Plants vs. Cultivation.

Chapter 55 Rent-free Renewal
"Senior Brother Gu Mo!"

"Senior Brother Gu Mo!"

……

Leaving the spiritual field and heading towards the spiritual plantation hall, the spiritual field that was originally empty was now being cultivated by many menial disciples. Seeing Gu Mo passing by, those menial disciples greeted him one after another.

From this we can also see the status of Gu Mo in the hearts of these menial disciples. After all, who wouldn't respect a senior brother who can guide them from time to time?

Listening to the voices of "Senior Brother", Gu Mo couldn't help but sigh that he was now considered an old man in Lingzhitang. He came to the warehouse with ease, and at this time a familiar voice came.

"Junior Brother Gu Mo, long time no see!"

Hearing this, Gu Mo turned around and saw Mai Yunfa also walking in.

"Brother Mai, are you here to register your production as well?" Gu Mo showed rare enthusiasm towards this rare acquaintance of Lingzhitang.

"Hehe, that's right, this time I successfully planted several acres of cloud grass." Mai Yunfa had a smile on his face. As outer disciples of the Lingzhi Hall, in addition to the improvement in their cultivation, what makes them most happy is naturally the planting of rare spiritual plants.

The Yunmu grass he mentioned is a mid-grade first-grade spiritual plant. Although it is called grass, its shape resembles wood. It can be used as a fast-growing spiritual wood and can be used for making fire and refining medicine.

"Congratulations to Brother Mai for the huge increase in harvest this year." Gu Mo smiled and congratulated. The higher the value of the spiritual plants grown, the higher the income of the growers will naturally be.

“Haha, that’s nothing. Junior Brother Gu Mo, you are the real deal. Not everyone can achieve an acreage yield of 800 kilograms of Lingyu rice. I wonder if you can continue to create miracles this time.” Mai Yunfa still remembers Gu Mo’s 800 kilograms of Lingyu rice. At least he couldn’t achieve such a high acreage yield.

From Mai Yunfa's words, he obviously didn't know that Gu Mo was planting water spirit rice. Only the manager who distributed the spirit seeds and Zhao Qiancheng knew about this. Because they didn't know whether Gu Mo could really grow the water spirit rice successfully, the two did not disclose the news.

As they were talking, the two came to the registration window, and Gu Mo took out his errand disciple token and handed it over.

"Disciple Gu Mo, choose the type of spiritual plant you want to log in."

The warehouse manager in charge of registration conducted routine inquiries. At the same time, he was also preparing to write the three words "Lingyu Rice". It was he who reported that Gu Mo had won the Lingyu Rice per-acre yield championship.

"Shuiling Rice!"

Gu Mo named the types of spiritual plants that needed to be registered.

"What rice?"

The warehouse manager looked up, a little surprised. He seemed to have heard Gu Mo say something about rice, but it was definitely not Lingyu rice.

"It's Shuiling Rice, Senior!"

Gu Mo took out a handful of Shuiling rice ears and confirmed.

This person was the manager of the warehouse, not the one who distributed the spiritual seeds, so naturally he didn't know that Gu Mo had received the water spiritual rice seeds.

"Sigh~~"

As Gu Mo took out the ears of Shuiling Rice, there were simultaneous sounds of people gasping for breath. The one in front was naturally the warehouse manager, and the one behind was Mai Yunfa.

Whether it was the warehouse manager or Mai Yunfa, both of them were very familiar with Shuiling Rice and knew the difficulty of growing it. That was why they were so shocked.

"Junior Brother Gu Mo, you, you..." Mai Yunfa said in disbelief. Shuiling rice is a high-quality spiritual plant that Mai Yunfa cannot grow at present, but Gu Mo, who has only been a student for more than two years, has successfully grown a first-level high-quality spiritual plant like Shuiling rice. The gap between people is too big.

"It seems that your Little Cloud and Rain Art has already entered the realm of mastery." Suddenly, another voice sounded. Upon hearing this, Gu Mo glanced over and saluted quickly, saying, "Greetings, Deacon Zhao!"

