Chapter 7: Space and Culinary Arts

~3 min read 443 words

Sihe Academy

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse; the night is deep and quiet.

Cao Weiguo, lying on the bed, suddenly disappears into thin air.

Appearing again, Cao Weiguo has arrived at a farm near the water and mountains.

The southern part of the farm is a forest, the eastern part is a wheat field, the western part is a vegetable garden, and the northern part is a grassland.

The wheat in the wheat field is ripe, drooping with full ears, emitting a pleasant fragrance.

Chickens, ducks, pigs, and sheep are walking leisurely on the grassland.

With a thought from Cao Weiguo, eggs and duck eggs fly from the grass and forest into several baskets at his feet.

"One hundred eggs, one hundred and fifty duck eggs, I can go to the pigeon market again."

Cao Weiguo picks up the baskets happily; the heavy feeling is intoxicating.

This portable farm was a reward for the one-year check-in, with a total area of 300 mu, including 50 mu of arable land, 150 mu of forest land, 80 mu of grassland, and 20 mu of pond.

The land in the farm is fertile, with favorable weather; a harvest can be had just by sowing seeds.

Now, the wheat he has stored in the farm is over ten tons.

Besides that, he also grows fruits and vegetables here, and raises chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, and fish.

Although Cao Weiguo could become a "ten-thousand-yuan household" as soon as these grain supplies are sold.

But in his daily life, Cao Weiguo still eats corn buns and cabbage, living a "hard and poor" life.

The three years of natural disasters have just passed; the country is short of grain and non-staple food, people are tightening their belts, and speculation and profiteering are being strictly cracked down on.

Even with a "gold and silver mountain" in his hands, Cao Weiguo dares not eat or drink lavishly, fearing he will be reported.

Even if he improves his food, he does it late at night behind closed doors, sneaking into the farm to eat.

He specially built a kitchen in the farm, so he can eat and drink as he pleases without being discovered.

This is not because Cao Weiguo is timid, but because he has to be careful and cautious.

Being jealous of others having things and laughing at others for having nothing is a human weakness.

Cao Weiguo doesn't want to cause trouble; he just wants to close his door and live his own little life well.

But in this crowded Sihe Academy, he has to be a little more guarded against others. ===== CHAPTER 9 =====
