A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 116 I should be under the car
On the other side, Leon had already ridden his bike back to Pelican Town.

Riding a bicycle in Pelican Town at night is much easier because of the light provided by the street lamps.

Unlike the distance between the northern foothills and Pelican Town, Lyon could only travel by moonlight, and he almost flew out of the car because of a mud pit.

When they arrived in front of the Stardrop Salon, Leon parked the car before pushing open the door and entering the store.

"Hi, Leon!"

"Leon, you're here."

"Good evening, Leon."

Leon's appearance attracted the attention of many customers, and most of those who greeted Leon were acquaintances. The first one to greet him was Willy, and the remaining two were Lewis and Marnie.

It seemed that every time he saw Lewis and Marnie, they were together. They were so open with each other that it was hard for Leon to believe that there was anyone in Pelican Town who didn't know about their special relationship.

But these were not what he wanted to gossip about, so Leon waved and greeted them before sitting on the stool next to the bar.

"Good evening, Leon, what would you like to eat?"

Emily came up to Leon and asked as soon as she saw him.

"One potato pancake, one fish stick, and a glass of apple juice." After glancing at today's menu, Leon ordered two high-calorie foods.

"Then I'll go inform Gus and talk to you later." Emily wrote down Leon's choice, then walked to the food delivery counter next to the kitchen and reported Leon's order to Gus. After making sure that Gus had heard it, she returned to the bar, took out the fresh apples and put them into the juicer.

"Hi, Leon." Just as Leon was admiring Emily's skillful juicing movements, a dull greeting sounded in Leon's ears.

Leon turned around and found that Clint actually appeared in the bar, but he did not sit down, just stood behind him, and this greeting also came from his mouth.

"Clint, good evening. What would you like to eat? It's my treat." Leon greeted Clint warmly and made a promise.

After all, last time Clint not only gave him the All-Seeing Crystal Sphere for free, but also gave him a straight sword when he learned that he was going to go to the mine. After seeing the price of the weapon from Malone, Leon realized that this straight sword was worth at least 500G. Leon remembered this favor.

"No, I just come here to have a beer. You eat yours, I won't disturb you. I like to be alone, it's quieter this way." Clint declined, then walked to the corner of the bar, near the fireplace of the pub, and greeted Emily.

"Emily, same old thing, a beer."

"Clint, wait a moment, I'll make this glass of apple juice for Leon first." Emily heard someone calling her, looked up and saw Clint, but did not leave the juicer, but expressed her apology with words.

Clint didn't think much about it and just stood there waiting. Emily finished squeezing the apple juice and then poured a glass of beer and handed it to Clint.

Clint was about to say thank you when he noticed Emily handed him a beer, then left to get apple juice, and walked towards Leon without looking back.

"You're so busy, it's really hard work." Clint looked at Emily with some emotion. Just when he was planning not to disturb the busy Emily tonight, he saw Emily handing Leon apple juice, then standing opposite Leon and chatting and laughing with Leon. He was stunned for a moment.

Unfortunately, his position was a bit off, so Emily and Leon didn't notice it either.

"I heard from Gus that you ordered bread from him this morning. Are you going on a long trip today?" Emily, who brought the apple juice, asked first.

"Well, I went to an abandoned mine and mined for a day." Leon replied.

"Ah?" Emily covered her mouth in surprise, then walked out from behind the bar and looked Leon up and down for a long time. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that only Leon's clothes were dirty, and there were no dark red marks anywhere on his body.

"Luckily, you're fine. There are monsters in abandoned mines. Have you encountered any?"

"Of course I did, but they were just little guys, not dangerous," Leon said, taking a sip of apple juice. It was sour and sweet, with a hint of apple, and it was quite appetizing and refreshing. "I didn't realize you were so capable," Emily chuckled and teased Leon, "so should I call you Brave Leon?"

"I prefer you to call me Explorer Leon. Mr. Malone, the head of the Explorers Guild in Pelican Town, thought I was gifted and graciously invited me to join the Guild. Because he was so enthusiastic, I felt embarrassed to refuse, so I reluctantly agreed."

Leon also replied to Emily in a joking tone.

"I didn't expect that I would have an explorer friend. But in this case, won't you have to face all kinds of dangerous monsters in the future?" Emily was very happy for Leon at first, but when she thought about the explorer's work content, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"No, I just joined by chance. At heart, I'm still a farmer, and the farm is my main business. I joined the Explorers' Guild just because Malone and I need each other's help." Lyon explained.

"That's good. Be sure to be safe." Emily breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, then returned to the bar and continued chatting with Leon.

Clint, who was standing aside, felt a little envious as he saw how familiar the two were with each other, but he didn't know what reason he should use to join in, so he could only drink beer in the corner.

"So the reason you were so anxious to go to the Calico Desert to look for Yuba's forging table last time was to prepare for going down to the mine, right?" Emily wanted to chat with Leon for a while before Leon had his meal.

Leon figured it would be nice to have someone to chat with since he had nothing to do, so he joined in the conversation. "I guess so. After all, I wasn't sure about the strength of the monsters in the mine at the time, so I had to hurry up and increase my chances of safety when I went down there."

"Going on an adventure with preparation is indeed a good choice, Leon. Even if you don't become a farmer, with this kind of meticulousness, I think you will definitely become a famous top explorer." Emily praised.

"Forget it, I'm not cut out for that. Besides, my main purpose of going to the abandoned mine is to mine, not to hunt monsters." Leon replied, waving his hand.

"So what did you gain today?" Emily changed the subject and started chatting.

"That's pretty good. At least I won't be short of ores for now." Lyon glanced at his system backpack. There were 15 copper ingots for free, 122 pieces of unsmelted copper ores, more than 70 pieces of coal, and 541 pieces of stones. It was considered a full load.

"Have you prepared the furnace?" Emily asked with concern.

"No, but I'll find a way." Leon replied with a shrug.

"It's okay, Clint is here, he's a professional blacksmith, we can ask him." Emily suggested actively, then waved to Clint on the other side: "Clint, can you come over here for a moment?

Clint heard Emily calling and immediately came over: "I heard Emily calling me, is there something wrong?"

"Let's talk about the processing of the ore that Leon harvested from the mine today. He doesn't have a furnace, so I wanted to ask if you have a furnace for sale?" Seeing Clint coming over, Emily immediately got straight to the point.

"Lyon, have you started mining? As for the furnace, I do have one, but I won't sell it. If you have enough materials, Leon, I can teach you how to make the furnace." Clint said immediately after hearing this.

"How much does it cost?" Lyon asked.

"No money." Clint answered without hesitation. Not to mention that this was Emily's request, even if Leon asked about it, he would provide Leon with the method of making the furnace for free.

Before Leon could speak, Emily spoke first: "Thank you, Clint. Next time you come to the bar, I'll buy you a drink."

"Yeah." Clint was quite happy to hear Emily invite him to have a drink.

But seeing Emily actually helping Leon to thank him made Clint feel very uncomfortable, because even Clint could see from Emily's behavior that the two had a close relationship.

How could Leon, who had only just moved to Pelican Town, have such a good relationship with Emily? Clint couldn't figure it out, couldn't understand it, but at the moment he just felt like he didn't fit in with the two of them, as if he was the superfluous one.

　Thanks to the Butter Shooter boss for the reward of 500 starting coins. The boss is generous and in good health. The name is very cool. It seems that the boss is a decent person.
