Leisurely Life: I Have Ten Thousand Acres of Grassland
Chapter 231 - 229: Lottery Rewards and Grassland Q&A!
The animals on the farm were all safe and sound, and Jiang Feng took advantage of the weekend to take Xiaojin Hua on a trip to Hohhot.
Although it was a date for Xiaojin Hua, there was mutual affection between Jiang Feng and Liu Yiyi too.
With family support, Liu Yiyi had already accepted Jiang Feng in her heart.
Jiang Feng, through their interactions, felt that Liu Yiyi was a rare good girl.
As a result, the relationship progressed swiftly during this date.
While shopping, Jiang Feng held her hand, and Liu Yiyi didn’t resist; however, they both got a bit nervous and sweaty while holding hands.
Later, they went to a private cinema to watch a movie in a closed room.
For the two-hour movie, they kissed for at least an hour and a half.
Liu Yiyi, being an innocent young lady, hadn’t experienced this before.
When Jiang Feng kissed her, she initially resisted slightly, but then completely lost herself.
Of course, since it was a private cinema, a place to watch movies, they didn’t do anything too excessive.
Jiang Feng just satisfied his craving for touch and taste.
After coming out, it was as if they had become official.
With their identity changed, Jiang Feng holding her hand now felt very natural, and hugging and cuddling were no longer an issue.
Then, they went to explore Hu Shi, finding the restaurant with the best reputation for a meal.
The two confirmed their romantic relationship and began interacting as lovers.
Jiang Feng felt very comfortable in his heart.
The Border Collie and Australian Milk Candy were also always together.
The air was filled with the scent of love everywhere.
Jiang Feng and Liu Yiyi both had their own things to attend to.
After confirming their relationship, they began the rhythm of dating.
After the weekend, Jiang Feng returned to the ranch.
Life moved forward amidst busyness, with its bittersweet moments.
There were still many things to do at the farm.
After returning to the ranch, Jiang Feng settled the popularity value from the recent period.
Lately, the total daily popularity value was around 1.2 million.
After more than half a month, it accumulated to over 23 million.
"Two Top Level Lottery draws, three Advanced Lottery draws."
Jiang Feng chose to use the system.
"Host chooses Top Level Lottery, drawing in progress..."
"Congratulations, host, you’ve acquired the skill: Feline Affinity."
"Feline Affinity: Feline animals feel a sense of affinity from the host, especially effective on unfamiliar feline animals, less effective on familiar ones."
The first draw was a skill.
Feline Affinity, this skill was fairly useful.
After all, there are many feline animals in nature, and it would be good to encounter one.
"Congratulations, host, you’ve received an item: Golden Armor (Legs)"
"Golden Armor (Legs): A pair of armor legs crafted from pure gold, fitting the host’s leg length."
The second reward was a golden reward.
Jiang Feng nodded slightly.
So far, he’s drawn a Golden Helmet, a golden torso, and now golden legs.
With a few more draws, it might be possible to collect a complete set of Golden Armor.
That would make him a Golden Saint.
"Host chooses Advanced Lottery, drawing in progress...."
"Congratulations, host, you’ve received an item:"
"Large freezer: A large freezer that can store food."
"Plowing machine: A machine for plowing compatible with tractors, can sow seeds."
"Tang Blade: A long Tang Blade with a sheath, already sharpened, extremely sharp."
The items drawn from the Advanced Lottery were all quite decent and useful.
Jiang Feng first checked the information on the large freezer.
The freezer was big with doors for entry.
It’s used to store fresh vegetables, especially useful in winter.
Since it’s too cold in winter here, trips to buy groceries decrease, so buying more at once is most comfortable.
The plowing machine didn’t need much attention, as he had many machines here compatible with tractors.
And then there’s the Tang Blade.
Jiang Feng took out the Tang Blade.
The Tang Blade was extremely cool, fulfilling a man’s all fantasies about swords and blades.
This Tang Blade had a black handle and sheath, seamlessly integrated, with a rough texture, and engraved with various patterns.
Jiang Feng drew out the sheath.
Suddenly, the sharp blade appeared in his eyes.
The blade was straight and red with complex floral patterns at one end.
The other end was the sharp edge.
This blade was highly artistic, exuding a young hero’s aura.
"Not bad."
Jiang Feng also liked such blades.
Playing with it slightly, he felt a bit like his childhood days cutting grass with a stick.
However, this tool is sharp and poses some danger, so it needs to be kept safely.
On Monday morning, Jiang Feng decided to start a live broadcast.
It’s already late July, and the weather was still somewhat hot.
In about half a month, it would cool down a bit, and then the sheep could be let out to graze, just bringing them back daily to water them.
Since he didn’t broadcast over the weekend, the viewers in the live streaming room were extremely enthusiastic once he started.
[Why didn’t the host broadcast, is there something fishy?]
[Did he go meet the number one rich woman offline!]
Upon seeing the barrage of comments, Jiang Feng didn’t bother to explain where he went on the weekend.
Today is another day of herding.
Herding is much easier nowadays; there’s no need for constant supervision, just let the sheep roam and graze freely.
