Zhao Hai frowned and said, “Will it be dangerous? Grandma Merlyn, if it’s dangerous, let’s not raise fish first. After all, no matter how important raising fish is, it’s not as important as your safety.”

Merlyn was moved, but she still smiled and said, “Young Master, don’t worry. I’m a level-eight water mage after all. It’s easy to deal with a magical beast.”

Seeing how confident Merlyn was, Zhao Hai could only nod and say, “Alright, but we can put this matter aside for now. Tomorrow, we have to organize people to take a good look at the suitable land nearby. The land improvement comes first.”

Merlyn nodded. Although the business in the Ark Continent was very developed, the Buda family did not pay much attention to business. They were nobles. In their eyes, land was the key.

No one interrupted Merlyn and Zhao Hai. There was no need to talk about Wood and Rock. The two of them were not very smart. They would do whatever they were told. Letting them make suggestions was equivalent to playing the lute to a cow. Although Meg was very smart, she was still too young. She did not live in an era of information explosion like Zhao Hai, so she still had a lot to learn. She really could not interfere in the discussion between Zhao Hai and Merlyn.

Zhao Hai quickly finished his dinner and drank kea in the living room before returning to his room. There were only so many things to do in the castle now. As long as they were arranged properly, there was no need to worry too much.

There was no entertainment here. It was isolated from the world. At night, other than sleeping, there was nothing else to do. Zhao Hai returned to his room because he wanted to see the situation in the Space Farm.

Zhao Hai felt very bored at night. When he was on Earth, he was an otaku, and otakus were mostly night owls. In the past few days, he had been too busy, so he could still sleep at night. However, he had slept during the day today and could not sleep now, so he naturally ran to the Space Farm to take a look.

The Space Farm was still the same, but the seedlings of corn and radishes had already grown. Fortunately, there were no pests. Looking at the growing seedlings, Zhao Hai was a little excited.

These seedlings represented hope. Zhao Hai did not have much ambition. He only wanted to live well in this other world.

Back on Earth, he was just an otaku. He had no ambitions and only wanted to live his life.

After arriving in the other world, he obtained Adam’s body and knew about Adam’s background. He knew that Adam had a huge grudge, but Zhao Hai also knew that this revenge was not easy to take. They were facing an empire.

The Buda family was beaten to this state from their peak. With their current strength, it would be good enough if they could keep their lives, let alone take revenge.

Although he had the Space Farm as a cheat, it had a huge flaw. It lacked offensive methods.

The Space Farm was great. It could grow vegetables and store things, but it did not have any offensive ability. On the Ark Continent, true experts were best at attacking. A mage like Merlyn could kill a thousand people with magic in an instant. Compared to Merlyn, Zhao Hai was not even a newborn baby. He was only an ant. If Merlyn wanted to crush him, she could do it with a finger.

It was because of this that Zhao Hai wanted to keep a low profile. If those old nobles found out that he had such an ability, they might kill him immediately.

Fortunately, Zhao Hai had completely absorbed Adam’s memories. Although Adam was an ignorant and incompetent guy, he still knew some common knowledge about the continent. Zhao Hai was not a brainless person who would think that he was the boss of the world as soon as he transmigrated. He was not so ambitious as to want to dominate earth and pierce the heavens. He also knew that if he really dared to be so high-profile, he would be the first to die.

The characteristics of the Space Farm determined that it was impossible for Zhao Hai to become an invincible expert. In addition, Adam had already drunk the Void Water. Not to mention becoming an expert, he could not even become a low-level warrior.

Zhao Hai’s greatest reliance now was the Space Farm, but this thing that he had suddenly obtained made him feel uncertain. He was afraid that it would disappear one day.

This sense of urgency made Zhao Hai think about how to improve his territory as soon as possible. Although he could improve the black soil every day, it was also because of this that he was even more worried.

Would those old nobles let them go just because they were sent to the Black Soil Wilderness? Not necessarily. Those guys would definitely send people to watch them. If they noticed the changes here, those old nobles would not stay on their hands.

