Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

Seeing Lin Xia coming, Ban immediately greeted her with narrowed eyes: "Welcome, you are our first customer, please feel free to look around!"

Lin Xia stepped forward and looked at the items on the counter:

Record player: 2000G

Records 1-10: 500-1400G

Copper Ore: 150G

Silver Ore: 200G

Gold: 250G

Mithril: 400G

. . . . . .

Lin Xia was thinking in her heart, what was the shipping price of her ore?

Copper 15G, Silver 20G, Gold 25G, Mithril 40G~

Wow, the price has increased 10 times! Another profiteer, even more treacherous than Huo An!

Appraisal completed! Lin Xia looked at the things other than the ore, the record player and the records. These were things for enjoyment! At present, the workaholic Lin Xia probably couldn't use them for the time being. He touched his empty wallet and gave up.

Ben looked at Lin Xia's expression and knew that he probably couldn't open the store today. However, he was not angry and still said cheerfully: "It seems that the goods here are not to the customers' liking! Don't worry, we will also update new products from time to time. You can come back when you need them!"

Seeing that Ben was about to wave his handkerchief to say goodbye, Lin Xia was speechless and was about to say goodbye and leave, but then she heard Ben say, "In fact, I still have a lot of very valuable goods here, but they are only for sale to like-minded friends! You will know in the future!"

For some reason, Lin Xia suddenly thought of the bottle of "Ban's favorite thing".

Lin Xia left the hotel and went straight to the grocery store.

Lin Xia looked at the summer crop seeds provided by the grocery store, and sure enough, there were only three kinds.

Tomatoes are 200g per bag. You only need to sow once and you can harvest repeatedly. The growth cycle is 10 days from sowing to the first harvest, and then every 3 days.

Corn weighs 300g per bag, and you only need to sow once, and you can harvest repeatedly. It takes 15 days from sowing to the first harvest, and then every 3 days.

Onions are sold in a bag of 150g. They need to be replanted after harvesting. It takes 8 days from sowing to harvesting. If you sow immediately on the day of harvesting, you can harvest 4 times in total throughout the summer.

This time, Lin Xia only bought 10 bags of tomatoes and corn, and 40 bags of onions, spending a total of G. This is enough for this summer. After the crops are harvested, she can stockpile the crop seeds for next summer at the end of the season.

After buying the seeds, Lin Xia currently has G left! She is so nervous!

After leaving the grocery store, he went to find the dwarf to arrange work and then rushed home immediately.

When I passed by a blacksmith shop on the way, I suddenly remembered that the kettle I commissioned last time should have been remodeled, so I turned in.

"Good morning, Sebala, Gray!"

Sabara froze visibly for a moment, then said seriously, "Good morning, Lin Xia! The mithril kettle you commissioned last time has been processed. Take it!"

Lin Xia: "Okay! Thank you for your hard work!"

Lin Xia took the kettle and smiled secretly, then said seriously: "Saibala, I have to trouble you again~"

As Lin Xia spoke, he observed Sebala. Sure enough, the old man's face was becoming more and more bitter. Lin Xia stopped teasing the old man and said, "Haha, no, you've been working hard lately! I won't ask you to upgrade the farm tools this time. I just want to ask you, do you know anything about hunting tools?"

Sure enough, when Sebala heard about hunting, he immediately became excited: "You want to hunt! Haha, good, I'll find the drawings of hunting tools made by the old ranchers and study them. When the time comes, I'll make a set and you can see if it can be used."

When talking about things that interest him, Saibala becomes full of energy and no longer feels tired!

Lin Xia: "How do you calculate the price? I'm a little short of money right now, so if it's too expensive, I may not be able to do it for now~"

"You are allowed to use it first and pay later, or you can use the prey to pay off your debt later!" Saibala said proudly. It seems that his desire for prey has reached a certain level.

After the two of them made a happy decision, Lin Xia took the kettle and left.

