At the moment the system voice fell, Xu Jianguo, who was in the space, felt something was wrong. At first, the ground under his feet began to tremble slightly, followed by violent shaking, followed by a huge roar.
Xu Jianguo lost his balance and fell onto the steps. Xiao Hei also stumbled over from a distance, shivering and nestling beside his legs with his tail between his legs.
About a minute later, the shaking and roaring sounds disappeared, and the system's voice sounded in Xu Jianguo's mind.
[Ding, storage space upgrade completed.]
Looking at Xiao Hei who was still in vibration mode beside him, Xu Jianguo touched its head helplessly. After a lot of comfort, Xiao Hei's emotions finally stabilized.
"System, what happened?"
[Ding, host, don't panic. This is just a normal phenomenon when the storage space is upgraded.]
“Why wasn’t it like this before?”
[Ding, nonsense! You didn't come in during the previous upgrade!] "I...Okay, you're right! So what are the new features after this upgrade?"
[Ding, storage space increased by 1000 square meters; maximum time flow rate increased to 120 times; space portal opened; item collection range increased to 4 square meters.]
"What is a space portal?"
[Ding, the space portal is located at the back door of the main hall. The host can select any location on Earth as the destination through thought. It can be used once a day, and one person can pass through at a time.]
"System, did you get the blue fat man's portal here?" Xu Jianguo asked happily with great joy in his heart.
[Ding, the function is similar, but the energy of the Two Realms Stone can only be used once a day by the host.]
"Just once, if this portal is used properly, there will be many benefits."
He looked at the silver metal and the Two Realms Stone in his hand and asked in his mind, "System, what is this metal made of? It can actually block the energy of the Two Realms Stone."
[Ding, this metal material is unknown and does not belong to any known material on the periodic table.]
"Well, it's quite mysterious!"
Xu Jianguo placed the silver metal and the two boundary stones in the main room, then went to the main room and looked at the back door.
As I recall, behind this door was Xu Jianguo’s backyard in his previous life, but I didn’t expect it to become a space portal now.
Xu Jianguo didn't want to try the space portal right now, and planned to wait until he needed it. He left the main hall and came to the open space outside the supermarket. The extra acre of land after the upgrade was still expanding outward like a fan. Xu Jianguo had an idea and began to replan the entire space.
First, the area of the fish pond was expanded to 200 square meters, and then cages for chickens, ducks, and geese, as well as pig pens, were built next to the fish pond so that the poultry and piglets had a place to drink water.
A shallow area extends from the fish pond to the duck house, providing them with a place to absorb water.
Then a 500-square-meter piece of land was replanned, and the well water was turned into fine rain, which was evenly irrigated on the land. As the green grass broke through the ground, a small grassland appeared before our eyes.
After settling the chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle and sheep into their new homes, Xu Jianguo began to prepare feed for the piglets.
You don't have to worry about the cattle and sheep for now. Just water them regularly and the green grass on the ground will be enough for them to eat for a while.
There is no problem with the supply of corn kernels for chickens, ducks and geese, but the feed for pigs needs to be prepared separately.
In fact, it is possible to feed the piglets corn directly, but this stuff is too gluttonous, and Xu Jianguo was a little reluctant to do so, so he planned to use the large pile of straw and corn cobs that he had prepared earlier.
Xu Jianguo ground some straw and corn cobs into powder and put it into the trough dug in advance in the pigpen, then poured some cornmeal into it and stirred it evenly with well water.
The rich aroma attracted 20 little pigs to grunt non-stop, and they swarmed to the trough and began to eat frantically.
After preparing corn kernels for the chickens, ducks and geese, Xu Jianguo started a new round of planting. Since the breeding area occupied nearly half of the area, the current planting area was only one thousand square meters, about one and a half mu.
There is still a lot of food in the warehouse, enough for Xu Jianguo and Funiu to eat for several years, so this time he will focus on growing corn. After all, corn can be used as staple food or as feed.
In addition to corn, Xu Jianguo also set aside three acres of land for growing vegetables. After all, winter is coming soon, and Funiu will have to eat without fresh vegetables.
After planting all the seeds in the ground, Xu Jianguo watered the well again, and then adjusted the time flow rate in the breeding area to 20 times, and the time flow rate in the planting area to 120 times.
The reason why the time flow rate in the breeding area was adjusted to 20 times was because Xu Jianguo could not think about feeding all the time. With such a 20-fold flow rate, he only needed to use his mind to prepare a day's feed every hour.
But if the flow rate is 120 times, it means that Xu Jianguo has to prepare a day's feed every 12 minutes, which is really too tiring.
As for the planting area, there is no need to water it every day. Xu Jianguo only needs to water it once every hour when feeding the animals. This is equivalent to watering it once every five days, and the timing is very reasonable.
It would be nice to have an automatic feeding or automatic irrigation function when the space is upgraded, Xu Jianguo thought to himself.
After doing all this, Xu Jianguo used his mind to build a small earthen house outside the supermarket, intending to use it as a wine cellar.
I found a few red candles in the supermarket and placed them in a large bowl. I used a water bath to melt the candles. Then I took out the two boxes of Moutai liquor and dipped the mouth of each bottle in the wax liquid. After it cooled and solidified naturally, the wax seal of the bottle was ready.
The reason for doing this is to prevent the white wine from evaporating. Under normal circumstances, thermoplastic film should be used, but Xu Jianguo doesn't have it now, so he can only make do with it.
Put the wax-sealed Moutai into the wine cellar, and then turn on the time flow rate to the maximum 120 times. In this way, as long as Xu Jianguo waits for a while, he will be able to drink Moutai that has been stored in the cellar for ten or even a hundred years.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the wax seal he made can work. If the seal is not in place, it would be good if two-thirds of the whole bottle of Moutai can remain after ten or twenty years.
After finishing all the work, Xu Jianguo made himself a bowl of instant noodles. After eating and drinking, he took a shower and then left the space.
However, when Xu Jianguo returned to the dormitory room, his face changed drastically. Funiu, who was originally sleeping on the bed, was gone.
