Chapter 226: Saving Twenty Years of Detours
Back at Red Star Farm, Leon waited for a while after returning, relieved to see that Abigail hadn’t come storming back. With his mind at ease, he started preparing dinner.
Dinner was simple. He rinsed the thawed pork, flattened it, coated it in breadcrumbs, and deep-fried it until golden. Then he cut it into pieces and added them to rice. Just like that, a simple pork cutlet rice was done.
Meat always brought a deep sense of satisfaction—far more enjoyable than eating fish. As a meat lover, Leon regretted not going to butcher John earlier to buy some.
After eating his fill, he took a shower, watched some TV, and ended the day. The next morning, sunlight once again drove away his sleepiness. Stepping out of the cabin, he saw it—that familiar green glow that signaled crops were ready to harvest.
“Mature Potato (Harvestable)”
“Mature Cabbage (Harvestable)”
“Mature Tulip (Harvestable)”
Three sections of the field were lit with the system’s ready-to-harvest markers. Especially in the tulip section, Leon could tell without any help from the system—it was already in full bloom.
