《Ancient Wife [ DANMEI MTL ]》2: Don't Worry About Food
Advertisement
When Liang Han was conscious, he only felt pain all over his body.
He opened his eyes to check what was going on, he was surprised to find out, "Where is this? Why am I here?"
Seeing himself in ancient clothes, he couldn't help it but be curious, "How could I dress like this? Could it be that after I was drunk, those guys got together to make fun of me?"
He touched his aching forehead. Then he realized that he still had his hair tied up.
Immediately, he found himself wearing a bun.
Liang Han thought it was impossible , he stretched out his hand and pulled it, very shocked.
"It seems to be true! How could I...how could my hair grow so long overnight?!"
Liang Han finds memories that don't belong to him flooding into his mind. Bite and endure the pain, watching those unfamiliar memories, until the pain disappeared, sweating profusely, he also understood the fact that he had passed through.
For some reason, he wore it on an ancient man with the same name and surname as him. And the man's virtue also made him very speechless.
As for the cause of death of the other party, Liang Han wanted to say that he deserved it!
It's just that he came to an unfamiliar world inexplicably, making him a little helpless.
This era clearly did not appear in any history he knew. Now the world is in a situation where the Three Kingdoms are at the head of the three kingdoms. The three countries are Nanyuan, Shangwu, and Yangping, and because they are evenly matched to contain each other, the three countries are fairly peaceful. And where he is now is the northern part of Nanyuan Country, in a village called Dongluo Village.
Dongluo Village is a medium-sized village with more than 200 people. Not far from the north of the village is the Nanyu Mountains, which stretch for thousands of miles from east to west, and even extend to the territory of Shangwu Kingdom.
The village is located in the north, and the winter is long and cold, and it is common for snow to fall in March, so the crops here can only be grown for one season.
In addition, due to insufficient fertilizer, pests and diseases, weather and other reasons, the yield of grains per mu is generally more than 60 catties but less than 70 catties.
If the yield per mu can reach 100 catties, it will be a bumper harvest.
Moreover, there are no high-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes and corn here, and food production is very limited.

The northwest province of Dongluo Village is a sparsely populated and bitterly cold land.
Because of the land-equalization system, it is limited to places with sufficient land, and a healthy man who is eighteen years old can be granted 100 mu of land.
Among them, 20 acres are Yongye field, and trees such as mulberry, jujube, and elm can be planted within three years, and they cannot be returned after death.
As for the disabled or the elderly, widows and concubines who live in widow will be granted half of the land.
The court deals with the receipt and grant of fields in October every year.
However, according to the original owner's memory, the one mu of land here is smaller than the one mu he knows, it should be less than 500 square meters.
Although there are a lot of men, if all wheat is grown, they can receive more than 5,000 catties of grain in one season, which is not a lot. But the problem is, not to mention the tax per mu, which is about 13 catties of grain tax.
If the grain harvester doesn't kick a fight, this will remove 1,040 catties of grain, but in fact, the grain harvester will kick and fight in order to get some oil and water, and the grain tax paid must be at least one thousand pounds.
And because the tax has to be paid for cloth and cotton, at least two acres of land must be used to grow cotton, and another one mu of land must be used to grow rapeseed.
After all, meat and oil are more expensive. Hundreds of pounds.
That is to say, although there are 80 mu of land per square, in fact, after paying the grain tax, there are only 4,000 catties of grain left.
In addition, because every Ding has to serve 20 days of corvée every year, in leap years, it is 21 days, and the court has to add a few more days.
Although no more than thirty-five days, but if you do not want to do corvée, you have to pay.
Generally, at most two or three people from each household will be sent to do corvée service.
After all, it is a hard and heavy work, and those with weaker bones may no longer be able to do farm work if they are injured.
Then you need to use money to make up for the places you don't go to. There is a fixed amount of money every day, which is the money you have to spend every year.

