A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 761 It is impossible to lie down

"Is that so? Magic really is selfish." Sophia complained with some disappointment.

It also made me think about why everything in human society is driven by technology, and why we don't see items made of magic.

"Well, not really. It's just that my situation is a little special." Leon explained. Sophia's words seemed a bit like a map cannon, so for her sake, Leon still had to make it clear.

Ordinary people cannot access magical items because there is no need. After all, magical creations often have prerequisites for use or require some materials that ordinary people cannot access to drive them.

But if you have money and channels, it is not impossible to get it. It’s just that for many people, the cost of buying magic items is not proportional to the return.

The system is different. It is specifically designed to serve Lyon and only considers Lyon and the farm.

After all, the recipes and production provided by the system are indeed very convenient, and some restrictions are reasonable. Otherwise, it would not be a farmer system, but a craftsman system.

All the conveniences provided by the system are to help Lyon better develop and build the farm. The development of the farm is the core.

Otherwise, the system would not have received Grandpa's letter, and it would not have been activated until I came to Stardew Valley and officially took over the farm.

"Is that so?" Sophia thought of the automatic clothes drying rack she had seen in the bathroom before. That one did not restrict her use, and she immediately understood.

After all, what she said before was a bit too much. As for magical items, she actually had some, such as the shipping boxes placed in her vineyard.

Basically, every farm or manor of any size will be equipped with this magic item that allows people to complete shipments without leaving their homes. This is also a proof of the popularity of magical creations, although it is only a targeted popularization.

"Okay, don't overthink it. If you really come into contact with magical items, you'll find that most of the time, the things you can use are not as useful as technological creations."

Leon was very sure about this. After all, he was someone who often came into contact with the guardian magician Lasmodes. Not to mention that Abigail, his bedmate, was Lasmodes' disciple. Leon was very clear about a lot of information that ordinary people could not know.

The development of this world has been limited by actual conditions, resulting in many deviations. For example, technology benefits the lives of ordinary people, while magic's basic scope of application is related to resisting the threat of monsters.

Ordinary people can live safely in cities, towns and other areas because they have explorers, magicians and other extraordinary people silently protecting them. If you really think about it, the use of magic items is actually benefiting the people. It’s just that compared to technological creations in life, magic benefits the safety of ordinary people.

Magic and technology each have their own functions.

"Let's not talk about these things that give us a headache. The general trend is that ordinary people like us shouldn't think about them. If you have nothing to do this afternoon, go home early."

Leon took the initiative to end the topic and at the same time persuaded Sophia to leave.

If Sophia had continued to follow her, she might have been unable to help yawning during the afternoon.

Because in the afternoon Lyon was going out to see the moss growing on the trees in the wild, and to start preparing to collect these by-products of the rain of life.

Leon didn't know how much of this new material, which only appeared during special weather conditions, would make up the remaining unlocked recipes. Therefore, he had to prepare a large amount of moss as a strategic reserve. Leon didn't believe that moss would only replace growth hormones and high-end bait recipes, and that it would have a wider range of uses. Who knew if tomorrow's weather cleared up, the moss would quickly wither in the summer sun, costing Leon the opportunity to stockpile it?

"But I don't want to go back." Sophia pouted and retorted, "If I go back, I'll just watch TV, play games, and read comics."

"I'm going out to harvest and collect moss this afternoon. I have to run around in the rain and mud," Leon explained.

"It's okay, I can do it too." Sophia immediately assured.

"No," Leon refused with a straight face. "It's not safe. The roads are slippery in the rain. Besides, I might have to go to some dangerous areas, like the edge of the forest and the northern foothills. There are cliffs on the edge of these places. If you slip, you will be dead. I can't let you take such a risk."

"Then you are not in danger. If two people are together, if one of them encounters an accident, the other can still ask for help." Sophia retorted unconvinced.

"How can you compare with me?" Leon rolled his eyes at Sophia, then showed off his muscular build. "Be good and go back to rest early. And by the way, help me deliver the spicy crayfish recipe to Gus."

"I" Sophia wanted to resist, but when she saw Leon start to frown, she finally nodded obediently and stopped resisting.

"Next time the weather is good and the roads are in good condition, if you want to follow me, I will definitely not stop you. Today's weather is really unsafe. Be good, go back and lie on the sofa, make a cup of hot tea and prepare some snacks. Watching TV and playing games is more comfortable than running around in the mud."

When Leon saw Sophia compromise, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and comforted her.

"You can do this too." Sophia felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this. After all, the danger to herself was actually the same for Leon.

"I can't do that. I still have to work. Wealth doesn't bring me freedom." Leon explained, shaking his head.

Sophia paused as soon as she said "I can". She originally wanted to say that she could support Leon, but it seemed a bit strange to say this, and it would easily destroy the relationship and atmosphere between the two. Sophia was not stupid, but she did not want to encounter such unnecessary embarrassment.

"Go back, and be careful."

Sophia only said half of the words, but Leon had a rough idea of ​​what she wanted to say. However, Leon pretended not to hear it.

It's not that he is against living off his wife, but he doesn't want to lie down so early.

The current pace of life is pretty good and interesting. Running his own farm, improving his skills, and earning a lot of money through his own efforts and struggles, this kind of life is the fulfilling life that Lyon wants.

It is a rare opportunity to come to Stardew Valley and own an industry of his own. If he does not make some achievements, Leon himself will not be able to forgive himself. This is an attitude towards life and a pursuit of self-worth.

At least for now, Lyon is not tired of this busy yet fulfilling life. Maybe one day he really loses the urge to struggle and chooses to lie down. Lyon will consider living off Sophia, but he will not rely on Sophia.

After all, I have a more luxurious queen-level partner on my side. She is truly wealthy and powerful.
