Shadow of Deep Space

Chapter 117 Seeds (Part )
The moment he walked out of the passage, fresh air rushed towards him, and his originally tired spirit suddenly became excited. It felt like breathing oxygen.

At the same time, the surrounding scene changed dramatically, and at a glance, there were endless cultivated fields.

Different crops are planted in each field, and you can see many students in school uniforms working hard in the fields.

Even the sides of the wide roads are planted with fruit trees, and not an inch of land is wasted.

The entire plantation was like a paradise. Su Ming and the others felt a little dazed for a moment, as if they had come to an undeveloped suitable planet.

"Okay, we're here! We can take off our backpacks now."

Mia then jumped off Su Ming's backpack and said in a very good mood.

When Rhine and the others heard what Mia said, they took off their backpacks, sat down on the ground, and spoke breathlessly.

"worn out."

“It feels like half my life is gone.”

Su Ming also took off his backpack and sat on the ground, gasping for breath.

At this time, an old man with a kind face and simple clothes came from a distance. He had a work badge around his neck, which read "Plantation Director Bao Yue".

When Mia saw Bao Yue coming over, she immediately went to greet him enthusiastically.

"Teacher Bao, the seeds you requested are delivered to you."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Bao Yue replied kindly.

"Not hard, not hard."

Mia responded with a smile.

When Rhine and the others heard the conversation between Mia and Bao Yue, they all looked up at her unhappily.

Of course she didn't feel tired. They were the ones carrying the things, and she was the squad leader who carried them. How could it be hard for her?

"This is your reward."

Bao Yue then took out a very thick envelope and handed it to Mia.

"Haha, I won't be polite with you."

Mia's eyes lit up when she saw the envelope, and she took it with a smile on her face. She took out the money from the envelope without any concealment and counted it in front of everyone.

Bao Yue seemed to be used to it, he asked with a smile.

"Teacher Mia, I don't quite understand why you have to use the car instead of having it carried here by manpower?"

"Oh, these seeds are so valuable, so of course we have to choose the best and safest way to transport them. Let me tell you, labor is very expensive these days. It's only because we are old friends that I didn't raise your price."

Mia said nonsense seriously.

"Haha, thank you then."

Bao Yue smiled and responded.

Su Ming and others watched this scene in silence.

Not long after, Mia finished the handover with Bao Yue. She walked back happily, clapping and shouting to everyone.

"Thank you for your hard work, students. Please stand up!"

"Huh? We haven't had a break yet?"

Zhang Yi and others complained while panting.

"That is, why on earth are we carrying all this stuff to the plantation?"

Mandy and others were also very puzzled.

"What do you mean by carrying these things? Do you know what you are carrying?"

Mia coughed and asked with a serious expression.

"What are you carrying?"

Everyone looked at Mia in confusion. "What you are carrying are precious first-generation and second-generation seeds."

“What are first-generation seeds and second-generation seeds?”

"You don't even know this, so let me tell you briefly. Crops grown from first-generation seeds can reproduce, but the yield and survival rate are not high. As for second-generation seeds, they are improved first-generation seeds. Although the yield and survival rate are improved, the crops grown cannot reproduce. The vegetables and fruits you usually eat are the products of second-generation seeds."

Mia said to everyone.

"Ah! Why can't plants reproduce indefinitely?"

"yes?"

Everyone asked in confusion.

"Of course they can reproduce indefinitely, but plants that can reproduce indefinitely are called mother plants, and seeds are called mother seeds. But both are monopolized by Vox Bio Interstellar Group! By the way, if you want to make money, I can teach you a little trick."

Mia suddenly became interested and spoke to everyone.

"What technique?"

Everyone looked at Mia in surprise.

"On the third planet, the temperature reverses every ten years. It either changes from extremely hot to freezing winter, or from freezing winter to extremely hot! But no matter which state it is, there will always be a short period of time when the surface temperature returns to normal. During this period of time, the earth will recover, and you can go to the surface to look for plants growing there. Many of those are mother plants, and they are very valuable."

Mia explained to Su Ming and others.

"Is there such a good thing? Then why don't we see any mother plants on the market?"

Angie asked curiously.

Mia said with a dark face when she heard Angie's question.

"That's because the Vox Bio Interstellar Group is particularly mean. Every time it revives, they will hire a large number of people to search the surface for plants, no matter what kind! And they will offer high prices to buy the mother plants collected by the scattered people without thinking. If you don't give them, they will do everything they can to destroy the mother plants in the hands of the scattered people! In this way, they can ensure their monopoly position."

"So arrogant? Then no one will intervene and fight back?"

"Why is no one in charge? No one is fighting? This plantation of the Royal Academy is fighting against the Vox Biological Interstellar Group. And you should be grateful to this plantation. Otherwise, how could you have a meal for 10 federal coins? You should know that it is sold for 5000 federal coins in the commercial street outside. The price difference is 500 times."

"Uh-huh."

Su Ming and others were very relieved when they heard the price difference. Fortunately, the Royal Court Academy was not inferior to this company.

"Okay, no more talking. You've all rested enough, it's time to go back now!"

Mia looked at the time and shouted to everyone.

"it is good."

Su Ming and the others stood up helplessly, and forced themselves to walk back.

"Hurry up! Don't be so slow. The uncles sweeping the floor in the academy are more energetic and vigorous than you! And this is only the first day. We have to continue tomorrow."

Mia urged Su Ming and others passionately.

Su Ming sighed slightly and began to lead the team back quickly.

At night.

Su Ming took a quick shower, walked out of the bathroom, and lay down on his bed.

Before he could relax his body, he smelled a stench of sweat.

Su Ming looked at the other beds helplessly, only to see Shi Wushan and others lying on the beds like dead fish, constantly groaning.

"Ugh!"

Su Ming silently got up from the bed, walked to the window, opened it for ventilation, and then lay down again.

"Do you think that teacher Mia is really training us?"

Shi Wushan couldn't help but complain.

At this time, Zhang Yi, who was lying on Shi Wushan's upper bunk, said unhappily.

"Training is bullshit. I see other classes training, either in the training ground or in the classroom! No one is forced to do hard labor like us. I suspect that Teacher Mia is using us as free cattle and horses to make money."
