Chapter 36 Unlocking the Livestock Module and the Persistent Abdominal Muscles

The temperature outside the Star Territory remains extremely high, and children born after the apocalypse are generally more heat-resistant.

Even so, they still have to wear protective suits every day, which are thick and stuffy, and they often wake up at night because of the heat.

Seeing the longing look on her daughter's face, Tan Yashao's heart melted completely.

She already felt guilty for not being able to provide a good life for her daughter, so how could she refuse now that her daughter had finally made a request?

She is currently level 51, so even if she encounters a large beast tide, she is capable of safely taking Quan Quan away. Where they live is about the same in terms of safety for the mother and daughter.

Or should she bring Quan Quan and move to Star Territory as well?

"Let Mom think about it; it will take time to move here."

"Yay! I knew Mom was the best!" Zhu Quan cheered and hugged his mother's neck with both hands.

"Zhu Quan! Get down here! You've got foam all over my face!"

Lin Nanxing had no idea that her move to upgrade the swimming pool would bring her a new high-level player; she had just woken up at ten o'clock.

Having had a good night's sleep, Lin Nanxing stood by the window of her room, gazing at the crowd of people thronging the room in the sunlight, and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Although she anticipated the water park would be popular, the sheer number of visitors exceeded her expectations.

As a modern person who had just transmigrated, Lin Nanxing was naturally immune to these entertainment facilities and did not understand the popularity of water parks.

But the people here are different. For the past ten years, they have been struggling to survive and have had no entertainment activities. Even simple amusement facilities will attract them in droves.

Realizing that Sister Lan was currently the only employee at the water park, Lin Nanxing quickly tidied himself up and prepared to go out to help out.

She had just opened the door when she bumped into Shu Yi, who was also opening his door.

The two locked eyes, and Lin Nanxing instinctively slammed the door shut behind them. Shu Yi's raised hand froze in mid-air, his expression somewhat puzzled.

Lin Nanxing leaned against the door, and the image of Shu Yi's half-naked body flashed through his mind once again.

It's strange. She didn't actually see Shu Yi taking a bath yesterday, so why can't she get the image out of her mind?

Half a minute later, Lin Nanxing realized the reason.

It must be because the fat on that troublemaker yesterday was so disgusting that her brain activated its automatic defense mechanism, and in order to make her forget that greasy belly, the image of Shu Yi's abs kept appearing in her mind.

It's definitely not because she was driven by lust!

Having calmed down, Lin Nanxing carefully opened the door, half-leaning out to peek out. She found Shu Yi still standing there, and their eyes met again.

Lin Nanxing awkwardly opened the door wide, cleared his throat sheepishly, and said, "Good morning, are you going out?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Nanxing wanted to slap himself. Wasn't that obvious?

Judging from how neatly dressed Shu Yi is when he opens the door, he's not going out, could he be going to her house to sleep?

Under Shu Yi's watchful gaze, Lin Nanxing's thoughts began to wander aimlessly.

Fortunately, Shu Yi didn't intend to laugh at her predicament. He calmly nodded and said, "I've finished all the food in my backpack. I need to go restock."

"Oh, I see. That's perfect. I can tell you that the vending machine has been moved to the fresh food supermarket. You can go there directly without having to go to the swimming pool."

"Yes, I know."

"......"

The two remained silent. Lin Nanxing couldn't stand the silence and, not knowing what to say, finally spoke again: "Today is the first day of the water park's opening. I'm going to help out now. You can come and have some fun at the park when you have time."

Before Shu Yi could respond, Lin Nanxing darted downstairs.

Shu Yi stood there, watching the pretty figure flee in panic, and tilted his head in confusion again. Why did he feel that Nan Xing was acting a little strange today?

When Lin Nanxing arrived at the water park, she found that Lin Qiulan was much busier than she had imagined. She immediately put aside any distracting thoughts and focused on helping to greet the guests.

Lin Nanxing was busy until the water park closed down before she finally had a moment to herself. After returning home and quickly finishing dinner, she collapsed onto the bed, letting her mind wander.

All the shops in Star Territory have been upgraded without raising prices, and the water park still charges 50 game coins per hour. Even so, the water park's revenue exceeded 50,000 today.

The money was indeed plentiful, but the work was truly exhausting, and Lin Nanxing began to consider whether to recruit on a large scale.

Now that Starry Territory has gained a reputation, it receives no fewer than two thousand visitors every day. Sister Lan is managing both the water park and the hotel front desk by herself, and Aunt Li also mentioned a few days ago that she was a bit overwhelmed.

After the livestock module is unlocked, the animals raised will need to be looked after by a dedicated person. Once both planting and livestock are unlocked, the restaurant can be opened, and a dedicated chef and waiters will be needed.

Thinking about it this way, Lin Nanxing felt more and more that recruiting workers was necessary.

Before going to sleep, Lin Nanxing took another look at the movements of the four advanced players. She had seen them at the water park earlier that day.

Seeing that they were still resting in the Star Territory, Lin Nanxing closed his eyes with peace of mind.

