Chapter 14: A New Plan

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

This vitality capsule was the one Zhang Feng had given Li Wei, but he did not eat it for a simple reason. The vitality capsule did not have much advantage compared to the carrots on his farm.

However, it has good value. At the very least, everyone recognized it as the “hard currency,” more useful than the empire’s currency anywhere. Therefore, he had not been in a hurry to eat it.

Now was the time to put it to good use since he did not have much money. As expected, a smile bloomed on Han Chong’s face when he saw the vitality capsule.

“Ah, buddy, I didn’t expect you to be able to afford this. Alright, I’ll take it!” Han Chong, born in a mafia family, naturally did not lack money.

He was also in a hurry to replenish his vitality. However, unfortunately, there have been a lot of fluctuations in the market recently. Hence it was difficult to get any products that could improve vitality. However, seeing that Li Wei dared to use this item as a bet, Han Chong was naturally willing to accept it.

Li Wei threw the box over and said meaningfully, “1:100. Don’t forget.”

Han Chong revealed the smile of a profiteer and only paid attention to grabbing the box.

“Of course! Why don’t you ask around whether the Han family had ever cheated? It was just a million if you won the bet. No problem!”

His words did not sound sincere. In the eyes of Han Chong and the other gamblers, for Li Wei to survive the first round was already a problem, not to mention winning the competition. Therefore, this vitality capsule was a free gift. Han Chong’s eyes narrowed as he smiled. The others were discussing in low voices.

“Wow! Bet that he would win the competition? Is Li Wei crazy?”

“D*mn, I really can’t understand this guy! What makes him so confident?”

He should not do this even if he has a big ego. Vitality capsules are such precious things, and he wants to bet with it on an unwinnable gamble?”

“This is crazy! Li Wei is crazy!”

“…”

Li Wei’s looked expressionless when he heard these questioning voices. However, he was secretly overjoyed because Han Chong had accepted his offer. He would get one million bucks once he won the Fist of Hope competition, which would be the starting capital for his system farm.

Li Wei could not help but feel a little proud as he had prepared those words in advance to provoke Han Chong. With the reputation of Han Chong’s family, this sum of money was undoubtedly going into his bag.

Zhang Feng almost fell from the stairs after knowing this, “Buddy, though I had bet on you losing, you can’t take revenge on me by punishing yourself, right?”

Li Wei looked at the fatty and said, in a bad mood, “Are you done? I’d pay you back if you were upset about the capsule after I’ve gotten the money.”

Li Wei’s statement sounded a bit unreasonable. After all, it was a precious gift from Zhang Feng. However, that was not the point here. Did the fatty secretly bet that he would lose? Zhang Feng was embarrassed to respond.

“Sigh, it doesn’t matter. What I gave you was yours anyway. I won’t object to you using it however you want. I just don’t know why you are doing this.”

Zhang Feng did not care much. At most, he would not be able to increase his 0.1 vitality. On the other hand, there was nothing bad about going to a mediocre university with his buddy. The two buddies being together was more important to him. However, he did not understand why Li Wei wanted to do this.

“You’ll find out in three days.” Li Wei remained mysterious and would not say anything no matter how Zhang Feng asked.

At night, Li Wei returned to the system’s farm as usual in the dormitory. He first tidied up the leftover carrot stems from before. Then, he began to plan his farm with the help of the windmill.

Now that the carrots were harvested, whether the remaining ones could grow into seeds was still a question. However, unfortunately, there was nothing left to grow on the farm.

He only had around 600 bucks in his wallet. He could buy some relatively cheap seeds with this money. For example, the Level 1 [cabbage], [tomato], and so on. However, the problem was that only four bags of fertilizer were left.

Carrots were one of the easier crops to grow. However, they would need at least six bags of fertilizer. In other words, even if Li Wei could buy the seeds, he could not afford all the fertilizer needed for the new crops. Moreover, he still had to live, so 600 Empire Dollars was undoubtedly insufficient.

