Chapter 306: Chapter 305: Truly Worthy of the Beast Taming Master!

The corn produced this year had an average quality higher than before, but there were few exceptional ones.

Lacking Little Pink and Little Blue from last year.

Those two ears of corn earned Xu Yang quite a bit of money last year.

Xu Yang didn’t really lack money now and even thought about finding an exceptional ear of corn to keep as a collection.

But he hadn’t come across one.

However, the livestreaming was very effective since there were quite a number of good gem corns.

A netizen who played with trinkets couldn’t help asking when they saw this scene:

["Host, what variety of gem corn are you growing? I planted an acre myself and hardly found any good ones."]

["I also want to ask, his harvest rate is so high!"]

["Old Xu’s Farm really has good feng shui!"]

Generally speaking, the probability of finding gem corn with good sellable appearance is extremely low, and it would be considered great if they could mature properly.

The cornfield planted by Xu Yang was obviously much better than others.

Xu Yang didn’t read the barrage and thus didn’t respond to this question.

In fact, his seeds were good, the soil was good, and combined with his own advanced planting technique, the corn naturally grew plump.

Xu Yang was livestreaming the unwrapping of corn "blind boxes" when, at that moment, the Treasure Compass suddenly triggered a treasure hunting task.

["Triggered Treasure Hunting Task: Light Pink! Beautiful Gem Corn!"]

["Task requirement: Make three dogs and one wolf carry out three sets of different command actions simultaneously."]

["Task reward: Exceptional light pink gemstone corn."]

Hearing this voice, Xu Yang felt surprised.

The Treasure Compass had a very low probability of triggering a treasure hunting task, but previously it had only appeared in the forest.

Now even on the farm, it could be triggered.

The task difficulty was reasonable, and Xu Yang, who had gotten rather bored of peeling corn, stood up to stretch himself out a bit.

He took the opportunity to say to his employees: "Take a break, and we’ll peel the corn later."

The employees also took a rest along with him.

Xu Yang looked toward the potato field; the dogs were all there, and the raccoon too.

Xu Yang called them over.

"You guys, come here,"

Xu Yang shouted.

As soon as he called out, the dogs immediately ran over, with Little Wolf and the raccoon following.

The little guys haphazardly stood on the grass, looking at Xu Yang.

This system task wasn’t too difficult for him.

After all, he had trained these little ones.

The netizens watching the scene were filled with envy.

["Ah, such cute little dogs!"]

["That little wolf is so well-behaved, are you sure it’s a wolf?"]

["And there’s even a little raccoon? It’s actually quite cute?"]

["Old Xu has too many animals!"]

Not only the dogs and the raccoon but even Little Mei Hua, the Sika Deer, came over to join in the fun.

The task required three dogs and one wolf.

Xu Yang’s gaze fell upon the Husky.

He wasn’t worried about Little Black and Yuanbao; after all, the Pasture Dog and Maquan were known for their good obedience.

But this Husky really didn’t play by the rules.

That intelligent look, as if contemplating what to take apart next.

The Husky looked at Xu Yang suspiciously, its eyes wide open, sensing something was off.

That look seemed to say:

"What are you looking at me for?"

Xu Yang turned his head and said to the netizens in the livestreaming room:

"I regularly train these dogs, and they are all very obedient."

"Let me demonstrate for you."

With that, Xu Yang looked at the dogs.

"Atten-hut!"

"Sit!"

As Xu Yang commanded them to sit, Maquan and Little Black immediately sat down, chest out and head high.

They were the top students.

Little Wolf also sat down, but his head swiveled from side to side, his body still shifting a little.

He was the average student.

The Husky gave Xu Yang an intelligent look, tilted its head, as if it didn’t understand what Xu Yang was saying.

Xu Yang gave it a "do you want a fight?" look.

The Husky immediately sat down.

At that moment, the system sent a prompt:

["Command 1/3 completed, task begins."]

The image in the livestream was quite entertaining.

What the viewers found even more amusing was that, although the Little Raccoon didn’t know what the dogs were doing, it imitated them and plonked down on its butt, tail forward, displaying its round belly.

It looked very comical.

["Hahaha, what kind of animals has Old Xu raised!"]

["These guys are too cute!"]

["Truly worthy of being a Beast Taming Master!"]

At this time, Xu Yang gave another command:

"Stand up!"

As he spoke, this time all the dogs stood up, and the Little Raccoon also attempted to stand up like them.

What came next was a more difficult scene.

One could only see that Xu Yang took a deep breath, as if he was preparing for something.

All the dogs were staring intently at him, with Maquan even excitedly taking a small step forward.

The viewers were also captivated.

What was he planning?

The next move was either "shake hands" or "lie down," right?

