Chapter 6: Plan
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Keep a low profile, I must keep a low profile!
Zhao Hai, who had read countless transmigration novels, knew very well that if you did not keep a low profile in the other world, you would not have a good ending. Zhao Hai believed that novels were just fantasies. The reason why those protagonists could control the wind and rain in the other world was all because of the author’s cheat and plot armor. If a person was still so arrogant in a completely unfamiliar environment, the consequences would definitely be tragic.
Zhao Hai was the last heir of the Buda family. However, they had offended the largest forces in the Aksu Empire. Under such circumstances, if he did not keep a low profile, he would be the first to die.
Although he could hide in the Space Farm, there were too many ways to kill someone. Zhao Hai did not want to lose his head in his sleep.
Just as Zhao Hai was thinking about this, there was a knock on the door. Zhao Hai was stunned, but he immediately said, “Come in.”
Meg pushed the door open and walked in. She lowered her head and did not look at Zhao Hai. She bowed to Zhao Hai and said, “Young Master.” She did not say anything else.
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly when he saw Meg’s expression. The reason why Meg did not look up at him was that Adam had wanted to molest her because of her beauty, but he had not succeeded. However, from then on, Meg had always avoided Adam. Even when they met, she would only lower her head and call him Young Master before turning to leave.
Zhao Hai sighed. This was all Adam’s fault, but he had to bear the responsibility. Heavens, what kind of sin was this?
Zhao Hai looked at Meg and sighed. “I’m fine. Go and rest. I want to sleep for a while. Just wake me up for dinner.”
Meg nodded and left. After leaving, she gently closed the door for Zhao Hai. Seeing Meg avoid him like she was escaping, Zhao Hai smiled bitterly.
Now that his body was completely fine, he did not feel uncomfortable at all. The reason why he said that he wanted to rest was to organize Adam’s memories and see if there was anything he missed out. In addition, he had the Space Farm now, which would greatly help his future development. He had to think about how to use this Space Farm better.
His space farm was growing radishes. If he sold these radishes to the shop, he would be able to earn at least 500 gold coins. In other words, he could earn 350 gold coins in profits.
He could also take these radishes out of the warehouse and let Grimm sell them elsewhere in the Ark Continent. This way, he might be able to obtain more gold coins.
But most importantly, he did not know if there were vegetables like radishes in the Ark Continent. Adam was a prodigal in the past, so it was impossible for him to do grocery shopping. He usually ate high quality food. He would not ask what was in the food, so he did not know if there were radishes in this continent.
If he could not sell those radishes outside, he would have to sell them to the shop. Radishes were treasures, and the radishes collected by the system should only be the body of the radish. The system probably would not take the leaves. The radish leaves were actually very delicious. As long as they were marinated, they could become a delicacy.
Zhao Hai lived in northern China, so he clearly remembered that when he was young, his mother often used pickled radish leaves to cook. The taste was also very good.
Moreover, these radish leaves could be used to feed some herbivores. If there were no radishes in this world, they could sell the radishes and leave the leaves to feed some herbivores. In Adam’s memory, there were some magical beasts that were easy to feed. They could eat anything. When the time came, they could raise those magical beasts in large numbers. At that time, they would not have to worry about not having meat to eat. Moreover, they could set up a ranch. This way, they would naturally have more income.
Even if this world had radishes and the price was not high, he could sell them to the system shop and keep the radish leaves. No matter what, they would not be wasted.
Because his level was not high enough, Zhao Hai could not open a ranch in the Space Farm. However, he could open a ranch in the Ark Continent first. When the Space Farm was upgraded in the future, he could open a ranch and raise some Earth animals.
Zhao Hai had already thought it through. His future development would depend upon farming. After all, the Space Farm lacked offensive abilities, so farming was the most suitable for him.
Now, he had a large fief, a mountain, a land of death, and Carrion Swamp. These places were all his territories, but it would take a lot of time to make these territories useful.
Zhao Hai only hoped that the water and soil in the Space Farm could really change the Black Soil Wilderness. In that case, he would have a large piece of land to farm. No matter what, land was the foundation.
