Originally, Fang Zheng thought that as long as he negotiated the deal and asked Nunnally to buy those spiritual crystals, he could happily sit at home and make money. But...

"That's all?"

Looking at the less than ten pieces of spiritual crystals in front of him, Fang Zheng's face turned dark.

"I'm so sorry..."

Looking at Fang Zheng's appearance, Nunnally also hurriedly apologized to him.

"I went to the Alchemist Association and learned that there is a quota limit on the purchase of spiritual crystals. I am only a junior alchemist, so I can only get these every month..."

"………………"

What's the use of these broken spirit crystals? I'm afraid Fangzheng would have gained more than this if he went to the forest and snowfields to sweep around the monsters. Moreover, the quality of these spirit crystals is not very good. A rough calculation would only add dozens of points.

Crystal energy………

"Not even if you have money?"

Fang Zheng has never seen anyone who has money and can't be pushed around, but looking at Nunnally's expression, it seems that it really can't be done.

"Oh well………"

Fang Zheng could only accept the result helplessly.

"So, how can we get a large number of spiritual crystals?"

"This...at least requires me to upgrade to an alchemist of level five or above..."

From Nunnally's words, Fang Zheng finally understood the Alchemist Association's upgrade system. In the Alchemist Association, there are two ways to upgrade. One is simple manufacturing. The Alchemist Studio's one-year manufacturing standard and

A certain amount of medicine is then purchased by the association. Then points are obtained. When a certain amount is reached, the level can be upgraded.

The other is creation. An alchemist’s job is to research inventions. If an alchemist can create a brand-new invention that has great market and application value, then the level can also be improved after being evaluated by the Alchemist Association. Not only that,

If his invention is used and manufactured by many alchemists, the points will be further increased.

"This is troublesome..."

After hearing Nunnally's answer, Fang Zheng was speechless for a moment. He originally thought that after obtaining the qualification, he could do whatever he wanted with money. Now it seems that the other party has obviously had similar experience and has closed the loopholes tightly. Think about it.

It is impossible to rely solely on buying and selling, so what should we do? There is no other way, just farm and upgrade.

Simply relying on commissions from the Alchemist Association would not work. Not to mention that the alchemy workshop was very poor and had very little equipment. Even if it did, Fang Zheng thought about it seriously and asked Nunnally, a girl, to do all this. It would not be a problem for a year or two.

There is absolutely no way to level up.

Then all that's left is to create a new invention, send it to the Alchemist Association for evaluation, and then raise the level as quickly as possible.

But... this is not easy either.

"Secret recipe passed down from generation to generation?"

Looking at Fang Zheng blankly, Nunnally's face clearly showed a trace of surprise.

"Sorry, we don't have any ancestral secret recipes in our family. My mother is just an ordinary alchemist..."

That's right. If this young lady had some secret recipe handed down from her ancestors, she wouldn't have gotten to this point. Originally, Fang Zheng thought she would have a leading role, but now it seems that she is just a passerby heroine.

"So, we can only invent and create by ourselves? This is not easy..."

While flipping through the catalog of the Alchemist Association in front of him, Fangzheng also frowned. These alchemists were also crazy about inventions and creations. They had made all kinds of medicines, weapons, even transportation and power furnaces.

In the words of Founder World, if you look around, there are so many patent barriers that you can't even try to reverse engineer a copycat... Huh? Wait!

After flipping through the "Patent Encyclopedia" in his hand, Fang Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up. Then he quickly opened the catalog and flipped through it again. Then, Fang Zheng discovered something.

Although on the surface, the inventions of these alchemists seem to be all-encompassing, there is one area that they have barely touched upon!

agriculture!

In the entire alchemist catalog, Founder found that there were only two inventions related to agriculture. One was similar to chemical fertilizers, and the other was similar to pesticides. What surprised him was that when he asked Nunnally, he was told

Nunnally proudly informed that these two were her mother's inventions!

There's nothing wrong with it!

Hearing Nunnally's answer, Fangzheng was shocked. These are pesticides and fertilizers, and they are the only ones in the world. I don't believe you are not the richest man in the world! How could you get to this point? I'm afraid you are not.

Are you kidding me?

Looking at Fang Zheng's expression, Nunnally was obviously a little embarrassed. Then she explained, and then Fang Zheng understood the reason.

