If we say that the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill is a high-level resource, then Spirit Rice is a basic resource.
Both basic and high-level resources are very important and indispensable.
Without basic resources, it’s impossible to accumulate power, and without high-level resources, there’s no way to enhance strength or increase limits.
After returning home, the village chief gathered all the Martial Artists and emphasized the importance of Spirit Rice; he even let a few Martial Artists try the Spirit Rice given by Wang Sheng.
“How is the effect?”
The village chief had tried it too, but because he wasn’t a Martial Artist, he didn’t have much of a reaction.
“The effect is very good. If we have such Spirit Rice, it will be greatly useful even for a Third Grade Martial Artist,” judged Li Yongfeng, who had become a Third Grade Martial Artist, “If we don’t have the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill, just eating this can also bring progress.”
“Same for a Fifth Grade Martial Artist, regularly eating this Spirit Rice and reaching higher realms is not an issue at all. Of course, it requires long-term consumption. This kind of Spirit Rice, if it doesn’t have a particularly long growth cycle, might even be more important than the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill.”
Xu Qu, as the strongest Martial Artist in the village apart from Wang Sheng and Yue, possessed such discernment.
He had completely integrated into the village, so he participated in all village matters.
“It takes a little over a year to grow, but with enough Bone Powder, it should be possible to reduce it to a year.”
“That short?!”
Everyone was surprised, not because it was long, but because it was short.
A little over a year was unexpectedly short, allowing this kind of Spirit Rice to be a constant resource.
Hearing this, Xu Qu sighed and said, “From what I know, those great powers that train Martial Artists have such things with short cultivation cycles and decent effects. With such resources, those powers can thrive continuously and have sufficient resources to train Martial Artists. I didn’t expect Qingshan Village to have such a thing too.”
Great powers that train Martial Artists definitely need a lot of resources.
Any power worth mentioning basically owns something like Spirit Rice.
However, those resources are obtained after countless years of searching and cultivation. It’s surprising that Qingshan Village, a small village, has achieved it all at once.
Xu Qu’s words made everyone present place more importance on the existence of Spirit Rice.
These are all things that can accumulate power!
Finally, the village chief spoke, “We definitely need to plant the Spirit Rice, the question is just how much.”
“Why not start by planting three to four acres to test? If the results are good, next year we can try to plant more, considering there are also other people in the village who need food.”
“That works. If it’s not enough, we can just expand the paddy fields. With the water wheels provided by Yun Sheng, it’s quite convenient now.”
The group quickly settled the matter in a few words.
There are many people in the village, not all can be used for planting Spirit Rice.
Unless there is a certain amount of food accumulated and the yield of Spirit Rice is beyond expectations.
After deciding, the village chief finalized the decision.
“When this batch of rice is harvested, let’s plant the Spirit Rice directly, Yun Sheng said that once it grows, it’s hardly affected by the environment.”
“Okay!”
So, the plan to plant Spirit Rice was set.
The village chief then started discussing other matters.
“Shuwen, did you find the thing you were looking for?”
Wang Shuwen stood up and said, “I’m sorry, village chief, although I have some clues, I haven’t found the exact location yet. But based on the book Mr. Yue provided, there should be Iron Ore in the mountains.”
Although Li Yongfeng, the County Magistrate, helped in collecting Iron Ore, Wang Sheng still wanted to find an ore mine.
Originally, there wasn’t much hope.
But with Yue, it was different.
Yue’s Stargazing Skill was not simple.
Aside from observing destiny, using it to find dragon lines or analyze geographical features isn’t a problem.
Like those Feng Shui masters skilled in evaluating the geographical environment, Wang Sheng had an elder in his previous life who could roughly guess the surrounding terrain just by looking at a mountain, which was quite impressive.
Unfortunately, Wang Sheng at that time didn’t learn it.
However, with Yue present, it was no longer a difficult problem.
Yue had soon found a possible location for an ore vein, but only gave out an area, the specific location still needs to be searched.
When they do these kinds of tasks, they always just give a hint, never really specifying the details.
After Wang Sheng told the village chief about this, the village chief listed it as a task, and eventually, Wang Shuwen took on the task, and has been searching for over two months now.
He hasn’t found it yet, but there has been some progress.
“Alright, having clues is good. Yun Sheng rarely asks for favors, but this task must be done well, and if really found, it would benefit the village.”
“Don’t worry, village chief, I’ll do my best.” Wang Shuwen was naturally going to work hard, having been living outdoors and traveling for long periods recently.
With his wife taking care of things at home, he was at ease.
“Do you guys have anything else?”
Every time he gathered the Martial Artists in a rush, the village chief would first discuss matters and then let the Martial Artists talk.
He always handled matters very well, which kept things in the village running smoothly.
“Village chief, it seems that the Demon Beasts around the village are increasing. Although they aren’t as dangerous as wolf packs, we still need to be cautious and strengthen our defenses.”
The speaker, Li Yongfeng, was the captain of the village’s Martial Artists, mainly responsible for patrolling.
