Chapter 165 Looks Like I Have to Plant a Field First

Originally, Fangzheng thought that as long as the deal was settled and Nunnally was asked to buy those spirit crystals, he could sit at home happily and make money. but………

"That's all?"

Looking at the spirit crystal in front of him, which was less than ten yuan, Fang Zheng's face turned dark.

"I'm so sorry..."

Seeing Fangzheng's appearance, Nunnally also hurriedly apologized to him.

"I didn't know until I went to the Alchemist Association that there is a quota limit for the purchase of spirit crystals. I am only a junior alchemist, so I can only get these per month..."

"........."

What is the use of these broken spirit crystals? I'm afraid Fangzheng would have gained more than this if he hadn't gone to the forest sea and snow field to scan around for monsters. Moreover, the quality of these spirit crystals is not very good, and a rough calculation will only add dozens of points of crystal energy...

"Not even if you have money?"

Fangzheng has never seen someone who has money and can't be pushed by ghosts, but judging by Nunnali's expression, it seems that he really can't.

"OK then………"

Fangzheng could only accept this result helplessly.

"So, how can we get a large number of spirit crystals?"

"This... at least requires me to upgrade to an alchemist above level five..."

From Nunnally's words, Fangzheng finally figured out the upgrade system of the Alchemist Association. In the Alchemist Association, there are two ways to upgrade. One is simple manufacturing. The alchemist workshop manufactures potions of specified standards and quantities a year, and then the association buys them. Then earn points, and when you reach a certain amount, you can upgrade your level.

The other is creation. The job of an alchemist is to research and invent. If an alchemist can create a brand new invention that has market and application value, it can also be upgraded by the Alchemist Association. Not only that, if his invention is used and manufactured by many alchemists, then the points will be further increased.

"This is troublesome..."

After hearing Nunnally's answer, Fangzheng was speechless for a while. He originally thought that once he got the qualifications, he could rely on money to do whatever he wanted, but now it seemed that the other party had already had a similar experience, and they plugged the loopholes tightly. It is impossible to rely solely on trading, so what should I do? No way, farming upgrades.

Simply relying on the entrustment of the Alchemist Association to make it is definitely not enough. Let alone this alchemy studio is poor and has no equipment. It is impossible to raise the level at all.

Then the only thing left is to create a new invention, then send it to the Alchemist Association for evaluation, and then upgrade the level as soon as possible.

But...it's not easy.

"Ancestral secret recipe?"

Staring blankly at Fangzheng, Nunnali's face showed a hint of surprise.

"Sorry, there are no ancestral secret recipes in our family, my mother is just an ordinary alchemist..."

That's right, if this young lady had some secret recipe passed down from her ancestors, she wouldn't be in such a mess. Originally, Fangzheng thought she would have the fate of a protagonist, but now it seems that she is just a passerby heroine.

"So, we can only invent and create ourselves? It's not easy..."

While flipping through the catalog of the Alchemist Association in front of him, Fang Zheng also frowned. These alchemists are also frantic in their inventions and creations. They have made all kinds of pharmaceutical weapons, vehicles, power furnaces and other things. In the words of Founder World, there are patent barriers everywhere. , It makes people want to make a counterfeit reverse engineering...Huh? and many more!

After flipping through the "Patent Encyclopedia" in his hand, Fang Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he quickly opened the catalog, flipped through it again, and then, Fang Zheng discovered something.

Although on the surface, the inventions of these alchemists seem to be all-encompassing, there is one area that they have hardly dabbled in!

agriculture!

In the entire alchemist catalogue, Fang Zheng found that there were only two kinds of inventions related to agriculture, one had the effect similar to chemical fertilizers, and the other had the effect similar to pesticides. What surprised him was that when he asked Nunnally, she was told by Nunnally that both of them were invented by his mother!

It's all right!

Hearing Nunali's answer, Fang Zheng was taken aback. These are pesticides and fertilizers, and they are the only ones in this world. I don't even believe that you are not the richest man in the world! How can you get to this point? Are you afraid you are kidding me?

Looking at Fang Zheng's expression, Nunnally was obviously a little embarrassed, and then she explained it, which made Fang Zheng understand the reason.