Although the environment of this world is similar to that of Earth, the environment is much better than that of Earth. The soil is extremely fertile. It can be said that crops can grow very well without special fertilization. As for pests and diseases... There is a kind of insect in the main world that specially eats pests.

As long as the little monsters are raised by farmers, they are as necessary as cattle, so the market for pesticides is not big anymore.

And more importantly, although these two inventions of Nunnally's mother are quite effective, they are too expensive!

Nunnally's mother may have obsessive-compulsive disorder, so she completed these two inventions to perfection, and the materials used are also very high-end. Although the fertilizers and pesticides made from these materials are of this kind and that

It has the advantages of not causing pollution, but the problem is that it is expensive! If farmers buy it back and use it, they won’t even earn enough to pay it back in a year, so they are completely losing money!

"Why……………"

After listening to Nunnally's story, Fang Zheng also frowned and didn't know what to do for a while. Although he had Iron-Blooded World in his hands and could take out a bunch of high-tech products from there, Fang Zheng knew very well that the main

The world is not a fantasy world with a medieval level of civilization in many novels, and when he was in the sky arena, he also learned a lot about the "intellectuals" of this world. If he wanted to fool them, he might as well

To fool the medieval natives.

If a brand-new system product that is completely different from the current system is developed, it will be damned if no one doubts it.

According to Nunnally, there is no market in this world for pesticides, fertilizers, etc. that time travelers can use to show off. From this point of view, if you want to break through the "patent barriers" of those alchemists, you must develop hardware.

Are you working hard? But farm tool hardware is not something that can be obtained casually...

"Why……………"

Fang Zheng sighed again. Why did he feel that he was in a field like this? It was better to go to the border to kill monsters. It was just a waste of time. In addition, it was freezing cold and he had to bring a tent... Huh?

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, why did I forget this!

Ordinary agricultural machinery is difficult to operate, but isn’t a greenhouse a good direction?

"Nunnally."

"Yes, Master Ezio, what are your orders?"

Hearing Fang Zheng's voice, Nunnally hurriedly sat up straight and asked respectfully. She was not stupid either. Fang Zheng had asked so many questions just now, and she also knew that the other party wanted to improve her alchemist level so as to obtain

More spiritual crystal quotas. Nunnally is also very nervous now, because there is only a verbal agreement between her and the young man named "Ezio". Now she is really afraid that the other party will think that the value is not enough and turn around.

Let's go, if that's the case, then I will never be able to collect the fees to pay to the Alchemist Association. By then, my mother's workshop will be...

"What do the farmers here do every winter?"

"winter?"

Nunnally obviously didn't expect Fang Zheng to ask her such a baffling question, but she thought about it and answered.

"In winter...no one has anything to do. Some people will go up to the mountains to hunt together, while most people will stay at home and wait for the coming spring..."

"If they could farm in winter, would these people be willing?"

“Can we farm in winter?”

Hearing this, Nunnally opened her mouth wide in surprise. It took her a while to react, and she nodded vigorously.

"Of course, after all, everyone really has nothing else to do in winter, and hunting in the mountains is very dangerous. Many people are actually unwilling to do it, just because there is nothing to do, and... there must be something to gain.

.”

No matter which world, the peasant class is the worst group of people. The main world is certainly much better than the serfs in the Middle Ages. Since the soil in this world is fertile, growing crops is more effective than using chemical fertilizers, so there is no need to worry.

There will be production losses and famines, and the food grown is enough for the people of a country. But even so, the income of farmers in the main world is still very small. According to Nunnally, many of them venture up to the mountains to hunt in winter, just for

I can get more mountain goods and sell them, and then make some money.

If there really is something good that can be used for farming in winter, then these farmers would definitely want it!

but………

"Could we make something like this?"

Nunnally obviously has no confidence in this. Changing the climate is something that even a legendary mage can hardly do. She is just an alchemist!

"Of course, and it's very simple."

Regarding Nunnally's questions, Fang Zheng said he had no pressure.

With such a simple thing as a greenhouse, a bunch of information on the earth in the iron-blooded world, you can take it and copy it, and then use alchemy to create an otherworldly version. What's the difficulty?

only………

Looking at the girl in front of him, Fang Zheng sighed helplessly.

Others started out in other worlds engaged in high technology, but when you started out in another world, did you really start farming?
