36: Amazing harvest

“Primary Detector blueprint.”

“Use.”

“[Primary Detector crafting materials: gold block x10, mythril x5, wind spirit stone x5, electric spirit stone x5, crystal ball x1.]”

“What the heck is this detector?”

“It's just a primary item, why are the materials so strange?”

“Besides the two spirit stones being relatively easy to acquire, I haven't even heard of the others.”

“Excellent wind-thunder spiritual sword blueprint.”

“Use.”

“[Excellent wind-thunder spiritual sword crafting materials: gold crystal stone x10, wind spirit stone x5, thunder spirit stone x5.]”

“Hmm, better than the previous one, but I'll wait until I get gold crystal stone.”

“Although an excellent-grade weapon is tempting, a clever woman cannot cook without rice!”

“It seems various spirit stones will be frequently needed later on, so I must collect more for unexpected needs.”

“Intermediate Healing PotionPreparation recipe.”

“Use.”

“[Intermediate Healing Potion crafting materials: auspicious grass x3, storax x3, Red Immortal Flower x2, Three-Leaf Lotus x2.]”

“Alright, another one I can only look at but not use.”

“It seems not just spirit stones, but these flowers and plants also need to be collected more.”

“Primary Detoxification Potion crafting recipe.”

“Use.”

“[Primary Detoxification Potion crafting materials: Pine Resin x3, phoenix flower x2, Nine-budded Lily of the Valley x2.]”

“The primary one is easier to craft.”

“I remember getting phoenix flower and Nine-budded Lily of the Valley from Skeletal Mountain Goat drops, and Pine Resin was for sale at the Auction House last time I checked.”

“I'll buy some Pine Resin later and try to concoct one.”

After using all the recipes, Liu Yang took out the last two items.

“[Mysterious Treasure Key: A key to a treasure vault crafted by an unknown entity, capable of unlocking the treasure it buried. Please remember the pattern on the key to avoid missing the opportunity, if you are fortunate enough to encounter it.]”

Liu Yang looked closely and saw a two-headed goat pattern imprinted on the key handle, very mysterious.

“Could this be the treasure key left by that giant beast?”

“Hmm, there's a high probability!”

Liu Yang quickly put away the key and secretly made a decision.

Unless absolutely necessary, he would never expose it easily.

“[Advanced Cultivation Field: A fertile field that can accelerate crop growth. With it, you will no longer have to worry about food. (PS: To place and activate it, please upgrade your Home to excellent grade.)]”

“…”

Liu Yang was speechless; this was the first time he encountered an item with usage conditions.

But then again, without a suitable place, there really was nowhere to put this item.

“That means the top priority is to upgrade the Home first, followed by concocting the detoxification potion.”

“As for the others, there's no rush; just take it slow.”

He had good items, but lacked the materials to craft them, leaving him helpless and truly frustrated.

Stepping out of the pavilion, the Guan Family Three Sisters were busy.

More precisely, Guan Ning霜 was busy, while the other two were drooling nearby.

“Da Lao, you're done! Come quickly, the meat is almost ready.”

As soon as Liu Yang appeared, the sharp-eyed Guan Ningyan called out.

“Mm, alright.”

Liu Yang smiled slightly and walked towards the three sisters.

After a few casual remarks, Liu Yang got to the point.

“I want to ask how much of the common materials you all have? I have a great use for them.”

“The materials are all with me. I'll check the warehouse; please wait a moment.”

Hearing Liu Yang's question, Guan Ning霜 put down her spoon and said to Liu Yang.

After a brief wait, Guan Ning霜 read out the quantities from the warehouse:

“Hay x92, wood x256, iron block x155, Stone Material x163, copper block x46.”

Listening to the numbers Guan Ning霜 reported, Liu Yang silently added them to his own inventory counts.

Then he compared them to the materials needed for upgrading the Home.

wood and iron block were completely sufficient, with plenty left over.

However, there was nearly a 50% deficit in Stone Material.

