Chapter 3: Planting Trees is the Foundation of Eternity
The next morning, after a night of repairing, Akai reversed his previous fatigue and became energetic. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
After packing up, Akai and I went out to find a nearby hillside to start planting rubber trees.
The only rubber sapling, naturally, is to choose a feng shui treasure to plant.
"Generally speaking, it is enough to plant a dozen rubber trees, although there is only one now, but it does not take long for the tree to reproduce."
After clearing a flat field with a shovel and planting rubber saplings, I said to Akai.
"Anyway, there is time, take your time, and don't rush." Akai spread his hands, "Big deal, I'll go out and look for it after a while?" β
I sighed, "If you want, have you been to the nearest grove in our house?" β
I asked, "The location of the rubber tree spawn is relatively random, and you can find it not only in dense forests, but also in swamps, mountains, and other landforms if you are lucky.
In general, however, the chances are higher in swampy areas.
Although it is very easy to find in the game, when it appears in a semi-realistic environment, it is indeed possible to miss it if you are not careful.
"Not yet, but I don't think it will appear in such a small place, so I didn't look at it, and went straight in one direction." Akai touched his chin, with an uncertain tone, "I may have met rubber trees on the way, but I didn't find them, maybe, no way, the forest is too big and too dense, rubber trees are generally covered by ordinary trees, and they are quite hidden." β
I nodded, not complaining about the problem of only one tree species, "Yes, speaking of this tree, we can use bone meal to fertilize this tree." β
"In that case, let's go over there first." Akai suggested.
About fifteen minutes away, we walked slowly to the nearest part of the woods where the border could be discerned with the naked eye.
It reminds me of the woods when I first came into this world.
In addition, most of our family's bamboo shoots are picked from this forest, after all, it is close and easy to walk.
Here I have to mention the roads of this world, because they are all blocks, so with a height difference of one meter, it is really difficult to walk.
There are places that still need to be climbed, and exploring the wild in this world requires too much stamina, which is why Akai and I have not enjoyed exploring the wild since we settled down, and we like to stay at home even though we have strong physical fitness and magic.
Even mining is much easier than exploring the wilderness, after all, you can dig up the tunnels by stairs or ladders.
"When I was playing the game, I had to jump at a place with a height difference of one meter, and I felt that I was just tired of operating."
"As a result, I realized that I was super tired after experiencing it myself." With a big stride and a higher level of ground, Akai looked at the ground of the grove and said, "There are bamboo shoots." β
"It doesn't matter, we even have a bamboo forest, do we still lack that little bamboo shoot."
In the backyard built on top of the sea, there is also a large flat land that I used to grow bamboo, and because the bamboo grows rapidly, it is now a dense small bamboo forest.
The magic fluctuated slightly, and a huge strange eyeball rose into the sky.
"Clairvoyance is as easy to use as ever." Akai looked up, except that it didn't feel very good and slightly weird, this magic was quite practical.
"I still have the flashing technique of flashing the eyes of a blind dog, are you afraid~" I said with a smile.
"Well, after all, the Fa Ye is his own son."

"What's wrong?" Akai said suspiciously.
"Akai, you African!" I said calmly, "There is a rubber tree here, and you actually ran so far away and brought back the seed of a rubber tree, what are you not African?" β
βwtfοΌοΌοΌοΌοΌ Take me to see it! "Akai felt like he had been hit hard, and it was the kind that worked outstandingly.
Who knows if there would be a rubber tree in such a grove! Oh, my God! This year's character has definitely been lost.,Just because I gave a full-handle gift to brush up on favorability (die-hearted) before I left the ship girl's world.,Don't play him like this.γ
Three steps and two steps, we quickly crossed the undulating terrain between jumps and came to the rubber tree.
"Heyγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» there's nowhere to find it when you step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it." I shook my head and looked at the rubber tree in front of me, there were two small holes in the trunk with gum sap flowing out.
"Your sister! What is called is easy to obtain! Labor and management sleep outside for three days and three nights! Akai had a smile on his face at this time, and he could only face this kind of cheating thing with a smile.
But in any case, it is much better than a rubber tree to reproduce slowly, depending on how many species this rubber tree can give us.
After a moment of exclamation and nervousness and grumbling, we each started cutting the leaves with scissors in hand.
However, this time it was good luck and dropped two saplings for us.
In this way, the saplings of three rubber trees can make our industry develop more rapidly.
At the end, the bare trunk of the rubber tree was left behind and a torch was inserted into it as a mark. Before leaving, we made a tool that could extract the original gum [wooden faucet] and extracted the original gum from the trunk.
The wooden faucet is a tool specially used to extract the original rubber on the rubber trunk, only five wooden boards can be made, and the placement method is the same as the faucet as the name suggests, and the workbench only needs to be vacated in the position of seven, nine, two and three.
The durability is not very high, but material does not matter as it is very easy to do it.
And the wooden faucet can extract one to three original glue at one time, which is convenient and easy to use.
Next, Akai and I went back to the selected flat land and planted the three rubber trees one after the other, keeping a distance of three meters between each sapling, so that it was easy to collect and not too dense with rubber trees.
After that, fertilize it with bone meal and wait quietly for it to grow.

When I got home, I took the two dark yellow condensates that Akai had brought back from my backpack, that is, the original gum, in my hands and put them in the iron furnace for burning and refining.
[Original rubber] can be turned into [rubber] after firing, but this method is quite wasteful, because if there is an extraction machine, a raw rubber can be safely turned into three black spherical rubber after the extraction of the extraction machine.
But the extractor requires electricityγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
Although there were only two pieces of rubber, they were better than nothing, and I held them in my hand and played with them like two iron balls in the hands of an old man on the street.
After all, there aren't many round things in this world, and the appearance of any round item excites Akai and me.
Akai went out to mine after lunch, and in his words, because he had suffered a huge physical and mental blow, but there was no Joy Sister from the Elf Center nearby to help him recover, so he had to go underground to find ore to soothe his soul.
"Where did this gopher come fromγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»" I shook my head and said with a helpless smile.
"Forget it, the next thing is to wait for the rubber plantations to multiply, well, I want to think about it, is there anything else that needs to be done."
After thinking about it for a while, I felt that there was nothing I wanted to do, so I could only run to the balcony with a good view, and read a book and drank tea while looking at the sea.
By the way, in the world of ship mothers, the photo album that the old man gave us is really good.
"I remember where I put my pen and paper?"
I stood up, as a mage who pursued art, and I was seeing beautiful things (Voice of Mystery: Is your good thing a book?). After that, I started to itch and wanted to draw it.
Walking past the shelves with the books I had written when I was idle and bored, and recording some messy things, I found a pen and paper and began to copy them to pass the time.
