Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

"Lin Xia, you're back from Stardew Valley?" Gotz shouted in surprise when he saw Lin Xia!

"Haha, I went back to Mineral Town this morning. After dealing with some things at home, I came here. I have something to ask you!" Lin Xia said happily.

At this time, Brandon also walked out of his workshop. Seeing Lin Xia, he smiled and said, "You've been there for quite a while. How is it there?"

Gotz also came over and asked Lin Xia to sit down at the table and served them hot tea, which meant that they should sit down and chat slowly!

"It's very big there. The mountains, forests, minerals, etc. are much larger than those in Mineral Town. There are also many kinds of trees. By the way, I brought you a lot of hardwood and seeds of several kinds of trees this time. Gotz, do you want some?"

"Any mahogany seeds?" Goetz asked immediately.

"Yes, but not many. I only got two." Lin Xia took them out from the space and handed them to Gotz. "Do you want to plant them? There are mostly oaks, maples and pine trees there, but not many mahogany trees. These two seeds popped out when I was knocking on a particularly thick and hard-to-cut tree stump!"

"Exploded?" Goetz and Brandon asked in surprise at the same time.

"You guys also find it incredible, right?" Lin Xia said cheerfully, "It's quite strange there. When you chop trees, mow grass, fight monsters, or mine, there's a chance that different things will pop up. Sometimes it's ores, sometimes it's all kinds of seeds, and sometimes there's food!"

The two were stunned. "Besides, there is a wizard there. He has magic and can make a teleportation totem that can instantly make people appear in another place. Isn't that amazing?"

"Have you bought this totem?" Brandon asked with interest.

"No." Lin Xia said frustratedly, "Those teleportation totems are tailored to their terrain, such as the beach totem and forest totem, which are all transferred to their beaches and forests. Even if we buy them, we can't use them!"

"However, I bought another totem, hehe!" Lin Xia said happily again.

"What totem?"

"It's called the Rain Totem. After using it, it will rain the next day. Isn't it magical?"

"Pray for rain?" Goetz and Brandon looked at each other and asked in unison, "What's the point?"

Lin Xia looked at the two with disdain and said, "Of course it's useless to you, but it's quite useful to us old farmers!"

Oh, now I remember, this girl is a farmer. I almost mistook her for an explorer.

Lin Xia mainly talked to the two about various woodworking equipment and furniture that were popular in Stardew Valley. At the same time, she also resold some of the various hardwoods she brought back to the two, and also gave some seeds of various trees to Gotz.

Then she asked Gotz to help her install and connect the feeder she brought back when he was free. Gotz was also very interested and immediately packed up and went to Lin Xia's house.

Before Lin Xia left, she told the two that she and Gray would meet at Dart's hotel in the evening to share their experiences in Stardew Valley with everyone. Anyone interested could go and have a listen.

Gray told Lin Xia about this. Because Mineral Town is small and has few people, few people go out. But usually when someone comes back from a new place, the mayor will ask that person to tell everyone about what he saw and heard outside. This is considered a tradition of Mineral Town.

Gotz knew this very well, only Brandon was relatively unfamiliar with it. However, he was indeed very interested in Stardew Valley and said with a smile that he would go there in the evening.

After Lin Xia took Goetz back, she showed him the feeder and the insect bait box she brought back. She asked in confusion, "Goetz, why can the carpenter over there make such a magical device? Look at this insect bait box. Once it is made, it can produce insect bait continuously without adding anything."

"Well, this should be the principle of the magic circle." After studying it for a while, Gotz pointed to a place with special patterns and said to Lin Xia, "Didn't you say that they have wizards there? And there are all kinds of monsters, weapons, clothes, and jewelry with various attributes? I think, in addition to the magic circle carved by the wizard, the materials with attributes also play a role."

Lin Xia nodded thoughtfully.

After leaving Goetz to connect the feeder for him, Lin Xia went back to the house to take care of his own business.

She also had to process the prey, as well as her own Xirang space. The strawberries and pineapples in it had already been dug up by Lin Xia. During this period of time, Lin Xia had harvested enough strawberries and pineapples, and even sold a batch at the Stardew Valley winter night market, making a lot of money.

Her current Xirang space has increased a little compared to the original one square meter. If the original one square meter is divided into 9 grids, now one small grid has been added. This should be due to the energy provided to the space by the ginseng she planted.

However, after adding this small grid, even though the ginseng continued to grow inside, the space did not increase any more. It seemed that the energy provided by ginseng was limited.

Lin Xia planted 6 ginseng plants at that time. One day in the Xirang is equivalent to 24 years. When Lin Xia participated in the Stardew Valley Night Market on the 15th, the ginseng had grown for a total of 6*24=144 years. At the night market, Lin Xia sold one plant at a high price, and exchanged two plants for several rare seeds from the pig cart owner. As for how rare these seeds are, even the pig cart owner doesn't know what will grow out of these seeds. He only knows that these seeds contain great energy.

In addition to several rare seeds obtained at the night market, Lin Xia also obtained a lot of seeds in the mine, including mixed seeds unique to that place: that is, after growing them, they will be common plants and crops of the four seasons, but it depends on the season you plant. If you sow in spring, you will harvest various crops of spring. The crops of the season you sow will grow and be harvested.

There are also mixed flower seeds, which are similar in nature to mixed seeds, except that the former are flowers of each season, while the latter are common crops of each season.

Then there are several special seeds, such as ancient fruit seeds, gem sweet plum seeds, and winter planting seeds.

That's right, there are four kinds of seeds in Stardew Valley that can be planted and harvested outdoors in winter, namely winter root (similar in appearance to white carrots, a starchy tuberous plant), crystal fruit (a kind of fruit), snow yam, and saffron (also called saffron, a very precious medicine and also a spice).
