The reagents used for land testing are very simple. A curled hose and a mini crystal ball can replace instruments worth millions in previous lives.

The power of technology. Cheng Jinzhou played and praised it.

The koala lay on Cheng Jinzhou's shoulder and introduced: "You straighten the hose, insert it into the test land, connect it to the ball, and inject the liquid in the ball. After a few minutes, various patterns will be displayed on the transparent ball. The more colors displayed, the more types of pearl rice can be planted.

"How many types are there at most?"

"More than 160 kinds." The koala puffed up its mouth as it spoke, like a squirrel with its mouth full of fruit.

"There are more than 160 kinds of pearls?" Cheng Jinzhou was surprised. This represents more than 160 kinds of elements, twice as many as those found on the earth.

The koala nodded and rolled its eyes.

Cheng Jinzhou resisted the desire to ask, went out and found Lu Xu who was eating meat, and called him: "Mr. Lu, let's go out."

"Wait for me to eat another one..." Lu Xu was talking about the leg of lamb. He used his teeth to tear the lower part of the leg bone, and a thick piece of meat was brought out. He was very skilled in the operation.

Cheng Jinzhou also sat down with a smile, took out a leg of lamb from his plate, and ate some of the leg parts with his hands. The meat here is more chewy and not easy to get tired of.

Lu Xu munched. There was always meat around him, and at least two teams of chefs prepared it day and night. For a body that can withstand 5,000 star points and a fourth-level United Star Formation, the consumption is extremely terrifying.

Astromancers' quirks are often satisfied to the greatest extent, especially quirks that are so easy to satisfy.

In two minutes, the leg of lamb, which weighed at least four or five kilograms, was chewed into a bare bone stick by Lu Xu. He stood up, patted his chest hard and said, "Come up here, little ones, give it to me." Prepare some food for the road."

A thermal bag with tin foil inside was delivered to Lu Xu. When Cheng Jinzhou was in place, he took off in an instant.

The wind in the sky was very cold. Cheng Jinzhou was too lazy to turn on the star formation. He pulled his clothes to cover his neck, lowered his head and said, "Let's go take a look at Zhuangzi's fields."

"What's the point? Do you really want to farm?" Lu Xu said, but the direction changed. Apart from caring about his Star Warlock level, he probably cares most about meat.

Cheng Jinzhou didn't say anything, and just put the koala in front of his neck. The United Star Array brought up the biting wind and blew it onto the soft velvet fur, and the coldness immediately subsided.

The koala's eyes were filled with resentment and helplessness.

Passing through the hills outside the moat, the endless green indicates the harvest of the coming year. The small black dots represent busy farmers, and the larger ones are cattle. In Daxia, the reason why the nobility represented more advanced productivity was that they could provide more means of production. Ordinary farmers cannot afford to buy iron tools for farming cattle for every household.

After about five minutes of flying, a little light yellow appeared in the green of the land, which was the color of the real rice being planted.

Cheng Jinzhou patted Lu Xu on the shoulder and said, "Let's go down."

He poked his middle finger downward in a gesture of contempt, but unfortunately no one here understood it.

The star warlock falling from the sky surprised the farmers in the field. A few of them knelt down, and the rest were stunned for a long time before lying in a mess in the field, carefully avoiding the rice seedlings.

The strong roar was like that of a tiger. Lu Xu landed on the field ridge with great enjoyment. He threw a leg of lamb to the farmer next to him and laughed loudly: "Everyone who has been rewarded for you, get up and do whatever you have to do." .”

Now that the busy farming season is not over yet, he can be considered kind.

Cheng Jinzhou smiled slightly, jumped off his shoulder, and took out a set of testing equipment.

Lu Xu looked at him curiously.

Classmate Xiao Cheng still said nothing, straightened the hose with his hands, and inserted it.

The surrounding peasants have all fled away. In a highly hierarchical society, civil servants can still straighten their spines in front of the star warlocks, but it is not easy for the gentry to straighten their knees. As for the peasants, they really lack the most basic knowledge. Assure.

"What are you doing?"

"Look at the color." Cheng Jinzhou said, connecting the crystal ball to the hose.

The fist-sized crystal ball looks quite heavy, but when placed on the straightened hose, it does not vibrate at all and is firmly attached to the top.

Without him needing to do anything else, two or three minutes later, a slightly turbid liquid was lifted out of the hose and mixed into the crystal ball.

Under the sunlight, colors such as red, orange, yellow, and green continue to shine.

The koala moved on Cheng Jinzhou's shoulder and whispered in his ear: "The human eye can distinguish hundreds of thousands of colors, but if you are not trained, it will be troublesome to determine the number."

"What about you?" Cheng Jinzhou was very understanding.

"You're lucky." The koala said, squinting his eyes and saying, "When I made this body, I took into account the need to distinguish colors, so I used a lot of sparkling stones. Wait a minute... "

The colors on the crystal stones became more and more bright, so much so that Cheng Jinzhou had to close his eyes and muttered: "Those shining stones are for my money."

