As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 782 Little Coal Ball

Jiang Ran lowered her eyes, "Well, you can get up. It's good news. There is a reward. When you return, you can go to Li Zongguan to claim the reward."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

As long as the news is useful.

Ma Yun really felt relieved and forced a smile.

On the way, Jiang Ran and Jiang Nancheng met Li Yiniu by chance.

Whether it was a true chance encounter remains to be discussed.

Li Yiniu raised a flattering smile on his honest face and came up with two big watermelons in his arms.

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Prince, and to Lord Nancheng."

Jiang Nancheng bowed and also made a proper salute to Li Yiniu, "Greetings, Director."

"I can't bear it." Li Yiniu showed a panic expression, and waved his hands at Jiang Nancheng, "You are the younger brother of His Royal Highness the Prince. If you go to Dasu and the capital in the future, you will be His Royal Highness the Prince of Dasu!"

The latter smiled and nodded.

"Your Highness, these are the watermelons that have matured this year. They are being loaded onto trucks and shipped to Mingxiao City and Dongtian Village." Li Yiniu said with a smile.

There are not many fruits produced in Dasu, the more famous ones are watermelon, coconut and mulberry.

Because no demon spirits were born and the technology was not mature, there were not many watermelons in an acre of melon field, and the watermelons were not big. Farmers were reluctant to eat the watermelons they grew and basically sold them for money.

Part of the watermelons purchased by the county were supplied to the county's dignitaries, and part were sent to other places to be sold for money.

Li Yiniu handed the big watermelon in his hand to the guard behind Jiang Ran, "Your Highness, the watermelons in Qingshan Village are quite sweet this year. These are freshly picked. Your Highness and the others would like to try some?"

"Okay, now that I know these are the watermelons from Qingshan Village, go and do your work and don't be an eyesore here." Knowing that they were on a secret visit, this man still came close to them. He was really thick-skinned. Jiang Ran shook her head helplessly and waved her hand to drive Li Yiniu away.

"Okay!" Li Yiniu smiled, revealing his big white teeth. He didn't waste any more time talking to Jiang Ran and ran away immediately.

Some farmers surrounded Li Yiniu and asked who Jiang Ran and his group were. Li Yiniu just smiled and didn't answer.

"Director Li is a person who loves his hometown very much." Jiang Nancheng had already eaten the watermelon, spit out some watermelon seeds, and said so.

……

Jiang Ran and Jiang Nancheng's group's goal was actually the Lingze Islands and the Cocoa Spirit Monster. Along the way, they unexpectedly gained a deeper understanding of this year's harvest.

Among the necessities of life, Da Su has made some achievements in food.

In the cocoa orchard near Nanzhu Village, large, rugby-shaped fruits hang on the thick and lush branches.

This is the season when cocoa fruits are ripe, and fruit farmers are climbing up ladders to pick them.

The cocoa forest in Nanzhu Village is a government-owned orchard. No outsiders are allowed to approach it. Even the farmers who guard the orchard and pick cocoa fruits are assigned a job.

Jiang Ran's eyes immediately fell on a fruit tree, and saw a coal-like monster holding a cocoa fruit in its mouth, rushing towards her like a small firecracker.

"Yo Mi!!"

Jiang Ran took the small gift brought by Keke Lingguai and rubbed its chin. "Long time no see, Keke Lingguai. Congratulations on your growth."

The little coal ball shyly hid in Jiang Ran's neck, as if unable to bear Jiang Ran's such straightforward praise.

When Jiang Ran led the Black Armor Soldiers on a long voyage to search for the Sky Island, Jiang Nancheng successfully helped the Cocoa demon spirit overcome a difficulty in spiritual life, and it successfully gave birth to the general spiritual element.

[A cute cocoa tree spirit, a little sweet, and a little bitter. 】

Jiang Ran glanced across the cocoa forest. Compared to a few years ago, the cocoa forest was now larger, stretching over hundreds of acres, with abundant cocoa fruits hanging from the trees.

In addition to Coco, two other demon spirits have undergone earth-shaking changes in Jiang Nancheng's hands over the past three months.

One was a Fire Lotus Seed Spirit Monster, a rare demon spirit obtained when they conquered Phoenix Town, and now it had transformed from a spirit insect to a demon spirit monster. The other one evolved from a Polygonum Indigo Spirit Insect, and now it had become a Polygonum Indigo Spirit Monster.

[Shhh...quiet...]

Three months after Jiang Nancheng returned to Dasu, he managed to evolve two demon spirit insects into demon spirit monsters. The officials of Dasu were amazed, and some demon spirit masters in the county were under great pressure.

Originally, Xinjun was short of demon spirit masters, so they were valued. However, the prince's younger brother had returned and achieved such great success in just three months. It was hard for them not to feel a sense of urgency.

……

After saying goodbye to the Coco monster, the group arrived at Nanzhu Village and found that the road was bustling with people coming and going. It was almost night now. Normally, everyone would have packed up and gone home, but at this time, there were many vendors setting up stalls on the road, especially stalls selling all kinds of food and snacks, with fragrance everywhere and shouting sounds endless.

"Let's go and see what's going on ahead." Jiang Ran turned his head and said to the guard behind him.

The guard nodded, blended into the market, and bought some snacks with others while chatting with the vendor, "Boss, your grilled fish smells delicious. It looks like you're doing good business. But from your appearance, you don't look like you're from Nanzhu Village. How come you're here to sell snacks in Nanzhu Village?"

"Business is OK." The vendor had a smile on his face. "Well, you're right. I'm from Zhuoli County. I traveled all the way south to Sucheng just to see the Lingze Islands. The journey is long and the cost is very high, so I'm using my old business to make some money for the trip by selling grilled fish. Everyone is gathering in Nanzhu Village to see the Lingze Islands, and I've made enough money for the trip. Well, the night is the best time to see the scenery, so don't leave. When you're hungry, come back and patronize... If you sell more, I'll give you an extra fish."

As the merchant said this, he smiled and gave the servant an extra fish.

The attendant thanked him and squeezed out of the crowd, and soon found out why so many people gathered here.

The scene of the Lingze Islands appearing in the Suyuan Sea was seen by many people from Dasu.

The best places to observe are Nanzhu Village and Yajin Town. Therefore, many people go south to Nanzhu Village or Yajin Town to admire this miracle, just to catch a glimpse of the legendary sky island.

As night falls, the light becomes particularly eye-catching. The islands in the distance are shining brightly, and the green vines emit a faint glow, making the islands sparkle.

"What a magnificent sky island!!"

“It’s a miracle!”

"It's called Lingze Islands! It is said that His Royal Highness the Prince managed to make this island appear in our Dasu!"
