Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

Early in the morning, in the chicken and rabbit hut, Lin Xia welcomed the birth of baby rabbit No. 2, a pink little rabbit, so cute!

Kokoda No. 4 has also grown up, and Lin Xia put the egg into the incubator again.

The fur of Bunny No. 1 can also be cut and sold! I haven't purchased a wool processing machine yet, so I can only sell it directly.

Ah Huang has grown up a lot recently and has become much more friendly with Lin Xia. Specifically, as soon as Lin Xia blows the whistle, Ah Huang can be seen running towards her within 3 seconds.

Bailong is not as good as Ah Huang in listening to whistles, but he is much closer to Lin Xia. He especially likes to run in the pasture and will not return to the house until dark.

After taking care of the animals, I went to the fields. The 10 acres of tomatoes were bright red, which was very pleasing to the eye. That’s right, today the tomatoes have matured for the first time and can be harvested!

After collecting it today, you can collect it again every 3 days.

I picked a tomato, wiped it, and took a bite. It was delicious!

Then an extra one was given to each dwarf who came to work, and everyone was very happy!

I had already agreed with the dwarf Dimitro, who is in charge of the harvest, that one-third of the tomatoes should be kept in the warehouse. This time, we can harvest about 90 portions of tomatoes, with 10 tomatoes in each portion, of uniform size, and two tomatoes weighing about 2 kilogram.

林夏本次能卖出的有60份*60G=3600G+，仓库里能收30份*10=300个。

Through the harvest of radishes, cucumbers, onions and tomatoes, Lin Xia calculated that the current yield per mu of land is approximately 5 jin*9=45 jin.

Of course, this "mu" was named by Lin Xia for his own convenience. It actually means a piece of land, nine grids.

With the subsequent land upgrades, the yield should increase, because now when harvesting, the occasional 2-star crops received are much higher in quality and size than ordinary 1-star crops.

Two ordinary tomatoes weigh 2 kilogram, but one 1-star tomato weighs 2 kilogram, and the color and taste are better!

Lin Xia picked a few more tomatoes and put them in her backpack, ready to give them to the villagers to taste when she met them!

After picking the honey, apples and grapes from the trees, we started our routine work in the back mountains.

After entering the mountain, I followed the trap route as usual and checked whether there was any prey in the pit. Finally, this time in the second pit, I found a rabbit!

haha~

The rabbit was not afraid, so Lin Xia jumped directly into the pit, knocked the rabbit unconscious first, then tied its two hind legs tightly with strong vines and hung them around his waist.

I took out the flying hook and threw it towards the tree trunk outside the pit. After it was hooked, it flew out of the trap directly. It was worth it for my daily practice. My proficiency was amazing!

After restoring the cover on the trap again, Lin Xia changed to another location. This time, Lin Xia wanted to make a few small traps for pheasants.

Since pheasants can fly, pits are not suitable for them, but traps are very suitable for them. I also learned this from Huo An.

He found a place with overgrown weeds but no bushes, and following Huo An's instructions, he made a clever noose with a thin nylon rope and placed it in the weeds.

Tie the other end of the rope to the surrounding tree branches and wooden stakes, sprinkle some chicken feed around, and you're done.

As long as the chicken's claws step into the rope loop and take a step forward, the noose will tighten and the pheasant will not be able to escape.

Lin Xia set up a few more traps around. This kind of trap was easy and labor-saving, and Lin Xia liked it very much.

If you want to eat chicken and rabbit, go find Huo An in the evening!

After checking the traps, Lin Xia turned around and left the mountain. He didn't have any self-defense weapons on him today, so he couldn't go deep into the mountains. If he encountered large prey, he wouldn't be able to deal with it by himself!

After coming out, he first went to Kappa and gave her a portion of sweet and sour cucumber; then he went to the goddess and gave her a tomato this time. The goddess was very happy!

I originally wanted to take a hot spring bath, but I had no place to put the rabbit on my waist, so forget it!

After going back and having lunch, we started visiting residents along the town. Sabara was taking a rest today; we went to the Giggle House first. Rick and his sister were not at home, only Lilia was there.

"Lilia~Good afternoon, how are you feeling recently?" Lin Xia asked in a friendly manner.

Lilia said gently, "It's fine, but it's hot in the summer, so I don't go out much! Is that a wild rabbit on your waist?"

"Yes, I set a trap on the mountain, and today I got something, I caught a rabbit!"

"That's amazing!" Lilia praised!

"Last time I heard from Dot that your health is not good, but there are several kinds of medicine in the back mountain that are good for your body. I picked these in the mountain today. I'll give them to you!"

"Thank you, Lin Xia~ My husband will bring this back for me too!"

“You’re welcome!”

After saying goodbye to Lilia, Lin Xia decided to make a dinner appointment with Huo An first, as it was not very convenient to have a rabbit hanging around her waist.

"You killed your prey again?" Huo An said regretfully.

"No! It's still alive!" Lin Xia said and shook the rabbit, but the rabbit didn't respond!

Did I slap the rabbit to death?

Huo An couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he walked over, picked up the rabbit, looked at it carefully, and found that the rabbit was indeed alive, so he put it in the cage first.

I guess the force used to hit it was a bit too strong, but it is indeed not dead. Or maybe the rabbit was just pretending to be dead?

"How much do you plan to sell the rabbit for?"

Lin Xia: "I don't plan to sell it?"

Huo An: ... What are you going to do with it if you’re not going to sell it?

"I want to eat. Let's continue the dinner party tonight! I want to eat stir-fried rabbit meat!" Lin Xia said with drooling eyes.

Huo An rolled his eyes at her: "Am I your cook? I just think about eating all day long, and I'm not afraid of getting angry!"

Lin Xia looked at Huo An pitifully: "How long has it been since I last had meat? Can you please be considerate of me?"

Huo An sneered, "So yesterday's meat was eaten by the dog?"

Lin Xia: ……

I forgot, we just had a seafood dinner yesterday!

"Since the rabbit is not dead, just sell it for money! It will be a pity to kill a living rabbit. You can eat a dead rabbit later!" Huo An consoled insincerely.

Although Lin Xia wanted to eat rabbit meat, the chef was not happy about it, so she had to reluctantly sell it for money: "How much do you want to pay?"

Huo An got excited: "You rabbit is half dead, I don't know when you can recover, I'll give you 3000G!"

"No, at least 5000G!"

"You are so heartless! Lilya's Angora rabbit is only 3000G, and I'm giving you the market price!"

"How big is that Angora rabbit? It's just a small ball. My rabbit is so fat, it must be at least four or five pounds!"

"I didn't buy this rabbit for the meat. You are too superficial. Rabbits are sold by the piece, not by the pound. 3000G is definitely a fair price. I won't cheat you!"

"No, I didn't bring it here to sell it. If you keep bargaining, I'll kill it and we can just eat its meat!" As he said that, Lin Xia became restless again!

Huo An knew that this guy hadn't given up yet, so he quickly said, "Okay, okay, I'll give you 5000G. Keep the money, and don't look at the rabbit anymore. It's mine now!"

Lin Xia was forced to put in the money, and after losing control of the rabbit, she also gave up the plan of eating meat today.

Alas, I won’t rely on you until I have all the kitchen utensils and supplies. Now I want to eat a rabbit that I caught myself but I am controlled by others. It’s really depressing!
