Chapter 74 The Fifth Space Upgrade
Xie Ning didn't know why Xie Yanyan wanted to see this tree trunk, so he reminded him, "Master Li is still waiting for us."
Xie Yanyan: "Tell him to wait."
The county magistrate suddenly bent his back again and smiled even more.
They hiked up the mountain for about four kilometers before they saw the parasol tree forest in the valley.
There are a lot of parasol trees here. At a glance, they are all beautiful big trees that have been growing for at least hundreds of years.
There are also many saplings, and the ground is covered with yellow-white seed shells.
Xie Yanyan squatted on the ground and picked up the seeds. When he saw the orange or orange-yellow seeds wrapped in the yellow-white skin, he knew he had found the right one.
In this era of powerful leaders, every emperor who takes office will order a few Parashorea chinensis trees. Princes and grandchildren also want Parashorea chinensis trees. High-ranking officials all want to have an umbrella canopy on their cars. These trees really cannot resist being cut down.
Besides, the feudal society lasted for more than a thousand years, no wonder the Chinese parasol tree became extinct.
She had to take a few of them away, no matter where the exchange panel was moved, it would provide an extra layer of protection to prevent them from becoming extinct on Earth.
"Are these all? How many plants are there in total? Is there a record?" Xie Yanyan asked the county magistrate.
She wanted to take all these away, for she was afraid that the royal family or high-ranking officials would kill the county magistrate.
If there is any elsewhere, she will take it away.
"This mountain is called Linggu. The Ice Plum Umbrella has magical powers. Only noble people can subdue it. People were not allowed to come up here at first, so so many Ice Plum Umbrella trees are preserved here."
There are a total of 302 registered Parashorea chinensis trees, but small Parashorea chinensis trees are also growing continuously.
Xie Yanyan used his mental power to scan within 1,500 meters and actually found that there were quite a few Parashorea chinensis trees on the mountain, but they were not so concentrated and not too big. They were scattered and not conspicuous in the vast forest.
She spoke silently to the exchange panel.
"Can living Parashorea chinensis saplings be exchanged?"
[Yes, absolutely.]
Why are you answering so eagerly?
“Can seeds be exchanged?”
[Can be exchanged, very valuable]
[If there are more than 10 Parashorea chinensis trees, the exchange system can be upgraded separately]
"What can I exchange for?"
【Gold and silver jewelry?】
"don't want."
【What do you want then? 】
"I haven't decided yet."
【……】
Since he knew it could be exchanged, Xie Yanyan collected the Parashorea chinensis trees and seeds first.
She collected 50% of the Chinese magnolia trees within a radius of 1,500 meters, especially the seeds, except for the 302 large trees registered with the county government.
These saplings must be exchanged immediately, no living things can be grown in this space.
Seeds can be preserved in a vacuum, but trees cannot.
After counting, I found that except for the one that was not as tall as the one given to King Xi, there were actually more than 300 saplings received in the space.
There are more seeds, with more than 5,000 fully mature seeds.
[Material storage is full, the space starts the fifth upgrade]
Xie Yanyan:? ?
The fourth upgrade seems to have taken place not long ago! It seems that extinct species can promote faster upgrades of space.
A progress bar quickly opened up.
She peed again: "Brother, sir, I need to go to the toilet."
"Be careful."
"good."
She ran to a large rock and was surrounded by dense bushes and grass, so no one could see her.
The progress bar quickly moved up, 50%, 99%...
【Space upgrade successful】
[Scan transfer range: 2000 meters]
[Upgraded derivative abilities: mind reading, material exchange]
[Mind reading effective range: 150 meters]
[Material exchange scope: protective supplies, agricultural products]
The upgrade was successful and we survived the disaster safely!
The scanning transfer range is 2 kilometers, so she can be considered a clairvoyant.
The mind-reading range is increased by another 50 meters.
Agricultural products have been expanded to include more exchangeable materials.
What do you mean by agricultural products? Seeds?
She became suspicious, and the exchange panel was immediately introduced to her.
