Ranch Story: Start Over

Feng Ling was very grateful to the goddess sister for suddenly asking for these precious treasures to improve the strength of his ranch, but the doubts in his heart still existed, so he asked carefully:

"Sister Goddess, you asked for this ring. Why did you give it to me?"

"It's not a gift for free. This is the symbol of the spokesperson. People who have made outstanding seasonal contributions in various fields in this world have such a ring. In addition to increasing production, the energy gradually expands and has many special effects.

Of course, the power of the gods will also be increased, but because it is too difficult to make and requires a lot of merit, we as gods will not give it away casually. We also need power feedback. If the feedback is insufficient, we will take it back. "

The goddess sister's words also told Feng Ling very intuitively that if you fail to catch the eyes of the gods, the gods will take back what they have given you.

Feng Ling still cares a lot about the God-given ring. Just a 10% increase in production in that autumn and a 10% increase in the amount of refining materials can make the ranch's sweet potato production soar, not to mention the preparation to refine 250 tons of iron ore into 25 tons of concentrated steel.

"I understand, goddess sister, don't worry. In two days, on the fifth day of this season, the first batch of sweet potatoes will be harvested."

"Are you planting sweet potatoes this time? Wouldn't it be hard to harvest them since they grow underground?"

Although the goddess sister is a bit of a germaphobe when it comes to things that grow underground, but based on the belief that Feng Ling's seeds are of the highest quality, the goddess sister still did not show any expression of disgust.

"No, they grow on the ground. And they are different from the regular ones. I only harvest one at a time from a piece of farmland I cultivate. Quality is more important than quantity."

The crops grown in Feng Ling's Morning Breeze Ranch seem to produce only one per piece of farmland, but as the essence, they have never disappointed. However, these characteristics are always different from the past.

"Goddess sister, do you eat melon seeds?"

"?"

"I see you're bored. Why don't I send you a large batch of sunflower seeds when they're ripe? These are all top grade, too."

The goddess sister circled Feng Ling twice and praised:

"Feng Ling, Feng Ling, although I don't know what you did in the Mechanical Civilization Continent, I always feel that it was a very correct decision for me to rescue you that day. Remember, you must send delicious food to me in the future."

"No problem, goddess sister. I'm leaving then?"

"Well, go ahead and do your work. I'll bring Xiao Ling'er in."

As he felt dizzy, Feng Ling was teleported back to reality by the goddess. Looking at Hua Xiaoling beside him, she had also fallen into a state of meditation. Apparently, she had gone to see the goddess just like Feng Ling.

"Mr. Qian, here I come again!"

"Feng boy, you have been running to me very diligently recently."

"I have to be diligent. Five first-level alchemy furnaces just arrived at the ranch today. I need to modify them, which requires a lot of ore."

After saying that, Feng Ling took out a few bottles of wine bought from the vineyard winery in the town from his pocket and placed them in front of Mr. Qian. He also took out a bag of peanuts and a shiny salt-baked chicken.

Old Qian's eyes lit up. This boy is really honest and more capable than others.

But this kid is so smart, and now he suddenly does this, showing his kindness for no reason, he must be a traitor or a thief.

"Mr. Qian, what's that look in your eyes? Don't look at me like that. I just came here to bring you some food. Please accept it as a small token of my appreciation. Hehehe."

"Others give valuable gifts, but you only give ordinary things. Well, you understand my thoughts, so I think it's worth giving you the snuff bottle."

"This is my homemade Meizhou salt-baked chicken, one of the specialties from the mechanical civilization world."

Feng Ling came this time mainly to thank the old man for the gift. He had been thinking about what to give, but after thinking about it, he realized that the premium agricultural products were almost sold out, and it would be troublesome to give more. The premium sweet potatoes have not been produced yet, so he can only rub them by hand.

