I don't know if it was because of unlocking the "farmland" of the building. The next morning, Yunling recruited relevant professionals.

Level: 0

Attributes: strength 6, agility 5, stamina 6, intelligence 5, spirit 5.

Combat skills: No

life skills: Intermediate farming.

Note: Primary farming can take care of up to 2 farmlands. Intermediate farming can take care of up to 5 farmland, and

advanced farming can take care of up to 10 farmland.

Watering, weeding, and fertilization are required after sowing.

Yunling named the newly hired NPC "Farmer A", and then sent him to work in the fields.

Checking the farmland, I saw the property panel display-

【Name: Field】

Quality: Normal

use effect: Every 5-10 days, a batch of crops can be harvested.

Note 1: Seeds will drop when hunting mobs. Sowing different seeds, you can harvest different materials.

Note 2: The cultivator has the "primary farming" skill, and the harvest is about 80%-100% of the average.

The cultivator has the skill of "intermediate farming", and the harvest is about 90%-110% of the average.

Farmers have "advanced farming" skills, and the harvest is about 100%-120% of the average.

"If you want to hire farming talents, you have to choose carefully and choose high-level ones, so that you can better play the role of farmland." Yunling thought.

Seeing that it was still early, she stopped thinking about it. Call the npc to go out together and hurry up to transplant shrubs.

**

It is not difficult to transplant shrubs, but how to find shrubs in the endless forest.

For three days in a row, Yunling led the team to set off in the morning and returned to Lingyun Town in the evening. After walking many places, I was surprised to find only four bushes.

This is because some monsters will eat bushes. Sometimes I saw bushes a few days ago, but after a few days I rushed over and found that there were no bushes.

Fortunately, there are more than ten bushes in the dense bushes, and there are also seven or eight bushes, all of which are barely enough for transplantation.

Besides...

I can't meet it at the moment, can I continue to transplant if I encounter it in the future, don't rush for a while.

After working so hard for a few days, there were a few rows of bushes near the residential area, which looked neat and very attractive.

The residents learned everything, and followed by transplanting bushes.

Some people want to open up a vegetable field near the house to pick up some food for themselves.

Yunling simply assigned NPCs to build wooden fences next to each wooden house. All the land enclosed by the wooden fence belongs to the private domain of the residents, so they can toss with them.

This is amazing!

Players raise chickens for chickens, ducks for ducks, geese for geese, pigs and deer.

Some people don't like raising animals, so they transplant shrubs at the back of the house, planning to live by picking berries behind the house in the rainy season next year.

Some people are good at farming, and they are used to crops. After buying a house, immediately plant high-yield crops such as corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. Then count the days and wait for a good harvest, hoping to feed the whole family.

Some life players have long been tired of going out to explore, and when they saw it, they hired someone to help, chopped down bamboo and weeds and went home to plant them. When the bamboo grows into forests and weeds grow in the future, he will no longer have to worry about the raw materials.

The weather is still sultry, but there is hope in my heart, and work is much easier.

Lingyun Town was filled with a cheerful and lively atmosphere.

At the same time, the slum residents looked at the residents of the residential area with envy.

"I tried transplanting bushes next to the tent, but the system did not allow it."

"I caught two chickens and wanted to raise it, but the system did not allow it."

"Only when I became an official resident of Lingyun Town, bought a house, and had a wooden fence. Only then can we raise chickens and farm the land. Let's just don't think about it, it's no show!" As

soon as the voice fell, a couple carried their luggage and helped each other out.

Someone recognized them, and couldn't help asking curiously, "Pang Yu, why did you take down the tent? Where to sleep tonight?"

Pang Yu's eyebrows were filled with unbearable joy, "Buy a house! Move today! I invite you to another day. Eat a housewarming banquet!"

Everyone was shocked and stunned, and they turned into stone statues one after another.

One person coldly hummed, "What's wrong with living in a slum for the time being? Who is not in trouble? Wait, sooner or later, I will buy my own house too!" The

words were sonorous and forceful, showing the parties' determination.

Others were encouraged, and they were as excited as they were beaten up.

For a time, wooden houses in Lingyun Town were sold, and the income from the territory increased greatly.

**

Don't look at the 1,250 small ice cubes produced by the ice store every day, there are not many in total.

A glass of ice water requires two ice cubes to feel refreshing.

A glass of ice milk tea requires three or four ice cubes to cool enough.

