Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

On the evening of the 24th of summer, the annual fireworks display is held on the beach of Mineral Town. If you have a crush on someone, you can make an appointment to watch it together on the beach.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Lin Xia, the single guy, but there are more than just Lin Xia in Mineral Town!

So the fireworks display was still very lively. Except for Dortmund, a medical enthusiast who never participated in these activities, most of the young people in the town came.

The beach was quite lively after 6pm, and as a qualified businessman, Huo An could not miss this opportunity, considering that the event was right in front of Zach's house. So he set up his stall on the beach again, selling all kinds of interesting small commodities.

Because there were going to be fireworks in a while, all the lights on the beach were off. Except for the light coming through the windows of Hai's house and Zack's house, it was completely dark outside.

So all kinds of small lanterns, some exquisite and some interesting, were hung on Huo An’s stall.

There are various floral shapes, various animal shapes, and particularly gorgeous revolving lanterns, which attracted many people to buy them.

Huo An later boasted to Lin Xia: "Since the last rain gear exhibition, I found that people still like to buy things at outdoor stalls. They are more likely to buy things. When they see others buying, they can't help themselves. I didn't think of this before. I stayed in Zach's house all day, and I might not be able to make any sales in ten days or half a month. Now, when I set up a stall, I can make up for half a year's work. It's still easier to make money by setting up a stall!"

Lin Xia thought to herself: That’s right, there is no one who doesn’t like to join in the fun!

Lin Xia also bought a uniquely shaped lotus lantern. The lighting effect is not that great, but it is very artistic!

Children prefer animal shapes, among which rabbit lamps and rooster lamps are the most popular. The rabbit lamps are soft and cute, and the rooster lamps have bright feathers, which are particularly shiny. Hehe - those bright feathers were sold by Lin Xia to Huo An. The price of a few feathers is equivalent to the price of several rabbits.

Handicrafts can still be sold at a high price. Food has never been a highly profitable commodity, except when there is a national crisis.

As for Huo An's most magnificent three-layered revolving lantern, it was bought by the wealthy mayor. He said he bought it on behalf of the Mineral Town and would bring it to Rose Square and hang it up during major festivals every year for everyone to appreciate.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the fireworks were officially set off on the other side of the sea. Looking at the dark sky lit up by the dazzling fireworks, my mood became extremely bright and excited.

The day after watching the fireworks was the mayor's birthday. As a newcomer who had been here for less than half a year, the mayor's birthday had to be taken seriously, so Lin Xia prepared a gift for the mayor early - wild wine, which the mayor was said to like.

I just don't know how credible this rumor is. Anyway, Lin Xia followed Dick's advice and bought 10 bottles of wine from him. After returning, he added wild grapes picked from the mountains and purple herbs that only grow on the seaside in summer. He brewed the wild wine again, packaged it in the grocery store, and gave it to the mayor.

The mayor was very surprised when he received the birthday gift, but he didn't know whether he was surprised by the wild wine or just by the birthday gift.

After delivering the gifts, Lin Xia went to inspect her traps again. The pheasant feathers were still very beautiful. Although pheasant meat was not valuable, if she came across good-looking feathers, she would make a lot of money!

In fact, to date, the most beautiful pheasant feathers Lin Xia has ever seen are the ones on the pheasant's tail when she first saw it. Unfortunately, the pheasant has experienced "hair loss" twice, so now, she doesn't know whether the hair on its tail has grown out.

Tsk tsk~

After passing two pits in succession and not finding any prey, Lin Xia continued to walk towards where he had placed the noose.

I carried the bow and arrow with me today, and now my clothes are also very nice, so I can walk further.

When they came to a place not far from the place where the chicken and snake battle happened last time, there was finally movement. Lin Xia's heart moved. It seemed that something was happening!

I immediately walked forward carefully, pushed aside the leaves and took a look, and was delighted~

You really can't talk about people casually during the day, even chickens. Look, I was just thinking about Brother Chicken, and now I saw him, right?

The chicken was pacing anxiously around the place where Lin Xia had set up the noose. The feathers on its body had grown a lot, but the remaining tail feather was still standing alone, which made Lin Xia, who had a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, feel particularly annoyed.

But this is not the point at the moment. The point is that there is Lin Xia's noose wrapped around Brother Ji's feet.

Hehe ~

"Hey~ Brother Chicken, are you taking a walk here?"

When Brother Chicken saw Lin Xia coming, he became less annoyed, but he still said "Oh" as a greeting.

It seems that Brother Chicken is very skilled and brave, and he is not afraid at all.

It's been lassoed, but it's still so proud. Lin Xia was just about to show off when she suddenly realized that although there was a noose on the chicken's feet, the branch that tied the noose had broken, and the rooster was being dragged towards her by the noose.

Well, the chicken is worthy of being a chicken. The small noose can’t trap it. It seems that it is waiting for me to come and untie it.

Yes, its beak is extremely sharp, so pecking off branches is a piece of cake. However, it is still a bit difficult for it to peck off the thin rope that is tightly tied around its ankles. It is better for it to directly ask itself, the person who tied the bell, to untie it. Anyway, it is not worried that Lin Xia will do anything bad to it.

Lin Xia obediently untied the ropes on the rooster's feet as it approached, and no longer dared to show off.

After being untied, the rooster did not leave immediately. Instead, it watched Lin Xia set the noose again, then it cooed at Lin Xia, turned around and walked into the woods. After walking a few steps, it stopped and looked back at Lin Xia.

Hmm? What do you mean? Do you want me to follow you?

Yes, if there was nothing happening to him, the rooster would not have run to his trap and fallen into it.

So should I go? Or should I go?

There won't be any danger, right?

Don’t be afraid. Seeing this chicken in such a leisurely state, it doesn’t seem to be in any danger. Maybe something good is coming to it!

I checked my equipment again. I had a bow and arrow, and 200 arrows in the quiver ready to go at any time.

10 long bamboos and 50 short bamboos are also in the space. They are transferred from the storage box into the space and can be used at any time.

The hanging net and flying hook were also put away, as well as the camping tent (oh, it was still the same toy tent. It seems I have to ask Huo An to buy a new one later, as this tent is as good as nothing). I also brought medicine for external injuries, and physical strength and fatigue potions.

The space also has food such as bread, rice balls, homemade dishes, juice, milk, fruits, etc.

It seems like I have everything I need, but when there are special circumstances - bah ~ there are no special circumstances.

Let’s go!
