Chapter 5: Do Not Hesitate to Ask Questions

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Look at your brothers; which one of them is not already living a stable life as a young master of the Jiang family, and which one does not have a harem and children gathered around their knees

After all, as the traveler on the path has said, it is best to breathe in the morning sun at the moment of sunrise, while simultaneously refining essence into qi, as this is the most optimal practice

Jiang Sibai has been able to achieve success in all that he has learned over the years, and the most important aspect of this is his ability to "ask questions without feeling ashamed"

However, for now, it is still necessary to have an acre of land for cultivation

Thus, I could only squat beside the pile of grass and wood ashes, pondering for a moment, and then I had a sudden inspiration: "Old Zhong, select a mu of land for me; next year, I want to cultivate it myself"

Jiang Sibai waved his hand and said, "Don't be anxious, I have received insider information that the next three-year trial in the Luoyun Fairyland will be farming. This time, I will definitely not lose"

Tomorrow I must go to Jicheng to meet my father, so I need to pay special attention to my attire

Jiang Sibai nodded repeatedly and said: "Indeed, indeed"

He can now access the world of cultivation, which represents a completely new game in his life

This is a fox that wishes to evolve itself into a dog

Having been in this world for sixteen years, Jiang Sibai feels utterly despondent about the productivity and entertainment enjoyment, which are still in their rudimentary stages in this world

Jiang Sibai found this very reasonable and then said: "Alright, then find me a piece of land by the water source, and help me transport all this ash over there, as these are all good materials for enriching the soil"

Or it can be said that for him, bringing a sword is far more important than what clothes to wear

He simply could not resist and was dragged to the place where the grain pile had been burned, his eyes vacant and devoid of expression

Then it will be different

Butler Zhong asked in surprise: "Cultivating the land?"

It is evident that the concept of composting to enrich the soil has not yet emerged in this era

The old servant feels truly distressed in his heart

He was just about to find a good place to practice his breathing exercises when he was pulled outside by Butler Zhong to assess the damage from last night

After being busy for a while, when I turned back to think about it, I realized that Teacher Bai was already quite familiar with the aunt in the kitchen

Jiang Sibai turned his head with vacant eyes and then repeated, "What can be done?"

Thus, it is no wonder that he is the young master Xiaobai, embodying the demeanor befitting the royal bloodline of the Kingdom of Ji

This world is nothing short of a cage for him, leaving him with not a shred of expectation for his future life

As a result, he found that the experience of the local farmers mainly focused on summarizing the changes in local weather, while farming was roughly about casually scattering a handful of seeds and then allowing them to grow wildly.

Upon hearing this, Butler Zhong had no choice but to exert himself to keep up with his young master's line of thought, and then he still earnestly advised: "Young Master, the reason we decided to establish a manor here is that this area consists of solid dry land suitable for building houses"

Jiang Sibai was momentarily speechless

Well, as the sun has already risen, he has no hope of attending his morning class

Butler Zhong once again displayed an expression of disappointment, as if lamenting the inability to turn iron into steel

Young master, what do you think of this... how should we handle it?

He can be certain that he has finally become the person who is 'internally appointed'

He opened the sword box and carefully selected, ultimately choosing a longsword with a blade three fingers wide and measuring three feet two inches (approximately eighty centimeters) in length

It seems that he is not gaining much valuable experience in farming

Although those celestial techniques are marvelous, they are ultimately too austere and difficult

It seems that what he just said is quite similar to what Jiang Sibai said last night when he learned about the fire

He soon gathered the old farmers and humbly inquired about the important considerations for farming from those experienced farmers in the villages

Jiang Sibai looked at Teacher Dabai, who was happily gnawing on a chicken leg bone, and gained a deeper understanding of its survival ability

Seeing this, he silently slid past the door, too lazy to pay any attention, and then returned to his room to look for his 'formal attire'

Isn't it good to be a young master, to become a ruler in the future, and to have many offspring to live a good life?

Jiang Sibai casually waved his hand and said, "You don't need to worry about that; just arrange for me one mu of land, and that will be sufficient"

The perfunctory attitude is simply evident

Amidst the turmoil of thoughts, it was only when the chaotic sounds from outside gradually subsided that Jiang Sibai began to calm his mind

Early the next morning, he diligently rose before dawn

However, the chaotic thoughts had actually exhausted his brain, and after a moment of relaxation, he entered a rather subtle state of ethereality

If you wish to cultivate, I can immediately find you a good piece of land, so why must you insist on clearing land here

Jiang Sibai, filled with anticipation, also prepared to sleep after finding a good house for Teacher Dabai

Young master, where did you bring back this big dog? It is truly obedient and can even catch mountain chickens for me

He continued to speak to himself, completely disregarding Mr. Zhong's words.

Since he began studying forging, he has shown an extraordinary interest in sword casting, and three years of practicing swordsmanship have further developed his immense love for the art of the sword

At the same time, one must also prepare a sword for oneself

By the way, please find some old farmers for me, as I need to ask them about their farming experiences

In addition, it is the amount of knowledge and flexible thinking he developed during the information deluge of his previous life

The final opportunity, he has already seized half of it, or rather, a significant portion of it

Jiang Sibai remained indifferent to this matter; he simply stated: "If I can enter the immortal sect, then these places will have to be entrusted to Butler Zhong for management."

In that moment, his heart was empty and formless, and naturally, he did not pay attention to these matters. After a brief moment, he fell into a deep sleep.

He said: "My son, why have you not yet put aside this idle concern?"

In the end, it can only be said: "At this point, we can only make do with the young master eating stale rice, and then scrimp and save to get by for a year."

Butler Zhong let out a heavy sigh, as if he were the one who had suffered a great loss

Fortunately, he later realized that this world is inhabited by immortals

Butler Zhong was taken aback, and he asked: "What is going on here? How can the son of a wealthy family do such hard labor?"

This sword is named 'Fangzheng', which is the ceremonial sword specially crafted by Jiang Sibai for himself

After he finished speaking, he was momentarily taken aback, as if he had just opposed his own son farming

Here lies nothing but ashes and mud

Then he suddenly had an idea and said: "How about this, I will cultivate an acre of land here, as it is conveniently close to the village, saving me the trouble of running back and forth over long distances"

It truly depends on the weather

Even if there are still some corn that has not been burned, it has already been soaked and ruined by water

However, he still humbly learned from the old farmers about their experiences in observing the weather, truly embodying the principle of 'a thief does not leave empty-handed'

He thought of nothing, yet before him, there was a bright expanse in the darkness

The intricately crafted sword sheath is sufficient to reflect his noble status

Butler Zhong then cast aside this little admiration and immediately said with great sorrow: "Young Master, how can your heart be so vast!"

He is completely indifferent to the noise outside; it is the turmoil within his heart that keeps him tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

But Butler Zhong was quite accustomed to this perfunctory attitude; it was only later that he realized the implications.

In the past two days, he has been preoccupied with conversing with the old farmers and preparing compost, to the extent that he has somewhat forgotten about Teacher Bai.