Trying to buy nearly 250 units of Stone Material in one go, even if the material was common and cheap, wouldn't be easy.

More importantly, setting aside other spirit stones, the key lay in empty spirit stone.

“How about this, please give me the wood, iron block, and Stone Material for now. After I finish this upgrade, I probably won't need them much for a short period, and then I can help you upgrade.”

Asking for things from his saviors, even with Liu Yang's thick skin, it was a struggle, but he had no choice.

“Mm, no problem. These materials that belong to us weren't much to begin with; they were all dropped these past few days. According to the agreement, they all belong to you.”

Guan Ning霜's expression was calm; she nodded in agreement directly and even brought up the previous agreement she made with Liu Yang.

“Let's scrap the agreement. I'm not an ungrateful person. Without you all this time, whether I could have survived well is unknown.”

After this incident, Liu Yang had a much broader perspective.

At the same time, he saw clearly the character of the three sisters.

Perhaps they couldn't provide much help to him in combat for now, but the role they could play was not small.

Chatting to relieve boredom, mass-farming small monsters, cooking delicious food, and the occasional small benefits inadvertently given.

With so many advantages, why would he need to think more about what to do?

“Wow, Da Lao, are you saying you're willing to take us with you?”

Guan Ningyan understood the meaning behind Liu Yang's words and was somewhat disbelieving.

“More or less, but we'll discuss the specifics tonight.”

Liu Yang openly admitted his decision.

“Mm, mm! Then let's talk tonight, and I also have something I want to discuss with you!”

“No problem, let's have a frank and open discussion tonight.”

“Mm, then you go get busy.”

Upon receiving Liu Yang's reply, Guan Ningyan fell into a fantasy.

As if her plan had already come to fruition.

“Liu Yang, I've traded the materials to you. If you need anything else, just tell me.”

Just as he finished talking with Guan Ningyan, Guan Ning霜's voice sounded again.

“[Guan Ning霜 traded with you, obtaining wood x256, iron block x155, Stone Material x163.]”

“[Shi Yufei traded with you, obtaining Spiritual Energy electric oven blueprint x1, electric spirit stone x1.]”

Liu Yang called out the game interface, and two messages popped up.

Besides the materials traded by Guan Ning霜, there was also Shi Yufei's blueprint.

“Spiritual Energy electric oven blueprint.”

“Use.”

“[Spiritual Energy electric oven crafting materials: iron block x5, copper block x2, electric spirit stone x1.]”

It must be said that Shi Yufei was very thoughtful.

She probably guessed the materials needed for crafting and, fearing Liu Yang didn't have them, even prepared the electric spirit stone.

The material requirements were not many, so Liu Yang directly chose to craft.

“[You have crafted a Spiritual Energy electric oven. Iron block -5, copper block -2, electric spirit stone -1.]”

“[Congratulations on obtaining a Spiritual Energy electric oven.]”

“[Spiritual Energy electric oven: Don't know how to cook the meat you dropped? Want to eat roasted meat but lack the tools? You need a Spiritual Energy electric oven. Spiritual Energy electric oven, enjoy the delicious taste of meat, you deserve to have it.]”

“Frost Skill!”

“Hmm?”

“Can you make roasted meat?”

“Yes, I can.”

“Always eating stewed meat is a bit monotonous. I have a Spiritual Energy electric oven here; let's make some roasted meat later for a change of taste.”

Saying this, Liu Yang handed the electric oven to Guan Ning霜.

“Mm, alright. I was just thinking of trying other cooking methods; this Spiritual Energy electric oven came at just the right time.”

“I'll go back to my room first. I'll trouble you later to portion out half of the cooked meat separately. Thank you.”

Liu Yang gave his final instructions and walked towards the pavilion.

Recommending books from a few friends in the group. Da Lao who are interested can take some time to check them out.

As the saying goes, a Kun is too big to fit in one pot.

The players are here, and another world is about to be turned upside down.
