Blending of Planes: I am leisurely farming

Andy is an old farmer in Stardew Valley, with messy gray hair and an equally gray beard. His skin is tanned by the sun, and wrinkles are deeply carved on his face, like the long-lasting gullies in the fields.

Andy's farm is located in the southwest of the town, close to the remote dense forest in the south. It is separated from Marnie's ranch by a lake. It belongs to the remote area of ​​the town. Therefore, he does not communicate much with the town. He has always been guarding his own piece of land. He has no relatives alive and is a lonely old man.

His farm consists of a dilapidated cabin and a wooden fence. Farm tools and hay are hung on the exterior wall of the cabin, and discarded beer bottles and plastic bags are randomly thrown on the ridges of the fields, making it look messy and disorderly.

At this time, he was wearing clothes with the Joja Group logo printed on them, and his gray hair was also covered by a Joja hat.

"Andy, how are you doing these days?" Lewis was the first to greet Andy who was turning the soil in the field.

"Lewis, why do you have time to come to my place when you are not hanging out with Marnie?" Andy stopped what he was doing and wiped his forehead with his wrinkled hands. There was black dirt mixed in his thick nails.

Faced with Andy who didn't give him any face, Lewis was stunned for a moment, but he quickly regained his demeanor as the mayor and didn't take it too seriously.

He smiled, pointed to Sean next to him and said, "I came here today because of this young Mr. Sean. He has a new fertilizer and wants to find a few farmers in town to try out its effects. I think your place is quite suitable."

After listening to Lewis' words, Andy turned to look at Sean, looked him up and down, then frowned and said, "New fertilizer? Why should I try it? You want to use my field as a test subject!"

His tone became more serious. "You didn't think of me when you had the chance to benefit from it, but now you want to use my fields for experiments? Ah!"

His tone was excited, and he pointed his finger at Lewis, his expression becoming more and more ferocious: "Tell me what you have done since you became the mayor! Have you built the road as promised? Where is the buyer as promised?"

Lewis remained silent.

"If it weren't for the cheap fertilizer and seeds from the Joja Company, I would have died long ago! Have you ever come to see me, old man? I'm always at Marnie's place~"

Andy's emotions became more and more excited. Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a violent cough. He bent down, supported his hands on his knees, and coughed until his face turned red.

After a while, Andy's cough gradually subsided. He raised his head, with a trace of fatigue and helplessness in his eyes.

It's not easy for everyone. Sean sighed as he watched Andy vent out his anger from those poor days and feel a little better.

"Grandpa Andy, do you still recognize me? Little Sean." For this lonely and stubborn old man, you still have to play the emotional card, "At that time, my grandfather kept discussing planting methods with you, do you remember?"

"Little Sean? Are you old Sean's grandson?" Andy's voice trembled a little.

"Yes, I am old Oak's grandson. My grandfather has always admired you and said that you are the most experienced farmer he has ever met. He also often mentioned you to me, saying that your planting method is unique and effective. So when I formulated a new type of fertilizer, I thought about looking for your advice." Sean told white lies everywhere. Facing this stubborn farmer who was living in poverty, he still wanted to give him a hand.

"This is a new type of fertilizer I formulated after many experiments and improvements. It uses the latest biotechnology and can increase crop yields and quality while reducing pollution to the environment. I hope you can give it a try and see how it works on your fields." Strike while the iron is hot, Sean quickly took out a bag of fertilizer samples from his backpack and handed it to Andy.

"I would like to rent half an acre of land for experiments. The crops produced by the land will be purchased by me at the market price. If the output is lower than the average output, I will make up the difference, so you won't suffer any losses."

Sean continued to explain: "As compensation for renting the land, I will pay 200G first. The remaining 300G will be kept by Mayor Lewis. When the lease expires and we get the fertilizer test data, we will pay again. I only need you to use your rich planting experience to figure out the best way to use the fertilizer. I will also provide my own records of fertilizer use as a reference, and you can decide what crops to plant."

Andy listened to Sean's explanation and was silent for a moment, as if he was weighing the pros and cons. The conditions Sean proposed were quite generous, and such conditions really made poor Andy very excited.

He gritted his teeth and said, "I'll trust you just once, Lewis!" He shouted to the mayor.

In this way, Sean and Andy signed the commission under the witness of Lewis.
