Chapter 323 Taking Notes
Manbao kicked her legs and sat up from the bed. She rubbed her eyes, turned her head and saw that there was already light outside. She immediately ran to the system to check her points.
Seeing that the points number in the backstage had not changed, Manbao was unhappy, "Why hasn't she transferred the points yet?"
Koko said, "Maybe she was so engrossed in her research that she forgot to confirm that the goods were okay. But host, don't worry. The points are now in the encyclopedia. Wait three days. If she's still not sure, the points will be automatically transferred to the host's account."
As soon as he finished speaking, Keke said "Huh", and then a familiar "ding-ling" sounded. Both the person and the system were refreshed, and the total points increased by one digit under Manbao's sharp gaze.
Manbao somersaulted with joy and sent another message asking, "Do you want some Ligustrum lucidum? It's also a very rare plant and a medicinal herb."
"Did you also include Ligustrum lucidum?"
"Yes!" Manbao replied happily, "I discovered it two years ago. It's the first high-value plant I collected."
"How many points do I want?"
Manbao thought for a moment and said, "Three thousand five?"
“I’m curious, what do you base your pricing on?”
Manbao did not hide it, "It's calculated based on the points the encyclopedia gave me. Don't worry, after all, it has been included, so the points I set are all discounted."
"How much is the discount?"
Manbao: "I won't tell you."
Manbao successfully ended the topic. After a while, Manbao saw her new order in the background. She wanted to buy Ligustrum lucidum, and the price was set at three thousand five hundred.
Manbao happily accepted the task and said to her, "Don't worry, I'll give you a bunch of fresh Ligustrum lucidum fruits this afternoon."
Manbao went to ask his fifth brother for help to pick Ligustrum lucidum fruits on the mountain.
"Can the privet fruit be sold?"
"Go and have a look. I think there must be some ripe ones. Can you pick a bunch and bring them back for me?"
Of course Zhou Wulang would say, "Yes."
Manbao then suggested, "How about digging some more soil under the privet tree and breaking off some branches?"
Zhou Wulang looked at her, his eyes sparkling. "Little sister, do you want to plant Ligustrum lucidum? What does the book say?"
Manbao exclaimed, "Huh?" How could she forget that they could also grow Ligustrum lucidum, which could be sold for at least forty cents per pound.
She said with a stern face, "Fifth brother, please help me break off a few more branches so I can study them."
"Okay, whatever you want, Brother Wu will prepare it for you."
Zhou Wulang counted the days until he would become an adult on his fingers, and said to Manbao seriously, "Manbao, if you can figure out how to grow Ligustrum lucidum by next year, I'll give you half of my land. We'll plant Ligustrum lucidum all over the mountain, and clear the land at the foot of the mountain to plant ginger and Chinese yams. That way, come autumn and winter, we can earn money without having to lie down."
In Zhou Wulang's opinion, whether it is digging ginger pieces, digging yam or cutting and drying Ligustrum lucidum fruits, it is not considered hard work, and the income is so high, it is no different from making money while lying down.
Not to mention Zhou Wulang, even Manbao felt excited when she calculated the forty acres of the mountain. She clenched her fist and said seriously, "Fifth brother, don't worry, I will definitely be able to grow Ligustrum lucidum."
She instantly forgot about the deal she had made with the other person. It was only when Koko reminded her that she remembered that she seemed to have agreed to give the other person a bunch of Ligustrum lucidum berries.
Manbao first looked at the entry for Ligustrum lucidum and found only a short sentence about planting it: "It can be planted by cuttings."
Manbao scratched his head and asked, "That's all?"
Keke said, "It could be that they haven't researched it yet, or it could be that the research institute considers it confidential information, so they can refuse to upload some of the content. As long as it passes the encyclopedia's review, it's fine."
"But the effects of Ligustrum lucidum are described in great detail above. Isn't this the more crucial part?" Manbao was puzzled. "It's just planting. What's there to hide? We tell everyone how we grow things at home."
"...Of course, the effects have to be detailed. They're probably eager to add more functions. Because they obtain the target object from the encyclopedia and have achieved results in research, the first right to use the target object belongs to their research institute." Koko explained, "For example, Dr. D, who is currently trading with you, does not have the qualifications or conditions to cultivate and research the Ligustrum lucidum, so she has to buy it from you."
"But now that the forum is open, if she can find a host that includes Ligustrum lucidum, she can purchase the target material from you through formal channels and conduct research. As long as the research results do not conflict with those already published and there are no patent applications, then the results will belong to her. The economic benefits generated by this are immeasurable."
Otherwise, why would so many people flock to the forum as soon as it was opened, and why would those people even pay any price to buy the target items in it?
This is because the encyclopedia is equivalent to condensing the resources of hundreds of worlds into a forum. Currently, no world's technology can match their Star Alliance, so they can use their resources to research and discover the various things they need to promote the development of Star Alliance technology.
Manbao was a little confused and didn't understand very well, but she vaguely knew that this was a very important matter, and it was obviously impossible to ask Koko to explain it again.
As long as Koko knows something, it is willing to explain it to her in detail until she understands it.
But every time it mentions the Covenant, it usually only says it once, and sometimes it doesn't say it very clearly, but no matter how many times you ask it, it won't answer again.
It has been like this since Manbao was younger, so Manbao is already familiar with it. She has also learned how to distinguish which questions can be asked and which questions should not be asked again after hearing the answers.
At this time, Manbao did not ask any more questions, but exited the system and took a pen to write down every word that Koko said.
This is a notebook that will only be stored in the system. There are already many words written in it. These are all things that Koko said that she could not understand at the moment. She decided to study them slowly later.
The teacher once said that if you read a book a hundred times, its meaning will become clear. Although he does not recommend this way of reading, if there is no answer to a book, an article, a paragraph or a sentence, and there is no answer in the book, then repeated reading is the best way to understand its meaning.
At least now she understood a lot of things that Koko had said, but she didn't understand them at that time.
She felt that when she was older and read more books, she would be able to understand everything Koko said.
Manbao put the notebook back into the system and said, "I'll give her the things this afternoon. Can I ask her how to grow Ligustrum lucidum?"
"Of course, that's provided she knows and is willing to tell you."
Manbao felt that this shouldn't be a big problem. She wasn't from their world, and she couldn't trade Ligustrum lucidum in large quantities with them.
Then no matter how much they plant here, it won't affect the other side, so why is she unwilling?
