Qin Lin was very surprised by the sudden visit of the dwarf Ani.
This guy always gives him an unexpected surprise every time he comes.
Whether it’s the albino yellow tiger at the beginning or the kola nut at the back.
Moreover, when he saw the dwarf Ani asking about recruitment, he probably thought of something, and immediately controlled the game character and clicked on the dwarf Ani.
The conversation comes up again.
[...My companions have settled down in the houses in Ore Town, but now they plan to find a job to support themselves, but they have not been able to find a job. Can you help them? I will thank you very much! 】
Sure enough, it's a plot about finding a job with a dwarf.
Harvest Story is a casual farming game.
At the beginning, players will find it interesting to grow vegetables and breed animals such as horses, chickens, and cows.
But as the game progresses, more and more land opens up, and more and more animals are raised. It takes a lot of time to collect vegetables, eggs, and milk.
If this is repeated too much, it will become annoying over time.
After all, players still want to develop new gameplay and experience new plots, and they don’t want to waste time on this kind of thing.
So, the dwarfs show up.
There are 7 dwarfs in Ore Town, wearing clothes of 7 different colors, named Shifni, Nabi, Gulidi, Dimit, Aqua, Shekak, and Bordeaux.
In both versions of the Ranch Story game, players can invite them to work on the ranch and leave the tedious daily tasks to them, allowing players to discover new ways to play.
In the old version of the game, to ask a dwarf to work, you had to give him a gift and reach a certain favorability level. In this new version, it has obviously become a plot mission.
Qin Lin was controlling the game character to take on the task of the dwarf Arnie, when Zhao Moqing's voice rang out: "Qin Lin, why are you so dazed?"
Qin Lin finally recovered from the game, turned off the car and got out of the car.
Zhao Moqing also walked out of the passenger seat holding the white fox Xiaoxue.
Lin Fen got out of the back seat, and Wangcai also ran out of the car, with the squeaking red fur sitting on its back.
After Qin Lin got out of the car, he opened the trunk and took out all the ingredients inside.
Qin Ren also stepped forward immediately and helped take the dishes out of the trunk.
He knew that Qin Lin had brought a lot of vegetables, so he didn't bring any.
With Qin Lin’s dishes, who would eat food bought from outside?
Naturally, Qin Lin would not skimp on some dishes.
The two families had a party together last year, and they stayed together again this year. He was fully responsible for the dishes, which were all quality 2 ingredients specially taken from the game.
Seeing this, Qin Shuigen and his wife also stepped forward to help. After bringing in all the ingredients, Qin Shuigen, his wife and Lin Fen also began to prepare some sacrifices. Ducks and pork had to be boiled half-cooked on one side.
Qin Qinren and Qin Lin were arranged to decorate their old houses and put up Spring Festival couplets.
After finishing all the work and reaching the end, Qin Lin only had time to look at the game of light screen in his mind again.
The game character still maintains the dialogue mode with the dwarf Arnie.
Qin Lin controlled the game character to take over the task of dwarf Ani.
[Great, my companions are in the dwarf hut in Ore Town, please go and invite them to work! I will give you a gift as a thank you when the time comes! 】
After saying that, the dwarf Arnie quickly left the ranch.
Qin Lin looked at the game tasks, and also controlled the game character to leave the ranch, go to Ore Town, and soon found the dwarf's cabin.
Entering the hut, seven slightly cute dwarfs with pointed ears were still playing and doing their own thing inside.
Because he accepted the mission from the dwarf Ani, the game character can trigger a dialogue when he walks in front of the child.
【Do you want to hire me? Then can you find me some delicious food first? I’m craving sweet veggies! 】
Sure enough, you still have to give food to these dwarfs before you can invite them to work on the ranch.
Now he also roughly knows why these seven dwarfs can't find jobs.
You want to find a job, but your boss doesn't mind that you are short, so you ask your boss to give you food first.
Isn’t this a lack of B numbers?
Just like some confident graduates who have no work experience and ask for an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, what boss would want you?
Qin Lin tried the dwarfs one by one, and each dwarf wanted something different.
There are some things that the ranch can still have.
Some go to other shops in Ore Town to buy.
For the sake of the dwarf Arnie, Qin Lin decisively controlled the game character to go back to the ranch storage room and put the items in the ranch into his backpack, and then went to other shops in Ore Town to buy items that were not available in the ranch.
