Chapter 168 - The System Has Been Updated
Su Ming, busy cleaning the fish pond, was oblivious to the recent developments.
Even if he were aware, he'd likely just smile and shake his head in amusement.
“The System Update is complete!”
“Congratulations, Host, on activating the breeding zone!”
“Now available for raising: chickens, pigs, ducks, geese!”
Out of nowhere, a notification chimed in Su Ming's mind, catching him off guard.
He had completely forgotten about the System Update.
Now, he could raise livestock!
Eagerly, Su Ming checked his data panel:
Farmer: Su Ming.
Level: LV5.
Experience: 11050/20000.
Farm: Level Two.
Livestock: Level One Chickens, Pigs, Ducks, Geese.
Skills: Blessing from Plants, Initial Scanning Ability, Stamina Talent.
As expected, the System had undergone a transformation, introducing a new livestock feature!
And his farm had been upgraded to Level Two.
This was just the starting point, and it was already impressive. The future promised even greater things.
With determination in farming and breeding, success was within reach.
This thought made Su Ming burst into hearty laughter!
Just then, a cellphone ringtone interrupted the moment.
Turning his head, Su Ming noticed it was President Chen's phone.
Caught off guard, President Chen quickly made his way over, washing his hands before apologizing, “Mr. Su, excuse me, I need to take this call.”
“Of course.”
Su Ming responded with an understanding smile.
“What's the matter? Haven't I made it clear that no calls are to come through when I'm with Mr. Su?”
President Chen answered the call, his brow furrowed, his tone firm and reproachful.
A timid voice responded, “My apologies, President. It wasn't intentional. A customer has come to the bank, and they require your personal attention.”
“Who is it?”
President Chen's frown deepened.
In his eyes, no one took precedence over Mr. Su.
“President, a representative from the headquarters has arrived. It would be best if you could meet with them personally.”
“Headquarters!”
President Chen was taken aback.
“Did they mention what it's about?”
“No.”
“I'll return shortly.”
After hanging up, President Chen offered an apologetic smile and said cautiously, “Mr. Su, I'm terribly sorry for the interruption.”
“No problem at all, go ahead with your business.”
Su Ming flashed a smile and gave President Chen a reassuring pat on the shoulder. “No need to worry, there's nothing I need help with at the moment.”
“Much appreciated, Mr. Su.”
President Chen let out a deep sigh of relief, fearful of upsetting Su Ming. He wiped the sweat from his brow and made a swift exit.
Once President Chen was out of sight, Su Ming made his way into the fields.
He was currently tending to two plots of land.
To the left of the house lay the original two-acre plot.
To the right, the three acres gifted to him by Wang Guohui.
Unsure which plot had been designated as the breeding zone, Su Ming decided to inspect each one.
Stepping onto the two-acre plot, a system alert chimed in.
“Breeding zone unlocked. Crops detected within the breeding zone, preventing building construction.”
“Buildings will generate automatically once the breeding zone is cleared of crops!”
Caught off guard by the alert, Su Ming paused. A patch of land in the corner stood out with its distinct color—clearly the breeding zone.
The pears planted there were the only thing keeping the buildings from being erected.
Glancing over, Su Ming noted the pears were nearly ripe.
Once harvested, he planned to clear the breeding zone completely.
He was eager to start raising livestock and build his wealth!
With the System unveiling new features, Su Ming's spirits were high, and he was in no rush.
Then, his stomach growled, reminding him that he had barely eaten all day.
He returned to the villa for a refreshing shower and slipped into fresh clothes. Then, he picked a car from the garage and drove to the night market on the city's east side.
Parking the car along the street, he entered a cozy eatery.
Tonight, Su Ming was in the mood for a late-night snack.
He ordered a hot pot and selected an assortment of food, settling down by the pot, ready to dine.
“Su Ming?”
A voice, filled with surprise, called out.
Su Ming looked up to see Wang Kai.
Wang Kai's face lit up with a broad grin. He clapped Su Ming on the shoulder and took a seat beside him. “What are the odds!”
“You're no beauty, you know.”
Su Ming couldn't resist ribbing him.
Wang Kai couldn't resist either, and landed a punch on Su Ming.
“Why haven't you come to see me lately?”
Su Ming inquired.
After all, Wang Kai worked right next door at the Guoxing Building.
With a sigh and a shake of his head, Wang Kai replied, “By the time I finish work, you're already asleep. And when I start, you're still not awake.”
“That bad, huh?”
Su Ming was taken aback.
“It's out of my hands!” Wang Kai lamented dramatically, as if pondering his destiny.
“Once upon a time, I had a full head of hair, youthful and dashing. Now, it's been ages since I've even thought about shampoo.”
Su Ming listened and couldn't help feeling a bit hopeless.
Too bad he didn't have anything to promote hair growth.
“Sure, you had hair once, but ‘handsome' might be stretching it a bit.”
“I'm going to obliterate you in the name of the moon! Hey, boss, hit me with 10 pounds of crayfish, extra spicy!”
They were old friends.
Even with Su Ming's change in status, Wang Kai showed no signs of estrangement.
Today, Wang Kai had finished work early, with time to spare, and they were delighted to run into each other, enjoying food and drinks.
They were quite content in the shop, basking in the cool breeze of the air conditioner.
Outside, the evening sky was slowly turning to dusk.
Suddenly, a striking figure approached from a distance, clad in a black dress and live-streaming on her phone.
“Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Eastsea City's renowned snack street in the Dongcheng District.”
“There's an array of tasty treats here, all worth trying. If you're visiting Eastsea City, make sure to stop by.”
“And the most famous spot has got to be this one!”
“This is the Hennessy Venom GT!”
She was a food vlogger, showcasing the street's culinary delights.
But then, her eyes caught a glimpse of a sleek sports car, and upon closer inspection, she was dumbfounded.
A globally limited, hundred-million-dollar sports car was right there before her eyes!
Could she be dreaming?