Zhao Hai sat in the Space Farm and concluded what he had to do in two words: low profile. He had to make his fortune silently.

Although he knew that the radishes and corn here were growing well, Zhao Hai still watered them. Now, he was taking care of these seedlings with all his heart.

Watering in the Space Farm was very convenient. With a thought, the spring water in the space seemed to be lifted by an invisible force and floated to the sky before falling like light rain.

Looking at the ground that was getting wet, Zhao Hai immediately stopped. He knew that he could not water it too much, or the crops might be damaged.

After everything was done, Zhao Hai came out of the Space Farm. He looked at the sky outside and saw that it was completely dark. The slaves were already asleep, and there was no places with lights on in the castle. The entire castle seemed to be sleeping as night fell.

In such a quiet environment, Zhao Hai’s heart slowly calmed down. He knew that whatever he was thinking now was unnecessary. He had to take it step by step. The most important thing now was to resolve the problem of food for the hundred people in the castle. Not only did he have to provide enough food, but also provide good food.

Responsibility. Zhao Hai deeply felt this sentence. When he was on Earth, he had no family, so he only needed to care about himself. But after coming here, the lives of these hundred or so people and the future of the Buda family were placed on Zhao Hai’s shoulders. Therefore, he was very careful with every step, afraid that he would make a mistake.

Being willing to take responsibility was also a sign of maturity. Zhao Hai was more mature now than when he was on Earth because reality had forced him to be mature.

After standing quietly in front of the window for a while, Zhao Hai returned to the bed even if he was not sleepy. Now that they were short of resources, he could not waste them. Unknowingly, he fell asleep again.

“Ding, the radishes are ripe. Please collect them as soon as possible.”

The Space Farm’s notification woke Zhao Hai up again. He sat up and immediately entered the Space Farm. The radishes had already ripened and the corn had also grown to the height of a person. The ears of corn on them had already taken shape. At this moment, he could break them off and cook them.

Zhao Hai was still counting on these corn to be seeds. It did not matter if he broke a few of them now, but when these corn matured, he could use them as seeds to plant across a wide area of land.

Zhao Hai immediately put away the radish and bought a bag of radish seeds from the shop which he planted again.

Only then did Zhao Hai run to the cornfield and carefully look at the corn. The corn was growing very well. The corn cobs were covered in husks. They could be collected when they were ripe.

Zhao Hai nodded in satisfaction and left the Space Farm. He returned to his room and looked out the window. The sky was already slightly bright. Zhao Hai was no longer sleepy. He opened the door and walked out.

The space outside was quite good. Although the castle was on a desolate mountain, the mountain and river made it a scene of tranquility. In addition, it was April. It was still a little cold in the morning. After breathing in the slightly cold air, Zhao Hai could not help but feel rejuvenated.

Zhao Hai thought about how his body did not seem to be in good condition. Adam was a profligate son who was ignorant and incompetent. In addition, he was greedy and lustful. His body had long been tortured from the energy overuse. In addition, he had drunk the Void Water, which made his body even weaker.

Zhao Hai did not want to become a sickly child. In addition, the weather was so good. Zhao Hai decided to run and train his body. Even if he could not become an expert, he had to at least become a healthy person.

After running for a while, the slaves got up one after another. They looked at Zhao Hai, who was running in the castle, in surprise, not knowing what he was doing.

Zhao Hai’s body was really too weak. He was already panting from exhaustion after running for a while. He had no choice but to stop and slowly adjust his breathing as he returned to the castle.

Although he had only run for a while, he still felt refreshed and much more energetic. When Zhao Hai returned to the castle, Merlyn and the others were already awake. However, they did not expect Zhao Hai to wake up so early. They thought that Zhao Hai was still sleeping in his room. When they saw Zhao Hai enter, they were very surprised.

Zhao Hai greeted them and washed his face before sitting in the living room and waiting for Merlyn to make breakfast.
