Communicate with furry animals without any barriers, and take the farm to the next level

Chapter 35 Farm Planning
Josh took Big Mike to visit the brand new farm cottage first.

"That's right. Most of the farm cottages have been abandoned for a long time. They will be comfortable to live in if they are properly renovated. The construction team you found is quite good and the houses are very nice." Big Mike praised.

"Yes, I am satisfied too. I just finished it this morning. Mr. Big Mike, you are my first customer." Josh teased.

"Haha, it's my honor." Big Mike's mustache was crooked from laughing, and he quietly straightened it.

Josh pretended not to see it, smiled secretly, turned around and made a glass of honey lemon water for Mr. Big Mike.

"Mr. Big Mike, how about trying it?" Josh handed it to him with a smile, looking forward to his reaction.

"Hmm~ It tastes fresh, sweet and sour and refreshing. Ice cubes and lemon go so well together. Why didn't I realize it before!" Big Mike said in an amazed tone.

"And honey, special honey. Josh, you really know how to enjoy it." Big Mike squinted his eyes and savored it slowly, then took another sip.

"Two nests of bees were found on the farm. This is their work. I'm not extravagant enough to buy these things to eat." Qiao Xi explained. If she didn't have them, she would definitely not be willing to spend the money.

"You have little bee monsters on your farm?" Big Mike grasped the point at once and was extremely surprised.

"Yes, it's in the orchard. We can go and take a look." Mr. Big Mike is trustworthy, and Josh wants to get some advice from him, so he will naturally tell him everything he knows.

"Then let's go, I can't wait to go and see it." Big Mike drank the lemonade in one gulp, savored it deeply, and walked downstairs, not forgetting to signal Josh to come forward and lead the way.

"The bitter sugar fruit forest and the giant lemon fruit forest, the production of these two magical fruits is large but the price is average. They are not popular in the free market. We can find a way to change the crops, or do some rough processing before selling them." Big Mike did not forget to comment while hurriedly walking towards the beehive.

"Wow, this is really a gift from God, a miracle of nature. It takes such skillful hands to build such a beautiful beehive. Oh, my God, this, this is so beautiful." Big Mike looked at the huge beehive and the complementary white-velvet bumblebees and slender-legged wasps. For a moment, he could not express the deepest shock in his heart in words.

"Josh, I want to take back what I said to you before. With these little guys, you don't have to worry about not being able to gain a foothold in the market. Have you already sold attribute honey products?" Big Mike turned to Josh and said seriously.

Josh nodded and was about to speak when he heard Big Mike's voice as if he had come to his senses: "That honey lemonade, right? You didn't just give it to me to try, did you?"

"Yes, Mr. Big Mike, a few days ago, I tried to sell honey lemonade at the Free Market. It was really popular and I have a group of customers who like it very much.

But it's too tiring. Although the profit per cup is high, I can only make so much in a day. Even if I work harder, I can't make much more. I can't make more in a busy day than I can by selling Slender Leg Honey directly." Qiao Xi was a little distressed and wanted to take the opportunity to ask for his advice.

Big Mike frowned slightly and asked Josh, "What do you think Shimmering Farm is?"

Josh was stunned. What else could it be? A farm? She didn't understand what Big Mac meant. "A farm, but you don't have any livestock or servants on this land. You're not running a small business, you're running a farm. And you and your house-elves are living in the courtyard like you don't have that sense of belonging. Josh, don't you think the farm is too empty?"

Mr. Big Mike took a few steps forward, heading towards the farmland, and Josh hurried to catch up.

"Ms. Josh, a farm cannot be maintained by the efforts of one person alone. Do you know about Warcraft labor?" asked Mr. Big Mike.

"Yes, I brought my Brown-headed Vulture back from the Elven Professional Office. There are many wild monsters there who voluntarily sign contracts with humans."

"Not bad," he nodded. "Common mop dogs and rag cats are found in many households. They replace human labor to a certain extent. Some luxury stores even spend huge sums of money hiring Gollum puppets to improve their quality and attract more upscale customers. You can definitely hire some Warcraft laborers to help you with farm work."

"You don't have to worry about the farm or your personal privacy being leaked. Compared to talkative humans, Warcraft laborers who have food and drink will obediently work for you until they are exhausted.

I think you can consider it." Mr. Big Mike turned his head and said to Josh seriously.

Josh had too much stuff in her head and she needed to sort it out, but she knew what Big Mike said made sense and nodded: "I'll think about it."

"Wait, Miss Joshi, you didn't just plant these two crops, did you?" Big Mike looked at the farmland in front of him and was very dissatisfied.

"Uh, yes." Josh was speechless, but she wanted to explain, "It's because I can't handle it alone, so." Mr. Big Mike interrupted her with his hand.

"Ms. Qiao Xi, why is a farm called a farm? If you only need to cultivate such a small amount of land, there is no need to allocate such a large area for a farm. You need to plan the land utilization rate reasonably, calculate the growth cycle of each crop, plant more crops, and raise more livestock."

Mr. Big Mike talked a lot, and Josh felt that he hadn't even slept in the new house yet, and a bigger challenge was coming. His mind was full of parts of the farm that needed to be optimized.

Seeing Josh's eyes almost popping out, Big Mike chuckled and said helplessly: "Miss Josh, I'm sorry, my occupational disease has come on. You can keep my opinions that are useful, but don't let them affect your thinking if they are useless. Just do everything according to your ideas." He couldn't stop talking and put out too many personal opinions, which were too messy for Josh, the new farmer.

"Thank you, Mr. Big Mike. There are indeed many problems on the farm. If you hadn't advised me, I might still be complacent in my ivory tower, thinking that I was doing quite well. You have enlightened me, and I will keep working hard." Josh felt a little ashamed, thinking that she had failed Mr. Big Mike's expectations when he first encouraged her to go south.

"No, no, no, Miss Joshi, you can't feel sorry for yourself. I can say all this because I think Shimmering Light Farm is great and has a bright future. I hope it will get even better. As I said, I have confidence in you. You're a strong child and you can do it."

There were tears in Josh's eyes. Big Mike's advice was a precious treasure to her.
