Ch59.1 - A Kitten That Transmigrated Into A Mink (Part One)

Editor: Alysia

Half of the lettuce field had been destroyed. Since the lettuce grew fast, it could be used for consumption. As for the lettuce seeds, they would have to wait for the lettuce to bolt before they could gather it. In this way, the collection of the seeds should be completed after the entire growth period of the lettuce plant, that was, four months later. Now, there were no extra lettuce seeds, and the sweet potatoes and the sorghums were not ripe at all. 

Cui QiChao was a little depressed. He could only hurry in studying the native plants of the unmanned planet. The existing crop species they could plant were too few.

Cui Ting flattered, “Younger Brother Chao, although a travel restriction is set on your identity, there wasn’t one set on ours. You see, since you stuck a bomb on our collars, you will not have to be afraid of us acting recklessly. Why don’t I fly a plane to a commercial planet on behalf of you and buy some things that you need? I can also pay for those things as well.”

Cui QiChao glanced at her.

She immediately covered her neck with her hands, “Don’t electrocute me. I’m telling you this sincerely.” 

Unfortunately, it was obvious Cui QiChao didn’t believe a lick of her words, judging from his expression.

Cui QiChao would rather trade with Lisa and the others than with Cui Ting and the others. Besides, he wouldn’t trade even with Cui Hu, let alone Cui Ting and the others.

Cui Ting could only retreat after a defeat. She thought from the bottom of her heart, shit, he’s so stubborn.

Even with the collar, she held horrible intentions towards Cui QiChao. She also doubted Cui QiChao’s willpower. It was impossible for Cui QiChao to do all this, Brother Hu should be exaggerating. How could a normal omega be indifferent to alpha pheromones? The problem should have to do with Brother Hu’s pheromones, right?

She was different from Cui Hu. Her pheromones smelled like red wine. It smelled even more intoxicating during her rut. Hence, she was very popular with the omegas.

Cui Ting didn’t know what other people were thinking. Anyway, she felt slightly thrilled for the upcoming rut, since they didn’t have inhibitors.

But after taking Cui QiChao’s lettuce back to their base, Lisa’s way of thinking changed……

Including those companions who originally didn’t have much opinion on the lettuce, everyone developed a slight fondness of it because of the freshness and delicacy of it.

Lisa didn’t say it was planted by Cui QiChao in the beginning. Everyone also guessed where Cui QiChao obtained the lettuce from and didn’t know which planting unit developed this new variety of lettuce. It was too delicious.

The first time Lisa took the lettuce back, they made a salad with it. They didn’t even have salad dressing so the Chinese in their base made a Chinese salad. The lettuce leaves didn’t need to be cut too carefully. They added condiments such as soy sauce, sesame oil and salt. Then, they mixed well before serving. 

The taste was delicious, crisp, tender, and sweet. To sum up, the lettuce tasted amazing. In addition, it was also rare for them to have fresh vegetables in their base. Therefore, the salad was swept clean by everyone. Next, based on individual preferences, some people extracted juice with it, some boiled it, and some rolled it with meat. Because the lettuce used was good, the taste of the food made with it tasted different. The juice was sufficiently fresh and sweet, and the taste was good with a little honey added to it. When the meat was rolled with lettuce, it got rid of the greasiness the meat has. The boiled lettuce also tasted quite unique.

The consumption rate was several times faster than the previous batch of fresh vegetables they traded. Within a few days, a hundred kilograms of lettuce were eaten up but everyone still wanted to eat more of it. They asked Lisa many times how many lettuces the friend she had exchanged the lettuce from had, where it came from, whether she could exchange it again, etc.

It was this time that Lisa told them that she heard that the lettuce was planted by her friend.

Was there someone who was growing large tracts of lettuce on the unmanned planet? Although they were not experts in agronomy, no one could forget that the unmanned planet was named “unmanned” because it was unsuitable for it to be used for any purpose. Naturally, it was also not a suitable place for planting crops. 

Not to mention, why would someone still want to grow vegetables in such a place? It wouldn’t be easy for her friend to grow such delicious lettuce here alone. Could it be that her friend was actually an agronomy expert coming here to conduct experiments?

In any case, with all that happened, Lisa showed a much more intimate attitude to Cui QiChao when she saw him again. She greatly praised the lettuce she had gotten during their last exchange. She had clearly reminded herself inwardly that if she could have a second transaction with him, the time interval between the current transaction and the next transaction should be longer. This was to prevent any information leakage on Lisa’s side.

Cui QiChao came into an agreement with Lisa to trade 150 kilograms of lettuce this time. Unfortunately, there was still some time before Lisa’s supplies came. Hence, they didn’t manage to exchange anything like sorghum with Cui QiChao. Cui QiChao also noticed that Lisa’s attitude had changed, so he tried to ask if they could find seeds of specific plants for him.

