Chapter 37 Little Wild Boar, Go! Use Wild Boar Charge!
The light drizzle arrived as expected.
It would stop for a while, and it wasn't violent, but the sun just wouldn't come out.
The sky has been overcast the whole time, which is quite annoying.
In some places, the rainy season can last for a whole month, which is even more unbearable.
The farm entered a brief period of quiet.
The employees are still busy every day.
I need to plant tomatoes soon, and there's a lot of work to do.
For example, tilling the land, leveling it, spraying insect repellent and herbicide, digging trenches, laying insulation film, etc.
This time, the farm used the transplanting method, which involves first cultivating tomato seeds into seedlings, and then transplanting the seedlings onto the heat-insulating film.
This method is more scientific and can improve crop survival rates.
Next to the greenhouse is a special seedling room with a suitable temperature. Xu Ran personally takes care of it, and the tomatoes grow very quickly.
He has a system shop where he can exchange for [Special Growth Promoter] to help crops germinate.
The store's redemption system is incredibly powerful.
It still has to be the system.
With the system in place, it's hard for a farm not to thrive.
The employees are busy every day.
Everyone is very enthusiastic about their work.
The main thing is that the division of labor is clear, and everyone's responsibilities are agreed upon in advance. As long as the work is done, everyone can rest.
So often, these young men work themselves to the bone just so they can rest a little longer, play games, or have some casual gaming sessions.
Xu Ran felt there was absolutely no problem.
He planned the task schedule and followed it.
Everything is proceeding smoothly.
The little wild boar has adapted to farm life these past two days.
Especially when feeding the pigs in the morning.
There are large pigs in the pigpen, as well as a few young piglets.
Xu Ran simply let the wild boar and the pink pig eat together.
Pigs sometimes fight over food, which is when they feel they don't have much left to eat, and they bump into each other.
The wild boar and the pink pig often fight while eating.
Strangely enough, they fought fiercely while eating, but after they finished eating, they acted as if nothing had happened.
They even slept close together affectionately.
Xu Ran sometimes couldn't understand the pig's brain circuitry.
This is not bad.
Among the pigs Xu Ran had raised before, there was one that was even more outrageous. Every time this guy finished eating, he would use his snout to overturn the feeding trough, preventing the other pigs from eating.
"I'm full, you all stop eating!"
This behavior is very difficult to understand.
So, Xu Ran slaughtered it the next day and made it into braised pork.
If the brain can't understand it, then the stomach has to do it.
The wild boar roams freely on the farm, and the staff are used to seeing it.
This guy is very obedient and won't mess up the vegetable garden or sunflower field.
He would occasionally go to play with Little Grey.
Little Grey gradually accepted the pig.
After raising it for two days, the wild boar's loyalty reached 100%.
Xu Ran chose to sign a contract with it.
Wild boars have become the new battle pets in the apocalypse.
Perhaps because it's still young, I haven't noticed any changes in the little wild boar.
I reckon I'll be able to feel it when I grow up.
"I wish that wild boars could grow up and be used like Pokémon, so we could send them to battle."
Sometimes, Xu Ran would have some unrealistic ideas.
It sounds pretty cool to send out a majestic wild boar when the time comes.
"I choose you, you big wild boar!"
"Use wild boar charge!"
Of course, even without Pokémon battles, he could command a boar to use Boar Charge in real life.
He even tried it out of the blue.
Xu Ran named the little wild boar "Guazi" (meaning "melon seed").
It's purely because it looks similar.
Because of the contract, the little wild boar could understand Xu Ran's words and gladly accepted the name.
"Guazi, go! Use Wild Boar Charge!"
Xu Ran pointed to a cardboard box in front of him and gave the little wild boar a command.
The next second, the little wild boar charged straight toward the cardboard box, its four legs moving rapidly, making a "clattering" sound, before slamming hard into the box.
"Snapped!"
A perfectly good cardboard box was transformed into a pitiful sight in an instant.
Skill used successfully.
This scene was clearly witnessed by Wang Hai and Li Wu, who were eating watermelon nearby.
The two stopped what they were doing and stared in disbelief.
No, this is okay?
How could a wild boar be trained like this in just two days?
"What did you do before, Ran-ge? You could even train wild boars?" Wang Hai asked Li Wu.
"Don't even mention wild boars, we can train giant pandas!" Li Wu replied.
The two couldn't help but secretly admire it.
Xu Ran found it quite interesting. He couldn't even imagine how powerful the Wild Boar Charge would be once the wild boar grew up.
Of course, there's not much opportunity to use it; if it hurts someone, he might have to go inside.
Despite the rain, the farm was still quite busy.
That afternoon, Xu Ran and everyone else were busy laying out insulation film in the greenhouse.
The rain pattered against the tarpaulin overhead.
I must say, it's quite artistic.
"Ran-ge, leave this job to us."
"There's enough room for the four of us in just the last greenhouse."
When Wang Hai saw Xu Ran tidying up the plastic wrap, he immediately went over to take over.
They planned to grow tomatoes in three greenhouses. They had previously divided the work into pairs, each responsible for one greenhouse, and then worked together until the last one was finished.
Now we're working on the last one.
We have plenty of manpower.
Xu Ran nodded. "Okay."
Since I was paid a salary, I did feel a bit more relaxed.
Previously, there were many things to do on the farm, and there simply weren't enough people, so he had to help.
Plastic wrap was laid on the soil ridges in the field, and then the plastic wrap was firmly fixed on both sides using a film pressing machine.
The soil has been sprinkled with various fertilizers and pesticides to repel insects and weeds, making it rich in nutrients. After a few days of this, we'll wait for the tomato seedlings to be transplanted.
When the tomatoes absorb nutrients from the soil, they will naturally grow very fast.
According to Yang Kaifu, manager of Yonghui Supermarket, the extra-large red tomatoes are very popular and are almost sold out.
Many people are now inquiring about the origin of this tomato.
Someone will definitely see the business opportunity and want to plant it.
Xu Ran told him that these were special seeds that required special cultivation methods to grow to such a size, and that the cultivation methods were not to be shared.
It's not that he doesn't want to share the knowledge, it's that he can't. The planting effect is only effective on his farm; no one else can grow such good tomatoes.
Xu Ran had nothing else to do, so he went to inspect the other greenhouses.
He still has one task to complete: planting 1000 crops to earn a random skill as a reward.
The thought of acquiring the skill fills me with anticipation.
Therefore, he hopes the tomato seedlings will sprout soon so that they can be transplanted as soon as possible.
Claiming the prize as soon as possible is the right thing to do.
Xu Ran strolled around the greenhouse, then, holding an umbrella, ran to the sheepfold to feed the sheep, and then to the chicken coop to feed the chickens.
The little yellow chicks have grown a bit, each one round and chubby, and they look more like toys when you hold them in your hand.
It definitely feels different as a system reward.
After finishing all that, Xu Ran went back to her own little courtyard.
The Border Collies were all lying in their kennels because of the rain; they couldn't move around and could only rest.
The calf was lying in an empty house not far away. The house was very dilapidated, with no doors or windows, just cement walls and a roof, which was just right for raising cattle.
Its head was perched on the empty doorway, peering at the rain outside.
It seems they are also waiting for the rain to stop.
It's obvious the little ones are bored.
But there's nothing we can do; that's just how the weather is.
Xu Ran called over Little Grey and teased it. Cola and Sprite also came over to act cute.
These three Border Collies are all excellent breeds; their coats are very smooth and feel wonderful to the touch.
Especially the smooth forehead.
It feels good to touch it a few times.
