The Billion-Value Lands Are Just For Farming

Chapter 506 - Where Am I?

“Hmph, fine, don't tell me then!”

Hsu Chenyue's delicate eyebrows furrowed briefly before she broke into a smile again. “Thanks for helping me shake off Murong Tian. See you later.”

With that, Hsu Chenyue hopped out of the car and cheerfully skipped back upstairs.

Su Ming had initially planned to check on his parents.

But he noticed that the lights upstairs were off.

There were two possibilities.

Either they were already asleep, or the old couple was enjoying some alone time.

Well then.

It seemed inappropriate to intrude either way.

Su Ming shook his head and decided to head back home.

The more he thought about it, the more Su Ming realized he was just an unexpected occurrence in their lives. His parents were the ones with the true love story.

Back in the city center, he surveyed the ground and the other three districts.

No major issues.

After a while spent on the computer and staying up until midnight without any luck in finding anything worthwhile, Su Ming went to bed.

The night passed without incident, and the next morning dawned.

Young Master Murong groggily opened his eyes, his gaze foggy as he scanned his surroundings.

Ouch!

His head throbbed painfully!

He felt nauseous and dizzy, with an unsettled stomach that was utterly uncomfortable.

”Young Master, you're awake?” came a familiar voice from nearby.

”Ah.”

Murong Tian nodded absentmindedly, then paused, a hint of recognition dawning on him.

Wait a minute.

Why did that voice sound so familiar?

Of course… it was nonsense to even question it. Anyone in his bedroom would be someone he knew well.

But why did his gut feeling scream that this person shouldn't be here?

Something was off about this person's presence.

Murong Tian racked his brain, which ached from the effort.

The alcohol from the night before had dulled his wits, and he was still not fully functional.

He slowly opened his eyes for a better look.

What?!

This person…

Oh my God!!!

It all came flooding back!!!

No wonder he felt this person had no place here.

What the hell!

Wasn't this Li Hai, the club manager and his loyal henchman?

”Li Hai, what are you doing here? Weren't you taken by the police?”

Murong Tian was utterly bewildered.

Could it be…

The raid on the clubhouse was all just a dream?

A figment of his imagination after drinking too much the night before?

No way.

He had been a bit tipsy, sure, but now he was sober and could clearly tell the difference.

“Yeah.”

Li Hai, upon hearing this, was taken aback.

He nodded vacantly, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

Murong Tian nearly leaped to his feet when he heard that.

What did he mean by ‘yeah'!

And to say it so matter-of-factly.

Didn't he realize how frustrated I am right now?

My head is pounding.

I'm clueless about what's happening.

Murong Tian glanced around in confusion.

Huh?

How did his bedroom turn into this?

A tiny room.

Bunk beds on each side, four beds in total.

Checkered sheets and blankets.

And then, to the side, an iron fence.

Murong Tian was dumbstruck.

“Where am I?”

He asked, his voice quivering.

”The police station,” Li Hai replied, looking perplexed.

“What?!”

Murong Tian sprang to his feet.

He rushed to the fence and peered through it.

It was indeed the police station!

But that couldn't be right!

Could someone please explain what's happening?!

Wasn't I just out drinking last night? How did I end up here?

This… this… this…

I need a logical explanation!

Murong Tian was completely baffled, his mind in a haze.

His eyes were wide with disbelief at everything he was seeing.

“Oh, Murong Tian is awake.”

Just then, Captain Wu approached.

“Thank you, Comrade Murong Tian, for the lead you provided.”

“It appears you've voluntarily disclosed the criminal facts.”

“And you've even denounced your own father's illegal activities.”

“We'll suggest to the court that your sentence be reduced.”

Captain Wu spoke cheerfully.

“Huh?!”

Murong Tian was flabbergasted.

What in the world?

What's all this about?

What's happening?

My mind is just not keeping up.

I can't seem to remember a thing.

When did I willingly disclose any criminal facts? When did I report my dad?

How come I'm totally unaware of this?

Murong Tian turned back, looking at Li Hai with a bewildered face.

Li Hai nodded, confirming that it was indeed the case.

Murong Tian plopped down on the ground with a slap to his thigh.

”Ouch!

The master's predictions were spot on!

I'm in for it now!

But I can't blame anyone else; if there's anyone to blame, it's myself for not being able to handle my drink and getting drunk halfway through.”

I ran out of time for the third condition.

Sigh…

Such is fate.

This guy is actually grateful to Su Ming now, but if he knew the real story…

Gratitude would be unlikely.

He'd be absolutely livid.

……

Su Ming slowly opened his eyes and stretched leisurely.

The weather was nice, and he had slept like a log.

After freshening up a bit,

Su Ming changed into his work clothes and headed straight for the field.

As expected, an acre of land had been upgraded.

The soil shimmered with a green glow, resembling a vast prairie.

Su Ming blinked in disbelief.

Well then.

As long as this color doesn't show up on my own head,

I'm fine with it.

Time to start farming!

Su Ming pulled out his phone, accessed the warehouse, and redeemed a Celestial Peach.

He then made his way to the adjacent warehouse.

Just as he approached,

Whoosh!

A bright light flashed, followed by billowing mist.

Amidst the swirling white fog, five glistening Celestial Peaches appeared.

Su Ming was gobsmacked.

Holy cow!

Is it really that impressive?

Worthy of a Level Three seed, complete with special effects upon its arrival.

Su Ming quickly moved closer for a better look.

Huh?

What's this…

System, are you playing a joke on me?

Next to the warehouse, five boxes had appeared, rudimentary and plain, resembling those music boxes sold on the streets for a few dollars apiece.

The light from before?

It was just an LED behind the box.

And the smoke?

A small compartment held dry ice.

This is just…

Annoying.

You'd think a Level Three seed would have a bit more flair, right?

What kind of trick is this?

Su Ming walked over, picked up a box, and slowly opened it.

Wow!

The scent was heavenly!

A rich, enticing fragrance wafted out, making him want to devour it immediately.

But they definitely couldn't be eaten.

This thing was extraordinary!

Peaches were typically either grafted or grown from seeds, but here he was simply handed a peach.

Su Ming chuckled to himself, slipped the five peaches into his pocket, and headed out.

He arrived at the field.

He placed the seeds by the roadside.

Starting up the tractor, he revved the engine.

Chug, chug, chug!

He thoroughly tilled the soil from one end to the other.

Then Su Ming, seeds in hand, stepped onto the freshly turned earth.

Upon closer inspection, it was clear.

These were indeed Level Three seeds; you could only plant one per acre.

Impressive!

Su Ming wasn't upset in the slightest, nor was he rushed.

Based on his previous experience, the lower the planting density, the better the yield!
