These were all materials Meow-Da would use to craft Palico equipment during his time surviving in the wild.
But after being brought here, it could be said that they instantly filled many of the material categories Andrew was desperately lacking.
This wave of replenishment was truly a timely rain for Andrew, filling in many of the original gaps.
It was as if his life as a Hunter had been completed.
Andrew instantly felt his back stop aching and his legs stop hurting.
He could even breathe easier.
Unable to hide his joy, Andrew rubbed Meow-Da's head vigorously once again, and while scratching its chin, he exclaimed:
"This is amazing, Meow-Da! You are simply the best Felyne in the world!"
Hearing his Boss's praise and feeling the comfortable scratching on his chin, Meow-Da couldn't help but let out a satisfied purr.
He said triumphantly:
"Hehe, I am the best Felyne, meow~"
After giving his good partner a proper petting, Andrew immediately classified these crops carefully and began to mark out new land to prepare for planting.
Currently, Mandragoras, Blue Mushrooms, Herbs, Adamant Seeds, Might Seeds, Nullberries, and Antidote Herbs had already been planted on this land.
Among them.
Herbs, which were the easiest to survive, grew the fastest, and were the easiest to reproduce, occupied the largest area.
And this was also a good thing that one could never have too much of.
Following closely behind were Blue Mushrooms and Antidote Herbs.
As a blending material, Blue Mushrooms had almost no use on their own aside from tasting pretty good.
But as long as they were blended again with the Antidote made from the equally fast-growing Antidote Herbs, they would become Herbal Medicine, which had a stronger detoxification effect and even carried a certain healing effect.
If not for the insufficient size of the balcony before, requiring him to prioritize urgent plants, Andrew would definitely have planted some.
But it wasn't too late now.
The Blue Mushrooms planted in the greenhouse had already matured, and the first batch had been harvested.
Andrew could finally start blending Herbal Medicine instead of continuing to directly use Antidote Herbs to make Antidotes.
By then, with Herbal Medicine, the safety of Zhu Yuan, Jane, and other friends he knew would be better guaranteed.
However, the growth speed of Blue Mushrooms was slightly faster than Antidote Herbs, so the current quantity was actually reversed, being slightly higher.
But this didn't affect anything.
After all, as a Blue Mushroom with enhancing effects, it was also very good when used as an ingredient for Felyne Meals.
Not only was it delicious, but it could also make the effects of the Felyne Meal stronger.
It could serve perfectly as an ingredient to properly enhance the physical constitution of this large group of people under his command.
And after that came the slowest growing Adamant Seeds, Might Seeds, and Nullberries.
Although the first two grew quickly, they were plants that could continuously bear fruit after growth ended.
He just had to wait for the planted quantity to meet the demand, and after that, he only needed to harvest them periodically.
It was just that, similarly, because the balcony at the Seliana Smithy was really too small, there was simply no space to plant them.
So in Silver City, although fifteen stalks of each of these three plants had been planted additionally the moment he arrived here.
The ones that could bear fruit were still only the five stalks of each that had been transplanted from the balcony at the very beginning.
Like fruit trees, the growth period before producing fruit was the longest.
But soon, the remaining ones would also approach the time for their first fruiting within these two days.
Starting from then, the sales plan proposed by Yixuan earlier could be put on the agenda.
As for the Mandragora that was only planted when he came to bury fertilizer last time.
This thing was purely a poison before it could be blended.
It was the kind that was much fiercer than those hallucinogenic mushrooms.
So even if a round had already been harvested now, it wasn't of much help to the current situation.
But as long as the Ancient Tree sprouted, and Bitterbug Juice and Honey could be duplicated, this would be the most indispensable item for making Immunizers and Max Potions.
So even if it wasn't very useful under the current circumstances, Andrew had no intention of reducing its planting area at all.
With the inventory of already planted plants completed.
Next was to carve out a planting area for these new crops brought by Meow-Da.
He carefully inspected the entire land. Excluding the Ancient Tree seed area in the center that directly occupied one-third of the entire greenhouse.
In the remaining space, the crops planted in large areas previously had already occupied close to seventy percent of the available land.
