Zai Zai Planet Farm [Rebirth]

Under the scorching sun, Song Yi, who was wearing a gray uniform and a sun hat, was holding a big potato in both hands, his eyes were full of shock and excitement: "It's only matured in 5 days, and it's so big..."

When Guan Yu said that he had grown potatoes, Song Yi's first reaction was that it was impossible.

Only five days have passed, and the surviving potato seeds in the Institute of Botany have only just grown seedlings. How could it be possible that they have already borne fruit?

But at this moment, the heavy potato in his hand is the best proof.

Nong Jiamao pushed his glasses, lifted a potato seedling with difficulty, and found nearly ten large potatoes hanging from the root.Calculated by catties, the yield of potatoes grown by Guan Yu is 10 times that of theirs.

All the seeds survived, the growth period was shortened, and the yield was greatly increased, but Guan Yu did it all in just 5 days without any effort.

The two looked at each other, and they both saw suspicion in each other's eyes: Guan Yu can turn the impossible into the possible, there must be something strange in it.

what is it then?Could it be that Guan Yu secretly mastered some planting technology?Or are these potato seedlings all genetically mutated?

The two of them were thinking hard, when Tangtang, a glutinous rice dumpling-like kid, ran out of the room excitedly, and called from afar, "Grandpa, uncle, I want to eat potatoes!"

Let's taste the taste first, can the potatoes grown in 5 days be eaten?

The two got up and walked to the room, and within a short distance, they found a special aroma in the air, sweet and thick with starch, much more fragrant than the potatoes in the research institute.

The taste is definitely not bad!Song Yi's heart was surging, and he hurriedly quickened his pace.

Guan Yu was taking out two big potatoes from the kettle and putting them on the clean table, when he saw the two of them busy and warmly greeted them, "Come and taste it."

There is no such luxury as kitchen utensils and tableware in the official store of Drew Star, and knives are also included in the category of weapons and are not allowed to appear.Guan Yu, who had no tools, was quick to think, put the washed potatoes into the kettle and boiled, and then peeled the potatoes before eating.

——All this is thanks to the strong Greater China foodie gene in his blood.

The potatoes have been cooled in advance, and now it is just the right temperature for the entrance.Guan Yu asked the two of them not to be polite to do it themselves, but he himself first helped the little baby who couldn't wait to skin it.

Tangtang sat on the chair well-behaved, raised her pink face and watched Dad's movements intently, her little mouth couldn't help swallowing several times.

The cooked potatoes peeled nicely, and a big chunk fell off with the touch of a finger.Guan Yu broke off a small piece of potato for the baby to hold and eat, worried that he would rub it on his clothes and put a towel under his chin.

Tangtang grinned, revealing a row of neat baby teeth, "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh" took a bite, and just moved his mouth a few times, his big glass-like eyes suddenly widened: "Dad! It's delicious! "

The baby's cheeks are bulging like a hamster, and it tastes delicious.Song Yi and Nong Jiamao were also curious about the taste of potatoes, so they unceremoniously peeled off the skin and shared half a potato, eagerly biting into it.

The fluffy and smooth potatoes spread out as soon as they touch the tip of the tongue. The sweetness is just right and the milk flavor fills the whole mouth.

too delicious.Song Yi and Nong Jiamao only had this one thought in their minds, and they didn't have the heart to think about other things.

The living room fell silent for an instant, only the sound of chewing one after another.

Guan Yu also felt that the potatoes tasted sweet, fragrant and soft, and they were even more delicious than the ones he had eaten in the 21st century.It’s just that it’s a bit monotonous to cook for nothing. If it can be sliced ​​into thin slices and fried and then served with chili salt, the taste will be...

Guan Yu thought to himself, Chili must be arranged as soon as possible.

Because of his research, Song Yi has eaten a lot of food from the ancient earth, but he has never been so unrestrained as today. He ate half a large potato in his stomach before stopping, and only after eating did he feel overwhelmed.

Guan Yu hurriedly brought warm water to his hand, for fear that he would choke.

After drinking half a cup of warm water, Song Yi wiped his mouth with a paper towel, and said, "Xiaoguan, the price we discussed before was 50 star coins for a potato, but now this price is not appropriate. I will offer 300 star coins each, and all Take it away, can you see it?"

300 stars each? !

Guan Yu almost choked on the unswallowed potato when he heard the words, and quickly began to calculate in his mind: He planted a total of 20 potato seedlings, and one plant bore ten fruits, 20*10*300, that's 6 star coins!

The cost of potato seeds is only 400 star coins. Farming is also very profitable, right?

Nong Jiamao at the side also figured it out, and his complexion became unsightly. He pushed his eyes, glanced at Guan Yu, and whispered in Song Yi's ear: "Old Song, our funds..."

Although the Institute of Botany recycles the fruit at a high price, the money paid is all from the research funds, and the recovered fruit is also used for research, and secondary sales are not allowed.

The research energy of the Imperial Academy of Agricultural Sciences is devoted to genetically grafting new plants. The Botanical Research Institute’s idea of ​​cultivating ancient earth plants is contrary to its superiors. The annual research funds have been repeatedly deducted by the superiors. This year’s 300 million star coins have only arrived in the account so far. 30, spending 6 star coins at once is really too much.

