Chapter 621: Our life is sweeter than honey

"How can this be called bribery? It is called fair trade..." Zhao Min now has the true teachings of Zhuang not far away. "These children's bodies need sugar, and we need blue stone leaf sap. This is mutual benefit."

"Uncle Zhao, you are becoming more and more shameless!"

"Where are you taught by the owner of the manor."

Hehehehehe~

The two men smiled trepidly.

Zhao Min, who was honest and couldn't handle even a reporter, has long grown into a figure who trembles when he stomped his feet in the manor. Sometimes, what people lack is only a second chance.

I guess if I look back, even Zhao Min himself could not imagine it.

The so-called late achievement is just like that.

Although the farm is not far away, the farm rarely manages the farm's agriculture, but the farm is the most stable cash cow, which continuously supports the consumption of the manor and is also the ultimate confidence of the manor.

If there is land and there are people, there will be money.

Not far away, I saw that there were many wooden barrels next to me. I opened one of them casually, smelled them, and said, "Is it maple syrup?"

"Yes, there is only one sugar-producing crop in the manor now, but the Mihu Forest is too dangerous to enter easily, so we planted some sugar-producing maples outside the Mihu Forest."

There are two types of time acceleration in the manor.

One is to control the manor and accelerate stably, and the manor can be used.

Another type is the time acceleration, such as the forest of wood and moat, which is completely generated by the blood of time itself. This acceleration is uneven and extremely destructive. The instability of time has caused the distortion of space. So far, except for the terrible lifespan and life forms of the Mo people, whose lifespan is terrible and whose lifespan is almost endless, no creature dares to enter.

"However, the sugar-producing efficiency of sugar maple trees is too low. If the stone ant population in the manor grows larger, it will consume more and more sugars, so we are recently cultivating new sugar-producing crops to improve sugar-producing efficiency."

There are four common sugar-producing crops, sugar cane, beet, sugar maple (sugar maple), and sugar brown.

For people in the state, the first two are more common, southern sugar cane and northern beets. The last two are relatively rare. Sugar maple trees are also planted in the manors now. The sugar production comes from starch stored in winter, while sugar palm trees are specialties in tropical areas. The thick inflorescences will drip sugar juice outward after being cut.

Of course, this is just a sugar-producing plant in the traditional sense. In fact, with the development of the industry, there are many cases of direct hydrolysis of starch into sugar. For example, corn syrup is also a major supplier of human sugar intake.

However, Zhao Min is not optimistic about sugar: "The sugar we use every day is just a high-purity crystal with no nutritional value. In addition, the international market supply is stable, sugar prices have been on the rise recently. Unless the ancient methods of sugar production, natural sugar, etc. are promoted, and consumers' IQ tax is collected, the added value is not high. If the manor is planted, it will be a waste of manor resources. Therefore, the manor's sugar production crops are only used as emergency and supplements. For a long time, the manor's sugar demand will be mainly procurement."

Zhuang Buyuan nodded: "The business method of IQ tax is not advisable. You can't go far by collecting IQ tax. You are doing it right."

"At present, the estate has cultivated more than ten sugar-producing varieties that adapt to different environments and produce different sugars. We will continue to optimize the varieties in the future and strive to cultivate the best several specific information. We are here, please check it out."

Zhuang Buyuan looked around, nodded with satisfaction, and received the information in his bag, saying, "Okay, okay, tell me the subsequent progress at any time."

Then, not far away, Zhuang drooled at the pool of blue stone leaf sap again.

In addition to the "regional" function, the manor town also opens a "palace" for the manor owner.

Zhuang Buyuan had no idea about the "palace". Fortunately, the covenant achievement of the "God-building Power": one of the "Great Buildings", building ten buildings that meet the covenant will be rewarded with a drawing.

In other words, if you want to complete the upgrade of the manor, this is a hurdle that cannot be avoided.

But if you want to achieve the "great architecture" achievement, you must build ten giant buildings!

The requirements for "great buildings" are extremely high, and at the lowest level must be at the level of Huanshan Tunnel.

In addition to dealing with the threat of exile era, Zhuang Buyuan was also busy advancing this achievement, but there was not much progress before. With the continuous stream of bluestone leaf sap, many of his plans could be implemented.

Zhuang Buyuan praised Zhao Min severely, which made the old man so happy that he couldn't stop talking.

Not far from the village, Zhao Min immediately called several of his deputies to arrange for them to continue optimizing species and plant sugar-producing crops in the manor.

"The owner attaches great importance to it. Now the most important thing in the manor is blue stone leaf sap, and sugar production is blue stone leaf sap. What we plant is not sugar, but blue stone leaf sap! Come on, cheer up and do it! All other work is put into use. Recently, our focus is to cultivate perfect sugar-producing crops!"