Once they’ve had enough, just go out and gather the herd.
Jiang Feng, feeling a bit bored, started chatting with everyone, talking about everything under the sun.
One viewer asked Jiang Feng:
[Host, do you work out regularly? Do you follow a fitness diet? Like chicken breast, protein powder, and such?]
Upon seeing this comment, Jiang Feng replied:
"It’s important to maintain basic physical activity; I exercise every few days but don’t follow a fitness diet. I believe food is one of life’s greatest pleasures."
"Fitness enthusiasts should still be cautious."
"Otherwise, there might be serious consequences."
At this point, he deliberately paused, and the viewers listened intently.
Serious consequences of fitness?
What could that be?
Then, Jiang Feng slowly continued:
"If you overdo your fitness routine, after you die, you might be chased by thousands of chickens without breasts."
Hearing his words, the viewers were momentarily stunned, then the screen was filled with question marks.
[Damn, my chicken breast suddenly lost its flavor!]
[Hahaha, I can picture that!]
[Host, keep talking if you can!]
The livestream room was relaxed and jovial.
Jiang Feng walked towards the sheep to check on the lead sheep’s condition today.
The viewers were still chatting lively.
At this point, someone sent a gift and then asked Jiang Feng:
[Host, recently a rancher installed a flushing toilet for his daughter-in-law on the prairie; how do people go to the bathroom in pastoral areas? Are they all outdoors?]
Jiang Feng saw this comment.
He receives a lot of private messages every day, which he generally ignores, but occasionally he’ll glance at them.
This question was frequently asked.
Jiang Feng smiled and said:
"In pastoral areas, where do you go to the bathroom? Isn’t it everywhere? With no people for dozens of kilometers, it doesn’t matter."
Hearing this, someone else asked:
[Why not dig a pit, wouldn’t that be better?]
Seeing this comment, Jiang Feng was amused but perplexed by the topic; he didn’t want to elaborate, but since so many people asked, he explained:
"Because the prairie has rain and wind and grass, the decomposition speed is very fast; digging a pit accelerates decomposition, but we don’t need that here."
"A gust of wind and a bit of rain, and it gets absorbed by the grass."
Seeing Jiang Feng being serious, the viewers grew even more interested.
At this point, Jiang Feng quickly added, "Many pastures have toilets, just like in my ranch, where the facilities are complete."
"In remote pastoral areas, the nearest neighbor is dozens of kilometers away, so it doesn’t matter for a few hours."
Although he explained, still someone asked:
[Host, I went to the Tibetan Area for a trip and had to go to the bathroom outdoors, and mosquitoes bit my butt several times. How can I avoid this?]
Seeing this question, Jiang Feng calmly replied:
"To avoid mosquitoes when going to the bathroom, either light a bonfire nearby or keep shaking your hips."
This batch of viewers loves to hear these quirky answers.
Shaking your hips?
Shaking your hips while going to the bathroom?
The mental image is too beautiful, I dare not imagine!
Jiang Feng mostly ignored the comments, and everyone chatted enthusiastically.
[Question: If while pooping, you encounter a person of the opposite sex coming towards you, what should you do?]
[Politely greet them: "Are you here to poop too?"]
[Observe quietly and see how they handle it!]
[Nature’s experience maxed out, there’s a kind of wild beauty to it!]
Jiang Feng didn’t respond to the barrage anymore.
His ranch is very modern, unlike pastoral areas where people live in felt tents.
Those pastoral areas with felt tents are isolated from the world, without running water or electricity, and life’s basic conditions are indeed poorer.
But his current ranch environment is good, his home is well-furnished, surrounded by mountains and water gardens, leading to a comfortable life.
The viewers were still noisily chatting, discussing their travel experiences on the prairie.
If you venture deep into the prairie, the experience isn’t great because the living conditions in pastoral areas are very rudimentary.
Inside the felt tents, there’s a smell of sheep milk, and the bedding is somewhat damp and definitely uncomfortable.
But if it’s a city-based tour, it’s okay.
Jiang Feng walked among the sheep, continuing forward.
Before long, he spotted a strong and formidable adult ram.
This ram had spiraled horns and a lush coat, looking very mighty.
It’s one of the lead sheep of the herd.
As long as it doesn’t move, the hundreds or thousands of sheep behind it won’t move either.
Jiang Feng went to check on the lead sheep’s condition.
In the future, if the sheep are let out, it’ll be up to the lead sheep to guide the herd.
Therefore, the lead sheep’s physical condition is crucial.
"This is just one lead sheep; look at the sheep behind it, all following its lead."
"Sheep have very peculiar habits."
"In deep pastoral areas, when herding, if a shepherd wants to take a nap, they’ll tie a rope from the lead sheep’s neck to their own arm." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
"That way, even if they fall asleep, as long as the lead sheep doesn’t wander, the rest won’t either."
Jiang Feng approached the lead sheep, patted its head, and then spoke to the viewers.
Hearing Jiang Feng’s words, everyone’s attention was drawn back to the lead sheep.
