Chapter 142 Autumn Harvest

Autumn harvest is the busiest time for the people in the agricultural area.

These crops are soaked in sunlight and nutrients at the most suitable time and temperature for two seasons.

Green seedlings sprout from the soft soil, soaked in light and moisture at a stable and suitable temperature, and stretch their branches and leaves. They shake their green leaves in the wind and rain and bloom light flowers.

The crops that finally produce the fullest fruits.

They convert the light from the sky into energy that can be used by plants and provide it to other plants.

Producers.

The mature wheat ears with a little gold covering in brown sway in the air, and the full wheat ears hang down. When the wind blows, you can see the golden wheat waves floating, and the needle-like slender wheat awns swing greatly in the breeze with the breath of nature.

The mature rice fields are interspersed with some slightly yellow-green, layer by layer, which are their slender branches and leaves, which have not yet turned yellow, but have retained a little green. The rice ears have turned brown again, and they are mature.

The dense cotton fields are in full bloom, revealing their snow-white fruits, entangled like snowballs falling on the ground, one ball merging with another. The green sugarcane forests reveal slender leaves. These mature green sugarcanes have sweet juice and plant fibers under their green and slightly black skin.

No matter who looks at it, this will be a bumper harvest.

"Remember, those plants with particularly large seeds must be collected separately. If you find any special plants, you can bring them here separately."

Chongshan is making the final mobilization and sternly declares that these people will not be sneaky.

"If an agricultural group finds good seeds, they can be rewarded. They are not allowed to rob or steal the seeds and plants of other agricultural groups. The discoverer will cancel all the current selections. If they live in a house, they will be downgraded back to a wooden house."

The fields responsible for each agricultural group are divided by dirt roads, and such a large field is allocated to a separate agricultural group.

The selection of plants, modern high-yield plants are obtained after countless generations of hybridization and selection. Although the seeds obtained from the system are not the original version of seeds, when rice and wheat first grew in nature, the yield was incomparable to that of humans' continuous improvement of seedling selection.

Here I would like to mention that if the seeds are purchased from the system, the system will slightly adjust the local environment to enhance their adaptability to the local area.

The drought resistance will be enhanced in the arid area, the low temperature area will be improved by low temperature, and the saline-alkali area will be improved by salt-alkali resistance.

At least it can be successfully planted.

Lest this group of people have a total crop failure, even so, it has never seen anyone who can grow crops with only theoretical output value.

Then it can't help.

When facing some special lords - undead and volcanoes, or even lords of the bottom, no matter how to improve the seeds, it is useless. The system will open a special seed bank for them, such as various mushrooms.

As for how they determine which crop is a good variety, the modern method is the oldest and most stable method.

Plant, plant the seeds, plant multiple acres of land together, plant them together with a control group, and adjust the temperature, water and light.

Using the scientific exhaustive method, they can lock in the plant they need, and they spend hours on this.

... There is also an elf lady who specializes in (theoretically) botany.

Without a few days' rest, the Elf Lady was pulled to the autumn harvest site to check the seeds. The Elf Lady also pulled the Goddess of Life priest to work with her to relieve her work pressure. They have a special lineage of spells that can check seeds and plants, a high-level spell.

Because the Goddess of Life priests only stay in prosperous territories, teach local people planting techniques, and can provide stable-priced injury treatment services, the Church of the Goddess of Life is quite popular in various city-states and has a good reputation.

In a sense, the churches have inherited a lot of knowledge, but people in this world regard it as part of the miracle.

This is a compulsory course for every Goddess of Life priest.

Therefore, the territory safety certificate they issued is the most convincing.

It's just that Ji Lin's territory has experts who are responsible for agricultural planting, such as Chongshan, who has the talent of agricultural expert, and Li Erlang, an old farmer. Now he is doing the agricultural planting, management and experience summary of the territory. Chongshan's tasks are too heavy, and he has not touched his feet all day.

He has consulted the priest of the goddess of destiny, and he does not rely on others for things that his own people can do.

But now there is no one in the territory who specializes in plant spells, let alone spells. People who awaken the potential of plant energy are rare in the current territory (5/1000). These formally trained people can't even cast an orthodox spell.

He can still afford to temporarily hire two botanical experts at a price of 10 gold a day!

What is the concept of 10 gold a day... Hiring them for one day will give you the resources of a house.

This is still a friendly price after the discount, still a bargain... After all, in this world, it is never cheap to let spellcasters work for the city.

There are many spellcasters who only accept monthly payments and earn 600 gold per month. Their skills may not even be as sophisticated as those of Ji Lin's two, a wandering elf and a high-level priest. Other lords can only bite the bullet and pay out one-tenth of their own lords' monthly output to hire these spellcasters to serve their lords.

Not everyone is as comfortable as Ji Lin. The output value has crossed the 1,000 gold mark and started to rush towards 4,000. At this time, most people are still wavering between 1,000 and 2,000, barely surviving.

The output value does not mean that he can get so much money every month. A considerable part of it is the food consumed by the people in the lords every day, the consumption of tools, etc., deducting these self-production and self-sales, as well as foreign trade... The remaining part is the budget part of the income to the city hall.

However, his financial situation can still be described as wealthy.

As Ji Lin picked up the newly produced iron sharp sickle in Lingbo and cut the first bunch of rice, this was Lingbo's first formal large-scale planting of crops and large-scale collection work. This bunch of rice will be preserved as a commemoration.

The autumn harvest began.
