Chapter 2: The Mysterious Spring
The small farm yard in front of it, although dilapidated, is in a very good location.
It is backed by a low hill, facing a large flat area of land, and a shallow river channel runs through it.
Meng Zhou can imagine that a long time ago, there were green mountains and green waters here.
The green grassland is full of living animals.
But now, the mountains are bald, the rivers are dry, and there is gravel everywhere.
"Squeak!"
Approaching the wall that was about to collapse, Meng Zhou gently pushed open the door of the small courtyard.
This is the front yard, and the ground is a mixture of bricks and stones, and it is very rough.
Meng Zhou has been an orphan since he was a child, so he doesn't know much about his third uncle.
According to the previous lawyer, when the third uncle was young, he was a very famous interstellar explorer.
This Penglai Star was discovered by the third uncle.
The third uncle also has children, but I heard that the relationship between their father and son is not very good.
In addition, while inheriting Penglai Star, he also needs to bear hundreds of millions of debts.
Therefore, this Penglai star will fall on Meng Zhou's head.
The third uncle lives alone on a fair day, and if he wants to take care of Penglai Star, he naturally has more than enough heart but not enough strength.
"Ahem......"
As soon as the door was opened, a puff of dust came to my nose.
Don't look like it's living alone, but the interior of this house is quite large.
However, most of them are placed with dry wood, and only a small part is miscellaneous for domestic farming.
There is no energy supply here, and there is also a great lack of water, so there is no electricity here.
There is no doubt that so much wood is the energy used by the third uncle in his fair life.
Meng Zhou walked around, and there wasn't much of value here at all.
Even the farming tools used for farming are old and old, and it is estimated that they will be many years old.
He took a quick look, and the most valuable thing here was the private flying spaceship parked in the garage.
However, it is also a very old commodity from a few decades ago.
At present, only scrap is sold to recycling bins.
"Fortunately, it still works!"
Meng Zhou checked it and found that although the spacecraft was old, it was still able to start normally.
If the ship doesn't work, it will be very difficult for him to go somewhere else.
After all, this place is so remote that even Starship can't get there.
It's just that there aren't many energy blocks in the spaceship, and it's barely enough to reach the nearest energy supply station here.
However, this is not a big problem for Meng Zhou.
Because in the store module of the system, there are energy blocks for sale, but the price is much more expensive than the energy supply station.
Of course, there is no problem with using it for emergencies.
Slowly walked to the backyard, his eyes couldn't help but light up.
Because compared to the dry and cracked brown earth outside the yard, the only moist black soil here is so conspicuous.
You can feel the fertility of the land at a glance.
This is the acre of black land that Meng Zhou opened out of the gift package.
Originally, the backyard was fenced off, but because there was no one to take care of it for some time, a large part of it has now collapsed.
All of a sudden, this backyard is connected to the hill behind it.
He had roughly seen the whole yard, except for the old house that could not be inhabited, the terrain here was very good.
Spend some money to find someone to renovate it, and it's a very comfortable place to stay.
At least better than the place he had rented before.
"Sign in successfully and get the mysterious spring water."
"The next sign-in location, Yurongxing."
A burst of golden light flashed in front of Meng Zhou's eyes, and a clear spring emerged from the ground.
He almost forgot that he hadn't signed in yet!
"It's so sweet!!"
For the first time, Meng Zhou felt that water was even better than drinks.
Mystic Spring: Golden, growable
Current Level: 2 (Blessed by Megacore, Level +1)
Utility 1: Improve soil and increase fertility
Utility 2: Accelerate plant growth and improve quality
Seeing the data that appeared in his line of sight, Meng Zhou was stunned for a moment, and then as if he remembered something, he hurriedly looked towards the black earth.
Sure enough!
The surrounding black soil became darker and darker, as if black oil was coming out of it.
Fat flowing oil.
The black soil itself is more fertile than ordinary cultivated land, and it has been blessed by the super giant star core once, and now it is even more fertile when it is moistened by the mysterious spring water again.
As soon as he thought of this, Meng Zhou's eyes suddenly showed a broad avenue.
Most of the food on the market today is matured by scientific means and drugs, and there are few pure natural foods.
As a result, even foods with average taste and quality, as long as they are all natural, are still priceless, even if they are extremely expensive.
And the black soil in his hands, coupled with the watering of the mysterious spring, must be of excellent quality.
You don't have to think about it to know that it's definitely a big deal.
Even he doesn't have to bother to develop Penglai Star, he can pay off his debts just by farming, and even make a fortune with it.
Thinking of this, Meng Zhou quickly wiped his saliva.
"Tsk, this minute is tens of millions of business!"
He looked at the desolation around him, and suddenly regained his composure.
The 50 million on the card gave Meng Zhou infinite confidence.
This land is here, and the initial start-up capital is also available, and there is still something to do about it.
"But ......"
Recall what the lawyer had said to him before.
According to the escrow contract, Meng Zhou, as the heir, must repay the debt of 20 million within the first year, and the amount of the debt repaid every year thereafter shall not be less than 10 million.
In this way, with his current debt plus interest, he will have to repay it for decades.
And according to the income of ordinary people, in this lifetime, they will not earn 10 million money, let alone hundreds of millions.
This is also the reason why all the children of the previous third uncle refused to inherit Penglai Xing.
"20 million is gone all of a sudden!"
Meng Zhou smiled bitterly.
He was still quite distressed, after all, this was the largest amount he had ever seen so far.
"But fortunately, there are still 30 million left, which should be enough."
Meng Zhou muttered to himself.
The tone was full of uncertainty.
After all, building a house and a farm costs a lot of money.
What's more, you have to buy seeds, and trees or something.
The most important thing is that because the infrastructure of Penglai Star is so poor, not only does there be no space communication station, but there is also no electricity.
Don't talk about networking, even if you can't make a phone call.
It is equivalent to saying that he has lost contact with the outside world, which makes Meng Zhou unbearable.
As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.
Transportation is the road, and so is the network.
