The Defeated Dragon

Spit it out, little guy.

Holding a restless rubber worm in his palm, Liszt stepped on the muddy water and came to a long-planned vacant rubber park—the rubber park will cultivate more than 10,000 mu in the future, so the distribution of the park is determined in advance.

The rubber worm opened its mouth, and a faint green light flew out.

It is a small seed that takes root and germinates immediately after landing, and then twigs, branches, and leaves grow at a speed visible to the naked eye, and gradually grows into a huge Cordyceps tree.

Such a dynamic picture of plant growth moved Liszt's heart: Seeds can grow into towering trees, and elf worms are conceived in this way...Then what is the magic fire in my body? , is there any connection between each other?

Spirits can be seen as growing from seeds.

If his guess is correct, the dragon will also be bred from the magic fire.

Then elves and dragons are bred from seeds, and their seeds are obviously not ordinary seeds, but condensed by magic power-the seeds of elf cordyceps also have the function of ordinary plant seeds, and it is probably impossible to grow magic fire seeds Germinate in the ground.

I hope it won't germinate in my heart, treat me as a soil to absorb nutrients, suck up my vindictiveness, and breed itself into a fire dragon.

His mind was active as the new rubber tree, Cordyceps, grew.

For a while, I compared the similarities and differences between elf seeds and magic tinder; for a while, I thought that human beings are developed from fertilized eggs, which can also be regarded as seeds; for a while, I concluded that all life probably originated from seeds; It does not seem to develop from a seed.

When she was born, she was in the shell, except for the lack of legs below the knee, all other body parts were fully developed.

Perhaps, Ah Ke was originally a shell?

Just like elf worms do not exist, ordinary plants suddenly mutate, and elf worms are born; sea monsters may not exist at all, and shells suddenly mutate, and a sea monster is born.

Such an idea is a bit weird.

He doesn't think Ake is like a shell. The meat inside the shell has no beauty at all: It's just how Ake's shell was formed, and where did she come from? If I can solve this mystery , maybe I can breed new sea monsters in batches.

Although Ake is still underage and still receiving training, her role is obviously huge.

She discovered Nami, she discovered the kelp worm, she discovered the atoll, Pearl Lake and black giant clam, she also discovered the pink conch, she rescued Chris Truth, green caterpillar, green head She discovered the duck, and she also attracted the six-headed sea snake.

Basically, the smog task rewards related to the ocean are inseparable from A Ke's figure-after all, Liszt is not an aquatic creature.

Knights can conquer the earth, and the sky in the future, but the ocean, I am afraid that even dragon knights cannot conquer it—except for dragon knights riding water dragons, water dragons can definitely roam the sea at will.

I didn't wander in the ocean of thoughts for a long time.

Cordyceps have been installed.

Liszt put away the calm rubber worm and began to look at the new rubber tree Cordyceps. He found that this Cordyceps was completely different from the previous two Cordyceps. It grew bigger, with a thicker trunk and more branches. Especially its leaves are very exaggerated, bigger than banana leaves.

Bear no fruit.

Probably like ordinary rubber trees, rubber can be harvested from the trunk.

Probably the biggest variation of this new Cordyceps is its leaves. I'll pick a leaf and study it first. Liszt carefully tore off a leaf with magic power.

The magic power quickly dissipated and became an ordinary leaf.

From the fracture at the root of the leaf, a small amount of rubber can be seen oozing out, which proves that the new rubber tree can still produce rubber, and has not lost this ability-in Liszt’s view, the value of rubber can be compared to magic medicine, in case rubber is produced Losing ability is definitely a failure mutation.

It's quite strong for such a big leaf. He tugged at the leaf,

Not torn, Can it be used as a fan, or... a packaging bag? It's like making zongzi, wrapping delicacies with its leaves? I always feel that such a function does not meet the value of the rubber tree.

...

Place the new rubber tree Cordyceps.

Liszt's next focus is to complete the new smog task - hoarding enough food for 10,000 people to survive the winter.

But soon he found a serious problem: It's not October yet, and the winter is from mid-December to mid-February. When will I stock up enough food to complete the task? Start stocking up now? he said. I'm not sure if the food I'm hoarding now can be considered winter food.

However, it must be done first, and there is no way to hoard enough food in a hurry.

Under the condition of ensuring basic food and clothing, a young and strong man consumes about 600 catties of grain a year. Subtract the surplus consumed by the old, the weak, women and children, and then calculate the extra consumption of the knights, and you can get an approximation - a single leader needs to consume 2 catties of food every day.

Ten thousand people need 20,000 catties of grain a day, which is 10 tons.

The grain needed by 10,000 people for two months is 600 tons.

From now on, I have to find a way to buy grain from all over Coral Island every day, and store 3 tons a day. By December, I can store about 100 tons; the self-produced food in the territory can also store 100 tons besides food consumption; and then Adding the marinating of meat and seafood, it will not be a problem to store another 100 tons... There is still a gap of 300 tons.

The 300 tons had to be purchased from the outer islands.

The price paid is definitely not low.

Now the income from flower brewing has been mortgaged until next year, and the income from black tulips, flower soap, and rubber is barely enough to maintain the construction of the territory.

To buy food again, gold coins must be raised again.

If there is no other way, start selling black pearls and see if the market is flocking to black pearls smaller than the size of a sea bowl. When he sold them to Levi's, a fist-sized one sold for hundreds of gold coins.

Now with more and more black pearls.

The price will definitely drop accordingly. Of course, no matter how low the drop is, it will definitely be more valuable than the white pearls produced by Dagong’s cultivation of pearl oysters in Tranquility Lake. White pearls can only calm the mind, while black pearls can not only calm the mind, but also dispel Wind attribute magic.

It is also bigger and has more magic power.

Ten times the price, it can definitely be sold! Now the large black giant clams are no longer found in Pearl Lake, but there are still a lot of small black giant clams. If you just catch a batch, you can earn gold coins... I don't need to worry at all. The territory's finances, I have no money but I have specialty products!

So after returning to Huahua Town, he immediately took a few samples of black pearls and rushed to Tulip Fort to discuss the black pearl trade with the Levi's couple.

If there is no market for Coral Island, sister-in-law Luo Liya can sell it to Golden Island.

I believe that the noble lady on the Golden Island will pay a lot of gold coins for the black pearl.
