Chapter 130: Forced into the Manor
Chapter 130: Forced into the Manor
"How would I know? They are so wary of us!"
The young man said impatiently, "Okay, stop talking about those old things. Now tell me, what are we going to do with the thirty-nine dollars that damn girl took?
I need the money right now, and she took it away, what should I do? "
The old lady slapped her thighs in anger and said, "What else can I do? Chase him, look for him, what else can I do?
This money is more than half of our money. If we don’t get it back, you can still use it. Our food rations for the second half of the month are also in it.”
The young man spat on the ground twice in anger and said, "It's all your fault. If you didn't want to take advantage of her, how could you let her take the money and run away?
After dragging her for a few times, I left her behind. Have you reported her? The Revolutionary Committee Office is full of my brothers, and they can't handle such a dead woman?"
After the young man finished speaking, he glared at the old lady fiercely twice and ran outside. When the old lady saw the young man leaving, she hurriedly followed him.
After watching this real-time transmission, Shen Jiaren couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "That was a close call."
But when I came here before, I saw the red armband the aunt was wearing. She looked like a leader. The most important thing was that she had told me before that she felt sorry for her daughter, so she wanted to buy food for her.
Shen Jiaren was deeply moved at the time and thought it was great that this world was not so patriarchal. She was so touched that she even gave it a lower price.
As a result, this time, I was reported directly to the Revolutionary Committee Office.
If she hadn't seen the place and the auntie hadn't been talking nonsense to her and felt that something was wrong with her attitude, Shen Jiaren would have walked quickly and might have been blocked in the house and at the mercy of others.
At this moment, Shen Jiaren suddenly felt very fortunate. She was glad that she had to disguise herself every time she came. The other party knew that she was a woman, but did not know what she looked like. Otherwise, if what this man said was true, she would be sent to various committees and offices. Not to mention the things, it was hard to say whether she could keep her innocence.
But what happened this time? I just came here to give you something, if you don't want to buy it, you can just say so, why do you have to deduct my money?
Judging from the conversation between the mother and son just now, something happened at home and they needed money, which led to a shortage of money at home.
But that's not right. When I went to my aunt's house before, I observed that the situation at home was not simple. There was a sofa, a radio, a cabinet and a sewing machine. This family situation did not seem like they needed these thirty or forty things. What happened that made the family spend all their money and end up with no money to solve this incident?
Although Shen Jiaren was very curious and wanted to applaud the female educated youth's friend, she finally asked the brave man to send the man to a farm or prison for reform to prevent him from harming other people again.
But Shen Jiaren thought again, she was forced to stay in the manor, how was she better than others?
Shen Jiaren patted her chest. Before she had time to feel grateful for escaping the disaster, she suddenly remembered, how can she get out?
This place is so remote, who knows whether the old lady and the young man left?
Moreover, this man just mentioned the Revolutionary Committee. What if he mobilized people from the Revolutionary Committee to search?
Shen Jiaren thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a good solution. After all, there was a bug in this manor system: you would come out from the same place you entered. If someone with ulterior motives found out, you would be caught in the trap unless you never went out.
After thinking for a long time, Shen Jiaren couldn't figure out how to break the current situation. She couldn't help but sigh and thought of letting her do whatever she wanted.
Anyway, I can't get out for the time being. The other party will definitely search for me on a large scale, and I don't know how long it will take.
Since she couldn't get out, Shen Jiaren decided to do something in the manor as she hadn't been there for a long time.
Shen Jiaren first went to the planting task field. A new batch of cucumbers had appeared in the field. And judging from the appearance of the seedlings, they probably wouldn't grow any more, after all, no flower buds were seen.
After Shen Jiaren pressed the harvest button, only cucumber seedlings were left in the field.
Because the cucumber vines had been supported by poles, they cannot be pulled out directly. The poles need to be removed first before the plants can be pulled out.
Shen Jiaren returned to the manor, walked into the warehouse of the manor, took a pair of gloves, a shovel, a hoe, and a sickle, and then returned to the mission field.
Shen Jiaren entered the task field, put on gloves, and started working.
After Shen Jiaren got down to the ground, she observed for a while. She realized that she had used bamboo branches to kidnap the child. After all, she had spent a lot of effort to get the branches.
