Chapter 417: Plant Department Great Magic III
"Not far away, it's just outside the city at the Wheat Ear Farm, you can find it as soon as you go out of the city and ask!"
The guy didn't hide it, he directly told the old man and a few people about the origin of these fruits, anyway, this is news that everyone knows, even if they don't say it, they can find a few shops and inquire about it.
"Wheat Ear Farm?" neither the old man nor several disciples had heard of this place.
"Yes, that's it, as long as you go to the wheat ear farm, you can see that there are several glass greenhouses in the village, these melons and fruits are grown there, in addition to melons and fruits, there are also vegetables, but the store is not open. ”
Even an ordinary fruit shop guy knows that these fruits are grown from it, and it seems that this is not a secret, it is already known to the public.
In such a place where the magic elements of the plant system are abundant, the magicians of the magic academy don't know?
The old man and the others faintly felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't say what was wrong.
But whether it's right or wrong, I still have to go and see it, the old man took out another gold coin and threw it to the guy: "Thank you, little brother." Then with a wave of his hand, he led the group out of the fruit shop.
The man was overjoyed, just now he secretly calculated to himself, these people didn't eat a few pieces of fruit at all, and the dozen or so gold coins they gave before were surplus, and the old man threw him another one when he left, and now he made a fortune.
When they came out of the fruit shop, everyone was in no mood to go shopping, and they hurried to the place called Wheat Ear Farm.
The two boys were also picked up by Hobart and another man, and they walked quickly back to the alley where the carriage had been.
"Master Magician, are you back?" the two coachmen were resting, when they suddenly saw a few people turn around, and hurriedly put their horses on the wheels again.
"Go, go out of town, and find a place called Wheat Ear Farm. The old man put the three children in the carriage and got into it himself.
"Wheat Ear Farm? I know, it's a big farm in the south of the city. "One of the coachmen was often around the imperial capital and was familiar with the villages.
"That's good, you don't have to ask for directions, let's go. The old man sat down and urged.
In addition, the four disciples of the old man also got into another carriage, and the carriage in which the old man was riding opened the road, turned back along the road, and drove towards the city gate in the south of the city.
......
The wheat harvest farm is not far from the south gate of the imperial capital, but it is not too close, after the carriage left the city gate, it drove for more than half an hour, and the glass greenhouses could already be seen standing in the distance from afar.
As the carriage approached, except for the three children, several people had already sensed the botanical magical elements in the glass greenhouse.
"Strange, there are some ordinary people here, is it true that there are no magicians who have discovered the abnormality here?" the old man wondered.
The carriage drove directly into the wheat ear farm, but when he just entered the farm and wanted to go to the glass greenhouse, he was blocked by several farmers.
"Stop, stop!" shouted the two young peasants.
The coachman did not know why, but when he saw someone intercepting him, he had to stop the car.
"What's wrong?
The two sides were about ten meters apart, and the coachman shouted loudly.
The peasants took a few steps forward and said loudly, "No outsiders are allowed here, so you better go back!"
"Uh......" The coachman lost his mind and looked into the carriage.
The old man and the four disciples in the carriage had already heard the movement outside, and anyway, it was already very close to the glass shed, so they simply walked out of the car.
"Excuse me, why can't you enter here?"
The old man took the three children and walked straight to the peasants.
Hobert and Rita also got out of the carriage, looking at the glass shed not far in front of them, and their hearts were a little excited.
It seems that someone here should have discovered it, but it should have just been discovered, and it has not yet reached the ears of the magicians, so they will intercept outsiders and want to keep this secret.
If you guessed correctly, it should be the owner of a local farm, probably a nobleman, who wants to make more money from the delicious fruits and vegetables grown in this place where plant magic is very abundant.
As long as you want gold coins, it's easy to do, although there are not too many gold coins for a few of you, but there is a magic academy behind them!
Rybert has full confidence in his heart, no matter what level of nobleman he is, if he reports the situation here to the Academy of Magic, even if he smashes it with gold coins, he can buy this treasure land!
The peasants who were blocking the way saw that it was an old man who was questioning, and in order to show respect, he hurriedly lowered his tone.
"Old man, this is the experimental field of the Wheat Ear Farm, and outsiders are not allowed to enter. A farmer, who looked to be in his forties, stepped forward to answer the old man's words.
