Chapter 76 - 76: Do You Want To Cook For Me So Much?
[Current level: Three.]
Almost the moment the voice sounded, Xiaoxiao disappeared in a flash. She couldn’t wait to enter the space. She realized that the space had undergone an earth-shattering change after she leveled up—
In the past, the space was beautiful, but it had a lifeless feeling. However, it was different now. She could even close her eyes and feel the wind. When she looked up, she saw the clouds moving. Even the flowers and plants on the ground that seemed to be just background decorations, looked alive.
The space happily showed off to her: [From now on, I’m not just a static space!]
Xiaoxiao expressed that she was willing to hear the details. The space marked two areas with a cursor and told her: [The left area is still the warehouse area. Time there is still static, just like before.]
Xiaoxiao understood that in the past, other than her, everything would remain motionless when they entered, including food that belonged to “dead things” and bees that belonged to “living things”.
The space pointed to another area that looked like a field: [That’s the plantation area. It has double the speed. The higher my level, the higher the speed!]
Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up, and her Chinese people’s desire to plant crops was stirring. [In other words, I’ll be playing with farms in such a place in the future?]
The space chuckled: [If your level is high enough, that’s right! ]
Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes happily and shifted her attention to the Exchange Mall. The bright “rice seeds” and the small row of instructions below made Xiaoxiao’s eyes almost light up—
“New rice seed: Depending on the soil situation, the yield of an acre is 300 to 650 kilograms.”
In other words, even a low-yielding field could reach 300 kgs of acre production. Their family had bought middle quality land. Didn’t that mean that two acre fields could grow at least 600 kgs of food?
Her heart was pounding, but when she turned around and saw the balance of 140, she instantly calmed down. Perhaps because she was too tired during the day, she quickly fell asleep.
Only Rong Yan and the rest were still awake at this time. Yun Yi had long noticed that the county magistrate was investigating them, but they were confident that they had covered everything up flawlessly.
Brother Zhao Hu’s existence was real, and so was the token. However, they were not Zhao Hu’s family, but the Third Prince, Rong Yan, and his personal guards from Jingcheng City.
They met the Zhao Family, who were at their wits’ end, when they were being chased. At that time, Zhao Hu’s elder brother was already terminally ill. He only lasted for two more days with their help. Before he died, he handed all his assets and tokens to Rong Yan and the others, begging them to give them to his family who had been separated for many years and say, “I’m unfilial.”
Zhao Hu’s elder brother did not have children, but he hoped that the wealth he had earned from running around for half his life would at least make his family’s life less difficult.
Rong Yan carefully checked the information about County Magistrate Shen that the guards had gathered over the past few days under the light. From the paper alone, he was a good official who was dedicated to the people, but who knew what was going on inside? Many corrupt officials had a benevolent face.
“Check again.”
Yun Yi accepted the order and was about to leave when he heard his master coughing lightly and instructed, “Make a trip to the county tomorrow.”
Yun Yi went to make preparations, but he was very puzzled. Didn’t they agree to hold back for the time being and wait for the enemies in the dark to give themselves away?
The next day, when he saw the Ning Family members who had agreed to set off together, Yun Yi felt that he seemed to have vaguely understood something.
Today, the Ning Family was going to deliver goods to the restaurant, so they pushed the cart themselves. Miss Ning arranged the two rows of jars and lay down with her legs crossed. She was even humming a song.
As she hummed, she called out to her friends. “You haven’t gone out for many days, right? What a coincidence. We met again.”
Rong Yan stood silently in the direction of the wind. “There are a lot of things to buy.” He looked at the bright smile on her face and thought to himself, Are you that happy to be with me?
Then… it was not impossible for him to visit the county often.
Xiaoxiao’s mind was filled with the rice seeds in the space. A rice seed required 500 points, and 500 points could plant an acre of land. In other words, their family needed 1,000 points to exchange for all the rice seeds. However, after upgrading the space, her current balance was only 140 points, which was far from enough.
If she prepared the points she needed earlier, she might be able to replace some rice seeds that grew slowly.
If she wanted to obtain more points, she needed to make more delicacies. However, it was not easy to spend the money she had hidden. She would be restrained when cooking. This was a troublesome matter.
It was all the old residence’s fault for dragging her down. At the thought of this, she couldn’t help but pout.
The queue for entering the city was still so long. Xiaoxiao stretched a few times before it was her turn. After entering the city, she saw her neighbor, Young Master All Yan, bringing his guards to buy buns. She could not help but fall into deep self-doubt. Was it because she did not make it delicious enough? Otherwise, why would her neighbor be thinking about the buns outside?
Xiaoxiao’s brain, which had just woken up, was not that agile. She said reflexively, “You can ask me to make you whatever you want to eat.” After saying that, she felt that it was inappropriate and was about to change her words when she saw Rong Yan retract his hand obediently.
She was not sure if he had heard her or if he had just passed by the bun stall and did not intend to buy it.
Just as she was feeling awkward and did not know what to say, the Fragrance Restaurant was already in front of her. Xiaoxiao lowered her head and walked in with her brothers. As long as she walked fast enough, embarrassment would not be able to catch up to her!
What she didn’t know was that Rong Yan, who was behind her, couldn’t help but smile when he saw her embarrassed back.. He thought to himself, So she can be shy too?Moreover… Does she want to cook for me so much?
