Studying Science in the Alternate World

Soon Sally brought Levin over.

After seeing Duke, Levin was very happy, but a little embarrassed, scratching the back of his head and not knowing what to say.

"You got fired, didn't you?"

"Yes, boss."

"Then come and work for me. The salary is still the same as in the store. The monthly salary is 6 silver dragons. If you perform well at the end of the year, there will be a bonus."

"Yeah!" Levine nodded vigorously.

Duke smiled and asked, "I heard from Sally, you don't live at home now, do you?"

"They rented out my room," replied Levin, whose parents were not nice to him and tried to kick him out all his adult life.

Now that all the rooms are rented out, Levin can't go back, he was fired again, and he doesn't even have a place to live.

Fortunately, Aunt Abby took him in and let him stay at home for a few days.

"Go to Aunt Abby's house and move all your things here. You will live here from now on. There is a utility room next door. You can clean it yourself."

"Um!"

After Levin packed his things, Duke took him out for lunch.

With some money in his hand, Duke didn't want to treat himself harshly, so he went out of the restaurant when he should, after all, he only got a few dollars to eat - mainly to buy spirit beast meat in private to practice blood refining, which would cost a lot of money.

After lunch.

Then took Levin to Little Duke Farm.

The civilian construction team hired with money did not have any puppets to assist them, and they all relied on the workers' own hands and feet to work.

But the construction speed is not slow.

In a few days, the foundation has been dug, the wall frame has been set up, and the reinforced concrete has been poured. Of course, they are all ordinary steel bars, and no spiritual gold has been added. The main reason is that spirit gold is too expensive. The parts used to cast Sand Eagles cost a few golden dragon spirit gold, which is sky-high for building a house.

"Boss, what am I going to do on the farm?"

"You are a resident worker on the farm, and you have to do all kinds of chores, but our priority now is to hire a group of farmers to complete the autumn sowing of this hundred acres of land."

"What do we grow?"

"wheat."

Duke took Levin to supervise the construction team for a while, and then went to hire farmers without stopping. There are a large number of farms on the outskirts of Sheshou Town, and there are many fixed farming teams, who can be hired at any time as long as they spend money.

After negotiating the price of 50 silver dragons, they contracted all of the 100 acres of Little Duke Farm to a farming team.

The captain's name is Old Joseph, with a big beard and a pipe everywhere he goes.

"Leave it to us, my old Cerf's reputation is just like this big crab, reliable and reliable!" Old Cerf patted the giant crab-shaped puppet behind him, and said loudly to Duke.

This farming team has three dilapidated "crab-shaped puppets", which are civilian puppets specially developed by Erudite Tower for farms, integrating plowing, sowing, fertilizing, and harvesting. Relying on three crab-shaped puppets, the farming team can sow 50 mu of land a day.

It only takes two days for the 100 acres of land on the Little Duke Farm.

"Then when are you going to my farm?" Duke asked.

Old Joseph took a sip of his pipe and exhaled a big puff of smoke: "A week later, it has been exhausted in the past few days. You specialize in planting wheat, right? Don't worry, you will have time in a week...you have to go now If you buy wheat seeds, you get 20 catties of wheat seeds per acre of land!"

There are 20 catties of wheat seeds per mu of land, and 2000 catties of land per 100 mu of land.

Duke wrote it down and asked again: "I want to mix Lingzhi wheat, how much Lingzhi wheat is suitable?"

"In this case, you'd better ask a Lingzhi envoy to help you arrange it, but we grow wheat on other farms, most of which are ten acres of land mixed with one catty of Lingzhi wheat. You can buy ten catties, if it is less Five catties is fine, any lower will have no effect."

"I see." Duke nodded.

"We also need to buy fertilizer. I have seen the land on Xiaohewan. The soil is not fertile enough, so we need a lot of fertilizer."

"How much do you want to buy?"

"Sowing and fertilizing an acre of land requires about 20 catties of special fertilizer, and two additional fertilizers will be added later, so at least 50 catties of fertilizer should be applied to one mu of land."

Lingzhi can not only resonate with the air sea of ​​the spirit plant, but also resonate with the same plant.

Therefore, most of the farms grow Lingzhi wheat, but not all the land is sown with Lingzhi wheat seeds, because the cost would be too expensive. In the market, one catty of Lingzhi wheat seeds costs 30 silver dragons, and one mu of land requires twenty catties of seeds, which no farmer can afford.

Relying on Lingzhi's breathing resonance ability, it is completely possible to mix seeds, and mix a little Lingzhi wheat with ordinary wheat.

The Spiritual Plant Envoy then uses the breath method to guide, which can improve the quality of ordinary wheat, and even have a chance to evolve into a new spiritual plant.

Negotiated cooperation with the farming team and paid a deposit of 20 silver dragons.

Duke went to the seed shop in town.

Only ordinary seeds are sold here, and there are about four or five copper dragons for a catty of wheat seeds. He bought two thousand catties of wheat seeds at a time, and the boss finally sold them at the price of 4 copper dragons, a total of 80 silver dragons.

Then go to the fertilizer store.

Fertilizer is not much cheaper than seeds, and two catties of special fertilizer cost a copper dragon. Duke did the math, and he was not willing to buy all the 50 catties of special fertilizer for one mu of land. He first bought 10,000 catties of fertilizer needed for sowing. The total price was 50 silver dragons.

Then Duke went to Shenjiao City again, and went to a Lingzhi shop that he had visited before.

"Let's take a look." The boss was still enthusiastic.

"I'm here to buy Lingzhi wheat seeds, five catties."

"Chenghui 150 silver dragons."

"It's cheaper, boss, I have my own farm, and I will definitely come to your store to buy seeds from you, boss."

"Oh, small business... The young man is a farmer at a young age, and he will take care of my business in the future. I will give you this small packet of qi-enhancing fertilizer." Gas fertilizer is a discount.

Wait until all requirements are ready.

Duke did the math.

Fertilizer cost 50 silver dragons, followed by 2 gold dragons; wheat seeds cost 80 silver dragons, Lingzhi wheat planted cost 150 silver dragons; farming team sowing seeds cost 50 silver dragons.

"I have to hire someone to take care of the wheat seedlings in the middle, and I have to hire a farming team to harvest them later... If you put it all together, this crop of wheat costs at least 7 gold dragons!"

If the ten-year rent of 20 gold dragons is spread, based on the calculation of planting two crops of wheat a year, the cost of one crop of wheat will increase by 1 gold dragon.

"The cost of 8 gold dragons, I don't know if I can sell 20 gold dragons after the harvest next year... If I can sell it, it's okay to say, I can make a net profit of 12 gold dragons in half a year, which is equal to the income of 2 gold dragons a month. Make less money."

It's just that 20 golden dragons is an ideal income. The planting industry is greatly affected by the climate. If it is a disaster year, you may have to pay for it.

"It's better not to think about making money, just keep your capital."

Duke doesn't have to rely on the farm to make money, he is a card repairer, and refurbishing second-hand cards is his main income right now.

in this way.

At the beginning of October, the old Joseph brought the farming team to sow the seeds, and the house on the Little Duke Farm was also covered, waiting for the interior decoration.
