Almighty Game Designer

After opening the newspaper, Zou Zhuo was surprised to discover that this was a game play instruction.

“Can crops be harvested after they are grown on the ground? ”

“After the harvest, can you sell the crop for money? ”

“Can you also buy a variety of props, including fertilizer seed decorations, etc? ”

Farm play is not complicated, it can be written enough in a newspaper. Chen Jiao deliberately introduced the corresponding play to the newspaper in order to better suit the environment and prevent the player from feeling the play.

Of course, players can do the same in the game without looking at the newspaper, but that would require some exploration.

According to the newspaper guidelines, Zou Zhuo first came to the thatch house to pick up some seeds, then to the back of the thatch house to pick up some farm tools.

Farm tools are very simple, just hoes, shovels, kettles and spray cans. According to the game instructions, the hoe is used to weed, the shovel is used to eradicate already withered crops, the kettle is used to water and the spray kettle is used to spray medicine.

As for cultivation and fruit harvesting, these operations are done by hand and do not require the help of agricultural tools.

Zou Zhuo came to the farmland with seeds and tools.

At this time, four plots of agricultural land had been reclaimed, while the others were in an unexplored state. Zouzhuo sprayed the seeds onto the four plots, and a small pit appeared on the ground, indicating that the seeds had been planted.

That's it.

Zouzhuo was a little surprised, because this operation was so simple, just come to the farmland and throw the seeds away, neither digging nor watering is required.

But he thought again, it makes sense, after all, that this is a soothing mode, to relax the player, and certainly to simplify the operation as much as possible.

Just spreading the seeds and collecting the dishes, and this kind of operation is basically negligible for the mental stress of the player.

After spraying the seeds, Zou Zhuo turned around next to the thatched house.

There is a small warehouse next to the thatched house, which is obviously where the crops are put. However, the newspaper's game guide says there will be shops and some other buildings, but it looks like they haven't been unlocked yet.

Zou Zhuo went back to lie down on the rocking chair and picked a soothing piece of music to keep his eyes closed.

Not to mention that in this atmosphere, there is a sense of return to the countryside. Sunshine and luminosity, just under the cover of an umbrella. It doesn't sting at all.

In the breeze, in a soothing melody, Zou Zhuo felt like he was on a real farm, as if those turf stretched out their hands and could even smell the green meadow.

Of course, some of them are hallucinations, and Chen strangers create this kind of farm image, so that when the player is relaxed, his brain naturally replenishes some other elements that he doesn't actually have.

After a short while, Zou Zhuo opened his eyes and discovered that the crops on the land had sprouted.

“Hmm? So soon. ”

Zouzhuo had some surprises, and the crop actually grew at a rate visible to the naked eye.

But he figured it out quickly. After all, it's a game. If crops really mature in six months, as in the real world, then what the fuck?

Zouzhuo has estimated that these seeds are likely to ripen and be harvested in a matter of hours. But for a few hours in particular, he was not clear, and could not tell by the state of growth of this bud alone.

At this point, one of the lands grew weeds, while the other was dried up, the surface was dried up, and there was a marked difference between the other plots.

“Well, come and live! ”

Zouzhuo stood up and picked up the kettle and hoe from the side. First water the dry land and then remove the weeds from another piece of land.

This operation is still simple, but Zou Zhuo feels like he is really weeding the farmland, and there is a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Looking at the growing crop buds, Zou Zhuo suddenly had an unexpected sense of satisfaction. I wish these crops matured quickly. I can't wait for the moment to harvest them.

At this point, a small line of tips appeared in the blind spot: Congratulations on finishing your first weeding and the system gave you four bags of fertilizer.

“And fertilizer? ”

Zou Zhuo came by the thatched house and found four more bags of fertilizer under the shed behind the thatched house.

Fertilizer bags are very small, almost like a sachet of salt. Zou Zhuo held the fertilizer in his hand and looked at the name on it.

Two bags of black fertilizer and two bags of ash fertilizer.

Zou Zhuo suddenly had a bad feeling when he saw the name of fertilizer.

But he didn't think too much, and he came to the farm with these four bags of fertilizer.

The newspaper wrote about how fertilizer was used, so long as fertilizer was thrown on the land.

The two bags of fertilizer have different effects on different crops. For some of the lower crops, it can be shortened for longer periods, and for some of the higher crops, it can be shortened for less.

More advanced fertilizers must be used at that time.

Zouzhuo now grows basic crops, carrots and white radishes, and grey fertilizer reduces the growth time of these crops by three hours, while black fertilizer reduces the growth time of these crops by six hours.

Zou Zhuo directly sprayed four sachets of fertilizer on four plots of land. Gray-fertilized crops are entering a state of near maturity, but cannot be harvested. And the black fertilizer crop was sprayed directly into maturity, and the big white and carrots were coming out of the ground.

“Um... so maturity is between 3 and 6 hours? ”

Zou Zhuo roughly deduced that carrots and white carrots are both primary crops and should ripen at the same time, the only difference being that carrot seeds are expensive and sold cheaper, while white carrots are cheaper.

“So… both carrots should ripen for more than three hours and less than six hours. ”

Zou Zhuo came to the two mature carrot plots, squatted down and gently pulled the carrot out.

There are many carrots on each plot, neatly planted. Zou Zhuobao quickly pulled it out in a little while.

The carrot was supposed to have some dirt on it, and it looked very realistic. But after Zouzhuo threw them into the warehouse, the carrot mud automatically disappeared and stacked neatly.

Zouzhuo uprooted the crop debris from both plots of land and planted new crops.

Here's another very unnoticeable system tip: Detect if you've harvested crops and go to the store to sell them?

“Which means you can sell money, right? Sold decisively.” Zou Zhuo has no hesitation.

A brand-new building was built instantly on the empty space next to it, and it just seemed like a simple, simple retail shop, and the architectural style matched the scene.

There's no npc in there, it's all automated. Zouzhuo put this pile of mature carrots in the store and automatically converted it into system currency.

There is a very simple ATM machine next to the store that shows how much money Zouzhuo currently owns, as well as some transaction history.

Prices for different items can also be found in the store, of course most items are currently unavailable to Zouzhuo.

However, Zouzhuo was very surprised that the ATM machine had an interface open for real items with game coins.

Zou Zhuo was shocked, most games were recharged, that is, the real currency for the game coin, never heard of the game coin for the real item.

Here are some prizes of lower value, such as recharge cards. There are also some prizes of higher value, even computers and VR game compartments. Of course, these higher value items converted into game coins are heavenly prices, and Zou Zhuo can't even think about it.

But it's already quite appalling to be able to exchange the game currency for something in kind.

Zou Zhuo instantly realized that this game was never easy.
