Chapter 58: Mission System Upgrade!
Chapter 58: Mission System Upgrade!
Xu Ran has been quite busy lately and hasn't had time to take care of the little ones.
Today is finally a peaceful day, with nothing much to do.
I plan to play with the cat and walk the dog this afternoon.
He then noticed that, without realizing it, Little Gray had grown quite a bit.
The Border Collie, which is a little over four months old, is no longer a tiny puppy, although it is not as big as an adult dog.
It's developing quite quickly.
Little Grey is very active and always understands what Xu Ran means.
They can even help Xu Ran buy things.
Xu Ran put a motion camera on Xiao Hui and said, "Xiao Hui, go to the village store and get me a few bottles of Coke."
At Xu Ran's command, Little Grey immediately rushed out.
Xu Ran had discussed buying things with the shop owner via WeChat, paid for them, and was just waiting to pick them up.
The convenience store doesn't offer delivery service; you have to pick it up yourself.
The road is five kilometers long, quite a distance.
Xu Ran was too lazy to go herself, so she sent Xiao Hui instead.
Wearing a camera can also prevent accidents.
Little Gray was very happy to do this, and even jumped around excitedly.
"Go."
Xu Ran waved his hand, and Little Grey immediately rushed out, heading straight for Nanshan Village.
"Guazi, you come with me, and stay away from people."
"Don't get caught."
Xu Ran let the little wild boar follow along.
He put a red scarf around the wild boar's neck, which made it look a bit more playful.
If you're not good-looking, make up for it with your outfit.
This also means that wild boars are under someone's control, and that they shouldn't be caught by others.
The two little ones ran out.
They both have great endurance and can run five kilometers without much trouble.
On the country road, two little ones ran one after the other.
The elderly people in the village were already used to it.
Everyone knows they are raised on Xu Ran's farm.
Some people think Little Grey is cute and want to feed it, but Little Grey never eats anything from outside, which avoids a lot of trouble.
Soon, Little Gray ran to the convenience store.
It barked at the shopkeeper, who immediately handed it a plastic bag.
It contained what Xu Ran wanted.
Two guests nearby were stunned when they saw this.
"Boss, is this dog here to buy something?"
One of the guests asked.
"Yes, farm dogs, they run errands for their owners."
"I've been here several times already."
The convenience store owner responded.
"Is this dog that smart?"
Upon hearing this, the guest looked at Little Grey and his eyes lit up.
"That's amazing!"
The boss laughed and said, "At first I also thought it was outrageous, but I gradually got used to it."
Little Gray seemed to know that the two people were praising it, and it deliberately lingered in the convenience store for a few seconds while carrying the plastic bag in its mouth.
Seeing that they were not talking, he tilted his head back and ran away.
at the same time.
Inside the courtyard.
There's a worn-out sofa in Xu Ran's yard, which was found during a furniture cleaning and isn't used much.
The kitten likes to rest on it, and occasionally sharpens its claws, which is fine with it.
Now, Xu Ran saw the owl lying on the sofa, its wings slightly spread, striking a pose reminiscent of Ge You's relaxed posture.
He thought he was seeing things.
"What kind of relaxed look is that?"
"Who did you learn from?"
Xu Ran walked over and rubbed the owl's head.
Owls are amazing creatures; they know how to lie flat.
There are many examples of owls that, after being rescued, never leave again; some lie on tables, some on sofas, enjoying life more than people do.
Xu Ran hadn't seen it for a long time, so she went to the kitchen and brought it some meat strips to feed it.
When the guy saw the food, he just moved his head and seemed excited, but his body didn't move at all.
Like a couch potato lying on the sofa.
Xu Ran couldn't help but laugh, and without interfering too much, she fed it the meat strips.
The owl lay comfortably on the sofa, enjoying the meat strip it ate, and then closed its eyes in satisfaction.
This life is wonderful!
Xu Ran had nothing to do today, so she decided to feed the little ones.