Zhao Hai had never been worried about manpower because he knew that there was a category of person in this world that did not exist on Earth. They were slaves.
There were no slaves on Earth, but there were slaves here. As long as you had money, you could buy many slaves. The life and death of these slaves were completely decided by you. They were absolutely loyal to you and could not escape because every slave was branded with the special mark of the family that purchased them. Once they were discovered to have escaped, the consequences would be tragic.
Therefore, as long as his farm could earn money, he did not have to worry about manpower. There were many slaves on the continent. As long as someone could provide them with a suitable price, those nobles could turn countless people into slaves.
Nobles possessed everything. This world was that simple.
However, with Zhao Hai’s current status, if he suddenly bought a large number of slaves, it would definitely attract the attention of others. Therefore, no matter what, he had to keep a low profile. Keeping a low profile was his plan, and farming was his main development direction.
After thinking about this, Zhao Hai heaved a sigh of relief and slowly lay on the bed. He still felt like he was in a dream. He was an ordinary otaku on Earth. Although he liked to read transmigration novels, that did not mean that he wanted to transmigrate. However, who would have thought that such a thing would really happen to him?
Heavens, if you force an otaku away from the computer, isn’t it equivalent to turning a sex maniac into a eunuch? This is too cruel.
Zhao Hai sighed and threw himself on the bed. Looking at the stone roof, he couldn’t help but sigh again. There were no entertainment facilities at all in this place. How could he live every day? What about my novels?
Perhaps because he had just received too many memories and obtained the unexpected joy of the Space Farm, Zhao Hai was very excited for a while. Now that the excitement was over, he felt waves of exhaustion. Unknowingly, he fell asleep again.
What Zhao Hai did not realize was that just as he fell asleep, the door to his room was pushed open. Meg stuck her head in and saw that Zhao Hai was asleep. She walked in quietly and picked up the blanket on the bed to cover Zhao Hai. Then, she stood by the bed and looked at Zhao Hai. She sighed and muttered, “Young Master, you have to work hard. The Buda family is relying on you.”
With that, she turned and walked out, closing the door behind her.
Just as Meg came out of Zhao Hai’s room, Grimm walked over and looked at Meg. “Meg, how is the young master? What is he doing?”
Meg said, “Nothing, he is asleep.”
Grimm nodded and said, “Go and see if your grandmother has finished cooking. When it’s ready, call the young master to eat. Sigh, since we’re already here, the etiquette of the nobles can only be put aside.” With that, he shook his head and walked back.
Meg looked at her grandfather. She knew his feelings very well. Her grandfather had given his entire life to the Buda family and saw it fall before his eyes. How could Grimm feel good?
Meg walked toward the kitchen. Although Merlyn was the only cook here, she was only responsible for their food. She did not have to care what the slaves outside ate. Grimm had already given food ingredients to the slaves. They would cook for themselves.
Meg agreed with his method. The slaves usually had a pitiful life, but they were doing well here. They might not have good food to eat, but they could still eat their fill. Other nobles would not even let them eat their fill.
Meg was very clear about the situation. The Buda family was relying on her grandfather now. This Young Master, Adam, did not know anything at all. Now, she only hoped that Adam would be sensible and stop fooling around. Otherwise, the Buda family would really have no hope.
But even if Adam was sensible, he had a lot to learn. In the past, he was just a profligate son who was a typical example of ignorance and incompetence. He had no experience in managing a family at all. If he was sensible and willing to learn, it would be fine. But if he was still unwilling to learn and managed the family blindly, with their current situation, they would fall to a dire straits within a few years.
Although the Buda family was not too rich in the past, they were still a noble family. Moreover, although they had been convicted, their assets were not confiscated. Therefore, they still had a lot of money. In total, they had about 100,000 gold coins. This was not a small sum.
But now, the money had been exchanged for various supplies, and there were only more than 100 gold coins left. If Buda was still as extravagant as before, they would probably starve to death.
Now, Adam’s actions determined the survival of the Buda family.
