The next day, Yan Xi traded the only valuable bundles of firewood in the house for a bag of rice with Grandpa Kong, who had a good relationship with the original owner's grandmother. However, he still needed seeds for farming.
Yan Xi had no choice but to pick up an axe and go to the nearby mountain to chop wood.
The neighbors were a little bit unbelievable when they found that the famous lazy and fat man in their village had started to work hard.
Yan Xi didn't care what they thought and went up the mountain with full confidence.
But it was easy for him to think but very difficult to act.
His body was too heavy and he had to gasp for air after walking a few steps. Along the way, he fell several times, and the last time he rolled down the mountain.
If it weren't for the fact that he was fat and the flesh on his body acted as a buffer, I'm afraid we would have had to rewind and start over.
At the foot of the mountain is a valley full of spring, with a small river in the center of the valley.
Because of Yan Xi's heavy blow, the wild rabbits and pheasants in the valley were frightened and fled in all directions.
Yan Xi struggled to get up. Seeing the wild rabbits and pheasants, his mouth watered. "These must be delicious if roasted."
"Wait a minute! I think I forgot something important?"
System 5555: "What's going on? Why are you so surprised?"
Yan Xi's eyes suddenly lit up. "In my previous life, I was a martial artist. Riding and shooting were no problem for me. So why would I need to chop wood? I can just use arrows to hunt rabbits and pheasants and sell them. Isn't that delicious? I can eat the extra ones myself."
"..." System 5555 was speechless: "So why did you just remember that you have the archery skill now?"
Yan Xi touched his head and smiled awkwardly: "Well, I didn't need it in the last world, so I forgot about it."
System 5555: “…” I give up.
Yan Xi got to work right away and made bows and arrows using materials on the spot. He used the bark of the hemp tree as bowstrings, bent branches to make bows, and sharpened them to make arrows.
After the bow and arrow were made, Yan Xi aimed at the hare and shot. However, he had not used this skill for a long time and was a little rusty. He did not hit the target the first time. Yan Xi learned his lesson and practiced several times in the system 5555 space before shooting again.
This time, he hit the target with one shot. Yan Xi was ecstatic and continued to aim and shoot. After half a day, he had a good harvest. He also found several fat fish in the small river in the valley.
He sharpened a branch, took aim, and speared several fish.
Yan Xi strung them together, tied them on both sides of a tree stick, and carried them to the market in the small town to sell them.
When we arrived, we happened to meet women who were out buying groceries to cook dinner.
The huge Yan Xi appeared carrying so much wild game, which attracted a lot of attention. They all came up to him and asked the price.
Yan Xi offered a very low price. When the people who were buying vegetables heard it, their eyes lit up and they rushed in. Soon the vegetables were sold out.
Those who didn’t get a spot kept asking him if he would come tomorrow. Yan Xi smiled and said he would come when he had time.
He also has to buy seeds to farm, so he doesn't have so much time to hunt and sell.
The round trip was so far and tiring that he really didn't want to move.
Moreover, he hunted so much game and sold it at such a low price. If he came here every day, it would definitely arouse jealousy.
He doesn't want to cause trouble.
After Yan Xi bought some crop seeds and a few bags of rice and flour, he hired two ox carts to go home.
Yes, that’s right, there were two ox carts, one for pulling myself and the other for transporting rice and flour.
Because he was too heavy, the ox pulling him was exhausted. The owner of the ox cart was unhappy and insisted on raising the price.
Yan Xi gave money with tears in her eyes,
The lazy fat man suddenly brought back so many things from the town. Seeing him, his fellow villagers were very confused and were wondering what opportunity he had got.
Some people even came to ask about it out of curiosity, but Yan Xi just smiled and said, "I was chopping wood when I accidentally fell into the valley and crushed a group of rabbits and pheasants. Then I took them to the market and sold them for money."
When the visitor heard this, he was stunned and speechless.
This, this...it turns out that being fat has this effect?
I admire you.
This matter spread like wildfire, and within one night, everyone in the village knew that the fat man Mu Yanxi went up the mountain to chop firewood and rolled down the valley. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as he crushed many wild animals to death, which were exchanged for a lot of money at the market.
If you put more pressure on this, won't you become rich?
Yan Xi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry about this.
No way, these people took it seriously.
After solving the problems of food and seeds, Yan Xi is ready to find the male lead.
He must determine the strategy standards within five days. It is already the second night, and he only has three days left.
But the question is, where is the male lead?
The male protagonist's whereabouts are unknown, where should he go to find someone?
"Brother Tong, please locate the male lead for me."
System 5555 was already numb when it heard the word "male protagonist". Tsk... this guy wants to take advantage of the male protagonist again.
"Cemetery in the west of the village, let's find out more."
"What the hell? A grave, a cemetery?" Yan Xi felt a chill down his spine.
System 5555: "That's right. There are graves everywhere, at least twenty of them. The original owner's grandmother is also buried there. The male protagonist sometimes sleeps there because people come to pay their respects to their relatives from time to time, and he would steal the offerings."
So miserable...
Yan Xi sympathized for five seconds and touched his chin. The next morning, he went hunting a wild rabbit again and made a basket of buns stuffed with rabbit meat. He ate some himself and put the rest into a food box. He then took the incense paper left over from last month's funeral and went to the cemetery west of the village.