After doing all this, Qin Lin went to the residence of the seven dwarfs again, and then handed the things to them one by one.
[Great, this is my favorite vegetable. You have such delicious vegetables. Let me go to work at your place! 】
After giving some vegetables to a dwarf, the dwarf will have a conversation.
Qin Lin clicked to agree, and the next moment he saw the dwarf running out of the hut and heading to the pasture, followed by the next dwarf.
Sure enough, after each dwarf delivered something, they all left the dwarf hut one after another. Suddenly, the surroundings seemed empty.
Qin Lin controlled the game character to leave the cabin, and when he returned to the ranch, he saw seven dwarfs already wandering in the ranch.
Open the list again and see the operation interface for the dwarfs. The general operation is to arrange the dwarfs to water, weed, plant and harvest corresponding crops, and let the dwarfs raise the harvested products of pasture animals...
Anyway, the dwarfs can do all the work that the game characters can do on the ranch.
In other words, in the future, everything in the ranch can be handed over to the dwarf, and he can be a hands-off shopkeeper. He only needs to be responsible for fishing and looking at mountain products.
As for other things, you can just go to the storage room and get them when you want them. Instruct the dwarfs, and these dwarfs can do the job beautifully.
In other words, he can also be the master of most things in the game.
After controlling the game characters and arranging the work of the dwarfs, Qin Lin suddenly became interested when he looked at the dwarfs who were already busy.
He went directly into the toilet of the old house, and an idea entered the game.
As soon as he came in, he heard singing in his ears. A dwarf in red clothes with headphones was humming a song with an unknown tune. It was quite pleasant.
This little red dwarf seems to be called Chevne, and he is currently growing a level 3 fruit.
Now in reality, this dwarf is not as cute as the two-dimensional image, but has a more naive feeling.
Naturally, what remains unchanged is the clothes they wear and their short stature.
"Boss, what do you think of my fruit cultivation?" Chefnier saw Qin Lin and asked him as if he was offering a treasure.
Obviously, this is again because of the system.
Because Chevne knew the game character, he also knew him now.
"Well, good job!" Qin Lin walked up to Scheffnier, praised him, squatted down, and stretched his hand to his head.
There is nothing I can do, the dwarf is too short, I can't even touch his head.
Naturally, he was thinking about whether he could bring this dwarf into reality.
You must know that these are real dwarfs, not the pseudo-dwarfs with dwarfism in reality.
Although bringing real dwarfs to life and being discovered would surely cause a commotion, he still wanted to give it a try.
But as soon as the thought occurred, the system prompt sounded:
[The current creature is in an employment relationship and cannot be taken away! 】
"Boss, what's wrong?" Scheffnier looked at Qin Lin who was touching his head in confusion.
"It's okay, let's work!" Qin Lin smiled awkwardly. It seemed that there were limits.
He tried it with other dwarfs, and it was the same.
In the end, he could only quit the game, then looked at the game screen and waited for some time.
He was waiting for the dwarf Arnie, but he did not show up.
It stands to reason that he has recruited all the dwarfs to work in the ranch, and the plot mission of dwarf Arnie should be completed, but he did not see dwarf Arnie appear at all.
After waiting for a while, there was no sign of the dwarf Ani. Qin Lin also went back to the kitchen. He was responsible for cooking in the evening.
Everyone knew about his cooking skills, and there was no way he could get away with this kind of job.
When he arrived in the kitchen, Qin Lin saw Zhao Moqing and Lin Fen teasing Qin Ren's daughter.
The little baby seemed to be the protagonist, everyone gathered around her and made her laugh.
Seeing him coming, Qin Shuigen stepped forward and asked, "Xiaolin, what are you going to do tonight? Xiaoren and I will help you."
"Uncle Shui Gen, then you and Daren will help me wash the vegetables." Qin Lin also said with a smile.
In fact, there is nothing easy to do when cooking for several people. It’s just that during the Chinese New Year, what matters is the atmosphere.
Everyone works together, even if they can't help much, it's good to have that atmosphere.
For Qin Lin, cooking is also very simple. His current cooking skills include fish skills, crustacean skills, egg fried rice skills, and medicinal food cooking skills.