The next day, the water park was still packed, but not as crowded as the day before. Lin Nanxing didn't go to help; instead, he stayed in the room, intently watching a corner.

The timer on the incubator started its countdown.

With a soft "beep," the incubator door slowly opened, and a faint "chirping" sound came from the rising steam.

As the fog dissipated, four fluffy, pale yellow spheres crawled out of the eggshells.

Lin Nanxing held her breath, afraid of disturbing these little lives.

The chicks were covered in pale yellow down, and their black bean-sized eyes curiously surveyed the world. They looked exactly like the chicks Lin Nanxing remembered, and had not mutated.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully hatched 100% of the chicks and unlocked the livestock module in the shop.]

Reward: Chicken Coop x1

The livestock module is now activated. You can go to the store to purchase related items, such as cubs, ranches, etc.

Please continue your efforts, host, and let's create a perfect territory together!

Lin Nanxing had already been waiting by the incubator with half an hour left in the countdown. Seeing that she had successfully unlocked the livestock module, she felt relieved.

However, this time the reward is just a chicken coop?

"This is too shabby," Lin Nanxing thought, pursing his lips and expressing his disdain for the system's actions.

The chirping sound interrupted her thoughts.

The four chicks were all lively. After figuring out their surroundings, they couldn't wait to come out of the incubator.

Perhaps because it had just hatched from its egg, it didn't have enough control over its body and walked unsteadily.

Lin Nanxing reached out and touched the head of one of the chicks with her fingertips. The wet touch made the little guy rub against her palm and chirp.

The chicks have all hatched, so naturally we need to find a place to settle them. Birds are all straightforward, and Lin Nanxing doesn't want his room to be filled with the stench of chicken droppings.

She thought for a moment, then put the four chicks into a basin filled with dry grass that she had prepared beforehand. She then picked up the four-leaf clover that was peeking out to observe the new life and put it on her shoulder. "Come on, let's go pick out a good spot for you."

Planting and animal husbandry have always been inseparable; crops can serve as food for animals, and animal manure can serve as fertilizer for crops.

Lin Nanxing chose a location for the four chicks next to the farmland, within the coriander spirit's activity range, so he could help take care of them.

The magical plants seemed very interested in the new member. The clover plants spontaneously formed a fence, and the coriander spirit generously gave up a shady spot.

As soon as Lin Nanxing put down the basin, the "chicken coop" rewarded by the system landed in a white light, and an instruction manual was automatically imprinted in her mind.

Once Lin Nanxing figured out how the chicken coop worked, she realized she had misunderstood the system.

How could a chicken coop produced by the system be a simple chicken coop?

The chicken coop is about two square meters in size and is equipped with an automatic feeder, a temperature control system, a cleaning device, and even a robotic arm specifically for collecting fallen eggs.

The most amazing thing is that there is a special device at the bottom of the chicken coop that can automatically turn the droppings into fertilizer, which will be stored in a box on the right side of the coop on a regular basis and can be taken out at any time.

"That's more like it." Lin Nanxing looked at the deluxe chicken coop and nodded in satisfaction. She had to admit that these four chicks were really lucky; they lived better than she did.

After settling the chicks, Lin Nanxing slowly opened the online store. The livestock section was filled with a dazzling array of products, like little gold nuggets. She could almost picture the various delicacies that would soon grace her dining table.

[Young animals]

Angora rabbit (5000 points/each): The fur can be spun, and the meat can be roasted.

Goat (8000 points/each): Stable milk supply, hides used for armor.

......

[Architecture]

Fully automatic pig shed (20,000 points): equipped with deodorization, constant temperature and feeding functions.

Ecological poultry houses (15,000 units): Three-dimensional farming with a space utilization rate of 300%.

......

[Feed]

Growth-accelerating feed (1000 points/pack): Three days to market weight is not a dream.

Nutritionally Fortified Formula (3000 points/serving): Same cubs, different textures.

......

It's clear that as more and more modules are unlocked, the overall layout of the store is becoming more and more professional.

It's also possible that the system realized its host was a miser, holding nearly a million dollars but being stingy when buying things.

This time, He included sales pitches with all the products, and even listed the additional features of the products.

Animals are not as quiet as plants; they definitely need someone to look after and care for them.

Lin Nanxing ignored the system's inducements, restrained his desire to buy, and in the end only bought three pigs, five chickens, five ducks, a fully automatic pigsty, and a lot of growth feed.

It cost a total of 80,000.

Three piglets were put into the pigpen, and five ducklings went to keep the nine chicks company.

They're all poultry, so a chicken coop can also house ducks, right? Lin Nanxing's thrifty habits are kicking in again.

Lin Nanxing squatted beside the chicken coop, holding a small handful of pale golden feed in his palm.

A large bag of growth feed fell into Lin Nanxing's arms, emitting a sweet but not cloying grain aroma, mixed with a hint of minty coolness.

Lin Nanxing thought of the plant growth accelerator with incredible effects and had high expectations for this feed.

As soon as the feed was scattered into the automatic feeding trough of the chicken coop, more than a dozen small animals immediately flapped their wings and gathered around, vying to peck at the feed that emitted a strange aroma.
