Chapter 13 Installed it for him again
The core of the fully automatic irrigation system lies in its data collection and management capabilities. For large farms and test fields, this can greatly reduce manpower and facilitate the observation of the irrigation situation of the entire farm at any time.
But the area of land she currently owns is more like a vegetable field than a farm.
Jiang Ning decided to do it herself and make a small one to save some money.
She quickly touched a design drawing and listed each part next to it. As
usual, she went to the back to look through the garbage dump and picked up a few "parts" that looked useful.
Comparing the list, she went to the hardware market and bought a few tees and some PVC pipes, which cost about 17 star coins in total.
Jiang Ning's heart was in tears as she watched the ever-decreasing balance in Xing Nao.
The improvement of her supernatural power required money.
Flower pots, fertilizers, irrigation devices, and planting soil.
The first three were small amounts of money, and as for the last one...
well,
if only her sunlight could summon the soil!
This would save a lot of money.
Jiang Ning returned home and assembled the purchased accessories into a non-powered booster device. She connected the device to the empty plastic bottles she picked up, and then connected the irrigation hose, and a simple irrigation device was ready.
She arranged them in the shape of a "well" and fixed them next to the sunflower.
Jiang Ning tried it.
After confirming that the water pipe could discharge water smoothly after starting the device, Jiang Ning put away the remaining accessories.
She connected a three-way pipe to the back of the water pipe, so that it would be convenient to install more irrigation devices in the future.
In the next two days, she raised the protective wall around the farm by one layer.
Busy until the night, Jiang Ning yawned, and after making sure that her farm was safe, she went back to the house to prepare for bed.
The next morning, Jiang Ning went out as promised.
She coughed twice and knocked on Aunt Li's door.
"It's Jiang Ning, have you had breakfast? Come in and have something to eat together? Gather at 8 o'clock, it's still early now." It
was Uncle Li who opened the door. Jiang Ning glanced and saw that Aunt Li was still in the kitchen making breakfast.
She swallowed her saliva. There were several plates of stir-fried vegetables on the dining table of Aunt Li's house. She had been drinking nutritional solution for several months, and her desire for fresh food reached the extreme.
Jiang Ning turned her eyes away and suppressed her greed: "I ate before I came."
She did drink a bottle of nutritional solution before she came.
"Dad, what are you dawdling about? Come and eat!" Li Xiang shouted to Li's father from behind.
Li Xiang said sarcastically: "Others don't eat, maybe they don't like our breakfast."
Humph!
Their family only eats fresh food once every one or two months, and his father actually wants to ask Jiang Ning to come and eat together!
Jiang Ning's family got so much compensation, they might hide at home and eat delicious food every day, but she never asked them to eat once, not once!
It was already 7:30 when Aunt Li and her family finished breakfast. The four of them walked slowly to the central station.
They took the No. 14 floating bus and arrived at the sign for the West Suburbs No-People Zone.
When the four of them arrived there, there were already three people waiting at the sign.
There were also two adults with a child.
Uncle Li and Aunt Li had already gone over to greet the two adults, leaving Li Xiang looking unhappy.
"Aren't you going to say hello?" Jiang Ning looked at Li Xiang and asked.
She remembered how excited Li Xiang was when he saw Yan Zhou last time.
"No, Ji Fan is much more annoying than you." Li Xiang raised his eyelids.
Jiang Ning: "?"
Li Xiang: "That guy is always showing off. We are all from the slums. I don't understand what he is pretending to be."
In contrast, Li Xiang looked at Jiang Ning with a more pleasing look.
"Hey, what are you two talking about?" While the two were talking, Ji Fan came over. "You are Jiang Ning, the orphan who got the compensation?"
People in the slums heard that a few months ago a rich man gave a large sum of compensation to an orphan.
Because no one knew the exact amount, the story was passed from person to person, and there were all kinds of versions.
There were all kinds of outrageous stories about an orphan who became rich overnight, worth over ten thousand, and crossed classes.
Jiang Ning looked at Ji Fan. The boy was about 14 or 15 years old, very thin, with bangs on the front half of his forehead longer than his eyebrows. Except for the strange dress, everything seemed normal.
But the next second, she saw what Li Xiang meant by pretending.
"Aren't you very rich? Why are you wearing such a cheap Xingnao?" Ji Fan's words were extremely harsh from his 36-degree mouth.
Jiang Ning looked down at the Xingnao bracelet on her hand. The style was a bit old, but it had all the functions it should have, and there didn't seem to be anything wrong.
Just as she was wondering, Ji Fan's voice rang above her head again: "It doesn't look like the latest i15pro-max I'm wearing."
Jiang Ning: "..."
Pretend to be pretending, but what does it mean for this person to drag her down?
Ji Fan's voice was full of boasting, and he looked at the two of them proudly.
Li Xiang rolled his eyes.
In his heart, he thought: He installed it again.
"Really?" Jiang Ning pinched his chin and pretended to think.
