Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

Seeing Lin Xia's confusion, Sha Xia sighed and said, "How can I not be anxious? You are the kind of person who lets people in town buy on credit whenever they insist on buying on credit!

"Hubby, do you understand? If you let people buy on credit, you won't get paid! Isn't Lin Xia the only one who pays normally now?"

Huh? Huh? What the hell? After all this time, it turns out that I am the one who is being blamed! Lin Xia is unhappy. Is this a compliment to herself? But why can't I be happy after hearing this?

So there is such a thing as buying on credit?

Jeff: "I understand. But everyone said they would pay later."

"So, has anyone come to pay?"

"Hmm..." Jeff was speechless.

Lin Xia became even more unhappy. She felt like she had lost hundreds of millions. What was going on?

Sasha: "Ah... You can't be like this... Really, you're a man, right? Then stand up straight! Stand up straight!"

Jeff...

"The next guest who comes, make sure he pays!"

"I know! I'll make him pay."

Will I be the next person who won't say anything? Lin Xia silently looked at the merchandise, determined not to be the next person to pay. She had to see whether the next person would buy on credit or pay.

At this moment, a voice came from the door, and Sasha said in surprise: "Ah, it seems someone is coming. Lin Xia, come here."

Sasha seemed to be worried that Lin Xia's presence would affect Jeff's performance, so she immediately pulled Lin Xia into their living room, where Karen had treated Lin Xia to some dark cuisine last time.

Lin Xia felt very uncomfortable. She was afraid to see the beautiful Karin cooking again. She wanted to invite people to taste the food whenever she saw them. Suddenly, she thought that it would be okay to be the next person to pay.

Sasha didn't notice what Lin Xia was thinking. At this moment, she pressed her whole body against the door panel, listening carefully to the noise outside. Lin Xia was also curious, so she followed Sasha's example and closed the door panel.

A faint voice called out from outside: "Hey, Jeff!"

It turned out to be Dick! He was a big credit buyer. In order to get him to pay back, Karen even had a drinking contest with someone! I wonder if he still hasn't paid back?

"Ah... Hey, Dick." Jeff must have a worried look on his face at this moment.

"I came in to rest my feet and buy something from you."

"Oh, thank you for your patronage." At this moment, Jeff didn't know whether to be happy or sad, haha.

After a while, Dick's carefree voice came: "Well, I'll take this. Keep it on credit for me first."

Hmm? Here comes the point. Sasha next to him is holding her breath. What will Jeff do?

“Ah…wait a minute…”

"What's up, Jeff?"

"C-Can you pay first..." Well, Jeff's tone is getting more and more firm, not bad, not bad.

"What's going on? What happened? I could buy on credit before, but now it's not possible?" Dick was a little unhappy.

"Please, please, just pay the money..." Alas, Jeff's voice weakened again.

Suddenly——"I, I can't buy on credit anymore!"

Oh, Jeff is standing up, Lin Xia also smiled unconsciously, and Sasha next to her clenched her fists excitedly.

"I, I know! But I don't have any money with me now. Come back to get it later!" Dick's voice weakened at this time.

It seems that this is a typical case of being weak when facing a strong opponent - Dick!

"Okay, I understand." Jeff said kindly.

After the two of them finished talking, they heard footsteps leaving outside.

As soon as the sound disappeared, Sasha rushed out happily and said to Jeff with a beaming face, "Honey, you did a great job!"

Lin Xia also nodded repeatedly to show her agreement.

Jeff seemed to have gained courage and affirmation. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Well, even I can't believe it."

"Since you can tell Dick like that, there won't be any problems in the future," Sasha said with relief.

"Yeah, of course."

"My dear, I am impressed by you."

Hmm? Oh no, they are going to show off their affection. I'll stay away from them.

"Hehehe..." This is Jeff's silly laugh.

Lin Xia quickly moved away from the two and went to pick out the things she needed. This time she came here to stock up on some wheat flour, and also to buy a few more sets of clothes and shoes. She had been going to the mountains a lot recently, and her clothes were getting worn out quickly.

Lin Xia also bought some daily toiletries and new styles of hairbands, which she also bought.

It has been more than a month since I came here. My hair has grown a lot longer. There is no barber shop in the town, and Lin Xia doesn't want to just pull it out, so she decided to tie it up first.

When I have enough money and time later, I will go to the city across the sea to have a look. In fact, I would like to go to the Twin Village to see what different animals and crops there are.

However, you still have to manage your ranch well and earn more money first. Poor people are not qualified to be willful.

I took the necessary things and went to Jeff to settle the bill, which cost G in total.

As expected, shopping is the way to make people happy. Now I feel much better. Let's go home for dinner!

After lunch, they rested for a while. There was nothing important to do in the afternoon, so Lin Xia decided to bring a few plates of pickled radish and have dinner with Huo An in the evening. Alas, she let him down last time, so this time she would take it as compensation.

After watching the dwarfs in the afternoon, we went to the beach to fish for some fish. Radish definitely won’t be able to get any food.

Unfortunately, my current fishing rod is still at the beginner level, and the most I catch are various small fish. Occasionally I can catch a few medium-sized fish, which all depends on luck. I still need to hurry up and upgrade it.

However, looking at the net in the hunting tool, I wonder if this net can catch fish? It's okay if there are no fish or shrimp!

Since it has been decided to use the net, it would not be appropriate to go to the beach. Lin Xia decided to set up the net in the river that looked like a moat at the edge of her own ranch. The water was constantly flowing, so all kinds of fish and shrimps, regardless of size, would be caught in the net.

Lin Xia did it right away. He came to the wooden bridge leading to the back mountain of the ranch. He first fixed one end of the net to one side of the stream with something. Then he walked across the wooden bridge holding the other side of the net and fixed it on the other side of the stream, firmly securing it.

Then he took out a bamboo pole that he had broken off from the bamboo forest behind, and kept hitting the water surface and both sides of the river 2 meters away from the fishing net, gradually moving towards the net, trying to drive all the fish and shrimp in the river into the net.

When the net was about 1 meter away from the mouth, Lin Xia dropped the bamboo pole and began to collect the net. Not to mention, with the weight of the water, the net became quite heavy!

Lin Xia gritted her teeth, dragged one side of the fishing net desperately, and walked towards the other side. After successfully grabbing both sides, she dragged it towards the shore with all her strength.

Finally, the fishing net was successfully dragged ashore, and Lin Xia sat down on the ground with relief and gasped for breath. His physical strength was seriously depleted. If there were not many fish and shrimps in the net, then fishing was not a good method!
