Fang Gu was speechless for a moment, the words swirling in his throat.
“Da na da na”.
Bulbasaur also woke up.
Bulbasaur woke up to find Fang Gu there, and was so happy!
Fang Gu composed himself, squatted down, and gently rubbed Bulbasaur's head with a smile.
"The ranch is just getting on track, let's work together to keep it running smoothly."
"Our task today is to go to town to buy seeds and plant them in the newly prepared farmland."
"Let's cheer each other on, Bulbasaur!"
"Da na!" (Go for it! (｀??))
Stardew Valley Ranch
[Farm Owner: Fang Gu]
Farm members: Fang Xing, Fang Xiaolu.
Status: Worth looking forward to
Existing buildings: Cottage, Farmland, Chicken Coop (Damaged), Elf House (Damaged)
[Special Items]: Harvest box, television set.
[Special Recipe Already Activated]: Energetic Omelet...
I don’t know if it was just bad luck, but last night, Fang Gu cooked a whole table of dishes, but only the Vitality Fried Egg was a special dish with special effects.
Fortunately, even cooking ordinary dishes still grants cooking experience, which makes Fang Gu less upset.
But when Chef Fang, who had been busy all night, saw that his culinary experience bar had only increased by the length of a fingernail, he couldn't hold back any longer.
"I really should draw a circle and curse Stardew Valley."
It's worth noting that the worst thing about Stardew Valley's class panel is that it doesn't display an experience bar, making it difficult to understand.
In addition, according to the game, the experience required for each level on the Stardew Valley panel also increases exponentially.
Currently, Fang Gu's highest skill on his skill panel is cooking, which is at level six.
Fang Gu estimated that it would take at least another three or four months for his cooking skills to advance to the next level, and he would also have to cook every day.
Of course, there's also the chance to level up earlier, and making food for Pokémon is actually considered part of cooking skills.
Later on, the more elves there are in Stardew Valley Ranch in Fanggu, the faster the experience will increase.
There is another reason: when the elves of Stardew Valley Ranch members perform tasks such as gathering and farming, they also return experience points to Stardew Valley.
Of course, a certain percentage must be deducted, and this percentage depends on the level of intimacy with the spirit.
For example, Bulbasaur provides experience points that are almost at a normal level each time, while Froakie provides only half the experience points of Bulbasaur.
Yesterday afternoon, while I was repairing the farmland, notification messages kept popping up.
Congratulations! Your partner Bulbasaur has collected weeds and gained gathering experience.
Congratulations! Your partner Bulbasaur has collected a stone...
…………
Thanks to everyone's hard work this afternoon, Fang Gu's farming and gathering skills have both reached level one. It is expected that after planting today, he will be able to upgrade his farming skill to level two.
Each time Fang Gu's skill level increases, the most basic benefit is an improvement in physical attributes, along with other special rewards.
The television set is a special item obtained as a reward when Fang Gu's farming skill is upgraded to level one, and it perfectly inherits the functions of the television set in the game.
In Stardew Valley, televisions typically have three functions.
Firstly, there's the weather forecast. When you turn on the TV, it broadcasts today's or tomorrow's weather. When it rains, the crops in the fields don't need artificial irrigation.
Secondly, there's the Sauce Queen. This TV show features the Sauce Queen demonstrating and teaching new recipes, which are very likely to be dishes with special effects.
However, the Sauce Queen's show isn't on every day; sometimes it depends on luck.
The third function is the most mystical function of a television: it can consult spirits to determine your luck for the day.
In the game, if you're lucky, you'll encounter fewer monsters while mining, the chance of catching treasure chests while fishing will greatly increase, and you'll get higher quality crops when harvesting, among other things.
Of course, if bad luck comes your way, everything will be reversed.
But it's just a game after all. How will this prophecy change in the real world?
Fang Gu nervously turned on the TV and switched to the Lucky Channel.
"call……"
"Not bad luck."
Fang Gu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the message on the screen in front of him: "Young man who has just arrived at Stardew Valley Ranch, the elves are starting to pay attention to you. Your luck is good today."
I glanced at it and saw a line of small text below the Lucky Channel.
The harder you work, the luckier you get: The more you do for Stardew Valley Ranch, the more the ranch people and elves will love you, the more attention the elves will pay to you, and the better your luck will be.
"!!"
Isn't this a perfect example of positive feedback?
Luck will ensure that Fang Gu's efforts are not in vain, and these efforts will attract even better fortune.
"It seems I'm destined to be the luckiest person in the world."
Fang Gu wore a satisfied smile, all traces of his earlier complaints about the job panel gone.
Fang Gu gently rubbed Bulbasaur's head, his eyes filled with joy.
Bulbasaur let out a soft "tap-tap" and nestled in Fang Gu's arms. Since Fang Gu was the luckiest person in the world, then it, Bulbasaur, was the luckiest—no, the happiest Bulbasaur in the world.
