own transplanting speed, it was impossible to handle them all at the same time.

Qin Lin also called Master Lin to bring people over. With the sudden appearance of the Quality 3 seven-color symbiotic ornamental bougainvillea, the central area needed some changes, so naturally, this Quality 3 one would be transplanted there.

Furthermore, after learning the price of this old plant, Chen Dabe was also startled and suggested to Qin Lin, "Boss, shouldn't you hire more security guards?"

With such valuable bougainvilleas planted, he was afraid of them being targeted. Although Master Lin and he had discussed taking turns on night watch, they wouldn't be able to handle any real threats.

"Mhm, I'll handle this," Qin Lin nodded.

He had planned to hire more security guards anyway. The value of the Bougainvillea Sea was immense; how could Chen Dabe, a single security guard, be enough?

Master Lin and his team were also surprised when they saw this Quality 3 bougainvillea. It took them a lot of effort to move it to the planting area of the Bougainvillea Sea.

Transplanting this one alone took another half a day.

Gao Yaoyao and two female employees were also drawn to this bougainvillea. They thought the previous bougainvilleas were the most beautiful, but they didn't expect to see an even more beautiful one.

The next day.

As soon as Qin Lin arrived at the mountain resort, Gao Yaoyao ran up to him, "Boss, hurry and come see yesterday's bougainvillea."

"What's wrong with the bougainvillea?" Qin Lin asked, a little confused.

Following Gao Yaoyao to the Quality 3 seven-color symbiotic ornamental bougainvillea, he understood why.

Many butterflies were dancing on the bougainvillea, and some birds were chirping cheerfully. Even more surprising, there were two squirrels peeking out from the branches.

If the saying "fragrance attracts butterflies" meant it wasn't strange for the Bougainvillea Sea to attract butterflies, then the presence of birds and squirrels must be due to a special reason.

Gao Yaoyao excitedly explained, "Boss, isn't it amazing? I came up at noon yesterday to take a picture for my social media and saw them. They weren't afraid even when I got close."

As she spoke, she walked closer and stood under the bougainvillea. The squirrels on the tree didn't run away. Two squirrels even climbed onto a branch above Gao Yaoyao's head, seemingly looking down at her curiously.

Under normal circumstances, birds and squirrels would have been startled and fled when a person approached.

Qin Lin roughly understood what was happening.

This Quality 3 bougainvillea had the attribute "Ecological Harmony +3."

This scene was definitely related to "Ecological Harmony +3."

Because of this attribute, nearby butterflies, birds, and these squirrels were attracted.

"Gao Yaoyao, perhaps we should make a sign prohibiting harm to animals," Qin Lin said, seeing this. This could also be a huge selling point.

Afterward, the entire mountain resort was buzzing with construction.

The mountain resort also temporarily suspended business.

Every day, Qin Lin would move ordinary ornamental bougainvilleas from the game. Furthermore, the Quality 3 seven-color symbiotic ornamental bougainvillea appeared two more times within the next month. Three Quality 3 bougainvilleas were planted in the very center of the Bougainvillea Sea, with a dedicated flower bed and fence built around them. A sign reading 'Please Do Not Harm Small Animals' was hung above.

Around the three bougainvilleas, the butterflies danced even more, as did the birds. Their pleasant chirping sounded like a musical movement, and squirrels could occasionally be seen darting among the trees.

This beautiful scenery, combined with such a harmonious picture, was absolutely enchanting.

Time flew by, and it was suddenly October.

In the evening.

As usual, Qin Lin harvested the mature Okra from his 24 plots, replanted new seeds, and then sent this batch of mature Okra to RT-Mart. At the same time, he provided Manager Chen with 10 jin of Quality 2 Okra.

"Your account ending in... income received 19,653 yuan, balance 139,876.00!"

Over the past month, the Okra he had sent to RT-Mart had brought in over 650,000 yuan. After taxes, paying the remaining balance to the bougainvillea cultivation base, and covering the construction company's fees, less than 140,000 yuan remained.

Now that the Bougainvillea Sea has been completed and the villa is preparing to open.

Qin Lin drove his old three-wheeled truck to the warehouse, with two large buckets of water on it. He took a small bucket into the game and went straight to the pond.

In the past month, the pond's wild fish had already numbered over a thousand.

He immediately used the small bucket to scoop up these wild fish and bring them out of the game, loading them into the two large buckets. After moving dozens of them, the two large buckets were also full.

Among them were 6 large ones.

These were what he intended to put into the villa's fish pond.

He started the truck and headed towards the villa.

At the villa's entrance, one could see a special wooden art sign: Qinglin Villa!

Looking in from the entrance, not far away was a sea of vibrant bougainvillea, exuding elegance. This filled him with pride, as it was a flower sea he had created with his own hands.

However, while the flower sea was ready, a purely retro wooden building was still under construction not far from the reception hall.

This was naturally the sales center he planned to use for selling goods. Instead of letting RT-Mart profit from the crops grown in the game, he decided to sell them himself. As long as the villa had enough foot traffic, the produce could be consumed entirely on-site and sold at a higher price at the scenic spot. Later, he could also wholesale other items as a cover.

Qin Lin drove the three-wheeled truck directly to the front of the hall.

Gao Yaoyao was leading 4 girls in cleaning. These girls were all wearing specially tailored blue uniforms with "Qinglin Villa" printed on them.

Three of the girls were newly hired a few days ago. One of them would be responsible for tickets to the forest adventure and grass sliding activities, while another would be in charge of selling tickets for the bougainvillea sea.

The other two girls were responsible for the main hall.

As for Gao Yaoyao, her performance over the past month had been excellent, and she had been promoted to shift leader.

The young lady was now full of drive, managing things, and her salary had also increased by 1000.

"Boss, is there anything you need us to do?" Chen Dabe, seeing Qin Lin arrive, also came forward with two security guards in uniform, appearing very proactive.

With the bougainvillea sea completed, security personnel were indispensable. Besides the two behind Chen Dabe, there was one in the monitoring room watching the security feeds, and two on night patrol. They were all recruited through the city's online placement section for demobilized soldiers.

The villa had installed some surveillance cameras.

This was a necessary measure for many scenic spots, as there were simply too many people who slipped through the cracks of the current education system.

Naturally, Chen Dabe's proactive performance over the past month had earned him a promotion to security team captain, with a 1000 salary increase as well.

In addition, the villa had also hired an assistant cook to help Master Lin and a cashier, along with 3 dedicated gardeners to care for the bougainvillea sea.

Adding the original front desk receptionist and the cleaning aunt, the villa now had nearly 20 employees.
