Word Spirit Farming System

19 - 20

19. "Witty Bean"

Cheng Yun explained to Yang Hongjin for a long time before he could clarify the meaning of paying him to help with farming.

Cheng Yun initially thought that this simpleton would no longer have to work on the farm, and wondered if he would feel a bit unhappy about it since farming had been a part of his life from childhood. However, Yang Hongjin just nodded and said, "Then I can make tables and chairs for my wife."

Cheng Yun felt as sweet as if he had eaten honey and couldn't help but kiss him on the head.

Yang Hongjin's eyes shone as he was kissed and he followed suit, kissing Cheng Yun's head a few times. Cheng Yun blushed, while the simpleton just laughed.

After washing up in the evening, Yang Hongjin continued to work on his woodworking outside while Cheng Yun lit candles throughout the house that would not be extinguished until bedtime. With sufficient light, Cheng Yun allowed Yang Hongjin to tinker while he went to the backyard to observe the fruits and vegetables he had planted.

It had been over half a month since he had planted the first batch of fruits and vegetables, and some of them had already produced small fruits, although they were still small a few days ago. Cheng Yun watered them every day with rice water, and the plants, which had been affected by the language spirit system, grew vigorously. In just a few days, they had grown large enough to be harvested.

Cheng Yun only planted less than ten types of crops this time, but in the system, each type of crop could earn two points. It only required ten points to upgrade to the first level, fifteen points for the second level, and an additional five points for each subsequent level. The ninth level required fifty points, and to upgrade from the ninth to the tenth level required one hundred points.

Cheng Yun could upgrade to the first level now. If he planted more crops next time, he could upgrade two levels at once. He planned to use the language spirit system on farming in the early stages. After leveling up, he might be able to "correct" Yang Hongjin's intelligence through the language spirit.

Of course, in addition to the upgrade system, upgrading would also unlock the crops in the special illustrated guide. The first level had a crop called the 'Witty Bean', which Cheng Yun had chosen at first glance. After waiting patiently for the first batch of crops to mature, he carefully harvested them one by one, and each crop he harvested illuminated the corresponding illustration in the plant guide.

Once the points triggered the first level upgrade system, the illustrated guide for the first level special crop was unlocked. Cheng Yun then exchanged for the Witty Bean, and the points column in the interface instantly decreased by ten points, while the growth points remained on the progress bar.

In this way, Cheng Yun finally understood the exchange system of this system and was able to put his mind at ease.

The points obtained from activating the illustrated handbook and the points exchanged for a large amount of crops can both be used to upgrade the system. Additionally, points can also be directly used to exchange for crops on special illustrated handbooks or seeds of ordinary crops. The deducted points will not affect the experience bar for upgrading.

This meant that as long as he grew the crops on the illustrated handbook and activated more illustrations, he could upgrade the system while also exchanging for crops.

He tightly grasped the witty beans, which are the size of green beans, with one hand and continues to harvest the remaining crops with the other. After lighting up all the illustrations one by one, his experience bar for upgrading to the second level had increased by half. However, there were still eight points left in the points column that can be used.