Because in Bulbasaur's eyes, Fang Gu is the gentlest person in the whole world!
Fang Gu, holding Bulbasaur, switched between several channels.
[Weather Forecast: Today will be sunny with a light breeze and no rain]
After watching the weather forecast, Fang Gu carefully searched but couldn't find the Queen's channel, so he had to give up.
"It's time to get ready and head out."
Fang Gu looked at the empty bed next to him, guessing that Fang Xing had probably already taken the Frog to do his morning exercise.
"Ask Xiaolu if she wants to go to town with me."
Fang Gu tiptoed into Fang Xiaolu's room. Fang Xiaolu was still fast asleep, huddled under the covers in her pajamas.
But her Abebe—the Meow Meow puppet—had fallen to the foot of the bed. Fang Gu quickly picked it up, patted the puppet, and felt a little puzzled.
You know, Fang Xiaolu has always fallen asleep while holding "Master Xiaomi" since she was a child. Without Master Xiaomi, she would have a hard time getting a good night's sleep. But now it seems that Fang Xiaolu is sleeping quite soundly.
Fang Gu didn't think much of it; maybe it was because he had moved to a different place.
The computer on the table was still on, displaying the message "You have successfully published your first work".
Fang Gu understood immediately; Fang Xiaolu must have stayed up all night again behind his back so she could edit and send out the video as soon as possible.
Fang Gu glanced at Fang Xiaolu, a hint of heartache flashing in his eyes, before turning his attention back to the computer.
Looking at the "99+" displayed in the upper left corner of the computer screen, Fang Gu was slightly taken aback, then exclaimed in disbelief, "Did the very first video go viral!?"
Just as Fang Gu's attention was completely focused on the computer.
A slight "whoosh" sound came from Fang Xiaolu's quilt, and the quilt around Fang Xiaolu's arms sank slightly.
In her sleep, Fang Xiaolu mumbled, "Xiao Mi... don't go."
Chapter 15's video went viral, drawing attention from Ya Luo.
Fang Gu didn't hear Fang Xiaolu's murmurs in her sleep; he opened the comments section.
The most popular comment was posted by a man wearing a straw hat, with a burly build but a youthful face.
【AAA Yalo Farm (Wool Braided Sheep Wool for Sale)】: I've never heard of this ranch. Is it newly opened? I don't know if they raise wool braided sheep.
The comments below were all unanimously "Catch!"
Of course, there were also a few abstract comments, such as, "Please, Pavilion Master Yalo, whip me hard with a wool whip from a Woolbraided sheep."
Fang Gu felt a chill run down his spine. He then clicked on the homepage of [AAA Yalo Farm] and realized that it was an old acquaintance from the game.
Yaro, from the Sword and Shield games, is the Grass-type Gym Leader of the Galar region. He is best known for his kind heart and often helps weaker trainers and Pokémon with their training.
In addition, as the son of a farmer, Yalo inherited the family business after growing up. He was in the same industry as Fang Gu and founded Yalo Farm, which mainly raised wool sheep to produce wool for sale.
Actually, ranchers are quite common among gym trainers, such as Fuku from the Kalos region, Yaro from the Galar region, and Akane from the Johto region.
This precisely demonstrates that the Pokémon on the ranch are not as weak as rumored.
The truth is quite the opposite: only farm Pokémon that have undergone proper training and improved their physical fitness can produce higher quality products.
"I wish Stardew Valley Ranch could raise a flock of Woolblades," Fang Gu said with a hint of envy.
The white wool of a Woolbree will grow all over its body throughout its life. Even if the wool is shaved clean, it can return to its original appearance in less than three months.
Due to the rapid growth of their wool, there are many examples in the wild where Woolbraid sheep are covered in wool, making it difficult for them to move around.
Long before humans first subdued the elves, Woolstaff had established a special relationship with humans. Humans would help Woolstaff trim their overly long hair, which would then be woven into winter sweaters for the Galarians.
According to an unnamed report, Woolstätter sheep actually quite enjoy the process of having their wool sheared.
Clothing and carpets made from braided sheep's wool are exceptionally durable and are among the famous products of the Galer region.
Of course, another aspect of the woolly sheep that most attracted Fang Gu was—
The woolly sheep, covered in wool, looks really fluffy; it's like a sweet and soft little Pokémon.
Unlike Mare, which unleashes a scorching electric shock when threatened, Woolpidem simply curls into a small ball and uses its sturdy wool to defend itself from attacks, making it look more like a marshmallow.
Imagine Fang Gu, exhausted after a long day, is about to rest when a woolly sheep wanders into his house, willingly becoming his little pillow. Fang Gu buries his head in the soft wool, feeling its light touch, and listens to its babbling lullaby—
Thinking of this, Fang Gu wiped the corner of his mouth.
As expected, humans still can't resist furry Pokémon!