She called up the ring that Ji Fan mentioned on the Star Network, then opened the viewing permission, enlarged the picture several times and put it in front of everyone, looking like she was studying it seriously: "Why does it look a little different from the promotional picture?"
Ji Fan didn't expect Jiang Ning to do this, and said stubbornly: "This... Mine is a private custom model, of course it's different from ordinary people's!"
Jiang Ning looked at the Star Brain in his hand meaningfully: "Oh~ So that's it."
"Of course... you are such ignorant people." Ji Fan's face flushed red, and he silently put the hand with the Star Brain behind his back, looking like he didn't want to talk to them anymore.
When Li Xiang saw his attitude, he immediately understood that there was something wrong with the new Star Brain in his hand.
Aha! Pretender.
This time he met a troublemaker!
He silently gave Jiang Ning a thumbs up. The latest model of Star Brain cost at least 10,000 star coins, and he said how could the Pretender's family be willing to buy him such an expensive one.
Love is a pirated copy.
Li Xiang looked at Ji Fan's eyes that had nowhere to go, and felt extremely relieved.
If he didn't pretend to be so arrogant, he wouldn't have been slapped in the face so badly.
After this episode just now, Ji Fan didn't say a word to Jiang Ning and Li Xiang again along the way.
The place they went to this time was the area where the foam cicadas were.
The foam cicadas are D-level monsters. Their attack power is not as strong as that of the thorny lizards. They are not big in size and like to appear in groups, so they can catch about 80-120 at a time.
Before setting off, they had repeatedly compared the recent monster prices in the trading market.
The foam cicada is now around 18 star coins, which is very cost-effective.
The price fluctuations of monsters are usually determined by the market.
Today is this price, and tomorrow it may become another price.
Uncle Li, Aunt Li, and Ji Fan's parents all want to catch it as soon as possible and go home as soon as possible.
They don't plan to stay overnight this time.
After they arrived at the area where the foam cicadas were, Li Xiang took out the equipment he had prepared in advance from his backpack.
He raised his eyebrows proudly at Jiang Ning.
Since he went back last time, he has been diligently studying the "Encyclopedia of Alien Species" at home for three months.
Just to avenge his previous shame.
This time he was fully prepared. In contrast, what did Jiang Ning do in the past three months?
Watering the flowers? Farming?
It sounds like something that a serious person would not do.
He will definitely be able to beat Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning just thought that Li Xiang's eyes twitched, and he didn't know that he was so full of drama.
There are many dry and rotten trees in this area. It is not difficult to see from these rotten woods that there was once a forest here.
And the foam cicadas live on these rotten trees.
Li Xiang always remembered what was written in the Encyclopedia of Alien Species: the body of a foam cicada is slightly oval, with a raised back and leathery front wings that often cover the abdomen. It is about the size of a palm.
Foam cicadas are buried in foam for a long time, hence their name. Foam
cicadas bite people, and the foam they hide in is also poisonous, so you can't just grab them with your hands.
Instead, you have to use tools like pliers.
Li Xiang took out the weapon he brought with him, lifted the bark, and successfully clamped an alien in a pile of foam. Then he used a dagger with his other hand to cut open the shell on the back of the foam cicada. After processing it, it can be put into the nano ring.
He looked in the direction of Jiang Ning and found that she had no tools or daggers in her hands.
Haha, he is still more powerful.
He is really a genius. In just three months, he has mastered all the information about alien creatures.
He couldn't help but walk up to Jiang Ning to show off.
As soon as he approached, Li Xiang's pupils suddenly widened.
Jiang... Jiang Ning is actually catching cicadas with her bare hands? !
"The shells of these cicadas are covered with foam, and the foam is poisonous." Li Xiang hurriedly stopped her.
"Ah?" Jiang Ning's hand holding the cicada was stunned, and she blinked and looked at him, "But these black-spotted cicadas are all dead."
"Dead?" Li Xiang opened his mouth in shock, "How is this possible!"
Jiang Ning: "I thought you all knew before you came."
The cicada didn't move, and didn't cry, so what else could it be but dead.
She had discovered before that the alien creatures here were exactly the same as the creatures in her world, except for some differences in attack sometimes, other habits were almost the same.
When she stepped into this foam cicada area, she noticed something was wrong.
She didn't hear the sound of cicadas.
Logically, there are thousands of cicadas here, and the sound should be very harsh, but it is very quiet here.
So she immediately found a dead tree with traces of foam cicadas.
She found that it was not abnormal, but that the foam cicadas in this area had passed their life cycle.
The lifespan of cicadas is only about 14 days, and the longest is only 60 days. June to July is the season when they are active frequently, and now it is almost the beginning of autumn.
Jiang Ning handed the black-spotted Limo cicada to Li Xiang and demonstrated to him: "The dead cicada is relatively light, it's just an empty shell."
Li Xiang: "..."
He didn't want to talk now.
He was so cautious, it was like a joke.
He even claimed to have read books for three months.
Li Xiang's face flushed instantly. He felt that in Jiang Ning's eyes, he must look like Ji Fan who was slapped in the face at that time.
