Volume II Chapter XXIV The Auction
"What are you buying Lingdao for? I don't think there's a place to plant at home! ”
Lu Yu found that he couldn't understand Ziyan's thinking, spiritual rice was not an ordinary rice in the Tianlan world, it was also a low-grade spiritual material, or the lowest level spiritual material, which had the effect of replenishing spiritual energy and improving physical fitness, ordinary monks would directly buy spiritual rice to eat, or use spiritual rice to make wine.
The price of spiritual rice is not low, but it is not expensive, the price of a catty is about twenty or thirty taels of silver, for ordinary people, this price is comparable to sky-high prices, but for monks, this price is barely acceptable.
This is also the reason why Lu Yu felt that Ziyan was a little puzzled to buy spiritual rice.
"This woman will not be idle, ready to experience what it is like to be a farmer!"
Ziyan tugged at Lu Yu's cuffs, pulled Lu Yu to a corner where no one was around, and whispered: "The spiritual rice we usually eat is different from this spiritual rice, although the real spiritual rice is the lowest level spiritual material, it is also a spiritual material anyway." Lingmi does not belong to spiritual materials, it is the seeds of spiritual rice cultivated in ordinary soil, which only contains a small amount of medicinal properties, so Lingmi will be sold so cheaply. ”
"Profiteers!"
Lu Yu felt that his IQ had been hit again, and sure enough, businessmen were profit-seeking, and they were all over the world, even if they crossed two worlds.
"The price of spiritual rice is actually not expensive, the key is the planting environment and conditions, isn't the twenty-square garden in the backyard of the home empty? It's better to plant a little spiritual rice, you can harvest a season in two or three months, it's better than spiritual materials to plant, the yield is good, and the price outside is ten lower grade spirit stones per catty, mainly because long-term consumption has many benefits for the body of a beginner monk! ”
Lu Yu felt that Ziyan didn't tell the truth, could the yield of twenty square meters of spirit rice be stuffed between his teeth?
However, he didn't mean to break it, so he asked the shopkeeper to weigh three catties of spirit rice seeds, paid ten low-grade spirit stones, and left the spirit plant shop.
After leaving Bird and Flower Street, the two went to the horse market again, and after shopping for a while, Ziyan bought a pure black war horse for Lu Yu, the horseback of the war horse is as tall as Lu Yu's height, and its body shape is equivalent to two war horses in the main world, giving people a feeling of strength and strength.
Although Lu Yu can make a carriage when he goes to Tiannan Road, it is obvious that people will be very uncomfortable when they sit in a carriage for a few months, bring a horse with him, ride a horse when he is in a hurry, and rest in the carriage when he is tired.
The problem is that Lu Yu can't ride a horse!
When he was about to get home, Lu Yu went to the blacksmith shop at the corner of the street and retrieved dozens of custom-made arrows and dozens of catties of copper bars. Originally, it was planned for the blacksmith to draw the copper strip into silk, but who knew that the blacksmith said that the drawing was too troublesome, and the time was a little longer, and the quality of the drawing could not be guaranteed, so Lu Yu gave up in the end.
The purpose of Lu Yu's wire drawing is, of course, to prepare for experiments, using the copper wire of Tianlan World to make coils, and then * to conduct power generation experiments to see if it can be realized, and to conduct some of the most basic scientific research.
For a long time, Lu Yu has been thinking about why the electronic products in the main world cannot be used in the Tianlan world, if it is not the reason for the law, then it should be the reason for the material.
After returning home, Ziyan really took Caiyun to turn over the soil in the open space in the backyard, mixed some Five Elements Soil into the soil, and then began to plant spiritual rice, Lu Yu always felt that Ziyan's behavior was a little strange.
The next day, Lan Meng and Lu Zhu sent the Five Elements Soil, which amounted to hundreds of pieces, which made Lu Yu feel a little embarrassed.
Lu Yu quietly began to plant spirit plants in the storage space, and by the way, he also planted some spirit rice, wanting to observe what the characteristics of spirit rice were.