[Agricultural products include: 1. Pesticides: including insecticides, fungicides, herbicides, plant growth regulators, soil conditioners, etc.]
[2. Fertilizers: including nitrogen fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer, potash fertilizer, compound fertilizer, etc.]
[3. Agricultural machinery: large tractors for transportation, wheat harvesters, corn harvesters, straw crushers, etc.]
【Good agricultural products directly increase farmers’ income】
I don’t farm, it’s useless!
【Do you want to redeem immediately? Please confirm! 】
“No exchange!”
[It is recommended to exchange Parashorea chinensis for agricultural products, as the space does not have the conditions for Parashorea chinensis to survive]
dog!
"Can I owe the products that Huagaimu redeems for now? I'll redeem them after I've thought it over."
[Yes, as long as it is within the exchange range]
"Confirmed that 300 Parashorea chinensis trees will participate in the exchange."
[Accepting exchange, 300 live Chinese parasol trees have been received, please choose the exchange material]
[1. Various pesticides; 2. Various fertilizers; 3. Agricultural machinery; 4. Mixed agricultural products...]
[You can choose any one of the above materials]
The exchange panel is probably an AI, or one with a PhD degree.
"Just owe it to me first, and don't choose it for now."
[OK, deposit first, can be exchanged at any time]
Xie Yanyan originally thought that everything would be fine once the exchange was completed.
Unexpectedly, the redemption panel flickered on the screen again.
[Ancient funeral customs and culture were discovered in space, which has extremely high cultural and archaeological value. Do you want to exchange it? ]
"No change!" Anyway, the video is not a living thing, so there is no rush to take it out.
【……】#Please change it! #
After Xie Yanyan completed the upgrade, he hurried down the mountain. Xie Ning and the county magistrate both breathed a sigh of relief.
Several people went down the mountain together. Xie Yanyan ordered a batch of dry wood of ordinary materials at the lumberyard. They were not suitable for making paper, but they were good for building houses.
When County Magistrate Chen saw her lighting the wood, his heart bled.
[Alas, the wood has been taken away, but the people’s wages have not yet been paid]
"County Magistrate Chen, King Xi wants the ice plum umbrella tree. How much silver do you want?" Xie Yanyan suddenly asked.
“All under heaven belongs to the king. Your Majesty wants the Bingmei umbrella, but Hewan County doesn’t dare to ask for money.” How could the county magistrate dare to ask for money from King Xi?
“How do you calculate the wages of the people?”
"The government is temporarily hiring civilians to cut down trees and haul away the waste, paying each person 800 yuan per month."
"Oh, I took your wood to make paper for the court, and the prince allowed it." Xie Yanyan said, "But I don't want your county government to be in deficit, so I will pay you 50 taels of silver and give you some of my homemade paper. If you want it in the future, come to Lingnan to find me."
A bag of white paper and a bag of rice paper were taken out of the carriage.
County Magistrate Chen's face turned pale and he stammered, "You are..."
"Exile!" Xie Yanyan had a world-weary face, even more arrogant than Prince Xi's virtuous face, "Xie Yanyan, the legitimate daughter of General Xie of the former Wuyi Marquis Mansion in Kyoto."
County Magistrate Chen must have received the imperial report, and he should have heard of Xie Yanyan's name.
As expected, County Magistrate Chen was shocked in a second: "You are the one who invented the curved plow? Oh, I have seen a great man."
When I knew she was a fugitive, my heart sank to the bottom. But when I knew she was the king among the fugitives, my heart soared to the sky.
County Magistrate Chen didn't know what to say for a moment. He wanted to ask Xie Yanyan for something, but time was too tight.
Li Rong had already finished all his work. He waited and waited for Xie Yanyan but she never showed up. He got anxious and came to the county government office, just in time to see her horse-drawn carriage.
"Ms. Xie, go back quickly, Zhou..." Li Rong shouted as soon as he saw Xie Ning and Xie Yanyan coming out.
"Don't worry, I'm coming." Zhou Shaoyu's horse hooves made a "clattering" sound and he came like a gust of wind.
The young people here are dressed in fine clothes and riding horses.
