I became a farmer in the apocalypse.

Jiang Li saw that there were indeed more than a dozen small grape seedlings standing in a small plot of land on the other side. However, at first glance, some had just sprouted from the soil, some had just grown leaves, and some were almost grown into saplings. They were all of different sizes.

"Don't you yet know how to transfer energy using soil as a medium?"

She guessed that Qiao Wu must have forced each seedling to grow individually, which is why they were so uneven, with each seedling at a different stage, some just sprouting and some almost mature.

Qiao Wu shook her head. "Not yet."

Jiang Li told her, "Energy can be transferred through the soil layer. The general idea is that we input energy into the soil so that plants in this area can grow at the same time, thus keeping the plants in a plot of land at the same growth level."

Qiao Wu: "I've used up all my energy for today. I'll try again tomorrow."

Today, she only managed to grow one whole Chinese cabbage and a bunch of uneven grape seedlings.

"It's okay, we can improve it gradually."

Jiang Li opened the employee panel.

[Qiao Wu:]

Job satisfaction: 100

Mood Level: 100

Work efficiency: 20.9%

(Note: "Work efficiency" refers to the efficiency with which employees effectively utilize their superpowers. The use of abilities by employees and the use of abilities by the host are two different concepts! Copying abilities to employees essentially crosses different world systems. What is easy for the host may be more difficult for the residents of this world. Therefore, there is a "work efficiency" parameter value to help the host understand the employees' mastery of their superpowers.)

Jiang Li understood.

It turned out to be the case.

It's okay, you'll definitely get better at this kind of thing with practice. Jiang Li has plenty of patience.

She said to Qiao Wu, "If you are tired, you can rest anytime. I don't expect you to work all the time. However, if you drank the nutrient solution that day, don't waste your energy. Use up all your energy for the day before you rest."

After all, a bottle of nutrient solution costs 10 gold coins, which is quite expensive.

Jiang Li is still reluctant to buy it, hoping that the system can reward Qiao Wu with another bottle of nutrient solution today, since Qiao Wu's work satisfaction and mood scores are both perfect today.

"I'm not tired." Qiao Wu shook her head. "I'll go dig a ditch."

She doesn't need to worry about the crops in her field for now, but the rice paddies still need to be tended.

Qiao Wu grabbed a shovel and went to dig ditches in the rice paddies.

Looking at Qiao Wu's hardworking figure, Jiang Li couldn't help but think that Qiao Wu might really like farming.

Jiang Li carried a golden hoe and arrived at the vineyard.

The original 32 grape seedlings have now been transformed into green walls.

The way she built the trellis meant that the grapevines would climb along the wire mesh, forming four impenetrable grape walls. Each wall was covered with dense green leaves, and bunches of purple grapes hung down from the wire mesh. Walking between the two grape hedges, the air was filled with the aroma of grapes. Some had just formed small green bunches, while others were already purple and ripe.

The fruit was so heavy that Jiang Li was even a little worried that the support rod might not be able to withstand it.

Jiang Li couldn't resist picking a small bunch and eating it while standing between the two grape walls.

The grapes she grows herself taste so good. Jiang Li doesn't want to buy agricultural products from the safe zone anymore. Whether it's rice, vegetables, or fruits, she'll eat what she grows herself from now on, achieving complete self-sufficiency.

While they were eating, Jiang Yan came over, carrying a wooden basin.

They came to pick grapes.

"Sister, someone came over and said they want to buy grapes, a pound, I'll pick them for them fresh."

Grapes spoil easily after being picked, so Jiang Li only ripens a small portion of them and displays a small bunch in the refrigerated display case of the shop, while the rest are ripened slowly as needed.

Jiang Yan picked out a bunch, which was probably enough. After picking them, he put them in a wooden basin and took them back to the shop.

"The grapes you requested have arrived."

The person buying the grapes was a young man. When he came to buy rice, he saw a bunch of plump and juicy grapes in the display case and couldn't resist the temptation.

