Chapter 5

Zun Zun squatted down, dipped a little with his hand, put it to his nose and sniffed it, then looked at the giant steel building not far from the back mountain and fell into silence.

　　He seemed to know why Lao Deng, who created the Red Demon Clan, built the Red Demon Village here.

　　Yes, that's right.

　　Zun Zun struck oil.

　　In the previous life or the one before that, although I couldn't be on the rich list, I would be more than qualified to be a billionaire. However, this is a different world, and oil has no place to play its value. It's like sitting on a mountain of treasure but being unable to do anything about it, which is really frustrating.

　　You say why not just build the machine yourself?

　　Come on, he studied management and finance, not invention.

　　Besides, he had never studied these things. Who would have thought that he could travel through time again after traveling through time once? This was much less likely than winning the jackpot by buying two lottery tickets in a row!

　　How could this be the goddess of luck lifting her skirt for him? This was the goddess opening her legs for him!

　　...Wait, Eris is not impossible?

　　Looking at the oil flowing out, Zun Zun stopped digging and returned home.

　　When he came here again the next day, he was holding a tricolor flag in his hand, with countless small stars on the blue square in the upper left corner.

　　He simply stuck the flag into the ground and sat there waiting, sitting like this for the entire day. It was not until the sun went down that he patted his butt and stood up, sighing.

　　"——It seems that even the Beautiful Country cannot reach the other world!"

7. Farm quietly and then surprise everyone [ask for bookshelf, ask for recommendation]

　　This piece of land probably can't be kept anymore.

　　Looking at the land that was constantly emitting black gold, Zun Zun suppressed his urge to cry and covered it back.

　　When you are extremely hungry, even the world's top gemstones are of no use unless you can use them to buy a piece of bread, so you can only choose to ignore them.

　　Then he cleared the land on the other side of the altar.

　　This time it went very smoothly, except that all the previous work results were wasted. But as long as it went smoothly, it's okay.

　　Gather your strength and swing the shovel with force.

　　Oh god, start!

　　In this way, Zun Zun came here every day to cultivate the land. It took him a full month to cultivate one and a half acres of land of his own.

　　It is a real one-third acre of land, about one thousand square meters.

　　He didn't want to spend so much time on this, but considering his small body of only six years old and the fact that the farm tool he used was an awkward shovel, it was not easy to achieve this level.

　　In other words, he has a cheat—a divine body with super recovery ability, otherwise the time would be extended by at least twice.

　　After clearing the land, he realized that he had been greedy.

　　One thousand square meters is really too big, at least too big for him now.

　　He simply couldn't take care of so many fields at the moment, so he only selected a small portion with the best geology, which accounted for about one-tenth of the reclaimed land.

　　This area may be a bit small for adults, but for six-year-old Zun Zun, it is just right.

　　Cultivating the land does not mean that you can plant directly. Before planting, the surface of the land needs to be cleared from unstable materials such as debris, branches and stones, which means that the land must be leveled to ensure that crops can grow properly.

　　In this way, in future planting processes, if the land is flat, operations can be carried out more easily and land use efficiency can be increased.

　　This is also the reason why only one tenth is kept.

　　It took nearly ten days to clean up the debris. Every day, Zun Zun came to the forbidden area early in the morning and worked until the evening before returning home.

　　The reason why he worked so hard was because winter was approaching.

　　The timing of planting crops is an important link, which is related to the growth and harvest cycle of crops and can also be affected by weather, temperature and other factors.

　　If Zun Zun wants to eat crops grown in the fields next year, he must prepare the land before winter and plant the seeds in the spring. Otherwise, he will miss the time to plant the seeds and the land will be wasted for a year.

　　In the evening, return home.

　　"Zun Zun, you've been leaving early and coming back late lately. Are you hiding something from me?"

　　At the dinner table, Sister Trapped asked this question.

