Chapter 125: A Harvest (Seeking Reading)
Three months later, Roman looked at the wheat fields with a smug expression.
Due to the excellent climate, the wheat of the free city-state grows four times a year, and the fields and seeds have been improved, and the most scientific planting methods are used, so that the yield of one season is equivalent to that of others in a year.
Roman thought proudly in his heart: "I am the otherworldly version of Grandpa Yuan!" ”
Then, at his command, hundreds of puppets with scythes harvested efficiently, and soon the grain was piled up in the warehouse.
The puppet is linked to Roman's consciousness, and the consciousness is hosted by the chip, allowing the puppet to work automatically without any thought at all.
This saved Roman and Joss a lot of time, allowing them to concentrate on cultivation and increase the degree of atomization.
But the progress was touching, and the two meditated for three months, and they didn't even roll the sheets, and the atomization degree increased by 0.1 percentage points.
According to the speed, in a few decades, don't think about atomization to eighty.
Therefore, essentia crystallization must be obtained.
As his thoughts flickered, Josie's voice sounded in his ears: "Roman, the linen garment has been put into storage, and the puppet on my side has nothing to do, so let's go to your place to help." ”
Roman nodded, and with a thought, the puppet from Joss's workshop joined the harvesting team, and the harvesting speed was increased even more.
The two looked at the harvest of supplies, and a sense of satisfaction arose, and Joss leaned on Roman's shoulder: "Suddenly I feel that this kind of life is not bad..."
Roman sneered: "It's just good for the time being, the upper echelons will change their ways to toss us." ”
The situation of the wizards of the free city-states is a bit like that of the capitalists under the red flag on the earth, who, although they hold the wealth and the means of production, are not the ruling class.
The upper echelons not only wooed them, but also guarded against suppression, resulting in a great sense of insecurity.
Just like Roman and Joss, they say that they are landlords, but they have to complete the production targets, and the raw materials and sales are determined by the top.
If the production target is not completed, the accumulated three times will be sacrificed alive and fed to the King Eater.
At this time, the grain had been harvested and loaded into the warehouse, and Roman said, "We will not go back to the house tonight, but live in the warehouse." ”
Joss wondered, "Why?" ”
Roman said coldly: "Someone's output is not up to standard, and the dog jumps off the wall in a hurry to grab something..."
Joss nodded, her expression suddenly became lonely, Roman asked the reason, Joss said:
"I can't imagine that a noble wizard has been reduced to the extent of stealing and robbing for a few catties of food."
Roman smiled slightly:
"What's not to understand about this, there is a political fist in the barrel of a gun, the king level has the strength of a third-level wizard, as long as it is willing, it can kill all wizards at any time."
"It's just that in order to kill more wizards and attract more wizards to come, it doesn't do that, and only kills people within the rules."
"It's called... Sustainable Fishing for Everything! ”
Joss asked again, "In that case, Roman, do you hate this place?" ”
Roman shook his head and said: "What's annoying, as long as it doesn't stand in my way to becoming stronger, there's nothing to hate, as long as a person has ideals, he can endure any kind of life!" ”
In the warehouse, the grain was piled up into a mountain, and the two sat on the "top of the mountain", Joss leaned on Roman and said softly: "As long as I am by your side, I can endure any kind of life!" ”
At this moment, Roman's eyes froze, and he said softly: "It's here!" ”
Subsequently, Joss also found out, and said coldly: "Even the third-level apprentice dares to come and steal things, it's just looking for death!" I went and killed him, screwed his head off, stuck it in a stake, and warned the others. ”
Roman waved his hand, signaling not to be impulsive, and said with a smile: "If you really want to do that, I just set up a witch array, why wait for him here." ”
Joss was puzzled and asked, "What should we do with him?" ”
Roman smiled mysteriously and said, "Let's wait and see!" ”
At the same time, a figure stooped over and sneaked into the barn, his farmland had been plagued by insects for three consecutive quarters, and the grain production had been reduced and the production target was not met.
Tomorrow the grain collector will come, and if he can't get the food, there will be only a dead end, so he decided to take the risk.
However, before he could take two steps in the barn, a bolt of illumination exploded above his head, and the grim faces of the two Roman and Roman flashed on the mountain-like pile.
The aura of the first-level wizard spread, and the thief collapsed to the ground in fright.
"Rao... Spare your life! Spare your life! ”
In the face of two first-level wizards, he was only a third-level apprentice who was tortured and killed, and he couldn't even run, so he immediately threw himself to the ground and asked for forgiveness.
At this time, Roman asked quietly, "Are you short of food?" ”
The thief stammered his situation, and sold it badly, and Roman smiled and replied:
"Since they are all hard-working people, it is not difficult for you to give you some food..."
The thief's eyes immediately lit up with a light of hope, and he immediately knelt down and thanked, "Thank you, Lord Wizard!" Your great kindness to me..."
"Humph! I'm not done! ”
His words were interrupted by a cold snort, and Roman said coldly: "Food can't be given to you for nothing, you have to pay the price, you know?" ”
"Yes, yes, please!" The thief hurriedly agreed.
Roman said lightly: "Essentia crystals, have you heard of them?" ”
The thief nodded hurriedly: "I've heard that the wizard made a product based on the principle of the scarlet vortex." ”
Roman continued: "Well, if you want food, you can exchange it for essentia crystals, ten catties of grain, for one catty of essentia crystals!" ”
The thief was dumbfounded, although essentia crystals are not rare, they also need magic stones to buy, in the Academy Alliance, a magic stone can be exchanged for millions of catties of food.
But in Roman's case, it's as if it's reversed.
But knowing that it was a robbery, the thief didn't dare to be dissatisfied at all, so he could only be embarrassed: "There are not so many small ones at the moment, and I won't be able to get together for a while, but the grain collector will come tomorrow..."
"It's okay," Roman smiled softly, and gave a suggestion, "I can accept credit, but I need to swear to the Eye of Judgment!" ”
The situation is stronger than people, the thief can only reluctantly accept it, after the contract is set, Roman said:
"Tell other wizards about the situation here, you can exchange essentia crystals for food, and for each one introduced, I will give you a 5% reduction in debt."
After the thief left, Joss covered her mouth and chuckled: "Roman, you are too dark, exchanging food for wizard materials is a robbery!" ”
Roman shrugged: "I'm doing good deeds, if I do this, they won't have to die, how can it be said to be robbery?" ”
At this time, Joss asked, "But how much are you going to lend?" Do you want the original promotion? ”
Roman smiled: "Don't worry, we don't have a good reputation, we won't have many people coming tonight, and we won't be able to borrow much food, just beat our reputation." ”
Then a total of three waves of thieves came, one of which was a first-level wizard, who planned to rob openly after being exposed, and was unceremoniously killed by the two.
After the remaining two waves were discovered, they all knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, signed a contract with Roman, and when the next day came, Roman harvested a pile of essentia crystals.
With this pile of crystals, their atomization can be increased by a bit.
"Open the door! Harvest the grain! ”
Just when the two of them were proud, the grain collector arrived.
