Apocalypse Lord - Chapter 48

I don’t know if it was because of unlocking the construction “farmland”. The next morning, Yunling recruited relevant professionals.

Level: 0

Attributes: Strength 6, Agility 5, Physical Strength 6, Intelligence 5, Spirit 5.

Combat skills: None

Life skills: Intermediate farming.

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

Advanced farming, taking 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 leave in the morning and returned to Lingyun Town in the evening. After walking a lot of places, I only found 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…

If you don’t meet it at present, can you continue to transplant if you 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 won’t let it.”

“I grabbed two chickens and wanted to raise them, and the system didn’t allow them.”

“Only by becoming an official resident of Lingyun Town, buying a house and having a wooden fence, can we raise chickens and farm the land.

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 will you sleep tonight?”

Pang Yu’s eyebrows were full of unconcealed joy, “Buy a house! Move today! I invite you to a housewarming dinner another day!”

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

One person coldly snorted, “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!”

The words were sonorous and powerful, 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.

**

Regardless of the 1,250 small ice cubes produced in the ice storehouse 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 Building: 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: The lord can set up an access list to allow specific groups of people to use it.)

Farmland (Level 1): Omitted. 】

In this way, the ice storehouse produces 12,500 ice cubes per day, which is enough for daily use.

There is 1 left in the building, and the smithy can unlock it anytime 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.

**

Both 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.

Yun Ling couldn’t help but wonder about life, “Is my luck so bad? Harvest every 5-10 days, no more, no less, just the 10th day?”

Stunned for a moment, she sent NPCs to pick them and sent them to the warehouse for storage, and then began 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 has 30 days. The first 20 days of disaster mode, and 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 autumn.

**

In the afternoon of the same day, all five wells were drilled in the southeast, northwest and middle.

Hu Dacheng: “Look, you are not satisfied.”

Yunling checked one by one, and felt a little calm, “You did a good job.”

There are five wells in the territory. Even if there is a drought in the future, you don’t have 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 tell me. I have been in the countryside for more than ten years, and I can do a lot of things.”

Yunling smiled and nodded, “Okay, I will find you again if I have a living.”

After discussing properly, Hu Dacheng rushed home happily. He can’t wait to tell his family that we are rich! You can buy a house!

**

The 63rd day.

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 is she here?

Yunling clicks “Yes”.

As soon as she walked in, You Qingwen smiled brightly, “I’m here to bring you delicious food!”

Yun Ling was puzzled, “What’s delicious?”

“Lotus root powder osmanthus cake!”

“green bean cake!”

“Egg rolls!”

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

Checking the items, Yunling found the panel to display–

[Name: Osmanthus cake with lotus root flour (relieving summer pastry)]

Quality: Normal

Use effect: Basic recovery speed: +1 point of health/minute, +1 point of mana/minute. (Lasts 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 points of life per minute. (Lasts 1 hour)

These are all restoration props 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, as soon as summer started, nearly half of the stored grains were rotted. In order to restock the grains, I was so busy that I couldn’t find anything good.”

“Now, there is a chance to return the gift.”

Seeing that Yunling hadn’t picked it up, You Qingwen tried her best to sell it, “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, the more you want to eat it.”

“Mung bean cake has a delicate taste, melts in the mouth, and smells of mung bean scent.”

“The egg rolls are particularly crispy. One bite, full of egg and milk flavor.”

Seeing that the other party was still unmoved, You Qingwen thought fiercely, 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.

Check the item, I only see the panel display——

【Name: Table Salt】

Quality: Normal

Use effect: make food salty, 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 a person. I heard that it was a scientific researcher who used to specialize in the chemical industry.”

“When I met him, I took a lot of glass bottles and instruments with me. Asking him to throw things away, he insisted on not saying that these were the guys who were eating.”

“I didn’t take it seriously, but after a few days, he brought a large jar of salt to the door and said that we were very grateful for saving him. A small gift is no respect.”

Up till now, You Qingwen still feels palpitations, “A big jar of salt! Pure game items! I don’t hesitate to give it away when I say it. Zheng Mingyue and I were frightened and said privately, it’s not. Rescue one person, but 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, many Chinese cakes can be made.”

