People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

But it is different from ordinary chemical fertilizers.

The effect of Bountiful Fertility is particularly amazing. It truly has the ability to grow crops even in the yellow sand with no fertility.

Of course.

The price is also quite high.

Regarding the benefits of fertility, Disiya's only addition is that Aru Village spends a lot of money to buy this thing every year to ensure that the farmland at the foot of the village can have sufficient harvests.

And from Disiya's words, Rhodes got the second information.

That is, if crops are planted outside Aru Village, monsters and bandits will be secondary to everything else. The main problem is sandstorms.

Rhodes had experienced sandstorms and knew very well how terrible such extremely severe weather can be in the desert.

Not to mention crops planted on flat land, even some trees that grow specifically in deserts may be blown away by their roots.

Besides.

There is another issue that Disiya did not mention.

After all, she was just a layman, so she probably knew these things from what she mentioned in her daily chat with Candice.

Soil erosion.

This is the most serious question.

After Rhodes came up with the intention of farming, he walked around the land and inspected it carefully.

The final conclusion.

It's just that this land can't hold water at all.

in other words.

Without the blessing of fertility, absolutely nothing can be grown here.

"The scholars in the village have also thought of what you are talking about."

"Just after on-site inspection, they came to the same conclusion as I just said, that this place is not suitable for growing crops at all."

Disiya patted Rhodes on the shoulder: "I know you want to contribute to Aru Village, but there is no way. The desert environment is like this. Unless you can stop sandstorms from disturbing Aru Village, otherwise this place will Don’t even think about using this place.”

"Let sandstorms no longer disturb Aru Village?"

These words seemed to remind Rhodes.

He didn't care about what Desiya said before. He wanted to contribute to Aru Village. What he cared about was what Desiya said after that.

I want the desert to stop disturbing Aru Village.

Isn’t this the most basic way to prevent soil erosion?

Plant trees, build slope protection, build water-saving irrigation canals, carry out protective plowing, and rotate crops.

I haven’t seen the pigs leave, but I have eaten the pork.

Rhodes' country in his previous life spent a lot of effort to control soil erosion, and his hometown was once an area with extremely serious soil erosion, so he had seen how soil erosion was controlled in his hometown since he was a child.

Now Desiya said this.

Not only did Rhodes not give up his previous idea, but he became even more motivated.

"Is this land unclaimed?"

His question also made Desiya frown.

She has repeatedly reminded Rhodes not to waste energy on this wasteland where there is no possibility of profit. Why is this guy still so stubborn?

"I'm just asking casually, don't think too much about it."

Seeing that Disiya seemed a little confused, Rhodes explained briefly.

"The entire periphery of Aru Village, as long as there is no one living there, is an unclaimed land."

Disiya shook her head slightly, then pointed to the large no-man's land around her, and continued: "If you want to try it, I won't stop you. But if you fail, don't blame me for not warning you."

"That's it."

Rhodes rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully: "Then do you know where in the village you can buy the benefits of abundance and seeds?"

"You really want to farm here."

Hearing this question, Disiya said in a dumbfounded voice: "There are people selling seeds in the village. If you want a good harvest, you can only go to Kavanyi."

Kavanyi is another pass between the Sumeru rainforest area and the desert area, and belongs to the rainforest area.

Having said this, a smile appeared on Rhode's face: "I'm on vacation for the past two days, and I've never been there. Can I ask you to be my guide?"

"Yes, yes."

"but."

"Oh, forget it, I won't advise you anymore."

"When the time comes when you hit a wall, you will give up."

Dixia originally wanted to continue persuading Rhodes, but when she saw Rhodes' determined expression, she gave up the idea, agreed with him on a departure time, and left in a hurry.

Rhodes did not move. He stood on the wasteland, grabbed a handful of soil and crushed it carefully in his hands, with a smile on his face.

Disiya actually misunderstood a bit.

That means he has no intention of planting here now.