After returning to the ranch, we first planted corn, tomatoes and onions. There were five dwarfs working today. After helping to water 5 acres of land, we went to have lunch.

After lunch, I checked my mailbox and received an email from Gotz notifying me of the completion of the expansion of the animal house:

Your animal house expansion is now complete.

How about it? More spacious than before, right?

You can raise more animals and add processing machines!

By the way, I also provide crop processing workshop construction. If you want, please come to me again.

The Lumberjack's House Goetz

Very good, the residents of the small town also introduce business to each other!

What is a crop processing workshop? Lin Xia decided to find Goetz to learn more about it when she went to the back mountain in the afternoon!

There is also a regular product introduction email from the Blacksmith:

I heard that you have already built an animal house, but you don’t have a “cheese processor” or a “yarn ball processor” or a “butter processor”, so I recommend you add these. - Sebala Blacksmith Shop

To be honest, Gray was still an apprentice in the blacksmith shop, and it was all up to Sabala to make one thing. It took several days to make one thing, and he had to keep polishing it. Just for the things that Lin Xia needed to add, it would probably take more than a year for Sabala to do it continuously. Moreover, Lin Xia wanted to ask him to help research hunting tools, but she didn't know if he was busy enough to come.

After receiving the kitchen knife today, Lin Xia decided to try the pickled radish recipe she got from Sebala. Anyway, Lin Xia has a lot of radishes now!

Following Saibala's instructions, Lin Xia first cleaned the radish, cut it into strips with a knife, seasoned it with salt and vinegar, and put it in a container. The kitchen has its own prompt to detect whether the cooking is successful. If successful, it will prompt whether to save the recipe; if it fails, it will remind you of the failure.

Generally speaking, if you cook according to the recipes given by the town residents, you will basically succeed. However, you need to be careful when creating your own dishes, as there is a risk of failure.

After successfully pickling the radish, Lin Xia tasted it and found it tasted good. If she could add some chili peppers or something, it would taste even better. How about adding some sugar? Lin Xia used to like the sweet and sour pickled radish!

So, Lin Xia tried again, adding sugar and soaking in water to the original recipe, and it worked! Kitchen Tip: The "Sweet and Sour Radish" was successfully made. Should it be recorded in the recipe?

Lin Xia happily clicked OK. There were still potatoes and cucumbers in her refrigerator. The potatoes could not be pickled, but the cucumbers could!

So Lin Xia followed the recipes for pickled radish and sweet and sour radish, replacing the main ingredient with cucumber. This was also successful, and she got two new recipes, which made her happy.

Lin Xia prepared 20 portions of pickled radish, pickled cucumber, sweet and sour radish and sweet and sour cucumber according to the recipe, and planned to take some to share with the residents in the town. As for food, it is necessary to communicate with each other so that cooking skills can improve!

After putting all four dishes into the backpack, I went to the logging cabin in the back mountain to find Goetz: "Goetz, good afternoon! Let me show you the pickled radish I made. I grew the radish myself!"

Goetz was happy: "Really? That's amazing, let me try it!"

I don’t know whether to praise Lin Xia for being good at growing radishes or for being good at making pickled radishes, haha~

"Why does the pickled radish you made taste so much like the one made by Cebala?" Gotz wondered.

Lin Xia: "He taught me how to do it. How is it? Do you have his essence?"

Goetz gave a thumbs up: "Very good, almost the same as what he did!"

Lin Xia smiled and said, "How about you try my homemade sweet and sour radish?"

Goetz...

Why are there only radishes?

Gotz took it and tasted it again. His eyes lit up immediately after he finished eating: "This is delicious! It's sour and sweet and very appetizing! The pickled radish is a good dish to go with rice, and this sweet and sour radish is a good dish to go with wine! I like it!"

Seeing Gotz enjoying his meal and having his cooking skills recognized, Lin Xia felt particularly satisfied!
