Chapter 20: Test
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Looking at the corn being planted, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but sigh. Now, he finally understood the phrase ‘what is sown is hope’. Wasn’t hope what he was planting now?
If the corn really had the effect he hoped for, he would not have to worry about the development of the territory, but the result would only be known after more than ten hours.
The two bags of corn were quickly planted, but Zhao Hai did not leave the Space Farm. Instead, he looked carefully at the radishes. He did not know how long it would take for them to mature.
At the thought of this, Zhao Hai patted his head and said, “Yeah, I can ask the Space Farm. I remember that there is also this reminder function when playing farm games. How long will it take for the radish to mature?”
The Space Farm notification sounded. “The radish will ripen in three minutes.”
Zhao Hai nodded and muttered, “Three minutes, good. I can harvest the radishes in three minutes. I have to plant more radish seeds.”
Zhao Hai immediately spent 150 gold coins to buy a bag of radish seeds. Now, he only had 350 gold coins left.
However, Zhao Hai did not care. He had already adjusted his development path. He did not want to develop too quickly in the Black Soil Wilderness. Firstly, he did not have the conditions. Secondly, if he developed too quickly, he would definitely be noticed by others. At that time, they would be dead meat. Therefore, his focus should be on the Space Farm.
As long as the level of the Space Farm increased, his development would not be a problem. The Space Farm was his foundation, and he was not planning to sell too many radishes. Just like he had said at the beginning, if he sold too many radishes at once, its price would decrease greatly. At that time, he would be the one to suffer the loss.
Unfortunately, there was no mobile phone, so he could not tell Grimm these thoughts. He only hoped that Grimm did not get a big order this time.
Previously, Zhao Hai had not wanted to rely on the Space Farm because the existence of Space Farm was really too illusory for him. He did not know when it would disappear. If it disappeared and he did not have a stable income source outside, the Buda family would be finished.
But now, it seemed like he had to rely on the Space Farm. With the upgrade in the Space Farm, he could obtain more things. Only then could his territory develop better.
However, he could not relax about the modification of the land outside the Space Farm. If he could not modify the land outside Space, he would have nothing left if the Space Farm really disappeared one day.
He had to calculate every step carefully and do it to the best of his ability. Not only did he have to develop the Space Farm, but he also had to improve the living environment outside.
Leveling up the Space Farm required an increasing amount of money. In the past, when Zhao Hai was playing the farm game, he had two accounts. One was his old account with more than 400 online friends. When playing the farm game, he would steal as much vegetables as he wanted. In the end, he had so much money that he could not use it at all. Gradually, he lost interest.
His second account was a new account. He did not add any friends and was alone. The main reason he opened this account was to see how difficult it was to play the farm game alone.
It was really difficult. In the beginning, it was fine, but when the farm reached level 20 and he opened the ranch, it was the end. His game gold coins were not enough at all. He only had money to either expand the land or upgrade the ranch. However, this made Zhao Hai learn to calculate even more. He carefully calculated the income from the crops and the ranch. Then, he calculated the most suitable animals to raise. Like this, he played the farm game alone.
His current situation was similar to the alternate account’s. He could only level up bit by bit. He had some experience in this, but he still had to use the things in the Space Farm to modify the territory outside as well as get seeds to plant there. His funds were more strained because of this, so he had to carefully calculate every step.
While he was pondering and letting his imagination run wild, the Space Farm’s notification sounded. “The radishes are ripe. Please collect them as soon as possible.” Zhao Hai came back to his senses. He did not immediately collect the radishes. Instead, he looked at them thoughtfully.
The last time, when he had collected the radishes, the leaves had disappeared. He guessed that the Space Farm had treated the leaves as trash. Of course, he could not waste them like this. He still had to keep these things to feed the blue-eyed rabbit.
If he let the Space Farm harvest the radishes according to the previous way, he would not be able to obtain the leaves. If he were to harvest them himself… Looking at the ten acres of radishes, Zhao Hai quickly dispelled his thoughts.
