Chapter 5: You Are Xiao Wang, Right?

Jiang He was jolted awake by dog barks by the next morning.

“Damn it! What are you barking at? I’ll break your doggie legs, trust me!”

Turning around and rising, he then found Dumbo sprawled in front of his bed and whimpering restlessly, even putting on a human grief look.

“What?” Jiang He was amused.

Dumbo continued its grunts and whimpers, but when it realized that it wasn’t conveying its message, it sat up and pointed a paw outside.

Jiang He turned to look.

He could see his orchard through the window, which was now a jade green field of corn.

“Woah…”

His mouth agape, Jiang He promptly jumped off his bed, put on his pants and slippers before dashing outside.

“It really works! The corn I just sowed last night is this tall already?!”

He walked up to the corn to find that each corn stalk was as tall as he was. Each of their shoots was thick, their leaves a lively green and showing signs of yielding crops. Jiang He did a count and found that there were only twenty-eight corn stalks.

“Wait, that’s not right! I didn’t pay attention when I just grabbed a handful of corn last night, but there were definitely more than twenty-eight seeds.”

Still, suddenly getting an idea, Jiang He dropped to a crouch and dug into the dirt.

He soon excavated one corn kernel out of the ground.

Hence, Jiang He walked a lap around the twenty-eight corn stalks, muttering in realization, “These twenty-eight corns were planted on the spot where I sprinkled the ashes of the cucumber tree. That’s why they grew so quickly.”

He then took a closer look at the corn kernel in his hand: it was already sprouting a shoot, and it would probably have extended out of the ground if he didn’t dig it out.

“Corn mature cycles are very long, so if I plant it in April or March when spring starts, I would only get my yield around October. Still, although corn kernels usually sprout around a week, this one sprouted in a day!”

“In other words… the System works on normal crops as well, and it greatly shortens the life cycles of the plants to about seven or eight times… But there’s no telling whether there are special effects yet.”

Jiang He hence turned toward the System.

[Name: Jiang He]

6

[Farm Level: 1 (EXP 1/50)]

1

[System Backpack: 3 boxes]

[Farm Points: 499]

“Eh? Why is there an EXP now behind farm level?”

Jiang He’s eyes twinkled, before he got the idea. “Doesn’t that mean my farm can level up?”

“And if level one shortens the growth cycle of my crops up to eight times, what if I reach level 2?”

“That said, that’s not enough. I still have to know whether there would be some mystical effect after my normal crops were grown!”
