Chapter 272 Amazing
Lyon, who no longer resisted participating in the Easter egg treasure hunt, looked at the construction team setting up temporary shelves, tables and chairs everywhere, and asked Lewis.

"Are all festivals in Pelican Town so grand?"

"Of course. After all, there are a lot of tourists visiting Pelican Town during every festival. This is a good opportunity to promote Pelican Town and boost the local economy at the same time." Lewis replied.

"Then can the budget prepared for this event be recovered?" Thinking of the economic situation of Pelican Town, Leon was still a little worried.

"Of course, don't be fooled by the large amount of things we've prepared. Most of them are sponsored. For example, these engineering teams are kindly provided by the Joja family, and so are the eggs." Lewis replied very proudly.

"After all, the Joja family wouldn't miss such a good publicity opportunity. I just need to agree to let them hang the Joja-sponsored banner at this celebration, and we can save a lot of money."

"That's a nice fat sheep." Lyon joked with a smile.

"Yeah, otherwise I wouldn't be willing to make such a big scene." Lewis nodded in agreement.

"But I think Joja isn't just trying to promote themselves at this festival. They're also trying to show me their financial strength and influence. The day before yesterday, when I was discussing sponsorship for this event with Morris, he mentioned the idea of ​​converting the old community center into a Joja logistics warehouse."

"Is this a necessary condition for their sponsorship?" Lyon asked.

"No, I just mentioned it," Lewis replied.

"Then pretend you didn't hear it. We'll eat the bait and don't touch the hook. I'll make arrangements for the old community center." Lyon heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that, and at the same time comforted Lewis.

“Believe me, Lewis, give me some time, I will give you a surprise.”

"Of course, I believe you, Leon. After all, the moment I learned that you took the initiative to repair the bus, I knew that you had already regarded yourself as a Pelican Town resident." Lewis smiled and nodded in response.

Then he couldn't help but move closer to Leon and whispered, "And you restored the vault in the old community center so well. I have already stored some important documents in the vault safe. Well done, kid."

Leon just smiled and didn't answer.

It was not surprising that Lewis could find the restored vault in the old community. This was not a game, and no one would set foot in it before the old community center was restored.

The fact that Lewis did not make this known after discovering it speaks volumes. It's clear that the old mayor of Pelican Town has hidden a lot of things, or knows a lot of things.

Seeing that Leon didn't want to talk about this topic, Lewis tacitly didn't bring it up again and continued to direct the construction of Joja's engineering team.

After watching for a while, Lyon left quietly and returned to Red Star Farm.

After lunch, Leon took his fishing rod and went to the coal forest to fish. He fished until the sun was setting and then set out on his journey back to the farm.

After throwing all the smallmouth bass and various water debris collected in the afternoon into the shipping box, Lyon began to prepare dinner.

Lyon had just cut the beef tenderloin and was about to fry it into steak to eat with steamed buns when he discovered an uninvited guest in the kitchen.

"So, you're planning on eating at my place again?"

Looking at the bright purple hair reflected in the pot lid, Leon sighed and complained.

"Hey, I know you cook delicious food." Abigail didn't look embarrassed at all. Instead, she found a stool and sat down, swinging her legs as she asked, "What are you planning to eat tonight?"

"I'm losing weight and I'm not eating anymore." Leon replied with a straight face.

"Who are you kidding? Do you think I didn't see you preparing to fry the steak? By the way, I want it medium rare." Abigail stuck out her tongue and complained to Leon. "I only have well-done here." Leon replied.

"That's fine. Although it's a little hard, I have good teeth and can chew it. You are the chef and you have the final say." Abigail replied nonchalantly.

"."

Abigail's stubborn attitude gave Leon a headache, but he was afraid that he couldn't drive her away, so Leon simply prepared a piece of beef tenderloin, marinated it, and prepared to fry a double steak, otherwise one piece would definitely not be enough.

As the aroma of the steak being fried in butter wafted in, Abigail swallowed her saliva and came over, staring eagerly at the steak in the pan and asking, "How much longer?"

"It's almost time. You're not just here for dinner, are you?" Leon answered while trying to figure out why Abigail showed up.

"I heard that you also participated in the Easter egg treasure hunt at the Egg Festival?" Abigail did not answer directly, but asked Leon instead.

"Yeah." Leon nodded: "You are not going to ask me about the location of the Easter egg?"

"I originally had this idea, but since you are also a contestant, you will definitely not participate in the preparation of the Easter egg release, so I won't ask." Abigail replied.

"You knew the news before you came, but you still came, so what are your thoughts? Tell me." Lyon continued to ask after hearing this.

"You're a good person in every way, except that you always think too much, which is really annoying." Abigail pouted in dissatisfaction, complaining about Leon's meticulous thinking, but she did not forget to answer Leon's questions.

"Since we are both contestants, we can be competitors or partners. I prefer the latter, so I plan to cooperate with you."

"Shall we look for Easter eggs together and then put all the eggs on one person's head?" Leon asked tentatively.

"Yeah, that's what I thought, but it has to be counted on me. As a reward for cooperation, the honor goes to me and the reward goes to you. What do you think?" Abigail nodded and replied.

"Can it be allowed in this situation?" Lyon asked after hearing this. After all, if it was an illegal operation, Lyon would refuse it without hesitation.

After all, it would be embarrassing to compete with children and do some tricks if they were discovered.

"Of course, this is a form of competition that everyone accepts as a given. And Vincent set the precedent. When he and Jas participated in the Easter Egg Treasure Hunt for the first time last year, Vincent gave all the eggs he found to Jas, allowing her to win the Easter Egg Treasure Hunt championship. After that, everyone knew about this method and accepted it as a standard for collaborative competitions."

Abigail replied to Leon with resentment on her face: "You know, if it weren't for this special situation, I would still be able to defend the title of Easter Egg Treasure Hunt Champion."

"No wonder you only want honor." Hearing this, Leon understood Abigail's thoughts. It turned out that she was going there to avenge her previous shame.

At the same time, Lyon also expressed admiration for Vincent's operation.

Vincent has mastered such a fresh and unconventional way of flirting with girls and winning their favor at such a young age without any instruction. His future is definitely bright.

When Leon was his age, he was still catching shrimps and eels in the fields with his friends.

Not to mention flirting with girls, even playing with girls was considered shameful and effeminate by Leon at the time. He had no idea that this was the best opportunity to cultivate a childhood sweetheart.

After such a comparison, Leon couldn't help but sigh again: Stardew Valley is indeed a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are everywhere, even the children are so lively.
