Chapter 11 Seeds
"Senior Chen, what is the price of Linghe rice now?"
After the person in front of him bought rice and left, Zhou Changwang asked the middle-aged stall owner in front of him directly.
This stall owner was actually familiar with him. At the beginning, he was an apprentice with a spiritual plant master named Sun in the Lingzhi Hall. The other party had taken him to study in the spiritual field of a spiritual plant master, and the senior Chen in front of him, Chen Yushu, was the apprentice of that spiritual plant master at that time.
Of course, if it was just that, the two would not have much intersection.
But later, the spiritual plant master had to go out for a period of time because of something, so he asked the spiritual plant master named Sun to arrange some apprentices to come and assist his apprentice, that is, the senior Chen in front of him, to take care of the spiritual field.
Zhou Changwang was also one of the apprentices who were arranged to come.
After a few visits, they became familiar with each other.
Later, he left the Lingzhi Hall and came to the Sanxiu Market to buy rice. He happened to meet Chen Yushu, and the two of them became friends.
Of course, after all, there is a certain gap in their cultivation status, so this friendship is not deep.
"One piece of Linghe rice is eleven catties of low-grade Lingshi."
Chen Yushu replied casually.
"Eleven catties? Hasn't it always been ten catties?"
Zhou Changwang was stunned, but he didn't feel happy.
Instinctively, he felt something was wrong.
"It was ten catties before, but now all the major Ling rice shops sell one piece of low-grade Lingshi for ten and a half catties. If I don't lower the price, I won't be able to sell it."
Chen Yushu shook his head and explained.
"Senior, do you mean that someone is lowering the price?"
Zhou Changwang's heart trembled.
Now the Linghe rice in his spiritual field is about to mature, but the Linghe rice in the market is falling in price at this time. This is not a good thing for him and all spiritual farmers.
"Isn't it always like this? The spiritual rice is about to be harvested, so the price is pushed down. When the spiritual farmers sell the spiritual rice, the price will go up again.
It's like this almost every year. I have planted more than ten acres of spiritual fields myself. If I'm in a hurry to sell them, I can only accept this price.
Now it's eleven pounds for one low-grade spiritual stone. It's estimated that in a few days, it will drop to twelve pounds or even thirteen pounds for one low-grade spiritual stone.
If you're not in a hurry to buy, you can wait for two days."
Chen Yushu said calmly.
As a rice merchant, he is very familiar with the fluctuation of rice prices.
He is familiar with Zhou Changwang, so he said a few more words, otherwise he would not have the heart to chat with others.
"I know, thank you for telling me, Senior Chen."
Zhou Changwang bowed his hands, and then hurriedly handed over the spiritual stone, "Give me eleven pounds of spiritual rice, this is the spiritual stone."
He bought the spiritual rice to improve his strength as soon as possible, so he naturally would not deliberately wait for two days.
As for the price fluctuation of spiritual rice, it is really not something that a low-level spiritual farmer like him can influence.
He just felt that his income was about to decrease, and his mood became heavy.
"Okay!"
Chen Yushu nodded, and then weighed 11 kilograms of spiritual rice and handed it to Zhou Changwang. However, he thought about it and said, "I remember that you learned spiritual plants from Uncle Sun, right? Uncle Sun is best at cultivating seeds of spiritual plants.
It just so happens that I have a few seeds here, which I got by chance. If you can cultivate them and germinate, I will definitely reward you handsomely."
As he said, he patted his waist, and when a faint spiritual light flashed, he turned his hand and saw three little finger-sized, pitch-black seeds appear on his palm.
Storage bag!
Zhou Changwang looked at the other party's waist, and a trace of envy appeared on his face.
This is a storage treasure for cultivators. Even the lowest-level storage bag costs more than one thousand low-grade spiritual stones.
However, despite his envy, he quickly set his eyes on the three seeds, showing a hint of curiosity on his face, and asked, "What kind of spiritual plant seeds are these?"
"Spiritual rice seeds.
I got them by chance in Tianque Mountain.
It is said that the place was once the residence of a certain immortal cultivation family, but because of a war, it has long been reduced to ruins, and even the spiritual veins that originally existed in Tianque Mountain have been dispersed.
As for what kind of spiritual rice seeds these seeds are, we will only know after we plant them.
Although I have several suspicions, I cannot confirm any of them.
It's a pity that these seeds have been sealed for too long. They have been out of touch with spiritual energy for a long time, and their vitality is almost cut off. I have tried many methods, but I can't make them sprout again. "
Chen Yushu did not hide it, and then said seriously: "So, if you can cultivate these seeds to sprout, then I won't let you waste your efforts. I am willing to give you a thousand low-grade spiritual stones, or treasures worth no less than a thousand low-grade spiritual stones, including a storage bag. "
Obviously, he also noticed Zhou Changwang's eyes when he looked at his storage bag just now.
"I can only try it. "
Zhou Changwang said with a frown.
His family knew his own business. Even a spiritual plant cultivator like Chen Yushu, who was at the sixth level of the Qi training period, could not make the seeds germinate. He did not think that he could do it now.
Unless he could improve the birth-inducing technique to a minor success, or even a major success...
As for what the other party said about learning from the spiritual plant master surnamed Sun, there were more than ten people who followed him to learn at the beginning. The other party treated them as free handymen at most, but did not teach them much about spiritual plant skills. Whether it was the cleaning technique, the spiritual rain technique, the birth-inducing technique or the Gengjin finger, he learned them from the spiritual plant hall with his own spiritual stones...
Later, after the five-year term expired, the other party dismissed him as promised, but had no intention of formally accepting him as a disciple...
"Then wait for your good news."
Chen Yushu said without saying much, waving his hand.
Obviously, he didn't have much hope for Zhou Changwang. Anyway, he had a lot of this kind of spiritual rice seeds in his storage bag. He had also found many spiritual plant masters to try to cultivate and germinate them, but they all failed. No matter how big his heart was, he would not put all his hopes on Zhou Changwang, a low-level spiritual farmer who was only in the second level of Qi training.
It was just the idea of trying it out.
Hearing this, Zhou Changwang had to take the seeds and spiritual rice, then bowed and said, "Then Senior Chen, goodbye."
Then, he turned around and went out of the casual cultivator market, but he was thinking about Chen Yushu's intention in his mind.
But soon, he smiled helplessly. It was useless to think more, because no matter what the other party's intention was, he could only accept it. Besides, it was just a commission. From the other party's final look, it was obvious that he had no hope of completing the commission. Why should he bother himself?
Maybe the other party just wanted to successfully cultivate the spiritual rice seeds?
At least he could feel that the other party had no ill will towards him.
I think so.
He is a spiritual farmer in the second level of Qi training, penniless, who would bother to pay attention to him?
He is just looking for trouble.
