Chapter 210 Jinjiang Exclusive Release
"Oh my God! The ground is really turning over by itself!"
"God, he is indeed a living god!"
The scene of supernatural power turning over the soil, which was already common to the villagers of Yunlu Village, was real in the eyes of officials and common people in the capital city. It was not a miracle that could be explained away by folk magic tricks at all!
While Liu Wenchi and others were stunned into unconsciousness, the people around them had already prostrated themselves on the ground, shouting to Lu Xuan, "Long live the immortal!" and "Please bless me, immortal!"
Lu Xuan did not respond to this, but after turning the soil, he gave an extra rain and dew to nourish the earth.
Suddenly, a light drizzle began to fall in the greenhouse that had already been sealed, and raindrops even fell on the greenhouse glass. The magical scene made the people even more excited, and even brought tears to their eyes.
“It’s raining in the greenhouse!!”
He even knows how to use the magic of making rain, he is truly a god!
My dear father! I, your son, have actually seen a true immortal who understands immortal magic in my lifetime!
[Hahahaha, looking at their expressions, I love seeing these natives being shocked by the anchor. I never get tired of watching it!]
[Although I've seen similar scenes several times in Yunlu Village, it was really cool to watch.]
[Look at the guy surnamed Zhao, he's clearly frightened by the host, his expression is so horrified!]
[You wouldn't have thought, but the host not only possesses a vast amount of supplies, but also possesses an incredible force beyond your wildest imagination! Turning the ground and making rain are mere trifles. His true fighting prowess is truly terrifying!]
Liu Wenchi came back to his senses when the people kept shouting that he was a god. He looked at Lu Xuan with the same shock in his eyes, and couldn't help but wonder if the other party was a god who had descended to earth.
At the same time, one cannot help but think that since Lu Xuan has such extraordinary abilities, then what he said about the disaster continuing is most likely true.
Liu Wenchi couldn't help but become alert, and the importance of the greenhouse became increasingly higher. He made up his mind to keep a close eye on it and not let any mistakes occur in the harvest of the greenhouse.
Zhang Tongzhi, Liu Zimo and others also thought of this, and their faces became more solemn.
Liu Zimo glanced at Zhao Tongpan, whose face was pale and uncertain.
After seeing Lu Xuan's abilities with his own eyes, Zhao Tongpan wouldn't have any more bad thoughts, right?
Lu Xuan had no reaction to the people's attitude.
After thoroughly nourishing all the turned soil in the greenhouse, he took several different mutant crop seeds and used the wood-type ability to stimulate their growth on the spot, from germination to full maturity and fruiting.
Everyone present: “!!!”
The seeds actually turned into mature crops! It’s incredible!
Could it be that this person is not only a deity, but also Shennong?
No, that's not right.
Some people soon noticed that the plants Lu Xuan had grown were different from the crops they imagined growing in the fields. Whether they were rice, wheat ears, or soybeans, they were all more than two meters tall on average.
Isn’t this growth too outrageous?
Moreover, these crops are crooked, red and purple, and look abnormal no matter how you look at them.
"Mr. Lu, what do these plants look like...?" Liu Wenchi looked hesitant.
Lu Xuan pinched the mature mutant soybeans out of the pods and pinched off a section of rice ear and handed it to Liu Wenchi. "These are the mutant crops. They look quite different from the original crops. The other mutant plants that I didn't induce to grow also have their own appearance differences."
"Lord Liu, please keep this in mind first, so that when the seeds grow, the people in charge of farming won't think there's something wrong with the crops and dig up the good crops."
Liu Wenchi peeled off the husk of the rice ear and found that there were indeed rice grains hidden inside. The grains were very large, and they looked exactly the same as the ones that Lu Xuan had invited them to dinner before.
Liu Wenchi knew that Lu Xuan would not give him any questionable crops or seeds, so he asked a question out of caution: "Are these strangely colored crops really edible? Are there any side effects?"
