Chapter 29 Chapter 29 "We meet again."
Because the first chicken coop blueprint was basically not a building, Ye Mian was the first to click on the construction function to check the new blueprint that had just been unlocked.
Unexpectedly, this time, three blueprints were unlocked at once.
In order, they are [simple residence] [primary shop] [large warehouse].
Ye Mian clicked on the blueprint and took it to the system warehouse. He took it out one by one and took a quick look. All three buildings had only one floor and the structure was relatively simple, but they required a few more types of construction materials.
Speaking of building materials, Ye Mian turned his gaze and fell on the square gift package of building materials in the grid in front.
Although she guessed that there must be a lot of things inside when she saw the big words, she was still a little surprised when she actually opened it.
【Congratulations on winning the "Stone Package" X100! 】
【Congratulations on winning the "Wood Pack" X100! 】
【Congratulations on winning the "Steel Package" X100! 】
【Congratulations on winning "cement bag" x100! 】
【Congratulations on winning "Sand and Gravel Bag" X100! 】
It's not stone X100, but they are all packages that can be further disassembled.
Ye Mian, who had just unpacked two packages of wood yesterday, was slightly stunned. Then he couldn't help but smile with mixed feelings. The materials were definitely enough, but what was lacking now was people to build the house.
And you need not only strength and drive, you also need experience, otherwise you might accidentally build a dangerous building.
While having breakfast, Ye Mian showed the three blueprints to Xue Kai, Lu Ning and Chen Jia, and they had the same idea.
Afterwards, Chen Jia hesitated for a moment, but still tried to say, "There is an uncle in our village who used to work on a construction site. In recent years, he has built a lot of rural self-built houses with the county's contractors. He is considered to be quite experienced."
"So what is he like now?" Xue Kai asked subconsciously.
Ye Mian and Lu Ning also looked over.
"Well, he's an Evolver now. I saw him two days ago."
After hearing this answer, the person who was being watched by everyone this time was Ye Mian.
Ye Mian did think about recruiting a few people from Xie Yi's group, but they had already become a team and had someone they were determined to follow. Apart from Chen Jia, who had excluded himself, there were no other suitable candidates.
That leaves only two options.
One is to take them all in for yourself.
Another option is to hire a few of them as temporary workers, and settle the wages immediately after the work is completed on the same day, without any debt owed to each other.
But no matter which method is used, we still need to accumulate more trust between each other.
We've only met her twice so far, and she hasn't even given her name yet, so we can only take it step by step.
After thinking about it, Ye Mian said thoughtfully: "Let's wait and see. Now let's focus on growing crops and vegetables."
She has already bought a bunch of seeds, and her spiritual energy value today is 6+1, so she can plant more and harvest some crops for trading.
After all, after yesterday, the points have returned to the starting point, and there is not much rhenium left.
Speaking of accumulating points, Ye Mian thought of another source after breakfast.
——Although the points given by the side quests are not many, they are more than the main quests.
Previously, she had been holding back from refreshing because she wanted to see what rewards the collection mission that required those three special foods would have. Now that she has completed the mission, she can refresh some new missions.
It just so happened that this was the fertilizing and sowing stage, which was relatively easy, so Ye Mian opened the task interface and refreshed the side quests.
The interface flashed for a moment, and then five new tasks that could be accepted were displayed.
It is still collection + exploration. The last task is [Raise three animals (1/3)]
But now there are no normal animals outside, and they can only rely on the pot of half-lotus grass in the house to attract some animals from nowhere. Ye Mian thought for a moment and clicked to accept it.
After all, the above two exploration tasks will probably take some time to complete. If you can't complete them, just refresh and give up.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Mian looked carefully at the two collection tasks.
The first thing needed is wheat flour and corn flour, but both are X100. The reward is no more than 10,000 points and it is definitely not worth it, so Ye Mian skipped it.
The second thing to collect is 50 mushrooms and 50 bamboo shoots. Although it is relatively difficult, it is not impossible to do.
As for bamboo shoots, Ye Mian turned his head and looked at Xue Kai who had already gone to the third plot of land to apply fertilizer: "You said before that bamboo shoots will grow in the bamboo forest, right?"
"Ah, yes." Xue Kai was a little confused when asked this question out of the blue. "I checked yesterday and found some bamboo shoots have already sprouted."
Ye Mian hummed: "Got it."
She thought that the bamboo forest was just an ornamental feature like the flowers, plants and rocks beside the fish pond. She didn't expect it to be real bamboo and could grow bamboo shoots.
After seeing her click a few times in the air and then start to focus on fertilizing again, Xue Kai realized that this was a new task, so he didn't ask any more questions and continued to do his work.
Because there are four of them now, and there is no other important work to do except farming and growing vegetables, so it didn't take long before they successfully completed the planting quantity planned by Ye Mian.
But except Ye Mian, the other three were all busy.
It just so happened that Dahei was too bored and started chasing Wild Panax notoginseng for fun, so Lu Ning simply took it out hunting and tried out the actual combat effectiveness of the new weapon.
Ye Mian originally wanted to follow along on an exploration mission, but when he saw that the instructions only gave a rough direction, which was obviously a bit far, he gave up.
And it is also time for Dahei to grow up slowly and learn to judge and choose tactics on his own.
This way, even if the battle becomes chaotic and Ye Mian is unable to take care of it for a while, it will be able to handle it on its own.