Although not large, it was enough to plant these crops brought by Meow-Da.
Under such circumstances.
After carving out a small blank area, Andrew began to divide the planting zones.
As for Hot Peppers and Chillshrooms, the raw materials for Hot Drinks and Cool Drinks, he only needed to plant a small amount consistently as emergency reserves.
After all.
For many years, New Eridu had never experienced extreme weather conditions.
Even in the Hollows, there had never been that kind of scorching environment covered in lava, or a bitter cold environment of dozens of degrees below zero.
Coupled with the fact that Andrew could already completely ignore Ether energy corruption.
It could be said that if not for the spatial distortions in the Hollows, Andrew could completely say that going in there was just like a field trip.
Therefore.
At least under the condition that New Eridu didn't have that kind of extreme climate when exploring Hollows right now, Hot Peppers and Chillshrooms were not among the existing crops that needed to be planted in large quantities immediately.
However, this was only the situation where arable land was limited.
If he continued to expand the farmland and prepared for sales later, Cool Drinks and Hot Drinks, as beverages that could increase resistance to different temperatures, would also have a very powerful effect for New Eridu.
And after that came the Nitroshroom, the material for Immunizers.
Let's not talk about anything else regarding this.
Even if he planted a large amount immediately right now, it wouldn't be of much use given that Honey, the other main raw material, still had to wait for the Ancient Tree to sprout.
So Andrew planned to plant it together with the Fire Herbs, following the quantity the Ancient Tree could produce, planting exactly the same amount.
If there was still a surplus, he would just synthesize Gunpowder first.
Thinking of this, Andrew couldn't help but sigh.
Honey, Bitterbug Juice.
These two blending materials, which were originally the easiest to obtain and the most basic, had instead become Andrew's biggest problem in making various potions in New Eridu.
But even if the Ancient Tree sprouted, the amount of crops it could duplicate each time was only so much.
With both items being so scarce, Andrew still felt a bit helpless.
"Sure enough, relying solely on the Ancient Tree won't work. I still have to find a method to replace them."
There was no way for Bitterbug Juice for the time being, but for Honey, Andrew could be said to have already had a plan to try for a long time.
It was just that he suffered from finding no channel to purchase Honey.
After all, an isolated city under the apocalypse like New Eridu had an ecology that had already collapsed to the point of no return.
So insects like honeybees, which could easily be found in a normal world, really couldn't be bought in New Eridu without some connections.
At least Andrew didn't find any purchasing channels on the Proxy Net.
And Andrew wanted to find Nicole for this reason as well.
After all, greedy as Nicole was, as long as there were enough Dennies, she always had some unexpected connections in New Eridu.
Just like the resident ID cards before.
So for something like purchasing Honey, finding her might actually work.
If even she couldn't do it, then he could only go and ask Von Lycaon.
But after all, the person behind the other party was that old fox, the Mayor. Given that he had only met Von Lycaon twice and didn't understand him deeply enough...
It was better not to owe this kind of favor.
As for the remaining empty spots, except for a small area specifically left behind, Andrew decisively designated them as planting areas for Blastnuts.
No matter what, one could never have too much Sticky Ammo!
However, Andrew's plan was beautiful, but a plan was just a plan.
Currently, relying solely on the crops brought by Meow-Da, he hadn't reached the level where he could plant in large quantities from the start.
So even if he planted everything each time, it would still take one or two rounds before he could have some surplus while achieving the planned planting quota.
Thinking of this, Andrew couldn't help but sigh.
After arriving in New Eridu, having to plant these things himself, which could originally be gathered casually, still made him feel a bit melancholic.
Fortunately, the current planting environment had completely taken shape.
Andrew only needed to adjust the planting environment for them and plant them securely, and these crops could grow as quickly as they did in their original world.
Even two rounds would only be a little over a week.
By the time he went to investigate the Waifei Peninsula as agreed with that old fox Mayor, these new crops would probably have reached a level of abundance.
In this way, all the crops had been planted and planned out.
He only needed to teach the Silver Squad later, and then he could rest assured handing over full agency to them.
Speaking of the Silver Squad, Andrew discovered that recently, Xiyun, known as Number Six, had started to show great interest in planting.
