The first thing Rong Shichu noticed was the price of rice. He was delighted when he saw it. More than a thousand star coins? !
According to today's crop prices, can rice be so cheap?
She immediately opened her eyes and looked carefully, and saw that it turned out to be ten grams of rice and one thousand star coins. Her pupils shrank sharply. Is rice actually sold by weight per gram? When she remembered what netizens said about fruits being sold piece by piece, she had an epiphany.
"Ronggu, are all staple foods so expensive?" Rong Shichu sighed, "I have to eat more than a hundred grams of rice for one meal, which is more than ten thousand star coins. I really can't afford it... I still have to Save money to buy a protective shield.”
There are also some staple foods such as rice in her space, but the key is that rice grows differently in different worlds. Without Rong Gu and the planting robot, she could eat it. Unfortunately, with them around, Rong Shichu had to be obedient. After all, she didn't know if someone in this world would suddenly want to hack into the chips of the two robots and know her secret. Although this might be small, Rong Shichu didn't want to take the risk.
"Why don't you, Miss, buy a few hundred grams to taste first, and then grow your own staple food?" Ronggu suggested when she saw the mistress's embarrassed look.
"That's the only way it can be." Rong Shi chose a kind of rice and bought a pound of it, which cost more than 100,000 yuan. She felt extremely distressed when she paid.
After buying the rice, she didn't know what staple food to plant. She liked rice, wheat, and corn very much, but it would take too much time and energy to plant them all. Even if she had a planting robot to help her with her chores, the seedlings would have to be planted by her. Plant one tree at a time. Thinking about the amount of rice or wheat that needs to be planted on one acre of land, her eyesight goes dark. There are so many, how long will she have to plant them?
What's more, even if she really gritted her teeth and planted the seeds, the money to buy the seeds was still a huge amount. Ten grams of rice cost more than a thousand star coins. That kind of seed was more precious and definitely more expensive. The money to buy the seeds was quite expensive. .
Rong Shichu immediately gave up the idea of growing rice or wheat. How about she eat more Western food?
Full of disappointment, Rong Shichu covered her eyes and spread out on the sofa, thinking about what plants in her space were suitable to grow as her own staple food.
Her mind was spinning rapidly, and her consciousness was scanning her companion space carefully...
When she saw a very tall tree with a crown like a giant umbrella covering the sky, her eyes immediately lit up: Isn't this a bread tree? She remembered that she was very surprised when she first learned about this tree. She even went to its place of origin to see it. After tasting the breadfruit it produced, she liked it very much, so she transplanted several trees into her own. in space.
I didn’t expect it to grow so big. The oval-shaped breadfruit, as big as a basketball, was hanging on the tree in lovely emerald green, so many and big.
The surprise in Rong Shichu's heart was like a volcano erupting. Isn't this the staple food he dreamed of at this time? She is now very grateful to herself who had a collecting habit and transplanted the bread tree into the space. Look, doesn't this come in handy?
Although there is no plant similar to the bread tree in this interstellar world for the time being, it would be suspicious if she suddenly planted such a plant, but it can be said that she found the seeds from the relics of her ancestor Rong Shiting, and came up with all kinds of whims. I didn’t expect it to actually grow!
As for Rong Shiting’s death, it’s been thousands of years, and this kind of seed has been around for thousands of years, so how can he still keep growing it? Rong Shichu can only say that this kind of vitality is too tenacious. Maybe this is its peculiarity.
Anyway, no matter what, just blame the ancestors for the matter. Who made Rong Shiting so amazing and talented in the past? It is possible that he inherited one or two magical seeds. As for why he didn't plant them in the first place. ? Maybe he forgot about this kind of seed, or maybe he didn't have time to plant it.
In short, the dead will not speak, and Rong Shichu was not afraid that his lies would be exposed.
She immediately took a few breadfruit seeds, excitedly found Ronggu, and said excitedly: "Ronggu, look, these are some seeds I found among the relics of my ancestors. I don't know what they are." Plant seeds?”
Rong Gu came over and scanned it, shook her head in confusion and said, "There is no information about this kind of seed in my knowledge base. Is my knowledge base too small?"
Rong Shichu quickly comforted her: "No, no, your knowledge has always been very complete. Maybe this kind of seed is too rare, but no matter what kind of seed it is, I will try to plant it. If it grows, I will naturally know; if it doesn't, I will know it." Then we don’t know its type.”
As she said this, she happily walked out the door. The bread tree loves the sun, is heat-resistant, wet-resistant and drought-resistant, so it is easy to grow.
Rong Shichu buried the seeds in a suitable open space and immediately began to use plant powers to induce growth. Of course, she only planned to plant one bread tree, so she did not induce the growth of the other seeds, only the strongest one. One grain.
Beautiful green buds soon popped up from the soil, and then the tender buds grew taller, opened branches, and scattered leaves... Before long, they became a vibrant seedling, until it grew Rong Shichu stopped when it was one foot high.
She lay on the ground, looking at this delightful seedling, and her heart was filled with hope that she would soon be able to eat breadfruit.
Breadfruit has a very high starch content. After roasting, the pulp tastes just like real bread, soft and delicious, sweet and slightly sour.
In addition to baking, the fruit can also be boiled or fried, and tastes similar to potatoes. In short, breadfruit is an affordable and delicious staple food, and the yield is also very high. A medium breadfruit tree can produce as much as one year. It grew more than three hundred breadfruit, enough for Rong Shichu to eat by himself.
Breadfruit is simply a staple food tailor-made for Rong Shichu in this world. Rong Shichu once again thanked himself for taking precautions.
After that, in addition to putting the necessary energy on various vegetables and fruits, Rong Shichu spent all the remaining energy on the bread tree. So in just one week, the bread tree grew to seven or eight meters high. In another week, the results will be available.
Rong Shichu worked even harder at night. The notes left by the ancestors of the Rong family were almost torn by her, absorbing the experience and knowledge of their ancestors like a sponge that constantly absorbs water.
Fortunately, she was smart enough and had enough plants for her to conduct experiments. After combining theory and practice, her planting level improved at a rapid speed, and the plants in the yard also grew rapidly.
Looking at the green vegetable fields, Rong Shichu decided to keep what he ate and sell the rest.
This time she couldn't put it up for auction in an auction house. She was so weak that she couldn't let people know that she could grow so many plants, so she decided to open an online store to sell plants, sell them anonymously, and keep a low profile at first.
