The Strongest Militia Group in History_4 However, among them, there are so useful mutations, such as a plant that produced Yao Crystal Rice with increased grain size, which, if selectively cultivated, could gradually yield a relatively high-yield variety of grain.
But the problem is that even if a lot of effort is put into cultivating this kind of grain, it can only be planted secretly within the interior, since it cannot be promoted on a large scale – once people buy the seeds, they can keep seeds for future planting.
Any grain variety that is to be sold must be based on the inability to keep seeds; otherwise, no matter how much effort is invested, it is akin to making a wedding dress for soone else.
Wang Shouzhe’s family business is small, with so many clan mbers to feed, and he has not yet grown to a point where he can afford to give up family interests and make contributions to the whole world for free.
His current goal is to prioritize finding a variety that can control the sterility of the second-generation seeds.
Unfortunately, this ti he failed again.
Wang Shouzhe collected so of the better performing varieties and the grains from the other plants, ready for the next experint.
It doesn’t matter; he has plenty of ti to experint slowly, as the main battlefield is far from needing top-quality Spirit Rice for now.
Because whether it’s in the Great Qian Land or other countries, or even in the lofty Immortal Dynasty and Demonic Dynasty, the most massive production is still of ordinary rice and low-grade Spirit Rice.
And for the Wang family, and even the entire Great Qian Land, the future lies in these two main battlefields – this is also related to the rise of the Wang family and Great Qian in the future.
As for the current “Nation War” that is taking place, to Wang Shouzhe, it is but a minor interlude.
Wang Shouzhe leisurely erged from the Map of Rivers and Mountains and brewed a pot of tea, taking a brief rest in the afternoon sun. His long life and lengthy journey taught him to live at a slower pace and to enjoy such a leisurely rhythm.
Today is very rare; Emperor Longchang went to form a Militia Battalion with Anye, no longer having to hear his noisy card-playing.
He’d not rested for long,
when the voice of Artifact Spirit Xue’er sounded next to his ear: “Family Head, Wang Gui requests an audience, do you wish to see him?”
“Wang Gui?”
Wang Shouzhe slightly lost in thought, waved his hand, “That old fellow hasn’t co to see in over a decade, let him in.”
“Yes, Family Head.”
With Xue’er’s voice fading away, it wasn’t long before Wang Gui, accompanied by a sixteen or seventeen-year-old youth, entered – the young man bore a faint resemblance to Wang Gui’s younger self.
“Family Head… it’s been a long ti.”
Already white-haired and showing his age, Wang Gui moved forward emotionally to give his respects, his old eyes filled with tears, seemingly choked up and struggling to speak.
The young man who served by Shouzhe’s side back in the day, thanks to Wang Shouzhe’s care and the rapidly developing benefits of the Wang family, had just enough capital to be considered a Little Sky Pride and held a glimr of hope to Impact on the realm of heaven and humankind.
However, his insight and Talent were not strong, and it was still questionable whether he could take the next step.
“You rascal.” Wang Shouzhe said with a teasing smile, “Why haven’t you co to see in all these years?”
“Family Head.” Wang Gui wiped away his tears, his face breaking into a foolish grin, “Now you’re a high and mighty figure; how precious your ti is. How would this humble servant dare to disturb you without sothing important?”
Wang Shouzhe glanced at the nervous young man behind him and said with a faint smile, “If that’s the case, then you must have important matters today since you wouldn’t visit the Treasure Palace without good reason. Sit down, have so tea, and tell what’s going on.”
Shouzhe is a man who values old acquaintances; Wang Gui had served him for many years as a page. Though dispatched away with no significant achievents, he has been diligent in working for the Wang family for over a hundred years and is now considered an elder.
“Yes, Family Head. Oh, and the girl doesn’t need to busy herself with brewing tea; we shouldn’t waste it.” Wang Gui had thick skin, and upon sitting down, he stopped the maid from brewing tea, pulling out a pot from his Storage Ring and skilfully packing up the teapot remains that Shouzhe had left, scraping even the bottom clean.
“You’re still as… shaless as ever.” Wang Shouzhe, unable to help himself, slapped his forehead, this boy was shaless indeed. In his youth, he would often take Shouzhe’s diluted Spiritual Tea and cook it thoroughly with his rice.
But he was also clever; the tea that Shouzhe drank, what level was it? It was the Immortal Tea that even the Great Emperor would shalessly beg for. Even the leftover tea dregs were treasures.
“You are my master, what face do I need in front of you?” Wang Gui said with a cheeky smile, “These are treasures that money can’t buy, even brewing tea or cooking rice with them can prolong life.”
“Alright, tell , what brings you here this ti?” Wang Shouzhe didn’t mind giving him so fresh Immortal Tea, but Wang Gui was always tactful and would never accept it.
“Family Head, this is my great-grandson, Wang Xiaofu. At seven years old, he was tested and found to have a low Grade B innate Talent. After this old servant did everything possible to enhance his Bloodline, he is now Middle Sub-Grade B,” Wang Gui said, his aged face lit up with excitent and hope.
“Oh? That’s quite good.” Wang Shouzhe said, “How is he doing in the Clan School?”
Pushed forward by Wang Gui, Wang Xiaofu hurriedly stepped forward to greet, “Young Xiaofu has seen the Family Head. I used to be a classmate of Young Master Ningxi, but Young Master Ningxi’s grades were too good and he rapidly skipped grades to advance. However, Xiaofu is now studying the Clan School’s interdiate educational courses and ranks within the top fifteen of his class.”