　　The sharp words hit the nail on the head, making Zun Zun a little unsure of how to respond. He couldn't help but purse his lips, appearing a little guilty.

　　"Well…"

　　"Speak." Sister Trapped became serious, and was unusually angry: "You go out clean every day, but in the evening you are dirty and covered in mud. Wait, are you being bullied?"

　　"No, I didn't!"

　　"What's going on?"

　　"I, I...I went to the forbidden area."

　　Zun Zun closed his eyes and prepared to withstand the coming storm.

　　"What, you went to the forbidden area!?"

　　Sure enough, the sister who was trapped got angry.

　　"How could you be so disobedient? You really disappoint me! Didn't I tell you that the evil god is sealed there? It's a dangerous place. Don't go there!"

　　"But sister, I really can't hold it back! My adventurous soul... my Crimson Demon soul is stirring! It's telling me to go on adventures, because that's the only place where I can truly belong! Please, sister, please agree with me!"

　　"Your Excellency…"

　　He covered his mouth with his hands, seeming a little bit unbelievable that his always well-behaved and sensible brother would refute him like this.

　　But soon she was obviously moved again.

　　"As expected, the blood of the Crimson Demon Clan flows in Zun Zun's body. I knew this day would come. It seems that you have fully awakened. Well, since I can't stop you, I will help you as much as possible! But you must promise me that you must always remember the pride of the Crimson Demon Clan!"

　　"Thank you, sister!"

　　The brother and sister embraced each other warmly.

　　…

　　…

　　The above situation drama, which is so embarrassing that one could carve out a three-bedroom apartment by tapping one's feet on the ground, is actually the daily life of the Crimson Demons who are full of chuunibyou. They always go crazy in inexplicable places.

　　Zun Zun is no longer surprised by this, and can even cooperate with his sister's performance now.

　　If you think about it carefully, it was my sister who encouraged me to take risks in the forbidden area. How could I blame her for this?

　　But looking at it this way, the so-called forbidden area is just like a toilet, you can come and go whenever you want. How come anyone can go there?

　　As for farming, Zun Zun didn't say anything, because he wanted to farm quietly and then surprise everyone!

　　Of course, if the sister knew about this, she would definitely help.

　　Not only does Sister Tao Lao have to do housework every day, but she also has to maintain the village fortune-telling house. Plus, she will be going to school next spring, and Zun Zun doesn't want her to be too hard.

　　Even so, Sister Trapped still said, "By the way, I'll prepare rice balls for you tomorrow."

　　"Really? Thanks for trapping my sister!"

　　Lunch rice balls, get!

　　When Zun Zun was working on the farm, he would run back every day to eat lunch. If he could bring lunch with him instead of running back and forth, it would save a lot of time.

　　In this way, after getting help from his sister, Zun Zun sped up the progress a lot and barely finished tidying up the land by the end of autumn.

　　Then winter came and Zun Zun stopped his activities.

　　"Moson no Haru" also has a New Year. After all, there are many modern time travelers sent here by the stupid goddess Aqua, and the festival is almost the same as we remember.

　　The only difference is that the Crimson Demon Clan has a so-called birthday, which is a festival to celebrate the creation of the Crimson Demon Clan... That day was really a day of chaos and even now Zun Zun can't help but shudder when he thinks back on it.

　　At the same time, the parents who had disappeared for a year also came back with other tribesmen who had returned to the Crimson Demon Village one after another.

　　Zun Zun is just like the left-behind children, looking forward to the return of his parents. It is not because he misses his family whom he has not seen for a long time, but because he misses the big red envelopes they give him every year.

　　In the past, Zun Zun didn't need money. He would give all the New Year's money he received from his parents to his sister to subsidize the household expenses and save it for food expenses for the next year.

　　But it probably won't work this year, because he has not yet found the seeds, farm tools and fertilizers for next year's farming, and he needs the money.

　　In the easternmost house of the village in Crimson Demon Village.

