Chapter 614 - 6: Cannon Fodder Bootlicker in the Beast World Farming Novel (Part 6)
The last leopard, killed by the bite, was skinned from head to toe by Jiang Lai, who cleaned off any remaining flesh, washed the fur, dried it, and tossed it onto the bed as a sleeping bag.
The original owner wasn’t afraid of the cold, but that doesn’t mean it’s not cold when sleeping at night.
Jiang Lai is a hedonist, and since she has the means, she must elevate her quality of life.
So when she found out Little Buding had a teleportation function, she started plotting.
That night, Jiang Lai rolled into her homemade snow leopard skin sleeping bag. The soft, dry fur felt very comfortable as it rubbed against her, and she spread another sheet underneath, almost like a modern Simmons mattress.
Surrounded by darkness, Jiang Lai looked at the mobile power supply she had dragged into the house, a glint of excitement in her eyes.
"President Ding, don’t you think it’s a waste to use such a good item for just a chainsaw?"
Better not to mention it because Little Buding was filled with regret the moment she did.
Focused on showing off in front of Jiang Lai, he never considered that such an expensive gadget was paired with just an 800 points chainsaw, spending the rest of the time as a bedside table in Jiang Lai’s room.
A real waste of resources.
"Why don’t you see if there are any cheap appliances in the points store? Buy some to avoid wasting this big battery."
"This isn’t a battery; it’s a high-tech mobile power source that can be upgraded."
"As you said, the more it’s used, the faster it upgrades. How much power can I consume just chopping a few trees?"
It makes sense.
But somehow it doesn’t seem right.
Late at night, Little Buding began to browse the points store, starting directly from the cheap options.
His credit score was quite high, enabling him to buy items worth up to 100,000 points on credit.
Of course, what was spent had to be repaid.
Jiang Lai currently earns between 8,000 to 10,000 points completing the task of one world.
Thinking about it, it’s quite lucrative.
And indeed, there are plenty of inexpensive appliances, a light bulb costs only five points, while a five-meter piece of iron wire only costs sixteen points.
There’s also a converter, the cheapest ones around thirty-something points.
Continuing down, there was even a second-hand mini harvester! And the price was only 1,800 points!!
That’s practically giving it away.
"This one’s nice... this one too... this is really cheap, hehe... how come such good things are available..."
Little Buding stayed awake all night.
The next day, Jiang Lai opened her eyes and was startled to see the room full of stuff, which immediately woke her up.
Mini tiller, mini seeder, mini harvester, weeder, a large barrel of diesel half a person’s height, bags upon bags of unknown items, and over a dozen bulbs strung together, as well as the piles of iron and copper wires in the corner, impossible to ignore...
Finally, outside the house, Jiang Lai even saw a diesel generator!
"President Ding, you’re impressive."
"Wuwuwu..."
Tearful sobs, filled with deep regret and anger, sounded genuinely pitiful.
Jiang Lai couldn’t help but laugh.
"What’s up?"
"Nothing."
"Nothing, then why are you crying?"
"I’m not crying!"
Little Buding wiped at his tears and looked at the overdue bill towering over him, for a moment, having thoughts of despair.
Owing a hundred thousand.
Even if they cut him up and sold him, they couldn’t come up with that much money!
The more he thought about it, the more he regretted it.
His first time trying online shopping, he couldn’t stop himself and nearly went overboard.
Jiang Lai yawned, slowly got up, inspected all the good stuff, then gave Little Buding a piece of advice.
"Take it from someone who’s been there, try not to shop online at night."
"You’ve given me so many goodies, if you don’t get this mission to S-Class, I’ll fight you."
"Why should I pay for your impulsive shopping spree? But calm down, you’ve already bought the stuff; crying is useless. Life is meant to be enjoyed.
Alright, I’m going to try my new gear now."
Jiang Lai eagerly dragged all the machines out.
Yesterday, she had already marked out a plot and cut down the trees on it.
Now she wanted to enclose this plot of land, starting to build a small base capable of resisting external threats.
Beneath the soil were thick wooden stakes, each about as wide as a person and two meters high, circled neatly according to the planned perimeter.
That took Jiang Lai three days.
Afterwards, she wound all the iron wire around the tops of the stakes, densely planting sharp iron wire tips outside.
Still not enough, Jiang Lai connected all the metal nets to electricity using converters.
The mobile power source, when fully charged, could run the electric grid for ten days.
Every time the power ran out, recharging with solar panels speeded up by two times.
And its electricity capacity doubled as well.
Half a month later, the defensive enclosure built by Jiang Lai could now run on electricity twenty-four-seven.
After every use, it only took about an hour to fully charge the mobile power source.
With preparations done, Jiang Lai started cultivating the land.
The spring she capped now flowed straight to the pond.
The once-dry pond was now filled to the brim.
The few small fish she had previously raised were now about palm-sized, with numerous fish fry appearing along the pond edges, roughly numbering close to a thousand.
The spring still gushed water, which certainly couldn’t go to waste.
After preparing the land, Jiang Lai dragged out the large sack of mysterious items and poured it out. It was full of rice seeds.
These rice seeds were hybrid varieties improved by the modern father of rice, different from the miscellaneous ancient grains, with yields about thirty times higher and much better taste.
Jiang Lai planted the rice seeds and then channeled spring water into the rice channels, ensuring sufficient water supply.
Besides rice seeds, Little Buding had also purchased quite a few fruit and vegetable seeds.
Regardless of whether they could be grown, Jiang Lai planted them all, watered them regularly, and left the rest to fate.
After sowing the seeds, Jiang Lai turned her gaze to a vacant spot in the backyard.
All her hard work enclosing it couldn’t go to waste.
So the next day, Jiang Lai crept into a wild boar den.
When she came out, there were six piglets in a basket and a five-hundred-pound wild boar carcass being dragged behind her.
The piglets were all raised in pens, while the big boar was carved into pieces by Jiang Lai.
She had a big appetite, as in her original form, she weighed nearly four hundred pounds, a veritable ancient giant wolf, allowing her to eat more than twenty pounds of meat a day.
Plus, it was winter, so she had no concerns about preserving the pork.
But no matter what, eating too much can become sickening.
