I studied abroad in modern times

In the city of Banshan, smoke from cooking fires wafted from every household, and even the wind on the mountainside was filled with the sweet aroma of fish.

The sound of children's laughter echoed from the river valley to the top of the mountain.

Xiaoqing hummed a song and walked into the temple with a smile. She knelt on the mat and kowtowed to the statue three times sincerely before standing up to clean the temple. She chattered like she was chatting:

"Lord Thunder God, it's been a long time since we caught so many fish."

"We can't finish them! They are going to smoke them and keep them."

"We haven't been so happy in Banshan City for a long time!"

"..."

It can be seen that she is very happy, and she keeps talking.

Xiaoqing first said that no one has starved to death in the city in the past two months.

She also said that she was stuffed with two pieces of meat by a neighbor's child on the street just now. They were sticky, but they tasted delicious.

Her words were confusing and there was no point.

Zheng Faben was checking the Tiangong points on the Book of Conferred Gods.

In the past three days, the Tiangong points have increased a lot, and have exceeded 3,000 points.

One reason is that he gave the river valley three days of sunny days according to the "weather forecast" in the Book of Conferred Gods.

Another reason is that people in Banshan City were really hungry in the first half of the month, and many frail elderly people may not be able to hold on.

The fish and shrimp harvested in these three days may have saved many lives.

Adding the two together, the Tiangong points increased faster than being struck by the thunder of heaven.

While calculating, he listened to Xiaoqing's words, and he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

Then he heard Xiaoqing continue:

"But they don't dare to eat too much. I heard from Sister Hong that they are going to smoke the fish and keep it. Eat it sparingly, and there will be no problem eating it for half a year."

Zheng Fa was stunned and couldn't help but think of the bacon at home.

Pickled for the New Year, one piece of meat can be eaten for half a year...

Xiao Qing was still chattering:

"They said that they would send it to you first when it is ready."

Zheng Fa didn't know what to say: "Didn't I say I don't want offerings?"

"I did." Xiao Qing was also a little depressed: "But if they don't send this, what can they send?"

"..."

Outside the door, dense footsteps sounded.

There were more than a dozen people outside the temple carrying more than a dozen bamboo baskets, which were full of dried fish.

I don't know if they understand Zheng Fa's love of quietness, or if they are afraid that Xiao Qing will refuse.

A group of people put down the bamboo baskets, kowtowed twice outside the temple door and ran away.

They didn't give Xiao Qing a chance to speak.

"Master Thunder God..." Xiao Qing stared at the bamboo basket on the ground, her mouth wide open: "This..."

She walked over and looked at the dried fish in the basket one by one:

"They sent the biggest fish to you, Master..."

"They sent at least 30% of the fish caught in the past three days..."

"This... Master, should I still give it to those grandfathers?"

Zheng Fa pondered for a moment and said to Xiao Qing: "Give them some of it, and I have something for you to do for the other part."

"Master, what do you want?"

"Go find a few people who are most familiar with mushrooms in the mountains. I want to ask them something."

Xiao Qing walked away in a daze.

Zheng Fa looked at her back as she walked away, thinking about his plan - to obtain Tiangong points, in addition to mastering the remaining two thunder methods, it is to nourish the people.

If it were other cultivators, they would probably focus on the direction of immortal methods.

But Zheng Fa had long realized that in addition to immortal methods, directly developing productivity could greatly change the lives of this group of people.

Even now he needs a lot of Tiangong points, so of course he has to master Lei Fa.

But Zheng Fa did not intend to give up this idea.

He had consulted Teacher Tian in modern times. In places like Banshan City, there is a lot of rain, humidity and little sunshine, so farming is not very successful.

And the foundation of Banshan City is too poor, and any high-cost industry is difficult to promote.

As for other places where he was buried, it was even worse than Banshan City.

There is a technology that can be developed according to local conditions-edible fungus farming.

Edible fungus farming is actually not a very new technology. There are some corresponding records in the ancient classics now, but the output is extremely low.

Soon, Xiaoqing found several men in the city. They were all veterans who were used to picking mountain products and were very familiar with the types and habits of mushrooms in the mountains.

After Zheng Fa asked a few questions, he ordered them to find some rotten wood with mushrooms growing on it, and asked them to find some sawdust and grass.

Xiaoqing and everyone didn't quite understand what Master Lei Shen wanted to do, but they all did it obediently.

Zheng Fa thought about what Teacher Tian said.

There are actually two biggest differences between ancient and modern edible fungus cultivation technology:

One is the strain purification technology.

The other is the sterile environment.

If these two are not well controlled, they will produce miscellaneous bacteria and reduce the yield of edible fungi.

Zheng Fa asked them to put the sawdust and grass into a dozen pottery jars according to different types and place them in front of the statue.

This is the most basic culture medium that Teacher Tian taught him.

Zheng Fa asked Xiao Qing and others to leave first. The spiritual power rotated along the trajectory of Yun Yu Lei and sent out a beam of ultraviolet light towards the pile of pottery jars.

Of course, there is no sterilization technology in Banshan City...

But today's Yun Yu Lei can emit lasers!

Strain purification requires more modern means, but the main thing is to use microscopes to select the most suitable strains:

Coincidentally, Zheng Fa also has a Dongxu Spirit Eye!

