115. The Farming Methods of the Super-Rich

A beautifully prepared table.

The siblings in front of him swallowed their saliva without realizing it.

‘What… what is this?’

An unusual smell.

Even though the two of them do not have a strong appetite, their gaze naturally turned to the prize.

I had even forgotten that I had just discovered some unidentified creature under the bed.

It looked like an ordinary meal, but their hearts were racing.

The menu itself is nothing special.

But it wasn’t the usual dull color, but rather it was a table that seemed strangely full of life.

They took a spoon in their hands and tasted the food, and were dazzled.

“… oh my god.”

A shock so great that it made their eyes flash struck their heads and passed through them.

Unlike Oh Hyeon-seong, who had vague memories of it from his childhood, the taste of ‘real food’ was something they had never experienced before, as they were younger.

They were instantly captivated by the intense shock.

“Eat… slowly.”

The siblings started to inhale absentmindedly.

All that could be heard was the sound of clinking bowls, and when the rice bowl was half empty, Eun-ha Yoo raised her head and looked at Hyun-seong Oh.

“You are so delicious!”

“… Oh, really? That’s fortunate.”

“What’s going on? How can it be so delicious?”

You can tell the difference just by taking a spoonful of rice without any side dishes.

It’s not a taste that you can just pass over as being delicious, but a taste that completely defies common sense.

“These are side dishes made from crops I grew myself.”

“The house in front of the house? But I can’t raise everything here…”

Eunha Yoo said, looking at the lavishly laid table.

As expected from a table set by Oh Hyun-seong, there were a variety of side dishes, including soup and stew.

The greenhouse where Oh Hyeon-seong grew strawberries was expanded and the number of crops increased, but it was not enough to cover all the side dishes there.

‘But that doesn’t mean that only some of them used such materials…’

Crunchy!

Eunha Yoo ate a piece of sour and crunchy kimchi.

It had a refreshing taste that was completely different from the cheap, factory-made, synthetic kimchi that is spicy and leaves a gritty taste in the mouth no matter what you eat it with.

This isn’t just one kimchi.

Perilla leaf pickle, tofu, braised fish cake, and even common side dishes.

Sniff sniff.

Every time I eat one, tears well up in my eyes.

“Yeah, listen while you eat, while you eat.”

Oh Hyun-seong sat in front and told them a story.

From the fact that the crops he grows taste like the foods of the past before the gate was built,

How could farming like this be possible now that the soil is completely polluted by turbid air?

Where is the place where real farming is done, not a house made for illusory purposes?

Since the presence of spirits could not be left out there, they also told them about the spirits they had just witnessed.

“That, that…”

“Then, could it be that the strawberries that caused a fuss at Hankyung Department Store…?”

“That’s right, those are the strawberries from the illusion house. They’re a minor version that’s been intentionally made less flavorful, so there’s a difference.”

The siblings’ mouths dropped open in surprise at his words.

They were surprised when they found out that he was a hunter, but they didn’t know that something even more surprising would happen.

“… what’s the matter?”

“No, it’s just… I’m a little embarrassed by the lunch boxes I’ve packed so far.”

Eunha Yoo said, her face slightly red.

He came over to visit me, cooking and packing a lunch box for me because I thought it was good for him who was used to eating this kind of food.

Although it was a lunch box she had packed out of kindness, she felt embarrassed when she thought of the other person forcing themselves to eat tasteless food.

You can tell just by looking at her voice, which is unusual for her, that it’s creeping.

“No, I liked it.”

Oh Hyun-seong said to her.

Of course, if you objectively evaluate only the taste, you will never give it a high rating.

What can I do?

It’s not a problem with the individual’s cooking skills, but the ingredients themselves are not tasty.

But Oh Hyun-seong truly thought that her lunchbox was edible.

It’s not because of my cooking skills.

Because it was different from the cold, dull, cheap food I used to eat in the city, and the warm lunchbox she packed with care.

For Oh Hyeon-seong, who had been stuffing his mouth with combat rations to survive since entering the training camp, this was the first time he had received a lunchbox like this.

We ate lunch together without any coercion or patience.

“It’s shameless, but I’ll ask you to do this often in the future. A quiet and secluded life is nice, but sometimes I feel lonely eating alone.”

“Well… well! Feel free to leave it to me! I’m right next door, so you won’t be lonely! What’s better than having a neighbor?”

“It’s already noisy, so there’s no need to worry about that.”

They sat together and burst into laughter.

The fact that he, who had never lived in the countryside, was able to settle down in Changyeong-ri without any major problems was largely due to Kwon Kyung-min, who helped him find a house and introduced him to people in various ways.

The contribution of the siblings who readily approached me right next to me was equally great.

What he was trying to protect was not just the spatial aspect of the village called Changyeong-ri.

The neighbors who live inside.

They all felt that Oh Hyeon-seong had become their hometown that they had to protect.

Sararak.

The pure white thin curtains flutter in the pleasant breeze.

Oh Hyeon-seong sitting near the window and reading a book.

It was a must-read foreign liberal arts book that I have been trying out recently.

At first, when I encountered the sentences packed tightly together, I felt bored, but as I looked at them, I realized that sometimes it wasn’t bad to look at them in such a refined way.

