A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 256 Waiting Mother and Daughter

"Yes, this kind of new technology always has various problems. Let's wait until it is stable before considering it. I will buy one first and try it out. If the effect is good, I will let you know, or you can just use mine." Willy said very generously.

"Okay, then I'll take advantage of you."

Leon agreed with a smile, then took out 800G bills from his pocket and handed them to Willy.

"This is the money for the fiberglass fishing rod. I didn't pay for it before, so I came here to return it to you."

"Aren't you waiting for the auction of your giant catfish? As far as I know, the result should be out in the next two days. You won't forget it, right?" Willy took the money and reminded Leon.

"I haven't forgotten, but I don't think it will fetch much." Lyon complained. After all, there was a catfish in the last shipment. Although it was a little smaller than the giant catfish, it only cost 150G. So Lyon estimated that the giant catfish could be sold for 5-600G at most.

"Don't say that. After all, things are valuable because they are rare. I'll collect the money for the fishing rod first, and then I'll mail the money to you after the auction results are out. By the way, that fiberglass fishing rod is quite useful, right?" Willy comforted Leon, and at the end he did not forget to consult Leon about his experience of using the new fishing rod.

At this point, Leon became excited: "It's very useful. By the way, let me show you a big treasure."

After saying that, Leon took out the mutant carp from his backpack.

The moment this big fish with a very curious shape appeared in Leon's hand, it completely attracted Willy's attention.

"I've never seen such a fish before. Where did you get it?"

"Sewer." Leon replied with a smile.

"Sewer? The legendary fish king? Turns out it's real, hahaha. I didn't expect it to look like this. It's really eye-opening." Willy understood instantly after hearing this, and then excitedly circled around the mutant carp, as if he wanted to record all the details of this sewer fish king from a 365-degree angle.

"I didn't expect you to catch a king fish so quickly, and the one in the sewer. This is amazing. Congratulations, Leon." After admiring it carefully for a long time, Willy reluctantly withdrew his gaze and sighed to Leon.

"It was just the right time. It was also a kind of luck that I caught this fish." Lyon answered sincerely.

After all, if there was no special buff that prevented the first three fish of the day from getting off the hook, plus the void mayonnaise provided by Xiao Hei, Leon was really not sure whether he could attract this mutant carp within the range of the first three fish buff.

"Hahaha, luck is also part of strength. Perhaps you could consider going to a mountain lake on a rainy day to challenge the legendary fish. Remember, that cunning creature only appears on rainy days because it likes to eat frog eggs. So if possible, you can put some frog eggs on the bait to attract its attention more easily."

Willy explained to Leon patiently.

"Let's try it later. Don't be in a hurry." Leon was not sure if he could defeat the legendary fish now, but Willy's suggestion was quite useful. He could make targeted adjustments based on the eating habits of the legendary fish. Maybe he could have some fun with the legendary fish under the buff of not dragging the hook for the first three fish of the day.

"Keep going! I'm rooting for you. When you bring me the other legendary fish, I promised you the gift I'd give you. You won't be disappointed," Willy said, patting Leon's shoulder. "Okay," Leon nodded, then invited Willy, "Let's go to the Stardrop for dinner together?"

"No, I'm not hungry yet. But if you go now, you might still be able to catch the party. After all, the opening of the Calico Desert Line today is a big event. Guts prepared a lot of delicious food in the Stardrop to treat the residents who are attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new bus today."

Willy seemed to think of something when he said this: "By the way, I heard Lewis say that you paid for the repair of the bus, why don't you go to the ribbon-cutting ceremony."

"It's too much trouble." Leon replied, waving his hands. "I don't really like the spotlight, and I'm worried someone will use this to blackmail me into doing more for the community. Even though I don't have high moral standards, I hate unnecessary trouble."

"You're overthinking it. No one will force you to do anything. Pelican Town may not be wealthy, but the residents here are very simple and honest. They will only thank you for your selfless help and won't ask you to do anything. If you really encounter such a situation, you can tell Lewis. I think Lewis will definitely find a way to correct such a resident's distorted thinking."

Willy explained to Leon and also proposed a way to solve this unlikely hidden danger.

"Lewis still cares about these things?" Lyon asked curiously.

"Of course, he is the mayor after all." Willy answered as a matter of course.

"Being the mayor of Pelican Town is quite hard." Leon couldn't help but complain, and then said goodbye to Willy.

"Thank you for telling me this. It made me give up the idea of ​​going to the Stardrop for dinner. I don't want to be blocked by everyone asking about my well-being. I'll take care of my lunch at the farm first."

"You're afraid everyone will get you drunk. Go back. But I still have to say this, Leon. You're already a member of Pelican Town. You have to get along with everyone. Avoiding social situations is not a good idea. I understand you're afraid of trouble this time, but next time if I don't see you on an important holiday, I'm going to go to your farm and personally tie you up."

Looking at Willy's serious and concerned expression, Leon nodded: "Don't worry, I won't miss the town's festival celebrations, so I won't bother you making this extra trip."

"Yeah." Willy said, and then sent Leon out of the house. Looking at Leon's leaving back, he couldn't help but smile and couldn't help but sigh: "What a good guy."

As for Leon, after leaving the beach area, he took a detour to avoid the Stardrop Salon, and took the path that Abigail had taken him last time to the bus stop and headed towards the farm.

Just before entering the Red Star Farm, Leon saw Pam and Penny squatting at the door of the farm. Judging from the sweat on their foreheads, they seemed to have been waiting here for quite some time.

Lyon also knew the reason why the two were waiting here was nothing more than to thank him. Thinking of this, Lyon put the bicycle into his backpack, walked up to the two and spoke.

"Have you two eaten? If not, come and have dinner together. I'm about to make lunch."
