"It's the taste. It doesn't taste like kelp. Instead, it tastes a bit like fish fillets, and very fresh and tender fish fillets, as if the fish was just alive!" You Guoguo gestured and said, "Could it really be kelp?"

You Ying was puzzled and picked up a piece of kelp. After taking a look, he found that the kelp was quite thick after being cooked, not as thin as ordinary seabed kelp.

When I put it in my mouth, it actually tasted like fish!

Kelp is a common seafood. It's generally tough, requiring a bit of force to bite. But while it's not soft, it opens up like fish when you bite it, soaking up the broth. With every chew, juices flow out, creating a fresh, tender, and grilled fish-like flavor. Paired with potato chips, it's a delicious combination of salty and fresh, a truly unique treat.

You Ying took a bite of the kelp and took a look in front of him. Sure enough, the kelp was actually like fish meat, with layers of it and a beautiful texture.

"It's a bit like puffer fish..." You Guoguo thought as she ate, "But it definitely tastes like kelp."

Indeed, although this kelp tastes very fresh and tender, its appearance and color are still those of kelp.

What's more, the kelp can move, which is really magical and weird... You Ying thought, but after tasting its delicious taste, he had no resistance to the moving kelp.

"How can this kelp still move?"

On the other side, the Liu family also started to eat lunch, and Uncle San sighed while eating.

"You are just ignorant. The world is so big, there must be everything." Liu Yibiao said with great experience while drinking soup.

"In some literary works I've read before, there were often people whose feet were entangled by seaweed and unable to swim out. Kelp is also a seaweed and can move, so... there should be no problem, right?" Liu Lei said uncertainly.

Liu Sen looked at him speechlessly. This was very problematic.

"No problem, and this living kelp is really delicious, isn't it?" Liu Ben was the most carefree eater. What was there to be afraid of? What good would it do if the system poisoned him? He was always at odds with the system, but wouldn't it be nice to have him as cheap labor to order more dishes for the system?

"Indeed, this vegetarian dish can taste like meat, haha~" Liu Rui also drank two bowls, which was rare. Apart from anything else, the kelp was really fresh and delicious.

At first, they were intimidated by the kelp moving around in the pool, but after trying it once, they were captivated by its deliciousness. As they got used to it and saw it, they calmed down. Sometimes, Liu Rui, the quietest of the family, would reach in and stir the kelp to make sure it was still fresh, and play with it a bit, which was quite entertaining.

And this kelp, like everything else Liu Ben brought out, has a very good nourishing effect... I really don't know which advanced research institute his mysterious friend works in.

More than ten days later, good news came from the decoration team that the store had been fully decorated!

Liu Ben happily went to the store, inspected it, and felt that the renovation team had perfectly met his requirements, so he readily paid the full price. After seeing the renovation team off, he walked around the store a few times to see if there was anything else he needed to prepare.

The store now has quite a few shelves and refrigerators that will start generating cold air once electricity is connected. There are also ordinary low-top cabinets with fans on top to continuously ventilate and dry the items.

Not bad, not bad. Liu Ben was very satisfied.

After a few more days of ventilation, the store can be opened. He didn't make many changes to the decoration of his store, and did not install any new wood boards or paints containing formaldehyde. There was only the glue used to set up some decorations, which is almost dry now.

This kind of good news must be notified to all family members and friends. Family members refer to everyone in the Liu family. Everyone eats at the same table and tells them after the meal so that the whole family can know.

You Ying was his only friend, so Liu Ben opened You Ying’s chat box.

Liu Ben: "You Ying, my store will open tomorrow! [Picture][Picture][Picture]"

Following are the photos I just took of the store entrance, sign, and the general environment inside the store.

You Ying: "Address?"

Liu Ben: “[Share Location]”

You Ying: “OK”

Liu Ben felt relieved knowing that You Ying would come to support the business. This way, he wouldn't be worried about the store being completely deserted on the first day of opening.

Two days later, Liu Ben took the practical test for the tractor. The certificate for the harvester had been issued, and he would get the certificate for the tractor just by waiting. In another day, the agricultural product store would open.

From this perspective, he has solved a lot of problems.

Although they are not big difficulties or troubles, these little things that have been on my mind have been resolved, and I seem to feel a lot more relaxed.

Although Liu Ben is more cunning than other half-bull people, he is still a pure young man overall. When he is in a bad mood, he wants to farm. When he shares what he grows with others and gets praise, his mood will become better; and when he is in a good mood, he wants to farm even more.

So today, as soon as Liu Ben came back and finished his meal, he entered the space and started his farming career.

Although time was accelerated in the system's fields, even if ordinary people had enough time, they didn't have enough energy to cultivate much. Liu Ben was different. He was a strong orc, a half-bull orc who excelled at farming. Farming was a form of entertainment for him, and even if he was too busy to stop, he was content.

"System, how much trash-beating value do I have left?" Liu Ben asked while turning the ground.

While farming is fun, it would be even more enjoyable if there were a wide variety of agricultural products to choose from.

Although the Wushuang Rice Field and the Horseshoe Water Shield Pond can only produce three kinds of agricultural products: Wushuang rice, water shield, and kelp, it is still not much compared to opening a store. If such a large store only displays these three kinds of goods, even though they are all good things not available elsewhere, it still looks not good enough.