To this end, Lu Yu also did a small experiment, using plastic bags and bottles to fill a lot of air in the Tianlan world, and then opened it in the storage space, and used the mobile phone in the storage space to observe the reaction, the answer surprised Lu Yu, through this method, Lu Yu was able to bring the aura of the Tianlan world into the storage space, and because of the aura in the storage space, the mobile phone inside was also shut down.
It's just that the efficiency of this method is too low, the volume inside the storage space is more than 60,000 cubic meters, and it will take a whole day to fill the air with plastic bags and bottles.
This is not the main thing, the key is that the aura content in the air is too low, and it takes a lot of aura to plant spiritual plants, so you can't be idle and boring to carry the air every day!
"Ziyan, is there anything that can release aura all the time?"
"Is Lu Lang trying to create an environment full of aura?" Ziyan thought that Lu Yu wanted to cultivate under the abundant aura environment, and thought for a while: "There are things, but the price is a bit expensive, the most common is the spiritual liquid, ten low-grade spirit stones per gram, which are sold in Wanbao Pavilion." ”
"One gram and ten lower-grade spirit stones!"
Lu Yu almost didn't flash his tongue, and he felt that he asked, "Isn't there a cheaper one?" ”
Ziyan shook his head and said: "The spiritual liquid is already the lowest, it is the liquid formed by the compression of the spiritual energy to a certain extent, one gram is equivalent to the spiritual energy contained in three or four lower-grade spirit stones, if you continue to compress it, you can get the spiritual crystal, and after purification, it is the spiritual essence, which is one of the extremely important resources for the later cultivation of the monk." ”
Lu Yu felt that he couldn't even afford the spirit liquid, so he didn't need to think about the spirit crystal and spirit essence.
Under the prompting of Ziyan, Lu Yu quickly found an introduction to the spiritual liquid in the jade slip, and found that the spiritual liquid is divided into artificial and non-artificial, and the artificial spiritual liquid is naturally refined by the compression method of Ziyan, but there is also spiritual liquid in nature, but it is mainly associated with spiritual veins, and the quality is also high and low.
Usually, when the monk is cultivating at a critical time, he not only needs to use the Spirit Gathering Array, but also needs the spiritual liquid to increase the concentration of the surrounding spiritual energy to meet the needs of the monk for a large amount of spiritual energy.
Lu Yu calculated in his mind, if only the spiritual energy content in the spirit stone was considered, the spiritual energy in a low-grade spirit stone was only enough for a hundred seedlings to absorb the spiritual energy in one day, fortunately, Lu Yu did not plant many spiritual plants now, otherwise such consumption would make Lu Yu bankrupt.
I feel that planting spiritual plants is a pit, and ordinary monks really can't afford to play with it.
In the next two days, Ziyan and Lu Yu were busy with their own affairs, and Lu Yu stayed by the side of the war horse when he had time, which was called cultivating feelings, and when practicing horse riding, the war horse would quickly adapt to Lu Yu's existence.
On the third day, the two of them went out to the Wanbao Pavilion Auction Reception Building, and after seeing the jade plaque presented by Lu Yu and Ziyan, the two were invited to a teleportation table, and a burst of brilliance flashed, and when Lu Yu and Ziyan saw it clearly, they found that the two were already sitting in a box.
The area of the box is not large, only six or seven square meters, two chairs and a coffee table, on which there are some not very expensive spirit fruits and tea.
When the two appeared, a maid in the box whispered, "Welcome!" ”
As he spoke, he handed a book-sized information jade plate to Lu Yu and said, "This is the first time for you to participate in the auction of Wanbao Pavilion, please allow me to introduce the rules of the auction to the two of you!" ”
Lu Yu and Ziyan listened to the maid explain the rules of the auction, which was nothing more than buying and leaving, and if they wanted to buy the auction items, they had to pay a certain deposit in advance, but Lu Yu and Ziyan came this time, mainly to barter, and they didn't want to buy any auction items.
Of course, the main reason is that the two of them have no money, and the auction items in the auction are often tens of thousands of spirit stones, Lu Yu only has dozens of spirit stones in his hand, and there are a little more spirit stones in Ziyan's hand, and there are less than a thousand, and even the lowest auction items can't afford to buy, that is, to join in the fun.
