Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

Lin Xia ran all the way back home, had lunch first, and then came to the animal house to give the new animals some loving caress (brush their fur).

Let’s first take stock of the current situation of the animals in the animal house!

羊咩咩1（5星上限）——4星亲密度，已剪毛（每7天能剪一次M型羊毛，3公斤，可加工毛线3公斤）；

Sheep 2 (6 stars max) - 3 stars intimacy, growing, can be sheared or artificially inseminated after 11 days;

羊驼1（5星上限）——0星亲密度，已剪毛（每7天能剪一次S型羊毛，10公斤，可加工毛线10公斤）；

Cow Moo 1 (max 5 stars) - 4 stars of intimacy, pregnant, giving birth in 18 days;

Coffee Cow 1 (5 stars max) - 0 star intimacy, medium-sized cow, matures after 5 days, can produce S-type coffee milk (10L/time);

Strawberry Cow 1 (5 stars max) - 0 star intimacy, medium-sized cow, matures after 5 days, can produce S-type strawberry milk (10L/time);

Fruit Cow 1 (5-star limit) - 0-star intimacy, medium-sized cow, matures after 5 days, can produce S-type fruit milk (10L/time);

Cattle 1 (up to 5 stars) - 0 star intimacy, young cattle, mature in 30 days, can be bred or slaughtered;

Charolais 1 (up to 5 stars) - 0 star intimacy, young cattle, mature in 30 days, can be bred or slaughtered;

Tibetan Sheep 1 (up to 5 stars) - 0 star intimacy, young sheep, matures in 20 days, can be bred or slaughtered;

Horizontal goat 1 (maximum 5 stars) - 0 stars of intimacy, a young goat, which will become an adult after 20 days and can be bred or slaughtered.

The animal house has a total of 16 feeding pens + 2 special feeding pens for pregnancy. A maximum of 16 animals can be raised at the same time, and 2 animals can be pregnant at the same time.

Now 11+1 slots are occupied, and there are 4 slots left. I will use them for beef and mutton. I will expand if there are not enough in the future.

Lin Xia had stored most of the milk that Cow Moo Moo produced before she became pregnant in the refrigerator, including 10 barrels of S-type milk, 10L each, and 2 barrels of M-type milk, 20L each.

The sheep got pregnant as soon as it was born, and its wool was sheared for the first time after it gave birth. Lin Xia did not sell it directly, but kept it for later processing into yarn after the wool processing machine arrived!

Then we come to the chicken and rabbit hut. The chicken and rabbit situation is as follows:

Gagada 1 (max 5 stars) - 5-star intimacy, lays M-shaped eggs every day, 60g/egg;

Cluck 2 & 3 (6-star limit) - 6-star intimacy, lays M-shaped eggs every day;

Cluck 4 (7 stars max) - 6 stars intimacy, lays M-shaped eggs every day;

Cluck 5 (8 stars max) - 5 stars intimacy, lays M-shaped eggs every day;

Gagada 6 (max 9 stars) - Hatching, will hatch tomorrow.

兔宝宝1（5星上限）——4星亲密度，每5天可以剪一次M型兔毛，0.9斤；

兔宝宝2（6星上限）——3星亲密度，每5天可以剪一次S型兔毛，0.8斤。

乌鸡1（5星上限）——0星亲密度，2-3天可以生一个S型鸡蛋，40g/个。

The chicken and rabbit house has a total of 16 feed troughs, 2 incubators, and 2 special feed troughs for pregnant rabbits, and can raise up to 16 chickens and rabbits at the same time.

Now 8+1 feed troughs are occupied, with 7 spaces left.

Lin Xia originally didn't plan to raise more rabbits, because the hair sheared from rabbits was a bit less than that from sheep and alpacas. But after comparing the two types of hair, Lin Xia found that although rabbit hair is less, the feel is different, especially smooth and beautiful.

And the most important thing is, Huo An said that Angora rabbit is also edible and tastes good!

So, Lin Xia decided to raise a few more rabbits, and no one could stop her.

So, Bunny Baby 2 successfully conceived today!

I didn’t see any black chickens laying eggs today, but it should be about time tomorrow, so I’ll hatch the eggs.

Now there are 5 chickens laying eggs every day, and the number of eggs in Lin Xia's refrigerator is increasing rapidly. There are already 125 S-shaped eggs and 23 M-shaped eggs in the refrigerator.

Since changing to a new watch storage space, Lin Xia no longer needs to empty her backpack every day. She can store the things she gains every day in the space first, and then transfer them to the refrigerator when she has stored 99 items.

So the things in the watch space are quite rich, with basically all the commonly used items. Sometimes I think, if she is suddenly thrown into a strange place, as long as the watch is there, she can live a very comfortable life!

At this moment, Lin Xia didn't know that her idea would really come true one day.

Lin Xia was very satisfied looking at the many animals she raised. Fortunately, in this magical world, the time in the house remained unchanged, so taking care of the animals only took a little effort. If it took time, she would have to feed and brush all the animals by herself, and it would probably be dark before she could finish the process.

After caressing the little animals, Lin Xia turned around and went to the back mountain. She continued to chop wood and smash stones, and she also had to pick grapes from the mountain. After the summer, the mountain grapes would be gone.

Lin Xia can now be said to be not afraid of the summer heat, because whenever she goes out, she wears the high-tech clothes given by Huo An. Of course, she must wear ordinary clothes outside, otherwise it will be too scary.

However, when going to the back mountain, Lin Xia just wore it directly, because after all, there were many branches in the back mountain, and no matter how careful she was, ordinary clothes would inevitably be torn.

Anyway, there are very few people in the back mountain, and my clothes have the function of changing color, so if someone comes, I can just turn invisible, hehe.

(Huo An: It's like you're running naked. These are proper clothes, why are you hiding them? Hei tui!)

After happily strolling up the mountain, they brought back some wood and stone, dozens of bunches of grapes, and dozens of medicinal herbs.

I caught a pheasant and two rabbits in the trap. I killed them all and put them in the space. I went home to drain their blood and stew them into meat.

I have stored a lot of chicken blood recently. It would be great if I had tofu. I can stew chicken blood, mushrooms and tofu, and add some peppercorns and chili oil. It will be so delicious!

Unfortunately, there is no tofu!

It’s okay, just save it first. You can grow your own beans later and you will have tofu and soy milk.

When I got home, I boiled water, killed the chicken, plucked its feathers, skinned the rabbit, removed the internal organs, cleaned and prepared the meat, and stored it in the refrigerator.

There is some leftover from what I made before. After I finish eating, I will go to Huo An to get some ingredients, or I can ask him to make it together. I can make more and divide it into portions and put them in the backpack so that I can take them whenever I want to eat.

I won’t cook meat for the time being, but I still have to make cold dishes. In the hot summer, it’s okay to eat strong-flavored food occasionally, but eating it every day will easily cause you to get a sore throat. Cold dishes are more refreshing and appetizing.

So Lin Xia's radishes, cucumbers, and peanuts now have a variety of rich seasonings. Lin Xia also made her own chili oil and mixed it into the cold dishes. It was so delicious!