As for iced watermelon juice and red bean shaved ice, more ice is used.

Occasionally some inventory is left, and a basin is placed in the house with ice cubes, which can greatly reduce the indoor temperature.

After going back and forth, the ice cubes produced in the ice store are used up every day, and there will never be any excess left.

Yunling waited and waited, waited and waited, and finally collected 10,000 copper coins.

She couldn't wait to upgrade the ice store to level 2, so the domain attribute was changed to -

[Unlockable Buildings: 10]

[Existing Buildings: 9]

[Existing Building Details:

Warehouse (Level 2): ​​Omitted.

Mission Hall (Level 2): ​​Omitted.

Woodworking Workshop (Level 1): Omitted.

Tailor Shop (Level 2): ​​Omitted.

Residential (level 1): omitted.

Protective cover (level 2): ​​omitted.

Restaurant (Level 2): ​​Omitted.

Ice storage (level 2): ​​With an area of ​​500 square meters, it can produce 100 cubic decimeters of ice per day, which can refrigerate food and extend the shelf life. (Note: Lords can set up an access list to allow specific groups of people to use it.)

Farmland (Level 1): Omitted. ]

This way, the ice freezer Nissan 12,500, enough for everyday use.

There is 1 left in the building, and the smithy can unlock it at any time if you want to unlock it.

But for one thing, there was no manpower to mine, smelt, or forge, and secondly, no suitable mine was found nearby, so Yunling decided to temporarily release the lock.

Right now, first hire manpower to take care of the farmland. Then collect ore and forge advanced equipment.

Seeing that the income from selling houses has skyrocketed recently and the wooden houses are almost full, Yunling plans to upgrade the houses to level 2 in the next step.

**

Fields and shrubs are harvested every 5-10 days.

Yunling has been thinking, is it possible that each maturity time is random?

In order to verify her guess, she observes every day and takes notes carefully.

Ten days later, the flax and kapok sown in the fields finally matured.

At the same time, the bushes bear berries, waiting for someone to pick them.

Yunling couldn't help but wonder about life, "Is my luck so bad? Harvest once every 5-10 days, no more, no less, just the 10th day?"

After a moment of stunned, she sent NPCs to pick them and put them in the warehouse, and then started. A new round of planting.

As in the spring, on the 61st day, the text in the upper right corner changed, "The 61st day, summer, peace day."

Yunling thought, "According to the current situation, spring, summer, autumn and winter, each season 30 days. The first 20 days Disaster mode, the next 10 days of safe mode, give players time to rest, so that they can prepare for the next challenge. "

I don't know what disaster will happen in the fall.

**

In the afternoon of the same day, all five wells were drilled.

Hu Dacheng: "Look at it, you are not satisfied."

Yunling checked them one by one, and was a little determined, "You did a good job."

There are five wells in the territory. Even if there is a drought in the future, you don't need to be too anxious.

Based on the game's urinary nature, she has every reason to believe that there may be droughts, floods, insects, and even the loss of land harvests, and the wild resources will be drastically reduced.

After the inspection, Yunling did not hesitate to pay the balance.

Hu Dacheng was overjoyed and thanked him in a hurry.

"I want to thank you." Yunling said gently, "The well was built, which helped me a lot."

"You are too polite." Hu Dacheng said embarrassedly, "If you need help, just say. I am. After more than ten years in the countryside, he would do a lot of things."

Yun Ling smiled and nodded, "Okay, I will find you later if I have a living." After the

negotiation was made, Hu Dacheng rushed home happily. He can't wait to tell his family that we are rich! You can buy a house!

**

Day 63.

In the early morning, Yunling cooked a pot of sweet corn for breakfast.

The corn was sweet and crisp, and it was very vigorous to chew.

Yunling was checking inventory, and the system suddenly sounded a prompt, "The player'You Qingwen' requested to enter the house, is it allowed?"

Why did she come?

Yunling clicks "Yes".

As soon as she entered the door, You Qingwen smiled brightly, "I'm sending you something delicious!"

Yunling was puzzled, "What's delicious?"

"Lotus root osmanthus cake!"

"Mung bean cake!"

"Egg roll!"

You Qing Every time Wen reported a noun, she took out the same food from her backpack.

