Chapter 284: Being An Official Is Really Brain-Consuming

Although it was a communal meal, it would only be a waste of food if it was not cooked well. Hence, Chen Yong asked Xiaoxiao to do it without any hesitation.

The latter also agreed right away.

While taking care of the “wild boars” that had been cut into pieces, Ning Anhui held their hind elbows and narrowed his eyes. “Why doesn’t this look like a wild boar to me?”

Xiaoxiao didn’t stop and said softly, “You saw through it but didn’t expose it.

This is Lord Chen doing a good deed without leaving his name.”

Ning Anhui pondered for a while and sighed. “It’s really tiring to be an official. Fortunately, I don’t have that ability.

Xiaoxiao:… You sound quite proud?

There was nothing left after the two pigs were distributed to everyone. If they wanted a reasonable distribution, the method was very important.

There was no need to consider braised pork and stewed pork ribs which needed large pieces of meat. The meat had to be shaved as much as possible and then cut into minced meat and shredded meat. The bones could not be thrown away either. It would be made into a pot of meat soup with grease.

That day, the laborers showed unprecedented enthusiasm. Not only did they complete the day’s mission in advance, but they also took the initiative to work overtime. They were waiting for the place with the fragrance outside to shout-

“Alright, time to eat!”

The huge iron pot that was specially used for mass cooking was lifted. There were tender meatballs floating on the steaming soup inside. The meatballs were white and pink, and a few green leaves. They could be considered a combination of meat and vegetables.

“Everyone has a fishball and a meatbail. Line up and don’t snatch them.

Everyone has them.”

These “balls” were not small balls the size of a finger. The two balls filled the bowl. The bone soup had the umami taste of fish meat, so it was most suitable for dipping steamed buns. Some tender vegetable leaves were quite delicious after absorbing the soup and oil.

After eating their fill, they went to a more comfortable resting place after being perfected by the officials. They did not believe it themselves. They closed their eyes and opened them. They actually woke up naturally.

Their fatigue disappeared. They, who were full of energy, greatly increased the efficiency of repairing the dam.

That night, the heavy rain that hung in the air and in everyone’s hearts finally fell. Chen Yong looked at the spot where the water stopped, worried. He did not know when the water would suddenly rush down.

However, miraculously, the water level, which was originally expected to soar in 12 hours, was still stable in place 24 hours later. While everyone was glad, they worked overtime and worked hard.

As they rested well, their food was also improved. Everyone worked in an orderly manner and cooperated seamlessly. Soon, the cracks on the dam were repaired. It was also at this moment that the cut-off area was clearly about to withstand the water pressure. Although the Dusk River sounded unimpressive, it was actually a river hundreds of meters wide. If it overflowed, not to mention the dam that was only half repaired, even the surrounding hundreds of meters would suffer.

Chen Yong decisively ordered the retreat and opened the drainage channel. Everyone saw the surging river water rush out along the channel that had just been dug with an extremely shocking aura. It circled around them and continued to surge downstream.

The water current was so strong that everyone was speechless and their hearts raced. Everyone was worried about the coastal towns. Fortunately, someone came to report not long after. “Sir, thanks to those canals, the Dusk River was dispersed by the canals before it could break the dam. There were no serious consequences.”

Chen Yong’s heart, which was in his throat, returned to its original place. He instructed someone to set up the interception area again and continue construction.

At a spot that no one noticed, Xiaoxiao retracted her hand that was soaked in water and heaved a long sigh. She had just barely walked back to her residence when she fell.

She did not know how long she had slept for, but she vaguely heard a familiar electronic prompt: [Current total points are 132,200. Do you want to upgrade?] Relying on her instincts, Xiaoxiao said: [Yes.]

Her head was a little dizzy when she heard the space broadcast—

[Upgrade successful. Current space level: 10.]

[The time flow in the farmland has increased. The current speed is 10 times faster!]

[The time flow in the ranch has increased. The current speed is 10 times faster!]

[Time flow in the water has increased. Current speed is 10 times!] [Time Hut’s current adjustable speed is plus or minus 10 times!]

[Range Control ability upgraded!]

[The Space Exchange Mall category is updated.] [New function obtained: Spatial projection. The projection range is 10×10.] [You have received one brocade bag for the upgrade reward. Current total points are 32,200.]

[Master, do you want to open the brocade pouch?]

Xiaoxiao felt that she was too tired. After being tired for so many days, she also wanted to rest well, so she let herself fall into a deep sleep. Hence, she did not hear the space ask—

[Master, do you want to open the brocade pouch?]

[Master, do you want to open the brocade pouch?]

[The host has no answer. The space will automatically make a choice in three seconds. 3, 2,1. The brocade pouch has been activated and you have received an interim space reward. Please choose the reward content-]

[One, 1×1 farmland speed multiplied by 10.]

[Two, 1×1 ranch speed times 10.]

[Three, lxi water speed multiplied by 10.]

[Four, Hidden reward.]

[The host has no answer. The space will make a choice in three seconds. 3, 2,1, it has automatically chosen to upgrade the farmland’s speed. The current speed of the special farmland is too times faster.]

Xiaoxiao felt that she might have used too much space to cause her brain to be tired. To explain it in fantasy terms, this was probably called overdrawing her mental strength. However, the strange thing was that while she was asleep… or rather, unconscious, she felt herself floating in the space.

Then, she saw the full view of the space in the air. She also saw the four options that suddenly floated in the void when the space gave the choice. She understood after reading the first three, but what floated at the fourth option was a semi-intangible door.

When she woke up, her mother and Second Brother were guarding her window with worried expressions. They heaved a sigh of relief when they saw her open her eyes. Madam Song’s tears fell. “You scared me to death.” As she spoke, she hugged her tightly.

Although Second Brother did not say anything, his eyes were red.

Xiaoxiao smiled and pulled Second Brother’s sleeve. “I’m fine. I’m just a little sleepy, so I accidentally slept a little longer.”

Second Brother’s eyes were filled with resentment, but he did not say anything. Hence, Xiaoxiao only knew that she had slept for an entire day and night after eating and drinking her fill.

However, after waking up, she clearly felt that she was full of energy, ears, and eyes. Even her eyesight seemed to be much better.

Wait it didn’t “seem” to be. Xiaoxiao realized that she could even see the butterflies flying over 10 meters away clearly. She calmed down and listened. The footsteps of the pedestrians passing by outside were especially clear. What was going on?

The space was also waiting for her to wake up: [Master, Master, I’ve broken through and leveled up! I’m Level-Ten now. As my master, you will also undergo a rebirth!]

Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and asked: [Will I grow taller? Will I become prettier?]

The space was a little unhappy.. [Yes… but Master, it’s not just your appearance… I’ll be very capable and useful…]
