NovelEnglish302 Going to Buy Seeds
Wan Dapeng was stunned at first, then he frowned. “No, we can’t take your things anymore. Sister, you and Brother are both kind and good people, but we can’t keep taking advantage of you…”
“Big Brother Wan, don’t be in a hurry to reject me.” Du Yue interrupted Wan Dapeng. “He Xing and I are just two ordinary people, so we naturally can’t give you so many seeds for free. The two of us don’t know how to farm, so it’s a waste to leave these seeds in our hands. Take them and exchange them for improved seeds. You guys plant them. When it’s ripe, 30% of the food will be given to the base, and we’ll take 10% of the remaining 70%. You guys can keep the 60%. Is that okay?”
It would be a lie to say that he was not tempted, but Wan Dapeng was still a little hesitant. “60% is too much…”

Wan Dapeng scratched his head. “You seem to have a point, but why do I keep feeling that something is wrong…”
Du Yue had a serious face. “There’s nothing wrong, Brother Wan. You just think too much.”
Wan Dapeng scratched his head. “I can’t promise you this matter yet. I have to go back and ask Sister Yu first and see what she thinks. You should also take a rest and eat quickly. Just call me on the walkie-talkie if there’s anything!”
After saying goodbye, Wan Dapeng left. Looking at Wan Dapeng’s back, Du Yue was not in a hurry at all. From her understanding of Wan Dapeng and Yu Xinya, they would definitely agree with her proposal. However… Not long after Wan Dapeng left, Yu Xinya came over in a hurry. “Little Sister, Dapeng told me everything after he went back. I really have to thank you for your help in the matter of the seeds. However, after some discussion, we decided that keeping 60% is too much. We should at least give you 20%. If you don’t agree, we’ll think of a way ourselves…”
Du Yue smiled. “Alright, we’ll do as you say.”
“Sister, you’re…” Du Yue agreed so quickly that Yu Xinya was a little surprised. However, she quickly reacted. “Sister, so you were already expecting my response!”
Du Yue only smiled but did not say anything. She did it on purpose. She knew that if she asked for 20%, Yu Xinya would give her 30%. Therefore, she said that she only wanted 10% so that Yu Xinya would give her another 10%. It was the best of both worlds.
Yu Xinya was touched and helpless. She looked at Du Yue, who was smiling. “You’re too generous, child. I’ll have to pay more attention to you in the future so that others won’t take advantage of you.”
Du Yue was speechless. Yu Xinya must have misunderstood her.

Yu Xinya agreed with Du Yue’s suggestion. “Why don’t you come back with me for dinner?”
Du Yue rejected her with a smile. “No, we’ll just have a casual bite.”
Yu Xinya did not insist. She nodded and left. Looking at Yu Xinya’s back, Du Yue finally let out a sigh of relief. Rubbing her empty stomach, Du Yue smiled at He Xing and said, “We’ve finally settled the issue of the seeds. Let’s eat!”
She did not feel anything when she was busy, but now that she was free, she felt that her stomach was starving.
He Xing looked at Du Yue lovingly. “Sure, I’m hungry too.”
Du Yue and He Xing only had a simple bowl of cold noodles and a plate of saucy beef because they had an appointment with Wan Dapeng and Yu Xinya to buy seeds in the afternoon.
After eating, they brushed their teeth and washed their faces and hands to get rid of the smell of food. The two of them had just finished cleaning up when Wan Dapeng’s voice came from the walkie-talkie, “Brother, Sister, have you guys finished eating?”
He Xing picked up the walkie-talkie and said, “We’re done. Come and find us. We can go now.”
