In The Immortal Cultivation World, Hard Work Can Make Up For Your Shortcomings
Chapter 40 Wrong Date
"Mu Jiu, these spiritual fields you planted this year are all good."
Manager Meng brought a spiritual plate and followed Mu Jiuxiao to his several acres of spiritual fields. Although he was not sure how much his harvest would be this year, just by looking at the plump ears of rice, he knew that his harvest this year would definitely be small. few.
"Thanks to Steward Meng, there is hope for a bumper harvest this year. I have specially learned a new brewing technique for this purpose. When the new wine is brewed, I would like to ask Steward to taste it." Mu Jiuxiao replied.
"You kid, you look like you have a lot of potential."
Manager Meng nodded repeatedly, "Your friend Li Shuo has also reached the third level of Qi training. He will go to the outer gate of Seven Star Sect in a few days. We will all be Fellow Daoists by then."
The news that Mu Jiuxiao was on good terms with Li Shuo and the others could not be hidden from Manager Meng's ears. After all, Li Shuo and the others had Mu Jiuxiao cultivate their fields this year.
"Guanshi Meng, you have many connections. My brother is a rude person and doesn't understand anything. I will need your help when the time comes." Mu Jiuxiao replied.
"It's easy to talk about."
As Manager Meng walked, he had already recorded the information about the golden spirit rice. He took out a piece of paper, made a rubbing on the spirit plate, and then handed it to Mu Jiuxiao, "This is your family spirit rice this year. Please pay close attention to the maturity period of Tianjin Lingdao, and make sure you don’t make a mistake.”
"Thank you very much, Manager Meng. I will do my best." Mu Jiuxiao took the piece of paper with a smile on his face.
The earliest acre of land that his family can harvest can be harvested in only ten days, which means that he can harvest it right away. It's great, it's great.
Seeing the smile on Mu Jiuxiao's face, Manager Meng also laughed meaningfully and turned around to check out the next family's spiritual field.
"Manager Meng, walk slowly."
Mu Jiuxiao hurriedly bowed to see off the guests. It was not until Manager Meng left with the next tenant that the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
I have never offended Manager Meng, so why does he have ill intentions towards me?
Mu Jiuxiao looked at the harvest date written on the paper and was puzzled because the harvest period written on it was slightly different from what he had expected.
For example, the two acres of land owned by his family were expected to mature in seven days, but Meng Meng wrote that it would mature in ten days. The two acres of land in Ye Fan's family were obviously matured in fifteen days, but Meng Meng wrote that it would mature in fifteen days. It's twelve days later.
Was his array broken? Or was his prediction inaccurate?
What exactly is going on will be revealed in seven days. As an old farmer who has been cultivating Jinling rice for ten years, he can tell whether the Jinling rice is mature or not.
Soon, seven days later, he stood in front of the spiritual field, looking at the golden rice in front of him. The golden ears of rice reflected the sunlight like gold, which made people happy to see it.
With his many years of experience, he knows that Jinlingdao is ripe!
However, the date given by Manager Meng made people doubt themselves, had they made a mistake?
If those who trust Meng Meng too much are afraid of being fooled, most tenant farmers would not dare to doubt Meng Meng. After all, he has a spiritual weapon in his hand. Could there be something wrong with the spiritual weapon?
By the time they are sure that they are right, it may be too late.
Mu Jiuxiao also had doubts, so he didn't harvest on the first day, and he didn't harvest on the second day. On the third day, he took out the ice sickle borrowed from Ye Fan and started harvesting!
What Shopkeeper Meng didn't know was that with the help of elixirs and spiritual stones, he happened to successfully break through to the third level of Qi training before the Golden Spirit Rice matured, so his efficiency was much different than before.
In less than an hour, he had harvested all the two acres of spiritual rice!
He cooked a bowl of the spiritual rice he collected. Not only did the spiritual energy not lose at all, but it also increased compared to before.
Naturally, it was impossible for him to hand over these spiritual rice. He planned to buy someone else to hand it over.
During this period, the spiritual rice grown by other tenant farmers also matured one after another. Mu Jiuxiao used the excuse of making wine, buying some from his family and some from his family to collect enough taxes.
What he expected was that he had a total of thirteen acres of spiritual land, but the harvest timing given by Manager Meng was not even close to that of one acre. It was either too fast or too slow.
Fortunately, he insisted on his own opinion and relied on his own vision to harvest, instead of blindly following the time given by Manager Meng. Otherwise, he would really suffer a big loss this time!
After harvesting the spiritual rice, he did not hand it over immediately. Instead, he waited until Ye Fan and the others came back from the mountains and told them about it.
"You said Manager Meng deliberately gave you a holiday?"
When Ye Fan and others heard this, they couldn't believe it. Manager Meng dared to cheat openly? Wasn't he afraid that Mu Jiuxiao would report him?
After all, he is no longer the tenant farmer he used to be. As soon as Li Shuo enters the Seven Star Sect, he will have a background, and at least a channel to speak out.
"Can you show us the date he wrote to you?" Ye Fan pondered for a moment and said.
Mu Jiuxiao handed him the note written by Manager Meng. After Ye Fan read it, he reached out and brushed it and handed it to Mu Jiuxiao.
Mu Jiuxiao was stunned when he saw it, "How could this happen?"
The date written on the note was clearly the same as what he calculated. The date he saw before seemed to be his imagination.
"Xiaojiu, have you offended someone?"
Ye Fan asked, because this note had clearly been manipulated.
"I haven't gone anywhere except farming, who can I offend?"
Mu Jiuxiao shook his head. He didn't even go to the market often now. Whatever he wanted to buy, Ye Fan and the others helped him buy it. How could he offend anyone!
"If it wasn't you, then maybe it was coming for us."
Ye Fan thought for a moment and looked at Li Shuo, "Brother Shuo, did you offend anyone when you participated in the Seven Star Sect selection some time ago?"
"You all saw what happened that day. If I offend anyone, then everyone who is not selected can hate me!"
Li Shuo said nonchalantly, victory or defeat is a matter of military strategism, Seven Star Sect has Seven Star Sect's rules, he can't be chosen just because he is strong, and others should hold a grudge, right?
He has always looked down upon such people!
"What I mean is, there may be some descendants of Guanshi Meng there." Ye Fan said.
Li Shuo heard this, thought about it carefully, and finally found some clues, "When you mentioned this, I remembered that among the tenant farmers selected, there was one named Meng...Meng Chengyun Monk, could this person be a descendant of Guanshi Meng?"
"Okay, I'll go find out when the time comes and I'll know if he was the one causing the problem!" Ye Fan replied.
"Yes." Li Shuo nodded and looked at Mu Jiuxiao, "Xiaojiu, if this person is really causing trouble, then he will hurt you this time for my brother."
"Uh, Brother Shuo, Brother Ye Fan, what are you talking about? Is there anything I don't know?"
Mu Jiuxiao only heard a bit of confusion. He seemed to understand, but he didn't seem to understand much.