Song Yi naturally understood what Comrade Xiaonong was worried about, but he felt that paying 300 star coins was too little.

He has studied ancient earth plants for many years and knows the relevant information like the back of his hand.The potatoes grown by Yinhe Company using unique technology cost 200 star coins each. They are only one-third the size of Guan Yu's potatoes, and the taste is far worse.

He felt that one of Guan Yu's potatoes was worth at least 600 star coins, but the research institute had limited funds, so he could only raise the price to 300 star coins, hoping that Guan Yu could sell more to them for research.

If the planting technology can be discovered and applied to other plants through the study of potato fruits, will the research institutes that have achieved outstanding results still have no research funding?

He shook his head calmly, signaling Nong Jiamao not to mention it again, and then looked at Guan Yu, but he was very disturbed, worried that Guan Yu would say that his bid was too low and he would not sell it.

Guan Yu saw Song Yi and Nong Jiamao muttering to each other, and thought of the dilapidated building in the Institute of Botany, so he guessed that their hands were a little nervous.

Quickly made a decision in his heart, he swallowed the last bite of potatoes, wiped his mouth and said with a smile: "Mr. Song, you don't need to raise the price, I'll sell it to you at 50 star coins each, and you can buy as much as you need, and you don't need all receive."

After the words fell, Nong Jiamao stopped eating potatoes; Song Yi's old face was full of surprise, and he blurted out, "How can that be possible! I can't take advantage of you like this!"

Guan Yu smiled helplessly: "Don't worry, in exchange, you can teach me how to germinate potatoes to make seeds, is that okay?"

Potatoes are vegetatively propagated, and the tuber fruit can be germinated to make seeds and continue to be planted.Guan Yu wanted to use this excuse to sell his favor to Song Yi, so he could ask them more in the future.

These potatoes taste so good, there must be no worries about selling them.He is not in a hurry to earn the 6 star coins, and the key is to make potato seeds as soon as possible, and further expand the planting scale and production.

Song Yi didn't agree at first, it's not difficult to germinate seeds, and it's worthless if you teach them.He insisted that even if he didn't buy all the potatoes, he would buy them at a price of 300 stars each.Guan Yu talked with him for a long time, and finally persuaded him with the reason of "50 star coins were agreed at the beginning so it can't be changed".

Song Yi sighed, with an expression of being helpless against Guan Yu, nodded and said: "Then it's decided, it's not just Tudou, contact us anytime you encounter problems in the future."

Guan Yuxi smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, I have a question right now."

Song Yi replied: "I know everything."

"You've been living and working on Drew for quite some time, right?"

"Yeah...it's been 30 years, and I haven't left." Song Yi replied with some emotion.

Sure enough, it has been quite a few years. Guan Yu was overjoyed and hurriedly asked: "According to the growth rate of potatoes, the planting scale will expand rapidly. At the same time, I will definitely have to find someone to help me plant, take care of, and sell. I want to know if these are suitable for Drew. Is it the star's rule?"

For Guan Yu, it was not a problem to plant 20 potato seedlings, but it took some effort to plant 200, and it would be very difficult to plant 2000.Potatoes are harvested every 5 days, and the planting scale will quickly double and double again. It is unrealistic for him to work alone.

Guan Yu searched for information on the star network, and carefully read the introduction manual of Drew Star, but he couldn't find the specific regulations of Drew Star in this regard, so he asked Song Yi for help.

Song Yi pondered for a while, and answered him: "There are no specific regulations on these matters. Drew Star is a waste star in the galaxy. It is on the edge of the galaxy and has no mineral resources or energy sources. Therefore, there will be no human beings after the Great Migration." There is no local government established. The imperial government only issued rough regulations on forced labor 50 years ago, and there are no more detailed regulations.

The rules don't say no, if you do it, it's not considered a violation.Planting is supported and encouraged by the government, and there is no problem in expanding the scale, so don't worry about it.As for the manpower problem, there are two solutions: one is to recruit workers, and find humans to help you. As long as you have money, someone will definitely come; the other is to use tools, such as robots and automated machinery, which will be more efficient. "

The job recruitment was exactly as Guan Yu expected, but he didn't expect to be able to use robots and automated machinery?It is not sold in Drew Star's official store!

"Of course it won't be sold in the store, because most people don't need it." Song Yi cleared his throat on purpose, and winked at Nong Jiamao, who then got up to close the door, not forgetting to draw the curtains and turn on the light .

Tangtang didn't understand why the atmosphere suddenly changed, and she stretched out her hand in fear to want her father to hug her.Guan Yu let him sit on his lap and hugged him tightly.

Under the warm yellow light, Song Yi's wrinkled face looked very mysterious. He said softly: "There is a person in the D28 area who is very proficient in machinery. He made the automatic control system and sprinkler irrigation equipment of the Institute of Botany. And assembled a domestic robot for us."

"He can also assemble robots?" Guan Yu had a flash of inspiration, and immediately remembered the robot he had painstakingly brought to Drew Star, and moved forward with Tangtang in his arms, with an urgent tone, "Will he know how to repair robots?" ?”

The author has something to say: Tang Shaoan: I have been lying in a hospital bed for five days, and you finally thought of a robot.
