For four days, Jiang He did not step out of his front door.
The happiest thing for him every day was waking up early in the morning to harvest hundred-dollar bills. Earning ten thousand dollars every day without doing anything was so comfortable and relaxing.
[Ding!]
[+ 1 Farm Point.]
[Ding …]
System Notifications jingled beside his ears.
Jiang He's eyes, however, were glued to the System Panel.
The EXP bar behind his farm level was slowly increasing. Each hundred-dollar bill gained 0.05 EXP, and a hundred bills meant 5 EXP.
Finally, he had harvested all 100 hundred-dollar bills for the day.
[Ding!]
A crisp System Notification jingled beside his ears. [Congratulations, Host. You have successfully leveled up your farm to Level 2. Additional rewards: Pea seeds x3, System Backpack + 3 boxes.]
Jiang He breathed a long sigh and turned to the System Panel.
[Name: Jiang He]
[Cultivation: Rank-Three Advanced]
[Ability: None]
[Martial Arts Cultivation: Indestructible Diamond (Initiate +)]
[Owned Land: 888m ²]
[Farm Level: 2 (EXP 1/500)]
[System Backpack: 6 boxes]
[System Shop: Unlocked]
[Farm Points: 463]
"Eh?
My cultivation has actually reached rank-three advanced? "
"I've been eating and sleeping over the last few days and didn't even pay attention to improving my cultivation …"
"There are around fifty-five cucumbers left, and I'd probably reach rank-four after eating another fifteen … but I'll have to cultivate once I do that."
Rank-One, rank-two, and rank-three body refinement.
While other martial artists would have to cultivate to refine their bodies, Jiang He only needed to eat cucumbers. But rank-four was different …
Rank-Four martial artists cultivated True Qi.
That required a cultivation technique.
"The farm has been upgraded to Lv2, so I can plant two more martial arts. In addition to the Nine Yang Manual, I also need a movement technique … Wave-like Subtle Steps is a good choice. I don't know if I can find the cultivation method of Wave-like Subtle Steps on the internet, but it doesn't matter if I can't find it. Anyway, those on the internet are all made up.
"I didn't have the time to test if I could plant weapons before. Maybe I should find a chance."
Before he knew it, it was already noon.
Jiang He took a look at the time and sighed. "Seven days ago. I awakened my System around this time, didn't I? I didn't expect that seven days would pass in the blink of an eye. "
"Let's test out the effects of the pea seeds rewarded by the system first!"
Just as he was about to plant the peas, another system notification sounded in his head.
"Ding!"
"Seven-day gift package has been issued. Please check and receive it yourself."
"Oh?"
Jiang He did a double take, but soon could not help laughing.
Seven-day gift pack …
Why is this the same as the farming games I played in my previous life? If he logged in for seven consecutive days, he would be rewarded with a seven-day gift pack, and if he logged in for a month, he would also be rewarded with a gift pack.
He looked at the System Backpack.
Jiang He put the cucumber in the first compartment of his System Backpack.
Currently, the number of cucumbers was 55.
In the second compartment, there was corn.
Over the last few days, Jiang He had been surviving on cucumbers to improve his cultivation and did not eat any corn, which was why he had eighty-two corn stalks left.
In the third grid were three golden pea seeds.
In the fourth compartment, there was a brocade pouch.
With a thought, the brocade pouch opened.
[Congratulations, Host. You have obtained Mysterious Soil.]
A small bag similar to the fertilizer sold in the flower market appeared in Jiang He's backpack. It was palm-sized, and inside it was —
"What the hell!"
"What's that pitch-black lump?"
Jiang He looked at it, and a bunch of data appeared.
[Mysterious Soil]
[Mysterious Soil] has mysterious effects and strengthens plants. Improves soil conditions for a short time, allowing the soil outside to have the same effect as the farm.]
Jiang He was a little speechless.
What good would that do?
Couldn't I just plant it at home?
"By the way, System, I've read in novels that farmers carry a farm around with them and plant it anywhere and anytime. Why are you so low?"
"System?"
"System?"
Jiang He cursed inwardly and was about to test the pea seed's ability when someone knocked on his door just as the System did not respond.
Someone was banging on the door, and a loud voice could be heard.
A loud voice came in. "Old Jiang, are you home?"
Jiang He glanced at Dumbo, who was lying at his feet and barked, "Damn it, aren't you going to bark when someone's here?"
Other people's dogs might not even be able to keep them chained up if they were to make such a noise. What about Dumbo?
It was listless, and only looked up weakly and barked a few times when it heard Jiang He's words.
"…"
Jiang He kicked Dumbo away before leaving the yard and opening the gates.
Gates in rural areas were usually made of steel, and most of them were green, bright red, or silver.
Jiang He's house's gates were bright red, but it was a little rusty since it was a little old.
When he opened the gates, he found that there was a five-finger print on it.
The print was so clear that it directly caved in the steel.
At the gates, a skinny man wearing sunglasses and a suit smiled awkwardly. "Sorry about that, Old Jiang … but don't worry, I'll get you a new gate."
That man who looked like a dog was Two Dog Li!
His real name was Li Fei.
Jiang He scowled and was at a loss for words. "Can't you hold back a little when you're knocking?"
"I've just awakened, and I'm not that familiar with it yet."
"By the way, weren't you captured by the National Special Case Management Bureau? Were you released? "
"Captured what?"
Li Fei took off his sunglasses and chuckled smugly. "I was invited there, alright?"
As he spoke, he deliberately lifted his suit a little to reveal the identification he kept in his shirt pocket. "The National Special Case Management Bureau knows that I've awakened superpowers," he said flatly. "That's why they invited me to join their organization," he said flatly.
"Sigh …"
"I'm used to being free, and not used to being controlled."
"But the National Special Case Management Bureau invited me with great hospitality, and since I'm working for the country, I had no choice but to join them."
Hehe.
Holding back his laughter, Jiang He deliberately said, "Are you that awesome? Doesn't that mean you're an official now? "
The guy clearly knew that he was a beast-tamer, and came to show off.
Of course.
He might not know that Jiang He already knew that he was a D-class Awakened with superstrength, the lowest of superhumans and the most average of them all. In terms of usefulness, he was not even as useful as Wang Siyu.
As the two chatted …
That was when Wang Siyu approached them from the distance.
"Li Fei, you're here too?"
"What a coincidence. I don't have to inform you about the operation tonight."
She turned towards Jiang He.
Out of habit, Jiang He imagined various scenes of him and Wang Siyu doing it … but Wang Siyu did not blush. Instead, she appeared surprised.
She had used her mind-reading ability.
Even so, she did not sense what Jiang He was thinking.
"Her mind-reading ability doesn't work on me now that my ability has improved?" Jiang He thought to himself. That should have been a good thing, but why did he feel a little disappointed?
Meanwhile, Wang Siyu mused to herself for a moment before seething, "Jiang He, could you help me?"
"Baitugang Village was attacked by Ferals last night, with three dead and eight injured along with many livestock dead. Most of the organization's elites have gone to Mount Dadong recently, so we're short on manpower. Since you're a beast-tamer, I'd like to ask for your help …"
Jiang He did not agree right away.
After some thought, he asked, "What's the level of the Ferals?"
"I can help, but I have a condition."
"I want to know about the Revival of Qi. Could the security bureau provide me some information in that regard?"
