Chapter 25: Planning
Three days later, the deacon of Linggu Hall came to collect Linggu as promised, and Zhang Di beat a total of 124 catties in these three points, handed over 100 catties, and successfully passed the assessment.
22 catties of the remaining 24 catties are of good quality, and the other 2 catties are damaged by the fight that night, the chaff is stained with fishy blood, and the grains are contaminated.
In this way, Zhang Di became an official Lingnong, but he was not happy at all.
The new round of tasks is to plant at least 150 catties of Linggu and hand it over, and if you can plant 200 catties, you will be promoted to a first-class spirit farmer, and you can expand the field area to one acre. If you can't grow 150 catties of Linggu, you will be fined and confiscated the monthly profits, and if you can't complete the task for another half a year, you will be expelled from the sect.
In other words, as a Lingnong, he has a certain assessment task every six months, and if he passes the test, he will continue to stay in office, otherwise he will accept various punishments until he is expelled.
But correspondingly, Zhang Di's monthly interest silver has also risen from the original three taels to thirty taels, plus the savings in the previous half a year, at this time he has accumulated more than thirty taels of silver in his hands.
However, he doesn't dare to spend it at will, there are many places to use money at the moment, as a new round of Linggu planting, there are many spending items to consider:
First, you need to buy spiritual fertilizer to strengthen the soil and prepare for the next sowing.
Second, it is necessary to purchase thorn tree seeds to enhance the perimeter protection of the spiritual field, so as to prevent the intrusion of demon wild boars.
Third, it is necessary to purchase a rolling dragon plough to increase the yield, otherwise it will be difficult to grow 150 catties of Linggu in three points.
Fourth, and most unexpectedly, the need to replace the array disc with a new one.
Fifth, Zhang Di was away from home for half a year, and at this time it was approaching the end of the year, the sect allowed the outer disciples to go home to visit relatives, and as one of the three people in the village who sent him to apprentice with the immortal master, he had to prepare a lot of New Year's goods to go home, which was also a small expense that could not be ignored.
After handing over the Linggu, Zhang Di stayed at home by recuperating from his injuries, so he listed all the expenses one by one, discussed carefully with the old donkey, and planned to plant the Linggu in the spring of the next year.
The old donkey originally planned to take his granddaughter away as soon as Linggu handed it over, but as soon as the big golden tooth died, Hao Yu temporarily stopped and stopped bothering his granddaughter;
Fortunately, it was the end of October, and there were still more than three months before the planting in February, so it was enough time to prepare.
At this time, Zhang Di was reclining on the bed, with a wet towel on his forehead, writing and calculating with a pen and paper in his hand, and muttering constantly in his mouth, looking very devoted.
Lu Tian'er on the side stirred the red date longan soup with a spoon, gently tested the temperature with a red and tender mouth, scooped up a spoonful, and sent it to the open mouth, seeing him turn his head and drink it, the little girl's bright eyes revealed a trace of joy.
The old donkey's head held a dry tobacco stick, wearing an old jacket, sat by the threshold and smoked a dry tobacco, and from time to time looked sideways at the two of them, with a smile on his face, and thought: "This pair is really like a little couple! Hehe, my old donkey head is blessed." ”
"Master, I calculated carefully, if Lingfei buys the giant crane dung of the sect, it will cost thirty-six catties, and ten taels of silver per catty is three hundred and sixty taels.
Thorn tree seeds need to be planted every one foot, and I need at least twenty seeds in total for three points, and each seed is fifty taels of silver, which is one thousand taels of silver, which is 10 spirit stones.
There are two cubs of the rolling dragon, each with 3 spirit stones, a total of 6 spirit stones.
I don't know if I can repair that array plate, if I can't repair it, it will take 30 spirit stones to buy a new array disk......" Speaking of this, Zhang Di showed a wry smile and turned his face to look at the old donkey's head.
The old donkey nodded and said, "It's so much, since you want to do it in one step, run for 200 catties of output, and impact a first-class Lingnong, these things are essential." Otherwise, with less fertilizer, the thorn tree seeds will be reduced by half, and you will only buy one of the Rolling Dragon cubs, and you will be able to spend half of the cost left. ”
"Yes, if there is no matter of the array, the money from selling Linggu is almost enough to cover the expenses, but the cost of this array is not expected. Zhang Di smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He has already calculated, the harvest of the spirit valley this time is the autumn spirit valley, because of the good taste, the spiritual power contained in it is higher than the spring spirit valley, so often at the end of the year, the outer side of the market can be sold for 1 spirit stone per catty. In addition to 2 catties of seed preparation, the remaining 22 catties can be sold for 22 spirit stones, which is basically enough to cover the expenses except for the array plate.
"By the way, Master, please help deal with that demon boar, how is it now?" Zhang Di thought of this thing, and hurriedly asked the old donkey.
"The flesh and bones have been separated, I helped you sell it to some body refiners of the sect, they urgently need this thing to strengthen their qi and blood, and they snatched it up as soon as they took it out, and sold it for more than 500 taels of silver, and I will help you exchange it for spirit stones." The old donkey smiled and took out a small cloth bag and threw it over.
Zhang Di took a look, and sure enough, there were five shiny spirit stones inside, and he couldn't help but be happy, it seems that this demon boar is really valuable!
I heard the old donkey head say again: "I didn't sell the most essential tenderloin of the demon wild boar, but I kept thirty catties to replenish your qi and blood." There are also the most valuable wild boar skins and that pair of tusks, I sell them at a cheap price in the sect, and in another month it will be the end of the year, and the body refiners of the nearby sects will gather in Nanfeng Gufang City, and there will be a big market.
You take your Linggu, as well as wild boar skins and tusks, and sell them, and if anyone fights for them, hehe...... I estimate that you can sell these three things for at least 32 spirit stones, or even 35 spirit stones. ”
Zhang Di's eyes lit up, and he shouted: "So much, then after deducting the 20 spirit stones in addition to the array disk, I can still have at least 15 spirit stones left, is this money enough to repair the array disk?"
The old donkey's head spread his hands, "It's hard to say, you have to go to Deacon Zhang to ask, if it's not enough, you can reduce the cost by half, 25 is estimated to be enough for you to buy a cheaper array plate, enough to pass the assessment of 150 catties in the coming year." ”
"That's all there is to it. Zhang Di nodded helplessly.
"Grandpa!" At this time, Lu Tian'er, who had been listening, was unhappy and shouted, "You can help Senior Brother!
"Yo! Yo! What a big breath!" the old donkey glanced at her, "You picked up the money for nothing to be a grandfather?
"Grandpa, senior brother is not an outsider, you can help him!" Lu Tian'er pouted and ran over to shake his arm.
The old donkey still shook his head, and said to Zhang Dizhengse: "Apprentice, it's not that the master doesn't help you, but I want you to know that in this Qingyue Mountain, the spiritual farmers are all self-sufficient, how much harvest do you want? Do you have such a big capital? Do you have enough emergency money and food to deal with accidents that may occur at any time? All this requires you to plan carefully."
I think our Lingnong should work steadily and steadily, stay up for ten or twenty years, and become a three-grade Lingnong. Hey...... By then, it would have been much richer. Don't be too ambitious now, once you lose the bottom line, no one will be kind enough to save you!"
"Yes, the master's teaching is right, the apprentice will try it by himself first, if it doesn't work, the cost will be halved, and the output of 150 catties will be reduced first!"
"Hey, that's right!"
As soon as the old donkey said this, Zhang Di's face suddenly changed greatly, and he held his stomach with both hands and screamed, his skin was flushed, and drops of blood began to ooze, accompanied by a fishy smell.
