3. His Family Is Ruthless;

Although the antique car was very old-fashioned, it was still speedy. In just half an hour, they arrived at, well, a wasteland from Starport.

That was right. A wasteland indeed.

"This... is our farm?" Gu Bai had imagined that the farm might be desolate, but what he saw here broke his dream.

There were only a few families scattered around it, and the houses there were dilapidated. Inside the farm were half-human tall grass thriving well. Obviously, they had taken over this place for long.

"Yes, you are watching it. No one has paid any attention to it for a long time," Bulter Gu sighed.

Ever since Senior Gu and the whole family moved to the Central Star, Gu Qi went there with them and didn't return until Senior Mr. and Mrs. Gu both passed away.

Gu Bai glanced at the farm again, his eyes burning with passion.

Desolate? The farm was going to be lively again one day.

Wild grass? It didn't matter. The weeding machine could easily destroy them, or he could deal with them with bare hands.

The most important thing was that the entire farm belonged to him, and it was much larger than he imagined!

With this farm, he could plant whatever he wanted: corn, wheat, rice, potatoes, eggplants, and other delicacies like rice, stewed eggplant with minced meat, sweet and sour spare ribs, cooked corns, etc.

In the past ten years, the only thing that kept him motivated was the food before doomsday. He had always wanted to see the end of the miserable days so that he could taste the delicious food he had in mind again.

However, history showed that humans didn't make it but started a new life somewhere else.

"Grandpa Gu, do we have any weeding machine?" Gu Bai couldn't wait to clean up the farm.

"Weeding robots, to be exact, but it costs a lot to hire them," Butler Gu felt embarrassed to say that.

Gu Bai asked, "How much are we talking about?"

"A robot can handle one hectare in a day, and the fee is 1,000 XB."

There were at least 10 hectares on the farm, which meant they had to cost 10,000 XB to hire ten robots. Gu Bai calculated briefly and thought it was acceptable. After all, his pocket money was 10,000 XB each month before he came here.

As a stepmother, Zhao Chunshan had always been generous to Shen Bai to show the outsiders how generous she was. But behind people, she would always lure him into handing in his money.

Despite this, Gu Bai still believed that 10,000 XB wouldn't be a big problem.

Unfortunately, he had overestimated Shen Bai's family. When he opened the intelligent account in mind, it hurt his eyes to see zero balance.

Gu Bai didn't know what to say.

That was ruthless. To prevent Shen Bai from going back to the Central Star, had the Shen family transferred all his money before he left?

No matter what, hiring robots wasn't an option anymore.

"Fine, I can do it myself," Gu Bai said helplessly. The farm was large and the weeds were endless, so it was hard to say when he could finish all this.

Gu Bai wasn't in a hurry, though. Because of the transmigration, he was at level 1 right now. Now that he couldn't plant much land, he could at least weed and improve his level simultaneously.
