MC's career as foreign lord
Chapter 31: Copper? The stubborn owner is furious!
What is the main thing? Of course, it's the planting of Elf Fruits! The two elves came for this, so we can't just forget about it.
However, this elemental creature caused a distraction and wasted a lot of time. Zhou Ren slowly took out the seeds of the Elf Fruit.
I didn't mention it before, but I can mention the Elf Fruit seeds here. Actually, the reason why Zhou Ren recognized it as wheat is mainly because it really looks like wheat seeds, with almost no difference except for the darker color.
Of course, you'll know it's different once you plant it. Wheat has four green shoots, while this seed only has one. Zhou Ren directly planted all the open space, and then took out the bone meal.
"Is this the thing that can make plants grow quickly?" Anna said curiously, her face full of eagerness.
This little silver dragon is indeed very energetic, her face almost saying "Get me one too."
However, Shia was much more reserved and didn't say anything, but pursed her lips and silently watched Zhou Ren perform.
Zhou Ren was quite used to the atmosphere between the two and didn't feel any tension. He shook the bone meal in his hand towards the Elf Fruit!
This wasn't the cafeteria aunt's trembling hand skill, but the standard bone meal release posture. When the bone meal quietly fell, the spirits of the three people were highly concentrated!
It was like bamboo shoots breaking through new soil, or like tender buds of a small tree piercing through old bark. How could the visual effect of breaking through everything be described as mere surprise?
The plant, which was originally just a small bud, began to develop rapidly under the support of a strange force!
It really was rapid development. In just two seconds, they seemed to have experienced a fast-forward, and the plant had grown to one-third of its full size, becoming about the height of a person's calf.
None of the three spoke. Zhou Ren shook the plant again! The white powder fell visibly, and the feeling of time reversal came again, making the three of them feel a little unreal for a moment.
But that was it. The Elf Fruit had grown into a small tree, and some green fruits could be seen on it, which didn't seem to have grown or matured yet.
"Last time!" Zhou Ren reminded them. Actually, he didn't need to remind them, because the eyes of the two people had never left the sapling and were still staring at it intently.
As the bone meal fell, the originally green fruits gradually matured, and the originally stagnant hearts seemed to be filled with a strange thing, becoming complete and rich!
Shia said, "If I go back now to study magic related to time, I think I should be able to learn it within half a year!"
Anna said, "I have integrated the inheritance about years and time in my mind. Even those old guys in the dragon clan probably don't understand it as deeply as I do!"
"Except for the Time Dragon!" Shia silently added.
Anna wasn't annoyed, "That's obvious! They are the agents of time, the perpetual motion machines of time. If you can't kill one, it means that countless ancient Time Dragons will besiege you. Isn't that courting death?"
Zhou Ren was curious, "Why would there be countless of them if you can't kill one?"
"Because Time Dragons walk above time. No matter what kind of creature it is, as long as they can't beat it, they will call for help from the future," Shia explained.
"Even a young Time Dragon can directly call itself that has become an Ancient Dragon, and there is no possibility of dying young!"
"Good fellow, I call you good fellow!" Zhou Ren complained. This world actually has such unreasonable creatures? Fortunately, I'm still reasonable.
The slight complaints and other things were over, and Zhou Ren silently moved his body, leaving the scene to the two female elves.
In a sense, except for not having opened the permissions, he felt that he was simply a kind person, introducing and personally overseeing everything. It wouldn't be too much to give him the title of Elf Friend, right?
It's just that the two of them fell into contemplation again when they looked at the Elf Fruit, which made Zhou Ren very helpless. You can contemplate if you want, but what do you mean by running around in my field?
"You can leave, but don't jump around on this farmland, something will happen!" Zhou Ren instructed, and then took two fruits from the Elf Fruit tree, giving one to each of them, before turning and leaving.
"Your permissions should still allow you to stay here until the evening. I won't see you off, I still have a lot of things to do!"
