"Oh? Satou, are your clothes new? I haven't seen them before; the person who picked them has good taste."
Yuki Yoshino noticed the clothes Satou was wearing; she hadn't seen him wear them before.
Satou rolled his eyes. The person who picked the clothes indeed had good taste, but their taste in underwear was exceptionally poor.
Although he felt that the Tsundere was deliberately choosing such ugly underwear to tease him.
At this moment, Erina Nakiri and Hisako Arato walked over.
Hisako Arato glanced at Satou's lower body, covering her mouth and secretly smiling, clearly knowing that Satou had already put on the underwear Miss Erina had picked for him yesterday.
"It must be Miss Erina who bought them, right?"
Ryoko Sakaki asked with a mischievous smile.
Erina Nakiri's face immediately flushed.
"That's great, Satou, you have a girlfriend to buy you clothes."
Yukihira Soma said enviously from the side.
"Speaking of which, Yukihira-kun, you could also buy some new clothes. I've seen you wear that one for almost a year."
Yuki Yoshino glanced at the jacket he wore year-round and complained.
"Haha, well, my dad hasn't sent over any living expenses lately."
Yukihira Soma scratched the back of his head, laughing somewhat awkwardly.
"Ah! What excellent soil! It will surely grow wonderful vegetables."
Because Isshiki Satoshi also had a vegetable patch at Polar Star Dormitory, Satou specifically invited him to help this time.
At this moment, he was only wearing a loincloth, revealing his fair and well-built physique, with beads of sweat glistening under the sun.
He carried a hoe and let out a sigh of admiration.
"H-how vulgar, Miss Erina, don't look."
Hisako Arato blushed, spat, and then stood in front of Miss Erina, trying to prevent Miss Erina from seeing this filthy and vulgar scene.
"Mhm."
Erina Nakiri nodded, then secretly glanced, her cheeks slightly flushed.
When should I buy something like that for Satou to wear and tease him?
She stuck out her tongue, a mischievous smile appearing on her lips.
Satou looked at her and asked, "Erina, why are you secretly smiling?"
"Oh, nothing."
Erina Nakiri felt a little guilty and playfully stuck out her tongue at him.
Satou was somewhat speechless; by now, he realized that Erina also really liked to tease people, just like her cousin Alice.
However, since they were sisters, it was normal for their personalities to be somewhat similar. It was just that due to her childhood experiences, Erina's original personality had been suppressed.
It was only after meeting him that she gradually regained her original cheerful personality.
At this moment, with the help of Isshiki Satoshi, Yukihira Soma, and others, the grass on the ground had been removed, revealing the black, fertile soil beneath.
Isshiki Satoshi squatted down, pinched a clump of soil, and said with a smile, "Satou, the soil here is very fertile; it will definitely grow excellent vegetables."
"Mhm."
Satou nodded with a smile. This way, they wouldn't have to eat the vegetables sent from Polar Star Dormitory anymore; they could pick fresh and delicious vegetables from their own backyard.
Then, he took out two mineral earthworms. One of them he had purchased from the system yesterday. Although it was just a small worm, it wasn't cheap, costing five million Japanese yen.
Of course, its effect was also extremely powerful; land where it resided would become exceptionally fertile. Not only that, but it could also shorten the maturation period of vegetables.
"By the way, System, if I release them, will they run off to other places?"
Satou suddenly thought of a question.
"No, the mineral earthworms will always remain active within a one-acre radius near where the host releases them and will never exceed that boundary."
The system explained.
"That's great."
Satou breathed a sigh of relief. He had been worried that they might run away after he released them.
Two mineral earthworms could increase the fertility of two acres of land.
The vegetables grown on two acres of land would be more than enough to feed Satou's family.
"Oh? Satou, what are these things?"
As soon as he saw the two earthworms, Isshiki Satoshi's eyes couldn't move away.
Everyone else also gazed at the two earthworms with curiosity.
"Well, these are a special type of earthworm that can purify water quality and also increase the fertility of the soil, making it more suitable for cultivation. They can even shorten the maturation cycle of vegetables."
Satou explained.
Upon hearing Satou's words, Isshiki Satoshi's eyes immediately brightened even more, filled with envy.
"How amazing."
Yukihira Soma and the others also exclaimed in admiration, their eyes blazing.
In fact, not only Isshiki Satoshi, but Tadokoro Megumi also planted a lot of vegetables in the garden. This kind of earthworm was fatally attractive to farmers like them.
"I say, Satou, could you sell me one of these earthworms?"
Isshiki Satoshi said with a smile, "Although I know this might be presumptuous, any price is fine."
"Hmm."
Satou pondered for a moment, then said, "In that case, I'll give one to you all."
Although the five-million-yen price made him feel a bit pained, Isshiki Satoshi often gave him and Erina vegetables he grew himself, Yuki Yoshino often gave him chickens she raised, Ryoko Sakaki had also given him natto, and others had given them ingredients they produced themselves.
Consider it a return gift to them.
"Eh? Is that really okay?"
At this, Isshiki Satoshi became embarrassed, because he knew that such an earthworm must be very precious.
"No need to say that; I often receive gifts from everyone too."
Satou said with a smile, then handed him one of the earthworms he was holding. He could just buy another one to replace it later.
"One earthworm can fertilize one acre of land. You just need to put it on the soil, and it won't run out of the one-acre range."
"Thank you so much, Satou."
Isshiki Satoshi took it with great excitement, then said, "This earthworm was given to Polar Star Dormitory by Satou, so we will designate one acre of land specifically for everyone to plant on."
"It seems I'll have to learn how to grow vegetables too."
Ryoko Sakaki said with a smile.
"Hmm, from now on, that acre of land will be called Satou Garden!"
Yoshino Yuuki suggested.
Satou: "…Can you make it sound worse?"
However, everyone else agreed that the name was very good.
