The Strong Female Lead Versus The Most Miserable Male Lead-Chapter 297 - 295 Wood Carving

After Zhang Hui summarized, approximately one hundred families chose to raise both, another one hundred only wanted to raise a few chickens, and over fifty households decided to raise a pig, with the rest not interested.

After receiving the numbers, Nian Shutong told everyone to prepare the space, and as soon as they were ready, they could come collect the chickens and pigs.

Two days later, after a steady stream of pickups from the small wooden house, everyone finally settled down.

Each household strictly adhered to Nian Shutong’s requirement of cleanliness being the foremost priority.

After two days, Nian Shutong had all but finished clearing out the breeding grounds.

She, by herself along with two robots, boldly started to enclose the grounds with a very high fence.

The pigs and chickens were raised separately.

Compared to the chickens, the pigs’ roaming area was slightly smaller, but they also got houses with yards.

On the chickens’ side, not only fences were erected, but a net was also spread over the top; after all, there were really quite a few birds raised by Big Bird flying in the sky.

Now, Nian Shutong was purchasing piglets and chickens from Xiao Ba, one piglet for one thousand Star Coins and one half-grown chicken — not a chick — for one hundred Star Coins.

The prices were rather fair.

Nian Shutong bought ten thousand chickens and one thousand pigs.

After all were free-range raised, she fed the pigs some cornmeal, the chickens simply some grains, letting them roam on the grass and peck at seeds and insects.

The area had been cleared of toxins by Nian Shutong and was very safe.

However, there was also an unsafe aspect, which was that the beasts could not be stopped.

Therefore, the Little Silver Snake was left here as the first Beast God guardian; it wasn’t alone, as Big Bird had also settled here.

Because Nian Shutong had said that as long as it helped protect the animals, she would reward it with a few of its own kind, and most importantly, she would give it a Crystal Stone.

The breeding area not only had pigsties and chicken coops built, but also a few small houses for those on duty to live in.

People had to remain to take care of the animals.

And the road connecting the wooden house to the breeding area had all been repaired.

Fu Yunhe efficiently settled the accounts and sent off a group of robots.

He then bought four automated buses for everyone’s commute.

For now, the chickens and pigs were also considered to have begun their upbringing.

In the evening, after the live broadcast ended.

Outside the small wooden house, only Fu Yunhe and Nian Shutong remained, while the others had gone to rest.

The two exchanged a glance and almost in unison said, “Out of money.”

“Haha, this is the first time I’m hearing you say you’re out of money,” Nian Shutong remarked, somewhat amused. She had always thought of Fu Yunhe as an inexhaustible bank.

Fu Yunhe spread his hands, a bit regretfully saying, “I didn’t expect that despite all my efforts, I still couldn’t keep up with your pace.”

He had been really trying to earn money, but he hadn’t anticipated spending it even faster. He continued, “Just wait a few more days, I should get a portion of the game’s revenue.”

In fact, he wouldn’t have been completely broke, but after buying the latest Shadowless model, his financial situation wasn’t that great. Plus, supporting Rubble made things even worse.

“It’s fine, we make money every day, and we don’t have to spend on food and drink. There shouldn’t be any major expenses coming up.”

Fu Yunhe knew that what Nian Shutong said was true, but both of them still preferred to have some surplus funds.

Nian Shutong bent down, gesturing to Fu Yunhe.

Their heads touched as they bent forward, whispering.

“How about the robbery business?”

Nian Shutong’s question didn’t surprise Fu Yunhe at all. Unexpectedly, he felt the occupation suited Nian Shutong quite well.

“There are indeed interstellar thieves in space, but the first requirement to becoming an interstellar thief is to have your own Starship.”

“Oh…”

Nian Shutong let out a disappointed sigh and then lamented, “So robbery is a high-investment industry!”

She couldn’t afford a Starship.

These days, you can’t even afford to rob.

After a bit of conversation, Fu Yunhe stood up and left first because Ha Ha called for him.

Today was Fu Yunhe’s day for a medicinal bath, and Ha Ha, acting as his companion, was in charge of adding water and had the additional job of knocking out Fu Yunhe if he couldn’t handle it.

As Fu Yunhe walked to the door, Ha Ha considerately said, “Xiao He, if you can’t handle it, just shout. I’ll knock you out.”

Fu Yunhe just walked past Ha Ha, unperturbed, ignoring him.

It was the same ‘persuasion’ every time.

Fu Yunhe felt he had to persist, no matter how difficult it was, to not be knocked out by Ha Ha.

Ha Ha followed behind Fu Yunhe, starting his supervision of today’s medicinal bath.

Nian Shutong completely ignored them, taking the rare opportunity to get on the Star Network and casually browse around.

At this moment, the Star Network was brightly lit, shops bustling with people coming and going, laughing and joking, frolicking and playing.

Nian Shutong’s avatar was flat, unremarkable, simply walking amidst the crowd on the street.

She looked left and right, curious about what others were selling.

While walking, she reached a place selling “pots and pans.”

“Does anyone actually buy these pots?”

“Miss, this is an antique, a work of art,” a man with the image of an uncle from behind the stall said, not minding Nian Shutong’s naïve remark, and enthusiastically began his pitch.

“Look, miss, see if there’s anything you like. You never know what might become valuable one day.”

Antiques?

Nian Shutong squatted down without touching anything, just casually looking at the items from the ground.

Her gaze drifted and pointed at a piece of wood.

“Is this also an antique?”

“Eh? That’s not it!” the man carefully moved the wood back and said, “This is wood carving, and not many people have this skill anymore.”

Not many? Does that mean it’s expensive?

“How much for this carving?”

The stall owner took a careful look at Nian Shutong but couldn’t make much out.

With the mindset of better to say more than miss an opportunity, the stall owner spoke up, “If you’ve taken a liking to it, it’s yours for three hundred thousand Star Coins.”

Nian Shutong looked at the simple piece of wood with only a basic carving of a small bridge over flowing water. Three hundred thousand?

“Brother, I have a carving too, do you buy them?”

Nian Shutong’s comment caught the opposite uncle off guard!