　　"I am Zun Zun, and I aspire to become the strongest Crimson Demon!"

　　Zun Zun suppressed his shame and posed in a dozen JOJO poses in the best business posture. His strange and magical postures made his parents exclaim in joy and spend a lot of money.

　　He received more New Year's money than in the past six years combined.

　　In addition, the Crimson Demons hold a party at the end of each year. In addition to chatting, they also hold a Chuunibyou competition. The content of the competition is to see whose actions and lines are cooler.

　　In the past, Zun Zun had not participated because he felt ashamed, but this year, in order to win the first prize - 100,000 Eris, he forced himself to participate and won the championship.

　　As expected, the second-year syndrome is popular among the Crimson Demon Clan.

8 Dare to kill... steal my corn, seek death! [Seek bookshelf, recommend]

　　Spring is here, and it's a new year again.

　　Before he could even wave goodbye, his parents went out to cheat and defraud again... No, they went out to enlighten the world and show them the direction for their future.

　　Zun Zun once again became a left-behind child.

　　But he is not lost because he has big things to do starting this year.

　　The first thing is to buy suitable farm tools.

　　Using a shovel to cultivate the fields seemed strange no matter how you looked at it. At least a hoe would work. But forget about large farm tools like plowshares and rakes. He had neither an ox nor a black... ahem, a coolie to pull farm tools. With his small body, a hoe was the best he could do.

　　Although the Crimson Demon Tribe lives in the countryside, there are still a lot of shops here. You can buy most common things, and farm tools are naturally no problem.

　　As for fertilizers, there is no rush for now.

　　As the land is used over time, the soil loses many of its nutrients, making the nodes weaker, slowing crop growth and reducing yields.

　　Therefore, when choosing fertilizers, you need to carefully determine the type of crops you want to plant, and use them to update the soil fertility in advance. But after all, this is the first time to plant crops, and the nutrients in the land have not been consumed.

　　But what crops to plant once again troubled him.

　　You should know that the fruits and vegetables in "Moonlight" are very strange, they are all alive! For example, watermelons planted in the river, saury planted in the field, cabbages that can fly in the sky, and melons that can jump!

　　There is a bug in the planting system, goddess!

　　The above-mentioned ones are all rare ingredients. They taste great and can bring experience points to the eaters. Their edible and selling value is also very high. They are excellent crops to grow.

　　The only drawback.

　　That means Zun Zun can't beat them.

　　Each rare ingredient is very powerful, and ordinary adventurers may not be able to defeat them, not even the current Zun Zun can do anything about it.

　　If you plant some rare ingredients but cannot harvest them, it would be a complete waste of effort.

　　But crops like rice are not very likely to work. The geology here is not suitable for rice, and rice is even more troublesome to grow. The amount harvested is far from enough to meet our own needs, let alone support our families.

　　In this way, it seems that there is only one crop.

　　——That's corn.

　　Corn is not picky about land and is drought-resistant. It can grow in all types of soil, and its yield is high enough to meet daily needs. Most importantly, it only takes 100-120 days from sowing to maturity!

　　Is there any crop that matures earlier and grows faster than this?

　　No!

　　Corn is the best choice!

　　Then Zun Zun ran to the seed store and bought some corn seeds from there. The advantage of buying from the seed store is that you don't need to select high-quality seeds yourself, and these seeds have all germinated, so you just need to plant them.

　　With a small hoe, I turned the planned field over again, dug a small hole every step, buried two corn seeds in it, covered it with soil again and watered it. After doing all this, I just had to wait for it to germinate.

　　Just as Zun Zun expected, the seeds broke through the soil and grew small sprouts in less than a week.

　　Zun Zun is extremely happy every day.

　　Zun Zun, who was immersed in her own world, completely forgot one thing, that is, the day to enroll her sister in school had arrived. At the age of twelve, she was about to become a freshman.

　　"Zun Zun, how is it, does it look good?"

　　"nice!"
