Chapter 43: Emerald Fragrance Accumulates (Second Update)

  Looking at the spring water barely submerged to the position of the rice bed, Zhou Yi closed the water gate. However, the field still cannot be used at this time, and it is necessary to let the spring water that has just flowed into the field be fully absorbed by the land, and then merge with the soil before it can be used to nurture the seedlings.

  Although there are agricultural societies that sell all kinds of rice seedlings directly these days, Zhou Yi is not planning to buy those cheap ready-made things. He wants the kind of rice seeds provided by the system, which must be cultivated with his own hands in order to feel at ease.

  At this point, Zhou Yi opened the system store. At this time, the 'planting' category of equipment and tools were already in a selectable state. Zhou Yi roughly browsed through them and found that apart from various farming equipment with bonuses for the planting profession, there were also seeds for all sorts of grains, vegetables, and fruits: rice, wheat, corn, peanuts, red beans, green beans, cabbage, radishes... you name it.

  However, these seed names are very strange, and if there is no corresponding pattern, they are difficult to distinguish for the time being.

  For example, what is obviously a radish is called "Ji Yuan Xue Dong", and what is obviously a peanut is called "Fen Zhai Bai Shi". Moreover, the price is also frighteningly high, more than ten or even hundreds of times higher than in reality!

  The gaze of the Zhouyi lingers on the classification of grain seeds, and just seeing the rice varieties alone, there are dozens of them, each corresponding to different regions, climates, and environments. Suitable for the warm temperate mountainous environment of Yunshui Mountain, there are three types: 'Jinlan Yudai', 'Chiri Hongshi' and 'Lücuixiangji'.

  Another look at the price, Zhou Yi suddenly stumbled and almost fell into the field that had just been watered.

  Is this rice for human consumption? The price is a hundred times more expensive than what black-hearted merchants charge!

  These rice varieties are all priced by mu. Zhou Yi took a rough look and the cheapest one was 'Green Emerald Fragrance', which still cost 200,000 system coins per mu!

  What concept is this? Nima, it's saying that if you want to plant two mu of land, you need 400,000 soft sister coins to buy seeds! 'Chi Ri Hong Shi' and 'Jin Lan Yu Dai' are even more outrageously expensive, respectively costing 300,000 and 500,000 per mu.

  Is this a grain or money? Zhou Yi is really confused, he himself is a food consultant in his hometown, with an annual salary of 1.5 million, thinking that he has a lot of money, but unexpectedly it's just a frog at the bottom of the well. Now it seems that if you're not careful, even farming can lead to bankruptcy...

  Although these rice varieties are a bit expensive, with Zhou Yi's understanding of the system, they are still very much anticipated. Such expensive rice varieties must produce what kind of rice? Just thinking about it makes this foodie drool.

  Emerald green and fragrant, with a color like jadeite, yielding 500-700 kg per mu. After eating, the fragrance lingers on the lips and teeth for three days. Long-term consumption can strengthen the body, improve physical fitness, and benefit the elderly by prolonging their lifespan...

  "Who would have thought there are so many benefits, 400,000 is just 400,000, might as well take a gamble!"

  After reading the description of Green Fresh Rice, Zhou Yi gritted his teeth and bought two mu of rice seeds. At the same time, 400,000 yuan was deducted from his bank card.

  Such expensive rice, I'm afraid even the head of state in the United States hasn't heard of it. Fortunately, Zhou Yi is preparing to plant it for himself to eat, if he sells it, he really doesn't know how much money per catty is suitable.

  Looking at the early sky, Zhou Yi took off his shoes and rolled up his pants, walked into the field and broadcast 'Green Fragrance Accumulation'. At this time, it showed the greatness of planting nine-level Da Yuan Man. When Zhou Yi was broadcasting, as long as he swept his eyes slightly, he could immediately find the most suitable position for sowing seeds on the rice bed. Every seed could be placed in a place with full land power and warm water vapor; if the position is not enough, Zhou Yi would use his hand to gently turn over and stir the soil, and then sow after the land power is full.