“Luckily, Han Chong accepted the bet. I’ll make this place brand new when I get the money.”

As Li Wei envisaged, after receiving a large sum of money, he would first cultivate more farmland, ensuring that more than two crops could be planted simultaneously so that the number of crops would be more plants than the carrots.

In addition, when his farm was upgraded to Level 2, the function of [chicken farm] would be unlocked. He also wanted to start raising livestock and cultivate some chicken and duck eggs. In short, this was the direction of his next stage of work.

“Okay, let’s do some field planning.” Li Wei walked a few rounds around his farm.

1 mu of land seemed to be very large, about 666 square meters. However, in reality, based on his earlier assumption, the use of this land was very limited. This was because the 2 plots of farmland alone occupied nearly half of the land.

The pasture covered 100 square meters, while the windmill and the warehouse covered another 100 square meters. However, the chicken and duck farm rewarded by the system was not small either. It was about 80 square meters and was located behind the warehouse. The structure was made of stainless steel, with more than a dozen large iron mesh cages inside.

Walking in, one would realize that it was extremely crowded. There were only about 60 square meters of space left. It would be fine to raise chickens and ducks in this area, provided that there were not many of them.

It would be a problem if there were more than 10 each because besides giving the chickens and ducks enough space to move, Li Wei would also have to consider the hygienic issue. The air would worsen if the place were too small. Moreover, once the livestock got sick, they would be particularly infectious. It would be a complete annihilation by then.

‘Sigh, it’s so hard to be a farm owner. I have to think about everything in advance…’

If Li Wei were to breed chickens and ducks, he would need more than 10 of them. Finally, he scratched his head and noticed the big issue.

Hence, he called for the shop panel to see if there was a solution. After studying it for a while, he found two methods. The first was to purchase land directly. In the system, the farm was an “infinite world.”

It was beautiful scenery, no matter which angle one looked at it. There was also a majestic mountain a few thousand meters away. However, Li Wei could only use and move freely within this 1 mu of land. An invisible wall was blocking him at the edge of the limited area.

If he wanted to expand his farm, he would have to purchase land from the system store. In that case, the invisible wall would disappear along with the area of land purchased.

However, if he purchased another dozen square meters, the chickens and ducks would have a larger activity area in the future. Therefore, the risk of illness would also be reduced.

Unfortunately, when Li Wei saw the price per square meter of land, he immediately dismissed this concept.

‘F*ck! It’s that expensive?’

The price for each square meter was 10,000 Empire Dollars! It was almost as expensive as a vitality capsule. Even if Li Wei returned three days later, he could only afford 100 square meters. It was a sky-high price. Each inch of land was worth an inch of gold.

Li Wei immediately turned the page about land away. The price gave him heartache. Meanwhile, the second method was to make reasonable arrangements, which was more cost-effective than the first. However, it was also much more troublesome.

Disinfectants, water pipes, animal disease prevention vaccines, temperature-control light boxes, etc., each of them was essential. Li Wei did a quick calculation. The entire set would cost him 5,000 Empire Dollars.

Furthermore, the chickens and ducks cost 500 Empire Dollars each. He wanted to buy 10 each. Therefore, in total, he had spent 15,000 Empire Dollars.

Besides, he also needed seeds and fertilizers for both farms and new farm equipment. The estimated total was around 5,000 Empire Dollars. All in all, he ended at least 20,000 Empire Dollars, not a single cent less.

Although the cost was high, this was already the most economical outcome for Li Wei. On the one hand, vegetables were the cheapest, the price-performance ratio was the highest, and the energy consumed was limited. However, on the other hand, it was the “cornerstone” of his vitality that had to exist for a long time.

In addition, breeding the chickens and ducks was also a must because the vitality they could provide was higher than vegetables. This was a must to increase his vitality by leaps and bounds.

Li Wei wrote the detailed plan with chalk on the blackboard outside the warehouse. Now that he had a plan in place, all that was left was to wait for the Fist of Hope Competition.