Coupled with the ingredients produced by the game, a table of delicious food is ready.
Qin Lin and Qin Shuigen were full of praise for the quality 3 fish and the 3 quality Xiangshui tribute rice and egg fried rice.
While Qin Ren was eating, he said in a very exaggerated tone: "Linzi, your cooking skills are really getting better and better."
Qin Shuigen was also full of admiration: "Lin Zi has been very smart since he was a child, and he learns everything quickly, unlike you who was spanked by me after I pulled out your pants."
"..." Qin Ren immediately looked bitter.
Why are you talking about the embarrassing things that happened when you were young?
After the meal, the two families chatted about their parents all night, and then went back to their rooms late at night.
"Xiao Lin, Xiao Ren's daughter is very cute. I'm so envious of Shui Gen for having such a cute granddaughter." Before Lin Fen returned to the room, she said this specifically to Qin Lin.
The meaning of these words seemed too obvious, making Qin Lin's face show a hint of embarrassment, and Zhao Moqing's pretty face also gained a hint of shyness.
Lin Fen went back to the room, and suddenly she walked out again, stared directly at the white fox Xiaoxue, Wangcai, and Chimao and shouted: "What are you doing here? Follow me back to the room."
With that said, she carried the white fox Xiaoxue into her room, and Wangcai was also led away. Chimao looked at the two companions and could only follow them.
The meaning seems more obvious.
Therefore, Qin Lin took Zhao Moqing back to the room. As soon as the door was closed, he pressed her against the door and said jokingly: "What did mom mean just now?"
"Bah, you're asking this knowingly." Zhao Moqing glared at Qin Lin, as long as he knew it, didn't he ask it on purpose just to embarrass her?
Qin Lin naturally knew what his mother meant, but he still teased Zhao Moqing: "What do you mean?"
Zhao Moqing answered the question incorrectly: "Liao Li and Qin Ren's daughter is really cute!"
When Qin Lin heard this, he understood. He leaned into Zhao Moqing's ear and said, "I understand, then I won't do any protection today."
"Hmph!" Zhao Moqing let out a sweet cry, and took the initiative to hug his neck with both hands. With a kick of her legs, she hung on him like a koala.
Soon after.
There was a creaking sound in the room.
The old furniture in the old house is always a little unstable, and there will be some strange sounds when it is moved.
But this sound seems to be a bad taste for some people, and even becomes the auxiliary music of some sports.
Qin Lin obviously has this bad taste.
…
the next day.
Qin Lin looked at Zhao Moqing with a smile on his face, and deliberately pressed his palm on the window edge and shook it, and there was a creaking sound.
After last night, the wooden boards of this old thing seemed to be even more unstable.
This made Zhao Moqing roll his eyes.
The two of them got up after a while, cleaned up and went to the kitchen.
Lin Fen and Qin Shuigen have already prepared breakfast. Elderly people always get up earlier.
After eating some breakfast, Qin Lin looked at the light screen in his mind again, because the dwarf Ani appeared again.
[We meet again. I have been observing in secret for a while. My companion seems to be very happy working on your ranch. So, in order to thank you, I plan to give you a gift. Open it and see for yourself! 】
As the dwarf Ani spoke, he threw a small bag to Qin Lin, and then disappeared without a trace in a puff of smoke.
There is another small gray bag in the game character's backpack.
Seeing this, Qin Lin immediately found a deserted place to enter the game, and then saw the bag. Inside the bag was a dark stone with some unknown runes on it.
At the same time, Qin Lin also saw the note information on this black stone:
[An unknown stone: unknown! 】
[This is a stone of unknown use. It seems to contain some information. It was picked up by the dwarf in the depths of the Virgin Mountain. You can go to Doctor Dot in Ore Town to have a look! 】
When Qin Lin saw this note, he subconsciously thought: As expected of you, Ani, this dwarf is as cheating as ever.
In the previous plot missions of the dwarf Ani, whether it was the red-haired or the white fox Xiaoxue, he was regarded as the taker by the other party. It was clearly something the other party wanted to get rid of, but it was actually given to him as a reward.
This time it went even further, and he even gave me a stone picked up from the Notre Dame Mountain.
However, looking at the note, it seems that this stone still has some effects, and it also reminds you to go to Dr. Dote, maybe you will get a surprise. (To be continued)
