Chapter 99: A Young Experience

Ye Laoshi smiled and said, "You are Xiao Chen, and you are Xiao Liu, right?"

This game is truly very interesting; it can actually perfectly imitate the essence of the other person, or rather, it is just like a soul possessing a body. Even if this person's face changes, the body's form remains the same.

For example, Xiao Chen always blinks when speaking, and Xiao Liu habitually clenches his left hand; this point is as if the real people were standing right in front of one.

It seems they also learned this was their own through observation. Interesting; it turns out the game my grandson spoke of is actually this fun.

"Teacher, let's look at the tasks first." The three of them simultaneously took out the notebooks tucked into their trouser pockets; on these notebooks, the tasks were written in a crooked hand.

The first task is to go out through Channel A, find a Calamity Believer named Philips, and accept the land reclamation task.

The task requirement is for everyone to reclaim one mu of land and plant a sufficient quantity of potatoes on it. After three months, the money from selling the potatoes will be settled with the players in part; in short, it is a very long but high-yield project.

The second task is to go to the vineyard to build a winery; go out through Channel B and find Evans. The daily wage is 30 Tana, and the players need to repair the vineyard's castle within two weeks. The advantage is that the time is short; after finishing, one can go do the work one wants to do, and one can keep a room of one's own in the vineyard.

The third task is to go to C Exit and find Andrew to do the task of transporting Grain. The yield is very low, only a daily wage of 10 Tana, but it includes food and lodging. The benefit is that after the task is completed, Andrew might give the players some surprises; as for what the surprises are, no one knows.

Not a single task allows one to go directly to the library to read books. Of course, except for Ye Laoshi, the other two players did not want to go read books.

But since their teacher is here, they couldn't just leave the teacher behind and go play by themselves, right?

"I think the third task is not bad. Although the yield of this task is a bit lower, it is definitely relatively easier." Ye Laoshi is old, after all; even if he possesses a young person's body in the game, he will still subconsciously choose things that fit his age.

To have him at his age go build houses or go reclaim wasteland is truly too difficult for him.

Transporting some Grain is still manageable, and besides, there are two disciples to help him; it certainly won't be a problem.

Although they were not very willing to do such a simple task, since the teacher said so, the two of them dared not refuse.

The three of them walked along the route to C Exit for a full hour before they finally saw the exit.

There are not many new players coming to do this task; in total, there are not even thirty people together. Mainly, the yield of this task is too low, and most players are not very willing to do it.

Andrew greeted these new Believers enthusiastically. He hugged Ye Laoshi and then said, "Thank you for being willing to come and help us. Now the whole city is lacking Grain; we should try to be as discreet as possible. Alright, you all get on the carriage first; we are going to the Nongzhuang in the suburbs."

The thirty or so people obediently got onto a cargo carriage, and at the same time, each person was handed a loaf of bread.

Because when the players logged on, it was already ten o'clock in the morning in Tana City, and by the time they rushed to Andrew's place, it was already past eleven, so lunch could only be solved on the carriage.

"This is a bit too realistic; just running the map took so long." A player with the name "Huiwan Entertainment" above his head complained, "If I had known, I would have gone to move bricks."

"But when we are sitting in the carriage, we can log off and go look around; this way you can also increase some game time. This is a rule my friend summarized," another player named "Three Thousand Crows Killed" said. "This time is just sleeping in the game; you can both recharge your energy and go see if the offline players have any new scoops."

After finishing, this player lay down directly and instantly entered a state of deep sleep.

Immediately, several more players lay down just like him, but Ye Laoshi did not think so; he looked at the scenery outside the carriage and kept taking photos and screenshots.

Although Tana City has become quite dilapidated, there are still many good buildings, and some are even buildings that do not exist in real life, especially the Sun Church cathedral currently under construction. Just looking at the part already built, one can see many elements not found in modern society; I have to say that the combination is quite good-looking, especially the special color schemes.

If only his wife could be here too; she would definitely like the scenery here.

Or... should he not translate for his grandson first, and instead translate a Helmet for his wife first?

The carriage ran for another hour or so before arriving at Saina's Nongzhuang. The road during the day is indeed much easier to travel than at night, but it still requires a long time to run.

After getting off the carriage, some people were already somewhat familiar with the scene here; after all, Saina's Nongzhuang was a scene that had once had a PV released on the official website, belonging to the first wave of experiences for the first-test players.

Many new serfs have already been recruited here, who are turning the fields; there are also some people grinding flour, and some people chopping wood—a busy scene.

Andrew led the players into the Nongzhuang. The people here already knew Andrew. A familiar steward greeted him and then said to Andrew, "We have been working overtime these past few days. Don't worry, filling a few carriages is not a problem."

"It's a pity that the nobles won't let us sell Grain now. I hope the Grain in Tana City can collectively rise in price; they don't even think about where those poor people have so much money to buy Grain." Andrew sighed with compassion, "Alright, let these little ones of ours just haul the Grain away. Thanks to Miss Jones; if it weren't for her, our orphans wouldn't know how they would be able to eat."

"You are also a kind person." The steward opened the warehouse, "Hurry and move it away; don't forget to cover it with a rain tarp afterward, otherwise it won't be good if people see it."

With a look from Andrew, several players rushed over and started moving it.

Ye Laoshi also picked up a bag of ground flour, lifted it with force, and this bag of flour was thrown out by him.

This...

"Take it easy, don't be in a hurry." Andrew advised. He hadn't not seen this kind of situation before; these new Believers might not be used to their bodies yet, and occasionally they would use too much force.

Ye Laoshi's face turned red, and then he picked up that bag of flour again.

This body is too healthy and too young; it is very different from his own.

He didn't expect that just by using a little force, he could carry this bag of flour; it felt as if he had returned to when he was 20 years old!

This feeling is simply too good; this body is even healthier than he was at 20, and he doesn't even have the slightest bit of nearsightedness.

No wonder everyone says this is an epoch-making game!
