Chapter 230: Chapter 144: The Future Will Not Be Bad

At that moment, Zhou Bai was still searching for teachers.

After all, she wanted the Hope School to be operational as soon as it was built, so the teachers naturally needed to be prepared ahead of time.

The NPCs in the territory were all ready-to-use, and the special attributes of the Undead bound their interests together, so she didn’t have to fear any mishaps.

Zhou Bai’s little calculations were making quite the noise, and in no time, she had reached the northern production planting area.

As soon as she arrived there, seeing the vast farmland, Zhou Bai’s mood started to brighten.

These were the foundations of the territory.

With grain in hand, the heart is calm!

Even though resource spots outside could refresh from time to time and Demon Beast meat could still be dropped, for Zhou Bai, it was most important that her own territory could produce food.

No matter how much the territory developed in the future, she would always reserve a piece of land for food production.

At that time, many hired humans were clearing weeds in the farmland.

On the Stan Continent, plants grew several times faster than on Blue Star, naturally shortening their growth cycles, which also meant more weeds, requiring daily cleaning.

However, those clearing the weeds were clearly older or had some physical ailments, making this task extremely suitable for them.

Moreover, watching the planting seeds take root and sprout into tangible entities was a satisfying sight.

Among them, the Sheep-headed Man Beck was also in the farmland, but while others were clearing weeds, he was observing the growth of some plants with a few others.

High temperatures had a significant impact on plants.

Thus, they needed to continuously water the plants based on their conditions.

Beck had a natural affinity for plants and could always detect their conditions the fastest.

At that moment, the tomatoes that were red with a hint of green had noticeably wilted leaves, a clear sign of water shortage.

"Now is their growth period, and the soil moisture shouldn’t be too high, this whole area needs watering," Beck instructed after checking.

"Yes, I’ll go fetch water right away," one person said, listening and immediately heading towards the direction of the well.

Speaking of which, it was fortunate that the territory had previously developed a well, otherwise, in this intense heat, they would have had to fetch water from rivers outside the territory, which would have been troublesome.

Subsequently, Beck could give guidance for almost every section he inspected.

After finishing the guidance, Beck began to get busy with the harvest.

Staples like potatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, wheat, etc., only required 40 days to four months to grow on the Stan Continent.

Vegetables grew even faster, basically taking just about 10 days; according to the time they had sown the seeds, it was now the harvest season, and they might have possibly left them in the ground a few more days to reach the best state.

But with the high temperatures coming, if not harvested, they could likely rot in the ground.

So, there wasn’t the need to wait another day or two; it was better to harvest and store them earlier.

After arranging everything, Beck’s lips curled into a soft smile.

The feeling of harvesting was truly great!

As he turned his head to arrange the next batch of seeds, he spotted Zhou Bai’s figure by the edge of the farmland and was startled, hurrying toward her direction.

"Village Chief!" Knowing that others must not recognize Zhou Bai’s identity, Beck seldom greeted her in public, and even when he did, it was the same as he treated others.

But later, as Zhou Bai became the village chief, his actions became entirely normal.

In the eyes of others, it also seemed normal.

After all, since Zhou Bai became the village chief, the NPCs in the territory visibly respected her more; they thought it was due to the territory’s recognition and unconsciously treated Zhou Bai as the territory’s leader.

After all, every move in the territory was proving that Zhou Bai had the capability.

Since they couldn’t achieve that status themselves, it didn’t make much difference who did!

Thus, no one found Beck’s attitude towards Zhou Bai odd and went about their own business after a glance.

"Is the farmland ready for harvest?" Zhou Bai asked in astonishment, looking at the scene in the farmland; it was a bit earlier than she had expected.

"Yes, some have shorter growth periods," Beck earnestly responded. "I have records of each and have kept seeds for the next planting, which can be accurately managed now. Right now, we are just planting small quantities; in the future, we can conduct large-scale planting according to the needs of the territory."
