A farming master in Stardew Valley

Chapter 98 Two Letters

After returning to the cabin this time, Leon finally did not see the visitor who came to the farm to look for him on the third night.

However, Lyon, lying in bed, was not in a hurry to sleep, but was thinking and chewing on what Master Rasmodes said.

For example, the issue of the barrier being activated after the meteorite fell, and the friendly visits brought about by my grandfather's connections and fame.

The only person that Leon could think of regarding the visit was probably the fairy who could make the crops in a small area mature instantly.

Of course, she is not the kind of fairy who thinks highly of herself in some book, but a serious fairy the size of a palm with wings.

By the way, there is also a witch who seems to be the ex-wife of Wizard Rasmodes. However, her condition for visiting is to own a chicken coop. She will turn an egg into a void egg. I don’t know whether it is a gift or a curse.

Leon really has no idea about the others. After all, in the game, only these two types of existence can be considered as visits, and the others are natural events. As for what will happen in reality, we can only know it when it really happens.

But it should be a good thing. After all, Master Lasmodes specifically stated that he came to visit with good intentions.

It's impossible that the other person's understanding of kindness is completely different from yours.

As he was thinking, Leon's eyelids began to twitch, but then he stopped struggling, closed his eyes and slept until dawn.

The next day, under the sunlight, Leon woke up naturally, washed up, made breakfast, ate and drank enough, and poured water on the table. After completing these daily tasks, Leon immediately went to the mailbox and took out two letters from it.

One letter was from Lewis. The envelope was stuffed full. After opening it, the most eye-catching thing Lyon saw, besides a piece of letter paper, was a thick stack of banknotes.

"To Mr. Lyon, the owner of Red Star Farm:
The main purpose of this letter is to transfer the payment for the goods you sold last time. After transportation and sales, the total value of the goods shipped by Red Star Farm this time is 1120G, and an additional 10000G of assistance funds from the local agricultural support program are attached. Please pay attention to the amount to see if there is any error in the inventory. If any payment is lost, please contact me immediately.

——Lewis
Mayor of Pelican Town

Looking at the thick stack of banknotes, Lyon immediately began to count them. The complete stack of hundred-dollar bills totaled one hundred, which was the support fund he had talked about with Lewis yesterday, totaling ten thousand.

Lyon took the money back to the house and deposited it in the treasure chest. Lyon did not plan to use the money for personal consumption. After all, since it was agricultural support funds, he had to spend the money on farm planning and upgrading.

Moreover, 10000G is neither too high nor too low, so he cannot buy the Star Fruit. If he is given 20000G, then Leon will definitely rush to the sewer to find Krobus to buy the Star Fruit.

After all, improving Lyon's own strength will also have far-reaching benefits for farm development. How can it not be considered related to agricultural support?
After counting the other sum of money, both in small and large amounts, Lyon put it in his pocket. This money was from shipping leeks and some spring collections, and was his personal labor remuneration. Lyon could spend it freely without any burden.

With money in hand and no worries, Leon decided to have a good meal at the Star Fruit at noon.

The other letter was signed by JojaMart's Customer Satisfaction Department.

After opening the letter, Leon saw the unique blue letter paper inside, which was the representative color of the Joja family, and the content printed on it.

Dear JOJA Supermarket customers:
We have cleared the landslide in the northern foothills. This landslide was caused by our drilling rig, but we are committed to ensuring that these activities are fully legal and compliant. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience this incident has caused and thank you for your continued support of JOJAMart.

—Morris
JOJA Customer Satisfaction Department Representative"

"Oh, has the back mountain been cleaned up? They're quite efficient."

After reading the letter, Lyon couldn't help but shook his head. Just as Lewis said, in the letter, the Joja family claimed that their mining was legal. However, since the other party had already paid the fine and showed enough sincerity, Lyon didn't bother to care about the twists and turns on this side.

What he cared about most was the news that the channel leading to the abandoned mine at the northern foot of the mountain had been cleared and opened, which meant that he could finally go down to the mine.

Mining resources are definitely at the top of the list of major consumable resources for future farm planning. Whether it is a beehive, a sap collector or a small barrel for brewing, the main materials needed for manufacturing are mining resources. Copper ingots, iron ingots and coal are all resources that must be reserved, and the required quantity is extremely large.

Tool upgrades also require three types of metal ingots: copper, iron, and gold. This is also an inevitable consumption, but compared with the above-mentioned industrial equipment manufacturing, it is only a drop in the bucket.

Although it is possible to purchase it through Clinton, the price is too high, so mining it yourself is the most cost-effective way.

Leon prepared for this for a long time, otherwise he would not have thought of upgrading his backpack. At the same time, after getting the colorful fragments, he immediately tried to rush to the desert to sacrifice them in exchange for galactic weapons. Isn't it for the purpose of being able to show off his skills in the abandoned mine?

Now that he knew that the abandoned mine could be explored, Leon immediately went into the wooden house and put the watering can, axe and sickle in his backpack that were not needed temporarily into the box, leaving only the pickaxe, hoe and Galaxy machete in the backpack.

However, considering that he was not very clear about the specific situation of the abandoned mine, Leon also specially made two torches and put them in his backpack for emergency use to avoid the threat caused by the dark environment after entering the mine.

After the preparations were completed, Leon was about to go out when he suddenly noticed the suitcase and backpack he brought with him when he moved to Stardew Valley, and immediately had a good idea.

Then Lyon directly took out the clothes from the backpack, and then put the empty backpack on his back.

Although the system's backpack can store items and similar items can be stacked, each item, regardless of the quantity, must occupy one grid. The backpack has a total of twenty-four grids of space, and the output in the mine is more than twenty-four types. After all, in addition to mineral items, there are also monster drops, antiques and other miscellaneous items. Twenty-four grids may not be enough.

If you encounter a small number of light items, the backpack Lyon carries can play a huge role.

Everything was ready, so Leon got on his bike and headed towards Pelican Town.

Although he could quickly reach the northern foothills through the remote forests behind the mountain, Lyon couldn't just take these things and adventure into the mines. After all, in addition to tools, supplies were also very important.

Leon is a living person who needs to eat, drink water and go to the toilet. If he plans to stay in the mine for a whole day, food and water are essential supplies. Leon also plans to go to the hospital in Pelican Town to purchase a batch of medicines.

Western farmers all know that if they want traditional farm tools to work, they must feed them to ensure that they work willingly. Although Lyon is also a farmer, he himself is the farm tool, so naturally he will not treat himself badly.