This wasn't an excuse, but a real thing.
After all, when the town chief invited him to the church at noon, he was still working hard to level the ground. Now, this work is still not finished.
He needs to level out the area of three fields, and then plant all the wheat, so that he can alleviate the food crisis on his ranch!
Although saying it's a crisis is a bit of an exaggeration, after all, he will need wheat to make a ranch and raise cattle, sheep, and chickens in the future, so it's always good to be prepared.
The wasteland isn't just soil. Zhou Ren actually saw a little mineral, exposed on the surface—he forgot that he had already dug up a layer.
"This color..." Zhou Ren was a little curious, and then a little surprised, "This is... copper?"
Only copper ore can explain this brass color. Zhou Ren was delighted. Doesn't this mean that he has discovered another mod?
"Industrial? GregTech? Tinker's Construct? Electrical? Galacticraft?" Zhou Ren immediately thought of several different mods, but all of them have copper ore.
These are all large mods. If he can develop them, why would he bother with manual farms and ranches! He would set up fully automated industrialization!
He immediately replaced the tool in his hand with a pickaxe. It was more serious to dig out the copper first, and everything else could be discussed later.
"Raw Copper? What is this thing?" He excitedly swung the pickaxe, but the thing he dug out made him frown.
Zhou Ren touched his head. What he dug out was raw copper? But, which mod has raw copper?
As a glorious 1.12 holdout, Zhou Ren was very confused, touching the raw copper and worrying.
But fortunately, his excellent memory helped him recall a new version introduction he had seen before.
"Raw copper, a mineral added in the new version... emmmm1.17, ah, this holdout of mine really missed a lot of things!" Zhou Ren sighed, and then directly opened a book.
This book is a crafting book. Combining a book with four workbenches and four pieces of paper can get a workbench crafting guide.
This is actually the content of the mod [G Crafting Table], but it seems to have been merged into the ordinary system, but it is still quite useful anyway.
Sure enough, Zhou Ren turned to the new crafting table, where it was written brightly: "Raw Copper, the original ore of My World, can be burned into copper ingots in a furnace."
"Ah, this really is content from version 1.17. That's a good thing," Zhou Ren exclaimed. Whether it's copper or iron, they can both be mined in their crude form, which means—fortune is on their side!
Of course, before we talk about that, let's give the newbies who don't know what Fortune is a little lesson on enchantments.
The previous [Silk Touch] and [Flame] were both types of enchantments that could add special effects to weapons and tools, and [Fortune] is one of them too.
[Fortune] can increase the yield of a resource that would normally only appear once, making it two, three, or even four. Simply put, it's exclusive to the lucky ones.
In previous versions, minerals like iron and gold couldn't be increased. They had to be smelted; one iron ore would only yield one iron ingot, with no way to get more.
But diamonds, emeralds, redstone, lapis lazuli, and coal could be increased because they're obtained as finished products, so Fortune could be used to amplify their yield.
But now, even iron, copper, and gold can be increased, which is definitely a good thing.
"No use thinking so much, I haven't even made an enchanting table yet!" Zhou Ren shook his head and put away the crafting manual.
It seems he's accumulating more and more books: [Territory Permissions], [Crafting Manual], and [Elf Notes]. He'll probably get even more in the future.
"If only there was a special backpack just for books!" Zhou Ren sighed. That kind of special backpack can only be made with mods!
He was actually a little disappointed, after all, he thought he could get new mods. These mods that could use copper were all extremely interesting and useful.
Not to mention, they all have electricity and can be charged! That means he could use his phone! Isn't a phone much more convenient than other things? It just can't connect to the internet.
The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!
Zhou Ren put away the crude copper. Since it's not a new mod, he'll obediently continue his life! He still needs to farm!
Speaking of which, copper can also be used to make some things, so he'll just have to try again later.
He quickly leveled all the land. The next job was to dig stones and fill the soil, filling all the space with dirt.