Checking the items, Yunling found that the panel displayed-

【Name: Osmanthus fragrans cake (relieving summer pastry)】

Quality: Normal

use effect: Basic recovery speed: +1 point of health/minute, +1 point of mana/minute. (Lasting 1 hour)

[Name: Mung Bean Cake (Relieving Heat Pastry)]

Quality: Normal

use effect: Basic recovery speed: +1 point of health/minute, +1 point of mana/minute. (Lasts 1 hour)

[Name: Egg Roll]

Quality: Normal

Use Effect: Basic Recovery Speed: +2 HP/minute. (Lasts 1 hour)

These are all restoration items that can be added to the buff state after consumption.

Yunling refused to accept, "It's too expensive."

"Take it." You Qingwen was determined, "Didn't you eat your grilled fish before? I thought to myself, next time I have a chance, I must treat you to a good meal."

"As a result, I collected it as soon as summer came. Nearly half of the stored grain was rotten. In order to restock the grain, I was so busy and didn't find anything good."

"Now, it can be regarded as a chance to return a gift."

Seeing Yunling did not answer, You Qingwen worked hard to sell. "This lotus root flour sweet-scented osmanthus cake is delicious. It is not only sweet and soft, but also has a delicate fragrance. The more you eat it, the more you want to eat it."

"The mung bean cake has a delicate texture, melts in the mouth, and smells of mung beans."

"The egg rolls are especially crispy. Take a bite, full of egg and milk fragrance."

Seeing the other party still unmoved, You Qingwen thought viciously, and forced her to put aside her face and hugged Yunling's thigh to force her to accept it. It was not impossible!

"It's hard to get something delicious, you'd better keep it for yourself." Yunling persuaded.

You Qingwen said seriously, "I didn't get many good things before, but it will be different in the future. You can eat it without worry, I still have it."

Yun Ling was slightly startled.

You Qingwen put the cakes on the table, and then took out a two-finger-long, half-finger-wide wooden jar from her backpack. "This time, the main thing is to give you salt."

Salt?

When I opened the wooden jar, I saw that it was full of white crystals, which was salt.

Checking the items, I saw the panel display-

【Name: Salt】

Quality: Normal

use effect: It makes food salty and can be used to preserve food.

"Quality: Normal" means it is a game item.

"Quality: None" means it is a non-game item.

"Where is there so much salt?" Yun Ling was surprised.

There was a smile in You Qingwen's eyes, "I went out for an expedition not long ago and saved someone. I heard that it was a scientific researcher who used to specialize in the chemical industry."

"When I met him, I carried a lot of glass bottles and instruments with me. . Ask him to throw things away. He insisted on not saying that these are the guys who eat."

"It was easy to save people, but it didn't matter. Who knows that after a few days, he came to the door with a large pot of salt. Saying thank you very much for saving him. A small gift is no respect." Up

to now, You Qingwen still feels a palpitating heart, "A big pot of salt! Pure game items! If you say you give it away, you will give it away, without hesitation. Yes. Zheng Mingyue and I were frightened, and they said in private that this is not to save one person, but to retrieve a plug-in..."

"What happened later?" Yun Ling asked.

"The one who was rescued was not only a scientific researcher, but also made cakes." You Qingwen said in a very respectful tone, "Advanced baking, a lot of Chinese cakes can be made."

"We reached an agreement, the team provided materials, and he provided them. Craftsmanship, the finished product is divided into half."

"Sounds like technical talents, senior life players, the kind who are not good at fighting." Yunling said.

You Qingwen nodded again and again, "That's right."

"He said that it is not safe to stay in other territories and wanted to go to Lingyun Town, the most prosperous territory. As a result, he was cheated, robbed, and chased all the way. It's very miserable."

"If it wasn't for others to look down on his instruments, they would have robbed them." At the

end of the talk, she changed the conversation, "We don't need the pastries and salt. So I sent you a special one."

You Qingwen's smile is extremely clean, without a trace of impurities.

Yun Ling thought to herself, if it is this person, shouldn't it matter if you tell the truth?

"What's the matter?" Seeing Yunling said nothing, You Qingwen couldn't help asking.

"Some things have been kept from you, I feel sorry for some reason." Yunling sighed.

"Senior player, who doesn't have any secrets yet?" You Qingwen didn't care much, "I'm just telling you the truth. I always fool around with other people, and never show a word."

Asked where the salt came from. of? I bought it in a restaurant.

Why are there so many? Buy every day and accumulate less.