Even if there are miscellaneous bacteria, Zheng Fa can kill them in time.

"You wait and divide these fish, and Xiao Qing, don't get close to this place in the future."

What Zheng Fa has to do now is to see which culture medium works best and select the most productive strains.

Xiaoqing and others left the temple in a daze.

"Xiao Qing, what does this Thunder God master... want to do?"

Xiao Qing didn't quite understand. After thinking hard for a long time, he suddenly clapped his hands and said:

"My grandfather said that Mr. Thunder God will consecrate the light!"

"Consecrate the mushroom?" Others were stunned: "What can you do?"

"How do I know?"

"What about the light?"

"That light cannot be seen by mortals!"

Xiao Qing spoke plausibly.

Stop talking about that person.

Zheng Fa thought what she said was quite reasonable...

…

There have been a lot more monks in the Hundred Treasures Hall these days.

They were talking while looking at the spiritual materials on the jade tablet.

"Let me tell you, if it weren't for the Hundred Treasures Palace and the ability to exchange for some spiritual materials, I would have left the Heaven Monument."

"Who says it's not the case? With those two here, do we still have our share in this monument?"

"Don't talk about us, didn't you see that Yan Wushuang didn't come this time? I'm afraid she was hit by Fairy Lingye and Zheng Fa."

As soon as he said this, everyone nodded.

Entering the Tianbei this time, those who were interested discovered that Yan Wushuang did not come at all.

There are rumors that Yan Wushuang has given up on the Tianbei.

"What do those genius things have to do with us? It took me several months to save up one hundred heavenly skills." A man shook his head and said: "It's not a loss to exchange for a ten-year purple electric flower."

"I have a little more heavenly skill. I have saved one hundred and twenty, and I can exchange it for a piece of lightning-struck wood."

"The Heavenly Skill Points required by Lightning Strike Wood are quite expensive. Junior brother, if you want to practice treasures, I recommend this to you. You can save ten Heavenly Skill Points."

Because there is no competition, the relationship between this group of people has become very harmonious. You and I started to discuss each other, thinking about how to save Tiangong points and exchange more spiritual materials for their needs.

A figure walked in from outside the hall.

As soon as everyone's voices stopped, they all looked at the person coming.

Who is this person if it’s not Xiao Yuying?

Xiao Yuying did not jump in line, but waited behind them, as if she was ready to wait until they finished exchanging the spiritual materials.

But since she was a Nascent Soul cultivator and had a good reputation, the people in front of her didn't dare to delay. They quickly changed the spiritual materials they wanted and gave up their position to Xiao Yuying.

Xiao Yuying nodded to them, walked to the jade monument, and began to browse the types of spiritual materials, as if thinking about what she should exchange the Heavenly Power Points for.

The other monks looked at each other and stopped, looking at her curiously.

She didn't care, she just moved her fingers around on the jade tablet, sometimes stopping on this spiritual material, sometimes stopping on that spiritual material, as if she was thinking about which one to choose, as if she had difficulty choosing.

But there was an inexplicable feeling of enjoyment and indulgence in her expression. It seemed that she had to look at every spiritual material for a long time, and she was carefully calculating every divine skill point.

She has a lot of talent, but she chooses slowly, so it takes a long time.

The monks on the side were watching with soreness in their hearts - with so many of them, the total amount of spiritual materials they could redeem was less than half of what Xiao Yuying could...

When Zheng Fa walked into the Hundred Treasures Hall, Xiao Yuying was still wandering between the two spiritual materials.

Zheng Fa glanced at her, then at the monks on the side, bowed his hands towards them, and waited behind Xiao Yuying.

The expression on Xiao Yuying's face was very familiar to him. She was the kind of woman who spent a long time shopping on the shopping app, looking at 800 sets of clothes, but ended up not buying any of them.

They probably like this process...

After a long time, Xiao Yuying seemed to have not decided which one to change. She seemed a little embarrassed and turned to Zheng Fa and said, "You go first."

"It's okay, I'll just wait."

"I have to think about it again." Xiao Yuying insisted: "No delay."

Zheng Fa nodded gratefully to Xiao Yuying and said, "Then I will do it as soon as possible."

Everyone watched him walk to the jade monument.

Zheng Fa first selected two spiritual materials needed to practice the secret method of "Shen Xiao's True Method of Controlling Thunder".

Then, Zheng Fa turned the jade tablet to the first page, which was the page with the cheapest spiritual materials. He clicked from top to bottom with his fingers, not missing any one.

He now wants to raise his own hibiscus trees, and Lei Tian needs a lot of spiritual materials - and he doesn't choose at all, buying whatever is large or cheap.

His movements are quite as heroic as going to a restaurant and telling the waiter, "Please give me a menu."

Behind him, Xiao Yuying watched this scene, her lips gradually pursed.

Several monks on the side looked at Zheng Fa's operation in amazement. Then they saw Xiao Yuying's sour face. They looked at each other and suddenly felt much better:

We are sour, and Fairy Lingye is also sour, so aren’t we on the same level as Fairy Lingye?

Zheng Fa quickly finished selecting the spiritual materials, looked back at Xiao Yuying and said with a smile: "I've finished changing, Fairy Xiao, come on."

Xiao Yuying glanced at him silently and placed her finger on the monument.

He muttered: "I'm not in the mood anymore."
