Song Tian's Farm And His Daily Life

"If I can see the fish from here, isn"t this kinda too easy?" Song Tian muttered.

Song Tian decided to go left following the river to see if there"s deeper water, he didn"t go to the right because it"s where the waterfall located.

Before Song Tian walked too far from his cabin, he slapped his forehead, "Ah, am I being senile at such a young age? I even forgot I didn"t have the bait yet."

Song Tian walked back to his cabin and took several amounts of money to get some bait at the local market.

Arrived at the fishing section, Song Tian went to the fishing shop right at the entrance and asked the staff, "Boss, can you recommend me some baits for a beginner? I want to fish some in the river here," He asked.

The staff answered, "River? I recommend you using the worms because it can catch a wide variety of fish. But you can easily collect the worms in the dirt, are you sure you want to buy it?"

Song Tian smiled at the staff, not only he recommend ones but he also advised to get it by himself since it"s so easy to get.

Song Tian said, "I will just buy it here boss, since you"re so honest about this that means you can be trusted when it came to this. Also, I want to buy other stuff."

Song Tian decided to buy the bag for his Basic Fishing Rod, small containers for hook and bait and also the fishing net.

Satisfied with the all stuff he got, he goes back to his cabin and put the Basic Fishing Rod on his new bag.

"d.a.m.n, now I almost leveled up to become a real angler haha," Song Tian laughed and said, "Xiao Yi, open the fishing interface. I want to buy some hooks."

"Okay! Make sure to buy a lot of it master," Song Yi giggled.

In the end, Song Tian ended up buying 5 of the freshwater hooks small and big with a total of $150.

Smiled bitterly at the price of the hooks, Song Tian shook his head and walks along the river.

After walking several meters away from his farmland and not long after he ended up in a big lake.

Song Tian could see there"s a couple of peoples fishing on the side of the lake and some of them on are fishing on the boat.

"Woah, it seems that there"s a lot of fish on this lake," Song Tian muttered as he looks at peoples on this lake.

On the side of the lake, Song Tian already got the spot and put the fishing bag and small bucket to the ground.

Letting out the Basic Fishing Rod, Song Tian started to open the hooks container. Looking at the small hook, there"s no hole or any slight bend in it, and he asked, "Xiao Yi, how can I put the line to the hook if there"s no holes or any bend on the eye area?"

Song Yi laughed and said, "Master, sorry I forgot to tell you. Just line up the hook on the tip of the line, and it"ll connect automatically. If you want to change or remove the hook, just pull it with a slight force. Only master can remove the hook, it can"t be removed by others."

Song Tian then tries to do as to Song Yi said and the hook already attached to it as if it has a magnet on it.

Putting the worms on the hook, Song Tian stood up, "Xiao Yi, show me the quest list. Just in case if there"s a fishing mission on it today hehe," he said.

Song Yi laugh could be heard, and the quest scroll appeared in front of Song Tian with a lot of side quest on it.

Looking at all the quest listed on the scrolls, Song Tian smiled bitterly, "No fishing quest at all? I guess luck"s not on my side today," he said.

Song Yi giggled, "Don"t worry master, wait until 00:01 AM for the quest list to refresh."

Song Tian shook his head, "It"s too long. Forget it, I will just fish like a normal person for now."

Song Yi laughed, "It"s not normal fishing since you"re already using the Basic Fishing Rod."

"I will just try to cast it nearby since I don"t really know how the fishing works," Song Tian said as he slightly twists his body and gently swung the Basic Fishing Rod.

"Plop" The hook already down in the water and Song Tian kept his arms gripping the rod, "I forgot to buy the floats! Xiao Yi, a regular float can be attached to the Basic Fishing Rod, right?"

Song Yi answered, "Yes, you can actually attach the normal float to it. I forgot to tell you that when we"re still on the fishing shop earlier, hehe."

Song Tian smiled bitterly, "Well, I can just buy it later. For now, I"ll just hold this rod so I can at least feel if there"s fish coming to bite."

Not long after, he felt the rod twitched, and Song Tian decided to pull it.

With slight resistant, The Basic Fishing Rod curved as if the thing he pulls is some kind of big stuff.

Song Tian tries to maneuver his rod movement left, up, right, pull like the fishing games he usually plays on his PC.

Not long after, the fish seems to be not resisting anymore, and Song Tian decided to pull it again.

"Woah, what fish is that?" Song Tian looked at the fish hung in the air, and Song Tian picks his net with another hand for the landing.

"Xiao Yi, can I see the stats of this fish?" Song Tian asked.

"Beep beep, that features still locked master hehe," Song Yi giggled.

Song Tian shook his head, and he removes the hook from the fish he got then put it on the small bucket.

Song Tian put another worm on it, and this time, Song Tian decided to cast a bit long as he put more power when he swung the rod.

Almost an hour later, Song Tian already got 9 fish, but Song Tian sighed as he looks at the bucket, "All of them are the same types of fish. Maybe different bait or different spots will affect it," As he decided to wrap all of his fishing gears to leave.

As he walked Song Tian can see a man in his thirties seems to be having hard times to pull the rod and his rod already curved to the limit.

Song Tian walked closer as he curious what is this man got to makes him like this.

As Song Tian got closer, he noticed the man is a Caucasian.

