Chapter 15 Space Upgrade
Chapter 15 Space Upgrade (Please collect and recommend)
The next day, the sun rose three poles.
As soon as the holiday comes, Li Kailang returns to his original nature and avoids getting up. For example, he sleeps until nine or ten o'clock and wakes up leisurely.
"Hmm~~~" Hmm~~~" Li Kailang stretched lazily on the bed, his lazy voice carrying a hint of satisfaction and comfort.
He squinted his eyes, saw the sunlight outside through the window, and felt a sense of joy in his heart.
It feels so good to be on vacation, to be free to do what you want.
"System, sign in!"
[Ding! The host has signed in successfully and obtained the following items! ]
[Upgrade card fragment*1! RMB ! Cereal crop seeds! ]
"Finally, another one comes out!" Li Kailang stood up suddenly and couldn't wait to put the five upgrade card fragments together.
The five fragments quickly merged together, and in an instant, the bright light of the red eye shone out.
The light did not last long and soon dimmed, leaving only a card about the size of an adult's palm in his hand.
The card was shimmering silver all over and seemed to be surrounded by clouds and mist.
Li Kailang quickly held the upgrade card tightly and entered the planting space.
"System, how do I use this upgrade card?" Li Kailang asked curiously.
[The host only needs to hold the upgrade card and silently recite the item to be upgraded. ]
"So simple?" Li Kailang said uncertainly, but he decided to give it a try.
Li Kailang concentrated on holding the upgrade card tightly and said, "Upgrade the planting space!"
[Planting space is being upgraded, please wait]
The upgrade card in his hand popped and turned into a thin ray of light, spreading around like running water.
The entire planting space seemed to vibrate under the illumination of this light, as if it were alive.
"Boom--" A deafening sound rang in Li Kailang's ears, and the planting space shook violently like an earthquake.
The crops that had just sprouted in the space matured at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the same time, a piece of land of about one acre slowly appeared on the other side of the space.
This piece of land is no different from the previous land, both of which are original fertile farmland that has not been cultivated.
"System, how come the upgrade card has only this little ability and gives us an extra acre of land?" Li Kailang asked.
[The upgrade card is multiplied by the size of the current planting space, that is: n*2. ]
Li Kailang finally understood the function of the upgrade card and nodded.
[Current planting space lv.2.]
"That's not bad!" Although there were some disadvantages in the early stage, it was different in the later stage.
"That's great. I have extra grain seeds and I don't have to go out to buy them." Li Kailang took out the cereal seeds in transparent bags.
Cereal seeds include rice, corn, wheat, barley, sorghum, millet and sorghum.
Li Kailang was very familiar with the first four, but he had only read about the last two in history books and had never tasted them.
"The planting space is not big enough, so I won't plant the next two." Li Kailang made up his mind and decided to plant the ones he was more familiar with first.
Li Kailang had an idea and quickly reclaimed the extra acre of fertile land, then harvested all the mature crops.
Then harvest all the rice planted on three acres of land, the storable vegetables on three acres of land, and other crops planted on four acres of land.
The ecological environment of the planting space is very good, but after all, the seeds selected are from this time, not the seeds that have been bred and improved in later generations, so the yields of the two are not the same.
But with the help of the planting space, nearly 200 kilograms of rice were harvested, and cabbage, potatoes, carrots, etc. totaled about 500 kilograms.
Finally, there are about 300 kinds of fruits and seasonal vegetables, totaling about kilograms.
One person certainly couldn't eat so much food. However, Li Kailang had no plans to sell it. Next year would be a famine period, so it was always good to have more food reserves.
Fortunately, there is also a warehouse in the planting space. Time stands still in the planting warehouse, so there is no need to worry about it going bad.
However, the planting warehouse can only store things produced by the planting space, and other things cannot be placed in it.
But fortunately I have a space ring, so everything is fine.
Now that he has an extra acre of land, Li Kailang planted one acre of each crop as he did before, so that the yield of each crop can be higher.
In this way, there are still two mu of land left, and Li Kailang plans to plant some fruits, such as watermelon, apples, pears, etc., or peanuts, sesame, sugarcane, etc.
However, Li Kailang didn't have any seeds, so he planned to go out and buy some.
[Ding! The host uses the upgrade card for the first time, and is rewarded with 1 upgrade card fragment! ]
[Ding! The host upgrades the planting space for the first time, and is rewarded with 1 upgrade card fragment! ]
"I didn't expect there would be such a reward!" Li Kailang said in surprise.
Holding the freshly-made upgrade card fragments, after upgrading the planting space, Li Kailang also understood the importance of upgrade cards.
Clapping his hands, Li Kailang exited the space. He didn't want to cook either, so he simply washed up and went out.
"Good morning, Xiao Li!" Auntie San saw Li Kailang going out and greeted him.
"Good morning, Third Auntie! Good morning, all the aunties!" Li Kailang greeted Third Auntie first, and then greeted the other aunties.
Several middle-aged ladies sat together processing vegetables.
"Xiao Li, are you going out?" Third Aunt asked.
"Yeah, I'm going out to buy some things." Li Kailang replied.
"Xiao Li, the vegetables you buy at this time are not fresh. You should buy them earlier next time." The third aunt kindly reminded.
"Yes, yes, I'll be more careful next time!" After saying that, Li Kailang walked away immediately.
"This kid from the Li family has become lazy ever since his mother passed away!" an old lady said dissatisfiedly.
"Yes, he was so diligent before!" another lady echoed.
"Hey, but it's good that there's no one at home. He'll be more relaxed. If someone marries him, even though it'll be a bit hard at first, at least she won't have to become a mother-in-law." An old lady said with a clear mind.
Once these words were spoken, the other ladies all agreed.
A few people were discussing this little matter, and Li Kailang didn't intend to tell them.
Li Kailang went out because he didn't want to cook and also remembered that Lu Wenjiang asked him to buy cigarettes yesterday.
Li Kailang planned to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy it. Fortunately, the cooperative was not too far away.
Soon, Li Kailang arrived outside the supply and marketing cooperative.
This supply and marketing cooperative has three stories in its building, which is considered a tall building nowadays. After all, everyone now lives in bungalows like courtyard houses, except for tube-shaped buildings.
The supply and marketing cooperatives sell all kinds of goods, from large items such as bicycles and sewing machines to small items such as rice, flour, grain, oil, candy, cigarettes and alcohol, as well as picture books, cloth, flashlights, etc.
It was a rare opportunity for him to come here, so Li Kailang planned to do some shopping. He not only wanted to buy cigarettes, but also some other things, especially wine.
At that time, wine required tickets, and Li Kailang didn't have many on hand, so he just used them all together.
But you don’t need a ticket to buy cigarettes.
In 1958, Beijing decided to try out the quantitative supply of cigarettes with tickets in Shanghai, Heilongjiang, Zhejiang and other places, and cigarette tickets came into being.
It was not until two years later, in 1960, that cigarette tickets officially entered the historical stage.
There are no cigarette coupons in the old city now, so Li Kailang can buy them at will.
