As they were busy with these tasks, Li Pan was also extrely occupied, having to inspect both farms daily and direct three Wood Power Users to rediate and restore the crops, ensuring there were no issues with the land.
The rest of the ti, she followed Gu Ye in making batches of canned fruit and pickles, which were now also sold in their shop and were gradually selling quite well. Winter was approaching, and everyone had begun to store up winter supplies.
Those who had experienced hunger had grown accustod to stockpiling, grabbing whatever was available first, for having food at ho ant there was no panic.
Corn and barley were to be ground into flour for their own consumption, which Shi Lei and others were busy with.
With just over a month left, Xue Dong had asked people from the base to co and build additional houses.
The houses were too cramped, and it was not appropriate for n and won to live together, especially with children at ho, so separation was necessary.
They decided to extensively build two rows of houses for both No.7 Farm and No.8 Farm, with extras to be used as storage, ensuring no waste.
People from the base ca to build the houses; No.8 Farm had a particularly spacious courtyard with vacant land purposely left on both sides, where the two rows of houses were to be constructed into two stories.
This addition of two double-story buildings would provide about forty rooms, including several bathrooms, living rooms, and kitchens on both floors.
Similar construction was necessary for No.7 Farm, as seasonal workers would also need to stay for a few days, and you couldn’t just have them sleep on the floor.
Then, they needed to dig two more caves, with two more rows of building space for storage and livestock areas, mainly because the animal population had also increased and seed to have outgrown the space.
The living density of the animals couldn’t be too high; otherwise, it could easily lead to epidemic diseases and make cleaning inconvenient. It was best to take advantage of the construction crew’s presence and build everything simultaneously.
Furthermore, the boundary walls had to be thickened, with unfinished sections completely fortified with electrical fencing.
Liu Qian and several others were responsible for directing everyone to build the houses according to requirents.
The livestock area also needed water pipes for easier cleaning and a stove, as it would get cold in winter and require heating.
The farm began to implent its first tap water system, needing piping and the installation of a large water filtration system, all of which would cost a considerable sum.
Currently, only their two farms were installing these systems, and this total investnt would be over two hundred thousand yuan, specifically for a single-pipe water system and a drip irrigation system, even with a discount for being among the first to install them.
The cost of building the houses was calculated separately, and they had spent nearly five hundred thousand yuan altogether. The more they earned, the faster they spent.
In October, the dicinal materials Li Pan planted were ready for harvest. The base sent a High-level Wood Power User to oversee the harvest, fearing she wouldn’t handle her first attempt well, which could lead to significant losses if the quality of the dicinal materials was poor, halving their price.
This ti, Pei Yuan ca to collect the dicinal materials. He was the one who had received Li Pan’s Seventh-level Crystal Core last ti, a Zhenhua-level high-level Wood Power User and currently the only Zhenhua-level superpower user at the base.
Superpower users at the Zhenhua level were very few, literally countable on one hand, and were considered extrely valuable talents.
“Pan’er, do you rember ?”
“You are…”
“I’m Pei Yuan, I have been working with your father for several years. The Seventh-level Crystal Core you had last ti was used by . I’ve co especially to thank you this ti.”
“Oh, so you’re Uncle Pei whom I t when I was a child. You’re too kind—it’s good that it could be used.”
Only then did Li Pan suddenly rember; she was too young back then, only six years old, and couldn’t rember clearly.
“Uncle, please co inside. Let’s have so tea at the house. It’s freshly roasted tea, grown by myself.”
Li Pan warmly ushered him into the house.
“Sure, I’ll give it a try.”
Pei Yuan had looked at her farm, which was full of pastoral scenery and clearly ticulously managed, the best of the several farms so far.
“Uncle, have so tea,” she offered.
“I heard you also grow dicinal materials, so I specifically ca over. I have quite the expertise in cultivating dicinal materials. Also, being a high-level superpower user yourself, you must have noticed so unique aspects,” Pei Yuan comnted.
“Yes, I haven’t fully figured it out yet; I’m learning as I go along,” she admitted.
“No worries, that’s exactly why I’m here today. Both of us being high-level Wood Power Users, you can refer to my experiences. I know sothing about the characteristics of the Star Tree and can explain them to you in detail.”
Pei Yuan had specifically co to express his gratitude. After much consideration, he thought that enhancing Li Pan’s abilities was more important than giving gifts.
Material possessions can run out one day, but personal skills are different, they follow you for a lifeti.
Pei Yuan took out his two notebooks and pushed them towards her.
“This is a record of my years of experience, one notebook is a summary of the experiences with the usage directions of the superpower after advancing, including the growth directions and abilities of various types of Wood Elent superpowers’ Companion Spirit Plants,” he explained.
“The other notebook is about my experience in cultivating plant-based dicinal materials over the years, the effects of various Spiritual dicines, and the toxicity attack points of Poisonous Flowers and Grass among other things, I’ve made an album of it,” he added.
“Wow! So comprehensive,” she exclaid.
Li Pan looked at the notebooks, nodding repeatedly.
“These two notebooks have been with for many years, now I’m giving them to you.”
“Really?”
Li Pan could hardly believe it.
“Soone has to pass these things on, entrusting them to soone for further understanding and learning. I think you are the best choice,” he affird.
“Thank you, Uncle. I really appreciate it, I will put in the effort,” she responded.
“Also, you ascended to high-level too quickly, many skills you might not have even discovered yet. If you have any questions, you can ask , I’ll do my best to answer them, and I can also demonstrate my high-level skills to give you so inspiration. Whatever you don’t quite understand or don’t know how to ask about, it’s all recorded in those notebooks, you’ll need ti to digest it.”
“Okay, I want to ask, why is there a sensation of stagnation when treating plants, should I start with myself or with the Star Tree?” she inquired.
“You cannot entirely depend on the Companion Spirit Plant. If you cannot grow yourself, the Companion Spirit Plant will also be limited. Rember, you are the main, it is supplentary; don’t get the relationship wrong,” he advised.
“Oh, I should use my own skills more, develop my own high-level skills, with the Star Tree supporting ,” she understood.
“Right.”
Following that, Li Pan asked her questions in detail and gained so insights. Although she could not fully master them, she at least knew where the problem lay.
Pei Yuan was very busy; he brought a High Level Wood Power User specifically to collect dicinal materials, while he demonstrated his high-level skills to Li Pan, giving her a firsthand experience.
Actually, at this high-level stage, Li Pan could engage in combat, depending on which direction she wanted to develop. The Wood Elent has always had two developnt directions, one being combat, and the other being healing and managing growth and decay, to perceive more deeply the charm of nature.
Only at the Zhenhua level is one qualified to care for Spirit Plants, to feel the spiritual energy within each Spirit Plant, each of which has distinct spiritual energy molecules. It’s not simply about crudely inputting your Wood Elent superpower; that would kill the Spirit Plant in minutes.
The differences here are vast, and Pei Yuan took this opportunity to explain them in detail to her. He even brought a Spirit Plant for her to feel the difference in the molecules, which was also very helpful for cultivating dicinal materials.
Pei Yuan’s visit had indeed opened the eyes of the sowhat isolated Li Pan, showing her that her previous experiences were just a narrow part of what the Wood Elent could offer, and that there was still much more to explore.
