Ye Ming selected three of them for planting experiments. These three types are first-class and first-class longevity rice, first-class and second-class crystal sweet potatoes and old vegetables. Long-lived rice, after being planted, will germinate and break through the soil in one day, take root and grow leaves in two days, and grow into a solid tree in three days. After another three days, it will bloom and bear fruit, and the husks of long-lived rice will form.

Ordinary rice is only the size of a grain of sand, but this long-lived rice is as huge as an egg, hanging on the top like a fruit, waiting for the owner to pick it.

Long-lived rice only absorbs the top three spiritual energy, so Ye Ming chose a plain with a large underground spiritual mine for planting. He took out three acres of land, personally arranged the spirit gathering circle, dug water canals, and finally sowed and fertilized. The fertilizer he applied was not the manure used in ordinary crops, but the powder made from the bones of ancient ferocious beasts. The value of this thing was very high.

Next, he stood by the field, motionless. A day later, the rice seeds germinated one after another, and the tender buds pushed through the soil, and then the branches and leaves grew. After a day, it grew into a dwarf tree with a height of half a person. The leaves were like crystals, green and tender, exuding a faint fragrance.

On the third day, white jade-like flowers grew, and the fragrance was so overwhelming that one could smell it hundreds of miles away. Then the flowers fall, and the husk grows, at first it is the size of a finger, then it grows bigger and bigger, and finally becomes as huge as an egg.

In this way, after waiting for another three days, the rice husk turned golden yellow, and it would fall to the ground with a light touch. Ye Ming sat withered for more than ten days before he saw the rice ripen. He reached out to pick one off, and tore open the shell with his hands, revealing a piece of crystal-like rice with natural runes on the rice flesh. The divine light floated slightly, and a delicate fragrance rushed to his face.

He took a bite, and it melted in his mouth, turning into a clear stream, entering his stomach, and then quickly turning it into energy. He raised his eyebrows, and said in surprise: As expected of first-class rice, its effect is comparable to that of a magic pill, and it can be used directly as a pill!

The planting experiment was successful, and Ye Ming ordered the Tiangong puppets to plant on a large scale. The Tiangong puppets are very professional, and they are no worse than Ye Ming in the steps of opening canals, setting up the gathering array, plowing the fields, fertilizing and so on. So in just half a month, all three billion catties of long-lived rice were planted in the ground, waiting for the fruit.

The yield of the first-class crops is very high, and the cost of the seeds can be recovered once the long-growing rice basically bears fruit. In other words, once a catty of rice is planted, once it grows, it can produce a catty of fruit in three days, and it can bear fruit one hundred and twenty times a year, that is to say, its annual output can reach about 120 catties.

Of course, Ye Ming will save the grains produced in the early stage, so that they can be planted in a large area. Once the planting has taken shape, he can use it to make a profit. It is a pity that, as a first-class crop, Ye Ming cannot allow them to circulate among the human race, which will definitely attract the attention of the god race, and even affect the Moon Shadow clan.

What he has to do is to process the first-class crops into elixir or Peiyuan food, so that the gods can't see the relationship with the first-class crops. Of course, supporting factories and skilled Tiangong puppets are indispensable, which require a large investment.

Taking Changsheng rice as an example, Ye Ming estimates that the cost of producing a catty of Changsheng rice will be about 6,000 Eternal Coins, including the formation method, fertilizer, and labor. This rice can be sold for 10,000 Eternal Coins a catty at least if it is simply sold. If it is made into pills or food, the price can be sold for 20,000 to 30,000 eternity, which is completely profitable.

In comparison, second-class crops are not so complicated, and they are directly collected and sold. Taking the second-class and first-class crops as an example, for every catty of rice picked, the various costs invested are about 100,000 longevity coins. And if a catty of old vegetables is sold in the market, it is worth at least 200,000 yuan, which also has a huge profit margin.

The cost of third-class crops is relatively low. For example, to produce third-class Zhenyuan Valley, the cost per catty is at most 120,000 French coins, and the selling price can reach 180,000 French coins. Considering the high prices of first-class crops and second-class crops, Ye Ming's sales people who produce them are mainly people in the Fatian realm and the Changsheng realm.

However, with large-scale planting, the production cost will further decrease, and the selling price will also decrease accordingly. But in any case, these advanced crops are destined to be eaten only by the rich and powerful, and the poor cannot afford them. After all, for an ordinary family, tens of thousands of longevity coins are enough for them to spend their whole life. Who would use them to buy rice?

If it is said that ordinary people can afford it, it is a third-class crop. Like the Great World of the Three Emperors and the Immortal Dao Continent, the people at the bottom are far richer than the Tianyuan Continent back then. Their annual per capita income can generally reach more than 100,000 to 200,000 French coins. Especially for those who have monks in their families, it is normal for them to earn several million a year. And like the dragon's blood rice of the third and seventh grades, a catty of rice is several hundred Fatian coins, and most people can afford it. However, this price is much lower than the price in Confucianism and Taoism. After all, Ye Ming has a good environment in Chaos Continent, and the cost of planting is lower.

While breeding, Ye Ming discovered a big problem. Not all parts of the land in the settlements are suitable for growing first-class crops, some can only grow second-class and third-class crops, and some places cannot even grow crops at all.