Maybe because it is inside the manor, this branch does not seem to have been eroded by the sun and rain and is quite strong.
Shen Jiaren took a sickle and started cutting the tied branches and cucumber vines wrapped around the poles. After all, it would be difficult to pull out the cucumbers if she didn't cut the vines.
Shen Jiaren took a sickle and started chopping at the seedlings and the branches they were tied to. She chopped and pulled at the same time, and it took her a long time to separate the seedlings from the poles.
After the poles could be pulled out, Shen Jiaren started to pull them out and put the pulled poles aside.
After pulling out the poles, Shen Jiaren started digging the seedlings with a shovel.
For one seedling, Shen Jiaren had to dig with several shovels. The reason was that Shen Jiaren was not strong enough. After one shovel, she could not dig through the roots of the seedling, so she could only dig a few more times.
Shen Jiaren kept jumping and stomping on the shovel. After all the seedlings had been dug up and could be pulled out, Shen Jiaren felt that her feet and hands were no longer her own and her whole body ached.
But seeing that the land had not been cleared yet, Shen Jiaren bent down again and began to pull out the seedlings, trying to pull out all of them.
When pulling out the seedlings, Shen Jiaren was thinking whether to throw them on the roadside or somewhere else. After all, the entire manor belonged to her, so she couldn't just throw them away casually. But Shen Jiaren changed her mind and realized that there were chickens next to her own fields, and the chickens would also eat the seedlings, so she might as well just throw them over there to the chickens.
Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren was pulling and pulling with one hand and throwing with the other hand.
The chickens in the chicken coop flew around and clucked non-stop.
Seeing this, Shen Jiaren couldn't help but laugh. She was also a ghost-fearing person. Now, the disguised chaos had come true.
In a short while, Shen Jiaren had pulled out all the seedlings in the field.
After pulling out the weeds, Shen Jiaren lay down beside the field to rest, and saw an exclamation mark floating on the system interface in the sky again, but this time there was no sound, and this exclamation mark was very similar to the interface when she completed the task before.
Yes, mission completed. This is the notification of mission completed. Shen Jiaren excitedly changed from lying down to sitting, and then clicked on the task interface.
All I saw on the task interface was, "Complete random task."
Manor: Random Mission
Currently growing crops in primary fields: cucumbers
Task status: Completed the recording of the cucumber vine removal action
Task description: Recording of cucumber vine removal
Mission objectives:
According to the recorded action of removing cucumber vines, you can choose to clear them with one click later.
For clearing, you can choose to clear with one click (clear everything on the planting field interface), clear partially (clear some things), etc.
When Shen Jiaren saw this, she couldn't help but smile.
Hey, from now on, when you plant cucumbers, you can plant and harvest them with just one click.
It turns out that the way to play this kind of farming is that you have to manually complete the actions from planting to harvesting whatever you plant, so that the manor system can remember it, and then it can perform batch operations based on your action memory.
No wonder before, when growing rice, you had to plant it yourself, harvest it yourself, hoe the land yourself, and make fertilizer yourself.
However, when planting cucumbers, you don’t have to choose to hoe the ground. You can hoe the ground with one click. But when planting cucumbers, you have to replant them yourself, especially you have to find the seeds yourself.
But the good thing is that there is no pressure to raise seedlings, and they can grow freely.
When Shen Jiaren thought about this, she became curious. Last time, she piled the chicken manure in a place to ferment as fertilizer according to the task instructions, but she hasn't spread the chicken manure on the ground until now. She wondered if the chicken manure was not fermented successfully or what?
Shen Jiaren was very curious.
But no matter how curious Shen Jiaren was, she didn't think too much about it. Instead, she just pressed the button to hoe the ground.
After all, in addition to the cucumbers in the planting task field, there is also rice in the field next to it. Although Shen Jiaren has set up one-click planting and one-click harvesting for the crops in the field next to it, and has also set up cycle sowing, the threshing still has to be done manually.
To be honest, the things in the fields next to the planting fields are relatively easy to deal with, but the difficult part is the things inside the planting task fields.
Because the things planted in the planting task field are either triggered or the seeds are collected by yourself.
