For Nunnally, her recent life has seemed like a dream. .

Especially after she signed the contract with the Northland Chamber of Commerce, Nunnally was quite flustered by the large amounts of gold coins. She even wondered more than once whether she was dreaming.

As a poor alchemist, Nunnally's biggest dream is to be able to do all research on alchemy without restrictions. Instead of having to consider what is cheap and what is easy to buy every time she does an experiment, she even

I also thought about using wild herbs to replace some alchemical formulas, just because I don’t have to spend money...

Of course, these all exploded in the end. But this is natural. If weeds can be used to replace alchemical materials, then alchemists will not burn so much money.

But now, Nunnally doesn't have to worry about these problems.

Her alchemy workshop has signed a contract with the Northland Chamber of Commerce, and the technologies of greenhouse and slime fertilizer are exclusively authorized for use by the Northland Chamber of Commerce. Not only that, due to the value of these two technologies, Nunnally has also upgraded two levels in a row.

Became a third-level alchemist.

Not only can she get the alchemy supplies she wants from the Alchemist Association, but she can also get some precious and rare alchemy materials from the Northland Chamber of Commerce. Not only that, Mr. Frese from the Northland Chamber of Commerce also promised that these supplies will be sold at cost.

It is sold at a low price, which is naturally a big surprise for Nunnally. It can be said that now Nunnally has fully lived the wonderful life she hoped for. As long as she can conduct alchemy research and experiments with peace of mind every day,

No need to worry about starving to death or living on the streets...

Of course, she has not forgotten who brought all this.

"Dong dong."

"Please come in."

Hearing the knock on the door, Nunnally shook the medicine bottle in her hand. After confirming that the solution inside had calmed down, she spoke. After hearing her response, the originally closed door opened.

Then Fang Zheng walked in.

"How's the situation? Miss Nunnally?"

"Ah, Mr. Ezio!"

Seeing Fang Zheng walking in, Nunnally also had a happy smile on her face, but soon, she sighed listlessly.

"Sorry, there is no progress yet..."

"The materials don't match well?"

"Well...it's mainly because there are some raw materials for which there are no good substitutes, and those that are configured still have various problems."

As she spoke, Nunnally looked to the side not far away. There were several wooden rectangular flowerpot-like containers placed there, with a solution similar to fresh water underneath, and a layer of wooden boards with holes on top.

, and some crops were planted at the same time. However, the growth of these vegetables was not good. They were either listless, wilted, or withered.

"It's going to take a long time."

Nunnally felt helpless when she said this, and Fang Zheng also nodded. To be honest, he thought things were too simple. At first, Fang Zheng thought that as long as there was slime fertilizer, he could prepare nutrients for soilless cultivation.

It was not difficult to make the liquid. But when it came time to actually do the experiment, Fang Zheng discovered that it was not the case at all.

It is true that slime fertilizer is comparable to golden garbage, which can accelerate the maturity of crops in advance and make the crops grow longer and better, but it is only an auxiliary product after all. It is like a health product, which may make your body and bones strong and prolong your life.

But it still can't replace staple foods such as rice, noodles, and steamed buns. You have to eat when you need to eat, and you have to drink water when you need to.

Slime fertilizer can replace part of the soil to a certain extent, but it cannot completely replace the soil. Although Nimfu has given a list through analysis of the earth's nutrient solution in the iron-blooded world. But how to use all the elements on this list?

It is very difficult for Nunnally to fuse them together and cooperate well.

Not to mention, agricultural research is a very time-consuming task. You can’t tell whether a nutrient solution is usable by just taking a sip. You have to plant crops and wait for them to grow, mature, and bear fruit on their own until you are sure.

Only when everything is OK can you proceed to the next step.

Fortunately, slime fertilizer greatly shortened the growth cycle of crops, otherwise Nunnally would have wasted more time.

Now Nunnally has cultivated more than a dozen nutrient solutions, but none of them seem to work.

"Is the preparation of nutrient solution more difficult than imagined?"

Fang Zheng said casually, then reached out and picked up the experimental records next to him and started to read them. Nunnally nodded helplessly.

"Yes, I have tried many combinations of medicinal herbs, but the results are not very satisfactory. Some of them are good, but the price of the materials will be relatively high..."

Since using slime to extract fertilizer and build a greenhouse, Nunnally has abandoned her original approach of "only using the best" and started to develop in the direction of "only focusing on the cheapest". She has

Her alchemy skills and knowledge are very solid, but Fang Zheng has now discovered that this girl is really easy to get into trouble...

