Chapter 266: Topic

The next day, Kaichi took advantage of the noon time to come to Orlando.

When Kaichi was talking to Selena about the restaurant yesterday, he talked about the issue of ingredients, and he suddenly remembered that there were a lot of greenhouses built in the academy, and there were a lot of plants from all over the world planted in the greenhouses, and there were a lot of good things in it, at least he found tomatoes - here it is called wolf poison fruit.

Most of these are magic medicinal materials, but there are also many that are not medicinal materials, but they are kept by the teachers of the academy in order to observe the plants in various places, maybe for good looks, or just for observation, among them, there are many kinds of edible ones, and there are many kinds all over the world, and the varieties are rich.

These are all brought by merchants from all over the world, some of them are ordinary local food, and some are because they are good-looking, when they transport goods to the academy, many of them are entrained, because they are rare, so many mages plant these in their own botanical gardens, and the students of the academy take care of them, and they all grow well.

However, the mage is focused on improving his strength, and is not keen on expanding food production and enriching the food basket of the common people, although there are a lot of ingredients gathered here, but there is no intention of promoting it at all.

And this world may be because of magic, or maybe the wheat here has been improved by magic, and the yield of wheat as a staple food is amazing, although it is not as good as the output on the earth in Jiayi's previous life, but the management is much weaker, and even the fertilizer is just the ash of plants and trees burned from the straw left by wheat. When Kaichi first saw wheat, his first reaction was that if it could be grown on the earth, it would definitely cause a food revolution.

Perhaps because of the national conditions, plus Jia Yi's parents were farmers all his life, so he was more sensitive to food.

Jiayi came here this time to ask Orlando to make a match, go to these greenhouses, ask for some seeds, plant them outside, provide raw materials for restaurants, and by the way, ask if you can build a greenhouse in the botanical garden to grow some vegetables and so on.

He came to Orlando, briefly explained his thoughts, and asked, "Teacher, can you help me recommend to the rest of the professors that I can collect some seeds or transplant some plants?"

Orlando looked at Jia Yi and frowned a little: "It's not easy, you have to know, the teacher has spent a lot of effort to collect these medicinal materials, especially many medicinal materials are very precious, you want it, it's not simple." ”

Jia Yi hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, I don't want to collect those precious medicinal herbs or magic plants, I just need to collect some ordinary plants, but there are not many on our side, but they don't need to be too precious." ”

"That's pretty much it. Orlando nodded, "But what's the use of you collecting these?"

"Eat!" Kaichi blurted out.

Orlando's eyes were instantly wrong, you spent so much effort, I still have to owe a favor here, you just want to eat? Jia Yi didn't tell Orlando in detail just now, he was looking for ingredients for his own small shop and preparing to cultivate, but Orlando thought that Jia Yi was going to do some experiments.

Seeing that Orlando's face was wrong, Jia Yi racked his brains, quickly turned his thoughts, and before Orlando spoke, he said: "I want to make a paper on the value of plants in the academy, sort out the use value of these plants, although there are a lot of plants planted in the teachers' greenhouses, but they don't pay much attention to non-magic plants." I'm going to sort through these plants to see which ones are edible, which ones have medicinal value, which ones have ornamental value, and which ones have little value. Moreover, those with edible value can be cultivated and promoted, and more can be planted. ”

Jia Yi secretly glanced at Orlando, saw that his face softened a lot, and continued: "The academy has not used these crops at all, if it is popularized, it can greatly enrich the diet of the common people and increase their rations, so that even in a bad harvest year, they can survive." ”

Orlando frowned: "This, it should be the emperor's minister who manages the country should be concerned, you should spend more energy on magic now, magic is the fundamental." ”

The magic of this world is not used for civilians at all, and the mages are still relatively self-conscious, although the magic has now taken root on the continent, it is still not a civilization, just a mutant parasitic on human civilization. If the civilians at the bottom do not exist and human civilization dies, then the mages will gradually disappear and cannot exist alone.

But the mages of this world don't seem to be aware of this situation, at least as far as Kaichi sees, all mages are indifferent to civilians, and they never have any intention of making some magical inventions related to people's lives. The vast majority of spell research is geared towards lethality.

Force is definitely a useful thing, but it's not all, of course Kaichi won't let go of magic research, let alone refuse lethal spells, but in the gap of magic research, if you can make some good changes around you, it would be really good.

You know, on the earth, not to mention changing the surroundings, even if you change yourself, you don't necessarily have that perseverance, and there is no such favorable environment as now.

Jia Yi said: "Teacher, of course my magic will not be left behind, this is also a change of mind, as a hobby, it is not useless." ”

"It's good that you understand it yourself, I don't interfere with the student's choice, you just need to be clear and accept the result of doing so. ”

Orlando looked at Jia Yi and knew that what he said was a little wet, but he still agreed, although there is no master in this world to lead the door, and the practice is in the individual, but there are still similar thoughts. The teacher has at least one role as a guide, especially in the wizarding world, and the teacher can be considered a good teacher without hiding himself, and he can't ask for more.

Jia Yi asked again: "Teacher, can I apply to build a greenhouse in the college's botanical garden to cultivate the selected good seeds." ”

The so-called cultivation of good seeds is actually that he wants to have his own vegetable garden, but the reason is always to find a little taller.

In fact, there is a lot of wasteland around the college, and it will not be managed to find a small col to open up the wasteland academy by itself, but these places are not protected, and the area where the college town is located is safe, but it is too late to build a house, how can it be possible to leave a vegetable field. Outside the college, the botanical garden is the safest place.

The Botanical Garden's protective circle is connected to the Academy, but in fact they are two different circles, independent of each other, and although the Botanical Garden has a weaker security level, it is much safer than the wild, and it can also prevent the destruction of wild beasts. Otherwise, if you plant a little land, you will be arched off by a wild boar.

Orlando didn't even think about it, so he said, "You still want to build a greenhouse, it's impossible, if you want, you can find a hill and build as big as you want." ”

Kaichi couldn't help but be a little disappointed, although when he put forward this opinion, he foresaw that Orlando might not agree, but he was really rejected, and he still felt a little lost.

Seeing him like this, Orlando couldn't help but say: "I also have a greenhouse in the botanical garden, I don't grow anything, I will use it for you when the time comes, you can plant whatever you want, but remember to protect the original herbs in it, and there can be no damage." ”

"Thank you, teacher. Jia Yi hurriedly said.

Orlando looked at Jiayi, and thought of his student Imu, who was his favorite student at the time, and his future was the most optimistic about him, but he didn't expect that before he was promoted to white-robed mage, such a serious thing happened, and his future was ruined. Now he has taught another excellent student, not only does Yimu talk about Jiayi as the person who fulfills his wishes, but Orlando also transfers a large part of his love for Yimu to Jiayi.

Orlando looked at Kaichi and said, "Since you have this heart, then do it seriously, in addition to the plants in the botanical garden, you can also classify the plants on the mountains around the academy." You go to Professor Gwen, she's proficient in pharmacy and has a lot of research in botany, and she'll be interested in your ideas. I hope that by the end of the semester, you will be able to produce some results. ”

"Okay, teacher. Jiayi nodded solemnly.

It's been more than three months since the semester started, and the whole semester is nine months, although it seems that there is still half a year to go, but in fact, it is not much time. Because the growth of plants has its own cycle, now with the addition of mountain plants around the college, the range is much larger.

Jia Yi's time is not as abundant as he imagined, and he still has to go to class, at least to ensure his grades, otherwise Orlando will not let him go.
