Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

"But we can't go to the lake mine now. It's in the center of the lake!" Lin Xia was distressed.

"Winter will be over soon. When winter comes, the entire lake will be frozen and we can get through it easily." Saibala comforted.

"Okay, Sebala, I now have a full set of Mithril farming tools, which will be enough for now. Can we start the processing machine?"

"Yes, your chicken and rabbit hut and animal hut have been expanded. There is enough space, so you can start. Which processing machine do you plan to build first?"

"Hmm~" Lin Xia thought for a while, "Let's make the wool processing machine first!"

There are not many eggs and milk now, and both are indispensable as cooking ingredients, so there is no rush to process them into mayonnaise, cheese or butter.

On the contrary, the price of the wool produced by rabbits and sheep when shipped directly is not as high as the price of wool yarn when processed, and making a product that can solve both problems has the highest cost-effectiveness.

"Sure. The yarn processing machine requires 2G, plus five diamonds. Have you brought them?"

"Brought it!"

"Okay, it will be ready in 5 days. Do you want to put it in the chicken and rabbit hut or the animal hut?"

"Animal House!"

"Okay then. We'll send it directly to the animal house for you."

After leaving the blacksmith shop, Lin Xia turned around and went to the chicken farm opposite. Yesterday, Kokoda 5 (8 stars maximum) had grown up, and Lin Xia started hatching new eggs again.

兔宝宝2（6星上限）也长大了，林夏立刻给它人工配种，现在林夏一共有下蛋鸡5+1（孵化中）只，兔子2+1（怀孕中）只。

After the expansion, there are 7 breeding spaces left in the chicken and rabbit shed. Lin Xia is going to buy some black chickens. Black chicken stew is very nutritious and delicious.

"Hi~Rick! I'm here to buy chickens!" As soon as Lin Xia entered the door, she saw Rick taking care of chickens and rabbits in the chicken coop.

"Hi~Lin Xia!" Rick responded happily, "What kind of chickens do you want to buy this time? How are the previous chickens?"

"It's very good. I already have 5 adult chickens. Another one started hatching yesterday. In two days, I will be able to add another one." Lin Xia said with a smile.

"It seems that you have done a good job in raising the chickens! How is the intimacy between the chicks?" Rick is worthy of being the little prince of the chicken farm. He not only sells the chickens, but also pays attention to the after-sales breeding conditions.

"The first chicken I raised already has a 5-star favorability. The chicks that hatched were 3 stars when they were born, and the first two that hatched have reached 2 stars. These three chickens are now laying M-shaped eggs. The last two adult chickens, because they were hatched not long ago, are now laying S-shaped eggs."

"Not bad, not bad." Rick said with great satisfaction, "The first chickens we bought have reached their maximum intimacy level. They can only lay M-shaped eggs at best. You know that, right?"

"I know that, but I still have some space in my chicken and rabbit shed, so I'll keep them for now to store eggs. Don't worry, I'll deal with it when there's not enough space. I came here today to buy black chickens!"

"You want to buy black chickens?" Rick said in surprise, "Great! No one else has come to buy except you! Come and take a look, which one do you want?"

As he spoke, he pulled Lin Xia towards the black chicken coop. After they went there, seeing that there were not many black chickens in the coop, at least far fewer than ordinary laying hens, Lin Xia really felt a little sympathy for them.

You know, the nutritional value of black chicken is very high, but people here don’t realize it.

Moreover, the black chicken is really good-looking, with snow-white feathers, which is really beautiful!

"How many do you want to buy? Or do you plan to buy one and hatch it yourself?" Rick asked, "But I have to tell you that the egg-laying rate of black chickens is relatively low. Basically, they only lay one egg every three days, and the incubation time is also relatively long. It takes five days to hatch a chick!"

"I'll go back and hatch the chicken myself. I'm not in a hurry to eat it for now, haha~"

"Okay, I'll pick one for you! The breeding methods are the same."

"Don't be impatient, Rick!" Lin Xia immediately called out to Rick who was about to catch the chicken.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Rick asked puzzledly.

"I want to raise ducks and geese. Do you have any for sale?"

"No!" Rick said decisively, "This year we only added Angora rabbits and black chickens. To be honest, only Angora rabbits are selling well, and the sales of black chickens are not very good. I regret it a little bit! I dare not try the ducks and geese you mentioned."

Lin Xia frowned and said, "Then do you know where to buy ducks and geese? Is it difficult to raise them?"

"I know this." Rick said confidently, "There are ducks and geese in the Bluebell Village of the Twin Villages. The way to raise them is not difficult. You just need to build a separate waterfowl hut near the water. In addition to eating corn feed, ducks also eat small fish and shrimps, and geese also eat grass. They have to go into the water every day, so it's not difficult to raise them."

"Is that so? Can't they be raised together with chickens and rabbits?"

"No." He said decisively, "Chickens are land birds, while ducks and geese are water birds. The two cannot be kept together."

"Then when I get the breeding hut ready, can you help me buy ducks and geese? I want to raise them!"

"Of course, just tell me in advance and I'll order it for you!"

"Thank you, thank you!" Lin Xia was happy. It seemed that Gotz's next job was confirmed.

I went into the house and bought a black chicken with Lilia for 1500G, and 10 Angora rabbit artificial breeding devices, spending 2G.

Since the chicken and rabbit house cannot raise ducks and geese, and there won’t be that many black chickens in the short term, it’s better to raise a few rabbits and make some wool! Don’t waste space resources!

Black Chicken Rick would still help deliver the chickens and rabbits directly to the chicken and rabbit coop. Lin Xia took the purchased breeding device and continued to move forward to the cattle and sheep ranch next door to find Muchi.

As a result, he was turned away, and then he remembered that today was Monday and Muchi was out.

Forget it, I’ll come back to buy cattle and sheep from the old man tomorrow.

After returning home, I fed the newly bought black chicken, and then went to see the lamb Bae Bae 2 ​​(6-star limit) that was born yesterday and the pregnant cow Moo Moo 1.

That’s right, after Yang Meemie gave birth successfully, Lin Xia immediately bred Niu Moomiao, and now Niu Moomiao is pregnant!

Originally, after the expansion of the animal house, there were already two pregnancy breeding positions, but Lin Xia still waited until the sheep gave birth before letting the cow Moo Moo get pregnant.

The main reason is that I’m a little worried that I have no experience and I’m afraid I won’t be able to take care of two pregnant mothers at the same time.

Now that we have experience, we can breed them at the same time. Next time, we will let Yangmieme 2 raise the next generation.

After seeing the new pregnant mother and the little sheep, Lin Xia came out to see the pineapple harvest.

This time, we can harvest a total of 35 pineapples from the 315 acres of pineapples. We will keep one-fifth for ourselves and ship the rest. We can sell them for at least 25.2g.

Pineapples can be harvested once more this season, and by then Lin Xia's monetary assets will be close to 100 million. Haha~ Millionaires are just around the corner!