Every time he taught, she was the most serious. During this period, aside from watching movies, she spent all her free time looking after the plants in the greenhouse.
She could be said to have contributed greatly to these crops growing so well.
Thinking of this, Andrew immediately took out his phone and ordered a full set of planting textbooks and tools to show his support.
After all, for all members of the Silver Squad, developing hobbies was a good thing.
So Andrew tried his best to satisfy them whenever possible.
Just then, Andrew suddenly felt his hem being gently tugged.
Looking down, he found Meow-Da poking his small paws with a bit of embarrassment.
He looked at Andrew with anticipation in his eyes and said:
"Boss, can this thing be planted too?"
Saying that, he opened a small package that had the most exquisite packaging and was kept in the safest place in his entire backpack.
And as expected.
Inside was the treasure that all Felynes could absolutely never refuse—Felvine.
From Andrew's actions, Meow-Da understood and realized.
Since coming to this world, there were no longer any acquisition channels for everything from the original world. So from now on, he would truly be unable to obtain Felvine anymore.
It wasn't like the state in the Forbidden Lands where there were no Felynes and one had to wait a long time, but could still get a little Felvine when supplies arrived.
It was a state where the acquisition channels were truly and completely gone.
Although as long as Boss was here, it didn't matter if there was no Felvine.
But if possible, he still hoped he could have both Boss and Felvine.
Thus, Meow-Da could only pin his hopes on the possibility that it could be replanted like the other plants.
Andrew, who had long guessed that Meow-Da would have thoughts in this regard, couldn't help but reveal a smile.
After all, from the very beginning, he had already saved a spot for Meow-Da.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have carved out a specific area right at the start.
"As expected of Boss, meow!"
Receiving an affirmative answer, Meow-Da immediately danced with joy for a while before he very reluctantly handed that small bag of Felvine into Andrew's hands.
This was all of Meow-Da's family fortune that he had painstakingly saved up during his time in the Forbidden Lands.
Now, however, he handed it all over to Andrew.
As a Hunter, being able to hold all of his Felyne's Felvine... the weight of this trust need not be said.
Under Meow-Da's expectant gaze.
As the last of the Felvine was planted, even knowing that one must give up something to gain something...
Meow-Da's tail and ears still couldn't help but droop.
Seeing Meow-Da so reluctant to part with it, Andrew, who had actually been prepared all along, took out a large bag with a cat paw print from his item pouch.
And this was precisely the Catnip exclusively for Cat Thirens.
That's right.
Although New Eridu didn't have Felvine, New Eridu had Catnip!
Logically speaking, the effects these two could achieve were very similar!
Moreover, what Andrew bought was the Cat Thiren Special Edition.
The kind with the strongest kick.
"Meow?!"
The scent, which was somewhat similar to Felvine, made Meow-Da's drooping ears perk up instantly.
But after impatiently pulling it open and tasting a little, Meow-Da put it down with a face full of disappointment. But then, after hesitating again and again, he still chose to store it in his backpack.
This series of actions left Andrew a bit puzzled.
Knowing that Andrew wasn't a cat and couldn't understand, Meow-Da explained:
"Boss, this thing, it doesn't have enough kick, meow!"
Afterwards, although Meow-Da's explanation was still a bit hard to understand, Andrew still roughly understood.
Using an understandable metaphor, it was like:
A person who always drank ice-cold Master Kong Ice Tea in the hot summer went to the convenience store one day, but there was no Ice Tea.
There was only Master Kong Jasmine Honey Tea.
Although it was drinkable and the taste was passable.
Ultimately, it wasn't refreshing enough.
It could only be said that, in the absence of Ice Tea, it counted as a substitute at least.
Looking at Meow-Da's state, and recalling the evaluation of 'strong kick' given without exception by other Cat Thirens when he bought it.
Andrew affirmed one thing in secret.
That was, if he met any Cat Thirens in New Eridu, something like Felvine absolutely!
Absolutely must not appear in front of them!
This Catnip already had a strong kick for them, so wouldn't Felvine make them take off directly?
Andrew didn't want to be chased down by humiliated and angry Cat Thirens afterwards.
