A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 153 You are very happy today

"Life-saving Burger (Dish): A portable snack for explorers. It quickly replenishes stamina and provides a six-hour Wild Gathering Level +3 bonus. Required: 1 piece of bread (dish), 1 cave carrot, and 1 eggplant."

Leon didn't remember how many trees he had cut down, but he finally heard the system's prompt.

Although the content of the prompt is still serious nonsense, at least the wild collection has been upgraded and new recipes have been unlocked, which is a good thing. If the system is willing to add drama, then so be it. After all, you are the beneficiary.

Lyon took a look at the logging harvest in his backpack: 480 pieces of wood, 113 drops of sap, 3 pine cones, 4 maple seeds, and 6 acorns.

The drop rate of tree species is very high, especially acorns. These things can grow new oak trees when planted, and these oak trees can be conveniently planted in the same area by Lyon, allowing Lyon to stockpile a large amount of oak resin.

In this way, Lyon will be able to mass-produce small barrels in the future to recreate the legend of Maotai Town.

Continuing to swing the axe, Leon planned to cut down all the trees on the farm before dark, so that it would be easier for him to plan the farm.

Although the logging process was boring, the large amount of material gained still motivated Lyon. When the wood in his backpack reached the upper limit of 999 and the extra wood began to occupy the second grid of the backpack, Lyon realized for the first time that there was an upper limit to the number of stacking in the system backpack in reality.

However, these extra slots did not have much impact on Lyon. After all, a 24-slot backpack was not small, especially since Lyon did not carry too many things with him. Even if the wood occupied the third and fourth slots, there were still more than a dozen empty slots.

What made Lyon regretful was that he had cut down all the trees on the farm before dark, but he still did not receive any notification from the system about upgrading the wild harvest. Helplessly, Lyon had to change his position and went out of the farm to the remote forest in the north to cut down wild trees for more than an hour before he heard the system upgrade reminder.

"Long periods of logging have given you a new understanding of wild mining techniques, and your wild mining level has risen by one level.

During your wild foraging, you noticed that in addition to collecting wood, the resin produced by trees themselves is also a resource. In order to collect resin from various trees, you developed a sap collector, and the crafting recipe for the sap collector has been unlocked.

"Sap Collector: Place it on maple, oak, and pine trees, then wait for it to be filled with sap! Required Materials: Wood*40, Copper Ingot*2."

"Phew, it's finally done."

After reaching the third level of wild harvesting and unlocking the recipe for the sap collector, Leon breathed a sigh of relief.

After putting the axe back into his backpack, Leon couldn't help but rub the sore muscles in his arms.

He had been swinging the axe the entire afternoon. Even with his enhanced physical fitness, he could not withstand such high-intensity logging work. If it were not for his goal of reaching the third level of wild foraging, Lyon would have gone back to lie down and die long ago.

Fortunately, hard work pays off, and he finally achieved the goal of level three wild collection. Lyon’s persistence was not in vain.

After stretching his stiff fingers, Lyon glanced at his watch. The hands were already at seven o'clock.

The sky had become completely dark and the rain had stopped falling, but because dark clouds were still floating in the sky, Leon could not see the stars in the sky.

"hungry."

On the way back to the farm, Leon felt not only the numbness and swelling in his arms, but also hunger. The meager calories from his lunch salad had long since been consumed, and now Leon felt so hungry he could eat a whole cow. Although the rain had stopped, Leon suspected the water in the fire pit hadn't yet receded. Making a fire and cooking on his own would be a hassle. He also needed to consult Emily about the price of the yellow and purple crystals. So, after returning to the cabin, Leon took off his raincoat, changed into clean clothes, and trudged through the mud in his rain boots towards Pelican Town.

There was no other way. The rain made the road muddy. Although bicycles were widely adaptable, they could hardly move on the muddy road after the rain. Lyon relived the feeling of traveling on his own two legs for the first time in a long time.

After half an hour's journey to Pelican Town, Leon immediately took out his bicycle and rode on the well-repaired cobblestone road in Pelican Town, heading straight for Guts's Star Fruit. After parking the bicycle at the door of the bar, he pushed the door open and walked in.

"Gus, give me one of today's recommended dishes!"

As soon as Leon entered the door, he shouted loudly. His voice was so loud that it instantly attracted the attention of almost everyone in the tavern. However, no one thought that Leon's loud noise was noisy. Instead, they looked at Leon happily and helped to make trouble.

"Gus, did you hear that? Our farmer is hungry, go to the kitchen and cook!"

"Hahaha, of course no problem! You must have been busy all day, Leon. Sit down and take a rest. I'll prepare it for you." Gus nodded and greeted Leon with a smile, then turned and went into the kitchen.

"Leon, now that you're full, do you want to have a drink with me? It's my treat!"

In addition to some people Lyon didn't know who were teasing Gus, Lewis, a regular at the tavern, also invited Lyon to have a drink together.

But Leon just glanced at Mani who was sitting opposite Lewis, and waved his hand directly: “Lewis, I really can’t drink much, and you don’t want to see me tomorrow because I fell on the side of the road and froze all night because I drank too much, and then was sent to the hospital by kind people, right?”

“Okay, it’s a good thing not to drink. You are still young, and a healthy body is more important than anything else.” Lewis gave up the idea of ​​getting Leon drunk after hearing this: “Go to the bar and rest, I won’t disturb you.”

"Yeah." Leon nodded, then walked to the bar and sat down, and Emily also came over to chat.

"It seems like you're very happy today. After all, you usually don't come in so ostentatiously."

"Yeah." Leon nodded. He was really happy. After all, the upgrade of Wild Collection unlocked the sap collector, which meant that his winemaking career had taken the first step.

"Is it because you caught a big fish today? I heard from Haley that you caught a giant catfish over two meters long in the river outside our house." Emily continued to ask, and at the same time brought Leon a cup of hot water. After all, the rain had just stopped outside, and Leon must be quite cold when he walked here. Drinking a cup of hot water can relieve the pain.

Leon's heart skipped a beat after hearing Emily's words, but he maintained a calm expression: "I guess so. Besides that, did she say anything else?"

"No, I just said you caught a big fish. Did anything else happen?" Emily asked in confusion.

Leon breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then picked out some answers he could say: “Yes, I gave her the fishing rod to try it out before I caught that fish, and she was almost dragged into the water by that giant catfish.”

　In order to facilitate information search and be lazy, I set the protagonist's system to version 1.5, but the world is a 1.6 world, so the formulas unlocked by skill upgrades may not be compatible with the version. I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you, and I hope you can understand.