I'll go get some more pet milk powder in a bit.
The greatest joy of having a pet lies in the rare moments of leisure.
At that moment, he realized that the tabby cat had disappeared.
Since the cat is free-range, Xu Ran won't interfere too much with the tabby cat's decisions, and certainly won't have it spayed or neutered.
It means I take deworming medication and take baths regularly.
Make sure it is clean.
This little guy has grown up a bit now, and his physical abilities have improved rapidly. He used to be an adorable little kitten, but now he can climb walls and rooftops with the agility of a swallow.
Xu Ran also bought it several large toys.
It includes a two-meter-tall plush Brachiosaurus model with an exceptionally long neck, which is also a large cat tree.
There are also cat scratching posts, cat running rings, and the like.
This guy really enjoys playing.
Now that the little tabby cat has grown up, its physical condition has improved, and its range of activity has gradually expanded.
I used to be afraid to leave the yard, but now I wander around the farm all the time.
I didn't get back until tonight.
Xu Ran didn't pay much attention to it.
Continue feeding the owls.
Not long after, Little Gray and the little wild boar returned, and Xu Ran prepared milk powder and canned meat for them.
They also prepared a basin of milk for the calf.
Watching the little ones eat is very relaxing.
I had a leisurely afternoon like that.
As dinner time approached, Xu Ran went to check on the newly contracted farm.
The land here has long been abandoned and overgrown with weeds.
There's a residential area nearby, mostly ruins, with cabinets and other furniture in a dilapidated state. If you want to use it, you'll have to clean it up properly.
Xu Ran brought up the system and re-bound the farm's area.
This was supposed to be a simple operation, but to Xu Ran's surprise, the system immediately displayed a long string of prompts:
[The host farm's range has been detected to be expanding.]
[Reward: 1 agricultural tractor]
[Agricultural Tractor: A powerful tractor suitable for cultivating large areas of land.]
[Congratulations, host, your mission level experience has increased. Current mission level experience: 30/30.]
[Task function level 3, improved task reward quality. Shop function level 3, added new items.]
Enable the "System Repository" feature.
[System Warehouse: Task rewards and items purchased from the system shop can be stored in the warehouse. This only applies to items acquired through the system; once retrieved, they cannot be returned.]
Xu Ran looked at the information on the panel and was slightly surprised.
"Expanding the farm area even comes with an extra bonus!"
"The mission level has also been raised to LV3, unlocking a system warehouse function."
"This feature is great. In the future, when I see new items in the system store every day, I can buy some and store them in my warehouse."
"Just take it out when you need it."
"It's like a secret treasure trove!"
Xu Ran immediately began to study it.
The system warehouse can only store system rewards and shop items; it's not like a personal storage space, but it's still practical enough.
After all, the store updates its rare items every day, so Xu Ran can buy more and store them in his warehouse.
Next, Xu Ran began to plan another matter.
That is, the system rewarded him with a farm tractor, how does he take it out?
The 120 mu of farmland required the use of tractors, and Xu Ran's original plan was to rent them.
Renting tractors to plow fields is very common.
After all, a large tractor costs at least two or three hundred thousand yuan.
If I were to buy it myself, how to explain it would be a problem.
This is probably the problem of the 21st century: everything has a traceable origin, from where the money came to where the tractor was bought.
In the apocalypse, there's no need to consider so much.
"Either sell it directly to the system store and exchange it for system currency, then pretend you didn't get this reward."
"After all, to register a large tractor, you need to provide the purchase invoice and certificate of conformity."
"First, we need to find out what model this tractor is. If the model doesn't match this era, it won't work."
Xu Ran pondered.
As he was pondering this, a notification appeared on the system panel.
Agricultural tractors represent the latest technological advancements in the world.
Upon seeing this notification, Xu Ran nodded.
He didn't rush to take the tractor out; he stored it in the system warehouse first.
We'll talk about it when we have the chance to use it later.