At this moment, Ys said in a show-off tone: "The brighter the color, the greater the atomic weight of the element being endured, but it does not mean that elements with greater atomic weight are more cherished."

"You're so verbose, how much is it?" Cheng Jinzhou interrupted him.

Yisu chuckled twice and said: "69 kinds, not bad."

In such a backward place like Daxia, the entertainment activities he could find were really limited. Compared with Cheng Jinzhou's boredom, he has fewer activities to play without his body.

Accounting for more than one-third of the more than 100 elements, Cheng Jinzhou said with satisfaction: "Including tellurium pearl rice?"

"The basic elements are included, of course, including tellurium pearl rice." Yisu paused for a moment, and then said: "You are really lucky. There must be a region that is preparing for large-scale exploration or war, otherwise the price of tellurium pearl rice will not be high." It will be this high.”

Cheng Jinzhou said nothing, looked around and said: "The land has been sown now, it would be a pity to shovel it up."

"What does it matter if the ordinary rice fields are plowed up? Is it really possible to grow fourth-level food for sale?" Yisu said, looking at his body and said: "The stronger the planet you represent, the more resources you will get, and you will earn more. That’s more money.”

From a trade perspective, growing ordinary food on the land of Daxia really has no future. But you can tell with your knees what kind of stir the uprooting of seedlings will cause in a farming society - this is an era when even the slaughter of farm cattle requires government approval.

"I understand." Cheng Jinzhou said, but did not express a clear intention.

Ys sighed with regret. His goal was far beyond what a koala body could satisfy, nor what a small Covenant Level 7 agent could satisfy.

However, everything had to be done slowly, and he had no other choice.

After returning the koala to the yard, Cheng Jinzhou entered the Star Tower again.

Bai Yue came up to him in surprise, and before she could speak, she saw that he had entered the upper level.

My old friend's envious eyes were almost parallel to his nose, and he sighed: "When did I reach Star Alliance level 5..."

"Dreaming." A certain gentleman who often came to the Star Tower decisively ended his fantasy.

Chao Dongwu was not at the top, which made Cheng Jinzhou inexplicably relieved. He quickly opened the interface, contacted the elder merchant, and left a message skillfully: I can provide finished tellurium pearl rice, but it requires raw materials and production processes.

As a higher-level commercial firm, Elder Commercial has a dedicated person responsible for all matters, especially the projects it is undertaking, and its response is extremely fast.

While Cheng Jinzhou was browsing other information, a set of demonstration materials and a list of raw materials were sent to his interface.

"7.8 million star yuan per ton." Seeing the price of tellurium, Xiao Cheng couldn't help but take a breath.

He determined that this price would not be competitive even in the 21st century.

Fortunately, the elder Dashang was considerate and noted the production cost of tellurium pearl rice (5-20 kilograms per mu). In other words, on land that can produce it, the cost per ton is at most 156,000 star dollars.

Of course, if it is on a proxy planet closer to the center, the total cost can still be reduced due to the reduction in transportation costs, but in general, the main component of the cost comes from the land.

If the raw material cost of producing tellurium pearl rice exceeds 150,000 star dollars, then there is not much point in continuing to produce it.

"Thank you." Cheng Jinzhou entered the information in the message box, then hastily purchased several hundred kilograms of raw ore containing tellurium, and left the Star Tower.

Poor Bai Yue and others waited at the lower level of the Star Tower for at least 20 hours before leaving in frustration.

It is very simple to bury tellurium ore in the land, but it takes a long time to dig up hundreds of acres of paddy fields. The clan officials who thought they were humble dared to stand on the ridge of the fields and use non-violence and non-cooperation to resist.

Of course, Cheng Jinzhou was a reasonable man, and he easily persuaded his tenants with dozens of taels of silver.

When the silver was in their pockets, the staunch farmland protectors, who could not pull back ten cows, immediately used more than twice the speed to completely turn over the land full of seedlings, and then dug all the way down to the soil. Go down two meters, and then carefully spread the ore up...

"The land here should be suitable." Cheng Jinzhou said to the koala who was picked out again.

"It will not exceed the 12 kilogram requirement." the koala said confidently.

"oh?"

"Someone is coming." Yisu didn't seem to want to explain.

The one who came was Xiang Xin, a one-star warlock. Her speed is not very fast, but the flying posture of the thermal star array is very special, as if it is being pulled forward by the gas, so it is easy to recognize.

"Mr. Cheng." Xiang Xin fell slowly.

While Cheng Jinzhou agreed, he asked the farmers to irrigate the last fields with water. He didn't want others to see it - even though the impact would be minimal.

The koala murmured twice and lay down behind Cheng Jinzhou.

Xiang Xin landed on the ground, unconsciously teased the koala with his hands twice, and said with a smile: "Mr. Cheng, I have to trouble you again to take a look at my paper."

"Is there improvement so soon?" Cheng Jinzhou took the paper from Xiang Xin.

"Well... the teacher helped me make some modifications." Xiang Xin was a little embarrassed and worried that Cheng Jinzhou would be angry.

Cheng Jinzhou immediately began to ponder: "Warlock Liu Kuangxing..."
