Chapter 52 Small Vegetable Field

The employees of the brewery were hanging around the factory area with question marks on their heads . It meant that their works were stopped because of something unexpected had happened . Only when the factory was set to the rest mode did they finally begin to quiet down and find their own entertainment methods .

The brewery used a wide range of raw materials, Things like wheat and corn were quite common materials . But how could vegetables such as cabbage be used to brew alcohol? Zhou Yu just did not know how that worked at all . He did not even know if the alcohol that was made by those materials was drinkable .

The old drunkard seemed very happy . He, who was addicted to alcohol, simply loved this brewery . Even if the brewery couldn't start yet, he still hung around the brewery all the time . Zhou Yu suspected, that he was trying to find the best spot to sneak in . So he could steal alcohols at any time in the future . Especially that he had insisted on moving his house next to the brewery, which made it even more suspicious .

Since the brewery was built, the old Drunkard finally settled down . His settle requirement was to build a brewery, but it didn't say that the brewery had to be functional . Upon closer inspection, his identity had changed from temporary residence to official resident, and his function was not to unlock buildings, but to exist as a martial arts instructor .

The function of a martial arts instructor was, that it could make fighting plays more pleasant to the eyes . Both Animation Base and The Game Company could invite him to join the project . However, because it was not an employee, so whether to accept the invitation or not, it depended on his mood . Of course, if Zhou Yu got The Seed Of Martial Art Instructor, he could also try to grow it . However, the ability was certainly not as good as the old drunkard . But they were definitely more obedient .

It was a shame, that there was no martial arts hall, that he had expected . The plan, that Zhou Yu wanted to learn martial arts and then take revenge on those small beasts, failed instantly .

Now that he had a martial art instructor, he naturally wanted to create a martial art animation . Once the animation was produced, not only would he be able to enjoy the new animation, he could also let children see some different style of animations . Little Rat had been talking about kungfu panda for a while now . Although his animation was not in 3D, with a martial art instructor, he believed that it would be better than an animation made by foreigners, who did not know kung-fu .

"Old drunkard, please get into the animation base . There is a movie called 'Huang Feihong', which need a good martial instructor like you . "

When Zhou Yu was a child, he liked to watch the series "Huang Feihong" . When that classic BGM sounded, his whole body would become uncontrollably excited . With the old drunkard, he could finally enjoy his childhood Wuxia dream .

However, the old drunkard's face was filled with a scornful expression . He shook his empty calabash bottle and said, "Want me to work? Without any alcohol from the brewery, don't talk to me!"

'Damnit, I forgot about that this alcoholic would never work for free!' Zhou Yu had no choice but to hurry up preparing for everything that needed for the brewery to start functioning .

Perhaps because the brewery was built, the related raw materials also began to emerge one after another . After receiving the vegetable seeds that were suitable to grow in the autumn from the Gashapon machine ten times, and a "Divine Farmer's Red Sandalwood Hoe" from the third dragon prince's treasure bowl, it was clear to Zhou Yu, that even God was also rushing him to work in the fields .

Divine Farmer's Red Sandalwood Hoe would add a "Hundred Plants" effect to the soil, allowing the soil to grow all kinds of crops . The quality of the harvested products would be increased by 30%, and there was a probability of the planted vegetables to mutate and become a Vegetable King .

Oh well, since he was destined to become a farmer, then he should start to do the things that farmers would do, which was to have a small vegetable field in his yard .

Agricultural work was not easy . Even if a small area was selected to be the vegetable field in the yard, the result was that Zhou Yu still didn't know where to start . He could only call over Little Rat and asked him to demonstrate how to grow vegetables .

Although Little Rat also wasn't professional and the number of time he worked in the field was also not much, he was born into a farmer's family . Therefore, to him, plowing a small vegetable filed was not a problem . But he was still curious why would Brother Yu, who had never touched any farm work except for growing flowers and making mini landscapes, want to plant vegetables?

"Brother Yu, what kind of seeds are those? Would you like to erect some fences?"

"I don't know . Just trying out something . We will know in the future . "

In fact, he really did not know . Because he got all those seeds from the Gashapon machine . And they were all shown in question marks . Probably their names would be shown after the harvest .

When Little Rat heard Brother Yu's answer, he could not help roll his eyes . Brother Yu was still Brother Yu . He was always doing strange things . Not knowing what kind of seeds they were, he still dared to plant them in his yard . When he finished planting, he just sprayed some water to the soil without doing any other measures at all . If Grandpa saw this, he would definitely spend some time to lecture brother Yu .

After finishing the small vegetable field, there were three ridges in total . The vegetable field was near the flower greenhouse, occupying a small area of the corner . Looking at the status of the field through the eyes of The ACG world, Zhou Yu found that they were just shown "normal" . It seemed like it would not work if there were no professionals to look after those vegetables .

There were also special agricultural fertilizers for vegetables . Unlike the flower fertilizer, the respawning point was an abandoned bell tower, locating at the west end of the village . The Bell Tower used to be a supply and marketing agency . It was a Western-style building . On the top floor, there were only several pillars . Under its eaves, hundreds of swallows were flying in and out every day . Clearly, it had become a paradise for swallows .

Squatting over there for five minutes could collect a small package of farm manure . And it would be refreshed once in six hours . The problem was that there were more than a dozen vegetable seeds in the three ridges in the vegetable field . Would such a small package provide enough nutrition to so many seeds?

Having thought it over and over again, he, who was really a layman of growing vegetable, decided not to continue growing it blindly . After collecting the manure, he went back to the yard and asked the beaver to build another farmer's hut . Previously, Tian Niang had been taking care of five potted plants already . It was already her limit . So before upgrading, Zhou Yu did not think that she would be able to help him .

Uncle Guan Er's Ironwood Farmer's Hut(One star): likes farming, hates raising flowers and looking after animals, and is able to take care of two standard farmlands maximum . " The so-called standard farmland could be shown by the eye of The ACG world . A blue area was a standard farmland . The three-ridge vegetables filed, which was completed yesterday, was just happened to be the right size of one standard farmland .

In the eyes of The ACG World, if a seed was planted in the small area in the vegetable filed, the area would be shown that it had been used and it could not be planted with other seeds . So 10 seeds on a ridge were very planted very neatly . Based on this, a farmer could take care of 60 vegetables at most, which was pretty good for a little person .

After the second farmer's hut was settled in Mini Luhua Village, a mini tall and muscular man came out of the hut and greeted Zhou Yu . Although he did not have a red face and long lush beard(1), he also looked formidable . Carrying a hoe, he ran to the small vegetable field vigorously and began to plow the soil .

Professionals were indeed extraordinary . He could even spray the farm manure equally and raise the status of the vegetable field to "excellent" . Although it could not compare to the perfect status of the plants that were taken care of by Tian Niang, it was still quite understandable to have this kind of status . After all, the number of vegetables that needed to be taken care of was much more than Tian Niang's potted plants, so a little worse was understandable .

In this way, in addition to ridging and planting the seeds at the beginning, there was no need for Zhou Yu to do other works, he just needed to wait for the harvest of the vegetables . It was actually quite convenient .

Therefore, a strange vegetable field appeared beside the flower greenhouse in Zhou Yu's courtyard .

As long as there were any lands available before or after any farmer's house, planting vegetables in those available areas were quite common in Luhua village . However, Zhou Yu's vegetable field was too small, no one would think that Zhou Yu was able to grow anything in this small area . So the people of Luhua village just thought that Zhou Yu was wasting his time . Oh well, a young man should do some farm works to understand that farming was not an easy task . Although the vegetable field was very small, at least, he would probably learn something from it .
