Chapter 6 : Making A Plan

Keep a low profile, I must keep a low a profile!

Alexander, who had read countless transmigration novels, knew very well that if you could not keep a low profile in an unfamiliar world, you could not have a good ending. Alexander believed that novels were just fantasies. The reason why those protagonists could act so arrogantly is because of the author's cheat and plot armor.

If a person was still so arrogant in an unfamiliar environment, the consequences would be disastrous.

Alexander was the last surviving member of the Frost family. However, they had the offended some of the forces in the Arcadina Empire. Under such circumstances, if he did not keep a low profile, the consequences would be tragic. Those old nobles power were so enormous that Alexander felt a cold chill running down his spine just thinking about it.

Those nobles had countless ways to kill a person, and for that matter he has to keep a low profile and secretly develop before he can exact his vengeance.

Alexander did not want to lose his head in his sleep.

Just as Alexander was thinking about this, there was a knock on the door. Alexander was surprised, but he immediately said

"Come in "

Rose pushed the door open and walked in.

She lowered her head and did not look at Alexander. She bowed and said '' Young Master ''. She did not say anything else.

Alexander was stunned and then shook his head and smiled bitterly. The reason why Rose did not look up at him was that Alexander had wanted to molest her but he did not succeed. From then on, Rose always avoided Adam whenever she saw him. Even when they met, she would bow her head and call him Young Master before turning to leave.

Alexander cursed in his heart. This was all the previous Alexander fault but he had to bear the responsibility. Heavens what sins have I committed to deserve this?.

Alexander looked at Rose and signed '' I'm fine .Go and rest. I want to sleep for a while. Just wake me up when it is time for dinner ''.

Rose nodded and left. She walked out of the room and gently closed the door. Seeing Rose avoid him like a plague, Alexander bitterly smiled.

Now that his body was completely fine, he did not feel uncomfortable at all. The reason why he said he wanted to rest was because he wanted to organize the previous Alexander's memories and see if he had missed out anything. In addition, he had the system now, which could help in his future development. He had to think about how to use the system probably to his advantage.

The system had gifted him corn and tomato seeds, however he did not know if there were tomatoes and corn in the Sky Continent or the Azure Wind World.In the past the previous Alexander was a prodigal son who did not know anything about grocery shopping much less about farming. All he had to do was to eat, he did not know if there were crops like tomatoes and corn in the Azure Wind World.

He now had a starting capital of 5000 Farm Money from the newbie gift package. With this Farm Money he could buy a lot of things from the system shop.

'' System activate the system shop '' . Alexander said in a calm voice. He then proceeded to look through the items displayed in the system shop.

'' System I want to purchase two bags of tomato seeds, three bags of corn seeds, three bags of radish seeds, five bags of celestial soil and five barrels of spring of life '' .

[ Ding ]

The system quickly made its familiar sound and said, '' Host the total price would be 1095 Farm Money. Could the host like to confirm purchase '' .

" Yes please ". Alexander replied.

[ Ding ]

" 1095 had been deducted from the host account. The items had been placed in the storage space. Thank you for your patronage " The system voice sounded in Alexander's mind.

'' The host should spend more Farm Money to quickly level up the system to unlock more powerful functions '' . The system said in a flattering tone.

Alexander speechlessly rolled eyes. He was surprised by how fast the system changes it's attitude. It looks like the system is encouraging him to spend more money.

'' System I think instead of calling you the Almighty Farming System, you should change your name to the Almighty Loving Money System '' . Alexander said in a sarcastic tone.

[ Ding ]

[ System in silent mode ]

The system replied by projecting an interface in front of Alexander's eyes.

Alexander was astounded by how fast the system changes it's attitude. A moment ago it was a money grubbing system the next second it becomes a cold and emotionless system. Alexander didn't know what to do with this system of his.

Alexander shook his and signed, '' System show me my status '' .

[ Status ]

[ Name : Alexander Frost ]

[ Territory : The Great Desolate Region ]

[ Cultivation : None [ Crippled spirit core, twisted meridians ]

[ Pet : None ]

[ System level : One ] [ Next experience to level up : 100,000 Farm Money ]

[ 1,095 : 100, 000 ]

[ Farm Money : 3,905 ]

[ System Inventory : Two bags of tomato seeds, three bags of corn seeds, three bags of radish seeds, five bags of celestial soil, five barrels of spring of life ]

[ System Shop : Unlocked ]

[ Land Cultivated : None ]

Alexander gave a cursory glance at his status and saw that there had been some changes to it. Firstly, he is now left with 1,095 Farm Money from the 5,000 Farm Money the system gave him. Secondly, a new feature appeared in the system status called system Inventory with the items he bought showing beside it .

" System does the inventory had the same functions as a storage tool " . Alexander asked the system.