Cui QiChao had once mentioned that he hoped to trade seeds again with Lisa if she had some in the future. This time, when he mentioned it again, Lisa’s mood was completely different. Last time, she casually said that she would try to find seeds that he wanted, but this time, she has made up her mind. Mr. Tristan wanted seeds to grow vegetables, and it seemed that he had a lot excess lettuce and he did not have a way to export them. This was the reason why he was exchanging the lettuce with them. If she gave him some seeds, he would grow a lot of other fresh vegetables, which might taste as good as the lettuce……this way, wouldn’t they also benefit from this? 

“Don’t worry, I’ll check my connections if they have any when I get back.” Lisa agreed immediately. “Tell me what kind of seeds you need, and I’ll let someone try to get them.”

After all, they were an illegal organization. There were risks when transporting goods and they couldn’t buy and sell things wantonly. Every transaction’s information would be recorded. If they were not careful, the authorities could follow the clues to get to the bottom of them. Therefore, Lisa could only “try to get some seeds” within her ability.

At the same time, Lisa also ruled out the identity Cui QiChao had which everyone in her base had guessed previously. If he truly was an agronomy expert, he wouldn’t even have to scavenge waste. It would also be impossible for Cui QiChao to not be able to get the seeds.

Cui QiChao thought that if Lisa’s connections were really reliable, it was estimated that he would get the seeds in the next few months. Following that, the seeds would be sown next year. In any case, this was a way he could obtain seeds. 

Cui QiChao was not picky, but he also hoped to obtain the seeds he needed. For example, considering the environment of the unmanned planet, he had to obviously give priority to crops that required less light and shade-tolerant crops, such as leek, asparagus, sprouts, radish and so on.

On the day of the transaction, Cui QiChao asked Cui Hu to stay at the space station and left some instructions Cui Hu should follow when he was gone. He brought Cui Ting and Cui XiaoJiang out to assist him. His purpose was to separate these people. Initially, he wanted to bring them all out but he was afraid Lisa would think too much. With a mere glance, Cui QiChao could tell that Cui Ting and the gang were dishonest. If this was the middle ages, they would probably be similar to slaves who always wanted to flee from the fief.

But in the eyes of Lisa and Albert, they thought that Cui QiChao had swapped his alpha yet again…

At first, they thought Cui QiChao was just a single omega. Later, they thought he had an alpha. Now, he has two new alphas. They were all the same as Cui QiChao in a way that they didn’t spray a pheromone masking agent and carelessly revealed their pheromones. 

Lisa and Albert could not help but frown when they smelled the strong scent of white wine and red wine in the air. The way they wantonly emitted their pheromones was not polite at all.

If you take a closer look at the way they stood, you would find that Cui Ting and Cui XiaoJiang were standing one step behind Cui QiChao. It was not obvious when Cui QiChao brought Cui Hu alone to meet Lisa and Albert. But this time, it was quite obvious to Lisa and Albert that Cui Ting and Cui XiaoJiang’s statuses were not as high as Cui QiChao’s.

In their eyes, Cui QiChao’s identity became more contradictory. He seemed to be wandering on an unmanned planet and needed to trade with them. He was also short of materials, but he also had some advanced technology. Additionally, he had several alphas working under him. Based on all these things they observed, they felt that his identity was too mysterious.

“Mr. Cui, didn’t your alpha come this time?” Lisa asked to sound him out. 

Cui QiChao didn’t bother to explain, “Didn’t come.”

Cui XiaoJiang heard this and said with a smile, “It’s also fine if we came here with him. We are also…”

He wanted to say that “We are also his alpha”. But when the word reached his mouth, he didn’t dare to joke about it for fear of being electrocuted by Cui QiChao. Now, they privately called Cui QiChao ‘Cuikachu’.

Changing the topic, Cui XiaoJiang stated, “We are lacking in pheromone masking agents. Sorry about that.” 

These people were truly strange. However, there were many strange people in such places. Wouldn’t Cui QiChao and the others consider themselves weird? But in any case, Lisa and Albert found no point to continue delving into Cui QiChao and the others’ lives. Lisa smiled and said, “It’s alright.”

“After some time, I will also have a batch of sweet potato leaves.” Cui QiChao’s words completely diverted Lisa’s attention. Sweet potato leaves could also be eaten as vegetables. It was delicious. Who cares about them being alphas or omegas? Mr. Tristan’s vegetables were more attractive to them.

Lisa couldn’t help asking, “What about sweet potatoes?”

If there were sweet potato leaves, there must be sweet potatoes. 

“We need to keep the sweet potatoes to sow them, so we can’t trade them for the time being.” Cui QiChao said. He didn’t have many sweet potatoes. The sweet potatoes he had grown needed to be used to grow more sweet potatoes. There were a lot of sweet potato leaves, so they could be cut and sold. The sweet potato leaves were also a reward to Lisa and the others because they were willing to help him find seeds.

Lisa was slightly disappointed, but she revealed a smile. This time, she and Cui QiChao had an agreement. After some time, if they agreed to meet again, they would carve a sign by the lake, and the other party could see it when they came. As for the exchange of communication channels, forget it. They decided to use the most primitive method. Everyone would visit the lake every once in a while to get some fresh aquatic products to eat anyway.
