I became a farmer in the apocalypse.
Chapter 111 A slight misstep can lead to financial ruin and death.
Jiang Li chose the three-star difficulty level of operating a resort farm.
[Host: Jiang Li]
[Occupation: Ordinary Farmer]
[Farm: Level 1 Resort Farm]
Farm area: 50 mu (approximately 3.3 hectares).
[Main Quest Unlocked: Your vacation farm has no reputation, which is not a good thing. Please promote the farm and attract 100 tourists to spend money on your farm within three days! (Successful completion of the quest will reward you with 2 points, failure will incur a penalty of 2 points, and exceeding the quest target will result in an additional generous reward!)]
[WARNING: Main quests are mandatory. Failure to complete a main quest will result in the complete shutdown of the in-game store, termination of all subsequent quests, and the utter failure of the farm system!]
Jiang Li stared at the three-day countdown on the panel, her eyes widening slightly.
No, is it that serious?
Just like the system said, a slight misstep can lead to financial ruin and even death! It's like gambling.
Furthermore, is there a system error? She doesn't have anything yet! How can she attract tourists to spend money? What will they spend? Does attracting people to buy agricultural products count as consumption?
But the problem is that nowadays everyone buys agricultural products at the farmers' market in the safe zone, so why would they leave the safe zone and come all the way here?
Jiang Li felt she had made a very risky choice; something seemed amiss.
Is this really the end for us?
[Your initial item, the Farm Cart, has been distributed. Please check your account.]
Just as Jiang Li was at her wit's end, the system sent her this notification again.
Jiang Li looked up and saw a colorful little stall cart in the open space not far away, with a large rainbow-colored parasol. The eye-catching colors made it stand out in her farm.
Lin An followed Jiang Li's gaze and was slightly taken aback, then tried to push the stall cart.
She asked, "What are you going to do with this thing?"
Looking at the suddenly appearing stall, Jiang Li already had a preliminary idea of how to complete the main quest.
Her farm is currently unknown and won't attract any tourists. After all, the inhabitants of this world are still worried about how to eat and stay warm, and there's no such thing as a vacation or tourism project.
But in a post-apocalyptic world where food is expensive, nothing is more appealing than cheap food.
She wants to use a small stall to promote farm products and sell grain!
People from the safe zone can't come out, but there are quite a few people in the fields, plus the patrol troops stationed nearby, so attracting 100 people to buy her agricultural products is still feasible.
I just don't know if pushing a farm stall cart to set up a stall elsewhere would be in accordance with the regulations.
[Note: The farm vending cart is a farm-exclusive business tool, available in any location. Revenue from the farm vending cart belongs to the farm and is automatically added to the farm's daily business settlement panel.]
The system specifically provided a prompt, indicating that any buying and selling done using the farm's small stall is considered a business activity of the farm.
Jiang Li said to Lin An, "This little stall is to make it easier for me to sell things at the bus stop. I plan to hold a promotion for the next three days, selling some potatoes and sweet potatoes at 50% of the market price."
Lin An's eyes widened. "Why is it so cheap?"
Jiang Li: "I want more people to come to my store to buy vegetables."
She used to sell things at her stall at the bus stop, but only about a dozen people actually bought anything each day. If the price wasn't low enough, she probably wouldn't attract that many customers.
Moreover, after the last harvest, every household in the field has a lot of sweet potatoes in stock. Under these circumstances, her agricultural products are not easy to sell. Even if she sells some rare fruits, she has to consider whether people can afford them.
The safest option is to engage in low-price promotions like Pinduoduo did before the apocalypse. What does it matter if she loses some points in order to complete the main mission? Completing the mission is more important than anything else right now, since she can't afford the consequences of failing the mission.
Consider this event a benefit for everyone in the field area, but there will be purchase limits to determine the number of participants.
Lin An raised his hand, "Can I participate in this activity you mentioned? I also want to buy something."
Jiang Li smiled and said, "Of course, I'll give you double the limit. You can also tell Zhou Yang and the others that they can buy from me. And for military personnel, I'll give them 1.5 times the limit, as a military benefit."
"That's great! I'll definitely tell them."
These potatoes and sweet potatoes are so cheap that even if you don't buy them for yourself, you can still stock up on food for your family. It just so happens that every household in the safe zone is stocking up on food right now.
After Liu Weijun and Liu Qing left, Jiang Li spent 500 points to buy a well pump in the system store, connected it to a water pipe, and pumped water from the well to irrigate the potato and sweet potato fields.
Having a well is indeed more convenient. Compared to traditional watering cans, watering this way is much less strenuous and is very suitable for large-scale planting.
As if to prove something, Zhu Cuihua continued to dig potatoes diligently. After digging them out, she shoveled them into the basket, then used her mouth to pull the basket to Jiang Li's side, showing her the potatoes she had dug out.
Jiang Li was surprised that it could distinguish between mutated and non-mutated potatoes, while Zhu Cuihua had dug up only normal potatoes.
Although only seven or eight piglets were dug out after several hours, the pigs had done their best.
Jiang Li: "Alright, alright, I know you can do the work. Go and rest if you're tired."
Look how tired the pig is, it's almost exhausted.
Jiang Li gave Zhu Cuihua a leftover steamed bun from the morning, which she ate with great relish.
Not long after, Jiang Li received a call from Jiang Tang, "Xiao Li, are we selling goods today?"
Jiang Li smiled and said, "I won't send anyone to deliver goods today. You can take a day off. These days we're mainly focused on planting rice, so there won't be many deliveries. You can go shopping with your best friend and look at some pretty clothes or something."
Jiang Tang: "Since you're not selling anything, why don't I come over to your place today and take a look?"
Having not seen Jiang Li for so long, Jiang Tang wanted to come and visit.
She also wanted to see what her younger siblings' lives were like outside. She had heard that farming was hard work, and she had wanted to see for herself for a long time.
Jiang Li couldn't help but ask, "Do you dare to come out?"
Recently, there have been more mutated wolves outside. They can often be seen on the roads to and from the fields. It is still very dangerous without a convoy escort.
Jiang Tang was naturally somewhat afraid, but she couldn't resist her strong desire to come to the field.
"It's alright, Xiao Li. I heard that buses are now escorted by the military, so I feel reassured."
Jiang Li didn't stop her. "Okay, if you want to come out and have a look, then come out. Just tell me which bus you took before you come."
"Jiang Tang!"
Chen Jiqi's eyes lit up when he saw Jiang Tang.
Jiang Tang frowned. "Were you deliberately waiting for me?"
A hint of guilt flashed in Chen Jiqi's eyes.
He didn't admit it, but instead asked, "Jiang Tang, are you still selling green beans today?"
