Ranch Story: Start Over

Feng Ling's eyes lit up, of course, because his system suddenly sent out a prompt:

"Lord progress task, complete the town Didi plan, after completion, the lord's progress will increase by one"

Then there were no more prompts. Although there were no huge rewards like in other novels, Feng Ling finally saw the prerequisite tasks for the second-level lord mission. It turned out that only large-scale tasks like this could improve the progress.

Feng Ling thought about it and realized that this task was really troublesome. If he didn't care about it at all, the Didi plan for towns might have nothing to do with him, which was considered a voluntary abandonment. If he used the allocated funds for research, it would feel like he was losing the big picture for the small.

Fortunately, Feng Ling has a relaxed attitude. The purpose of the Didi plan to build towns is to promote population mobility and allow ordinary residents who are reluctant to leave their hometown to have more choices in the absence of magic motorcycles. Feng Ling thought about it and decided to study the street lamp as well, and leave the big deal to others. As long as the ranch is built, the worst that can happen is that he will have to spend money to build dormitories, so that he can recruit stable employees to work.

After adjusting his mentality, Feng Ling said to Dart:

"Master, I listen to you."

Dart didn't expect that his apprentice was really going to obtain the allocated funds to build a ranch according to his own ideas. Although the approach was a bit evil, the allocated funds this time were not much, so it should be okay.

"Master? How much money can I apply for?"

Feng Ling was more concerned about this, and it was not his turn to consider anything else. Seeing Dart and other ranchers gathered around Thomas, Thomas handed each of them a note and a magic crystal card.

Feng Ling waited for a while, and Dart came back like everyone else.

"Feng'er, your master didn't have a good reputation before, so the funds and materials I applied for were not much. Please don't despise me."

"? Dislike? How much? Master."

Feng Ling was a little curious.

"One million in cash, and 100 kilograms of each of the five basic materials: copper ingots, iron ingots, aluminum ingots, rubber, and glass."

"That's a lot, Master? Isn't that enough?"

Feng Ling looked at the material requirements of the composite street lamp drawings. They only weighed a few kilograms and could be automatically processed and manufactured on the corresponding equipment. It was very convenient. After refining 100 kilograms of rough ore from the mine, only 10 kilograms of main ore would be obtained.

"Um, your master has only applied for 5% of the total supplies."

Looking at his master's embarrassed expression, Feng Ling was too embarrassed to say anything to him. It was too difficult, Dart was really too difficult.

"It's okay, Master. Leave it to me."

At this moment, Sabara suddenly called Feng Ling.

"What's wrong, teacher?"

Feng Ling trotted to Sabara's side, and Sabara smiled and said:

"Feng Ling, this is the first time we meet as master and disciple. I originally wanted to give you a random gift, but considering that you are also involved in the future construction of Mineral Town this time, the materials Dart applied for are really unbearable to look at, so I decided to give you another gift."

"? What is it?"

"Alchemical Creation Furnace, how about it? Have you heard of it?"

More than just having heard of it, Feng Ling was directly discouraged by this thing. However, when he heard the old man care about him like this, Feng Ling thought to himself, could it be that his protagonist halo has taken effect?

Sabara continued, "But I haven't used this alchemy furnace for many years, and I don't know how effective it is. Maybe you can repair it and it should still work. It's very suitable for someone like you who is new to alchemy."

After saying that, Sabara handed Feng Ling a storage ring he had made.

"It's a one-time storage ring. There's nothing I can do about it. Storage items are usually unique. When you take it out, the ring will be destroyed. It won't affect the space pendant on your body."

Feng Ling probed his magical consciousness into it and took a look. He scanned it with the detection technique and became excited.

Who would have thought that the alchemy furnace that Teacher Sebala gave to Feng Ling was a little small and a little broken, but as long as Feng Ling spent 5 merit points, plus the supplies that were just distributed today, it would be enough to repair it. And the effect after the repair was no worse than before.

Of course, it is incomparable to the alchemy furnace produced by the system.

As the signature of every alchemist, the alchemical furnace has made all the impossible possible. This alchemical furnace that takes away the heaven's creation and unleashes imagination uses its magical power to make the impossible possible for the alchemists and turn the inspiration in their minds into reality.

The alchemy furnace that Sebala gave to Feng Ling was a defective product that he had discarded many years ago. However, it was very suitable for people like Feng Ling who had just started to learn the profession of alchemist. It was also very safe and had a low risk factor.

It can be said that although Sabala has not yet formally become Feng Ling's apprentice, he has done a very good job.

Feng Ling excitedly paid for the system repairs, only to see that the alchemy furnace, which had been in tatters before, was suddenly covered with a layer of gray gas. The repair process would take eight hours and it would be ready for use tomorrow morning.

Feng Ling looked at the 50,000 merit points that disappeared in an instant, and he only had merit points left. But for the sake of the alchemy furnace, Feng Ling felt that it was all worth it. As long as he had this thing, he could turn the things on the blueprint into reality.

The difference is the amount of materials invested. Feng Ling looked at the alchemy furnace in the storage ring with the countdown. He put it in there first. When the countdown is over, Feng Ling will take it out. At that time, the disposable storage ring carrying the alchemy furnace will be damaged.

Thinking of this result, Feng Ling fell into helplessness again. The water-powered mill, the chicken coop, the home, and now it seemed that he had to add a workshop, all of which cost money.

Looking at the magic crystal card, Feng Ling now has 350 million. He just needs to make suitable street lights and hand them in in the last few days of this quarter. He should first solve the few buildings he just thought of, otherwise it will be very inconvenient.

A chicken coop costing 100 million, a rough-built house costing 100 million, and a small workshop costing 50. These were all built without magic arrays. According to the price Uncle Gotz offered, a magic array for typhoon resistance cost 20. In coastal towns like this, magic arrays for typhoon resistance would be set up in important buildings. No one wanted to lose everything in their house overnight. This would be terrible.

60 was spent, adding up to 310 million, and they hadn't even started spending yet. Feng Ling had already planned their use. Fortunately, the onion seeds had been purchased, and 1000 bags of onion seeds were now lying in Feng Ling's magic backpack. The first wave of onions planted were only a few days old, and with the income from the night snacks at Dart Restaurant, they could barely maintain the ranch's finances.

"Master, is the meeting of residents of Mineral Town about to end?"

Feng Ling looked at Dart walking back to him and asked quickly.
