I am farming in the real world.

Chapter 6 Nuclear-Powered Torch

Chen Jue spent more than 200 yuan on seeds and seedlings.

With these as a starting point, subsequent planting and cultivation with the MC system can produce corresponding seedlings continuously, which can save Chen Jue's costs to a great extent.

However, what excited Chen Jue the most was the arrangement and combination of preferred seedlings summarized from that set of tests.

As long as he has the text prompts given by the system, even if he is a novice who is not good at farming, he can select the best seedlings.

The only pity is that the number of seed packets on the stall is limited. Chen Jue looked around but couldn't find any [vigorous] + [excellent] vegetable seeds.

In the end, I had to settle for the next best thing and choose five common vegetables: Shanghai green, cabbage, Chinese cabbage, cauliflower, and rapeseed, which are considered [healthy] + [excellent].

Of course, in addition to the fruits and vegetables mentioned above, the rest of the fruits and vegetables that my grandfather used to grow, such as watermelon, loofah, and sweet potato, are not sold at this roadside stall.

Chen Jue had no choice but to use his mobile phone to record it and wait for an opportunity to go to a distant town or county to take a look later.

Originally, as a young man, it was most convenient for him to buy these seeds online from Taobao.

Unfortunately, online payment accounts such as Alipay and WeChat have been forcibly frozen, so we can only rely on this primitive way of shopping to purchase the necessary supplies.

"If I can't get all the seeds together, I'll have to trouble Zheng Bocheng and others to buy them for me later." Chen Jue muttered to himself.

I have been staying in the countryside for the past two years. Whenever I need to buy something online, I ask my best friends to help me buy it.

But if it happens too often, people will find it troublesome. After all, even the best friendships cannot withstand the wear and tear over time.

……

After getting the seeds and seedlings, Chen Jue went to the market and bought five pounds of pork bones to reward himself.

Of course, the main purpose is to use the leftover bones to try to synthesize [bone meal], a miraculous ripening artifact.

Without the help of [bone meal], Chen Jue had no idea how to speed up the cultivation of these fruits and vegetables, so he just treated it as a system experiment.

After leaving the vegetable market, Chen Jue rode past a small stall and saw some yellow-haired chicks being sold. They were a bunch of furry chirping in a plastic box. Chen Jue was immediately delighted when he saw this.

The scene reminded him of when he was in elementary school in the countryside, he often saw these vendors selling chicks in front of the school gate.

After all, innocent children cannot escape the attraction of these stuffed animals, and they will spend their pocket money after being fooled.

"How much are the chickens?"

Chen Jue asked while pushing the cart, and reached out to grab a chick and stroke it.

Furry animal cubs are extremely lethal to humans.

However, what Chen Jue cared about most was not the feel of the touch, but the text prompt given by the system: [Chicken: Healthy, free-range chicken chicks, which can produce high-quality chicken meat when they grow up. ]

"The chickens in this box are 4 yuan each. These are the chicks I hatched at home."

"On the other side are laying hens. They are more expensive at 6 yuan each." The middle-aged man selling the chicks gestured with a local accent.

He was wearing Liberation shoes, a dirt-resistant camouflage suit, and a straw hat, and there was a motorcycle parked next to him. He was obviously a chicken dealer from a nearby farm, specializing in selling these chicks.

“It’s a bit expensive!”

"Can it be less?" Chen Jue asked for a small paper box and bargained while choosing.

He has limited start-up capital on hand now, so he tries to save as much as possible.

"Since you buy a lot, I'll give you a discount of fifty cents. No less." The uncle laughed.

However, when Chen Jue picked out a dozen of the most energetic chicks in the box, the uncle's eyes suddenly showed a bit of surprise, and he asked hurriedly: "Young man, do you often raise chickens at home? You must have experience!"

Chen Juechong ignored the other party and made an excuse, saying that he had worked in a forest farm before and knew how to judge the quality of chicks.

Finally, he selected more than a dozen chicks rated [vigorous] + [excellent], and also bought a few chicks rated [healthy] + [excellent] together. The uncle saw that he was quick and had a unique eye, picking out the good chicks that were full of life, and he was impressed and said, "You picked all my best chicks, and the rest are hard to sell, so I can't give you less than 50 cents!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Jue nodded awkwardly. He knew that these vendors had a hard time as they were all trying to support their families, so he gave up the idea of ​​bargaining.

……

The trip cost Chen Jue more than 400 yuan, and half of the cash left in his pocket was gone.

The invisible pressure of money choking his throat made him stand up and pedal faster when he rode home.

It was just past 7 o'clock, and the old men and women in Chen Village had already gotten up early to go out and exercise, because the sun would get higher and it would become very hot in a while.

In particular, at the entrance of the village store, there were already a few elderly people sitting there to enjoy the cool air.

Seeing Chen Jue coming back with a bunch of stuff, a few gossipy old people pointed and said behind his back: "This kid has really been brought up in a pampered way!"

"He bought so much meat by himself, can he finish it in such a hot day?"

"I'm already in so much debt and I don't even know how to save money."

Chen Jue ignored these criticisms. After living in the village for a long time, he just ignored them.

I rode all the way home, locked the door, took the big bones into the kitchen and blanched them in water.

Shave the pork off the top and knock out the marrow inside to save for your own lunch.

Chen Jue collected the remaining bones into his backpack and dragged them into the synthesis column that came with the backpack.

The next second, the synthesis bar showed [Pig Bones] × 5 → [Bone Meal] × 15.

I clicked on the synthesis and looked at the text description on the newly synthesized mosaic [Bone Meal]: [Bone Meal: A fertilizer item that can accelerate plant growth. ]

“You can really synthesize the bone meal in the game!”

"Great!"

Chen Jue finally let go of his worries.

After all, there are no skeleton archers to spawn in the real world, so if you want to collect [bone meal], you can only use real-life materials as a substitute.

If he cannot synthesize it, then his farming plan will be largely ruined.

The only problem is that the amount of bone meal is a bit small. 15 pieces are only enough to ripen plants within 15 square meter 1 times.

Moreover, pig bones are not cheap, and it is definitely not cost-effective to use them to synthesize [bone meal] in the long run.

Fortunately, Chen Jue already had a corresponding substitute in mind.

He put away the newly purchased supplies, picked up the small paper box containing the chicks and dug up the floor of the utility room.

He climbed quickly down the vertical shaft and when he reached the underground space, the scene in front of him that was as bright as day made Chen Jue cheer for joy.

Because none of the mosaic torches that were lit all night went out!

"It really is one of those torches in the game that claim to be nuclear-powered!"

"As long as I don't actively destroy them, they will probably stay lit."

"In this way, the lighting problem underground is completely solved." Chen Jue grinned, feeling that these unscientific torches were hundreds of times more outrageous than the previous void trees.