At that moment, Xu Yang made a "gun" gesture with his right hand.

Then pointing at the dogs, he said:

"Play dead!"

Upon hearing Xu Yang’s command, the viewers were instantly amused.

What?

Play dead?

Are you kidding me?

Little Black and Yuanbao proved to be star pupils, as they immediately lay down on the ground, eyes closed and motionless.

Maquan even stuck out its tongue, looking the very picture of a dead dog.

Little Wolf lay down, too, closing its eyes as if it had fallen asleep.

Husky looked at Xu Yang and, under his somewhat threatening gaze, let out a sigh before reluctantly flipping over with its four legs in the air and then, tilting its head back, peered at Xu Yang from its forehead’s direction.

Noticing Xu Yang was still watching, the Husky closed its eyes as well.

Guess it knows the score.

[Treasure Hunting Task completed.]

[Reward obtained: Top-quality light pink Gem Corn!]

The system notification sounded.

With the task successfully completed, Xu Yang couldn’t help but smile.

At this moment, Little Raccoon walked over to Little Black, looking worried, and nudged him with a little paw as if trying to wake him up.

But without Xu Yang’s command, Little Black remained in a play-dead state.

The viewers were stunned by this scene.

The live chat instantly came alive.

[OMG! These dogs can play dead? How on earth did he train them?]

[Even cooler than Pan Hong!]

[Hahaha, these dogs are too smart!]

[This little raccoon is freaking out, really thinking the dogs died!]

The atmosphere in the live stream was light-hearted.

Xu Yang’s content always felt amusing.

At that time, Xu Yang ordered with a smile,

"Alright, stop pretending, get up."

Upon hearing Xu Yang’s command, the dogs and Little Wolf rolled back over and stood up.

Little Raccoon, startled, scurried over to Little Black, touching him several times to make sure he was still alive.

The episode brought much joy to the live stream.

Then, Xu Yang waved his hand, signaling the little critters to go play on their own.

Maquan and Little Black headed off to the fields to frolic, with Little Wolf joining them, while Husky went to find its roe deer buddy.

The two companions sauntered slowly together, occasionally inspecting the mop with knowing glances, undoubtedly hatching some plan.

Xu Yang could never have imagined that a plain farm could gather such legendary figures.

Truly treasures.

Xu Yang then told his workers to get back to work.

Everyone started husking corn again.

Xu Yang picked up one, the very one that was the system’s reward: the top-quality light pink Gem Corn.

When Xu Yang peeled back a few husks, the light pink corn kernels came into view.

The viewers felt as if a light had flashed before their eyes.

Good stuff just feels different.

Many expensive items need just one look to tell they’re valuable.

From the overall texture to the unique charm, they’re just different from other things.

"We’ve got a big catch!"

Xu Yang knew how the corn looked and couldn’t help but exclaim in delight.

This light pink Gem Corn was especially beautiful, even nicer than the one he had sold before.

Each kernel was light pink.

Full of a young girl’s touch.

The live stream buzzed once again.

[Wow, that’s a beautiful ear of corn!]

[Fake, it’s gotta be fake! That’s a model, it must be a model!]

[How does he keep finding these treasures?]

[Dang, he’s pulled another one!]

[Just say it, how much? I’ll buy it!]

Quite a few people private messaged Xu Yang, wanting to buy this Gem Corn.

This time, Xu Yang didn’t plan to sell.

He liked how the corn looked.

He had been in need of money before but now he decided to keep it as a collection, occasionally enjoying it after some processing.

The feel of the corn kernels as they slid through his fingers was quite nice.

"I’m not selling this corn; I plan to keep it for myself."

"No need to bid anymore."

"It really is beautiful."

Xu Yang, holding the light pink Gem Corn, showed it off to the viewers.

Under the drone’s camera, every detail of the corn was clearly displayed.

The farmworkers gathered around, eyes wide and faces filled with amazement as they looked on.

They never thought corn could be grown like this.

If corn could be considered a race, then this would surely be the most precious, delicate princess of the corn tribe.

"Such a beautiful corn."

"The Farm Director is so capable, finding another top-quality corn!"

"It has to be you!"

The workers praised one by one.

Xu Yang felt good.

He told the workers to continue husking the corn while he took the Gem Corn back into the house.

Better to store it away first.

Such a good treasure.

This year’s corn hadn’t been sown in vain.

Xu Yang was very popular, and many antiquity enthusiasts had seen the related videos.

After these people’s verification, Xu Yang’s corn was confirmed to be real, and it was indeed the most top-quality light pink Gem Corn.

A few others like it could hardly be found across the whole internet.

For a while, everyone envied Xu Yang’s farm.

What a piece of blessed land it truly was!
