Lords of the Heavens

Chapter 83 One-Star Fisherman Card
As it turned out, Li Wei's judgment was correct.

When walking normally, he didn't feel any change from the 10 points of agility, but when he was carrying a full set of equipment and slowly running on a hillside with a slope of about 5 degrees and an uneven surface, the effect became immediately obvious.

He felt that his response to his surroundings was noticeably faster. It was no longer the awkward feeling of seeing something but not being able to react in time. Instead, he felt a wonderful lightness and ease, even though he was expending about the same amount of energy.

Each step landed with such stability and safety, and the exertion of force by each part of the body became more and more harmonious and balanced, as if a greatest common denominator had been found, encompassing all disharmony and contradictions.

So much so that he couldn't help but want to speed up; he wanted to run, he wanted to feel the wind.

And the more you run, the easier it gets; that's true parkour!

Li Wei felt that the parkour he had practiced every night for the past month, the difficulties he had encountered, and the many difficult moves he had to complete, could now be easily handled.

After running a distance, when he checked his attributes again, he was surprised to find that his stamina consumption had actually decreased by about 10%.

This is truly amazing.

The increase in agility can actually affect stamina? And it's quite obvious that his evasion ability has improved, although it's not reflected in the attribute panel.

Or to be more precise, the human body is inherently a whole, but it is now being analyzed and digitized to help people better understand themselves.

Perhaps, this is the true meaning of awakening?
At that moment, Li Wei suddenly felt that he finally had the right to go deep into the mountains and forests to hunt.

But that still isn't enough to hunt black bears...

"Cough cough!"

A pungent smell of smoke wafted over on the wind. Li Wei frowned slightly and quickly walked away. Development always comes at a price.

This is Thomas and Lyon burning lime.

Lime is an essential binding material for constructing stone buildings.

Li Wei was unfamiliar with these things, but Thomas and Lyon were clearly quite experienced. They had even built a new lime kiln this month, obviously speeding things up.

However, building a wall is a huge project.

For the past twenty days, the wall that Thomas was going to build has not even taken shape yet, but it has already made the area around the camp a mess and a chaotic mess.

Fortunately, this should be temporary. Once the wall and some stone buildings are completed, the lime kiln can be removed. Otherwise, he felt it might even affect the farmland.

Moreover, Margaret seems to have been involved in the construction of the wall today; this woman is definitely in cahoots with Thomas.

What was once uncertain, Li Wei is now certain of.

In addition, it seems that Thomas's wall will not be built this month. In fact, Li Wei thinks it would be good if it could be built in another month. He doesn't know how his main quest is calculated.
Is it done in phases?

However, the warehouse and operating room that Lyon is in charge of may be built this month.

"Next month, that unknown risk is very likely to erupt. Penny will be the first to bear the brunt!"

Li Wei looked around at the surrounding mountains and forests, his heart filled with vigilance. He dared not be careless in the slightest. He was now essentially the family's scout and patrolman.

Around 10 a.m. the next day, Li Wei woke up from his sleep, got ready, patrolled around and found nothing unusual, then headed straight for the lower reaches of the stream. He was going to start grinding fishing experience today, to accumulate 500 fishing experience points as soon as possible so that he could get a one-star fisherman card.

To be honest, although he doesn't have the fisherman's profession bonus now, he still has other outstanding examples to follow.

Last autumn, Lyon would get up at dawn every day to go fishing. He used a fish basket and a simple fishing net, and he could catch quite a few fish every day, even some big fish of one-star quality.

Nowadays, Lyon is busy burning lime and building his warehouse every day. He has no time or energy to slack off, so Li Wei took all the dozen or so fish baskets he had woven.

You put them in the day before, and you'll have a harvest the next day, no doubt about it. It's just that the harvest isn't much; they're mostly small fish, weighing a pound, half a pound, or even less than half a pound.

Fortunately, you can always gain 5 to 10 fishing experience points every day.

After putting the fish basket away, Li Wei didn't need to worry about it anymore. He returned to the camp, grabbed his axe, and went to the forest on the east bank of the stream to cut down trees.

Regardless of species or size, anything in the way is cut down. In fact, the west bank of the stream is not suitable for cultivating farmland. There is a hillside there, and further west are mountain ridges, with continuous undulations, and there is no large flat area to be found.

But the situation is different on the east coast.

Li Wei felt that he could cultivate fifty or sixty acres of good paddy fields here.

Moreover, you don't need to donate all of it to your family. You can keep three to five acres of private land for yourself, and the annual output will be a good income. Well, the premise is that you can open up business channels.

Anyway, things are fine as they are for now.

In the days that followed, Li Wei spent his days fishing, cutting down trees, patrolling, preparing for spring planting, weeding the winter wheat, and at night cutting wooden arrows and spears. Occasionally, he would also boil fish glue to make feathered arrows. In addition to his daily training, he was busy from morning till night, but also incredibly fulfilled.

Towards the end of the month, he successfully accumulated 500 fishing experience points and obtained a one-star fisherman card.

[One-Star Fisherman Card: Increases swimming ability by 20%, fishing skills by 20%, and boat handling by 10%]

"So I underestimated it initially. The fisherman profession isn't just a simple agility-based profession. Perhaps we could merge it with the lumberjack card in the future and see how it goes?"

Li Wei was full of anticipation.

Then, on the last day of the month, he took out forty catties of ordinary wheat from the warehouse, intending to use it for planting.

"George, isn't it a bit too early to plant now?"

Fila stopped him, because ordinary wheat can be used to make white bread, and the nearly 1,000 kilograms of wheat harvested last year were not actually consumed much during the past winter.

Fila uses 50% chestnuts, 40% wheat flour, and 10% other ingredients to make grey bread.

She was preparing it specifically for her white bread.

Last month she brought out the white bread recipe, and the need for regular wheat suddenly became urgent.

If she cannot guarantee a supply of white bread twenty times a month for the next six months, then some of her contribution will be made up.

"Mom, don't worry, the winter wheat will be harvested in two months."

Li Wei comforted her, but still insisted on taking the wheat with him. He couldn't even wait for the main quest to be released next month.

Although planting two acres of wheat can occupy a place in the main storyline.

But for some reason, he just didn't trust Thomas, even though according to Penny and Thomas's plan, as long as Li Wei impeached Fila this month, the only winner would be Penny herself.

Therefore, he would rather work harder this month to cultivate the two newly reclaimed acres of farmland.

Once you plant them, half of the year's harvest is practically guaranteed.

With food in hand, one feels secure; if he does indeed remain the head of the family in the future, he will have fewer things to worry about.

Yes, he can no longer act solely out of personal interest; he must now consider the future of his entire family.

Only by managing your household well can you improve your customs clearance score.
