Divine Farming System - Chapter 6
“Ah. it’s not much village chief just 500 sacks” Feng Shaotian replied smiling.
The Village Chief almost tripped down. 500? That would be 5 gold coins, 1 sack can be sold for 10 copper. So 10 copper x 500 equals 5,000 copper coins, if converted into silver it would be 50, converting to gold it would be 5 gold coins and also 500 sacks would be 45% of their stock.
That would surely hurt the village interest and prosperity. Asking for 500 sacks for free would be no different from robbery.
“Young Man, t-that’s a bit, you see..” The Village Chief tried to explain while scratching his head in embarrassment. Ashamed to take back what he said just seconds ago.
Feng Shaotian signaled the Village Chief to stop talking and said “I’ll just buy it”.
The village chief heaved a sighs of relief as Feng Shaotian was considerate enough. They then went to the village storehouse and Feng Shaotian bought everything he needed.
Feng Shaotian put the sacks inside his barn with just a wave of his hand. His action made Chief Jing dumbstruck and unmoving.
Feng Shaotian then paid 10 gold coins for it and the horse while the carriage was given for free. The carriage was made from agar wood though it look unartistic, it still has practical uses.
In the front was a driver seat while behind it was covered with clothes, It has a medium open space where 20 sacks of rice can be stacked. Feng Shaotian and Fatty Ma left the village afterwards. It would take 5 days before they arrived at Huangshan City.
The carriage slowly departed with Fatty Ma driving it. Traveling was hard from Tianjin to Huangshan as the road isn’t cemented.
Feng Shaotian went inside his mini world silently, ‘since Golden Rice is quite expensive then let’s plant more’.

“Ding Bang, why don’t you change your appearance and become a human?” Feng Shaotian asked.
“I don’t like being a human, they’re weak. It also makes me uncomfortable walking with only two limbs” Ding Bang replied complaining.
“Then you can just stay here and starved to death” Feng Shaotian said nonchalantly, “Fatty Ma told me that there are lots of tasty food in Huangshan City, unfortunately magic beast are not allowed there”
“I’ll be staying outside for a few days or so, as for you, just slept here all you want” Feng Shaotian added chuckling.
Ding Bang felt conflicted, ‘If I want to eat delicious food, I have to transform and become a human, if not, master would just leave me here starving’.
“Master.. If..if I transform into a human, will you really buy me food?” Ding Bang asked drooling.
“Of course my dear Ding Bang” Feng Shaotian replied smiling from ear to ear.
Awoooo!
Black lights suddenly converge to Ding Bang’s position, his size slowly shrunk from the massive two story building to a normal person’s height.
He looked no different from other human being. His build is for a middle aged man, muscular and full of vitality but the hair was a mixture of black and gray.
He wore black fenrir robe surrounded by red blood aura. Seeing Ding Bang’s transformation, Feng Shaotian couldn’t help but marvel. ‘ah such magical thing, a dog turning into a noble’.
“How do I look master?” Ding Bang enthusiastically asked.
“That’s much better than before. Anyway, from now on you’ll be my Marshall. You are also not allowed to transform back into your real form without my permission, got it?” Feng Shaotian said.
The both of them then left the mini world happily. The surroundings become quiet after Ding Bang was out. His oppressive force deterred the monster lurking outside.
Feng Shaotian busily organized the things he had to consider for the Chamber of Commerce establishment, when suddenly a mechanical voice of a girl sounded inside his head.

Feng Shaotian saw this message prompt in front of his eyes. After reading it, he found out that it was a Quest. Some has time limit and the others doesn’t.

Feng Shaotian couldn’t help but salivate by how good infrastructure is. However, all he could do bow was stare at it, the price tag given by the system was so vicious.
However there is nothing he could do about it, he can only blame himself for being poor.

Several hours had passed.
Feng Shaotian went inside his mini world and started organizing his harvest for the day. He received 50 sacks of Golden Rice, 20 sacks of Red Beans, and 30 sacks for the other crops.
It was ⅕ of the sacks he bought from the village. He then spend all 2,000 gold coins for opening new plots of land and only planted Golden Rice in it.
He also started designing where to place all the infrastructure for the future, he also arranged the plots of land for farming. The Barn and House was in the central part while Herbal Medicine will be planted north in the future, Crops in the west, infrastructure in the east.
While south was left to build house’s for his subordinates and training camp for them to grow stronger. He then went back to the carriage and have a chat with Ding Bang.
***
After finding some safe place to stop, Fatty Ma then confidently went to the back. He plan to ask Feng Shaotian about dinner.
On the other hand Ding Bang who was bored to death happily walked out from the carriage.
Fatty Ma and Ding Bang met staring fixedly with each other. Fatty Ma’s eyes constricted seeing Ding Bang who’s feature looks no different from a murderer. With a bloody aura, green eyes that keep flickering with cold light and a creepy smile plastered on the face intimidated him greatly.
“F*ck a humanoid monster!”
Fatty Ma shouted in alarm. Being stared by Ding Bang, he was so scared that he pass out collapsed in the ground. Even white liquid came out from his mouth continuously.
“What happened?” Feng Shaotian immediately went outside to see the situation, his eyes saw Fatty Ma’s pathetic figure lying on the ground fuming.
“Master I didn’t do anything, that idiot just collapsed without warning, I swear master, it’s not me” Ding Bang explained in helplessness.
“Sigh.. just wake him up or we’ll have no dinner tonight” Feng Shaotian said shaking his head.
***
Under the veil of the dark night.
Shadowy figures could be seen flashing through the rays from the moonlight. There are currently 30 figures in total hiding in tree’s and the bushes.
A line of caravan could be seen several meters ahead of them. A few seconds later, from one of the caravan, a faint silhouette of a man came out sneakily.
“Long time no see brothers” the silhouette said smiling after arriving at the 30 people hiding in the dark.