Zhao Qiancheng came after learning that Gu Mo came to register the production. He knew very well what spiritual plant Gu Mo came to register the production for this time.

"Then let me see your yield." Zhao Qiancheng signaled Gu Mo to take out the harvest.

Hearing this, Gu Mo waved his sleeves and took out all the harvested water spirit rice ears, and the warehouse manager put these rice ears into a special magic tool, and after a while, crystal clear grains of water spirit rice appeared.

"300 pounds!"

With just a glance, the warehouse manager knew Gu Mo's production this time.

"Not bad!"

There was also surprise in Zhao Qiancheng's eyes. 300 kilograms of Shuiling rice, this yield was not low. It was no exaggeration to say that with these 300 kilograms of Shuiling rice, even if the output of Lingyu rice continued to decrease this year, the evaluation he would get would be excellent.

Compared to the huge output, there are some aged Lingyu Rice and Shuiling Rice every year, these high-quality spiritual rices are what the sect values ​​the most.

This kind of high-quality spiritual rice has always been in short supply, so the sect attaches great importance to increasing the production of this kind of high-quality spiritual plants. Increasing the production of a few hundred kilograms of water spiritual rice is far more important than increasing the production of thousands or tens of thousands of kilograms of spiritual jade rice.

"Deacon Zhao, can I keep 100 kilograms of spiritual rice for myself?" Upon learning that Zhao Qiancheng was going to hand over all the water spiritual rice, Gu Mo spoke up quickly.

"of course can!"

Zhao Qiancheng coughed lightly, and then he remembered that, in theory, these 300 kilograms of water spiritual rice all belonged to Gu Mo, and his spiritual fields were still in the rent-free period.

However, Gu Mo's spiritual farm rent-free period will be over in half a year. Thinking of this, Zhao Qiancheng had an idea, "Gu Mo, if you can hand over 200 kilograms of water spiritual rice every year, then your spiritual farm can always enjoy the rent-free treatment, and the 200 kilograms of water spiritual rice you hand over can be exchanged for sect contributions normally."

"Thank you, Deacon Zhao, for the reward!"

Hearing this, Gu Mo's eyes lit up. If he handed over 200 kilograms of water spirit rice, he would be able to enjoy rent-free all the time. This was definitely a great thing for Gu Mo, and the 200 kilograms of water spirit rice he handed over could also be normally contributed to the sect. This treatment was already better than many ordinary outer disciples of the Lingzhi Hall.

Outer disciples also need to pay the rent for the spiritual fields, and the rent ratio is not low. Of course, some outer disciples with special abilities can enjoy higher treatment.

"My Lingzhi Hall will not be stingy with rewards for outstanding disciples. As long as you can turn in the water spirit rice steadily, I will apply for the status of an outer disciple for you." Zhao Qiancheng threw out another big bait.

Seeing this, Mai Yunfa on the side felt a little sad. He had never seen Deacon Zhao speak to his disciples so cordially.

"Disciples must work hard!"

Gu Mo bowed hurriedly. He had not expected that he would get the status of an outer disciple so soon. With Gu Mo's current strength, it would not be difficult to stabilize the yield of 300 kilograms of Shuiling rice per mu.

With 2000 more sect contributions added to his identity token, Gu Mo also completed the registration. One catty of Lingyu rice can only be exchanged for one contribution point, while one catty of Shuiling rice can be exchanged for 1 contributions. 1 catties of Shuiling rice directly increased Gu Mo's contribution by 1.

If he handed over the 100 kilograms of water spirit rice on him, Gu Mo could directly obtain 3000 contributions, which he could exchange for the Hidden Qi Art that he had always dreamed of.

At this moment, Gu Mo deeply felt the changes brought about by the growth of strength. Before, he had to save up 3000 contributions to farm for three years, but now he can get enough for one season of Shuiling Rice in one year.
