001, Orange 19: Chapter 19: ID Card Resident No.
001, Orange With a cat head covering on her head, Shiki quickly arrived at the Mines lake in the northern mountains.
Novices often make a big mistake by liking to fish at the Seaside in the early stages because the fishing rod is received at the Seaside, so they habitually start fishing there.
However, in reality, sea fish are much harder to catch than lake fish, and most sea fish are not as valuable as lake fish.
There are some very valuable fish in the sea, worth one or two hundred each, but they are very difficult to catch.
For novices with short fishing rods early on, this is very unfriendly.
Lake fish are much better.
The Carp that requires no movement throughout the process, and the Largemouth Bass worth 100 just by casually casting, completely surpasses fishing at the Seaside in terms of cost-effectiveness.
Eating a skewer of roasted mushrooms, my fate is determined by me, not by heaven!
Shiki, who used stamina to fish, turned into a ruthless fishing machine.
There was no need to worry about bait, nor worry about the bamboo fishing rod breaking.
Whatever you have to say, say it to the rules of this world.
As long as stamina is used, this fishing rod won’t break even if Yukari is pulling it!
“Meow!” Feeling the vibration of the fishing rod in her hand, Shiki gave a big pull, hooking a Carp into mid-air.
Orange, who was sunbathing above Shiki’s head, meowed, leaped up, caught the Carp in mid-air, flipped over, landed, and put the fish into the box.
Perfect coordination.
“Well done, Cat Cat…” “Shiki is also amazing, meow.” High-fiving Cat Cat’s Pink Paw Pads, Shiki continued casting and reeling, the human and cat working together flawlessly.
From a distance, the few people who came out for a walk after finishing their mushrooms watched the interaction between the person and the cat from afar, all showing fond smiles.
Anyone who could get along with Orange couldn’t be a bad person.
20 fish disappeared in an instant.
It only took a few hours for Shiki to complete the unlock quest required to invite Chen Cat.
“Cat Cat, I solemnly invite you to play in Stardew Valley now.
Do you agree?” Placing Orange on the box containing 20 fish, Shiki sincerely invited Orange to join Stardew Valley as if proposing marriage.
“I do, meow!” Orange, in her black cat form, held her head high and responded to Shiki’s invitation.
A card resembling an ID Card appeared in front of Orange.
After Orange placed her paw on it, the card erupted in light, displaying Orange’s identity information and a cute cat paw print.
Stardew Valley Resident No.
001 Name: Orange Residence: None yet Also unlocked was the phone duplication function, which was free.
Shiki could duplicate countless phones, and these phones had the same functions as the one in Yukari’s hand: they could contact Shiki, browse Shiki’s shop, post commissions, and accept commissions.
“Congratulations, Orange.” “As the first resident of Stardew Valley, you can choose any house to live in.
If you want to build your own, that’s also possible.
You can look at the map to see where you want to live.” Handing Orange a phone with a crimson cat paw design on the back, Shiki then manually taught her how to bring up the map.
“Meow, I can’t understand.
What are all these things?” She was just a cute cat, why should she look at these 3D models?
While Orange was concentrating on the map, four heads grew behind the cat.
“Orange chooses this one.” Yukari’s slender finger pointed to the most luxurious building.
Youkai were not shy; they didn’t have the cultural dross of showing deference to the elderly just because they were virtuous.
Whoever has the bigger fist is right.
Never mind pointing a fish head at someone; as long as you can beat others into submission, no one will object even if you stuff a fish head in your mouth.
Shiki also took a look.
The most luxurious house Yukari mentioned was the Mayor’s house in the game; it was indeed the most magnificent.
“Shiki, is that okay?” Orange looked up at Shiki.
In reality, she only needed a space large enough for her little nest.
Cats are easy to care for; they don’t need such a big house.
“Of course, you’re Stardew Valley Resident No.
001, you can choose anywhere you like.
Let’s go look at the house.” The group walked down the southern path, passed the Community Center, and arrived in the town.
“These empty rooms in the town are prepared for future residents.
Every building has a unique responsibility.
Once you choose a house, you must fulfill the corresponding duty, or you will be expelled.
The house you chose is the most luxurious in the entire town, and its responsibility is to manage the town.” “The main responsibility is to manage the town’s residents, ensure harmony and friendship among them, and hold periodic events to enrich everyone’s lives.” Shiki led the way while introducing the houses along the road.
The houses here all had special functions; you couldn’t just move in and slack off.
You always had to create some value for Stardew Valley.
“The white building is the hospital.
If you live there, you need to be responsible for treating the town’s residents.” “The building next to the hospital is the Produce Shop, whose duty is to satisfy everyone’s daily shopping needs.” “That one over there is the Bar.
The two next to each other are for Textiles and Greenery Maintenance.
The one by the fishing lake is the Carpenter.
The one across the lake is the Apothecary.
Across the town river, there is also a Blacksmith, a Museum, and more.
These places aren’t just for people to live in for free.” Arriving in front of the Mayor’s house, after Orange confirmed her choice, the originally blank nameplate now displayed ‘Orange’s House’.
“You can change the nameplate to your liking.
The map on your phone will display the latest name in real-time.
At the same time, you can see two avatars on the map now: one is you, and the other is me.
Everyone’s location is shared completely.
If you want to find someone, just look at the map.” Pushing open the door, everyone fell silent.
The house that looked as luxurious outside as the Scarlet Devil Mansion turned out to be completely empty inside—just a bare shell.
The contrast was too great.
“Is it convenient for people from Kappa Heavy Industries to come over?
Although they are a bit tricky and their prices are steep, their technology is still quite good.” Yukari took a deep breath.
She thought it would be move-in ready, but just like when she first arrived at the Wizards Tower, the sofas and other furniture Shiki saw were things she moved out of a Gap just to create an aura of mystery for Shiki.
“It might be troublesome.
I need to complete unlock conditions before I can invite people.
Orange’s task was to catch 20 fish.
If I don’t invite them, unless I’m constantly watching or touching everything, they won’t be able to start work.” Shiki spread her hands.
Among the list of unlock conditions where the avatars were question marks, she could roughly guess who the few obvious ones belonged to based on personal characteristics, but she didn’t know about the rest.
“There is one solution: let me see the person, and then I will know what their unlock condition is.” “I’m very curious what our unlock conditions are.” Marisa had already woken up from her mushroom haze.
She was a bit curious about her own unlock condition.
If it was simple, she would also like to come here to play.
That Apothecary clearly seemed prepared for her, and she wanted to try making potions here to see what the difference would be.
