And this precisely confirms that Shen Mu is a deity!
“This wheat is really growing.” Manide's voice trembled at this moment, especially when he directly knelt at the edge of the wheat field, looking at the thriving wheat stalks in front of him, stretching his neck forward, gently smelling the unique fragrance of the wheat.
He was so excited that his whole body was shaking.
This is grain.
If the growth cycle can be shortened by more than a month, it means that these wheat can fully mature in about two months.
And the maturity of wheat in about two months means that it can be harvested once in two months.
It means that a harvest can be obtained every two months.
If wheat is planted early in the spring when it is relatively warm, and then at the end of autumn, perhaps two harvests of wheat can be obtained.
If you add a winter wheat crop, then you can harvest three crops of wheat within a year.
That means there is an opportunity to get an extra harvest.
It means that Manide's former impression of two harvests a year has become three harvests a year, a harvest that can be described as beyond comprehension.
After all, on the Calradia continent, the wheat harvest has always been two harvests a year, that is, two harvests in the turn of spring and summer and autumn.
Now, all of them have directly increased the harvest by one more time.
The grain brought will of course increase again.
For the Kingdom of Swadia, why are they able to have civilians with good physiques, strong and healthy war horses, excellent infantry units, and heavy cavalry units that are second to none on the entire continent?
Even the quality of the standard weapons and equipment can be described as top-notch.
It relies on occupying the most fertile plains and land in Calradia, building towns and castles guarding the passes, and around these towns, castles, and villages, there are also a large number of manors belonging to knights, nobles, and gentry used to cultivate the land.
Being able to harvest wheat twice a year brings a steady stream of grain, and at the same time as having enough grain to feed the population.
It can also develop animal husbandry, develop war horse breeding.
Even more people can be involved in the metallurgical industry, becoming blacksmiths, becoming weapons manufacturing craftsmen, etc., with sufficient labor.
All these factors add up to make the Kingdom of Swadia strong.
And occupying fertile plains and land to harvest enough grain to feed the entire population is a crucial key point.
Manide, as a general from a merchant background, is of course very aware of this.
And now, when he saw the opportunity to harvest wheat three times a year, the reason why he was so excited was because he knew that if the Kingdom of Swadia itself was an agricultural power, having three harvests of wheat a year could feed more people and make animal husbandry more developed, which also meant that the Kingdom of Swadia's troops could be stronger.
Of course, Manide did not understand Shen Mu's ability, he only saw the opportunity to barely calculate three harvests of wheat a year, and he was already excited beyond himself.
And to this, Shen Mu just showed a smile.
Because he knew that this was not the limit of his ability.
Or rather, this is not the limit of the Mount \u0026 Blade rules and Mount \u0026 Blade system that have been evolved after absorbing the rules of the spirit world and hell.
“Then now I need to speed up the wheat growth by another 30 days.”
Shen Mu's thoughts communicated with the system again.
‘Buzz!’
Then white data streams poured out again.
At the same time, it was also like a layer of white mist, covering the top of this acre of wheat field, and with the pure green light spots, it began to penetrate into the wheat.
At the same time, the thriving wheat stalks were transformed again into even more thriving appearances, slowly starting to become thicker, taller, and longer, as if in a stop-motion animation.
Even full ears of wheat appeared at the top of the wheat, gradually causing these originally straight and thriving wheat stalks to slowly bend over.
And with the moment of bending over, the full ears of wheat at the top also began to gradually grow into grains of wheat.
This means that the wheat is about to mature.
Even during the lean season, the wheat can be harvested directly for consumption.
And in the scientific name of crops, there is also a term.
That is green storage wheat.
Even in terms of taste, because it has not fully grown, completely dehydrated, and has not completely solidified.
This wheat will taste quite smooth, tender, and juicy, and even without grinding, it can be directly put in the mouth for consumption, and the taste is quite good, which can be regarded as a delicacy among the common people.
Of course, if you wait another ten days or so to let these wheat grains fully grow into the fullest and strongest, and after grinding, there will be a lot of starch in the wheat grains, this is the final form of these wheat.
The ground flour can be made into bread.
If you add some other beans or bran, it can become very filling black bread.
If it is completely peeled, leaving only the core, then it can be ground into flour and turned into white bread.
Of course, they are all things that can fill the stomach.
They are all food reserves.
At this time, the dialogue box in front of Shen Mu also began to disappear.
【Ding! You have consumed 3000 points of Faith Value, accelerating the growth speed of this wheat field by 30 days!】
【Your current balance of Faith Value is: 10366 points.】
This is the dialogue box about his consumption of Faith Value and the balance of Faith Value.
