Farming Games are All About Grinding-Chapter 582 - 569: Iridium Ring! Osmanthus Honey!
After arriving home, Tang Qingying placed the golden little carp into the Hospital River.
The golden little carp was quite savvy, as it quickly swam over to the side of the golden carp and began voraciously devouring water plants.
"Eat well, and try to produce more money," Han Qiwu cheerfully encouraged, then moved aside to plant the Mist Sunflower seeds he had obtained today.
The Mist Sunflowers planted a few days ago had already sprouted tender green shoots, looking incredibly pleasing.
While Han Qiwu was busy planting Mist Sunflowers, Tang Qingying didn't idle either. She led Little Cai to the stable and fed it with a fresh heap of hay she had specially prepared.
"Eat up, eat up, grow up quickly, so you can take me gliding a few more times."
"Neigh-neigh," Little Cai responded while munching on the hay, nodding to indicate it was no problem.
After finishing the household chores, the two were completely tuckered out. After a quick tidying-up, they both entered dreamland together.

"Moo-moo-moo"
The sound of a calf's moo heralded a new morning in the yard.
"Morning, wake up and have breakfast!"
The moment Han Qiwu opened his eyes, he saw Tang Qingying standing nearby with a proud smile on her face, while an enticing aroma of milk and eggs wafted over from the dining table.
Beer wasn't ready yet.
"You're up this early?" Han Qiwu asked while getting out of bed. "Thanks for the effort."
"No trouble, no trouble, I just boiled some milk and eggs," Tang Qingying waved her hand, laughing. "I've been feeling very refreshed lately, even after sleeping just a few hours."
"That's true. But I think it's probably related to the food here. The energy in these foods seems a lot purer, making it easier for the body to absorb," Han Qiwu quickly washed up, eating as he pulled up the daily log to review.
Whoa, historical income is about to reach one million!
What kind of rewards might it give?
The thought was a little exciting.
Plus, the combat skill leveled up too.
Grinding monsters really speeds up leveling.
[Iridium Ring]
[Materials: [Iridium Bar]×10, [Sunlight Essence]×30, [Earth Essence]×30]
[Effect: Combines the enhanced effects of Magnet Ring, Shield Ring, and Light Ring, while increasing attack power by 20%]
[Notes: Work hard to wear it!]
Wow, items made with iridium really are something else.
These effects are just too fierce!
One ring is better than three!
Gotta grind hard and craft one as soon as possible!
Well, there's already Iridium Bars at home, and the Sunlight Essence is something he had seen before in the Polluted Land, priced at 100 points each. But where on earth would he find Earth Essence?
After conveying all this information to Tang Qingying, she chuckled and lightly knocked his forehead, saying, "Why so silly? Earth Essence must be underground. Why not just go mining today?"
Han Qiwu suddenly came to realization, scratched his head awkwardly, laughed sheepishly, and went off to chop trees in the yard.
Meanwhile, the stable in the yard had also been upgraded, transforming from a cramped single-horse stable into a roomy double-horse stable. Han Qiwu went over, called out the little pony that hadn't come home, led it inside the stable, and left it alone.
In the world of animals, humans better leave things to them.
Just after finishing that, he suddenly noticed that the tree root which had previously held the Mist Butterfly Queen egg was gone, along with the surrounding mist.
"Whoosh!"
Right at that moment, a Mist Butterfly Queen with vibrant wings gracefully glided down from a nearby cassia tree, leaving behind a Mist Butterfly egg at the spot she appeared.
"Finally hatched! Now the household's wood reserves are going to be even richer," Han Qiwu nodded in satisfaction and casually chopped down a few mature cassia trees.
After completing these tasks, he walked into the house and casually tapped the TV.

[Notes: Don't worry about causing heat issues]
Just like Han Qiwu, Tang Qingying could also see the TV content.
As one line after another flashed across the screen, she sweetly bowed to the TV and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Shennong!"
Han Qiwu chuckled.
Grandpa Shennong speaks a bit too bluntly.
What do you mean by contributing to humanity's continuation?
It should be called the fruits of love.
Still, learning a new recipe is nice, and it seems particularly suitable for Mr. Tang. Once they've collected enough osmanthus, they should try making it.
The information in the life tips was equally useful. The two glanced at each other and immediately understood without having to say a word.
Han Qiwu would go mining, while Tang Qingying would study genetic editing.
Division of labor to improve efficiency.
But before splitting up, Han Qiwu rode his little electric scooter, taking Tang Qingying to the merchant's location first.
They needed to exchange jade for some staircases.
Today's goal was to descend a few more levels.
See if they could obtain Earth Essence.
Soon, they passed through the forest and arrived at the merchant's place.
Today, the merchant seemed to be in great spirits, smiling broadly, and the little pink piggy nearby wasn't lying down either—it was standing and wobbling beside him.
Upon seeing Han Qiwu, the merchant greeted proactively, "Oh, you're still coming as a pair, huh? Since it's your first meeting, I'll gift you thirty cotton seeds."
With that, the merchant pulled out a package from the side and handed it to Tang Qingying.
"Thank you," Tang Qingying replied with a smile, passing the package to Han Qiwu.
Han Qiwu: "?????"
"Bro, why didn't you gift me anything the first time we met? Did you forget? It's okay, you can give it now, and I won't mind," Han Qiwu joked as he put an arm around the merchant's shoulder.
"Well, I can only say your luck wasn't very good," the merchant said with exaggerated pity while shaking his head. He then handed the inventory list to Han Qiwu, saying, "Not much money here today? How many seeds are you planning to buy?"
"Hold on, I'll discuss with the wife." Han Qiwu snorted, turned, and started conferring with Tang Qingying. The funds indeed weren't much today, but the inventory didn't have anything too special either, so buying next time would be just fine.
After some thought, Tang Qingying said, "Our current task is to unlock genetic editing as much as possible. The yields of scallions, ginger, and cabbage aren't all that high, and their importance isn't as great as cotton. Let's just buy cotton seeds."
Han Qiwu agreed and, after some haggling, managed to spend 12,000 Gold Coins on 100 cotton seeds.
If it weren't for the initial gift of thirty seeds, Han Qiwu wouldn't have accepted just a 20% discount.
After buying the seeds, he exchanged fifty pieces of jade for fifty staircases.
Now they could have some real fun in the mines.
