Planting the Field

"Master Rabbink!" Red called.

Master Rabbink started to feel there were some cold sweats on its fur. What It was afraid the most happened.

"Yes?"

"Do universe store accept this seed?"

"N... Yes." Master Rabbink could feel there was a Heavenly Tribulation getting closer. Heavenly Tribulation was the punishment that couldn't be avoided. In 1 word, it is frightening.

"What happened?" Red felt it was strange. [Why Master Rabbink seems to fell unwell?]

"Nothing. Gwahahaha." Master Rabbink laughed. It didn't want to sell such common mortal items in its Number 1 Store in the entire Endless Universes. However, based on the manual 'Complete Idiot's Guide to Turn A Very Old Phoenix into A God For Dummies'. It couldn't reject such a request.

"I want to sell these seeds to your store." Red couldn't use the seed. "Would that make the store sell a fresh one?"

"Fresh one?" Master Rabbink felt humiliated. Its store always sold a perfected one.

"So, it couldn't?"

"What is impossible for the Number 1 Store in the entire Universes?" Master Rabbink bragged. "It is not the fresh one. It is the perfected one." Master Rabbink proudly said.

"However, since it is a seed. I could only give the perfect one that the universe had produced. As a Creator, I couldn't modify a creature's genetics. That is the duty of you, the Universe God. To build the strongest fighter against The Dark. I am only helping The Light to train the Apprentice God."

Red couldn't believe what he heard. The seeds would be perfected. His trouble was disappeared.

He used the I Want to Buy skill. It was still the same hypermarket. Red only needed to think in his head to move his body in the store. He came to the purchasing counter.

"You can put the items that you want to sell at the counter. This store could access non-living storages as long as you touch them when you entered the store. We also couldn't accept buying and selling living animals and demon beasts. Some plants also might be rejected." Master Rabbink explained.

Red quickly sold his paddy seed to the store.

[Where I can buy the fresh one?]

"The perfected one!" Master Rabbink corrected this old Phoenix. "You can go to the raw food aisle, medicine aisle, seed aisle, or many more. We didn't lack any floor space here." Master Rabbink proudly said.

Red visited the Seed aisle. He found there were several seeds on the place. He didn't remember he brought his farming seeds as an Arch God. All his spirit farming tools and materials were kept in his palace garden.

"I don't think I have these many seeds?"

"There were some seeds in your storage ring. Perhaps, you use them for medicine." Master Rabbink said.

Red could believe that to some extents. He often prepared for the danger and brought many medicines.

"Trust me! I found all of them in your storage ring."

"Yes." Red couldn't remember all his items. His storage ring was huge. It was enough to put several small planets. Perhaps he threw thing there and forgot about that.

[Could I plant them?] Red asked when he saw those seeds. Nong Min would never see those seeds in his life if he didn't get Red's memory. Perhaps even the strongest cultivator in this planet wouldn't. They all were universe treasures.

[I should focus.] He went to the paddy seed.

[5 Ton Pandan Wangi Paddy Seed]

[Description: The best paddy seed of Pandan Wangi variety. It had a strong pandanus smell and high productivity output. This variety created by Budi, a million epoch ago.]

[Buying Price: 0 Energy]

[Selling Price: 1 Energy]

"I round the buying price down and selling price up. That is a common procedure. This Rabbink need profit." Master Rabbink explained.

"Ok." Red thought to the selling price panels.

[Do you want to pay 1 energy for 5 Ton Pandan Wangi Paddy Seed?] A notification heard.

He purchased 5 Ton Pandan Wangi. It stood like 5 boulders next to him in the store.

[How could I bring this back?]

"You only need to touch it and use the same skill to return."

Red returned with the 5 sacks of Pandan Wangi seeds. It was lucky there was nobody there. Most people were gathering in the village square.

However, Red couldn't do anything to this 5 tons seeds. It was very cheap for him, but it was very large and heavy. His storage couldn't put the sacks. Nong Min's house was also small. It would take half the space for these sacks. The biggest problem was he couldn't bring them through the door. Each sack was larger than his door.

Based on Nong Min memory, there was a huge granary in the village where people stored their harvests. Then, It would be sold together to the purchasing merchants. Such merchants would only come during the harvest season.

"Whoa!!!" He heard somebody screamed.

"What are those things next to you?!" Nong Xie screamed.

[I hope he didn't see the sacks suddenly appeared.] Red thought.

"It is safe." Master Rabbink appeared. "My store delivery system is good. We will warn you if you were hiding and the delivery might alert other people."

"You already had this much harvest? I remembered you were still preparing your field."

"This is the seeds that I saved from last farming season." Red made an excuse.

"All of them? This could be used in a quarter of the total village field."

"No. The rest was my saving. I need some money this season."

"I see."

"Why do you visit me?" Red felt it was strange. Nong Min rarely had people visited him.

"I will to the City tomorrow with Xi San's husband. I want to look for my brother. I heard you need to purchase something in the city. Do you want me to help you?"

Red smiled. The villagers were often the best people. They were friendly and loved to help.

"I had some in my mind. Could you sell some of these seeds? I don't have any money right now." Red would only need a quarter of the sack.

[Should I purchase more sacks from the store and turned it into money?] He thought. [No. I will do it only when my harvest wasn't enough. I don't know what the future would require me. I also need to plant some for the mission.]

"This would take some space on the wagon. Help me to bring it to Xi San's house."

Red helped by Nong Xie started to transport the sack. He only kept enough seeds for his field.

Xi San's husband accepted him. He was a bit fatter than Nong Min. Red thought that Nong Min was better looking, but this man truly loved Xi San.

[She made a good decision.] Red could fairly judge since he wasn't fully Nong Min. He was Nong Min who was a reincarnated of Red Everflame.

Red would give some share to the pair for helping him to sell the product. He also requested some farming supplies. It was expected the seeds could be sold into a rice processing merchant. This would gain Red 50 silvers.

6 days later Nong Min was in his field. Yesterday he got his farming supplies and money from Xi San's husband and Nong Xie. Nong Xie's brother was injured and couldn't return yet.

Red himself had prepared Nong Xie's field all this day. He managed to plow the field. He also channeled some water to his field. The field had turned into a puddle of mud. It was the most suitable condition for paddy rice. He wore his boots and jumped into the field.

He started to put the germinated seeds into the field. He had already prepared the seeds during the past 5 days.

Red wouldn't directly plant the paddy. He would need to wait until the seedling had 3-5 leaves before he planted them into the field. This process would take another 12-20 days to ensure the seedlings had a better success rate.

It took Red another day to prepare the seedbed.

Another 20 Days passed. During this time, Red continued to prepare the rest of the field. He removed all weeds, hoed, plowed, and tilled the field. It was finally the time for him to move his paddy seedling into the field.

At the same time, Red had started to be influenced by Nong Min more. He became friendlier to the villagers. He started to think the people around him were his family. Red also started to feel that need to distance himself from Xi San's husband. He started to enjoy the slow and simple villager life.

[This life is calming.] Red smiled bitterly.

What he enjoyed the most was the time he spent cultivating his field. It used to be only a profession where he competed with the stupid dragon. This time it was his life. [Is there a reason why I become a farmer in my first reincarnation? To cultivate the land. To cultivate the body.] He fell into deep thought while he planted the seedling.

[Lv 0 Mission: Plant 20.000 paddy rice.]