[The host still has 198 Trash Abuse Points, meow! I beat up those two scumbags a few days ago, and was rewarded with 100 Trash Abuse Points. I also got the new achievement [Vengeance], which was rewarded with 66 Trash Abuse Points.]

"It's true that I don't get as much as before. What about the things that can be exchanged?"

[There is only the Supreme Universe Bai Yuluo, but Bai Yuluo now requires 600 Trash Abuse Values, meow! ]

"The price has increased... Oh, I see." Liu Ben remembered that the system had said before that it would increase the value of the trash exchange for items in response to changes in the host's physique like his.

Even so, the host is only 402 away! And the accumulated scumbag value is already 998! I'll be able to unlock the next item soon!

"Hmm..." Liu Ben thought for a moment, "I'll beat them up again later. How about that? I didn't get caught beating them up when I came back from the city, right?"

[No, the host is really amazing. He even managed to evade surveillance, meow!]

"Fortunately, it's an environment like that, it's easier to operate. If it were on a crowded street during the day, it would be difficult." Liu Ben muttered.

Let’s not do that for a few days. Don’t push people too hard. Wait until they relax. Then come once in a while. It makes me feel good just thinking about it.

After planting several waves of rice in the fields, it was time to collect water shield. Liu Ben transformed into a cow, adjusted his body shape to a suitable size, and prepared to collect.

Recently, he has been trying to adjust his height and body proportions when transforming into a human form, just like the beast demon, choosing a suitable body shape between an ordinary person and an orc, and then trying to see if he can transform individually so that certain parts are of an orc and certain parts are of an ordinary person.

Beast monsters can be adjusted at will. Some beast monsters like to retain some beast-like features after turning into ordinary human forms, such as beast ears, beast tails, beast heads, etc., to make themselves look like an orc.

However, those beast monsters are generally not very big, and they look quite cute to the orcs.

Well, it is precisely because of this that the relationship between the beast demons and the orcs is much better now, and not as tense as it was at the beginning.

Liu Ben now wants to develop the ability to change at will not because he has any preference for becoming a man with beast ears, but simply because he thinks that human fingers are more flexible and orcs have stronger bodies. He hopes to combine the two to be able to plant better.

Liu Ben stood in the pond, picking water shield while exercising. The repetitive action made the exercise more interesting.

I saw his hands changing from big to small, from thick to thin, which was quite fun.

Liu Ben didn't know how the beast demon practiced that ability, but his own training method did have some effect. At least now his hands could become very flexible.

Once the hands are healed, I'll move on to the legs. Because the legs of the half-bull orcs are hoof-shaped, if they can have wider feet in the orc state, then the feeling of stepping on the mud underneath will be much more sensitive.

Once his limbs were healed, it would be his turn to improve his body shape. If he could change his body shape at any time when he was out in public, that would be very convenient, such as when he was going to attack that family...

Imagine that the surveillance camera showed him beating someone, but the person was a burly man. That would make him impossible to connect with Liu Ben, right?

Liu Ben raised the corner of his mouth. Although he was thinking about his own things, his hands did not stop moving. He continued to practice transformations while collecting water shield leaves.

Of course, he could only pick a little bit of water shield. He wanted the pond to be full of water shield. It was enough to practice his transformation ability. He still had to plant Wushuang rice in the next period of time.

Liu Ben's care for the water shield is not meaningless. Under the water, where you can't see it, the rhizomes of the water shield are constantly and rapidly growing and spreading outwards, and may soon cover the entire pond.

After planting several rounds of fields, in the afternoon, Liu Ben received a WeChat message from You Ying.

You Ying: "Your store opens tomorrow, right?"

Liu Ben: "Yes, have you finished your rice again?"

Liu Ben: "It will be sold at a very high price. I don't know if anyone will buy it."

You Ying: "...I'm really not a glutton. How much is rice?"

Liu Ben: "I understand, I understand. I'm going to sell the rice for 100 yuan per pound."

You Ying: "Not expensive."

Liu Ben: "Then I feel relieved!"

You Ying really thinks it is not expensive. Anyone who eats this Wushuang rice knows the effect. Eating a bowl of Wushuang rice is more effective than eating a bowl of supplements. The cost of a bowl of Wushuang rice is less than 20 yuan, while expensive supplements cost more than 600 or 700 yuan per serving. Rice is the best value for money.

You Ying: "So when will the water shield and... kelp go on sale?"

Liu Ben: "It depends on the situation. The production is not high at the moment. If you like it, I can send you some more often."

You Ying: "That's not good."

Liu Ben: "We're close friends, you can also come to our store to show your support!"

You Ying: "Okay then... That dish is indeed very good. Thank you in advance."

There is actually a reason why You Yinghui praised it so much. It all started with the two full boxes of water shield and kelp in his refrigerator, which were now empty.

The author has something to say:

Fish-flavored kelp~

Thank you to the little angel who irrigated the nutrient solution for me~

Aegleseeker irrigated 45 bottles of beggar's chicken (Ｕ˙ω˙) I haven't seen you for a long time!