"Oh, outsiders are not allowed to enter?, so which nobleman's territory belongs to?" the old man asked slowly, not in a hurry.
"This is the property of the Marquis de Melward, if you want to visit you can contact someone from the Marquis Palace to bring you over. The farmer replied with a hint of pride.
"Isn't the Melward family the title of a viscount? When did it become a marquis?" The old man had heard of the Melward family, which was mainly business-oriented and could almost be regarded as the richest man in the imperial capital, but he had never dealt with it. And Shun
"It's last year, but it's not for us to know what it is, so you better go back, we don't let people we don't know. ”
Although the farmer said it politely, he didn't let a few people go forward to see the glass greenhouses.
"Teacher, why are you so polite with them, just rely on a few of them ......" The young girl Rita was a little anxious when she saw that these peasants were just blocking them from entering.
She herself is a native of the imperial capital, and it is only because of her botanical magic talent that she is accepted as a disciple by the old man, and she has to go to the primeval forest with the old man every year to cultivate.
Not to mention that there were only a few hundred tribesmen in that primeval forest, and the prosperity level was not comparable to that of the imperial capital at all, and it took three months to travel just to come and go, which was simply miserable.
If this place really naturally had abundant plant-based magic elements, she could cultivate here, which is why she was in such a hurry.
But before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the old man.
"Rita, don't worry. ”
The old man was still unhurried, and asked seriously again, "Are we really not allowed to enter?"
"Old man, it's not that we don't let you in, but the farm has this rule, so don't embarrass us. ”
"Okay, then you come and see this. ”
The old man walked to the side of the road, bent down, pinched a small piece of a random plant, and then stretched out his hand and placed it in front of the eyes of several peasants.
The peasants didn't know why, and looked at the old man strangely.
In the old man's hand is just an ordinary wild fruit called "Luo Luo Guo", the taste is a little bitter, ordinary humans do not eat it, but some domestic animals like it.
It is now autumn, and the fruit of the Rollo fruit is far from ripe, and only a few small grains grow on it.
"Old man, you are ......"
Before the farmer could finish speaking, he saw that only a small branch of "Luo Luo Guo" suddenly began to grow, and it grew longer and longer, and gradually several new branches appeared, and the branches continued to grow, pulling out young leaves and bearing fruit.
The fruit turns from green to purple, and then it explodes with a gentle "bang", and the seeds inside are sprinkled.
And all this happened in a total of no more than a minute, so that the small branch picked by hand went through the whole life of the plant from growth to sprinkling.
"Ah, you're a magician!"
Several peasants hurriedly bowed to the old man and the four disciples.
"How's it going, shall we go over and have a look now?" said the old man, smiling softly, and looking at the peasants with interest, for what had just been a little trick for him.
"Of course, no problem, shall I accompany you over to have a look?" said the middle-aged farmer.
"Okay, if there's anything you don't understand, I can ask you. The old man said indifferently, it doesn't matter if there is anyone with him anyway, as long as he can go to the glass greenhouse to have a look.
The middle-aged peasant seemed to be a little shorter, and made a "please" gesture with his hands, and the old man walked forward with his three children and four disciples with his head held high.
As he walked, the old man asked the farmer who led the way, seemingly casually, "What's your name?"
"Back to Master Magician, my name is Bud," replied the farmer honestly.
"Well, we came here when we saw some very good fruits sold in the south of the city, are those fruits grown in the glass greenhouse in front?"
"Are you talking about a very tasty, very large fruit?"
"That's right. ”
"That's it, it must have been grown in the glass greenhouse of our wheat ear farm. ”
As if to confirm what he said, as soon as he finished speaking, a convoy of carriages drove out of the glass shed not far away.
There were more than a dozen wagons in the convoy, some of which were loaded with a large quil, and some of which carried three or four large peace fruits.
There are also half large weadows, but there is no way that the weadows are too big, so they can only be cut from the middle and loaded by two wagons.
Even though he knew that several of them were magicians, the farmer's face was still proud.
"Then why haven't I heard of these fruits before, and have they only been grown here recently?"
"Yes, it's only been planted for half a year. The farmer replied without thinking.
Sure enough, as a few people guessed, this is the latest discovery that growing fruits can absorb plant-based magic elements, and the time is still very short, and it has not reached the ears of those magicians in the magic academy.
The old man was overjoyed, and then asked, "Did the Melward family tell you not to allow outsiders to enter?"
