“Chen Junior Brother, have you ever learned the legacy of the Spirit Plant Master?”
“Never, I have just been interested in farming since I was a child.”
At the edge of a Spirit Field in the Giant Tree Ridge, Chen Mobai was chatting with two disciples from the spiritual plant division of the Divine Wood Sect. In front of them were three acres of fully mature Yubud Lingmi.
The air was filled with a heart-warming aroma of rice.
Looking around, it was a sea of golden grain.
The full rice ears looked like grains of gold naturally hanging low, with a perfect curve. As the breeze blew through the woods, they swayed steadily, like golden waves rolling in succession.
This scene of abundant harvest satisfied the two Disciples of the Divine Wood Sect, who had come to inspect the harvest of the Spirit Field.
One of the disciples plucked a rice ear, and held it in his hand, feeling the fullness of the grain shell, and smiling at the corners of his mouth.
“Chen Senior Brother, would you like to join our spiritual plant division?”
“Well, actually, I enjoy farming, and there are seven acres of Yubud Lingmi in my Spirit Field about to mature too, and to prevent pests, I can’t leave.”
Now that Chen Mobai joins the Divine Wood Sect, his only aim left is to get the Foundation Building Pill. He does not wish to waste time elsewhere.
“Don’t worry, Chen Junior Brother, our spirit plant department doesn’t micromanage. You’ll be quite free after you join.”
“Also as long as you’re a disciple in our spirit plant department, you can freely obtain the Lingzhi Husband’s legacy from the Book Pavilion.”
“There’s also an annual allowance of a hundred Spirit Stones. This can be stacked with the sect’s benefits.”
After hearing the words of this senior brother named Lu Jun, Chen Mobai was somewhat tempted. He had no interest in the Lingzhi Husband’s legacy because the immortal gate has better ones.
The key point was the additional income of a hundred Spirit Stones a year.
Although he was indeed rich now, with thousands of Spirit Stones, one could never have too many of this resource.
“Lu Senior Brother, does the spirit plant department have any other duties besides these benefits?”
Chen Mobai decided it was better to ask first, there’s no such thing as a free lunch after all.
“Occasionally, there are some issues in the spirit fields and medicine fields within the sect, and we need the help of the disciples from the spirit plant department. Looking at your farming skills, Junior Brother, I dare say that you will be among the top in the spirit plant department.”
Lu Jun put it quite clearly: he valued Chen Mobai’s farming skills, and wanted him to guide the other farming disciples within the sect to see if they could increase the yield.
“Well, I am currently at a critical point in my cultivation, and may not be able to multitask.”
If it’s just guiding one or two people, Chen Mobai could accept that. But if he were expected to go around the entire Divine Wood Sect, then he’d rather decline.
“Junior Brother, take your time to think about it.”
Lu Jun merely made a casual mention. Since Chen Mobai was not very enthusiastic, he didn’t say much more about it.
“Teng Junior Brother, let’s harvest this three acres of Yubud Lingmi.”
Lu Jun and another disciple from the spirit plant department took out two sickles, and started harvesting the three acres of fully mature Spirit Field with their magic artifacts.
In the Divine Wood Sect, disciples could claim the Spirit Field and get seeds and formation, but when it was time to harvest, the people from the spirit plant department had to come and do it.
At this time, the people from the spirit plant department would calculate the harvested yield on the spot and immediately settle the contributions to the sect.
Lu Jun and his partner seemed to be well versed in this matter, since they completed it very quickly, in just two hours.
However, Chen Mobai still felt they were too slow. If he could use the harvester from the Dimensional Cultivation, he could have finished harvesting these three acres by himself within half an hour.
“A total of 458 jin, and a yield of 150 jin per mu. This has already broken the sect’s record.”
After weighing, another spirit plant division disciple named Teng Jie was shocked.
The price of this Yubud Lingmi in the market is 10 jin for one lower-grade Spirit Stone. That is to say, the three acres harvested here, combined with the seven acres of Spirit Field that is about to mature, total to a crop worth 150 Spirit Stones.
And what did the Divine Wood Sect pay for it?
Just some inexpensive rice seeds and a lower-grade Rank-1 Azure Light Formation.
The Azure Light Formation is worth 50 Spirit Stones, but its ownership is still with the spirit plant department, and they could take it back at any time.
That means they only paid a few Spirit Stones’ worth of seed costs.
This man was born to be part of their spirit plant department.
The two exchanged glances. Lu Jun, who only casually invited Chen Mobai to join the spirit plant department earlier, felt that he might not have shown enough sincerity just now.
“Junior Brother, did you open up these other seven acres of Spirit Field yourself?”
In terms of the claiming procedure, only three acres were claimed. So theoretically, the crops from the remaining seven acres of Spirit Field belong to Chen Mobai himself.
Lu Jun clearly remembered this, because it was him who came to harvest this three-acre Spirit Field last time, although the yield was very average, only about 80 jin per mu.
“Indeed, farming is only busy during sowing. Other times it’s just killing bugs with the Spirit Needle Technique and watering. In my spare time from cultivation, I just took a hoe and opened up the wasteland nearby. It’s also a way to subsidize my cultivation needs.”
Chen Mobai answered truthfully.
The spirit plant department of the Divine Wood Sect managed thousands of acres of medicinal fields, so how could they be interested in his tiny seven acres of Spirit Field?
But he didn’t realize that the spirit plant department, while managing thousands of acres of medicine fields and focusing mainly on spiritual medicine, had also abandoned several hundred acres of Spirit Fields due to lack of manpower.
If Chen Mobai could manage these barren Spirit Fields, even just sowing the basic Yubud Lingmi, he could still harvest thousands of Spirit Stones a year.
Excluding what had to be handed over to the Three Halls of the Sect, their spirit plant department could still get half.
Even after being exploited layer by layer to get to these disciples, they could still gain at least a few dozen Spirit Stones.
This farming genius must be in their spirit plant department.
“Chen Junior Brother, we’ve been harvesting for half a day and are a bit thirsty.
I wonder if we could ask for a cup of water?”
Just as Chen Mobai was wondering why these two hadn’t left yet, Lu Jun suddenly wiped his forehead, pretending to be sweaty, and asked for water.
“Please.”
Chen Mobai immediately scooped two large bowls of water from the big water tank at the door for them.
“Chen Junior Brother, let’s be frank. Someone like you definitely needs to join our spirit plant department. If the Sect Leader finds out and we don’t recruit you, our Division Leader will surely be blamed for leaving a talent like you in the wilderness.”
“Whatever request you have, just tell me. Whatever I can satisfy, I will.”
“What I can’t satisfy, I can apply to the Division Leader.”
After hearing the sincere words of Lu Jun, Chen Mobai found it a bit strange, was he so popular just because he was good at farming?
But since the other party had already said so, he might as well make a request.
“I want the Foundation Building Pill.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Jun nearly suffocated.
This demand was something not even the three Foundation Establishment elders of the spirit plant department could satisfy, let alone him.
“Chen Junior Brother, if you want the Foundation Building Pill, then you really ought to join our spirit plant department.”
Just as Lu Jun was about to shake his head and leave, Teng Jie on the side suddenly spoke up..
