Chapter 289 - The Fourth Brocade Sachet



Chapter 289 The Fourth Brocade Sachet

In front of everybody, colorful flowers were blossoming vigorously, and an assortment of fruit trees were standing. They could smell the fragrance of grasses and the soil…

Han Fei swallowed. The plantation that Old Jiang left for him back in the Heavenly Water Village was a thousand acres, and he was almost exhausted to death when he tended to it on his own. This plantation, on the other hand, was much larger and would only be more exhausting. Xiao Zhan pointed at the plantation that had a coverage of a hundred thousand acres and said, “Starting from today, you’re no longer restricted, and you’re free to go to the level-two fishery, provided that the plantation is well-maintained over the next year.”

“Over the next year?”

Everybody exclaimed in shock.

Han Fei was quite shocked. “Sir, seriously? Farming for a whole year?”

Zhang Xuanyu was almost weeping. “Sir, I think we’re good enough for the level-three fishery!” Luo Xiaobai said, “Sir, I don’t understand.”

Xia Xiaochan asked, “Can we not farm?”

Le Renkuang mumbled, “Farming is not bad. You can get your own food.”

“Just shut up.”

Everybody glared at the fatty, who knew nothing but how to eat.

Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan were confused too. Weren’t they here for further studies? Why were they asked to farm? Should they at least wait until they became peak-level great fishing masters like their senior brothers and sisters?

Xiao Zhan glanced at them and said, “You two are less gifted, but it’s not a problem. Talent is not everything. You will train yourselves well here.”

Then, Xiao Zhan spoke to Han Fei’s team. “In one year, I want you to take Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan to the level of a great fishing master. In the meantime, you probably won’t become Dangling Fishers in the next year yourselves.”

“Pu…”

Everybody was dumbfounded. Why are you talking like we are the teachers instead of you? What will you do if we’re responsible for grooming the junior students?

Also, why are we not allowed to be Dangling Fishers? What can we do except to make a breakthrough if there’s no room for advancement?

After that, Xiao Zhan was about to leave, when he suddenly stopped. “Oh, I forgot to give you my fourth brocade sachet.”

Then, Xiao Zhan gave the brocade sachet to them and said, “Remember, two can go to the ocean at one time at most, the other three must stay here.” Xiao Zhan left rather quickly. He even picked a melon in the plantation on the way.

Luo Xiaobai opened the brocade sachet and opened it. Her face changed, and she showedHan Fei.

Han Fei accepted the sachet, and it said, “Suppress your cultivation at the peak of a great fishing master, practice the basics in the plantation for a year, and survive in the level-two fishery for a year.” Everybody frowned after they read the sachet. Zhang Xuanyu was confused. “Practice the basics?”

Xia Xiaochan asked, “What if a breakthrough is inevitable?”

Luo Xiaobai shook her head. “Let’s try to avoid that. This fourth brocade sachet is definitely harder than the previous three. It must have a deeper meaning.”

Le Renkuang scratched his head. “But I can’t think of any deeper meaning… Han Fei, can you?”

Han Fei chuckled. “I don’t have time for that. All that I can think about is how we can farm the hundred thousand acres of land.”

Zhang Xuanyu patted Han Fei’s shoulder and said in mixed feelings, “Han Fei, you are the only one with farming experience. You should be leading our team this time.”

Han Fei raised his eyes. “Seriously?”

Luo Xiaobai nodded too. “I agree. I really don’t know how to farm.”

Han Fei grinned. “That’s fine with me. You must remember what you’ve asked of me…”

Xia Xiaochan asked suspiciously, “Why? What’s on your mind?”

Han Fei snapped his finger and said, “What’s on my mind? As the leader, I have to take the full picture into consideration!”

Xia Xiaochan immediately glared at him. “You’re going to devote all your time to leading instead of working?”

Seeing that Xia Xiaochan had drawn her dagger, Han Fei smiled embarrassedly. “Do I look like that kind of person?”

Xia Xiaochan glared at him. “Yes, you do.”

Zhang Xuanyu agreed. “No wonder I had a bad feeling just now. So, you intend to slack off…”

Han Fei interrupted him in a hurry. “Zhang Xuanyu, be responsible for what you say! I’m the one who will irrigate the plantation with spiritual energy, won’t I?”

Le Renkuang mumbled, “But that doesn’t mean you can slack off… How can we work on a hundred thousand acres of land?”

Han Fei waved his hand at a member of The Fish Dragons, and a level-nine fisher ran to him quickly. “Young Master, what’s your order?”

Han Fei said, “You will ask a hundred people to measure the whole plantation. Also, deliver me some brushes and paper.”

This particular member couldn’t have looked more awful. A hundred people to measure a hundred thousand acres of land?