But what's strange is that last time Liu Hui gave out a lot of vegetables, only the cucumber triggered the planting task, the others didn't. I don't know if it was because the vegetables didn't grow big enough to leave seeds or what.
Shen Jiaren thought about it but couldn't figure it out. After all, she was curious at the time, but it ended in nothing.
Now the things in the planting task field can be replanted. What should be planted?
There is rice, and plenty of it, after all, it is being planted nearby all the time.
Should I continue to grow cucumbers?
Shen Jiaren thought about it and wondered if she had any cucumbers.
It seems not.
The most common thing drying in the yard is pine cones.
It seems that there is no drying of things in the courtyard, because I didn’t have time to do it, or I wanted to do it but forgot about it. Anyway, I can’t remember doing it.
Then, as for cucumbers, I thought of many things to eat, but I didn't get to eat them because before I had the chance to put them into practice, Zhou Jinbao visited me. Then he came to the town, and then it seemed that he had a disagreement with Liu Hui.
Forget it, I'll just continue planting cucumbers. At worst, I can put them in the warehouse of the planting system. When I have time, I'll ask Sister Hongmei or Aunt Aihua how to grow the cucumbers.
If all else fails, go to the bookstore and see if there are any reference books that can teach you how to make pickles.
Because I remember reading a comment from a blogger on an APP before, saying that the old books taught you how to do it, gave you the steps, gave you what you needed, and taught you how to do it step by step.
Today's books first tell you what you need, let you buy some consumables, and then tell you how to get started. When it comes to the critical moment, you are charged to know the end, and in the end they still don't tell you what the final result will be like. In short, you only have a half-understanding of the whole thing.
Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren felt that she still needed to record it.
He took out his notebook from the manor's system and recorded in it the books he needed to buy at Xinhua Bookstore, including various skill books.
When the time comes, I will ask Sister Hongmei’s sister to pay more attention to it and see if there are any related books.
Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren decided to plant cucumbers, so she clicked on the planting task field, selected one-click hoeing and one-click planting, and chose to plant cucumbers.
After Shen Jiaren finished planting, her biggest thought was that she hoped she could set up the rack with just one click and clear it with just one click, without having to do it herself.
After Shen Jiaren finished her work in the planting mission field, she walked to the chicken coop.
The chickens in the chicken coop, which were scared by me just now and were running around and clucking non-stop, are now walking quietly and leisurely.
Shen Jiaren looked at these chickens and felt something was not right. As far as she remembered, except for the roosters that were raised for a few years, the hens were also raised for a period of time and then killed. It was said that the hens would not lay many eggs and would only eat grains.
How do I set the time for raising the chickens in my own farm?
Shen Jiaren started looking for it in her own system.
I entered the planting system from the manor system, and then entered the breeding interface from the planting system interface. However, the breeding interface currently shows only basic breeding, and the chicken coop is also at the basic level.
All that can be set is the automatic pickup of daily eggs, and I don’t see anything else displayed.
So are these chickens raised like this for generations?
No way? If I kill chickens later, won’t I be able to make up for the number?
So how do we control the number of chickens and how do we choose the breeding time for these chickens?
Shen Jiaren searched the interface for a long time and found that there were no related settings.
Could it be that Shen Jiaren refused to give up because she didn't trigger it?
At that time, the primary construction task of the chicken coop was triggered after I entered the chicken coop.
Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren entered the chicken coop and began to walk around and touch things inside.
But Shen Jiaren walked around for a long time and searched for a long time, but she didn't find any prompts or tasks on this interface.
After seeing this, Shen Jiaren gave up. Could it be that in the short term, once the chicken was eaten, it would be gone and there would be no chance of replenishing it?
Or should we find ways to enrich the species we farm and raise the level of farming tasks?
But this interface doesn’t tell me how to improve the breeding level.
There is none on the planting side, and there is none on the breeding side.
It all depends on triggers and randomness, so how do we do this?
Should I go out now and travel around the world looking for species?
But we can’t enter the mountain now.
At most, you can go to the grain station or supply and marketing cooperative.
But recently, Sister Hongmei and Liu Hui both told me not to go out.
By the way, I can’t even go back to the guesthouse now.
Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren walked out of the chicken coop like a frost-bitten eggplant and walked towards the manor.
