The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

Chapter 378 - The Honeydew Melon Is Ripe

Su Ming visited the mall and picked out several outfits for Yuvyuv, dressing her up beautifully.

After dropping her off at school, he headed home.

?He parked his car in the garage, opened the front door, and stepped inside.

Following his routine, he first checked on the farmland.

The Excellent Banana trees had grown quite tall.

Some bananas were peeking out, albeit short and green.

They gave off a subtle scent and a soft blue glow.

Level Two crops certainly stood out from the ordinary.

What wonders would they yield?

Su Ming was filled with anticipation.

Next, he inspected the melon patch.

?The melons had grown large, their oval shapes a vibrant yellow with gray striations.

Su Ming picked one up and tapped it; until ripe, it seemed just like any other melon.

?He then made his way to the herding area.

He noted that the pasture was grazed clean daily, yet by morning, it would be lush again.

?Su Ming watered the grass and treated the livestock to some fruit and feed.

Though they typically grazed, no animal on earth would turn down a treat.

After checking on the carp in the aquatic product area and the rabbits, finding all as it should be, he stretched and headed back to the villa.

?Settling on the sofa, he flicked on the TV.

Then, a thought struck him.

Rubbing his chin, he mused, “What if I wish in the lantern for my crops to ripen sooner? Could it work?”

A spark of excitement in his eyes, Su Ming decided to try his luck.

He sprang up and made for the basement.

?Returning with a large bag, he sat back down, took out a lantern, and placed a bright candle inside.

After a moment's thought, he wrote on a slip of paper, “I wish for the melons to mature quickly.”

He tucked the note into the lantern and set it alight.

“Host, your wish has been made. There is a 50% chance of it coming true!”

Su Ming was astounded.

A 50% chance of his wish coming true was incredibly high!

He should've done this much sooner!

Eager to capitalize on the moment before the System could react, he prepared to make another wish.

He immediately pulled out the note and jotted down another wish.

Next, he fetched a lantern, placed the note inside, and set it alight.

“Host, you can only make one wish regarding the same crop.”

Su Ming paused when the notification chimed in his head, then let out a sigh.

The System was incredibly thorough.

Otherwise, he might have found a way to cheat.

Even though he was limited to a single wish, he felt quite content.

A 50% chance was remarkably high, after all!

“Host, congratulations! Your wish has been granted! The maturation time for your melons has been significantly reduced! They will ripen in just 12 hours!”

Hearing the notification in his mind, Su Ming was elated.

They usually required a full day to mature, but now it would take only half that time!

That meant he could harvest them tonight.

Fantastic!

Su Ming could barely contain his excitement.

He took a bath, watched a couple of movies, and then settled down to play some games.

?As the night deepened, fatigue set in.

He drifted off to sleep on the couch.

Before succumbing to sleep, he had asked Yuvyuv to alert him once the melons were ripe.

Buoyed by his excitement, Su Ming quickly fell into a deep slumber.

In his dream, the entire Eastsea had transformed into his farm.

The breeding zone teemed with mythical creatures from legends.

?The plantation area boasted an array of spaceships straight out of sci-fi tales, their designs sleek and brimming with futuristic appeal.

?The aquatic product area swarmed with dragons, while the herding area was home to a flock of phoenixes.

It was an incredibly beautiful dream!

Suddenly, Yuvyuv's voice broke through.

“Master, the melons are ripe.”

Su Ming's eyes fluttered open, still groggy.

“What melon? I was just soaring through the skies on a dragon,” he mumbled.

?Blinking away the sleep, he took in his familiar living room and reality dawned on him.

It had all been just a dream.

But Su Ming held onto the belief that, with the System's help, his dreams would one day materialize.

His first order of business was to check on the melons in the farmland.

He sat up quickly and made his way to the fields.

The melons were indeed ripe.

Upon entering the farmland, Su Ming finally saw them for what they were.

He paused, taken aback.

What were these things?

They resembled enormous, dark dice.

Blinking in bewilderment, Su Ming approached the nearest melon to investigate.

It turned out to be a briefcase!

Su Ming was momentarily taken aback.

The briefcase was in a sorry state, its exterior peeling away.

He could hardly believe his eyes.

Was the System playing a prank on him?

Could his wish have somehow caused the melon's quality to deteriorate?

The briefcase was so worn out that if he tossed it onto the street, no one would give it a second glance.

Su Ming sighed and shook his head.

It seemed that cutting corners wasn't going to work.

Oh well.

He decided to face reality.

As long as he could gain experience and level up, that's what mattered.

Su Ming felt a deep sense of disappointment.

He extended his hand to pick up the briefcase and was shocked.

It was incredibly heavy! There definitely had to be something inside!

He quickly opened the briefcase to take a closer look.

Inside the briefcase was a bright red booklet. He pulled it out and, to his surprise, it was a property deed.

There was also a housing purchase contract.

Every necessary document was in order.

Su Ming hastily opened the property deed to check the address of the house.

101, Building 1, Unit 1, Grand Court Neighborhood, Linbin District, Eastsea City.

Linbin District?

Why did that sound so familiar?

Puzzled, Su Ming quickly pulled out his phone to look up the location.

The Linbin District was actually situated within the Second Loop of Eastsea City!

While the real estate prices there weren't as steep as those in the city center, they were still considerable.

In the city center, prices could soar to several hundred thousand yuan per square meter.

In the Second Loop, prices were upwards of 100,000 yuan per square meter!

The name Grand Court Neighborhood rang a bell.

After some thought, Su Ming had an epiphany: Grand Court Neighborhood was the new development that had just been completed along the Second Loop!

He remembered passing by and receiving a flyer from the sales office.
