Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
After Hu Bugui unloaded the spirit beast manure, he did not directly quote a price.
Instead he opened his mouth, looking as if he had something to say but hesitated.
Xu Zhangqing asked doubtfully: "What is it?"
Hu Bugui forced a laugh: "Can I invest manure... no, invest!"
"Huh?" Xu Zhangqing stared wide-eyed.
Hu Bugui said helplessly: "There are still two years until the Formal Disciple Grand Competition, during which all kinds of resources will keep rising in price; simply selling manure is a bit hard to make a living from."
Xu Zhangqing suddenly understood: "You want to use spirit beast manure to invest in my Second Grade Spirit Field."
"Yes yes yes!" Hu Bugui nodded vigorously.
Xu Zhangqing could not help but ponder.
Fertilizing spirit rice indeed increases yield, this was tested last winter.
If I can get Hu Bugui's long-term investment, the benefits will definitely outweigh the drawbacks.
But the question is, how much does he plan to take?
That is the crux of the crux.
Too little, and he definitely won't agree.
But too much, and I won't agree either.
Hu Bugui seemed to see through his thoughts, so he immediately said: "If you only want Hundred-Year Spirit Beast Manure, I'll take one-tenth of the total yield."
That is one hundred jin taken from one thousand jin.
Two hundred jin taken from two thousand jin.
Of course, the portion submitted for tasks must be deducted first.
"Do you have better spirit beast manure?" Xu Zhangqing said in surprise.
Hu Bugui patted his chest upon hearing this: "Bro, I have some connections in this regard; even Five Hundred-Year, or even Thousand-Year Spirit Beast Manure, I can get it."
Xu Zhangqing thought for a moment and said: "Let's do this, we'll test it in spring first; if everyone is satisfied, we'll continue cooperating afterward."
Hu Bugui's eyes brightened: "No problem!"
Thus, Xu Zhangqing obtained enough Hundred-Year Spirit Beast Manure to cover the entire Spirit Field.
Afterward, as long as he takes out around one to two hundred jin of Second-grade Spirit Rice, it won't count as a breach of contract.
The reason Hu Bugui asks for so little is because of "a cunning rabbit has three burrows."
He is not only investing in Xu Zhangqing.
In fact, he has found many spirit farmers to cooperate with.
Put bluntly, he has gone from a simple Spirit Beast Vendor to a Spirit Beast Supplier.
Although he will lose money at first, he might make a big profit afterward.
The loss is nothing more than the manure spirit beasts produce every day.
But for spirit farmers, this is a good thing that increases yield.
Therefore, even Xu Zhangqing couldn't help but be tempted.
After fertilizing all the Lingti in the Spirit Field.
Xu Zhangqing did not hesitate, turned around, and walked toward the Core Management Office.
Since it has already begun, time cannot be wasted.
Every opportunity must be seized.
Simply go post the Rainfall task now.
Find a Formal Disciple with a Water Spirit Root to cast the Small Cloud Rain Art.
Actually, there is another choice.
That is to find a Water Spirit Root Dao Companion.
That way there is no need to post a task and wait expectantly for others to help.
But the problem is, Xu Zhangqing has too many secrets and cannot easily reveal them.
If others find out that a spirit farmer who just joined the Core Management Office has a one-mu Spirit Field yield comparable to, or even exceeding, Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators.
That will definitely cause a sensation, and even be "noticed" by the Immortal Masters.
If it is simply attributed to talent, that is too far-fetched.
After all, in the Outer Perimeter, Xu Zhangqing only succeeded on the Third Assessment.
Therefore, his Cultivation Realm must first be raised to a certain height before considering this matter.
Just like last time, post a task, fill in the remuneration.
Afterward, receive a notification Spirit Talisman.
Next, just wait patiently.
Time quickly came to the next day; Xu Zhangqing had just finished breakfast.
The Spirit Talisman on his body vibrated and began to flash.
