“Sandy soil, yellow soil, black soil!” Bo Jichen chewed on these three types of soil, then his purple eyes darkened: “I have a planting planet that is rich in the characteristics of these soils, 100 million square kilometers!”
100 million square kilometers?
The ancient Earth in the Milky Way galaxy was 510 million square kilometers.
His 100 million square kilometers is equivalent to 1/5 the size of the Earth.
Yes, yes, absolutely.
“Find someone,” Jiang Si said. “Growing watermelons doesn’t require any special abilities, just ordinary people. I’ll get the first batch of watermelon seeds and seedlings.”
Watermelon seeds and seedlings nourished by her spiritual power can generally survive as long as the environment is not extremely harsh.
"Let's do it! Let's go home." Bo Jichen is a man of action: "Honey, let's go, let's achieve watermelon freedom."
Ginger shreds: "..."
She watched helplessly as Bo Jichen took out a flying device, stuffed His Majesty into it, and drove off, leaving her alone in the gourd patch, jumping around in frustration.
After finishing the jump.
She started picking watermelons.
Get to work.
Watermelons grown on more than 500 acres of land.
I picked ginger shreds for two days, but I didn't finish. So I stopped and went back to Abel Manor.
My whole body ached from bending over, and the first thing I did upon returning to Abel Manor was to go into the bathroom and soak in the bathtub.
After soaking for about 10 minutes to ease the soreness in her body, Jiang Si turned on her personal computer and prepared to surf the internet.
One flush and one refresh don't matter. Once refreshed, the Empire established the Planting Department to encourage ordinary people without superpowers to engage in agriculture, cultivate new land on plantation stars, and provide subsidies and seeds.
All machinery related to agriculture can be financed with interest-free loans for 10 years.
Family-based farming, online stores, and an annual income of 150,000 Star Coins are tax-free. Staple food crops are grown, and the Empire establishes granaries to purchase them.
This topic is trending on social media, and the comments below are almost entirely from ordinary people without superpowers. They are moved to tears, saying, "Am I seeing things? We ordinary people without superpowers can also find a lifelong career?"
"Agriculture, agriculture, when I hear this name, I think it sounds so high-end. I always thought that only growers could grow grains, fruits and vegetables without mutations. I never thought that we could do it too."
"Yes, yes, yes, it was mentioned in the news that we provide seed subsidies for land reclamation, and some people have already done it. The corn sold online before was made by the first group of people."
"We grow them ourselves. Besides corn, we also grow wheat, rice, sorghum, millet, and so on. The first batch of fresh corn was sold to us by Jiang Jiang Baby. As for the rest, we opened our own small shops and sold them ourselves."
"Those wheat, rice, sorghum, millet, and the like, after being harvested, went directly to Dafa Mall. The prices were reasonable, and we all made money. We didn't have to suffer outside. Being our own boss is really great."
Jiang Si envisioned 200 million people engaged in the planting industry. With the addition of large-scale machinery, this would be more than enough to support the empire's 2.8 billion population, as well as export to merfolk, orcs, and other races.
She scrolled through her personal terminal and suddenly saw another trending topic: a study by Gongming and the military that claimed eating certain foods was more conducive to stabilizing mental strength and causing genetic breakdown.
The re-emergence of this trending topic has relieved 200 million ordinary people of their fear of what to do if they can't sell what they grow.
Now they are thinking about growing things, firstly because the government will provide a safety net, and secondly because eating grown things is good for their health.
In the empire and in other countries, the restlessness of the spirit and the collapse of genes are insurmountable problems. If one can make the body stronger and healthier through eating, who would not want that?
Moreover, with consumer associations, planting departments, and national institutions keeping an eye on things, the prices of the grains and vegetables on the market are affordable for the general public. There won't be the phenomenon of a non-mutated fruit being sold at exorbitant prices, as was the case before.
These things on the internet were all done by His Majesty the Emperor and Empress of the Empire, therefore His Majesty the Emperor and Empress of the Empire received unprecedented praise and love.
Their accounts have hundreds of millions of likes and hundreds of millions of comments, all of which are positive, with no negative comments whatsoever.
Jiang Si spent half an hour browsing the comments, then switched to a Level 7 Plant Healer account and posted online: "The ruler regards the people as heaven, and the people regard food as heaven!"
The post sparked a flood of comments: "A new Level 7 therapist has appeared. It seems he is a proponent of food therapy."
"The ruler regards the people as heaven, and the people regard food as heaven." This is a proverb from ancient China on Earth in the Milky Way galaxy. It means that the emperor should regard the people as heaven, and food is what the people depend on.
"Therapist, you're so good! My goodness, your two short sentences have directly confirmed that no matter how powerful the mental therapy is, it's not as good as beauty from what you eat."
"Ever since the military issued the order to eat food and reduce the intake of nutrient solutions, I've been finding ways to eat on my own, even if it's the meat of mutated beasts."
"Don't even mention it, ever since I started eating these foods, stopped taking supplements and nutrient solutions, and occasionally snatched some of Ginger Baby's non-mutated vegetables, I haven't been to the hospital for three months. Moreover, my spirits are getting better and better, and my physical strength is also getting better and better."
"I was wrong, I was wrong. I used to disbelieve it and scoff at it, but now that I see so many impressive people coming down to prove that food contains many trace elements, I believe it now, I completely believe it now."
"So, from now on, no matter what it is, as long as it's edible, I'll buy it, absolutely. I'm going to eat it every single meal!"
The public was surprisingly united, with the tide turning in one direction.
In this way, the promotion of food production is most effective.
Jiang Si exhaled a breath of stale air, exited the internet, took a bath in the tub, changed into a bathrobe, and then went into her personal space.
After two days, the fruit in her space had ripened again. She poured out her spiritual energy to pick the fruit, and after picking it, she began to cultivate watermelons.
The melon seedlings on the ground grew rapidly, blossomed, bore fruit, and ripened.
Jiang Si stomped her foot on the ground, and the watermelon vines instantly withered and turned to ashes.
With another stomp of the foot, clumps of watermelon seedlings sprouted from the soil, growing vigorously.
Yan Liu wove baskets herself, and Jiang Si used her spiritual power to place clumps of watermelon seedlings into the baskets, one basket, two baskets, countless baskets, until they were filled with watermelon seedlings.
Having done all this, Jiang Si left the space, absorbed the energy, and her physical fatigue disappeared, leaving her with abundant mental energy.
As soon as she came out of the restroom, Jiang Dandan came over and rubbed against her belly excitedly.
There was nothing wrong with Jiang Dandan rubbing against her belly, so Jiang Si let it be and allowed it to rub against her.
I haven't slept for two days and two nights, and I'm extremely tired.
Jiang Si yawned as she got into bed, ate her fill of fruit, threw off the covers, and lay down.
Before long, he fell into a deep sleep.
After she fell asleep, fiery red willow branches enveloped her bed, trapping her within them.
Jiang Si was sleeping soundly until she woke up groggily to a tingling, itchy sensation on her lips, and saw Agares.
She exclaimed in surprise and reached out to hug Agares's neck: "Honey, you're back. Am I dreaming?"
