A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 628 Leave it to you

Upon hearing this, Guswilly looked at each other and then shook their heads awkwardly.

"Leon, you know me. I usually stay in the tavern. I spend a lot of time there, and the people I know are all customers who come here to drink and eat. Most of these customers are not short of money, so no one should be willing to add another job to their lives."

“Leon, you know me. I’ve always been a loner and don’t have many friends in town. There’s only you, Gus, and Lewis. The others are all acquaintances. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have thought of asking you to take over these crab pots.”

The two's answers made Leon sigh speechlessly, and then he looked at Emily who had been listening. Gus and Willy also followed Leon's example and cast expectant eyes on Emily.

"Leon, you know me. All my friends are girls. No one should be interested in this job." Emily felt pressured when she saw this, and immediately answered by imitating Willy and Gus's sentences.

"That's troublesome. We're back to square one. We still can't find anyone to do the job."

None of the three of them could find anyone who needed and was willing to work for the extra income, and Willy's face was filled with worry again.

Leon was not disappointed about this. After all, he didn't believe that there was really no one in Pelican Town who was willing to do this. Just because the three of them couldn't find a suitable candidate didn't mean that others couldn't find one.

So Leon immediately took out his cell phone and called Lewis. If the call didn’t go through, he would call Marnie.

Fortunately, Lewis seemed to be at home, so the call was answered quickly.

Leon simply said on the phone that he needed Lewis's help and asked him to come to the Star Fruit to talk. Lewis hung up the phone, left home and rushed towards the Star Fruit.

The distance between the two places was not far, so Lewis quickly pushed the door open and walked towards Lyon.

"Leon, is there anything I can help you with?" Lewis sat down in the empty seat next to Leon, and Gus had asked Emily to prepare a large glass of beer for Lewis.

Lyon repeated to Lewis what he had discussed with Willy and Gus before, and also attached the follow-up methods and plans.

"Finding someone to take over Willy's crab pots is indeed a matter of great importance. After all, if the Joja family really gets involved in this business, there are indeed risks."

Lewis also attaches great importance to this. After all, as the mayor of Pelican Town and one of the people who often deals with the Joja family, he also knows the interests involved, and he is also willing to leave this extra income to the residents of Pelican Town.

"I do have several candidates here. They're all hardworking and need some extra income to supplement their family expenses. I'll help you contact them. As for whether you can convince them, that's up to you."

"Well, no problem, as long as someone chooses it." Willy nodded repeatedly.

"We still need to prepare a purchase price list and a budget for crab pot rentals. Inducing them is the best way to persuade them," Leon reminded him. "That's certainly no problem. There are only so many crab pots to catch, so they're easy to make. And I won't charge a high price for renting these old crab pots. After all, they're old and need regular repairs. A symbolic fee is fine," Willy replied.

"That's your business. With the profits and the support of the initial investment, I'm sure those people won't refuse this job." Leon drank the beer in his glass and then stood up. "I'll go back first. What happens next should have little to do with me."

"Thank you, Leon. You've been a great help. But if you want, I can actually leave some crab pots for you. They're free, you can use them directly. It's actually quite fun to display the crab pots." Willy suggested again before Leon left.

"I will, but I won't argue with them. I'll make some crab cages myself when the time comes." Leon replied with a smile, then waved his hand, left the Stardrop Salon, took out his bicycle, and rode back to the farm.

Inside the bar, Lewis Willie was still drinking. Since the dining peak had passed, Gus could take a break and joked to the drinking Willie.

"Young people are indeed very smart. You hesitated for a long time about something, but Leon solved it in just a few words."

"After all, you are someone who came back from a big city. Naturally, your knowledge and vision are much higher than mine, an old fisherman from Stardew Valley." Willy did not refute, but looked cheerful instead.

"Yes, many things have changed since Leon came to Stardew Valley. It's also a blessing for Pelican Town." Lewis was also quite emotional about this. Because of Leon, many troubles in Pelican Town now have hope of being solved, and Leon has actually won a lot of benefits for Pelican Town, which were big problems that troubled Lewis before.

Next, the three old men drank here and talked about Leon. Although it was strange that three old men were talking about another man's situation, Emily was listening with great interest. Only then did she realize that Leon had done so many meaningful things for Pelican Town.

And this is not bragging, it is all true, which makes Emily feel that Leon is becoming more and more outstanding.

On the other side, Leon returned to the farm. Seeing that the house was dark and without any light, he knew that Abigail had not come. He immediately parked his bicycle against the wall, took out the key, opened the door, returned home, and turned on the light.

He went upstairs to get a new set of clothes, took a shower in the bathroom, and after changing into new clothes, Leon threw his old clothes into the washing machine. While the clothes were being washed, he went out and took back the clothes that had been hung out to dry.

There were his own clothes and Abigail's clothes in it. Leon took them all upstairs and hung them in the closet, which added a bit of daily life atmosphere to the new house.

It was still too early to go to bed, so Leon came to the balcony of the master bedroom and sat on a chair looking at the scenery outside the window. The starry sky of Stardew Valley was always beautiful to look at, and the mountains under the moonlight were also very charming. Leon even saw a wolf howling at the moon on the western cliff.

"Da Huang, Da Huang, when will you be able to break out of your cocoon and be reborn?"

When he saw the wolf, Leon turned around and looked at the ice cube wrapped in rhubarb on the dressing table. It had been almost half a month, and the ice cube showed no signs of melting. Rhubarb was still sleeping in the ice cube, and his size did not seem to have changed at all.

Lyon didn't know when this guy would be able to break out of the ice. He was both looking forward to it and a little reluctant. He was looking forward to seeing the transformation completed and the lively and energetic Da Huang. He was reluctant because Da Huang might have to leave him at that time and fulfill his responsibilities as a son of the wilderness.
