Chapter 22 - Could It Be The Gold Again?
Leaving the hapless landlord behind, Su Ming drove as fast as he could to the city center.
He planned to continue farming!
Using the System, Su Ming discovered an undeniable fascination with farming.
The vast variety of crops that could be cultivated held his attention.
Uncertainty surrounded the outcome of his plantings.
Regardless, even if they all turned into gold, considerable wealth would flow in.
Nevertheless, Su Ming held firm in his belief that the System wouldn't be as straightforward and mundane.
Each endeavor promised a distinct surprise.
As Su Ming returned, the sky had darkened slightly.
Yet, given the city's central location, towering edifices illuminated the area, and streetlights lined the roads.
It didn't appear dark in the least.
He cleared a small plot of land, and the System automatically recycled the weeds.
Su Ming retrieved some cucumber seeds from the warehouse.
The process had become second nature to him.
Su Ming observed that during planting, the System would promptly alert him.
If the plant spacing was too cramped, the System signaled planting failure.
This was sensible; after all, every plant required adequate space to thrive.
“Ding! Cucumber successfully planted! Harvest time: 18 hours!”
Following that, he applied fertilizer and water with practiced precision.
Surveying the now-tidy land, Su Ming felt content and headed to the faucet to wash up.
Seated in a rocking chair, he observed the bustling nighttime city.
Nevertheless, Su Ming wrestled with a quandary.
Given his newfound billionaire status, residing in the old houses was undoubtedly no longer an option.
Should he buy a villa?
However, Su Ming quickly dismissed the idea.
It wasn't that he lacked the funds; rather, there was simply no necessity for it.
At the moment, his entire focus remained on those two acres.
Nevertheless, adjacent to the two acres of land, the System had conjured a quaint thatched cottage into existence.
It seemed prudent to capitalize on this piece of land by constructing a modest dwelling. As long as the amenities were in place, it would suffice.
This arrangement would significantly enhance his daily life.
Following a meal at the nearby mall, Su Ming promptly headed to Appliances City and acquired a high-end computer.
After all, it was a System-generated thatched cottage, complete with readily available internet access boasting exceptional speed.
Su Ming commenced gaming.
After a full day of work, Su Ming felt somewhat fatigued and soon drifted into slumber.
When he awoke the next morning, it was nearly noon.
Armed with his previous experience, Su Ming took his time waking up Yuvyuv and proceeded to inspect what was sprouting from the earth.
Due to the System's automatic concealment, Su Ming could only discern the ordinary rice seedlings from a distance.
Being in a temperate southern city, the climate was ideal for rice cultivation.
Growing rice wouldn't draw any undue attention.
Even if others ventured onto the land, they wouldn't be able to disturb the crops Su Ming had planted.
This was a privilege granted to Su Ming and a safeguard provided by the System for his land.
Upon stepping onto the soil, Su Ming's first order of business was to check the cucumbers he had planted the previous day.
The cucumber vines had already flourished, winding their way up the System's automatically generated shelves, and most were now in full bloom.
Su Ming nodded in contentment, then turned his attention to the tomatoes, noting that they were already ripe.
The tomato was shining golden under the sun.
Su Ming frowned slightly.
Was it gold again?
Su Ming sighed.
