Chapter 43 Chapter 43 "Although I have dated someone, it's nothing...
Rare blind box?
Ye Mian paused, thinking of the treasure map she got from the rare blind box last time, which allowed her to harvest a lot of diesel, and she couldn't help but feel a little excited.
But then he thought of something else and didn't rush to open the fishing line. Instead, he continued to cast the rod out, preparing to finish this best hour of fishing first.
What I didn’t expect was that my luck was really good today. In addition to catching a bunch of uncommon sea fish and lobsters, I also caught a rare blind box and an ordinary blind box.
When Ye Mian took the fish basket to the reservoir to empty it, Xue Kai was stunned. Apart from the more common lobsters and hairy crabs, there were some fish that he had only seen on TV and in books.
When he finally saw a giant octopus enter the small reservoir with its claws and teeth bared, he opened his mouth wide, excited but also a little embarrassed: "What should I do?"
Sister Cao is the one who cooks the big pot meals in the cafeteria. She is not a professional chef and she looked very flustered at the moment. She never expected that in such a situation, she would still feel helpless because the ingredients were too good.
Ye Mian had not expected that his rich harvest would bring such great pressure to the two of them. He coughed lightly and said, "Didn't I bring back a few cooking books last time? There should be one that specializes in seafood."
"Oh yeah! I'll get it!"
Watching Xue Kai rushing to the living room shelf to look for a book like a gust of wind, and Sister Cao starting to prepare side dishes and ingredients, Ye Mian smiled helplessly, then walked around the path on the side, passed the chicken coop, and walked out along the ridge of the field.
It's almost April, and the daytime has become visibly longer recently. Even after six o'clock, it's not completely dark yet.
There was already a dim light inside the farm, reflecting a few people who were still working hard in the distance, and there was an inexplicable sense of tranquility.
As he got closer, Ye Mian discovered that stone walls had been built on the foundation that was being laid in the morning, and several houses had taken shape.
Although there were ready-made blueprints and experienced people on hand to provide guidance, and the physical fitness of the evolvers had been greatly enhanced, the efficiency still slightly surprised her.
At this rate, won’t we be able to move in tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?
After all, there is still some furniture left from last time, which is more than enough for the current number of people.
Lu Ning, who was still helping and supervising, saw Ye Mian and called Chen Hong, who was more in charge of command but also not idle, to come over together.
Chen Hong briefly reported the current work progress to Ye Mian.
It was pretty much as Ye Mian guessed. Since it was just a one-story house, it would be almost finished tonight and people could move in after some cleaning tomorrow.
"From the blueprints, it seems that we will need to build further up, so we just need to pay more attention when making the roof. The rest is pretty simple."
Ye Mian thought so too. After all, the name of the blueprint was [Simple House]. There would most likely be an upgraded blueprint in the future. Building directly upwards would save space and be convenient.
"Well, in short, you must ensure absolute safety. Don't worry."
Chen Hong nodded: "Don't worry, the materials are all good, and I will carefully monitor every step."
After saying this, seeing that Ye Mian had no other questions, Chen Hong continued to work.
Lu Ning stayed and talked with Ye Mian about the afternoon meeting. Lu Ning didn't have any other ideas, but there was one thing he cared about.
"I think we need to set a specific overtime time, for example, we can't work overtime after 10 pm, so as not to disturb other people's rest."
Lu Ning raised his chin and signaled to the people over there: "Otherwise they will have to work all night."
Ye Mian looked over silently. Indeed, he had been working for a whole day and was still full of energy. He had no idea how to describe the word "tired".
"Okay, you too."
"Uh," Lu Ning was stunned for a moment, then he couldn't help laughing, "I see."
It was not until dinner time that the group of people stopped working and walked back, chatting and laughing.
Ye Mian listened for a while and after hearing that they were either competing to see who worked faster or who got praised more, he shook his head and stopped listening.
But it was also thanks to the two young men who were about the same age as Xue Kai. They were optimistic and pure. Instead of numbing themselves with busyness, they just let things take their course and enjoyed a fulfilling life. With them livening up the atmosphere and changing the subject, the other older guys had basically no time to think about random things.
But because I am young, some strange thoughts always pop up in my mind.
After eating a seafood dinner, Ye Mian called Wang Xu out alone and walked to the grape vine trellis outside the house to sit down.
Just when she was about to say something and ask Wang Xu to stay quiet, she saw that he looked nervous, his eyes flickering with anxiety and a hint of anticipation, and he was rubbing his hands back and forth under the wooden table.
"?" Ye Mian asked doubtfully, "What's wrong with you?"
"Well... that..." Wang Xu blushed and lowered his head, not daring to look at her. "Although I have dated before, I don't have much experience..."
"Um?"
Ye Mian was stunned for a moment, and only realized what he was talking about after a while. For a moment, he didn't know whether to be speechless or amused: "What are you thinking about? I want to use your skills."
It was as if she wanted to take him in as her male concubine because he was young and strong.
I heard him and Xue Kai mentioned during their casual chat at the dinner table that they both read some novels, but it was obvious that they read completely different types of novels.
"Ah? Oh..." Wang Xu did not feel ashamed, but sat up straight immediately, as if he was just waiting to be told, "Boss, please go ahead."
