Chapter 1440: Thick Accumulation, Thin Release (16)

Su Qin came and went in a hurry.

It seemed she was quite busy too.

This meeting seemed to really be quite important.

At least Li Ruanyu took it very seriously.

Checking the time, it hadn't reached the meeting time yet.

And the meeting location hadn't been decided either.

Never mind that, first go to the fertilizer workshop and get those fertilizers sorted out.

Calling Qi Yue along, they came together to the fertilizer workshop.

The fertilizer workshop captain Gan Jing enthusiastically invited Zhao Chi and Qi Yue into the yard.

And gave a detailed explanation of the fertilizer workshop's situation.

Originally the fertilizer workshop came with its own yard, with 10 raw material pits.

But 10 pits were definitely not enough, and Fang Li's construction team had expanded twice more.

Finally reaching the current large scale, with a total of 60 raw material pits.

Of these, 55 pits were already filled with fertilizer raw materials and original liquid, 10 tons per pit, totaling 550 tons.

Of these, the original liquid in 30 pits had already finished fermenting and could be made into fertilizer at any time.

But the raw materials in those 25 pits still needed a long time to finish decomposing.

The remaining 5 pits were being filled daily and would be full in a few more days.

Beside them there were specially reserved spots, which would be continuously built as more female villagers joined.

The entire yard naturally carried a strange smell, but the odor was still tolerable.

Because only the earlier 15 pits still had a strong smell.

The later new pits could hardly smell any strange odor.

After using Growth Acceleration Talismans in a while to speed up the decomposition of the raw materials in those pits, this kind of smell would be completely over.

No more waiting.

Zhao Chi immediately took out 25 Growth Acceleration Talismans, clicked to use them all, and selected those 25 raw material pits.

Waves of light.

Zhao Chi now shone like a little sun, and Qi Yue and Gan Jing beside him both had to turn their heads away.

Quickly, 25 beams of white light shot toward the 25 raw material pits.

Large amounts of bubbles rapidly rose in the pits.

After all, the essence of decomposition and fermentation was the action of microorganisms.

And these Growth Acceleration Talismans targeted living objects, able to accelerate time by one month.

Quickly, 10 of them finished decomposing, and the remaining 15 still needed more Growth Acceleration Talismans.

After all, the raw materials for Gold Block Fertilizer needed 90 days to decompose.

Using two more rounds, consuming a total of 44 Growth Acceleration Talismans, all the raw materials finally finished decomposing.

"Alright, Qi Yue, we're going to start making it."

"Mm, come in, my lord."

Making fertilizer was actually very simple.

Put in various materials.

Just keep stirring with a huge long pole.

Qi Yue's 4 arms holding 4 long poles could also play their part.

With just 1 Quick Work Talisman, the fertilizer in all 55 large pits was completely made.

After all, the main time for fertilizer was spent on decomposition and fermentation; the actual making time was very short.

It looked simple, but there were some key steps.

The ratio of rare materials to other materials, the order of input, and the strength and intensity of stirring all had to be mastered well.

At least Zhao Chi thought it was very simple.

As for other people...

Without Meiren Sect's teaching and experience, they probably would need to research for a long time.

As Zhao Chi stirred, various floral and grassy fragrances replaced the original strange odor.

The entire fertilizer workshop yard seemed to have become a fresh field.

Gan Jing praised: "Once these two kinds of fertilizer are made, it's immediately different; the smell and color change is simply earth-shattering."

Zhao Chi nodded: "Now all those earlier raw materials have been completely used up. The raw materials you come into contact with later should be much better."

Gan Jing smiled: "Yes, and everyone knows our work is rather special, so they're all very careful, which brings a lot of convenience to our work too."

"That's good, are you short on people here?"

"Not short, currently 30 of us are completely enough. If it gets too busy later, I'll find Sister Gu Qing."

"Good, you can find me too."

"Understood, then should these fertilizers be transported to Chaoge Village? I'll go call Song Yun's transport team, shall I?"

Zhao Chi nodded: "Right, go find Song Yun, and have her hand these over to Gu Yan for handling."

"Understood."

With these fertilizers, Zhao Chi's territory would have a total of 260 fields with Gold Block Fertilizer applied, and 480 fields with Gold Juice Fertilizer applied.

Of these, 260 fields had both fertilizers applied, and 220 fields had only Gold Juice Fertilizer.

【Gold Block Fertilizer】Yield +110%, Disease Prevention +500%, Fragrance +500%, Duration +500% (6 years)

【Golden Juice Fertilizer】Growth +110%, Pest Resistance +500%, Aroma +500%, Duration +500% (June)

Among Zhao Chi's crops, the slowest-growing is sugarcane, and the fastest-growing is cabbage.

So some Golden Juice Fertilizer can be allocated to the sugarcane, and some Golden Block Fertilizer to the cabbage.

This matter still needs to be discussed in person with Gu Qing.

"Qiyue, you go to the tailor shop and wait for me first, or go to the Carefree Spring instead—I'll come find you in a bit."

Qiyue nodded: "I'll wait for you at the tailor shop, just right for a little nap."

"Alright, see you in a bit."

Arrived at Chaoge Village.

Gu Qing was discussing the unification of farming schedules with Gu Yan, and Zhao Chi joined in upon seeing this.

He also brought the matter of fertilizer into the discussion.

The matter was not complicated.

Zhao Chi's needs were also very clear.

The three of them quickly finished their discussion.

The land is fixed, but the crops planted on it are flexible.

This time it's wheat like this; next time, based on demand, experience fruits or sugarcane can be planted.

So in the end, it isn't divided according to crops, but fertilizer is still applied according to the fields.

Among them, 100 fields have fertile soil, so these 100 fields must have both types of fertilizer applied simultaneously, achieving the effect of strength upon strength.

There are also 160 fields with both types of fertilizer, and 220 fields with only Golden Juice Fertilizer.

From when Zhao Chi ordered the vigorous reclamation of farmland until now, it has been 37 days.

Gu Yan's 200 farmers went all out, along with 132 rat-men digging tunnels day and night, and the successive addition of over 5,000 slaves.

The number of fields in Chaoge Village has reached 7,380.

The greatest credit still goes to those rat-men.