The people in the village have no other income. Naturally, the money can only be obtained from the sale of grain, and a pound of wheat can only be sold for two cents.
Therefore, each male can only have more than 2,000 catties of food left over each year. If you want to raise a wife and children, you have to work harder.
What's more, because of the farm work, there is not enough oil and water to eat, so each of them can eat specially, so the life of the people here is more difficult.
And because the original owner was already twenty-five years old, he was naturally granted 100 mu of land. It's just that the original owner was lazy and lazy by nature.
Farming in ancient times was definitely a very hard job. Therefore, the original owner did not farm the land as diligently as the villagers, and the yield in the land was even lower.
But because he didn't have to support his wife or children, and he didn't have elderly parents to support, after paying the grain tax and the money for corvee service, the grain he had left was absolutely enough for him to eat.
It's just that the original owner was greedy for enjoyment. After selling most of the grain, he started to squander it when he had some money in his hand, and he could quickly spend all the money from selling the grain.
Therefore, whenever there is no food at home, the original owner will start stealing, and he has never been caught, which is considered good luck.
Thinking of what the original owner did, Liang Han endured the pain and wanted to curse.
When he think of someone who looks exactly like him doing things that make people feel lost, he feel panicked. It's just that no matter how much you hold your breath, you have to find a way to treat the injury first, and he can't stand it when it hurts so much.
Closing his eyes and meditating in his heart, Liang Han was very excited when he saw a virtual panel appear in front of him.
He thought with great joy, "Fortunately, you also walked through with me."
This virtual panel is a portable system console.
It turned out that Liang Han accidentally acquired an alien technology called the Planting System a year ago.
This portable system is a product developed by a company called Cosmos Technology on a planet called Alpha. Its purpose is to enrich the food of the planet, and let the inhabitants of the planet not lose this basic ability to grow.
In addition to releasing it to the residents of the planet where it is located, the universe technology company also randomly releases it into the universe, allowing the system to randomly choose the owner.
And he was fortunate to be a system user because he happened to encounter the system that entered the earth and the spiritual power level met the conditions.
There is planting space in the planting system because the time ratio of inside and outside the system is 10:1.
That is to say, one day outside, ten days have passed in the system space.
Therefore, plants can mature quickly, and users benefit from this.
The system will extract a certain percentage of the harvest results at different levels, and the universe company will also profit from it.
It can be said that this system can be regarded as a win-win product.
Because his system level is level 1, there are only two fields in the planting space, a total of 1200 square meters, and the system extraction rate is 50%.
Because of the low level of the system, only primary plants can be grown temporarily.
The plant grades are divided into three categories, primary, intermediate and advanced, and the distinction method is determined by the system.
If you want to upgrade, you need a lot of farming.
However, the system only rewards 1 point for every 10,000 catties of plants extracted, and 5 gold coins at the same time.
To upgrade to the level 2 system requires 100 points.
As for gold coins, it can be used to buy farmyard manure with the system. It's just that the system upgrade is too difficult.
He has been planting land for more than a year, and he has accumulated a total of 57 points. Of course, this has to do with the fact that he didn't just plant high-yield things because he wanted to upgrade.
In addition to planting, the system also has a warehouse.
In addition to the plants that can be harvested in the storage space, the user also has a certain space for storing external things.
Level 1 systems can collect organics up to 1 million kilograms and use 5 cubic meters of storage space.
Looking at the virtual panel, Liang Han has a lot of confidence in his heart.
With this space, at least in this world he doesn't have to worry about food.

Dragon: Birth of an Ancient
Deep in a secluded forest, within the depths of a long forgotten cave, an unnatural silence that has reigned for little over a million years is shattered as a hatchling takes its first breath. To the various species that called this world, one of seven, home, the matter seemed beyond insignificant. The hatchling, like all monsters, had no divine backing and with its age, could only be considered a lesser existence. A being to be used by the Chosen and noble monster bloodlines in their never-ending pursuit of power, fame and immortality. However, how could any of the short-lived races, Chosen and Monster alike, know that the tiny, weak, lizard-like creature was much more than it seemed. That it was an entity only spoken of in myth and legend. From a species that their ancestors, with the backing of the Gods, paid a huge price to remove. A heretical existence that threatened the fragile peace that had descended upon their world. A Dragon. ==== ** Cover done by the amazing Felix!*** I am writing this story for a friend who is currently in hospital and in a very precarious situation.

When hell freezes over
An ancient seal has been broken and a forgotten power returns to the world gradually, upsetting the balance of normality. People used to say "I'll do that when hell freezes over" jokingly, but now that saying holds more weight in a changing world where people have to get used to the unusual. Ancient creatures hidden in the earth stir from their slumber of centuries, and humanity is not prepared for their ancient powers. Can the human race of steel and fire stand against the creatures created by the most ancient of powers? Is the human race pure enough to band together and form a closed fist as they did centuries ago? Find out in this adventure where Jacob starts off on his way on a normal day towards his job. "I get the feeling this story might be one of those 'diamonds in the rough'. The premise is quite solid, there's plenty of room to flesh out the characters. It's quite easy to get into and be engaged by at the moment, imo. I don't know where the story will go from here, but it's off to a good start me thinks." - Xenower Attribution: The cave picture in the book cover is made by Stanislav Sedov and is licensed under CC-BY-SA-2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/ This picture was modified from the original with an overlaid moon and sea picture to be found at https://www.flickr.com/photos/ssedov/26342569905 The photographer has no affiliation to Tschallacka nor can be held accountable for the use of this picture the way as it is here.
