I Became the Progenitor Vampire Chapter 147

Chapter 147: Card 148: Modern Pig Farm vs. Magical Pig Farm

Lide shared his ideas for establishing a breeding farm with Dylan and Harrison.

Pig farming was essential; there seemed to be no other option for subsistence apart from relying on it.

Suddenly establishing a breeding farm might appear surprising, but for Dawn City, it's an indispensable project.

Firstly, the current source of food was too limited–the residents of Dawn City subsisted entirely on wheat, and bread topped with a bit of honey was already considered a luxury.

As for meat, what was that? Was it to eat or to use? Most would say they hadn't laid eyes on it since their arrival in Dawn City.

Nevertheless, few were dissatisfied, for just avoiding a hungry belly during the Frost Month was a blessing from the Goddess of Luck.

But in Lide's view, it wasn't the same–if it weren't for the fact that the Bloodline didn't need human food, life would be unbearable for him.

As a seasoned carnivore, how could it be bearable without meat??

The second point, also the most crucial one.

The currently few Magic Language Bats were struggling to keep pace with the booming development of Dawn City, so he had to increase their numbers.

These thick-skinned Demon Beasts could serve as powerful transportation tools, which was vital for the rapidly developing Dawn City.

Here lay a key issue–if they were to continue the rough-and-tumble free-range method as before, it would severely restrict the number of Magic Language Bats.

Free-range was a very primitive form of husbandry, uncontrollable throughout the process, and any emergencies could seriously impact the Magic Language Bats.

Establishing a breeding farm would be different, with all initiative in his hands; he could fully control the number of Magic Language Bats through the farm.

Both were sly old foxes who had lived for over a hundred years. Though Lide may not have received a modern education, his acute vision was apparent. After he explained the pros and cons, the prejudices of the second-generation Bloodline members also dissipated.

It seemed there was nothing wrong with noble Spellcasters rearing pigs… If the Ancestor Crown wasn't afraid, what was there to fear for us?

“Clan Leader, where will the breeding farm be established?”

Harrison directly addressed the most critical issue; the location of the breeding farm was the most important step in the farming process.

After pondering for a moment, Lide spoke slowly.

“The farm must be situated downwind; otherwise, the feces produced by the swine will cause severe air pollution.

It's best to be far from the residential areas of Dawn City, and there must be an ample water supply, convenient transportation…”

After listing a series of requirements, he paused briefly. “The City Hall can issue a notice to recruit people who have experience with pig farming from among the residents, hiring them as official employees,

let these humans take care of the pig rearing, while the Bloodline simply provides the necessary magic assistance…”

Let's not mention that the Bloodline lacked the Talent for farming and husbandry; he wouldn't waste such valuable combat power on a grand scale in the breeding farm–a few small teams to support the breeding would be enough.

Upon hearing this, Harrison and Dylan exchanged glances, silently relieved. Thankfully, in the end, it was the humans who would rear the pigs. If the Ancestor Crown had asked them to do it personally, it really would have been a headache.

“The first batch of pigs can be captured from the Blood Plateau, and as soon as the breeding farm is established, we will move directly to the rearing stage.

Don't be afraid of making mistakes; expanding the Magic Language Bat Clan won't be accomplished in a day or two. Moreover, I believe there are enough wild animals on the Blood Plateau to complete this expansion. These two projects can proceed simultaneously.”

“Yes, Clan Leader.”

“In the future, the name Blood Plateau shall be changed to Dawn Plain and the small plain behind the southern district renamed to Moonlight Plain; ensure to propagate these changes through official decrees.”

Blood Plateau just wasn't a good name, so Lide went ahead and changed it.

“Yes, Clan Leader,”

Harrison nodded, quietly noting down the orders meant for City Hall.

“I'll give you the blueprints for the breeding farm later. You go ahead and post the announcement first.”

After Harrison and Dylan left, Lide stretched leisurely.

Standing up, he approached the broad window and the lively streets below came into view through the transparent glass, a smile creeping into his eyes.

Building a city was indeed a tedious task; every step required careful attention.

But seeing the city grow bit by bit under his hands filled him with an indescribable sense of achievement.

Lide shook his head, lamenting his lack of culture. Otherwise, he would've recited a fitting poem at that moment.

After a while, Lide turned and stepped outside his office, instructing the Bloodline guards to prevent anyone from entering. Then, he lay down on the plush sofa in his office and returned to Earth.

Opening his eyes, he was back in the familiar room. After moving his body and taking care of physiological needs, he booted up the laptop on his desk and browsed the official Glory website. Seeing the same unchanged screen, he shut it by clicking the 'x'.

Although Glory was causing bigger and bigger ripples in Huaxia, it seemed a powerful force was keeping the discussions contained to a small area. It was hard for Lide to find any useful information online.

After checking Baidu and Weibo and finding no clues, he decisively gave up.

Business first.

He then searched online for several pig farm blueprints and took careful notes.

After becoming Bloodline, even his memory back on Earth had greatly improved–just a glance at the blueprints, and he memorized them completely.

Once his work was done, Lide found himself bored in front of the computer. The excitement of Glory made his previous life seem so dull.

Shaking his head, he got up and exercised for half an hour, took a shower and lay down on his bed to re-enter Glory.

A ratio of one to three in time meant it hadn't been long on Earth, but seven or eight hours had passed in Glory World.

Waking up, Lide glanced at the office door, where the dedicated Bloodline guard continued to stand unwaveringly by the entrance.

He smiled; Bloodline was truly reliable.

He got up and went to his desk, casually drawing out the pig farm blueprints he had just memorized.

Although it was a modern pig farm with many high-tech devices that didn't exist in Glory World, this world had something Earth did not–magic.

Lide was not worried that a modernized farm wouldn't work in this world; he didn't have to copy everything exactly. By combining magic, he could definitely create a unique magic-enhanced farm that belonged to Glory World.

You have your modern farm; I'll have my magic farm. Let's call it even.

He imagined Mage Apprentices using Mage's Hand to feed pigs, utilizing the Fireball Technique to disinfect pens, and Healing Skill when pigs fell ill… such a beautiful vision.

Moreover, the idea of Bloodline, an Upper Race, farming pigs? Tsk, just thinking about it brought an inexplicable amusement.

A mischievously delighted expression crossed Lide's face as he looked forward to seeing Dylan, a formidable Level 10 warrior with Demon Bat wings, herding pigs.

Why was it so funny? Hhha, it's not that I'm not being generous–it's just, who made me, in all my grandeur and righteousness, your boss?