Shen Mu didn't care at all.
“Manide.” Instead, he slowly opened his mouth, looking at Manide next to him, who was wide-eyed and shocked, kneeling next to the wheat field as if he had seen a ghost.
Looking at these lush wheat stalks that were already bent over and full of grains of wheat in front of him, he slowly opened his mouth and said: “According to your estimation, how many more days will these wheat be fully mature and then harvested?”
Although Shen Mu didn't care about the consumption of Faith Value, he also had to be careful. If he could be accurate to the day, then he could definitely leave a part of the Faith Value, which could be regarded as increasing some margin for his current urgent consumption.
After all, Manide is a businessman, and he has a wealth of life experience among the common people, including a lot of experience in agricultural development. At this time, referring to his opinion is a very good thing.
And at this time, Manide also officially woke up.
At this time, he looked at the grains of wheat that could already be clearly seen on these wheat stalks in front of him, trembling, reaching out his hand, gently stroking the wheat in front of him, and slowly said: “If the estimation is correct, then these wheat will be fully mature in about 20 days.”
Just now, Shen Mu had already accelerated the growth speed by 41 days.
Equal to a month and a half.
According to the normal growth rate of wheat, it would take at least another month and a half, that is, three months, for these wheat to fully mature.
But at this time, Manide had already come to a conclusion through the growth rate of these wheat, that is, the wheat planted by Shen Mu could not be treated according to the conventional wheat on the Calradia continent.
Because all the planted wheat is more vigorous, grows faster, and the growth cycle is obviously shorter.
It is as if Manide had seen the growth state of those wheat that were destined to have a great harvest in some years when the sunlight, rainfall, and temperature were quite perfect.
Wheat that grows in an extremely perfect posture.
So he gave the conclusion that in another 20 days, that is, two months, this wheat can be fully mature.
It can be harvested.
“I don't know why, this may also be your miracle, Lord Shen Mu.” Manide said seriously: “I found that just now, during the growth process of these wheat, there were patches of very fine green light spots injected into these wheat, and only then could these wheat grow more perfectly, and also shorten the growth time of these wheat.”
“Those green light spots?” Shen Mu also frowned slightly at this time. He also thought of the coolness coming from his heart as he released the ability to accelerate the growth of wheat.
At this moment, he was also thoughtful: "It seems that it is the amplification effect brought to me by the natural, pervasive consciousness in the spirit world."
Natural consciousness was a fragment of natural consciousness he obtained from that little druid.
Then it was controlled by his Mount \u0026 Blade system.
Before, he might not have understood why the Mount \u0026 Blade system could control it, but thinking about the various rewards he received after analyzing the hell rules, he could also understand that it must be after the Mount \u0026 Blade system analyzed the natural consciousness fragment that it could bring him some help.
For example, this power to assist the Mount \u0026 Blade rules in helping crops grow comes from the natural consciousness fragment.
This further increases the effect of the 'Natural Grain Blessing' rule power.
"Overall, it's still very good." Shen Mu didn't think much about it at this time, but instead communicated with the system again with his thoughts, and once again activated this rule power.
He directly increased the wheat growth rate by another 20 days with the power of this rule.
'Buzz!'
It was a flash of white light.
Of course, it was also mixed with emerald green light spots from the natural consciousness fragment, which in just over 20 seconds caused the wheat, which had already slightly bent over, to completely droop its heads.
And the originally lush green wheat field also began to turn golden yellow.
This represents that the wheat is already ripe and can be harvested.
As another breeze slowly blew, the wheat field, which had become golden, also began to rustle.
It even emitted a distinct wheat fragrance.
"This...this...this..."
Manid, who was just answering, paused a lot at this time, and didn't know what he should say.
He just stared wide-eyed at the plump grains of wheat in front of him that were already golden and about to burst, and his whole person didn't have any extra thoughts to think about.
When he gently picked off an ear of wheat that was about the thickness and length of an index finger, he gently used force to rub the wheat grains, still with bran, in the palm of his hand.
Moreover, he could already feel the dryness and hardness of the wheat grains staying in his palm.
"This wheat can indeed be harvested." Manid said subconsciously, his whole person said blankly: "This is a great harvest, an unprecedented great harvest."
In just a few minutes, this acre of wheat was completely ready for harvest.
This can no longer be said to be the level of three harvests a year.
If Shen Mu wanted to, then he could easily make this wheat mature countless times in a day.
