Chapter 12 The Great Sage Cheng Ying
As he became more famous, some people would naturally feel unhappy, so some people made things difficult for him, saying that he likes to eat watermelon, but he is too lazy to spit out watermelon seeds, and asked Chengying if he had any solution.
They even made this matter a big deal, and it was known all over the city. Everyone knew that this was just making things difficult for others. It would take a lot of boredom to think of eating watermelon without spitting out the seeds.
Don't eat it if you don't want to spit out the seeds! After all, watermelons grow from seeds, so how could they not have seeds? Most people in Tiandou City have benefited from Cheng Ying and are complaining about him, but they can't think of a solution.
However, Chengying just smiled indifferently and asked a familiar porter to pick two watermelons from his melon field outside the city.
Seedless watermelons are actually not difficult to obtain. As long as you cross a tetraploid watermelon with a diploid watermelon, you can get a triploid seedless watermelon.
In order to make it easier to eat fruits, Chengying transplanted an entire orchard outside the city and handed it over to nearby farmers to help take care of it. He had tried this method for all kinds of seedless fruits, among which watermelons were the easiest.
Cheng Ying is quite skilled in extracting colchicine with alcohol. After several experiments, he found the concentration that doubles the chromosomes. He originally planned to sell the seedless watermelon as a luxury product, but who knew that someone actually bumped into the muzzle of the gun?
.
After the porter brought two watermelons, Cheng Ying cut the watermelon open in front of everyone, revealing the bright red flesh without seeds. The person who asked the question was so excited that his eyes almost popped out of his head.
Everyone else was also in shock. Only the little loli who had been inseparable from him seemed to be used to it. She picked up half of the watermelon without seeds and ate it, completely unaware that this was a miracle in the eyes of everyone.
As we all know, any plant can be grown from the seeds of any plant. Pumpkins cannot be grown from watermelon seeds, but what kind of seedless watermelon is grown? In their view, this simply goes against the inherent principles of heaven and earth.
.
If before, people looked at Cheng Ying as if they were looking at a great sage, then now they are looking at gods...
Cheng Ying also took this opportunity to sell seedless watermelon as a luxury product. Although this kind of melon may not be more delicious, its quality is obviously not on the same level as those with seeds.
And the people who buy it can only be willing to be slaughtered, otherwise what to do? This melon has no seeds, how can you still grow it yourself? Are you kidding? There is no way to start!
Cheng Ying's reputation has naturally reached the ears of the current emperor. When the emperor heard that this man was a living god, he wanted to call him into the court as an official. However, it was obvious that Cheng Ying would not become a slave.
The emperor secretly sent several experts to investigate, but after they all failed to come back, he guessed that Cheng Ying was also a powerful soul master. He had no choice but to treat him with courtesy and drooled at the sight.
The people in Tiandou City have almost figured it out. Cheng Ying seems to be only interested in improving living conditions. He doesn't care much about national affairs or treasure rights.
Over time, I also know which questions will be answered and which questions will be kicked out directly.
But there are still some weird things, such as some people who got Mr. Jiao from Cheng Ying. Although he was embarrassed by this problem, he had to say that this was a way to change his life under limited conditions.
It's better. In line with the principle of not destroying one's own brand, we still let these people solve the problem.
Gradually, people became accustomed to the existence of such a great sage. No one knew whether he was powerful or not, but he gained unanimous respect from all walks of life.
Even if some people whose business has been damaged because of him come to him for questioning, he can point them out and make more money in the future.
It's just that ordinary people don't know how much money Cheng Ying actually makes. Although he uses outsourcing and commission methods for most of his business, the wealth he has accumulated in more than a year is enough to keep him in business.
Tiandou City bought a warehouse to barely stock it. He was definitely the kind of wealthy businessman who could enrich the country by killing people.
But Cheng Ying rarely went out, and no one knew what he was doing in that small shop.
That day, under Dugu Bo's dissatisfied eyes, Chengying snatched away the only high-power microscope in the shop and observed the wheat seeds soaked in colchicine.
"Master, today it is my turn to use the microscope. The evolutionary effect of soul power on bacteria has been studied to the key steps. However, you always use the microscope to observe those rice, wheat, melons and fruits. Don't you think it is a waste?
"Dugu Bo rarely refuted Cheng Ying, but this time he couldn't help it.
If the directed transformation of bacteria by soul power can be realized, he may develop the terrifying bacteria that can cause the biochemical crisis in the master's story. In contrast, observing these fruits with doubled chromosomes to make seedless watermelons is simply a plaything.
"That's what's wrong with you!" Cheng Ying took his eyes away from the microscope. He was now a bit like a role model. He took off the slide and carefully put it aside. He pointed to the endless flow of pedestrians outside the window and said:
"Do you think the technology of killing is more important, or the technology of saving people? I don't object to your research on aggressive viruses, but don't underestimate these simple plants because of this."
As he spoke, Cheng Ying picked up a plump potato next to him. This potato has not been grown on a large scale in Douluo Continent because improper planting methods have resulted in tubers that are small and astringent, making them worthless for planting.
"Have you ever thought about why you soul masters can stop working on production, fight with swords all over the world, and still gain wealth, power and even the right to mate?"
"Because soul masters are so powerful, even if ordinary people form a military formation, they are still vulnerable to us." Dugu Bo said without thinking.
Chengying held his forehead: "It seems that I neglected to educate you in literature and history. This is my mistake. Many things you take for granted are not as natural as you think.
Just like soul masters can do without production, the biggest reason is not that soul masters are powerful, but that society's excess resources are enough to feed you. You have to know that more than 90% of the food you eat is grown in the fields of ordinary people.
of.
And only if they can eat enough can they be able to pay taxes and the country and the sect can have food to feed those of us who are not engaged in production. If you just want to be a strong man who monopolizes more resources, then food is not
important.
But what I want to tell you is that if you want to really get more, you don’t just have to find a way to get a bigger cake, there is also a more noble way, and that is to make the cake bigger with your own hands!”
"Okay! That's well said! You are indeed a famous sage in the capital. I'm afraid you have also been adhering to the principle of making the cake bigger!" A sudden voice came from the door, making Cheng Ying shake his head helplessly.
He waved his hand to signal Dugu Bo to go back.
"Your Highness Xueye, you forgot to knock on the door again."
