Sitting by the campfire where Fila cooked, Li Wei thought for a mont, then said to Fila and Penny, "Last night, while I was keeping watch outside, I encountered several wolves. You should be careful when going out from now on."
Hearing Li Wei's words, the newly arrived Sam imdiately beca visibly tense, his face turning much paler. Penny, however, didn't seem concerned, "Don't worry, my dear brother, even if wolves co, I can chop one to death with a single swing of my axe!"
As for Fila, she didn't appear particularly surprised or alard either, but she didn't say anything.
Clearly, she seed unwilling to trigger new plot developnts.
Or perhaps, she wasn't afraid of those wolves?
Li Wei speculated while observing. After finishing his al, he went into the house and fell asleep imdiately, sleeping until the sun was high in the sky. Apart from feeling sowhat hungry, he felt extrely good, bursting with energy.
When he stepped out of the house, he saw that Fila had already taken the ox out to gather resources again.
She showed no concern about the wolf pack at all.
Penny and Sam were bustling with activity, working enthusiastically.
"Let's build a fence today," Li Wei thought to himself. He no longer wanted to patrol the wheat field at night, nor did he want to confront the wolf pack again.
He had experience building fences, and could directly select materials from the firewood section - these were all family property, so no need to be polite.
Although he lacked proper tools, Li Wei now brimd with vitality, feeling like he had endless energy throughout his body, so his progress was quite fast.
He didn't even need to dig holes, simply thrusting wooden poles directly into the soil, then lifting a rock and pounding them down repeatedly until they reached a certain depth.
These wooden poles were then secured together with woven grass ropes.
While they certainly couldn't withstand a wild boar's charge, they were sufficient to deter ordinary small animals.
Like this, in just one day, Li Wei completed the construction of the wheat field fence.
He didn't even feel particularly tired, nor excessively hungry. Even during evening, when his condition was at its lowest, his Stamina Points hadn't dropped below 50.
He hadn't even eaten dinner yet, but after sitting on the ground and resting for less than five minutes, his Stamina Points began climbing 1 1.
After eating dinner, the recovery speed beca even faster, restoring to 90 points in less than half an hour.
With this condition, he could work hard for three days and three nights without any problem.
Looking at the newly arrived brother Sam - he actually hadn't done much work throughout the day, yet was already exhausted like a dead dog, unable to even notice Penny's flirtatious glances.
As for Penny, she remained energetic, but Li Wei couldn't tell where she had allocated her Free Attribute Points?
Her brick kiln was already built and currently lit, with black smoke billowing and flas leaping high. To be fair, her craftsmanship was quite impressive.
"Penny, do you need my help keeping watch and adding firewood at night?"
Li Wei proactively approached, not to curry favor, but to get a share, similar to how he previously participated in building the house and thus got free accommodation.
He still hoped that after Penny's blacksmith shop was built, she would repair his shovel.
Well, that was his only wish.
"Oh, my dear brother, you've already worked hard all day. How could I bear to make you help? Go rest quickly."
Penny wore a friendly smile on her face, speaking caring words, but only her eyes carried a hint of mockery - thinking of currying favor with now? Too late.
"Alright then."
Li Wei wasn't surprised either, turning back to rest in the house. Actually, he also needed to complete the land reclamation task assigned by the Family Head.
Previously, working himself to death for a whole day, he could only reclaim thirty square ters of land.
But with his current condition, he could easily manage forty square ters per day without problems.
One mu of land was only six hundred sixty square ters, and he had already reclaid close to four hundred square ters. At most, he could finish it in a few more days.
Then, he could take on other work.
Such as chopping trees, going out hunting, fishing, and such.
It's just that wolf pack was quite troubleso.
They clearly had their eyes on them, but more likely appeared after upgrading to Level 1 Camp.
Hmm, that was also a possibility.
He slept well through the night, and even when several wolf howls sounded, they didn't disrupt his sleep.
The others, however, were trembling with fear, acting as if facing a formidable enemy, especially Fila and the newly arrived Sam - they finally believed what Li Wei had said.
The forr looked murderous, holding a Short Knife, appearing ready to fight wild wolves to the death, while the latter was nearly broken, trembling uncontrollably.
As for Penny, she didn't step into the house all night, seriously firing her bricks.
This was soone who knew how to make things happen.
But different trades are separated by barriers - Li Wei didn't know what enhancents Penny's two-star Craftsman Card could bring her?
He only knew that when he looked at the young sprouts in the wheat field now, he could actually distinguish so subtle details that he would never have noticed before.
Especially between wheat sprouts and weeds - with just a glance, everything beca clear.
Speaking of which, it seed about ti to weed the wheat field.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, Li Wei went to the simple warehouse and took out an old hoe from the damaged ox cart.
This was a sharp tool for weeding the wheat field, while also able to loosen soil around wheat sprouts to promote growth.
Entering the wheat field enclosure, looking at the lush, well-growing wheat sprouts, Li Wei felt quite happy because this was completely his personal property.
Although only one hundred fifty square ters, it should yield about one to two hundred jin of wheat. After all, his current professional talent could increase farmland fertility by 40%, comparable to modern fertilization.
Weeding was relatively simple work. Even though Li Wei had never done it before, he quickly got the hang of it, basically finishing before noon.
Over the next few days, he continued working hard in the adjacent public field, finally reclaiming one mu of farmland by evening four days later, officially completing the Family Head's task.
It could be said that reclaiming this mu of farmland, due to lack of tools, had delayed him for a month. Not only did it consu all other experience he had previously accumulated, but it also left him completely behind Penny and Fila.
His hopes of competing for Family Head were temporarily hopeless.
At this mont, a line of information appeared.
[You have completed the task assigned by the Family Head, successfully reclaiming one mu of farmland. You have obtained 100 points of Farming Experience, while also obtaining five points of Family Contribution. Current total contribution is 18 points.]
As this ssage disappeared, several more ssages appeared in succession.
Here it cos, here it cos, the familiar Plot Kill!
Those two bitches Penny and Fila couldn't wait any longer.
Previously, because Li Wei hadn't completed the farmland reclamation task, this ant the Family Head's main task line was still ongoing, so initiating Plot Kill wasn't allowed.
But now, finally, all restrictions were lifted.
[Professional Craftsman *** initiated Plot Kill, hoping mother Fila gets bitten to death by a poisonous snake within twenty-four hours. Do you agree? Friendly reminder: whether you refuse, agree, or abstain, you don't need to pay experience, and your choice will profoundly affect subsequent task plots.]
[Professional Chef *** initiated Plot Kill, hoping daughter Penny gets struck dead by lightning within twenty-four hours. Do you agree?]
[Professional Craftsman *** initiated Plot Kill, hoping brother George gets bitten to death by the wolf pack within twenty-four hours. Do you agree?]
[Professional Chef *** initiated Plot Kill, hoping son-in-law Sam gets crushed to death by a rock within twenty-four hours. Do you agree?]
