I'm an Aristocrat, but I've Started a Farming System

The green wheat seedlings are growing beautifully and swaying in the wind.

Lin En and many serfs stood on the edge of the field, looking at the large farmland in front of them.

Old Tom said: Lord, it's really strange to say that the seeds are all planted together. I don't know why some crops grow very fast. Look over there.

He pointed to the land in front of him. The wheat seedlings in that area were generally taller than the surrounding wheat seedlings, and the wheat stalks were also thicker. This puzzled the serfs.

Lin En was not surprised. These wheat seedlings were grown from high-quality wheat seeds rewarded by the system, and naturally grew better than the ordinary seeds here.

In the future, these wheat harvests will be used exclusively for the next breeding. After a few times, large-scale planting can be carried out.

Lin En's eyes were on the Sunset Forest, where Rafe and the two entered, not knowing why.

He thought for a moment and said, It rained heavily two days ago. Have the arrowhead mushrooms been affected?

There was some impact. I saw part of the ground being washed away, and some arrowhead mushrooms were washed out. Old Tom answered.

Linn frowned, Go and have a look.

The group came to the place where arrowhead mushrooms are produced. The dry trees were still there. Some arrowhead mushrooms were beaten by the rain and cracked. Linn asked the serfs to break open and rush out, and picked the larger arrowhead mushrooms.

He looked around and let little Tom take him to the place where he had lost him yesterday.

This place is not far from the arrowhead mushroom production area. The serfs have also been here before when they were exploring the production area.

Little Tom whispered: Sir, I saw a lot of bright things here, which were very beautiful, and then I don't know where they went.

He was a little embarrassed. If his attention was not diverted, he would definitely be able to follow.

Lin En shook his head, It's okay, don't worry about it, just don't do this next time.

After becoming a knight, his eyesight and ears have been improved, and Linn is carefully surveying the surrounding environment.

According to Little Tom, Rafe must have encountered some problem when he suddenly went out in the middle of the night, so it would be impossible for him to cover up his traces.

Lin En narrowed his eyes and found a footprint. Looking at the series of footprints in front of him, he knew that this was where the two of them were going.

He asked little Tom to go back and he chose to follow the footsteps and keep going forward.

After walking almost a hundred meters, Linn heard the sound of running water. He walked through a large bush and came to a river. The water was clear and there were some unknown fish living in it.

The river is not wide, about two or three meters, and the water is no deeper than the calf. There are stones and leaves under the water.

The footprints stopped abruptly here. There were no footprints on the other side of the river, which made Linn feel strange.

The panel in front of him changed.

Task 4: Mayor Rafe seems to be hiding some secrets. Find and break them. The first stage will reward clean mountain spring water. (Completed)

The task disappears and lines of words appear.

Task 4 (2): The mayor goes deep into the forest in the middle of the night. What is his purpose? There seems to be a huge secret in it. Find it and decipher it. The second stage will reward iron ore.

The moment he saw the mission reward, the expression on Linn's face changed.

This is an iron ore, which means that the reward will be a mine, not a piece of iron ore. The meaning of this is quite terrifying.

Iron ore is a very important strategic material for any lord or noble. As long as you master a mine, you can dig out a large amount of ore from it.

As for iron ore, it can be used to make agricultural tools, weapons, armor, etc., covering all aspects.

What's more, each mining area does not only have one kind of ore, but also has associated ores. No matter what they are or how much they are, they can provide the lord with a lot of income.

Not only does Ember Town lack iron ore, but the territory of Linn's father, the Earl, also lacks iron ore. This kind of resource is not disliked by the nobles, but is only felt to be scarce.

Linn's eyes changed. He looked at the river and wondered where Rafe and the others had gone and why the reward was an iron mine.

At present, he also roughly understands what the rewards of system tasks are composed of. Some tasks directly issue rewards, and some guide you to obtain rewards. As for illusory rewards such as increasing happiness, they are not included. .

Iron ore does not appear out of thin air, so that means the task is to guide Linn to find the iron ore.

This made Linn even more puzzled. Rafe must have known where the iron ore was, so why he didn't mine it. If he discovered a resource like iron ore, the Earl would definitely reward him, and maybe even give him a noble status.

After all, iron ore is too important to sell privately. Unless you are a noble lord, ordinary merchants will not dare to buy it. Raf is just a free citizen. Even if he has the means to sell iron ore, he can only sell a few yuan or dozens of yuan at most. He wants to sell it slowly and steadily. If things continue like this, it will still attract the attention of interested people.

Without reporting, without mining, without becoming a noble, without earning gold coins, what is Rafe’s purpose?

Unless there is something more precious than iron ore in it.

What could Linn be thinking about?

Master, why are you here? Karis's anxious voice came from behind.

After hearing what Little Tom said, he immediately led the serfs to chase him. This was the Sunset Forest. What if he encountered a monster.

Come and have a look. I didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest. You see, the water in the river is clear. There are some fish in it. You can catch them and make soup. In addition, send people over regularly to take a look and explore more around. There are rivers There are wild beasts in this place, if you find one, go to the castle and tell me immediately, Linn said.

One more thing, if possible, you can follow the river upstream and downstream to have a look. The river downstream is wider and the fish resources are more abundant. If you can catch enough fish, you don't have to worry about food problems.

The serfs nodded one after another. Although they were a little afraid of the unknown forest, the adults said so, so they could only explore as much as possible.

Under the leadership of Old Tom, they entered the river and caught a lot of small fish in a short time. They were not big, only one finger long, and the only few big fish were about the size of a palm.

Sir, please come and take a look. Old Tom ran over and said to Linn.

Linn immediately followed Old Tom downstream. At first, the river was only two or three meters wide, but gradually it became wider.

Four to five meters, six to seven meters, and the depth continued to increase until the bottom of the river could no longer be seen clearly.

Due to the terrain ahead, the river water converged into a huge lake.
