Apart from Dao Baifeng's indefinite mission, Zhong Ling's side mission should be the only strategy reward he can obtain.
"Ding! It is detected that Zhong Ling's favorability towards the host reaches 100, the side mission is completed!"
"Task reward: "Ice Qi" and a luxury lucky draw opportunity."
"System, lottery!"
Murong Fu took a deep breath, calmed down, and said.
"Ding! The host consumes one lottery opportunity!"
"Congratulations to the host, for getting 10,000 potato seedlings!"
What the hell?
Murong Fu couldn't believe his eyes, thinking to himself, isn't this the world of martial arts? ❂
When did it become farming?
But complaints were complaints, but after considering potatoes, a high-yielding food crop, he suddenly understood the purpose of the system.
It is reported that potatoes were introduced to the Central Plains during the Wanli Period of the Ming Dynasty, which is four hundred years earlier.
As he had guessed, potatoes, as a high-yielding crop, not only have high nutritional value, but are also easy to store and can be grown in large quantities as strategic grain reserves.
Perhaps in the short term, this reward seems a bit out of place, and even a bit embarrassing, but in the long term, every potato plant planted will give birth to tens of thousands in the future, and it is likely to save thousands of people. .
However, Murong Fu didn't think so long-term yet. Naturally, he had to keep such good things for his own use.
As for the martial arts "Ice Qi", if it wasn't for the purpose of teaching it to Zhong Ling, he wouldn't even bother to read it.
There was no time to sleep with the beauty in his arms, so Murong Fu got up, found paper and pen, and wrote down the method of growing potatoes, and then took it to others to copy more than a hundred copies.
Then, after surveying the terrain of the Vulture Palace, he chose a place with high light intensity but low temperature, and planted a hundred potato seedlings with a hoe.
After all, farming is not too difficult for modern people who have never eaten pork or seen pigs running away.
After that, he found people in Thirty-six Cave and Seventy-two Islands, distributed ten potato seedlings to each person, and told them that whoever came out with this species would receive a 30% reduction on the original annual payment. .
Even though it was only 30%, it was a lot of money in one year. However, in order to gain something as soon as possible, Murong Fu did not care about this.
As for why these unrelated people are allowed to plant, it is naturally because the people of Thirty-six Cave and Seventy-two Islands are distributed throughout the Central Plains. If this batch of strategic grain reserves can be stored in various places, then he will have a Mobile granary?
This idea is crazy, but it is worth a try. After all, the output value of potatoes is very amazing. After these ten plants mature, as long as they continue to plant them according to their own methods, within a few years, just one of them will be a granary. , enough to feed thousands of people for one month!
Although Wu Laoda and others did not know what the potatoes that Murong Fu brought out were, they were all surprised when they learned that they had such a high output value and expressed that they would try their best to cultivate them.
After all, the 30% annual payment is quite a lot!
When Murong Fu instructed them, he did not forget to say: "It is not difficult to grow potatoes. I have written down the detailed process on paper. If you don't understand anything, you can send me a letter and ask me. But one thing is, If anyone dares to leak this information, I will kill him without mercy!"
"Even all the insiders will be excluded!"
Hearing this, everyone who thought that this advantage was easy to take advantage of was shuddered. They felt that the thing in their hands was a hot potato, and some did not dare to take it.
But faced with the 30% annual payment reduction, many people in Wu Laoda gritted their teeth and chose to accept it.
After sending away the people from Thirty-six Holes and Seventy-two Islands, Kang Min and Tianshan Tonglao also came over after getting the news.
Murong Fu told the matter without hiding it from the two of them.
When the Tianshan boy saw that Murong Fu was amassing money and collecting grain, she asked him directly and knocked him down.
"Do you want to be the emperor?"
The corner of Murong Fu's mouth twitched, and he didn't know whether he should answer or not.
But seeing his expression, Tianshan Child Elder just snorted and said: "No matter what you want to do, as long as you don't destroy Lingjiu Palace, you can do whatever you want, then it's up to you!"
Murong Fu smiled coquettishly, and after seeing off the Tianshan boy's grandmother, Kang Min went to the courtyard with him and sat down.
"What about the little girl?"
Kang Min had a bit of amusement in his eyes.
Murong Fu knew that she was talking about Zhong Ling, so he immediately laughed and planned to fool her.
"You have harmed a girl again. You are so dishonest!"
Kang Min saw his expression completely, how could he not know what happened, and couldn't help but give him an angry look.
Murong Fu pulled Kang Min into his arms and sat down, teasingly saying: "If I were honest, how could I have you and me in front of the moon and flowers now?"
"So, it's me who blamed you wrongly?"
Kang Min smiled charmingly, as bright as a spring flower, and her whole body exuded a natural charm. It was really hard to see Murong Fu without being moved.
As if aware of the strange flash in Murong Fu's eyes, Kang Min was also very emotional, but still stretched out his hands to support the man who was already leaning towards him.
"Don't be in a hurry, I have prepared a better gift for you today!"
"What gift could be better than yours?"
Murong Fu leaned down and kissed her white gooseneck gently, feeling as sweet and smooth as jade, which made people unable to help themselves.
Kang Min blushed because of her, and said uncontrollably: "My four sisters are waiting for you in the room, can you really bear to not go?"
"What four sisters?"
Murong Fu was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, and looked at Kang Min with a somewhat puzzled expression.
Kang Min saw what he was thinking, and gently arranged Murong Fu's clothes, and said with a chuckle: "Although Child Elder has entrusted me with the management of Lingjiu Palace, the four sisters Mei, Lan, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum are still not familiar with me. It’s hard to stay united...and at this time, you need to take action!”
Murong Fu was a little confused and asked, "Does Child Elder know about this?"
Kang Min said: "Tong Lao told me that as long as you don't get involved with Li Qiu Shui, I will give these four sisters to you for a bargain!"
When Murong Fu heard this, he couldn't help but think of what the Tianshan Child's Grandmother said to him when he was at Yanziwu that day.
At that time, he thought it was Tianshan's child's joke, but he didn't expect that the other party actually took it seriously.
"Don't let down my four sisters, go quickly!"
Kang Min stood up and looked at Murong Fu, her eyes filled with infinite love and tenderness, as if she was willing to give anything for the man in front of her.
And after coming into contact with the Tianshan Child Elder, everything she did was without exception, all for Murong Fu.
