In the week that followed, Nianyang set aside all distractions, spending every free moment frantically tending to the Medicine Field, planting herbs, and watering them in her space.
The fifteen types of herbs she initially planted to treat asthma grew, yielding fifteen Life Values. She then used these fifteen Life Values to purchase over thirty different herb seeds, following the same process to plant them, harvesting more Life Values, and buying more herb seeds to plant.
In just seven days, Nianyang had leveraged those initial herb seeds into a cycle reminiscent of the chicken-and-egg scenario, eventually cultivating over five hundred types of herbs, filling the entire Medicine Field, and astonishingly ending up with five hundred Life Values left over.
Five hundred Life Values could purchase thousands of herb seeds, but Nianyang saw that her planted herbs were already abundant and inexhaustible, so there was no need to waste Life Values on more purchases.