Then it also means that these wheat can be harvested countless times.
For Manid, who came from an alternate historical world, and whose mind still retained the most basic normal time logic.
He didn't even dare to think about this kind of thing happening.
But it really appeared in front of him.
"Okay, let some people come and harvest these grains." Shen Mu turned his head at this time and spoke to the Holy Tree Knight and Swadian Sergeant who were following behind him to protect him.
After all, there are still 1,500 Swadian civilians in Deherim.
These are all civilian units.
Of course, they are usually responsible for harvesting grain and maintaining crops. Now it is only natural to let them come and harvest the wheat in this acre of wheat field.
In Deherim, 100 Swadian civilians quickly walked over with sickles in their hands.
Of course, this acre of wheat field actually doesn't need 100 Swadian civilians.
Ten civilians are enough.
However, they also heard from the Swadian Sergeant who went to deliver the message that the miracle performed by Lord Shen Mu, who they admired so much, had quickly made 1 acre of wheat field gain a harvest in a short period of time.
Therefore, many people clamored to come over.
These 100 Swadian civilians were still the more prestigious ones among them, who took the lead and ran over with sickles, which was considered to have won the quota to come and harvest wheat.
However, when they came to this acre of wheat field outside the east gate, each of them also widened their eyes and was extremely shocked.
Because compared to the surrounding wheat seedlings that had just emerged from the soil and revealed some finger-like seedlings.
Looking at this acre of wheat field again, it is lush, completely golden, and can be harvested, and the growth is quite good, which can be regarded as a great harvest.
The two sides just made a slight comparison.
It had already caused great shock in the hearts of these Swadian civilians who were used to the outside being wheat seedlings.
"This is really a miracle, this is really a miracle."
"This is definitely a miracle of Lord Shen Mu."
"This means that we will have a constant supply of food to eat in the future."
"This is too shocking."
These Swadian civilians are also living and breathing Mount \u0026 Blade human races. At this time, they are also whispering to each other in shock.
At the same time, the hands holding the sickles clenched subconsciously.
Their hearts beat faster, their heads began to empty, and they imagined a better life in the future, and they were as excited as Manid and couldn't control themselves.
In just a few minutes, they could obtain the wheat that would take three months to grow and mature in Calradia and be able to harvest.
This is a miracle.
This is a better life in the future.
After all, they are all farmers, and each of them is an ordinary person who came out of the countryside.
Of course, they are very clear about what kind of miracle it is to make wheat mature in a few minutes.
This means that they can have a constant supply of food to eat.
For any civilian.
For a farmer.
For the peasant class.
A constant supply of food to eat is comparable to the enjoyment of heaven, comparable to living in a paradise in reality.
"Okay, my friends, now is not the time to get to know each other. I think you should all take action, quickly harvest these wheat, and then process it, and transport it to the granary in the future."
Shen Mu clapped his hands at this time, making a crisp sound, interrupting the daze of these Swadian civilians.
Then he motioned for them to quickly harvest the wheat.
After all, in the following words, Shen Mu also planned to harvest the wheat and then plow the land and plant the wheat back into the ground again.
After all, after the harvest, of course, it needs to be replanted again.
Otherwise, where would the constant supply of food come from?
So these Swadian civilians immediately reacted, looking at Shen Mu with extremely reverent eyes, without saying much, picked up their sickles and walked towards the acre of wheat field, shouting one by one, skillfully starting to harvest the lush golden wheat.
In just over a quarter of an hour, the acre of wheat field was completely harvested.
After all, it is easy for 100 people to harvest an acre of land.
Manid had also recovered at this time, directing these Swadian civilians to transport the bundled wheat back to the warehouse.
The wheat also needs to be shelled, and then the remaining wheat stalks can be distributed as bedding.
And the old wheat stalks can also be used as kindling.
It can be said to be quite good things.
Moreover, the acre of wheat harvested after shelling is enough for about 50 Swadian soldiers to eat a full meal.
Although it is better than nothing, it is also a harvest.
After all, Shen Mu has the power to use the power of faith to speed up the growth time of wheat.
With accumulation, the food problem can be considered solved.
"At the same time, it has also been verified that, as I thought, as long as I use the power of faith, then I can get a constant supply of food." A smile appeared on the corner of Shen Mu's mouth: "Just like quickly building buildings, as long as there is a place of faith, the construction time can be accelerated, then a large number of buildings can be obtained."
However, at this time, Shen Mu also turned his head and glanced at the direction of Deherim: "Then now I have to verify the time it takes for the caravan to travel back and forth."