After watching Lu Ning and Dahei walk away, Ye Mian thought for a moment, then promptly grabbed the person next to him who wanted to go to the kitchen to practice cooking and the other who wanted to go to the warehouse to do some carpentry, and arranged a new task for them.
"Let's learn how to drive."
"Ah?" Xue Kai looked puzzled. "Why do you need to learn to drive? Don't you have that feather? You also have Lu Ning with you when you go out. Chen Jia shouldn't need to go far away to work, right?"
Chen Jia was a little stunned: "I want to learn too?"
"Yes," Ye Mian nodded solemnly, "We will learn both of them."
As for why he wanted to learn, Ye Mian naturally had a reasonable reason.
The feather can only go to places she can imagine, which means she needs to go there and see the nearby scenery before she can teleport there instantly.
And she tried it later yesterday, but the feather could only carry one person, not more than one person.
When she goes to a place alone, there will always be times when she needs to drive.
Another thing is that the scope of the farm will be further expanded in the future. Since we have decided to pave the road, it will be more time-saving and labor-saving to drive back and forth, and it can also transport goods.
If Chen Jia could also drive, she could help more.
After listening to Ye Mian's explanation of the reasons for learning to drive, Chen Jia nodded immediately: "I will learn!"
Xue Kai was also completely convinced: "Then the coach is me?"
"certainly."
Although he felt a lot of pressure, Xue Kai thought that he didn't need to follow any traffic rules nowadays. He just needed to step on the accelerator, brake, turn and reverse. He patted his chest and said, "Okay, I will teach you until you learn it!"
That being said, Xue Kai was not very familiar with the car because it was a new one, so he drove two laps by himself to get used to it before he turned to teach Ye Mian and Chen Jia.
This teaching took most of the day, and even lunch was just a simple meal.
But it’s not that Ye Mian and Chen Jia are slow learners, but that large trucks are not suitable for novices to drive. In addition, the road surface is uneven and bumpy, so some operations that require more proficiency require repeated practice to be done just right.
Ye Mian was fine, he learned quickly, had a steady mentality, and was extremely precise in his operations, and he could already drive smoothly in this wasteland.
Chen Jia is a little lacking in talent, and she is particularly prone to focusing on one thing, so she would be a little overwhelmed if she had to take care of other things. She learned this and ignored that, and until the sun was about to set, she was still learning how to step on the accelerator and brake more steadily.
When Lu Ning came back with Da Hei, he just saw Chen Jia driving the pickup truck out quickly and then stopping with a squeak. The whole process took no more than five seconds and the car didn't go many meters far.
"...I'll teach her later."
The boxing gym has accepted many students in the past, and Lu Ning has taught several groups of students. He knows how to adopt different teaching methods according to their different personalities.
"Well, no rush, she can learn slowly."
What Ye Mian is more concerned about now is what Dahei dragged back.
It was just getting dark at this time and the lights in the farm had not yet come on. All that could be seen was a large mass of dark brown and needle-like hairs all over the body.
[Mutated wild boar, a low-level mutant beast, with delicious and nutritious meat, and its weak point is the jaw]
Following her gaze towards the big wild boar, Lu Ning said, "We found it in a small village in the mountains. It should be a low-level mutant beast that can be eaten, right?"
Ye Mian nodded: "Yes, it looks delicious."
"That's good," Lu Ning said, and took out the short sword he carried with him. "By the way, with its blessing, I feel that my combat power has been strengthened. I should be able to try to deal with the intermediate mutants."
Lu Ning has always been very honest. He knows whether he can win or not, and he is neither too modest nor overly boastful.
Ye Mian raised his eyebrows slightly, and understood a little: "Are you ready?"
Just as he finished speaking, he heard a heavy door slam, and Xue Kai stumbled over and said, "Is there meat to eat? Come on, Lu Ning, let's go get some meat!"
Seeing him running towards the kitchen without looking back, Lu Ning first nodded heavily to Ye Mian, and then he and Dahei followed, dragging the big wild boar.
"Hmm..." I'm ready.
Ye Mian first looked into the distance, then retracted his gaze and said to Chen Jia, who had just gotten out of the driver's seat and was still a little embarrassed, "Come on, drive two laps with me."
It was dusk, and the hazy and gentle light gradually brightened up.
Even the wind has become warmer.
Chen Jia's expression eased a little, and he nodded with a smile: "Okay."
Unlike the peaceful atmosphere on the farm, brother and sister Xu Ziyue and Xu Zijia have been very busy these days.
They first moved to a new place, then found ways to recruit more people, and finally they had almost figured out all the nearby hills and eliminated some potential dangers.
But even so, they still didn't dare to relax. After all, the next problem waiting for them to solve would not be so easy.
"Come closer this time, don't be afraid."
"...I'm not afraid. I'm just worried that I won't be able to run fast enough if I bring you with me."
Xu Ziyue rolled her eyes at him: "You talk as if you were really running."
Before Xu Zijia could scratch his head and argue, she suddenly smelled something and raised her hand to interrupt him: "It seems like there is someone."
"Hmm?" Xu Zijia looked doubtful. Shouldn't they be the only ones in this mountain?
"Over there, take me there."
"oh."
The two men walked silently through the bushes and came to a cliff extending out from the mountainside, where they saw a strange yet somewhat familiar figure.
Just as the two were looking at each other in surprise, the figure turned around and looked accurately at the brother and sister hiding in the dark.
"We meet again."