He watched as Jiang Yan packed the grapes for him. "These grapes are bigger than jujubes, they must be delicious!"

Jiang Yan: "Of course, it's delicious, you can try one."

As she spoke, she handed him one.

The person ate it and immediately ascended to heaven.

"Wow! This is completely different from the grapes I've ever eaten before. It's bursting with juice in one bite, and it has a berry and floral aroma."

The grapes he used to eat were either too sweet or too sour, and the skins were very astringent. These, however, are not astringent at all; they are sweet and fragrant.

"I'm not kidding you, am I? Something this expensive, I couldn't possibly lie to you."

The man paid with points, took the bag, and walked away while eating.

Jiang Yan kept accounts in a small notebook and then tidied up the display case.

The display cases are all equipped with refrigeration, which can extend the shelf life, and only a small number of exhibits are placed inside, such as Chinese cabbage, pumpkin, eggplant and garlic, which are picked fresh as soon as someone buys them.

Jiang Yan also marked the prices on them, making it easy to see at a glance.

[Friendly Reminder: Your beverage cart can be upgraded! Upgrade it now!]

Jiang Li was digging for gold, facing the loess soil with his back to the sky, when he saw the news and was stunned.

Is it ready for upgrade?

Upon inspection, it was confirmed that the stall's revenue had indeed exceeded 10000.

What will happen after the upgrade?

She remembered that the system had said it would give her three beverage recipes and a fully automatic beverage machine after the upgrade.

Open the panel to view.

[Beverage Cart (lv1): Once the sales target is met, it can be upgraded to a beverage van. Upgrading requires 20000 points.]

Jiang Li: "Huh?"

A street vendor can be transformed into a campervan?

That's amazing!

The two are not even in the same league. She thought that after the upgrade, they would at most make her stall bigger and add a juicer or something, but she didn't expect it to turn into a motorhome.

It only costs 20000 points, which is definitely not the price of the RV itself. The key reason for the upgrade is that the turnover target is met, and the points are just a token gesture.

She'll definitely upgrade, but not now. If she upgrades now, it'll probably scare everyone. Let's upgrade secretly tonight.

Ye Hongjun and Ye Tong arrived carrying their tools.

"Miss Jiang, where do you want to build your tool shed?"

Jiang Li found a spot. "Let's build it here. It's not far from the fields and vegetable garden."

"OK."

"How about I make you a 3m x 4m one? A little bigger," Ye Hongjun suggested.

"no problem."

They even gave her 2 square meters of space, what's wrong with that?

Ye Hongjun first cleared the site, then drove several small wooden stakes into the ground to determine the angles and orientations. He then used ropes to draw out a rectangle, checked the diagonals, and verified the dimensions, thus basically determining the specific construction location.

The positions of the columns and ground beams were then marked with lime, and the surface was leveled...

"What are you doing?" Qiao Wu, who was taking a break, came over with a glass of grape iced tea.

She originally wanted to use her points to buy it, but Jiang Tang said she could drink it for free as an employee benefit and that she wouldn't have to pay for it.

Jiang Li explained to her, "Uncle Ye is helping to build a tool shed, which will be used to store farm tools and fertilizer in the future."

Qiao Wu nodded, then strolled off, unable to resist going to admire Jiang Li's vineyard.

I wish she could grow so many plants at once someday.

As the sun set, the farm gates closed, and the group of people from the dark alley left; the farm was no longer open to the public.

Five people and a pig sat around the small dining table in the safe house, eating dinner and fruit.

I brought back some spare ribs from the safe zone today and made a big pot of braised spare ribs. I also stir-fried pumpkin and potatoes and drank grape iced tea while eating.

Qiao Wu had never eaten such a sumptuous dinner before. After eating and drinking her fill, she returned to the small shop, laid out a makeshift bed on the floor, browsed the Ninth Base forum for a while, and then fell into a drowsy sleep.

While everyone was asleep, Jiang Li secretly started construction.