Han Fei, however, took out dozens of Phantom Fish and said, “These tonics can help all of you become fishing masters.”

This member was energized. “Not a problem at all. Rest assured, Young Master. It will only take… Three days for us to complete this task.”

Han Fei nodded in satisfaction. “Ask some others to pick all the different spiritual fruit in this plantation and mark their locations on the map. Remember, do not miss any.”

“Yes, Young Master.”

Zhang Xuanyu looked at the member who just left in shock. “Is that… All?”

Han Fei smiled weirdly and became like one of the best students.

Han Fei said confidently, “In order to accomplish a task, you have to be well-prepared first. Are a hundred thousand acres big? Yes and no. What we’re going to do is to divide that area into different zones for the spiritual plants. But that’s not enough. So, I’m planning to eliminate the plants we don’t need and only keep those we need. In that case, we can increase the yield of those plants and reduce the variety of the plants. With Xiaobai and Qu Jinnan’s help, it will be done within a month.”

Everyone: “???”

Le Renkuang scratched his head. “I’m not following you.”

Zhang Xuanyu was suspicious. “I get it. You’re going to prune the plantation.”

Xia Xiaochan asked, “But we still have to farm, don’t we?”

Luo Xiaobai nodded. “I don’t understand all the details, but I agree with your plan.”

Han Fei said proudly, “What do you know? According to my plan, we can save eleven months of time. We’ll be able to sleep every day after the first month of hard work.”

Everyone: “???”

Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan were both stunned but did not dare ask any questions. All in all, they only needed to do what Han Fei asked them to…

Far away, at the gate of the campus…

Old Bai frowned and said, “This is not working out! That boy is quite clever. His heart can’t be nurtured this way.”

Wenren Yu said casually, “Rest assured. They may want to slack off, but… Aren’t The Fish Dragons expanding after making a huge profit? They will have a lot to work on in the future.”

Xiao Zhan scratched his head. “What’s in Han Fei’s head? I don’t know what he is up to, but it seems rather impressive.”

Old Bai snorted. “It’s just petty smartness. Later, you’ll ask Han Fei to till the land and endow spiritual energy, Zhang Xuanyu to irrigate with water, the little fatty to cut the weeds with his battle techniques, and Xia Xiaochan to harvest. As for Luo Xiaobai, she’s a manipulator, and she has to contribute when the work in the plantation is planned.”

Wenren Yu nodded. “In this way, everybody’s abilities will be practiced.”

Xiao Zhan asked, “What about Qu Jinnan and Ling Yuan?”

Old Bai chuckled. “Let’s wait and see. You really think that they will not go out but fully focus on grooming the junior students?”

A month had passed.

The plantation of the Thug Academy had turned into multiple square lands. Next to each land was a wood sign that had the spiritual plants’ names on it. The lands were connected by ravines and trails for the convenience of walking.

At the center of the plantation, on the training ground that was the size of four football fields, a Mantis Shrimp was lying on the ground in boredom, wagging its nine tails.

Among them, two tails were dancing and whipping a young man and a young woman.

BAM!

Ling Yuan protected Qu Jinnan with a shield, but in the next moment, they were both blown away.

They had been blown away too many times… Recently, they had been making remarkable progress when they fought the Nine-Tailed Mantis Shrimp in the day and cultivated spiritual energy at night.

Ling Yuan pulled Qu Jinnan and said, “Your Sea God Grasses can’t control its tails at all. Also, you’re not fluent with the technique that Senior Brother Han Fei taught you. You could have dodged it.”

Qu Jinnan said, blushing, “I… I was hoping to tie it up with the Sea God Grasses. But I was too slow. I won’t do it again.”

Ling Yuan shook her head. “It’s impossible for you to control it… It has nine tails! Also, you know how strong it is. If Senior Brother Han Fei hadn’t only allowed it to use two tails, we would’ve been killed.”

Cling… Cling… Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan swooshed past the training ground. Han Fei even shouted, “Qu Jinnan, why have you failed again? Your body hardness has to reach the peak of a beginner fishing master. That’s an order.”

Qu Jinnan: “…”

He and Ling Yuan had seen Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan rushing by too many times.

Little White sighed. “Senior Sister Xiaobai will arrive soon.”

As they expected, a moment later…

Cling… Cling…

Luo Xiaobai walked out unhurriedly and looked at them. “Did you see Han Fei and Xia Xiaochan?”

Ling Yuan blinked her eyes. “Well, they just ran off with a watermelon. I don’t know where they went though.”

Luo Xiaobai was quite gloomy, as those two guys had stolen food again! In only one month, they had eaten up almost a hundred kinds of spiritual fruits. Thankfully, Le Renkuang and Zhang Xuanyu had gone to the level-two fishery, or even more spiritual fruits would’ve gone extinct.
