The high priest saw that Gangu Yu was stunned when he looked at the small block on the title page, so he explained: "These lines are not translated, but I think it should be the name of the original owner of this ancient book, and it doesn't hurt if you don't know it." ”

She also thought that Gangu Yu was worried about not being able to read Chinese characters, but now he was so shocked that he couldn't speak. There are many people in the Celestial Empire who call Gan Defeng, but there is only one Gan Defeng from the 81st level of the Agricultural and Technical School in N City. He is not a famous person, nor is he a high-ranking official, just an ordinary senior agronomist.

The point is, he also has a son named Gangu Yu. Then, after his son accidentally traveled to another world, he also found his father's notes here.

What the hell is this! The rich bamboo that crossed with him appeared in the north of the continent, and it was just a matter of being at odds with him. But when he crossed, he didn't have his father's notes by his side!

Gangu Yu looked at the high priest in confusion: "This thing...... How did it end up in your hands?"

"This has been passed down from generation to generation by the high priests of the Natural Forest, thousands of years ago. The high priest saw that Gangu Yu's expression was different, and explained, "Many seniors have practiced the divine skills described in it, but all of them have failed. Everyone said that it was just some joke or conjecture, so it was just treasured as an antique for a long time until ......"

At this, a look of remembrance appeared on the high priest's face. Gangu Yu became more and more anxious: "Until what?"

"Until the previous generation of high priests once accidentally took out this ancient book and was seen by a prophet. The High Priest continued. The so-called prophet is actually the world's honorific title for the time system law god who has surpassed the strength of the tenth order, such a character has long been a legendary existence, and it is worth bragging about for a lifetime to see him.

"Prophet?" asked Ganguyu, "what did he say?"

He said that the book should come from another time and space, and that there was indeed a big secret, a great wealth, in it. When the high priest said this, his expression was a little excited.

What secrets can be in a notebook of agricultural experience? Gan Guyu couldn't help but laugh, pointing to the broken part of the notebook and asking, "This thing has been broken since it was discovered?"

The high priest nodded: "When we got this book back then, we did find that there were already missing pages in it. We can't understand the text in the book, but we still have the wisdom of many sages to translate it. ”

Gangu Yu was full of doubts, how did his father's notebook many years ago travel to the salty and barren continent thousands of years ago? And why did those so-called sages be able to understand Chinese roughly? Wasn't he the only one who came here by accident?

These questions could not be studied for the time being, and Gangu Yu had no choice but to spread his hands and say: "High priest, in fact, this is just a notebook on agricultural production. The techniques described above are true, but unfortunately, this notebook is only a fragment, and some of the details are either missing or the translation is not accurate, so it is of little practical value. ”

But that's not all. Although this notebook records some basic knowledge, it will not be as detailed as a textbook, and will only record some important points. Can you expect a notebook to include such common-sense knowledge as the row spacing of crops?

The content of the notebook itself has certain limitations, and the content in it is as abstract as calculus for kindergarten children for people on the salty continent. Coupled with some flaws, the translation is not very good, which makes this notebook seem like a book of heaven to the high priest.

Of course, even if the content of the notes is fully understood by the people of the Natural Forest, it may be difficult to successfully implement them in practice. Not to mention that the big problem of barren land is difficult to solve, the lack of production tools alone is enough to stump the people on the salty continent. Take grafting as an example, if there is no plastic film that Gangu Yu bought from the store on the operating table, then the grafting can only be tied with straw rope, and the upper end of the scion cannot be sealed, so the success rate of grafting will be greatly discounted.

And the reason why the high priest failed to graft is even simpler. How can it be successful to graft grape branches onto the banyan trees of the Sanaceae family? In Daddy Gan's notes, there is no special indication that the grafted rootstock and scion must have a certain degree of kinship.

After listening to Gangu Yu's explanation, although it was still a little foggy, the high priest still figured out one thing, that is, this "ancient book" preserved in the natural forest for thousands of years did not seem to be of any use, but the young man in front of her was more like a living agricultural textbook.

As for why Gangu Yu can understand so much, he still blames the reason on the great Mother of Nature. The High Priest just looked at him and smiled, and no longer dwelling on the issue, but changed the subject. She took out a sweet potato, and her face was full of admiration: "Mother Nature is above, I have to say, this is the most wonderful food that the old man has ever seen." ”

Gangu Yu smiled: "The beauty in the mouth of the high priest should not refer to the taste of sweet potatoes and its benefits to magicians, but its production, right?"

"Not bad. The High Priest admitted, "The continent has been afflicted by famine for many years, and we magicians have traveled all over the continent all year round to help the people grow food to repel the demonic beasts, which is only a drop in the bucket. But sweet potatoes have the potential to change the status quo on the continent! If it can be spread across the continent, the word famine will be a thing of the past. ”

"We can move forward, but we can't rush it. After a little thought, Gangu Yu mentioned the key, "The promotion of a new thing can never be completed overnight, let alone such a livelihood plan." From the appearance of sweet potatoes to being trusted and accepted by everyone, it must take a process. ”

The high priest was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You are right, the old body was excited for a while, but he ignored such objective factors. Yes, even the knowledge that growing wheat requires a distance to be cultivated, and it takes countless demonstrations to win everyone's trust if you want to promote it, let alone a food that has never been heard of before. ”

Ganguyu continued, "In addition, I am the only one here who can guarantee that the sweet potato seedlings will not be affected by pests and diseases. And it is not easy for me to provide a large number of such seedlings. ”

The salty continent is so vast, if sweet potato cultivation is really popularized, the demand for seedlings will be astronomical. A small number of seedlings can be obtained by consuming gold and mana, but if it is the level of planting sweet potatoes by the whole people, it must be accompanied by the promotion of advanced breeding technology and let farmers breed seedlings on their own.