Lu Xuan curled his lips and said, "Apart from its unusual appearance, if I have to say there's a downside, it's probably that the yield is too high and harvesting it consumes a lot of manpower."
Before Liu Wenchi could speak, the eavesdroppers couldn't help but speak up, "How can high yields be a bad thing? We're not afraid of the hard work of harvesting! We just want the highest yields possible!"
Others also agreed: "That's right! Only with a large output can we have enough to eat."
It's normal to work hard, isn't it?
Even if there were no natural disasters, it would not be easy to support a family.
Many of the people present, including those who had not arrived from further away, had heard that the seeds given to the government office by the immortals/gods were very special and could be harvested in less than two months.
But before the greenhouse was opened, they were skeptical, and even more skeptical and indifferent.
Now that I have seen Lu Xuan's abilities with my own eyes, there is no doubt for me!
Not to mention less than two months, even if he said he could harvest every month, they would believe it, and would be ecstatic and crawl all over the floor with excitement.
Someone asked loudly, "Immortal Envoy, no, Master Immortal! You said these crops have a high yield. How high exactly? Can it be over 500 kilograms?"
The people who spoke up thought they were very bold, but the audience in the live broadcast room secretly shook their heads.
What's 500 kilograms? Think bigger!
Liu Wenchi was originally worried that Lu Xuan would reveal the data he had given them, and if he failed to reach the target, it would lead to backlash. However, Lu Xuan was obviously not worried about this problem at all. He calmly announced the number in front of everyone: "Add another thousand pounds."
The people were stunned for a moment and blinked.
What does adding a thousand pounds mean?
Everyone tasted it for a while before someone reacted and widened their eyes slightly.
Does that mean adding another 1,000 kilograms to the 500 kilograms? Wouldn't that mean 1,500 kilograms?
"hiss--!"
There were continuous gasps coming from the greenhouse, and several older people couldn't help but cover their hearts that were almost jumping out of their throats. It was obvious that they couldn't bear the huge shock.
Oh my God, the yield per mu is 1,500 kilograms, I’m afraid that what is grown is not immortal rice!
While the people were shocked, they also felt an uncontrollable excitement erupting from their hearts, and their eyes looked at Lu Xuan with increasing awe and passion.
In their eyes, Lu Xuan at this time was no different from their adoptive parents, and was even closer than their adoptive parents!
Some of those who were more active had already kowtowed to Lu Xuan on the spot, their voices so loud that the people in the government office felt sorry for them.
But the person involved looked ecstatic, excited to the point of being crazy, which made people feel a little uneasy.
What’s even more surprising is that this behavior is contagious.
When other people saw this, they seemed to be inspired and started to kowtow as well.
The neat yet somewhat chaotic scene looked like a cult worship scene.
All officials: "..."
Seeing the people's increasing exaggeration, Liu Wenchi quickly cleared his throat and said, "Alright, stop kneeling and kowtow. If you're serious, get to work and build all the greenhouses and plant the seeds as soon as possible so everyone can eat the new food sooner."
The people thought it made sense.
The immortal rice grown from seeds given by the gods may be able to cure all diseases.
It's just a greenhouse, right? They've already built it up today without even sleeping! They'll start planting tomorrow!
Even though she was thinking this, her feet seemed to have their own thoughts, sticking to the ground and refusing to move. The look she gave Lu Xuan was filled with reluctance, shyness, and a lingering connection...
Live broadcast audience: ???
In the end, it took Liu Zimo and Master Sun a long time of persuasion to get the man to leave.
When Lu Xuan was no longer visible, the people who had been excited about the situation finally calmed down a little.
Then he recalled Lu Xuan's feat of turning the soil with a wave of his hand and then calling for rain with a wave of his hand, as well as the astonishing yield per mu he had just learned about. His desire to share was unprecedentedly high. Without the officials' reminder, he quickened his pace and dispersed in all directions, excitedly pulling other people who were not present to spread the blessing of the gods.
