Chapter 157 Selected
The two of them rushed to introduce all the seedlings and seeds they brought, and then waited for Josh's choice.
To be honest, the things they picked and brought over for Josh to choose from were not comparable to the regular ones she had seen in the free market before. It was hard to choose, really.
It was like a mountain of gold was placed in front of her and she was asked to choose five things. It was too difficult.
The big-tailed yak sifted these things silently and calmly, without interfering, letting Qiao Xi choose for himself first.
The empty rock rat was not calm. He had already shuttled through the seedlings countless times. He thought every one of them was good and wanted every one of them. It seemed that he had no future. Qiao Xi couldn't help but reflect on whether it was really appropriate to let the empty rock rat choose together.
The Brown-headed Vulture was as quiet as ever, observing the seeds silently.
"Please wait a moment, both of you, let us discuss this," Josh said embarrassedly.
Una and Kiran nodded and said that they needed to discuss it carefully and not to make a random choice. It would be best to choose me instead of his (her) one.
The big-tailed yak released a small energy shield. The man and three beasts discussed for a while inside. It was indeed difficult to make a decision.
Fortunately, the majority of people agreed on the seeds, and four seeds were determined. There was still one seed that Josh couldn't make a decision on. He wanted them all, what should he do!
The final decision is in Qiao Xi's hands, but she doesn't have too much psychological pressure. As long as she continues to make money, she will be able to buy back the good things she missed today sooner or later.
I really don’t know what to choose, and I’m at a stage where I can choose anything or nothing.
Kiran and Una's expressions were visibly tense, which kept them in a state of tension, and Josh felt a little bit sorry for them.
Not wanting to waste any more time, Qiao Xi and Sanshou looked at each other and said, "How about I go check the condition of those seeds and choose the ones with the strongest vitality?" Sanshou nodded.
Seeing Josh walk out of the energy shield, the two men breathed much heavier. After all, this was not their personal interest, but the interest of the entire legion. No one wanted to return empty-handed today.
Josh nodded at them: "Two logistics leaders, I will start to choose."
Una nodded, and Kieran also straightened up and looked at Josh. Although they were in different positions, they both felt the same uneasiness in their hearts at this moment.
"Thick-leaved Victoria amazonica", the surface of Weiguang Lake is empty, and the native water lilies have small round flowers and leaves, and their growth is average. They are just ordinary crops. Thick-leaved Victoria amazonica has well satisfied Qiao Xi's expectation for the beautiful scenery of Weiguang Lake.
Another thing is that the scene of the big-tailed yak being bitten and poisoned by the vertical-tailed rock lizard lingered in her mind for a long time. She used to wake up from time to time when she slept at night. She didn't want the same thing to happen a second time, but she still had no solution. Therefore, the minute he started to introduce it, Qiao Xi decided to choose this seed.
"Ghost Needle" is a mutated crop similar to Bidens pilosa. The difference is that the seeds of Bidens pilosa are linear and have barbs on the top, which can hook on the fur of people or animals and spread the seeds. The seeds of this mutated crop are diamond-shaped. When pinched off, a pungent liquid like strong liquor will flow out, which can quickly heal wounds. There are no barbs, and the whole seed is like a diamond-shaped needle, sharp.
When Josh saw the seed, he confirmed it without hesitation. After discussing it with the monsters, everyone agreed.
Una clenched her fists and breathed a little quickly. The two she had chosen were both from Kieran. She was very nervous. Could it be that the seeds she brought were not what Josh wanted?
If she didn't bring anything back, how would she face the soldiers in the legion?
Jilan was all smiles, looking very pleased with himself. He had secured two copies. Was he still worried that he wouldn't be able to choose the seeds from him for the remaining three copies? Hahahaha
As soon as the words "Big Leaf Ant Bean" fell, Kiran's smile stopped abruptly and Una breathed a sigh of relief.
Big-leaf ant beans, it’s not that the beans are called big-leaf ant beans, but they have a unique attached magical beast, the big-leaf ant. This precious attribute crop has rich attribute energy, but this is not the key to their preciousness. The key reason is that the fruits they produce are the main food of the big-leaf ants, and these big ants will only live around the big-leaf ant beans and cannot eat anything else for a long time.
This special beast can help farmers take care of all matters on the farm. Their bodies, which are several times larger than those of ordinary ants, allow them to lift greater weights, whether it is sowing, precise harvesting, plowing, or doing odd jobs and guarding.
The farm has vast arable land, and even with auxiliary monsters, it is impossible for one person to take care of it well. However, with large leaf ants, they will take care of everything and contribute all their strength to the construction of the farm.
This was chosen by the Brown-headed Vulture and the Big-tailed Yak. Qiao Xi was puzzled. The farm already had golden macaques, digging pigs, ladybugs and other small friends. Why did they need to choose these big ants?
The big-tailed yak mooed and asked Qiao Xi, there is still so much land around the farm, and it can be reclaimed dozens or hundreds of times more arable land. How much can Qiao Xi take care of with just the dozens of domesticated monsters on the farm and himself?
In the Giant Rock Highlands, it had seen large farms, each of which had thousands of domesticated monsters to look after the vast land.
The area developed by Weiguang Farm now is less than 10% of the developable area, not to mention the land after the extreme development. We have to prepare for the future.
When Qiao Xi heard this, he felt extremely annoyed. He had been dazzled by the excellent performance of the farm this year and forgot to think about the problems that existed on the farm. Compared with farms covering hundreds or thousands of hectares of land, such a small number of monsters was indeed too few.
"Thank you Big-tailed Yak, thank you Brown-headed Vulture, I know what to choose." Qiao Xi hugged the two monsters respectively and decided on the third option.
For the fourth "Rose Gooseberry", Una's eyes lit up again and she clenched her fists. Now they each had two shares. It could be said that the selection had reached a white-hot stage.
A hint of nervousness reappeared on Kiran's face. One more portion would mean a few more boxes of canned food, which would provide products for more soldiers. He couldn't help but be nervous.
This beautiful little fruit is quite different from its appearance in terms of toxicity, but it also has an attractive aroma. It is the main material for most exotic animal attractants, but its rarity makes it extremely rare and expensive.
Don't underestimate attractants. There are countless exotic beasts hiding in the countless secret realms around Chaoyang City. Even if all the pioneers in Chaoyang City are sent out, it is not certain how many exotic beasts can be killed. Instead, the legion will suffer heavy losses. Therefore, most of the time, other tactics are used, such as using highly poisonous baits.