It has a certain taste that makes you savor it, and I would say it satisfies your intellectual vanity.

“…Shall we do something while we eat?”

Oh Hyeon-seong, who had put his book down for a moment, stood up from his seat.

As I was reading, something sweet caught my attention, so I rummaged through the kitchen cupboards and refrigerator.

Although his house was always overflowing with food, he was deeply troubled over what to eat as a light snack.

“hmm?”

At that moment, Oh Hyeon-seong’s head suddenly turned back.

It’s because of the faint sound of a car outside the house.

It’s a sound that feels heavy, not like that of an ordinary car.

“Oh, you’re here.”

Oh Hyun-seong closed the cupboard door and left the house.

After putting on his shoes, he opened the front door and went outside. Just then, a truck stopped with a thumping sound in front of him.

The man who opened the driver’s seat and quickly came out bowed his head toward him.

“How have you been?”

“Thank you for coming.”

Gilsang Lee, who brought a truck.

He was currently in control of the underworld of Korea and was called the king of the underworld, but he personally brought the truck to a place like this without even a single subordinate.

It was because of one directive that Oh Hyeon-seong gave directly.

“Then I will open it right away.”

“okay.”

Squeak!

Lee Gil-sang quickly went to the back of the vehicle and opened the truck’s container.

Then Oh Hyun-seong could see the numerous items packed inside, and when he climbed inside the container, he could see it in more detail.

An interior filled with a lot of junk and oddly shaped weapons.

It looked like an antique dealer, but everything here was not material from Earth, but rather ‘artifacts’.

“I’ve swept up all the relics currently floating around on the black market. As you said, I’ve excluded all the ones that are below standard.”

“So everything here is a level 2 artifact or higher? You must have scraped a lot of them.”

Oh Hyun-seong nodded and said.

The instructions he gave to Lee Gil-sang.

The order was to sweep up as many artifacts as possible from the black market, and as you can see from the piles here, they have carried out that role very well.

“My heart was pounding as I loaded these precious items onto an old truck without any transport.”

“If you bring a flashy car to a rural area like this, it’ll stand out more, and if there are cars in front and behind it to protect it, it’ll stand out even more. Okay, let’s move for now.”

Oh Hyeon-seong and Lee Gil-sang moved a truck full of artifacts to a warehouse in the yard.

Although there were a lot of them, it only took a little while, and since we were both awakened, we were able to move them all without much difficulty.

“If it’s just relics, they’re all of a different kind, so what do you plan on doing with all these?”

“Um… just for personal use.”

Oh Hyun-seong shrugged his shoulders.

I recently received a lot of money from my business, so I used the money to pay a small advance and go shopping.

However, Lee Gil-sang, who had no idea why he was collecting the relics, could only guess by racking his brain.

‘Oh… As expected. You’re plotting something grand.’

There’s no way I’d be using this many relics all by myself.

Gil Sang Lee, who firmly believed that Oh Hyun Sung was a huge dark force controlling the Republic of Korea from behind the scenes, guessed that a national overthrow or a large-scale war could come.

Feeling his heart pounding, Lee Gil-sang was once again satisfied with his choice to go under him.

Of course, it was just an absurd misunderstanding that only he had.

“Then I will go now!”

“Okay, let’s grab a meal next time.”

Oh Hyun-seong sent Lee Gil-sang back.

Lee Gil-sang was also quite busy, so he couldn’t leave his seat for long.

Even though he was put in the position of the CEO, he was actually in a position to manage a huge, integrated organization, so he was not in a position to be taken lightly.

“Then shall we begin?”

Oh Hyun-seong headed to the storage room inside the house.

Then he took out a cubic artifact, a cube, from the storage box.

As he poured his magic power into it to start it up, a brilliant light came out of the cube, and Oh Hyun-seong carefully carried it out into the yard.

Then, from the storage room in the yard, he took out a small dagger that felt like a second-class relic, and from the field, he took a greatsword stuck between the cabbages.

‘All the preparations are ready.’

A cube in the center, with a dagger and a greatsword on either side.

The reason Oh Hyeon-seong spent a huge amount of money to collect the relics was precisely because of this work.

This national treasure-level relic, a cube, obtained at the Seoul Station site had the ability to replicate relics.

In order to use that ability, two things were needed: an original artifact and a material artifact.

Phaaaat!

As I activated the cube, an intense blue light shot out that completely obscured my vision, and the two figures disappeared into the light.

And then, after a while, the light faded and there was only one kind of weapon left.

The national treasure weapon of earth attribute, Theranos.

Two identical greatswords placed side by side.

“… It really worked out.”

A hollow laugh escaped Oh Hyeon-seong.

Of course, since it used 2nd class relics as materials, it ended up being a deteriorated version of a much lower class.

However, the replica was a true relic that possessed the greatsword’s abilities, and this alone was a tremendous feat.

Since it was a clone of Theranos that had clearly improved the soil by absorbing the energy of Melts, it also means that this clone can become an agricultural artifact that can make the soil fertile.

“Okay, then we can get started for real.”

Oh Hyeon-seong, who had been examining the condition of the relic, got up from his seat.

National treasure, Theranos.

No more, no less, just make about 100 of them for testing.