As the news spread throughout the greenhouse planning area, the wilderness was in an uproar.
"Is it true that you can turn over several acres of land without doing anything yourself? Are you dreaming?"
"Our team's position is relatively close to that place. I did feel a slight vibration just now. Could it be the immortals turning the ground?"
"Also, does that mutant crop really look weird? Can the fruits it grows be eaten?"
"How could it be fake? Several officials in the government office have already eaten in advance and are all full of life."
"More than a thousand kilograms per mu—!? How is that possible!"
One of the people present at the scene explained logically, "How can it be impossible? The rice grown by Immortal Lu is much taller than a human, and the ears are thicker than radishes. A single ear can produce countless grains of rice. How can the yield not be high?"
"Think about the giant radishes and cabbages used in yesterday's big pot meal. If other fruits and vegetables grew that big, wouldn't it be normal for the yield to increase several times?"
Others: That makes sense!
Someone murmured, "If we could really produce so much food and fruits, we wouldn't have to worry about going hungry anymore, right?"
After hearing this, the eyes of the others flashed, and after a long period of silence, a light gradually appeared in their eyes.
The supplies distributed by the government office yesterday will certainly keep them from starving for the next ten days or half a month, but how can short-term rations compare to long-term harvests?
It was not until they were sure that the capital city would finally start spring plowing in earnest that they would have a stable source of food in the future. The people who had been like zombies for more than half a year finally felt a new lease of life.
When Liu Wenchi walked out of the greenhouse and saw the smiles and bright eyes on the people's faces, he couldn't help but relax for a moment, and then he seemed to understand something and slowly smiled.
·
People's enthusiasm for building greenhouses is unprecedentedly high.
Fifty thousand people worked for three days, and during the period they returned to the government office to collect a fixed amount of relief food. Only then were all ten thousand acres of greenhouses built.
Looking at the vast and vacant greenhouse fields that stretch as far as the eye can see, the people seem to have seen the scene of fragrant rice and abundant fruits in the fields in the near future.
While people were busy outside the city, the people who stayed in the city also had some wonderful experiences.
Liu Wenchi bought a batch of weapons and hoverboards for the government office. The weapons were of no use for the time being, but the officers were very interested in the hoverboards that could carry people flying.
In addition to the people who went outside the city to supervise the work, the servants who stayed at the government office learned how to use the skateboard from Lu Xuan, and practiced how to operate the skateboard almost every day.
On the first day, due to lack of experience, everyone only practiced in the courtyard of the government office.
On the second day, some people tried to fly over the city a few times.
At first, the people in the city were shocked when they saw something flying out of the government office. They thought it was a new companion of the immortal messenger. But when they looked closely, they found that the person was wearing the uniform of an official from the government office.
Someone couldn't help but scream: "The government officials flew into the sky!"
"What!?"
"Did he really go to heaven? What happened?"
The people were all in a state of confusion and bewilderment. Some children, who had had enough food and some candy to regain their spirits in the past two days, were watching the officers flying around in the sky and were shouting excitedly, chasing after them.
The officers who had just started were not very skilled in the use of the aircraft, and often some of them would end up hanging in the air because they could not keep their balance.
The people were terrified, but some of them rushed over kind-heartedly to save the person. Of course, the person did not fall down in the end. Soon the people discovered that the flying board would automatically rise when an accident happened to the person on it, and would lock the driver's feet tightly. It only looked scary, but in fact there was no danger at all.
After seeing the upside-down scene dozens of times a day, the people gradually calmed down, and their shock and tension quickly turned into surprise and a mentality of watching the fun. Whenever they saw someone flying, a group of people would gather around as if watching a magic trick.
By the time the greenhouse was completed, some of the officers were no longer hung upside down to be laughed at, and the speed of the skateboards was getting faster and faster.
Just when the officials were flying and the people were enjoying watching, the general Chu Ming who was out to intimidate the surrounding garrisons returned to the city.