This means a Water Spirit Root Disciple has already accepted the task and is hurrying over.
Xu Zhangqing was not in a hurry; first he cultivated on the Spirit Field Ridge, absorbing Wood Spirit Qi.
Then he chased the little yellow dog all over the ground, exhausting it until it stuck out its tongue.
Finally, the Spirit Talisman's flashing frequency grew faster and faster.
Xu Changqing originally thought the other party would walk over.
Unexpectedly, she was actually stepping on the back of a Flying Paper Crane.
Xu Changqing looked up and saw a female Disciple with a Water Spirit Root.
Her appearance was rather pure and innocent.
A pair of large eyes was especially eye-catching.
"Is it Xu Dao Friend?" An inquiring voice came from above.
Xu Changqing replied: "I am Xu Changqing, who is Dao Friend?"
"I am called Bai Ling'er, the Water Spirit Root Formal Disciple who took your Rainfall Task." At the same time, the Flying Paper Crane above slowly descended.
Whoosh.
Bai Ling'er jumped down.
Then... it was a bit awkward.
Xu Changqing went from originally looking up to directly looking down.
Bai Ling'er was even more tilting her head back, standing on her tiptoes.
Seeing the other party only reached his chest, Xu Changqing couldn't help but laugh and ask: "Your parents didn't come along?"
Bai Ling'er said indignantly: "This is the task I took, what would my parents come along for!"
Xu Changqing's original intent was to tease; hearing this, he couldn't help but freeze for a moment, then asked tentatively: "Your parents are also in the Water Pavilion?"
Bai Ling'er nodded lightly: "My father is a Talisman Master in the Water Pavilion."
"Oh wow!"
The smile on Xu Changqing's face instantly vanished, his attitude becoming even more polite: "This time, trouble Dao Friend Bai."
Good fellow, can't afford to offend.
Although he had never been to the Water Pavilion.
He also knew, this Talisman Master's status is not low.
If he accidentally angered Bai Ling'er with words, and her parents came knocking later, that would be bad.
Therefore, better be honest.
"Deal!" Bai Ling'er turned around, facing the Spirit Field directly.
Activated Small Cloud Rain Art (Second Layer).
Only saw her wave her small hand.
The Water Spirit Qi in the air ahead rapidly gathered.
In a moment, a layer of mist formed above the Spirit Field.
Moreover, this mist looked faintly somewhat black.
Seemingly evolving toward real dark clouds.
Xu Changqing raised an eyebrow, secretly thinking: "Previously saw it once at the Outer Perimeter, compared to now, completely not the same level.
Looks like, this Bai Ling'er's aptitude is not low."
Splash!
The sound of rain resounded.
Dense Spirit Rain fell, covering most of the Spirit Field.
A moment later, the Spirit Plants that received the rain were obviously more robust.
Covered top and bottom with a layer of "Water Light Skin".
"Done." Bai Ling'er appeared very relaxed.
"This is the remuneration, twenty Low-grade Spirit Stones." Xu Changqing decisively took out money.
The reason for using Spirit Stones.
Mainly to create the illusion for others that he also has no Spirit Rice.
This way, it won't arouse suspicion.
After all, the current price of Spirit Rice has already skyrocketed crazily.
Bai Ling'er accepted the Spirit Stones, then took out a Spirit Talisman: "This is my Communication Talisman, when you need help just say the word, no need to post a task."
"Good." Xu Changqing carefully accepted it.
"Leaving." Bai Ling'er jumped onto the Flying Paper Crane, then swiftly departed.
Xu Changqing only breathed a sigh of relief when he could no longer see her: "Fortunately she's young, didn't understand what I just said, otherwise I'd be unlucky."
Afterward, he placed his gaze on the Spirit Field.
Now Earth Loosening, fertilizing, and Rainfall are all done.
As long as no Surprise appears, this time's yield will Absolutely rapidly increase.
Even possibly exceed three thousand catties!!!