With Zhou Ren's current physical fitness, doing this was already very easy. Moreover, the roads here were also well made, so walking wasn't particularly troublesome, and another well could be built just right.
Due to the existence of the infinite water source, the well was just placed in its original position and didn't need to be dug. He simply replicated the well and placed it in the center of the road.
Then came plowing and planting. There's not much to say about this. The three fields together only took half an hour to complete, and finally, all the remaining seeds were planted.
Of course, it's not enough. If he really wants to plant everything, he'll probably have to wait for another wheat harvest.
By the time Zhou Ren finished all this, the sun had disappeared, and the mischievous moon reappeared, letting him know that it was time to rest tonight.
He didn't sleep all night yesterday, and today he encountered so many exciting situations, he was really exhausted.
He looked towards the direction of the door. Were the mercenaries gathering there again? Who would come knocking tonight?
Zhou Ren stretched his body. This was indeed a very interesting thing, but unfortunately, he couldn't participate.
Returning to the house, Zhou Ren put the crude copper into the furnace to smelt. He toasted two pieces of bread and took some grilled meat. Today's freshly made beetroot soup was still hot, hmm... better than lunch.
He routinely complained, put all the wheat he harvested today into the warehouse, revised tomorrow's memo, and went to sleep!
Sure enough, the bed that had previously rejected him now directly opened its arms to accept him, letting him fall asleep almost immediately.
Tomorrow's matters can be dealt with tomorrow!—
"Oh, I didn't expect that even if we didn't come out, this territory could still squeeze us out!" Anna complained, rubbing her head. Shia next to her didn't say a word, but her eyes were so bright that it made people feel uneasy.
Anna said triumphantly, "How about it! Was I right? The secrets on this kid are huge!"
Shia nodded, "He actually has so many secrets. Even a legend, no, even a saint might not have them!"
"He's either a legendary-level archmage or psionicist who can deceive our senses!" Anna said. "But I'm a silver dragon. Who can deceive me besides the gods?"
"Or he's a god from another realm, another god from the Prime Material Plane? Or a god from the Unknown Astral Plane?" Shia concluded, scratching her head in annoyance. "But he really doesn't know anything!"
Anna nodded. The two of them stood in the north wind like this, with a constant stream of people behind them at the windbreak wall. It seemed that even the strong wind couldn't stop the mercenaries' enthusiasm for getting rich.
The two of them stood here quietly, with a group of elven soldiers behind them, but no one looked here, as if they didn't exist.
"So the rest is our problem. This person is quite interesting. Why can't he become a friend?" Anna said. She was alone anyway, and she didn't have any worries. It's great to encounter such interesting things every day.
Shia was different. "I also want to be like you, just playing around every day. But once the elven high-ups know about this news, we can't hide it!"
"What if the elves think it's important and want to forcibly take him?" Anna guessed. "Tsk tsk tsk, your race is really shameless!"
"How can you, a dragon, have the nerve to say that I'm shameless?" Shia said, amused. "I don't want this kind of thing to happen either, but we can't hide it!"
Anna was also a little annoyed and headachey. "Those old fogeys in your clan are really hard to deal with! If it really doesn't work, I'll just let the Dragon God bless him. I don't believe anyone would dare to disrespect the Dragon Clan!"
"Yeah, yeah!" Shia敷衍 casually. "If the glory of the Platinum Dragon God shines down, do you believe that Tiamat's followers will flock here?"
Tiamat is the mother of evil dragons, and Bahamut, the god of good dragons, is her mortal enemy. If the glory really shines down, it will be a storm!
"That's true! So, that means the elves still have to find a way?" Anna said. "Princess Shia, hurry up and think of a way! What if he really is a sealed saint or a fallen god? We can't give up like this!"
Shia looked at her. "You're not quite right. You seem to be paying too much attention to him! Okay, didn't you say he's about the same as Corellon? I'll think of a way!"