"Don't consider the cost factor for now."

Looking at the girl in front of him, Fang Zheng was helpless. When he had no money before, the other party didn't consider the cost at all. Now that he has too much money to spend, he started to consider the cost instead.

"The price of nutrient solution is definitely higher than that of slime fertilizer, so don't think about reducing costs first. In short, use all the raw materials at your hand to make a nutrient solution that meets your needs, and then think about reducing costs.

From the beginning, our nutrient solution was not intended to be sold to farmers, and ordinary farmers might not be able to afford it."

"Not selling to farmers?"

Hearing this, Nunnally was stunned for a moment.

"So who do we sell to?"

"The Kingdom of Holy Religion is a very good partner."

Fang Zheng seemed very confident. After all, he was a Templar, and he had a certain understanding of the concept of the Kingdom of Holy Religion and their style. Even if something like a nutrient solution were made, the initial cost would not be significantly reduced. But if it is a Saint

It's different when it comes to purchasing goods from the Kingdom of God. For them, money has never been an issue.

And if it is used to maintain order and combat chaos, then it will not be a problem.

Although the mercenaries who followed Fang Zheng to the Dark City suffered heavy losses, they were given generous rewards and rewards by the temple after they returned. According to Shi Dong, the rewards received by the mercenary group were enough to equip half a

A heavily armed elite cavalry regiment.

The temple has a lot of money, and the money it can spend on this aspect will never be wasted.

After getting rich, Fang Zheng also found someone to repair and transform the entire alchemy workshop. Now the alchemy workshop is not as shabby as before, and it looks much better.

Basically, until now, Nunnally's alchemy workshop no longer functions as a "store", but has been transformed into a professional research institute. She no longer needs to accept other people's commissions to make things and sell them for money, she only needs to consider herself.

You can spend whatever money you want to research alchemy. As for those greenhouses and the like, Founder still kept them. After all, Nunnally's research is in agriculture, and when large-scale experiments are needed, these things can still be used. And inside

There is no need to sell the planted crops after they bloom and bear fruit. Previously, they were sold to increase the visibility of their products. Now that the Northland Chamber of Commerce has taken over these, the rest will naturally be given to the greenhouses.

The farmers in the greenhouse and the staff sent by the Alchemy Chamber of Commerce are doing welfare.

As for whether they take it back and eat it themselves or sell it, Fang Zheng has no control over it.

The important thing is that after the Northern Chamber of Commerce took away the "patent" authorization for greenhouses and slime fertilizers, the troubles that were swirling around before disappeared. The Northern Chamber of Commerce obtained the exclusive authorization, and other forces wanted to continue

To obtain this technology, you must deal with them. As a researcher, Nunnally was naturally excluded.

Of course, the Northern Chamber of Commerce reciprocated the favor and sent a team of people to guard the alchemy workshop. From this point of view, Frese is still very discerning and knows how to protect his "research assets." Someone else might have done it.

I'm a little dissatisfied, but Nunnally is a homebody and doesn't go out unless she can, so she doesn't really care.

But this time Fang Zheng came to see Nunnally, not just to discuss the issue of nutrient solution.

"In a few days, I will leave for a while. If anything happens, I will leave it to you to deal with."

"Why?"

Nunnally couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when she heard Fang Zheng's words.

"Mr. Ezio, do you want to leave?"

"I have some personal matters of my own to take care of."

Dealing with these things is not a long time or a short time for Fang Zheng, and one month will pass soon. Although he has been very leisurely this month, it is not in vain. You must know that this time the krypton gold summons is also

One month, after this month, a different card pool will be up next month.

Fang Zheng didn't know what the card pool would be up next month. This was not a game after all, so he planned to take a trip to the dimensional world before this month passed, preferably the magical world, to draw some magic.

The soul stone of the system is the best for Fang Zheng.

"But, but..."

Nunnally was obviously a little reluctant to hear that Fang Zheng was leaving. She was already very lonely living alone, and the arrival of Fang Zheng and Nimfu made her feel the atmosphere of a long-lost family. Although Fang Zheng's intentions were very mysterious,

Nunnally doesn't think he is a bad person. And he has helped her do so many things... This has made Nunnally dependent on Fang Zheng invisibly, but now, Fang Zheng said that he would leave temporarily...

"Don't worry."

Seeing Nunnally's uneasy expression, Fang Zheng smiled slightly.
