At this moment, Su Zhe no longer had the heart to loiter here. He hurried home to verify whether the idea in his mind was feasible. After getting home, he went straight to the backyard.

The flower bed in the backyard had been neglected for a long time and was now overgrown with weeds. Su Zhe found a small, almost withered grass, reached out, and held it, trying to transfer the divine power in his body to the grass.

It was evident that the originally withered and yellow grass, under the help of divine power, began to regain its green vitality. Seeing the grass that had regained its strong life force, Su Zhe knew that his guess was correct.

Because of the pet exchange mall, Su Zhe had always thought that divine power was only effective on animals and had never considered that it could also help plants. Today, after seeing someone selling medicinal herbs, he decided to try using divine power to see if it had any effect on plants.

Now, through the experiment with the grass, he proved that his divine power had many undiscovered uses. He couldn't always focus on animals; many plants were also worth a fortune, and they presented significant business opportunities for him.

After confirming that divine power was effective on plants, Su Zhe went out again. He hailed a car, got in, and said to the driver, "Sir, do you know where I can buy seeds? I need a variety of them."

"Go to the seed station in Yan Yun City. They have a wide variety of seeds and are reliable, but the seed station is quite far away."

"Alright, let's go to the seed station."

The seed station in Yan Yun City was indeed far from Su Zhe's home. The road was not congested, and the driver drove relatively fast, but it still took more than 40 minutes to reach the seed station. Su Zhe paid and got out of the car, noticing that the place was quite remote and worrying about not finding a ride back.

So he said to the driver, "Sir, I'll go in and buy some seeds. I'll be quick. Can you wait for me here? I'll take your car back, and you can keep the meter running."

The driver was naturally happy. This place was sparsely populated, and he would mostly return empty-handed. Moreover, he could continue to use the meter, so he let Su Zhe go with peace of mind, telling him to take his time.

There were not many people at the seed station. Apart from three staff members at the front desk, there were two people consulting about seeds. Su Zhe went to the front desk, and the staff member without a customer hurried over to greet him, "May I ask what you need, sir?"

"I want to buy some seeds, mainly for research, and I need ones with high value."

"There are many high-value seeds, like ginseng. However, wild ginseng is more valuable, especially the older ones," the staff member said politely. Many people thought that buying some high-value seeds and growing them at home would make them a lot of money, but they didn't realize how difficult it was to grow plants.

"There are also some ornamental plants that sell for high prices, but this mainly depends on their appearance," the staff member added.

Su Zhe didn't know which seeds to choose. He thought for a moment and decided to buy a bit of each type of seed the staff member recommended. He also bought several different sizes of flower pots and tools. Then he took the same car back.

Baby was watching an anime in the living room, so engrossed that she didn't even notice Su Zhe coming in. Su Zhe put the things in the backyard.

An Xin happened to come out of the kitchen and saw him, saying, "Are you done? Lunch is ready. Wash your hands and come eat."

Baby only then realized that Su Zhe had returned. She jumped off the sofa and ran to Su Zhe, asking him to pick her up. After responding to An Xin, Su Zhe carried Baby to the bathroom, and they both washed their hands.

During the meal, An Xin said to Su Zhe, "If you have nothing to do later, I want to go out."

"Since there's nothing to do at home, go ahead. If you have any problems, you can tell me; maybe I can help."

"Thank you, but I don't have any problems. I just want to go for a walk."

Baby, who was eating, suddenly interjected, "Brother is very capable. He can do anything. He even saved Baby's big turtle."

An Xin raised an eyebrow at Baby's words, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't. Seeing that An Xin didn't want to talk, Su Zhe didn't press her.

After the meal, Su Zhe went to the backyard, while Baby continued watching her anime, and An Xin stayed to clean up the dishes. Su Zhe took a bowl and filled it with water. He tore open the package of ginseng seeds he had bought and poured some into the bowl, about a hundred seeds. He also infused the water with about 10 points of divine power.

Then he found some tools and started weeding and tilling the soil in the backyard. Since he had never done such work before, he didn't know the correct posture and had to rely on his current strong physique to persist.

While weeding, An Xin came to say hello to Su Zhe and then left. Baby also came to see, but since Su Zhe didn't let her participate, she quickly lost interest and went back to watching her anime.

Finally, when Su Zhe had cleared all the weeds in the backyard, he felt his back was about to break, even with his current physique, he was quite exhausted.

He picked up the bowl he had placed aside. The ginseng seeds that had been soaking in the water had all sprouted, with a 100% germination rate. In fact, he had never heard of anyone soaking ginseng seeds in water and having them sprout.

Su Zhe had stumbled upon this by chance, as he didn't know how to cultivate ginseng seeds. Normally, ginseng seeds need 20 to 21 months to germinate after planting, and even with accelerated germination, it takes 8 to 9 months.

But Su Zhe, by soaking the ginseng seeds in water and infusing it with 10 points of divine power, not only made the seeds sprout in the water but also made them sprout in a short time.

Considering that he would plant other plants in the future, he buried all the ginseng seeds in a corner. Su Zhe knew that ginseng grows in cooler, shaded areas, so he planted the seeds where the sun couldn't often reach.

After burying all the ginseng seeds in the soil, he evenly sprinkled the water used to soak the seeds over them. After finishing, the exhausted Su Zhe went to the living room and collapsed on the sofa.

Baby was very considerate and cared about Su Zhe. Seeing how tired he was, she knew to help Su Zhe with a massage, using her small hands to pat and rub his back.

Su Zhe felt very comfortable, and soon, he fell asleep on the sofa under Baby's massage.