The Caucasian man noticed Song Tian and said, "Young man, come and help me pull out this big boy!" he said.

Song Tian didn"t seem to be surprised to see Caucasians here as the country he lived in is a multicultural country, and there"s a lot of people over the world who live here to settle down since this country just found not long ago.

Song Tian asked, "How do I help you? By pulling you from the back or what?"

The Caucasian man said, "Just pull me from the back, pull it like there"s no tomorrow! You don"t have to worry about my gears, just pull me."

Song Tian goes to the back of the Caucasian man, and he grabs him from behind. From other people perspective, it"s as if Song Tian wants to German Suplex, this man.

Song Tian pulled the man, but he noticed that there"s indeed something big pulling the Caucasian man and Song Tian increasing his force to pull the man and from the back he can see big fish is coming out of the water.

The Caucasian man excitedly laughed, "Yes, finally I can get this big boy hahaha" And he said "Young man, please hold the rod for me. I want to pick the fish for my trophy," the Caucasian man handed his fishing rod to Song Tian.

After the man successfully retrieved the fish and put it on the big container, the Caucasian man said, "Thank you, young man, without your help it"s probably going hard to pull this big boy out of the water."

Song Tian laughed, "Don"t worry, it"s my first time to see someone caught fish that big with a rod. By the way, what kind of fish is that?" He asked as he looked at the big fish on the container.

The Caucasian man answered, "It"s black carp, this big boy probably weighed around 50kg," and he looked at Song Tian, "I"m Bob Lawrence. What"s your name, young man? You already finished your fishing session?" He asked.

Song Tian smiled, "I"m Song Tian, I live on a farm not far away from here. I just look for some fish to prepare breakfast. Since it"s my first time fishing, can you tell me if this fish is edible or not?" Song Tian asked as he shows the small bucket to Bob.

Looking at the fish in a small bucket, Bob laughed, "Aw, too bad. I was about to take you to my secret fishing spot in this area. This is catfish. Song Tian, you can make a lot of foods from this. You can fry it, or you can also grill it, but clean it first," he said.

Song Tian said, "Thank you, as long as it"s edible I"m relieved. I"m going back to my farm. If you got the time come visit me, it"s not far away from here."

Bob laughed, "Alright, I will come once I had the times. I"m also going to change to a different spot for another fish."

Several minutes later, Song Tian back to his cabin. He let the catfish on the small bucket as he look on the tutorial for making a simple catfish dish.

There are several recipes on the website, but he looks at the simple ones. As he follows the recipe on his phone, Song Tian starting to clean the fish.

Several minutes after, Song Tian takes the fried catfish out of the frying wok and let the oil out of the fried fish.

Looking at the fried fish in front of him, he took a bite first, "Wow, just the fish alone is already this crispy. I"m glad I decided to marinate it with some spices before fry it."

"But it needs some condiment, I think there"s some Carolina Reaper on the fridge," Song Tian looked at the fridge but left in disappointment.

Looking some pepper on his fridge, Song Tian sighed, "Ah, I guess the ghost pepper will do. I can make this into sambal I learned the internet," As Song Tian gets some garlic, shallots, salt, and some sugar.

After done with making sambal, Song Tian put some rice on his plate and eat the fried fish.

Not long after, Song Tian already finished his breakfast, "Wow, what a nice combination. If this sambal created with Carolina Reaper, it would be more delicious," He muttered.

After that, Song Tian cleaning all his dishes and goes outside. He went to the planted crops and looked at cabbages he planted.

"It still had 1 day left, that means tomorrow will be harvest day for cabbages," Song Tian said after looking at the stats of cabbages.

Song Tian took a shower and drives his car to the seeds shop. On his way, Song Tian still pondered to what fruit trees he"s gonna plant.

Arrived at the parking lot, Song Tian steps out of his car and goes to the seed store.

Song Tian picks the shopping cart and goes to the garlic stands, "Hmm, I think I"m going to buy a lot of it so I can experiment with the quant.i.ties of seeds on tilled soil," He said as he picks up a lot of garlic seeds bag and put it to his chart.

Song Tian went to the staff and asked, "Excuse miss, can you tell me where to get apple saplings in this store?"

The woman turned back to see the young man, "Isn"t this the young man back then who buys the strawberry and cabbage seeds?" She thought in her mind and said, "Come with me, I will lead you to the saplings area."

Song Tian followed the staff as he goes to the saplings area. Arrived at the place, Song Tian could see a lot of saplings from different types of trees.

The staff said, "Here"s the apple seeds and I remember you when you came here to buy the strawberry and cabbage seeds. When you plant the trees, make sure not to plant it on 6 meters radius from the planted crops," As she advised.

The staff continued, "If you ever need advice, just ask me. I"m Tanaka Miyu, what"s your name?" As she introduced herself and handed her business card.

Song Tian smiled as he took the card and said, "My name is Song Tian. Thanks, and I will come to ask if there"s any problem regarding the plants."

After talking for several minutes with Tanaka Miyu, Song Tian also buy a lot of organic fertilizers and bid farewell to her.

On the road, Song Tian excitedly said, "With these apple saplings and garlic seeds, I"m somehow nervous yet excited at the same time. I can"t wait to test the result of different quant.i.ties of seeds on each tilled soils and the effect of fertilizers."

Song Yi laughed, "Now, that"s the way to go master!" she said.
