If I Can Farm, Why Get a Job?

Song Mingzhu dies from overwork and wakes up in a parallel world where the soil has gone bad, plants and animals have mutated, and food tastes abnormally awful. She's also bound to a management System.

[Ding! The land is fallow. Please sow some seeds!]

[Plant scallions task: Reward of 200,000 yuan, Affinity +10.]

Song Mingzhu: !!!

Who needs a job? She's going to farm!

Song Mingzhu opens a countryside inn on the edge of the primeval forest in her hometown and starts playing a business management game.

Then she discovers the plants in the forest are completely different from those outside.

Shy vines help her drag a plow, and tiny sprouts pop out of the ground and grow into giant sweet potatoes overnight.

[Ding! Sweet potato planting task complete. Reward issued!]

Roast a sweet potato in the oven and it oozes with syrup. Sweet potato noodles are savory, fragrant, sour, spicy, and smooth, enough to make your mouth water.

With her beautiful white cat, she fences off a fish pond, raises fish, grows lotus roots, and goes into the mountains to pick mushrooms.

Word has it there's a countryside inn in Qingshui Town where the vegetables and fruit are crisp, sweet, and juicy. The livestock and poultry are so delicious that tossing them into a pot and stewing them is enough to make your mouth water.

Plenty of tourists and suppliers come from far and wide.

The System keeps handing out rewards, and Song Mingzhu is busy and happy.

Then the handsome young man who is the white cat in human form finally loses his patience and snaps, "You haven't gone mushroom-picking with me in ages!"

Without even looking up, Song Mingzhu placates him with practiced ease. "Be good. I'll go with you when I'm done."

The young man freezes as he glares at her, then turns his face away. "Don't think you can get away with it just by acting cute."

Song Mingzhu: ...?

He snorts. "I'll wait two more days, tops."
