“How many times have I told you? Taro is fast at absorbing water. You have to increase the amount of water according to its size. Stone heart fruits are mild and benign. You have to pay attention to preventing heat and shade. You have to use non-alkaline fertilizers. How many times do I have to tell you? “You Bunch of blockheads, you’ve been taught three times by a cow. Are you still professional flower farmers?”
Qiao Jiao Xiang cursed at the gardeners under him!
The gardeners lowered their heads and shivered with grievance, not daring to retort.
Looking at this bunch of docile farmers who admitted their mistakes but still messed things up, she wanted to pry their heads open to see if they were filled with feces!
After Qiao Jiao Xiang was tricked by the AI, she decisively borrowed 500,000 points to contract the southeast land that the AI bragged about being the best developed land. Later, she found out that the AI said that to everyone…
According to the agreement, the first six months of the land would be interest-free, and from the seventh month onwards, they would be charged interest. In other words, in order to smoothly and punctually start paying interest, players could only choose one season of ripe crops for the first time, and some precious products that required one year or even a few years to ripen. Players were temporarily forced to be excluded under the pressure of interest.
This way, the pressure of interest on the players in the early stages naturally had both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage was that it solved most of their choice syndrome, allowing them to decisively choose crops that were more practical and produced more in the early stages.
The disadvantage was that these crops that grew faster would require more effort in maintenance. This was actually not a big problem for an elven player, however, once the scale was expanded, it was easy for many problems to arise when these human flower growers were required to operate it.
These flower growers had a lot of planting experience, but their thinking was also very rigid, causing them to react very slowly when faced with these new products. For example, the taro seed, one size per day.., by the fifth day of planting, it was already almost the size of a puppy, and the amount of water it absorbed was also doubled and increased. This made many flower growers feel afraid, but they could not adapt to the increased amount of water at the same time, as a result, many of the taro plants in the base almost died!
While the scent of foot-picking made them jump in anger, the flower growers also felt wronged. They had never seen such a strange breed in their entire lives? The amount of water changed day by day, and the complicated habits of other breeds made their heads hurt even more.
After receiving the feedback, foot-picking finally calmed down. She realized that she had bitten off more than she could chew. Originally, she wanted to diversify to make herself more competitive in the market in the future, but now that she thought about it, it seemed that it was difficult to cultivate a variety of products at the same time.
These flower farmers were different from their elves. Elves had a natural sensitivity to the growth of many plants. Moreover, they could communicate with plants. Naturally, they could quickly get used to their habits and know what these plants needed. However, these flower farmers who had only undergone ordinary strengthening clearly did not have this ability. They could only rely on experience…
And experience was often something that needed to be slowly accumulated… …
After thinking for two days, she finally decided not to waste any more time. For the time being, she had removed a large number of varieties from the base that were being tested. She only kept taro-scented fruits and stone heart fruits, but even so.., these blockheads were often prone to making mistakes.
But fortunately, it was at least much better than the complete mess before. They slowly reacted and estimated that they would be able to completely adapt to it in a few days…
Thinking of this, pickle incense prayed in her heart. When the first batch of products were shipped out, they must not be cold. They did not want to sell them at a high price, but at least they could sell them at a lower price so that they would not rot in the ground…
Although the efficiency of planting fewer varieties was increased, the fault tolerance rate was greatly reduced. She had asked around and found that most of the players in the base grew different things. At that time, who would be able to laugh at the end would really depend on their looks…
Thinking of this, she could not help but look at the rather good-looking taro xiangsheng in the base, she muttered in a low voice, “I hope that Grandpa Lu’s speculation is reliable. If I suffer a great loss this time, even if he has soap to protect his body, I will throw him into the septic tank under the base! ! !”
——–
The old farmers had been working obediently under their new master for the past few days, but to be honest, after staying for a few days, they unexpectedly felt that the situation… Seemed.. … Was better than they had imagined.
Although they had to serve some very strange crops every day, the labor intensity was not high. It was far from the life they had imagined of whipping and working hard in the dark mine pit and suffering abuse.
Taking care of these strange crops was indeed more delicate than the flowers they used to grow, but the labor intensity was indeed not high. Moreover, the living environment was good. Everyone on the farm had their own small house, although it was a little small, but the design was exquisite. It was far better than the rotten wooden house they used to live in.
Moreover, they had enough rest time to accompany their children every day. Moreover, the new owner had also found their surviving wives. Most of the old farmers were now a family.
The disadvantage was that their master did not allow them to leave the farm they belonged to. Other than farming, their free time would be a little boring. Their food was also too simple. It was a kind of transparent mucus that tasted tasteless, however, they were surprisingly full. They would not feel hungry even after drinking a mouthful of it for the whole day. It was quite miraculous, but it was tasteless. After a long time, they always felt that there was something missing…
However, this already made them very satisfied with their current situation. Compared to becoming the slaves of the orcs, the pressure under the hands of these unknown forces seemed to be much less than when they were farmers. They were also doing their old job. It was just that they used to work for the landlord, but now they had a new boss…
Thinking about it… … It seemed… … not so bad… …
I just don’t know what those orc bastards who were caught with them are doing?
Those damn bastards better go to those dark mines to do that kind of deadly work, this is their retribution! !
The old farmers in the farmlands cursed those orcs, but in fact… Their curses actually came true… …
Most of the orcs in the base were indeed working in the mine.
Since seer decided to open up the grazing land again after a period of time, the base did its best to replenish the mining population. The captured gnolls and ogres were sent to the mine to help with the work.
However, the situation was terrible at the beginning. Mining energy ores was a delicate job and could not be done recklessly because the pickaxes used to mine energy ores were specially made and very fragile. This was related to the attributes of the energy ores.
The energy contained in the energy ores was unstable and extremely sensitive to ordinary metal materials. It was also very sensitive to external energy interference. Therefore, the pickaxes had to be made of crystal ore materials that did not conduct energy, this was also the reason why the energy ores could only be dug by manual labor and not by robots. Using robots was extremely easy to cause unstable explosions in the energy ores.
Not only robots, but arcane golems and necromancers’puppets were also prone to accidents as long as they had energy cores, this was also the fundamental reason why the miners were not extinct in a large civilization like the federation.
However, it was clear that these simple-minded ogres were not suitable for this kind of delicate work. They often broke the pickaxe when they used force. The gnolls were agile but had little strength, so they were very slow in moving the ores.
In the end, the players traded with each other to form a fixed combination of three wolves and one demon. The gnolls were responsible for mining, while the ogres were responsible for moving the ores onto the harvesters.
However, this efficiency was very average. Three such combinations were only equivalent to the efficiency of one Green Titan.
Moreover, there were not many orcs captured in the base this time…
This made seer somewhat anxious. There was not much time left to deliver the goods to wine god Lord. If he failed to fulfill the basic terms of the contract, that simple-looking senior would definitely not let him slip through easily.
It seemed that while widening the player passageway, he had to think of a way to catch more orcs… …