“We reached an agreement, the team provided the materials, he provided the craftsmanship, and the finished products were divided in half.”

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

You Qingwen nodded repeatedly, “That’s right.”

“He said it was not safe to stay in other territories and wanted to go to Lingyun Town, the most prosperous territory. The result was that he was cheated, robbed, and chased all the way, and his life was particularly miserable.”

“If others hadn’t looked down on his instruments, they would have snatched them away.”

At the end, she changed the conversation, “You can accept the pastries and salt, we don’t need it. I think you need it too, 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.”

Ask where does the salt come from? 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. This is 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 on the sunny day smashed her directly into the stupid.

After a long time, she recovered, “What is a public beta player? What does it mean that you are the lord of Lingyun Town?”

“On April 1st, the post-apocalyptic natural disaster game was officially launched. In fact, some people were selected to participate in the open beta before this.” Yun Ling said, explaining her experience and surviving rewards during the open 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 your domain name is Lingyun. I thought it was a coincidence.”

Yun Ling smiled helplessly, “I didn’t pay attention when naming it, so I reported a name casually, but it was too late to change it later…”

“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 are playing a business game.”

That’s correct. 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 just tell everyone 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, so I want to play my own games 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.

It’s that simple, don’t have to be too complicated.

You Qingwen, “…”

Permanent stand-alone, refuse to connect to the Internet, and suddenly understand.

“Why tell me?” You Qingwen asked again.

Yun Ling smiled, “A game of doomsday, in the age of food shortage, you are willing to give me cakes and salt, what can’t you trust?”

She took out a rectangular cloth bag from the cotton backpack, which was filled with ice cubes. It was roughly estimated to be dozens of pieces. “The territory has unlocked the ice store and can produce ice cubes. I wanted to send it to you a long time ago, but I don’t know how to explain it. Source. It’s all right now. If you want to send it, you can send it.”

You Qingwen muttered to herself, “I finally understand why you refused to accept cakes before.”

The whole territory is owned by others, 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 take it.” You Qingwen really needs it, so she’s not polite. “Say the lack of salt another day, and I’ll send it to you.”

At present, the only thing that can be obtained is salt.

“I also hired someone to make salt. I used enough.” Yunling smiled. “I think you have a lot of salt. Shouldn’t you use it up?”

You Qingwen admitted, “I can’t use it up. I discussed with Ming Yue, I plan to keep a batch for my own use, and then sell the rest.”

After finishing speaking, he looked distressed, “Even the containers are not easy to find, and the sales are also a problem. The team members are either busy hunting and gathering, or engaged in life and occupation, busy doing manual work, who has time to set up a stall to sell salt?”

“Do you want to cooperate?” Yunling issued an invitation at the right time, “The salt is sold in restaurants, and the paper packaging is provided by me. After the sale, 20% of the net income will go to me, and 80% to you.”

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

…

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.

“It’s okay.” You Qingwen moved her lips, her expression stiff, “It’s just a big deal of thousands, tens of thousands of dollars, and our family is about to get rich overnight.”

Zheng Mingyue, “???”

A good person, how can you go out and start talking nonsense when you come back?

**

Overnight, the daily amount of salt sold 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 his income is half.”

You Qingwen couldn’t help but sigh, “No wonder he insists that all he carries with him are those who eat and cannot be thrown away.”

Thinking about it now, it does make 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 1000 can be built)

Yunling thought, the wooden house and stone house jointly occupied the residential quota. 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 had just asked the tech bosses to divide the money, but they saw an extra mansion next to the residential area.

【Name: Stone House】

Use effect: 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.”

**

There is no need to feel wronged to live in a small single room if you have a big house.

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.

Yunling, “…”

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 clutter, and the house is about to be piled up. I just saw a stone house for sale, so I simply changed the place.”

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

Lu Chuan added, “The price of stone houses is high and few can afford them. Maybe the neighbors in the future will be acquaintances.”

After a few greetings, he turned around and entered the house, packed his luggage and went.

“So,” when he said, Yunling had an inexplicable thought in his heart, “From now on, 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 big brother area or a luxury residence area?”

Thinking of this, I can’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.

**

In 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?”

As a result, she was full of expectations every day from the 6th day.
