Chapter Ninety-Eight: Perfecting the Farm

Shen Chi thought about it again and again, if he planned to run the small farm behind the house with his father, he would have to solve the current problem of water shortage, and he couldn't go to the river every day to pick it.

I silently calculated in my heart, as long as I raised the spring by three or four levels, I could barely supply all the water, but now the spring cost more than 100,000 per level, and it was no longer realistic to rely on Shen Chi to sneak into the mountain to extract the essence spiritual liquid.

As a last resort, Shen Chi set his eyes on his own acre of salvia, which had been born for a year and a half.

The systematic evaluation of the salvia is a high-quality salvia, in the system standard, the aura exchanged for wood plants is far more than that of grasses, but a salvia can exchange more aura than ordinary shrubs.

At this time, only two or three months have passed since the last time ginseng was sold, although Shen Chi was born every three or five times, but at this time, it only grew to the size of ordinary salvia, even if it was picked according to the general label, it was reluctant, but Shen Chi couldn't wait at this time, he urgently needed aura to further improve the farm.

Picking a salvia to break off the large ginseng, the small rhizomes drawn out next to it continued to be planted, extracted with refining, a ginseng exchanged for 30,000 aura, although not more than the mature salvia, but also much stronger than refining a wild miscellaneous tree.

Shen Chi secretly went to his ginseng garden to dig up a few salvia, picked the big ones and planted them as soon as he was free.

For example, in half a month, almost the entire ginseng field was dug up, and only 300 salvia could be refined, and the rest of Shen Chi, who was too small, had to be replanted.

After refining all the 300 ginseng, he got 300 drops of essence and spiritual liquid, because he would not be able to extract the essence of spiritual liquid for a long time after that, so he put ten drops of essence into the well, and replaced the rest with aura, and obtained a total of 5.6 million aura.

The first time he raised the spring to level 15, he consumed 650,000 spiritual energy at once. The farm's essence refining ability has been increased to 1900.

Taking advantage of the fact that the aura is enough now, Shen Chi ruthlessly exchanged the leyline.

Leyline Lv0 (0/1000000): Farm building, upgradeable. It needs to be used with architectural drawings. Function: Purify the air of the farm, which can refine the essence of plants and trees produced by the farm into aura. Fusion planting skills can shorten the ripening cycle of crops on the farm. At the same time, it is also a monitoring system for the farm, which can monitor the fertility, temperature and humidity of the farm soil. Upgrades activate new features.

After reading the introduction of the leyline, although Shen Chi felt a pain in his flesh, he still felt a little comforted in his heart, and the benefits of being expensive were not unreasonable.

Looking at the aura value required for upgrading, the long list of zero Shen Chi immediately extinguished the heart of upgrading, and his aura had to be used to upgrade the manure pool.

The leyline was black, more than a foot long like a branch, and a new architectural drawing was driven into the wasteland contracted by his own family.

Shen Chi felt a slight shock to the ground under his feet, and then the air seemed to become fresher, and a system prompt sounded in his head: [Ding! Activate the leyline, increase the refining capacity of the farm's grass and tree essence by 1000, and turn on the farm monitoring function. 】

Monitoring features? Shen Chi hurriedly opened the system panel, and the air temperature, humidity, fertility of the land, where watering is needed, and where fertilizer needs to be applied are all clearly marked.

"It's easier to manage the farm." Shen Chi said secretly in his heart.

Seeing that there were still more than 3.8 million spiritual qi, Shen Chi directly raised the manure pool to level 20, there was no way, the land contracted by his family was too barren and needed a lot of fertilizer.

……

【Ding! The manure pond was successfully upgraded, and the 20-level manure pond produced 21 catties of spiritual fertilizer per day, and the daily refining capacity of the farm increased by 100. 】

After upgrading the manure pond, he spent 440,000 spiritual energy to bury a boundary monument in each of the four corners of his ginseng garden, and he could accurately water his ginseng field in the future.

After dividing his own ginseng field, the system reminded Shen Chi: [Is this land classified as a test site? 】

Shen Chi was stunned for a moment and then chose yes, and this land immediately had a connection with the Agricultural Science Institute in the system.

Open the Institute of Agricultural Sciences, a light screen immediately appeared in my mind, which showed the growth of each salvia, zooming the picture closer, and clicking on one of them, the scanning function of the Institute of Agricultural Sciences can even completely display the internal gene chain of this salvia.

That's where the Institute of Agricultural Sciences really comes in! Seeing this scene, Shen Chi was surprised in his heart, and finally understood the true use of his planting technique.

This skill is completely prepared for scientific research, what is the most lacking in cultivated crops? It's time!

Sometimes it takes at least a year for a variety to come out from planting to maturity, and if you have this skill, it will greatly shorten the time for experimentation.

No wonder the planting technique is very limited in terms of both the ability to spawn and the area, even if Shen Chi has now risen to level 54, even if he adds all the talent points to his physique and life, what can be spawned is only two or three acres, and it turns out that this skill is simply prepared for scientific research.

If you want to increase the yield and income of crops on a large scale, you have to find a way to improve the manure pond.

There are still more than 1.4 million spiritual qi left, and Shen Chi doesn't dare to upgrade indiscriminately, so he has to keep it for emergencies.

After finishing the farm, Shen Chi returned to the front yard, and the roar of the blade machine came from the workshop, mixed with the laughter of everyone from time to time.

Seeing that his aunt's business was getting better and better, Shen Chi came to the room with a smile.

There was no Sun Tao in the room, and the half-flipped textbook was spread out on the table, thinking that he had gone out to play with his friends in the village. sink

Chi himself took out a book borrowed from the Tuhui Library and read it, and the long-term brushing of knowledge points has made Shen Chi develop the habit of reading books, which school does not brush knowledge points now, and this habit is still retained.

After watching for more than an hour, Shen Chi put down his textbook and came to the kitchen when it was time to make dinner, but he still didn't see his father.

Shen Chi felt strange in his heart, now he was in charge of the dinner of his godmother and other nearly fifty people, even if he had something to go out, he had to say hello.

Seeing that Shen Chi was cooking alone but there was no trace of Shen Changlin, Liu Cuihua sent two female workers to help.

Halfway through the meal, I saw Shen Changlin coming back with a load of sweet potato vines.

Everyone was curious and asked him what had happened.

"In the past few years, wild hunting has come out to harm people again, and the sweet potatoes I planted on the two acres of wasteland at the foot of Qi Mountain have been spoiled by those animals." After that, Shen Changlin angrily put down the sweet potatoes and went into the kitchen to help chop vegetables and cook.

"Dad, I told you, the land at the foot of Mount Qi is far away, and it is not easy to take care of it, so I asked you not to plant." Shen Chi took the opportunity to say.
