“Is Ajax doing well?”

After breakfast, Sejun checked if Ajax was doing the task he had assigned properly.

[Current tasks assigned to Ajax Mambube, the tower farmer of the White Tower]

– Planting seeds of Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power (50,000/100,000)

– Harvesting Elixir: Cherry Tomato Imbued with Powerful Magic Power (3,920/28,000)

A new task of planting seeds had been added to what was assigned to Ajax.

When Sejun realized that eating the elixir-grade cherry tomatoes had no effect, he kept only a portion and harvested seeds from 3,000 of them, obtaining 100,000 seeds.

He then used the tower’s transportation to send those seeds to Ajax with instructions to plant them. Of course, Ajax had to pay the 1 million tower coins for the delivery.

It would have been easier to have Ajax directly plant the harvested elixir-grade cherry tomatoes directly, but that would infringe on the exclusive cultivation rights. Sejun had to give permission and hand over the seeds himself.

It was a bit bothersome, but in return, it ensured the preservation of exclusive cultivation rights, so there was no complaint.

“He’s doing well.”

Seeing Ajax diligently completing his tasks, Sejun commented with satisfaction. Judging by the harvest, it seemed he would soon need to use the Tower’s transport system again.

There were some grievances, though. Ajax’s slow work pace wasn’t to Sejun’s liking. However, since he was following instructions, no penalty could be given, nor was it a breach of contract.

Rather than confronting him, Sejun planned to ask Aileen to have a chat with Ajax when the opportunity arose.

After checking on Ajax, Sejun headed to the brewery. It was to make the new alcohol he had promised Kaiser and deliver 10 bottles.

Upon arriving at the brewery:

Ook! Ook!

The monkeys, about to start their work, greeted Sejun.

“Do we have any finished makgeolli stored?”

Ook!

In response to Sejun’s question, the monkeys pointed to the massive glass jars containing makgeolli.

“Great. Pour it in here.”

Ook!

With the help of the monkeys, Sejun took out a massive pot, filled it with makgeolli, and sealed it.

Chomp.

[You have consumed a Sturdy Strength Yellow Bean that boosts strength.]

[Strength stat is increased by 100% for 1 minute.]

[Strength stat increased by 33.]

Grip. Grip.

After eating the yellow bean, Sejun used his enhanced strength to seal the pot and its lid so that no steam could escape.

Then,

Poke.

He made a hole in the center of the lid and attached a U-shaped tube, which was made by stretching out a fire ant carapace by Cuengi, ensuring it wouldn’t tear, and then rolling it thin following Sejun’s detailed instructions.

While making this, Sejun had requested a lot of details, so during the process to appease the annoyed Cuengi, 10 bottles of honey went into his snack pouch.

After attaching the tube to the pot lid and sealing any gaps with rice dough, Sejun placed the pot over the fire and began boiling it. Initially, he kept the fire strong, but when it started boiling, he reduced the heat.

After some time,

Drip. Drip.

Drops of liquid began to fall from the end of the tube, and the strong scent of alcohol permeated the surroundings. Sejun was in the process of distilling the alcohol to make soju.

Sniff Sniff.

Krueng!

[Big bro, it smells!]

Cuengi, who was playing with Theo at the entrance of the brewery, said while inhaling deeply. Theo was playing with Cuengi since he wasn’t allowed inside.

Of course, it wasn’t Theo’s choice; Sejun had placed him there before entering.

“Smells like alcohol, right?”

Theo responded while licking himself.