The environment around this wasteland is really too bad. Even if Rhodes had a way to solve the problem of soil erosion, he would not be able to spend his own money to solve these problems.

He didn't have the capital or the ability to convince Aru Village to pay.

And the reason why he wants to buy the bounty of fertility and crop seeds.

Simply because the house he rented also had this type of yellow land.

It would be a good choice to use it as a test field.

Chapter 12 Disiya’s illustrious reputation

The distance between Kavanyi and Aru Village is not very far.

Rhodes and Disiya set out early in the morning, and before noon they could already see the outer city walls of Kavanyi.

The mission of the Blazing Hunting Beast this time is very simple. It is just a commission to help the Order to receive goods. It can be completed without Desiya's intervention.

Rhodes already knew this.

That's why he asked Disiya to take him to Kavanyi to buy some good things.

This is not just because someone is unfamiliar with the place.

Also, strictly speaking, he is now a gangster without identification.

It is impossible for such a black household status to buy the rich benefits of being strictly controlled by the Order Council in Xumi.

Therefore, he must find someone with a formal identity to accompany him.

Rhodes didn't have many acquaintances in Aru Village.

I can only ask Desiya.

"By the way, are you illiterate?"

Desiya asked curiously while sitting on the beast of burden.

This time she returned to Aru Village not just to visit Rhodes.

She also brought a copy of "Teyvat Literacy Encyclopedia" to Rhodes.

to be frank.

When Rhodes asked her to bring back a copy of "The Encyclopedia of Teyvat Literacy", Desiya was really surprised for a while.

When I first picked up Rhodes in the desert.

Although Rhodes's clothes were in rags at that time and he looked like a beggar, he still had slightly delicate skin and good clothes, so he was from a wealthy family.

Even if you are not a rainforest person, you should at least have a good family background.

In the end, he wanted a book like "Teyvat Literacy Encyclopedia" that only school-age children need.

This doubt has been in Desiya's mind for a long time.

Now she finally got the chance. After hesitating for a while, she couldn't help but ask.

In this regard.

Rod's answer was this: "I can read, but I can't write."

"what?"

"You know the words but you can't write?"

This situation was not normal, and Disiya was taken aback again.

Under normal circumstances.

People who can’t write probably don’t know how to read.

if not.

When learning calligraphy, you always have to practice with your pen.

How can someone know how to read but not how to write?

Rhodes didn't know how to explain this.

It all started when he asked Disiya to bring him a copy of "The Encyclopedia of Teyvat Literacy".

After all, Rhodes airborne to the Teyvat continent.

Now that he wants to gain a foothold in the desert, literacy is a must.

However, when Desiya actually gave the "Teyvat Literacy Encyclopedia" to Rhodes.

Rhodes was stunned.

He had only turned a few pages when he suddenly discovered a very serious question.

In his eyes, these Teyvat characters were no different from ghost-drawing talismans, but he actually knew them all!

And not only did he recognize them, he was also able to accurately pronounce the pronunciation of these words.

It's like, it's like an instinct.

It was as if he knew these words innately.

This discovery left Rhodes in a state of confusion.

He had obviously seen Teyvat's writing when he was in Aru Village before.

His memory is very good.

I remember very clearly that at that time, he was absolutely illiterate and could not read a single Chinese character.

But why did he suddenly become literate when he got this "Tevat Literacy Encyclopedia"?

What he was reading was a paper book, not the canned knowledge from the Order Academy.

And he doesn't have any golden fingers like the all-powerful academic system.

Logically speaking, this should not happen.

Rhodes, who didn't even think about it, couldn't possibly answer Desiya's question.

I could only smile bitterly and brush the matter off casually.

Calculate it carefully.

This is not the only unusual thing that happened to Rhodes.

He has special elemental power with healing power, amazing elemental control, and genius-like martial arts talent.

Now there is another text that one can understand Teyvat without any teacher.

Even if one of these things happened, it would be considered news in the Teyvat continent, enough to make the headlines of the Steam Bird newspaper, which is best-selling across the continent.