Even if others know that there is a problem and can't ask them, they just can't help it with her.

Well, in life, who has never told a lie? Sometimes a lie just opens your mouth, completely subconsciously.

"But you are honest with me, and I should also be honest with you, so that's fair." Yunling made up his mind and told the truth, "Actually, I am a public beta player and also the lord of Lingyun Town."

You Qingwen, "???? "A

thunderbolt hit her stupidly on the sunny day.

After a long time, she came back to her senses, "What is a public beta player? What is it that you are the lord of Lingyun Town?"

"On April 1, the post-apocalyptic natural disaster game was officially launched. In fact, before that, some people were selected to participate in the public beta. "Yun Ling whispered, explaining her experience and surviving rewards during the public beta.

"No wonder. On the first day of the game, Zheng Mingyue and I were confused. They didn't know where to go, but you knew exactly how to respond." You Qingwen suddenly realized.

It turned out that everything had a foreboding, but she never thought about it.

In other words, because I believe in Yunling, I don't want to go deep into making the other party embarrassed.

After knowing the truth, she instantly recalled more details, "No wonder your name is Yunling, and the domain name is Lingyun, I thought it was a coincidence."

Yunling smiled helplessly, "I didn't pay attention when naming it, so I reported a name casually, and later thought It's too late to change..."

"No wonder you were the first to plant green plants, no wonder you sent someone to build a well, no wonder you found someone to build a fountain, no wonder you like to collect all kinds of materials." Blame the adventure game, you're playing a business game."

That's also true. Yun Ling said in his heart.

You Qingwen's mood was ups and downs, and she couldn't calm down for a long time. After a long time, I asked, "Why don't you tell everyone directly that you are the lord of Lingyun Town?"

"If you insist," Yunling thought for a while, "probably because I am used to playing single-player games? I don't want to interact with too many people. I just want to play my own game quietly."

In her eyes, Lingyun Town is no different from other system territories. Like the system, she willfully unlocks buildings and creates "characteristic" territories. If the player is accustomed to live, he will change place if he is not used to it.

Things are as simple as that, don't have to be too complicated.

You Qingwen, "..."

Permanently stand-alone, refused to connect to the Internet, and suddenly understood.

"Why tell me?" You Qingwen asked again.

Yun Ling smiled, "Doomsday game, in the era of food shortage, you are willing to give me cakes and salt, what can you trust?"

She took out a rectangular cloth bag from the cotton backpack, which was filled with ice cubes, which is a rough estimate. Dozens of pieces, "The territory has unlocked the ice storehouse and can produce ice cubes. I wanted to send it to you a long time ago, but I don't know how to explain the source. Now it's fine, if you want to give it away, you can send it."

You Qingwen muttered Muttered to myself, "I finally understand why you refused to accept cakes before." The

entire territory is owned by others, so how could it be possible to greet such a few pieces of cakes?

Maybe you think you are exploiting the poor by accepting it?

You Qingwen has a lot of thoughts, and her mind is confused.

"You're welcome, take it." Yunling stuffed the cloth bag full of ice cubes into You Qingwen's hand.

"Then... I'll accept it." You Qingwen really needs it, so she is not polite, "Say the next day I am short of salt, and I will bring it to you."

The only thing that can be found at the moment seems to be salt.

"I also hired someone to make salt, and I have enough." Yunling smiled, "I think you have a lot of salt. Should I not use it up?"

You Qingwen admitted, " I can't use it up. I discussed it with Mingyue. I plan to keep a batch for my own use, and then sell the remaining part."

After speaking, he was distressed, "Even if the container is not easy to find, sales are also a problem. Team members are either busy hunting, collecting, or engaged in life and occupation. Busy with manual work, who has time to set up a stall to sell salt?"

"Do you want to cooperate?" Yunling timely invited, "The salt is sold in restaurants, and the paper packaging is provided by me. After the sale, the net profit will be 20%. , 80% belongs to you."

You Qingwen stared at Yunling blankly, and was stunned for a moment.

...

You Qingwen walked home in a daze, looking very dazed.

"What's the matter?" Zheng Mingyue couldn't help asking with concern when his girlfriend was in despair.

"No how." Mrs Qing Wen moved his lips, face stiff, "is to negotiate a few thousand, tens of thousands of big business, our family is about to get rich."

Zheng Mingyue, "???"

a good one, Why do you go out and start talking nonsense when you come back?

