Chapter 49 Garcinia Maturity According to the market price, one stalk of Garcinia costs thirty Broken Spirit Stones, which means an annual income of forty-five Spirit Stones. If spiritual rice is planted, three acres of spiritual fields can mature four times a year. Based on the annual output of 300 kilograms per acre of spiritual fields, there will be about 3,600 kilograms of chalcedony rice every year, which is roughly the income of thirty-six spiritual stones. From this point of view, the benefits of growing Garcinia are obviously far greater than those of spiritual rice. No wonder those first-grade high-quality spiritual plant farmers rarely grow spiritual rice. "If I plant all of it with Garcinia, even after deducting the cost of purchasing spiritual seeds and the cost of replenishing the spiritual energy in the spiritual field every year, these three acres of spiritual field can bring me more than 30 spiritual stones." "If I had ten acres of spiritual fields, my annual income from spiritual plants would probably be no less than a hundred spiritual stones." "That's not all. The spiritual plants at the level of rare treasures and exotic treasures that are cultivated by chance are often several times more valuable than spiritual objects of the same level." Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, and couldn't help showing a hint of joy. The cost of cultivating spiritual fields is quite high, but the benefits it brings are also enormous. This does not include the value of Garcinia after it is refined into pills. Once Garcinia is refined into yellow bud pills, as long as the success rate is not too bad, the profits will increase significantly. You know, even in the early stage of Qinghe Immortal Sect's foundation building, the annual salary was estimated to be only two to three hundred spirit stones.
Of course, this is mainly because Ye Linyuan is now a super-grade spiritual plant husband. If it were a first-level, middle-grade spiritual plant farmer, he would not be able to grow Garcinia in large quantities. Although a first-level, high-grade spiritual plant farmer could grow Garcinia on a large scale, the yield per acre was far less than Ye Linyuan's. As long as a quasi-second-level spiritual plant husband has enough spiritual fields, his annual income should be at least two or three times that of the initial foundation-building period. "There are not enough garcinia seeds yet. It's time to pick that batch of garcinia and buy some more garcinia seeds." Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, and then looked at the acre of gamboge. He saw that after more than two years of planting, the ten gamboge plants on this acre had gradually matured and it was time to harvest. Garcinia takes decades to mature in the outside world, but when planted in a spiritual field and carefully cared for by a spiritual farmer, it can mature about every two to three years. There are only ten gamboge plants in this acre of fertile land. With the help of Ye Linyuan's magic of ripening, this acre of gamboge is finally about to mature. The price to pay is that this acre of fertile land has been completely abandoned, and it will be impossible for the soil to recover for at least several years. Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan did not delay. He cast the ripening spell for the last time, ripened them completely, and then harvested them. After picking this batch of Garcinia, Ye Linyuan screened the seeds, but found that none of them could be replanted. He shook his head with regret. As a true elixir, not just any seeds of Garcinia can be planted. Generally, only the spiritual seeds produced by Garcinia mother plants of rare treasure level can be replanted. Ordinary Garcinia seeds are not spiritual enough. Even if Garcinia is successfully grown, they are basically just ordinary seeds without spirituality, and their medicinal power is not even a few tenths of that of the spiritual medicine Garcinia. So Ye Linyuan put down the seeds with regret, and transplanted the remaining snake flower and planted it next to the Five Elements Wood. After doing all this, Ye Linyuan looked at the remaining spiritual fields and couldn't help falling into deep thought. Seeing this, Old Man Ye at the side couldn't help but look at the Garcinia seeds in Ye Linyuan's hand, and asked excitedly: "I wonder what you are going to do with these ten Garcinia plants?" Ye Linyuan pondered for a moment. These ten stalks of Garcinia were very valuable. If they were sold, they could fetch three spirit stones. If they were used to refine the Yellow Bud Pill, their value could be greatly increased. However, in order to refine pills, one needs spiritual fire, which is extremely rare and can only be ignited in an earth fire room or with spiritual wood. The Earth Fire Chamber is extremely precious, and only foundation-building cultivators can afford it. Spiritual wood is relatively cheap, and Ye Linyuan does have a five-element wood, but it will probably take quite some time for it to mature. Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart and couldn't help but look at the five elements wood.
After two years of cultivation, the three-inch sapling is now more than a foot tall, but it will take a long time for it to mature into a mature tree. As a first-class spiritual wood, the Five Elements Wood takes a long time to grow into timber. If it were in the outside world, it would take three hundred years to grow into timber. If planted in a spiritual field and cared for by a first-level spiritual plant husband, the time it takes to grow into good trees can be shortened to about ten years. Even with Ye Linyuan's spiritual plant level and the help of the low-grade spiritual field, it would probably take two or three years for it to mature. Of course, spiritual wood grows slowly, but the harvest is also amazing. Even if it is just the most basic five elements wood, after it matures, it can be cut into dozens of pieces of spiritual wood, and the lowest selling price will not be less than ten spiritual stones. Thinking of this, Ye Linyuan pondered and said, "Grandfather, please go to Qinghe Market and buy me a piece of Five Elements Wood. I will see if I can refine a furnace of Yellow Bud Pills." "By the way, buy some more Garcinia seeds and plant the remaining one or two acres of Garcinia." Old Man Ye nodded, and then said with a smile: "We still have a few magic tools in our hands. We can take this opportunity to sell them and exchange them for a batch of five-element wood for you to use in refining pills." Ye Linyuan nodded and said nothing more. Early the next morning, Old Man Ye went to the Qinghe Immortal Shop, sold five first-grade inferior magic tools at low prices, bought a piece of Five Elements Wood, and also bought eighty Garcinia spirit seeds. At this point, all the spirit stones and extra magical instruments they had previously seized had been sold out. Fortunately, with the five elements of wood and spirit seeds, Ye Linyuan was finally able to take action. He first planted eighty gamboge seeds, filling up the only three acres of spiritual fields, and returned to the spiritual eye of the cave with the five elements wood and the alchemy furnace. Before refining the elixir in seclusion, Ye Linyuan looked at Old Man Ye and told him, "I will be in seclusion for a few days this time. Grandfather, please protect me for a while." "Don't worry." Old Man Ye nodded and said solemnly, "I won't let anyone disturb you during this period of time." Ye Linyuan nodded, and without delay, began to refine the Huangya Pill. This time when refining the Huangya Pill, Ye Linyuan first cleaned the alchemy furnace, then ignited the piece of five elements wood, and warmed the alchemy furnace with the five elements spiritual fire, then he slowly breathed a sigh of relief. "Although the furnace is old, fortunately there are no major problems." After making sure that there was no problem with the alchemy furnace, Ye Linyuan immediately took out ten stalks of Garcinia and put them in. There are two types of furnaces for refining pills in this world: small furnace and large furnace. The small furnace refers to a furnace that holds one portion of spiritual medicine, and can only produce ten precious pills at most. The main focus is on careful carving. The large furnace can hold ten portions of materials at a time and can produce a hundred precious pills at a time. For an ordinary first-level alchemist, refining a large furnace of elixir is a very risky behavior, because failure is likely to lead to failure of all efforts. I will temporarily add another chapter today, and this book will hit Sanjiang in the next two weeks, which is the most critical period for a new book, so I urgently need you to read it. I hope you will not wait for the book to be published, and I hope it will be published sooner and put on the shelves sooner so that I can update it for everyone. (End of this chapter)
