Chapter 3 From the first day of the Emerald Elephant Season
After some in-depth questioning on my part, the tavern owner Dart seemed to have some misunderstanding and thought that I was a person who could understand him when I asked these questions. He treated me to a meal cooked by him with unusual enthusiasm.
Honestly speaking, the boss's food tastes really first-class.
Not to mention the nutritious creams I took when I was building bricks in the glittering city, even the meals from famous chefs I ate when I was young, or the expensive ingredients that surfaced in my sleep memories, were almost the same.
There is no doubt that if the boss concentrates on developing his cooking business, he will be able to monopolize the small town's catering industry in the shortest possible time.
The premise is that someone can break his unrealistic fantasy of dominating the entire food, beverage, and accommodation industry.
As a person with memories of two lifetimes, I can feel that due to the closed internal and external environment of this small town, the industry has tended to be balanced. There is no possibility of anyone being rich in the world, nor is it possible for one person to lose all his wealth.
.
It is this stable environment that allows Boss Dart to expand his business as he pleases without having to worry about losses.
Presumably the most troublesome enemy for the boss's profit statement is really the problem of food imports.
At this point, I also understood why the people in the town left this ranch idle and did not operate it, but they still wanted to voluntarily protect it from collapse and abandonment.
When it comes to business operations, there are not enough manpower. Social division of labor has been formed for everyone, and no one has spare time to farm and herd.
If it is abandoned, if the food supply is cut off one day, then this small town on the island will really become a small boat on the ocean, and it will capsize at any time, without even a way out.
"It seems like I really have to show my value here."
I still think with confidence.
Until the absurd reality brought my attention back.
…………
The scope of the pasture is extremely wide. In its heyday, agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery must have been all-encompassing, and the products produced were piled high.
But now there are only endless grass and rocks in front of me, and an old house standing alone.
I pushed open the door of the house and saw that the floor was made of oak wood. Time had not completely destroyed these floors, but a few clumps of weeds stubbornly grew out of the corners.
In the middle is a huge window. The glass has been repaired and is still intact, but all the paint on it has fallen off. It looks like an old woman has deliberately dressed up and put on heavy makeup, which makes people feel even more uncomfortable.
The place where the bed used to be in the middle now seems to have no trace of the bed frame. It may have been taken away a long time ago.
I walked around in circles and suddenly turned my attention to the dormant cabin outside.
This sleeping cabin can be used as a comfortable single bed when the power is off. It comes with a synthetic fiber sleeping bag and health detection device, making it a good emergency choice.
So I came to the location of the airdrop cabin, briefly disassembled the parts from the cabin, and prepared to drag the dormant cabin out.
"Character basic attributes: carrying ability
This character's ability to carry items with his hands, mouth or other mechanical devices. The standard value is based on the normal human limit strength of 750.
Related characteristics: Beiye (gold) +25
Son of Nature (gold)*90%
Health: Operation ability*100% (weight 100%)
Size(1.00) multiplier*100%
Final value: 698”
Before I started, I had an idea and looked at the basic ability information in the system, hoping to evaluate my ability to bear weight.
If I remember correctly, although the limits of human athletes are not as high as those of insects, which can lift objects hundreds or thousands of times their body weight, there are also cases of lifting three times their own body weight.
In other words, the maximum human strength of 750 should be similar to the ultimate performance of Strongman. For example, the historical strongman Paul Anderson has a barbell squat of 547 kg, a barbell bench press of 284 kg, a deadlift of 371 kg, and a bench squat of 2.84 tons.
My final value of 698 was about 93% of 750.
“…”
I can lift more than two hundred kilograms and push more than two tons?!
I grabbed a corner of the dormant chamber, and with a little movement of my arms, I lifted it over my head lightly, carried it on my shoulders, and walked out without even feeling the weight!
A hibernation chamber made of all metal is conservatively estimated to weigh more than 150kg. Even if the material is aviation metal and is hollow, it will not affect the added weight of the outer metal shell and the circuit board inside.
I walked outside with some disbelief and grabbed a huge boulder buried deep in the ground.
This huge boulder was not as deep into the ground as I imagined. It was just covered with a layer of soil, but it should weigh more than 200 kilograms. I lifted it over my head lightly and deftly, without even using my muscles.
, completely unlike those athletes with exposed veins and gritted teeth when exerting force!
I carried this stone for a while and felt no change in my physical strength, so I turned my attention to another huge stone lying on the spot.
This piece was obviously more than three times the size of the previous one, which converted into a weight of nearly 800 kilograms. I stepped forward and grabbed a corner of the stone. A funny arpeggio sounded in my ears, but the stone did not move at all...
I clicked on the character information in my field of view and saw a short piece of information added to the character status.
"Character information: Marcus, ranch owner
Male, reformer, from Shining City
Can't lift this stone"
“…”
Sure enough it doesn't work.
After this test, I roughly knew where my limits were, so I pushed a handful of rocks.
Unexpectedly, the stone was like a sponge, pushed out twenty centimeters by me regardless of the resistance of the ground.
“…”
I forgot that I still have more than two tons of thrust.
In this way, I began to freely test this pasture, and every stone and tree became a tool for my testing.
After experiments, I found that whether it is one kilogram or two hundred kilograms, it is just as effortless for me to lift it up and go, and it does not put any burden on my body.
The strange thing is that even the depth of the footprints on the ground are exactly the same.
But if the weight of the target object exceeds a certain value of more than 200 kilograms, I will not be able to lift even one centimeter. There is no decrease in lifting force as the weight increases.
In other words, for me, there are only two states of being able to lift something casually, and being completely unable to lift it.
The same situation is the same in terms of thrust. The things that can be pushed are as if they are equipped with pulleys in my hands, floating around. Once the resistance is too great or stuck on an object that exceeds the thrust, it will not move at all.
Moreover, with such huge power, it would not be possible to create a miracle of fingerprints on a stone.
Even if I pinch a leaf, the lines on it will not be damaged unless I subjectively use my own normal human strength.
………
Calm down.
How come I have such a crude judgment mode like a game character?
Or is it that this system just applies these data patterns to me?
No wonder before the golden finger system came online, there was nothing special about my life ahead of me.
It turns out that the plug-in data system is not online!
I looked at the grass and rocks all over the courtyard, and suddenly felt that these were no problems.
I can remove small stones and trees manually without causing any burden.
I can also carry big things or push them away from the place.
If you still can’t push it away…
Then I can use tools like axes and pickaxes!
What's the difference between humans who don't know how to use tools and orangutans?!
"It was so dangerous. I was almost blinded by the power." I wiped the non-existent cold sweat on my head and felt very lucky that I did not become a mountain gorilla.
Of course, even ordinary mountain gorillas can't beat me now.