In this regard, Ye Ming took the sword of time and space and carried out detailed surveying and mapping. It turned out that the place where long-lived rice can be grown in the entire settlement is only about 500,000 mu. There are only about 2 million mu of land where crystal sweet potatoes can be grown. The situation of Bu Lao Cai is much better, with more than 200 billion mu of land available. The third-class Zhenyuan Valley can be planted with an area of ​​2 trillion mu of land; as for Dragon's Blood Rice, the area that can be planted has reached 15 trillion mu of land.

In the entire settlement, there are about 46 trillion acres of consumable land. In addition to the above, the remaining 31 trillion acres of land can be used to grow some fourth-class crops. However, the income is too low, and Ye Ming has no interest in planting. He will give those lands to the immigrants of the Three Emperors for free to plant, and use them to feed livestock.

Ye Ming further estimated that the long-lived rice per acre of land will yield 2,000 catties if it bears fruit once, and 120 times a year, the yield will be 240,000 catties. Based on the cost of 6,000 per catty and the selling price of 10,000 per catty, the annual profit per mu of land is 960 million eternal coins. If all 500,000 mu of land are planted with long-lived rice, the total output will be 12 trillion catties, and the annual profit will be 4.8 trillion eternal coins!

If it can be further processed into elixir, the profit can be further increased to more than 16 trillion eternal coins. However, the construction of the factory requires time and investment, and there is no money in sight for the time being.

The yield of crystal sweet potatoes is slightly higher. Every time the stems are collected, the production capacity per mu can reach 5,000 jin. It can be collected 90 times a year, and the annual output per mu is 400,000 to 500,000 jins. The cost of producing crystal sweet potatoes is 2,500 eternal coins per catty, the price is 4,000 per catty, the profit per catty is 1,500, and the profit per mu is 675 million eternal coins.

If all 2 million acres are planted with crystal sweet potatoes, the total annual output will reach 9 trillion catties, and the total profit will reach 13.5 trillion eternal coins!

In comparison, the yield per mu of second-class crops such as young vegetables does not have such a high profit margin. Its yield per mu is only about 1,000 jin, and it is picked 36 times a year, with an annual output of 36,000 jin. One hundred thousand longevity coins will be deducted for growth per catty, and there is only a profit of one hundred thousand longevity coins. Therefore, the annual profit per mu of land is 3.6 billion longevity coins, or 4400 eternal coins. Fortunately, the planting area of ​​old vegetables can reach 200 billion mu, and the final total profit can reach about 88 billion.

The remaining Zhenyuan Valley has an annual profit of about 5 trillion eternal coins; the profit of dragon blood rice is relatively low, only about 12 trillion eternal coins per year. However, he does not intend to make money from this dragon blood rice, but to send it to the Tianyuan Continent and the Three Emperors Continent as food for the common people.

The three trillion people in the Three Emperors World divided up the remaining 31 trillion mu of land, with an average of ten mu per person. These lands can grow fourth-class crops, and the yield is much higher than that in the Three Emperors World. When they were in the Great World of the Three Emperors, each of their families planted dozens of acres of land, with an average of less than ten acres per person. Except for rations, most of the proceeds are paid for rent.

Fortunately, Ye Ming not only does not require land rent, but also provides them with high-quality seeds, fertilizers, and even irrigation for free. The common people were naturally extremely happy, and they were all extremely grateful to the Emperor. They set up longevity tablets at home and enshrined them in Jingri.

In fact, the income of ordinary people from farming is quite limited. Taking the 31 trillion mu of land planted with low-grade crops as an example, the annual output in three seasons is only about 3,000 catties, or three shimi. And the price per stone of rice is only more than 30 fatian coins, and three stones are only 100 fatian coins. Each family has 40 to 50 acres of land, and the annual harvest is only four to five thousand French coins.

Most families can’t make much money purely by farming. Most of them will go to mines, shops, restaurants, etc. to earn money to support their families. Their income is much higher than farming. Of course, there are also some families who plant a lot of land, with hundreds or even thousands of acres, and their income is quite considerable.

Fortunately, the long-lived rice, crystal sweet potatoes, and old vegetables grown by Ye Ming, as well as Zhenyuan Valley and Dragon Blood Rice are all crops that need to be collected frequently, which requires a lot of manpower. It is impossible for Ye Ming to let Tiangong puppets and guards do this kind of rough work, it would be too inferior. This alone provides a lot of job opportunities for the common people.

Taking an acre of long-growing rice as an example, two people are needed for fertilizing, two people are needed for harvesting, three people are needed for drying and packing, one person is needed for watering, three people are needed for loosening the soil, weeding, and pruning, plus other things, one mu The land needs about fifteen people. With 500,000 mu of land, there are 7.5 million permanent workers.

Zhenyuan Valley employs even more people. At least five people are required to be in charge of each mu of land, and 20 billion mu of land requires a population every year. Adding others, almost all of these three trillion people have the opportunity to work. For such long-term workers, Ye Ming can pay 300,000 to 500,000 per year. In the end, the annual income of each person can reach as high as 300,000 to 400,000 French coins.

However, Ye Ming's ambitions don't stop there, he named this place the first settlement. After this place is perfected, he will build the second, third, and more settlements, and then immigrate more people from various big worlds!