Now, Zhao Hai only hoped that the Space Farm was really as magical as he hoped where he could do anything he wanted.
In the Space Farm, after the plants matured, if he used the Space Farm to harvest them automatically, it would only collect things that could be eaten or used. Things like corn stalks and radish leaves were cleared away as trash. Of course, this was not a problem when playing games, but now that Zhao Hai wanted to use these things to change his life, these things were very important to him.
At the thought of this, Zhao Hai frowned. He was really afraid. If the Space Farm could not collect radishes according to his will, he would be in big trouble.
He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down and said in a low voice, “Collect the radishes. Collect the radish leaves and radishes separately.”
After saying this, Zhao Hai’s heart couldn’t help but thump. He was really afraid that he would fail. If he failed, he would have to think of another way. The only other way he could think of now was to let the slaves enter the space to collect the radishes. Not only would this cause trouble, but it would also increase the chances of the Space Farm being exposed.
The Space Farm reacted. Radishes flew into the basket. After collecting all the radishes, Zhao Hai took a deep breath and walked to the warehouse. He touched the warehouse.
Soon, the items in the warehouse were displayed in front of Zhao Hai. On the first row were the radishes and radish leaves. Behind them were the other materials Zhao Hai had put in the warehouse.
Zhao Hai clenched his fists as he cheered. He really did not expect the Space Farm to give him such a huge surprise. This success not only helped him collect the items, but also represented his further understanding of the Space Farm. It turned out that the Space Farm really listened to him. He could order the Space Farm to do anything.
Ever since the Space Farm appeared, Zhao Hai had a surreal feeling. It was as if he was playing a very real game. He had been controlling the entire Space Farm according to the game’s operating procedures.
However, this success made Zhao Hai understand that this Space Farm had really changed. He was not just an operator in this Space Farm. The settings he had used to play the game might not necessarily work in this Space Farm. It could be said that his control of this Space Farm was deeper than in the game. He might be the god of this Space Farm, a supreme existence.
After a while, Zhao Hai calmed down and looked at the Space Farm. There was nothing else for him to do here, so he left.
Once he left the Space Farm, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but laugh. With its existence, this Black Soil Wilderness could become the largest granary in the entire continent. Just like his hometown, the northern wilderness would become the northern granary. However, he had to use the Space Farm less in the outside world to adapt to the feeling of not having the help of the Space Farm in the future.
Zhao Hai had always been afraid that the Space Farm would disappear one day. Although he had placed the focus of development in the Space Farm now, that was only to allow it to provide him with more help and allow his territory to develop faster. Therefore, he had no choice but to do that. Zhao Hai was a very practical person. He did not believe in things that he could not see or touch. He only believed that the thing in his hand was his. A hundred birds in the forest were not as good as a bird in his hand.
Space Farm was like the Internet on Earth to Zhao Hai. It was too illusory. Although Zhao Hai was an otaku, he never met with those online friends because he did not believe in those illusions.
It was because of this mentality that Zhao Hai tried his best to change things in reality. Only then would he feel at ease.
He did not believe in luck, so when he was on Earth, he never bought lottery tickets. Every cent he earned was earned through his own efforts. He did not believe that anyone would give him money for no reason. He only believed that people could only obtain everything they wanted through their own efforts.
After coming out of the Space Farm, Zhao Hai did not go out. There was too little he could do now. He still needed to think about his future development in the Black Soil Wilderness.
Zhao Hai realized that he had not thought it through when he modified the land today. He had been too anxious and rash. No one could guarantee that no one would come to the Black Soil Wilderness in the future. If someone suddenly came here one day and found that there was something growing on a large area in front of their castle, it would definitely arouse suspicion.
At the thought of this, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but mutter, “Looks like I have to get a deeper understanding of the Black Soil Wilderness tomorrow.” With that, he fell asleep.