There were a lot of things to rub by hand, and he asked many people about Mr. Qian's information, but got almost no useful information. However, Feng Ling was not discouraged. Recalling the plot on TV, Feng Ling regarded the mysterious Mr. Qian as a hermit master. Since he was a hermit master, he had to present him with a roast chicken.

At the beginning, the chef of the original world taught Feng Ling a series of recipes, and Feng Ling wrote them all down. Now, with Professor Dart's magical cooking skills, Feng Ling has a deeper understanding of the cooking skills of the original world.

So after careful consideration, Feng Ling finally took out the Meizhou salt-baked chicken as a main dish to please Mr. Qian.

Thinking back on the entire process of making the salt-baked chicken that day, in addition to the complicated seasoning configuration and the changing proportions of magic mixing, as well as the control of the cooking temperature, Feng Ling failed seven times before he made a Meizhou salt-baked chicken that he felt was suitable for the table. The salt-baked chicken that was thrown away has been regarded as a delicacy by others, but Feng Ling was still not satisfied.

The moment you open the steamer, the aroma fills the air and the whole kitchen is filled with a rich and intoxicating fragrance.

Guests who wanted to taste the food were flocking outside the house. Everyone knew Feng Ling's rules. As a food taster, everyone was free, but they only had to use one chopstick. However, this one chopstick was enough to satisfy everyone.

The food tasting time was in the afternoon that day, so there weren't many people. But when people heard that Feng Ling had released a new dish, all the nearby shops immediately closed down and all went to Dart Restaurant.

In just three minutes, even if each person only used one chopstick, the salt-baked chicken would quickly become a pile of bones. However, some people did not even leave the bones, and did not care about the ridicule of others, and just finished it.

There is no other way. Feng Ling's trial time for new dishes is completely random and there is no fixed number. So he is very satisfied to have the opportunity to eat. Therefore, several gourmet diners have become regular customers of Dart Restaurant and have become tasters in disguise.

Old Qian took the chopsticks handed to him by Feng Ling and watched Feng Ling carefully pour himself a cup of wine with the wine jug. The crystal purple color was glowing with amber light.

"This is the wine from Dick's vineyard in town. This smell is still familiar. It's been a long time since that old guy came to my place. Ever since he got addicted to alcohol, I don't know if he still beats his wife."

"Any gossip?"

Seeing Feng Ling approaching him, the old man knew Feng Ling's little thoughts, so he pushed Feng Ling's head over and said with a smile:

"Don't be so nosy, kid. Come, have a drink. Their wine is really good."

He clinked glasses with Mr. Qian in tacit understanding, and both of them drank the wine.

It was Feng Ling's first time to drink the wine from the Dick family. He took a sip from the glass and was intoxicated by the aroma and smooth taste. Feng Ling decisively launched the detection technique. The wine tasted so good that it made him salivate.

Dick's wine (ordinary):

Increases mana recovery speed by 8%

Increase happiness by 10 (full happiness is 100)

Comment: Compared with the wine brewing recipe of the system, theirs is nothing. Master, do you want it? You can take it home for only 50 merit points.

"System! You just want to advertise to me and cheat me of my merit points every day!"

"Master, the 50 is just the ordinary grade. There are also 100 million premium grade, 200 million special grade, and 500 million special grade formulas. Do you have any ideas?"

"roll roll roll!"

Feng Ling angrily told the system to get lost, saying that it was making fun of him when he was so poor.

Normally, fine wine goes well with roast chicken, but Feng Ling doesn't have that many resources to brew fine liquor right now, so he can make do with this wine.

Looking at Mr. Qian tasting the food, he exclaimed:

"What a great Meizhou salt-baked chicken! Rich in flavor, with crisp skin and smooth meat, slightly yellow in color, and fresh bones and meat. One bite is so delicious, and paired with this fine grape wine, I wouldn't trade this for anything."

Looking at Mr. Qian's leisurely expression, Feng Ling quickly told him some interesting stories and characteristics about Meizhou salt-baked chicken. Soon, the relationship between the old and the young became closer.