**

Overnight, the amount of salt sold daily in restaurants skyrocketed.

Although each person can still only buy one pack per day, at least there is no need to rob it. Residents are busy with work every day, so take a walk and buy a copy.

At the same time, Zheng Mingyue was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

Reminiscent of the sharp increase in the supply of salt in restaurants, he reacted, "Is the salt sold in the restaurant?"

"Yes." You Qingwen had planned to tell Yunling's affairs, and it was unnecessary to think about it, but said, "I completed a special task and was allowed to sell salt in a restaurant. It was a surprise that day, and it couldn't be delayed for a while. God."

Zheng Mingyue understood very well. At this moment, he was so excited, he also didn't know what to do, and he was dizzy.

After taking a few deep breaths, he reluctantly calmed down, "Go, let's go to a scientific researcher. He makes salt, and half of his income."

You Qingwen couldn't help feeling, "No wonder he insisted that everything he carries with him is Eat guys, you can't throw them away."

Now that I think about it, it makes sense.

**

Peaceful days always go by quickly.

Before long, Yunling collected enough copper coins to upgrade the residence to level 2.

Folk House (Level 2): ​​Simple wooden houses and stone houses for players to live in. It takes 100/500 copper coins to build one. (Current level, up to 1,000 rooms can be built)

Yunling thinks that wooden houses and stone houses jointly occupy the residential quotas. Most players want to live in a room, a few players want to live in a spacious room, it is best to have more space to store food.

After thinking about it, she built 20 stone houses and 80 wooden houses to provide players with more choices.

**

You Qingwen and Zheng Mingyue have just found the big tech guys to divide the money on the front foot, and they saw a mansion next to the residential area on the back foot.

[Name: Stone House]

Effect of use: After purchase, the player can have 100 square meters of private space, and other people are not allowed to enter without permission.

Price: 5000 copper coins.

Note: For special props, each official resident is limited to purchase one.

5000 copper coins!

It was an astronomical figure for them in the past, but now, if you buy 4,000 copper coins a day, and 2,000 copper coins are evenly divided, it takes only two days to save money.

"Or save enough copper coins, let's move." Zheng Mingyue suggested softly.

You Qingwen nodded, "Okay."

**

With a big house, there is no need to feel wronged to live in a small single room.

Yunling took the lead to move into the stone house and called the npc to help her move. By the way, he moved the bushes, pine and cypress trees to the back garden.

Compared with wooden houses, stone houses occupy a larger area. The back garden behind the house is half the size of a football field.

NPC is working hard to transplant bushes, and Yunling found that there was also movement in the back garden of the next stone house.

"What a coincidence." The neighbor greeted her friendly when they saw her.

Yun Ling, "..."

Why is it him again?

"Unexpectedly, I became a neighbor again." Yunling was surprised.

That person was Lu Chuan, who, like her, moved in the first time.

Lu Chuan said, "There are too many debris in the house. I just saw a stone house for sale, so I just changed the place."

"What a coincidence, I think so too." Yun Ling said.

Lu Chuan said again, "Stone houses are expensive and very few can afford them. Maybe the neighbors in the future will be acquaintances." After

a few greetings, he turned to enter the house and went to pack his luggage.

"So," when he said, Yunling had an inexplicable thought in his heart, "In the future, the tent area will be a slum area, the wooden house area will be a residential area, and the stone house area will be a gangster area or a luxury residence area?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help being silent.

She didn't want to divide the residents into three, six or nine classes. However, based on personal abilities and economic conditions, it seems that there is a gap between them...

**

Farmer A, intermediate farming, taking care of 5 farmland.

Farmer B, senior farming, taking care of 10 farmland.

Farmer C is an intermediate farmer who takes care of 5 farmland.

As a result, all the fields are taken care of by the npc, and there is no one left.

In order to recruit professionals, Yunling really waited for a while. Sometimes the "primary farming" npc is used, and they would rather give up than hire.

Fortunately, good luck, it didn't take long.

**

A blink of an eye, another 10 days passed.

The bushes bear fruit on time, and the farmland harvests on time.

Once it was born and twice it was ripe, Yun Ling roughly guessed that it was not that she was unlucky, but that it would take 10 days for the crop to reach maturity.

She was extremely speechless, "10 days to mature, 10 days to mature, why write 5-10 days?"

From the 6th day onwards, she is full of expectations every day.