  With him, the 9th-level Farm God, plus the special nature of 'Green Luxuriant Fragrance' and the support of the fertile land force of these two acres, these rice varieties can be harvested in about 15 days. It's twice as fast as normal, and every single one is a strong and healthy seedling!

  After planting the two mu of rice, Zhou Yi didn't leave in a hurry. He walked to the edge of Jianma Lake to wash his hands and feet, then went back to the Land Rover to fetch some small snacks and a thermos that he had prepared beforehand. Then he climbed up the mountain behind the field, found a large bluestone that was just long enough for one person, and sat down to enjoy his snacks and tea while gazing at the rice seeds he had just scattered, living a carefree life like an immortal.

  "The remaining mu of land should be used to grow something profitable, otherwise just buying rice seeds would be enough to bankrupt me..."

  Ji Yi furrowed his brow, and indeed, he was somewhat perplexed. Planting something low-key to sell for money would be the least likely to attract attention from others, and thus would not affect his peaceful and leisurely life; but what exactly should he plant? Something like 'Green Emerald' that is too expensive to consider, the cost is too high, it's impossible to sell; planting melons and fruits? Not possible either, selling them would be too much trouble, too tiring.

  After thinking for half a day, I still couldn't think of anything. Zhou Yi was worried, when he heard someone shouting loudly from the mountain below: "Uncle, uncle, are you on the mountain?"

  Zhou Yi lowered his head and took a look, it was Er Lai Zi: "Lai Zi, something's up?"

  "My grandpa asked you to go home and have dinner with us. He said he wants to thank you for helping him sell the plates."

  The two lazy men looked around and laughed, saying: "Uncle, you've finished planting the rice seeds? Uncle, you're really amazing! Two mu of land for rice seeds, even a good farmer would take half a day to finish, but you've already done it?"

  "This little trick is nothing in your uncle's hands."

  Hehe, with a smile, he stood up and went down the mountain: "Let's go, if I don't eat this meal from your grandfather, I'm afraid he won't be at ease either..."

  This meal was actually what Li Yuanfang had been clamoring to invite for a long time, but it coincided with the summer harvest and also had to host a banquet on the long table, so it was put off. At this point, the wheat of the summer harvest has basically all been threshed and stored in the warehouse, and the rice seeds have all been planted and are waiting to come out, which is considered leisure time.

  The three mu of Zhouyi's land were still three or four miles away from the village, and the two of them got into the Land Rover, chatting idly as they drove.

  "Second Brother, you're also twenty-seven this year, right? You're two years older than me in terms of age, why haven't you taken a wife yet?"

  Zhou Yi has been hanging out with Er Lai Zi a lot lately, and is always being called by his uncle, so it's time to show some concern for the younger generation from the older generation.

  "Yeah, I don't have parents and our family condition is not good either, so..."

  When mentioning this matter, Erkuai's expression dimmed for a moment, but he quickly smiled foolishly: "However, my aunt told someone that she had arranged a marriage for me... It is said to be a girl from Shangzha Village, and the person is very good. I heard that her butt is big and her waist is round. If I marry her over, you can hold your grandson next year."

  "That's good, talk to him properly. When you get married, I'll give you a big red envelope as your uncle and send you a set of household appliances, how about that?" Zhou Yi smiled.

  "Alright alright, thank you uncle, I'll definitely work hard on it!"

  The second fool swung his arm with great force, as if he had made a very big decision.

  Ps: Thanks to 'Yuè Qì Lóng Lóng', 'Tiān Cán Tiān Qì', 'Fǎng Fú Gē Dé Fā Biāo', 'Dǐng Guà Guà Fántí Gāng' and 'Shàng Shàn Shuǐ Quán' brothers for their rewards, thanks to everyone's recommendations and collections, you are the light and darkness of my back!

  This is the second update:)
