A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 288 Farming Level 2

While chatting, since he had nothing to do anyway, Leon helped Gus clean up some empty plates on the table.

By the time it was past six o'clock, there were basically no tourists in the square, and most of the people who appeared in the square and at the dining tables were residents of the town.

Without any announcement, everyone came here consciously. Almost everyone had a meal ticket in their hands. They laughed and chatted as they placed the meal tickets in front of Gus, and then began to enjoy the remaining food on the table.

Even Lewis, who was so busy during the day that he was hardly seen, and Clint, who had not been seen the entire day, came and brought several boxes of beer and wine glasses with them to join the party.

"It's so lively." Lyon exclaimed as he saw familiar faces all around him.

"This is a tradition after Easter every year." While Gus was greeting everyone, he did not forget to ignore Leon.

"Leon, what performance have you prepared?" Abigail, who came to the scene with her family, came up to Leon and asked.

“Ah?” Leon was stunned for a moment: “What show?”

"It's a performance. Everyone gathers together after dinner to celebrate Easter," Abigail explained, pulling out a flute. "I'm going to play the flute. What about you?"

"I really don't know this." Leon scratched his head awkwardly: "No one told me."

"This is voluntary, not mandatory." Willy on the side comforted Leon: "Actually, the original intention is just to get everyone together to relax and have fun. Just have fun."

When Leon heard this, he couldn't help but look at Abigail.

Abigail stuck out her tongue at Leon, obviously not feeling guilty about not being able to fool him.

"Thank you all for your cooperation and help today. We have had another perfect Easter. The next period will be our own holiday celebration in Pelican Town. Everyone can enjoy the fun of the festival."

Lewis raised the wine glass in his hand and said this, then raised his voice: "Happy Easter! Cheers!"

"Oh! Happy Easter!"

Others also raised their glasses of wine or juice and clinked them in the air to express their holiday wishes.

What followed was a lively scene. While everyone was eating, some people came to the crowd to show off their talents, bringing more fun to everyone, such as Abigail's flute solo, Sam and Sebastian's chorus, Caroline and Robin's duet, Marnie's personal bel canto solo, etc.

Even Gus found an accordion from somewhere and played a melodious tune to match Willy's sailor song, which brought the atmosphere to a climax.

Everyone had a smile on their face, drinking beer without restraint and chatting with their family and friends.

Leon also joined in the fun with the help of Gus and Willy, drinking, bragging and chatting. Everyone had fun and had a great time until after nine o'clock, when they stopped partying.

They helped Gus clear the table, and finally, after everything returned to its usual square appearance, they dispersed and returned to their homes.

"What an interesting festival! Much richer than in the game."

With such a sigh, Lyon fell asleep. When he opened his eyes again, it was already the next day's sunshine.

As usual, they washed up and had breakfast. The breakfast was the egg dish that Gus had specially packed for Leon last night. Although everyone in Pelican Town had worked very hard, the food prepared by Gus was too much and it was impossible to finish it in one meal.

Everyone got some leftover food, but even so, a lot of egg dishes remained uneaten. Lewis and Gus then arranged for these to be sent to the miners in the eastern mining area. After eating and drinking, Leon left the cabin and began watering the crops in the fields.

During this time, Leon noticed the fluorescent light emitted by the ripe green beans.

“Green peas (vegetable): small beans with a crunchy texture.”

Twenty green beans were harvested from the twenty green bean vines clinging to the racks. These green beans were very long, with a basic length of about 60-80 cm. The beans in the pods were full and slightly curved, looking very much like the cowpeas that Lyon was familiar with, or bean pods.

However, it is thicker than cowpea and the yield is far lower than cowpea, with only one seed produced on each plant.

After the picking was finished, Lyon also heard the system prompt.

"Long-term farming work has given you a new understanding of plant cultivation, and your farming level has been raised by one level.

During the harvest process, you have new ideas about farming. You feel that you need a tool that can automatically water the crops to reduce your burden. The sprinkler recipe has been unlocked.

The chickens you raise alongside your farming also gave you ideas. You learned how to make stone fences to prevent the chickens from roaming around, and mayonnaise machines to deal with excess eggs.

"The farming skill has finally been upgraded." Lyon didn't look surprised when he heard this prompt. After all, he didn't upgrade the skills even though he harvested so many potatoes and tulips last time. Now it's finally upgraded from level 1 to level 2, which is reasonable.

Moreover, the formula unlocked at level 2 is not of much help to Leon now. The small watering range of the sprinkler is really not as good as the water pump he is using now.

It's too late to get a stone fence. The chicken coop is currently surrounded by a wooden fence, and Lyon has no intention of replacing it until it's damaged.

As for the mayonnaise machine, Lyon felt no emotion at all. After all, he didn't like mayonnaise as a product. On the other hand, there was no place for mayonnaise in the old community's sacrifice bag. Lyon didn't plan to build this machine in a short time.

"I don't know if it would taste similar to bean sticks if fried."

On the contrary, what Lyon is more concerned about now is what the freshly harvested green beans taste like.

However, it was impossible for Lyon to keep all the green beans. Lyon estimated that the three longest ones should be considered high-quality crops.

They were thrown into the shipping box, and the rest were picked out and put into the backpack as gifts for the spring crop sacrifice package.

The remaining ones were picked and chosen, and the three shortest ones were kept to be fried, and the rest were thrown into the shipping box.

The green bean vines are still in the farmland. As long as they are not pulled out, they will continue to grow and produce new green beans, so Lyon only left enough to stir-fry for one plate.

After finishing the work in the fields, Leon went to the chicken coop to feed and pet the thriving chicks. Now they can no longer be called chicks because these chickens have grown into little fat balls. They are more than twice the size of when they were first bought.

If these chickens were not raised by Lyon himself, Lyon would suspect that these chickens were secretly fed growth hormones because they grew so fast.

After finishing the chicken coop, Lyon did not forget to visit the cave. He did not see the fruit bats bringing him new fruits, and the mushrooms were not yet ready to be harvested, so Lyon turned around and returned to the cabin to take a look at his fortune for the day.

It's neither good nor bad, my fortune is as stable as water. Anyway, I can't go to the mine.

Since he was not lucky enough to go down the mine, Leon did not intend to keep himself idle. He first went to the mailbox to collect 412G from selling fish. Then he packed his backpack without stopping and went straight to the northern exit of the farm.
