Ron opened his store and saw the stored wood.
Click!
Crap! Can be sold for: 10 Coins.
Ron is super disappointed to look at this number, but still, it is useful.
Click!
You have sold some useless crap! You have got 10 Coins!
Current Balance: 5,369.
Ron looked back at the things that are useful but thought, "I know what to do with them."
He walked to the bed and placed his hands on it. "Detect."
Ding!
Old shabby bed!
Can be upgraded to a normal single bed! Need 100 Coins to upgrade.
Then Ron clicked on Upgrade.
Ding!
You have used 100 Coins on bed upgrade. It takes 10 minutes to upgrade. Current Balance: 5,269.
Ron also did this to the couch and the vessels.
Ding!
You have spent 150 Coins on upgrades! It takes 10 minutes.
Current Balance: 5,119 Coins.
Ron just waited until the time ran out, but he got another idea as he looked at the damp soil.
He opened the system store.
Ding!
You have bought Zoysia Grass Seeds! You have spent 10 Coins!
Zoysia Grass seeds:
Zoysia grass spreads like wildfire; it is drought-resistant, has weed-smothering ability, and grows with a mat-like structure, producing more oxygen in less soil.
Then he walked to the kitchen water tap, which he hadn't damaged yet. But he placed his hands on it. "Detect."
"Upgrade."
Ding!
You have used 35 Coins! It takes 5 minutes to upgrade.
Current Balance: 5,084.
Now, Ron took a shovel from the store.
Ding!
You have bought a Shovel! You have spent 30 Coins.
Current Balance: 5,054
Ron make a pit line to some places where he can put sprinklers. The hell open the system again,
Ding!
You have bought a big length pipe and Sprinklers. You have spent 100 Coins!
Current Balance: 4,954
Then, he bought a Plumber Tool kit.
Ding!
You have bought Plumber Tool Kit! You have spent 150 Coins!
Current Balance: 4,804
Ron tried to take it directly from the system store, then-
"Damn, why is it so big." He dropped it.
Nothing happened, but now he needs to do a lot of work with these tools.
Ding!
Water Pipe Upgraded!
Ron saw the new pipe with extra features; he can control the speed, and it even came with four holes under the pipe to fit other pipes. At the tap end, it can be stretched to clean vessels.
Ding!
Bed and Couch have been upgraded.
Then, Ron fixed the pipe into the hole, spread it into the pits he ploughed, and filled the pit with mud.
Then he fixed sprinklers on the pipe, and after four hours of spreading the pipe and fixing the sprinklers, the work was finally over. He took out the grass seeds and planted them across all the land.
The grass will spread itself when it becomes big enough, and he just needs to wait for a few days. Then he turned the tap at the bottom, and the sprinklers started to work, with each of them spraying water across the land.
But Ron still had so much pipe left, so he placed it in a spot with the plumber kit, shovel, and hammer.
Ron looked at the sun, "Haaaah! I'm tired." He walked to the couch with lazy legs and fell onto it.
But he remembered something important: he needed to bathe and go to the toilet. He walked to the place where he could still see the toilet. Then he placed his leg on it, "Detect."
Ding!
Crap Toilet! Need 300 Coins to upgrade and make a room for it.
Ron felt irritated, but still, he checked out a good basic design with all the things he needed, even a pipe that automatically connects to the nearby water supply.
Click!
Ding!
You have spent 300 Coins on upgrading your toilet.
Current Balance: 4,504.
It takes 40 minutes to upgrade the toilet.
Ron thought he was going to save a lot of coins and live a good life, but he had to spend a lot of coins just to live a normal, lonely life.
Just then a sound came: "Growl" from his stomach.
He walked to the kitchenware, got a plate, and then he sat on the couch and ordered chow mein.
He took out the noodles and placed them on the plate, digging in.
"Haaaaaaa, what a life. It's been a long time since I ate chow mein," he said while rubbing his stomach on the couch.
"I was treated badly when I was with the family, but now I have a home for myself."
He looked around; he could see a home. "At least I have something for myself," he told himself to feel better.
Ron looked at the balance again to calculate how many days it would take him to level up his coin rate.
He still needed more than 70 days to level up his coin rate again because he also had to spend on food.
But Ron had an idea; he opened his system again.
Ding!
You have bought seeds of green onion, broccoli, spinach, and Royal Empress Tree.
You have spent: 46 coins
Current balance: 4,504 coins
Ron took the seed packets and planted the Royal Empress Tree seeds at the edges around the barrier, as he might soon increase the barrier size.
Then he plowed the land near the house and planted all the seeds separately. After that, he made sure to water them.
Ron's hands were shaking from all the work he had done. Every time he felt sad, he thought of his mother and father, wondering what it would have been like if they had been with him.
"Forget about them; I have to live in this world somehow." He quickly got to work again.
He focused on taking care of the vegetable plants at first, as the Empress Tree would automatically increase its size soon.
Ron used his mobile phone to do extensive research and finally bought this tree because it grows quickly and has beautiful leaves that look good and produce a lot of oxygen.
So, he could easily live in this place without worrying about others.
While Ron was walking around, he saw that it would take many days for the plants to grow.
So, let's wait and see what will happen in the next chapter.