The botanists of the manor divided four different sugar-producing crops into blocks and continuously selected and cultivated them. The experiments were in full swing. As the sugar-producing crops became more and more mature, half of the manor had a rich sweet fragrance.

This smell not only attracted the stone ants, but also many servants from the exile era in the manor stretched their necks and sucked desperately beside them.

On the contrary, the servants of the earth were all afraid to avoid it, especially Zhuang Buyuan, who covered his face for several days. He had tooth decay when he was a child, but now when he smelled the candy smell, he still felt his face hurt.

After Zhao Min finished his busy work for a while, he came out of the experimental field with a few pieces of candied crystals and saw that the roadside was full of servants standing on the side of the manor.

There are Nashenians, three-eyed men, lamp holders, velvet men, and fallen dragon men...

Even the rabbit, dragon, dog, dragon and tiger people are domesticated in the manor.

Seeing Zhao Min come out, the two brothers of three jin and four liang came up and asked, "What is this?"

"Sugar." Zhao Min said.

"Sugar? It's just that kind of white small grain of sand? Isn't that for stone ants?" Sanjin and four liang were confused, "Why does it smell...it looks delicious?"

"No way... you haven't eaten it before?" Zhao Min was stunned. The people on earth were promoting the harm of eating sugar all day long, and promoting less intake of sugar all day long. Even children knew that eating too much sugar would cause toothache. These guys had never eaten it before?

"No...no, can you eat it?"

"I've eaten it, I've eaten it, it's so delicious!" Li Jian jumped up in the crowd. Zhuang's father had syrup under Xiaofu's maple tree and poured them on shaved ice. At that time, Li Jian's belly was round.

However, not everyone can go to the owner's room not far from the village, and it cannot attract so many people as it is now.

Zhao Min looked at everyone with his eyes curled up at him, smiled, and handed over several pieces of crystals in his hand.

Sanjin relied on his big big hand to grab it, stretched out his snake-like tongue and licked it.

"Ouch..." At that moment, Sanjin was stunned as if he was punched.

The next second, he was like a large squirrel, holding up the large piece of candy in both hands and stuffed it into his mouth. A large pond bulged a bag on his cheek, which was sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right.

Next to him, Siliang looked at him blankly, twitched his nose, and then rushed up.

"You don't even give me such a delicious thing?"

"I'll kill you or not!"

"Spit it out for me, you spit it out for me!"

Siliang risked being bitten off his finger, first punched Sanjin and then broke open Sanjin's mouth and took out a large pond from his mouth. Regardless of the saliva on it, he stuffed it into his mouth and gave him a dark circle.

Zhao Min: “…”

Is it disgusting?

Are you really brothers?

Did your mother hold the wrong one?

Seeing Sanjin shook his head, get up from the ground, wave his fists and call him over, Zhao Min hurriedly said, "Don't, don't fight, there's more, there's more!"

Looking at the crowd behind him, he said, "Everything, all!"

Outside the farm, beside the experimental field, a group of manor servants squatting on the ground and eating candy pieces was really spectacular.

A group of manor servants were tearing while eating candy.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

"Why are there such delicious food in this world..."

A group of earthlings felt like they were watching monkey plays and were puzzled.

Is it really that delicious?

Nonglixin said: "In fact, for humans, before the development of industry, sugar was also a very rare delicacy. It can stimulate the human brain and produce dopamine. Think about what it felt like to eat sugar when we were young when the matter was still in short supply? The less abundant the matter, the sweeter it was. After all, sugar is the most direct energy-supplying substance... The exile era was very short of substance... Moreover, sugar seemed to be more attractive to creatures in the exile era than humans..."

A group of earthlings looked at the servants who were exiled in the era in front of them with emotion, just like watching the famine children.

This was just a small episode, but it passed quickly.

At night, everyone went to rest. The next morning, everyone returned to the test field and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Nong Lixin opened the warehouse door and glanced at it, and immediately shouted: "No...no, there are thieves in the manor!"

Zhao Min rushed over after hearing the sound. There was a lot of sugar stored in the warehouse, but now the entire warehouse is empty.

"The output last night has not been counted... This... who stole our candy! Which one killed the gods and stole the candy!"

A worker ant passing by turned around and ran away.

Three jin and four liang covered his mouth: "I didn't... slap... steal."

A hint of blush flashed across the face of the Nasunians: "We Nasunians never steal things..."

The three pupils of the three pupils spread out: "I didn't see anyone stealing..."

The velvet man licked his sticky claws: "I...suck...suck...suck...have nothing."

Zhao Min:...