The system didn't reply but sent a description of the system Inventory.

[ Ding ]

[ System Inventory: Able store things the host had bought from the system shop.]

Alexander immediately understood the functions of the inventory. He could only store things he bought from the system shop which means he cannot store anything in the inventory apart from the items he bought from the system.

From Alexander's memories, he knew that there were many storage tools in this world. A space mage could make a storage tool but there were not many space mages in this world. Therefore, although there were many storage tools in this world, there were all in the hands of high ranking Noble families or powerful cultivators . Ordinary people rarely had them.

Alexander had already thought it through. His future development would depend on farming. After all the system lacks offensive abilities, so Farming was the best possible outcome for him.

Now he had an incomparable large land and mountains as his fief. These places were his territories, but it could take a lot of time to develop these territories and make them useful.

Alexander only hoped the celestial soil and the spring of life could really change the Great Desolate Region. In that case, he would have a large land piece of land to farm.

Alexander had never been worried about manpower. Because he knew there was a category of people in this world that did not exist back on Earth. They were slaves.

There were no slaves on Earth but here there are slaves in this world. As long as you had money you could buy slaves as many as you want. The life and death of these slaves were completely decided by you. They were absolutely loyal and would not even have the thought of betraying you much less have the thought of escaping, because every slave had part of their souls sealed in a magical rune called a slave contract. Once they have the thought of escaping or betraying you the consequences would be tragic.

Therefore as long as he had money, he did not need to worry about manpower. In this world where Strength determine anything, there was naturally wars occuring every second therefore in wars there was naturally a winner and a loser. The winner would then decide to turn his enemies into slaves so in this world there were no lack of slaves. As long as someone could provide them with a suitable price, those powerhouses and nobles could turn countless people into slaves.

As long as you have power you could do anything. This world is that simple.

However, with Alexander's current status, if he bought a large number of slaves, it would definitely attract the attention of others. Therefore, no matter what, he had to keep a low profile. Being low key for the time being was his plan and farming would be his main development direction.

Thinking of this Alexander heaved a sign of relief and slowly lay on the bed.

He stare blankly at the stone celing. He still thought he was in a dream. He was an ordinary otaku on Earth and in the blink of an eye he is on another world. Although he liked to read transmigration novels and sometimes even dreamt being transmigrated, that did not mean he really wanted to transmigrate . However who could have thought that such a thing could really happened to him.

Alexander signed and threw himself on the bed. Looking at the stone celing he couldn't help but sign. Heavens taking the internet from an otaku is simply a punishment worse than death. There were no entertainment facilities in this place. How could he live everyday ? .

Perhaps because he had just received too many memories and obtained the unexpected joy of the system, Alexander was really excited for a while. Now that the excitement is over, he suddenly felt a wave of exhaustion. Unknowingly he fell asleep.

What Alexander did not know was that, the moment he fell asleep, the door to his room opened and Rose stuck her head in and took a peek at Alexander who was asleep. She tiptoed to the bed and saw that he was asleep. She quietly picked up the blanket on the bed to cover Alexander.

Then she stood by the bed and looked quietly at Alexander who was sleeping like a baby, the corner of her mouth curled up into a smile.

" Young Master, you have to work hard. The Frost family is relying on you.

With that, she walked out, closing the door gently behind her.

Just as Rose walked out of Alexander's room, Watson walked over and looked at Rose.

" Rose how is the Young Master ? what is he doing ".

Rose said " Nothing, he is asleep ".

Watson nodded and said, " Go and see if your grandmother has finished cooking. When it's ready call the Young Master to eat. With that he signed and shook his and walked back.

Rose looked at her grandfather. She knows how her grandfather feels very well. Her grandfather had given his entire life to the Frost family and saw it fall before his eyes. How would he not be sad.

Rose was very clear about the situation.

The entire Frost family is now relying on her grandfather now. This Young Master Alexander did not know anything at all. Now she only hoped Alexander would be sensible and stop fooling around.

Otherwise the Frost family would really have no hope.

But even if Alexander becomes sensible, he had to learn a lot of things. In the past , he was just a scourge and a prodigal son who was a typical example of ignorance and incompetence. He had no experience at managing a family at all.

If he was sensible and willing to learn it would be fine. However, if he was unwilling to learn and manage the family blindly, with their current situation, they would fall to a dire straits within a few years.

Although the Frost family was not too rich in the past, there were still a Noble family.

Moreover, although they had been convicted, their assets were not confiscated. In total they had about 200,000 gold coins. This was not a small sum.

But now, the money had been exchanged for various supplies and resources, there were only more than a 1000 gold coins left. If the Frost family was as extravagant as before, they would probably starve to death.

Now, Alexander's actions determined the survival of the Frost family.