I've only been with Xue Kai for one day, but he's already learned his name.
Ye Mian shook his head and asked casually while opening the system warehouse: "Have your skills ever benefited other people around you?"
Wang Xu recalled for a moment, then said thoughtfully: "If not becoming the mutants' first choice of attack target counts, then there should be some."
Hearing this, Ye Mian looked at him again. If the people around him could do this, then he himself should be even more ignored by the mutants. It was equivalent to a combination of dodging + invisibility + strong wall, but there was a time limit and it could not be maintained all the time.
But a moment is enough.
Putting aside other thoughts, Ye Mian nodded and said nothing more, focusing on the three blind boxes in the warehouse.
After waiting for a while, feeling that her luck had almost run out, she opened the ordinary blind box first.
【Congratulations on winning "Seed Gift Pack" X1! 】
There is a big word, which means that the number of seed bags opened is basically more than 100, so you’ve made a profit!
Ye Mian breathed a sigh of relief, then clicked on the first rare blind box.
【Congratulations on getting "Mysterious Seed" X10! 】
Looking at the text box, Ye Mian's eyes lit up. These were the mysterious seeds that could grow cherry fruits!
And there are exactly ten of them!
Maybe we can grow some other special fruits and vegetables besides cherries!
That way, whether it's fruit sandwiches or vegetable salads and corn pizzas, you can probably make them in batches!
Thinking about it, Ye Mian couldn't help but praise: "Your skills are very good."
Wang Xu probably knew a little bit about her having a system, so he had been sitting there quietly without interrupting her operation. Now that he was unexpectedly praised, he was a little shy: "Thank you, as long as you can use it, Boss."
In addition to him, she also has to thank Xie Yi. After all, if Xie Yi hadn't given the person to her instead of trying to please Wen Yuan and the others, there would be no surprise now.
Give him a little more next time.
Ye Mian put the ten mysterious seeds together with satisfaction, and planned to call Xue Kai to see where to plant them.
After taking a deep breath, she solemnly clicked the second rare blind box.
【Congratulations on winning "Dream Brand Juicer" X1! 】
Ye Mian was startled, then subconsciously looked at the juicer in the compartment next to him, and he found an extra piece of paper in another compartment.
[Dream brand juicer: can squeeze out Dream brand exclusive fruit and vegetable juice! ]
On that piece of paper were the recipes for various fruit and vegetable juices, including the corn juice, carrot juice, black snow juice that Ye Mian was familiar with, as well as watermelon juice and cherry juice.
Both black snow juice and cherry juice require special ingredients.
Now we can make food and squeeze our own drinks, so isn’t that the first store? !
Ye Mian couldn't help but smiled widely after all, and just as he was about to close the warehouse interface contentedly, he met the gaze of Wang Xu, whose eyes were full of curiosity.
"Well..." She took out the last plate of corn pizza in the warehouse and pushed it across the wooden table, "eat it."
Originally, Ye Mian was planning to observe for a few more days before deciding who to give the corn pizza to, but now he doesn’t have to think about it at all.
And with the mysterious seeds in her hand, she didn't believe that she couldn't grow a flame fruit.
Wang Xu suppressed his curiosity and picked up the corn pizza without saying a word. He chewed it in a few bites and swallowed it. After eating it, he exclaimed: "Wow, this is so delicious. I have never eaten such delicious pizza!"
Because it would take some time for the pizza to take effect, Ye Mian stood up first: "Wait here for a while, I'll be right over."
Ye Mian brought Xue Kai and Lu Ning, who had come with him, and planted the ten mysterious seeds in the open space next to the bamboo forest that was used as a landscaping for the fish pond. Then they quickly returned to the grape trellis.
Wang Xu still sat there with his back straight, without any slackness.
And his skill information has quietly changed to [Luck+].
If I had known this, I would have given it to him first.
However, this thought only lasted for a moment before Ye Mian put it aside. She was very satisfied with what she had just opened and did not expect anything better.
Anyway, there will be many opportunities to use this skill in the future.
But Ye Mian still didn't expect that [Luck+] would be so powerful. When he woke up the next morning and saw the spiritual essence value of 10+1 in the farm information, he was stunned for a moment.
Then he quickly got up, washed, and went downstairs to take out all the seeds that had been prepared in advance in the system warehouse.
After everyone gathered, he waved his hand and said, "We can do other work later. Let's plant and harvest these seeds first."
The others were still a little confused after following the order, but Xue Kai knew immediately that this was a mission. Without saying a word, he handed the task of making breakfast to Sister Cao and Chen Jia, and personally took people out to farm.
Fortunately, because there were so many people yesterday, Ye Mian brought back some farm machinery and planted some wheat and rice. They were almost ripe by the afternoon.
Some seeds of vegetable crops that mature quickly will be planted, and at noon, the busy harvesting work will begin.
The value of [Lucky+] was still increasing. Before halfway through the afternoon, Ye Mian received a text box reminder that the task was completed.
[Extra gains in a single day reach thirty (30/30), experience +100, points +100! ]
[Successfully completed five main tasks, and automatically received the stage reward (including building materials gift package X1, precious blind box X1, 1000 points)]
[New main quests are now available! ]