Although the environment of this world is similar to that of the earth, the environment is much better than that of the earth, and the soil is extremely fertile. It can be said that crops can grow very well without special fertilization. As for pests and diseases... There is a small monster in the main world that specializes in devouring pests. As long as farmers raise them, they are as necessary as cattle, so there is not a big market for pesticides.

And more importantly, although these two inventions of Nunnally's mother have good effects, they are too expensive!

Nunnally's mother may have obsessive-compulsive disorder, so she completed these two inventions to perfection, and the materials used are also very advanced. Although the fertilizers and pesticides made from these materials have various The benefits and no pollution, but the problem is that it is expensive! If the farmers buy it back and use it, they will not earn enough for a year to post it back, and they are completely losing money!

"Hey……………"

After listening to Nunali's narration, Fangzheng also frowned, not knowing what to do for a while. Although he has the Jagged World in his hand, he can take out a bunch of high-tech products from there, but Fangzheng is very clear that the main world is not a fantasy world where the level of civilization is at the level of the Middle Ages in many novels, and he is in the sky arena. When I was there, I also learned a lot about the "intellectuals" of this world. If I want to fool them, I might as well fool the natives in the Middle Ages.

If a brand new system product that is completely different from the current system is produced, it will be hell if no one suspects it.

According to Nunnally, there is no market in this world for pesticides and fertilizers that traversers can use to pretend. From this point of view, if you want to break through the "patent barriers" of those alchemists, you have to work hard on hardware? But farm tool hardware can’t be done casually......

"Hey……………"

Fangzheng sighed again, why did he feel that he was in this kind of field, it would be better to go to the border to kill monsters, it was a waste of time, and in addition to the freezing weather, he had to bring a tent... huh?

Thinking of this, Fangzheng's eyes suddenly brightened.

That's right, how could I forget this!

Ordinary agricultural machinery is not easy to operate, but isn’t the greenhouse a good direction?

"Nuna Li."

"Yes, Master Ezio, what are your orders?"

Hearing Fangzheng's voice, Nunnally sat up straight in a hurry, and asked respectfully. She's not stupid either. Fangzheng asked so many questions just now, and she also knew that the other party wanted to improve her alchemist level so as to obtain more spirit crystal quotas. Nunnally is also very nervous now, because there is only a verbal agreement between her and this young man named "Ezio". Now she is really afraid that the other party will feel that the value is not enough and turn around and leave. If that is the case, then she will definitely not be able to collect the fees paid to the Alchemist Association. At that time, the mother's workshop will be...

"What do the farmers here do every winter?"

"winter?"

Nunnally obviously didn't expect that Fangzheng would ask herself such an inexplicable question, but she still answered after thinking about it.

"In winter... there is nothing for everyone to do. Some people will go hunting together in groups, and most people will stay at home and wait for the next spring..."

"If they can farm in winter, would these people be willing?"

"Can you farm in winter?"

Hearing this, Nunnally opened her mouth wide in surprise, and only after a while did she realize that she nodded vigorously.

"Of course, after all, everyone really has nothing else to do in winter, and hunting in the mountains is very dangerous. Many people are actually unwilling to do it, just because there is really nothing to do, and... there must be something to gain. .”

No matter which world, the peasant class is the worst group of people. Compared with the serfs in the Middle Ages, the main world is of course much better. Because the soil in this world is fertile, planting crops is more effective than using chemical fertilizers, so there is no need to worry about production reduction and famine, and the food grown is enough for a country people eat. But even so, the farmers in the main world still had very little income. According to Nunnally, many of them ventured up to the mountains to hunt in winter, just to get more mountain products to sell and make some money.

If there really was something good enough to farm in winter, these farmers would love it!

but………

"Can we make something like this?"

Nunnally obviously doesn't have much confidence in this. Changing the climate is something even a legendary mage can hardly do. She is just an alchemist!

"Of course, and it's very simple."

Fang Zheng expressed no pressure on Nunnally's question.

For such a simple thing as a greenhouse, a pile of information on the earth in the iron-blooded world, if you take it and copy it yourself, and then use alchemy to create an alien version, what difficulty is there?

only………

Looking at the girl in front of him, Fangzheng sighed helplessly.

Others start off in a different world with high technology, but when you start in a different world, do you really come to farm?

For a Zerg master who has millions of Zergs and is already engaged in an interstellar war, will this be too low?
