Meanwhile, after hanging up the phone, Xiya arrived at a luxurious villa on Little White Star.

He was now slightly hunched over, recounting everything that had just happened to the man sitting in the chair.

This man was Sun Bao, the mastermind behind placing him in the base.

West Asia looked somewhat indignant.

"Lord Sun, Wang Xiaobai clearly doesn't take you seriously."

Sun Bao raised his hand to stop him from continuing.

"Alright, I already know what happened."

Sun Bao suddenly laughed.

"You mean Yi Tian is a distant relative of Wang Xiaobai, right?"

"right."

"Haha, he's definitely more capable than Wang Xiaobai."

"It seems Wang Xiaobai is somewhat dissatisfied with the status quo."

"But this is good too, so I don't have to worry about him all the time, or what if he can't go on living one day."

Sun Bao and the others in the chamber of commerce had always treated Wang Xiaobai like a pig.

In Sun Bao's eyes, everything Wang Xiaobai did today was...

They simply feel their pig feed isn't tasty enough and want to improve their pig treatment.

But no matter how much you improve their treatment, pig feed is still pig feed.

People look down on it.

Xiya said somewhat unwillingly.

"Is that all?"

Sun Baodao.

"Otherwise what?"

Sun Bao laughed.

"It's just a small silkworm breeding base, what kind of trouble do you think it can cause?"

After saying that, he waved his hand, indicating that Xiya could leave.

But when they were halfway through their journey to Xiya, Sun Bao called them back.

"It just so happens that you're currently unemployed."

"Just to be on the safe side, you'll keep an eye on Wang Xiaobai. Report to me immediately if anything happens."

Xiya nodded.

"Yes."

Little White Silkworm Breeding Base.

Yi Tian has already begun researching how to improve the quality of silk.

He first randomly picked a silkworm that looked relatively robust.

It has been simplified.

"System, I want to simplify the process of this silkworm and improve its silk-spinning skill proficiency."

The system was incredibly efficient, and a perfect solution appeared very quickly.

【Requirement 1: 1 Baihe Coin】

[Requirement 2: The silkworms need to be kept in an environment with a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius for 1000 hours]

The second requirement is easy to meet; just make a constant temperature incubator.

The demand completely baffled Yi Tian.

"Damn, how come your system has changed the monetary system too?"

Is this reasonable?

What he needs most right now is Baihe currency.

Even completing the simplified solution requires spending Baihe coins.

This made things even worse for the already impoverished family.

Yi Tian thought to himself, trembling.

It's impossible that future simplifications will all require spending Baihe coins, right?

What's the point of playing then?

He currently has a total of 500 Baihe coins on him.

These are rewards earned from playing ranked matches in the game.

Even if all the money is spent, it can only reduce the number of silkworms to 500.

For the silkworms in the entire base, this is only a very small part.

Yi Tian rubbed his temples.

If I have more money in the future, I might consider simplifying skill training.

Let's look at the other two methods for now.

Next, Yi Tian tried a simplified evolution scheme.

Stop talking, we still have to spend money.

Moreover, the evolution plan requires some materials that Yi Tian has never heard of.

Obviously, these materials also cost money.

There's no other way but to address it from the perspective of diet.

Yi Tian first went to Wang Xiaobai and asked him for a diagram of the current diet of silkworms.

Without hesitation, Wang Xiaobai handed a booklet to Yi Tian and asked with some curiosity.

"Mr. Yi, what are you trying to do?"

Yi Tian thought about it for a moment.

"Actually, I am a nutrition scientist."

"I'm going to try to improve the silkworms' diet."

Wang Xiaobai nodded.

"I see."

Yi Tian was quite relieved that Wang Xiaobai had not doubted him at all.

The identity of a Starry Sky disciple is really useful; I guess no matter what he does, Wang Xiaobai will think it's reasonable.

Mu Yan, who was frowning in thought, suddenly looked at Yi Tian.

That seemed to mean, "Hey, when did you get a new identity?"

Wang Xiaobai introduced Yi Tian.

"The dietary structure chart is protected by patent, and it's expensive to buy a copy."

"The maps we use at our base now were bought back when I sold an ancestral jade pendant."

Yi Tian asked curiously at this moment.

"patent?"

"So, if I can develop a different diagram than others, I can sell it for money?"

"right."

Yi Tian asked again.

"The chart, to put it simply, is to help silkworms choose what to eat."

"I could easily share the diagrams I know with others by verbally explaining them."

How should patents protect researchers?

Wang Xiaobai laughed.

"At our breeding base, one of our daily tasks is to collect data on the silkworms."

"This data needs to be synchronized to the Wanxing Breeding Base Management Center via the network."

"Using different graphs will result in different changes in various data about silkworms."

"Each pattern will have a different focus in the cultivation of silkworms. For example, some patterns are aimed at increasing yield, some at increasing the softness of the silk, and some at increasing the energy conductivity of the silk."

"If the graphs we report to the management center are inconsistent with the data shown by the silkworms, the management center will send someone to investigate."

"If they find that we've used a spectrum that isn't patented, we'll be severely punished!"

"The base may need to pay ten times the price of purchasing the map patent!"

"Furthermore, the management center also has a dedicated department for receiving reports, precisely so that there can be more monitors."

Yi Tian roughly understood.

In that sense, the patent protection system in the universe is quite well-developed.

This looks promising!

This kind of chart is a long-term source of income, not just something that requires a purchase fee when someone buys it.

When generating revenue through the graph, you can also receive a commission of 0.01%.

They can do both: develop new patterns to improve the quality of silk while also selling the patterns.

Yi Tian immediately went online to learn more, and his brows furrowed again.

"It's not that simple."

When researchers develop new maps, they also need to report them to the management center.

Then, you need to use the new chart, raise more than 10,000 silkworms for more than a year, and collect enough data before you can apply for a patent.

Therefore, selling maps cannot bring returns in the short term.

Yi Tian sighed, realizing the hardships of starting a business.

Let's try simplifying it first.

Yi Tian silently recited in his heart.

"Brother Tong, please provide a simplified and improved diagram of the silkworm's diet."

However, the system did not respond.

Yi Tian thought about it and realized that his requirements were too vague.

Different diagrams have different focuses, and you should choose one for yourself.
