Chapter 65 Fruit Saplings
After tasting tea, Luo Mu asked Kati Dog to set off from the farm in the suburbs and came to Pingdie Town again.
There are two purposes for this trip. One is to take Kati Dog to see Grandma Juzi and tell her that the elf egg has successfully hatched into a healthy dog.
By the way, buy some crop seeds and saplings.
The second is to take the Messenger Bird, which was temporarily subdued by Luo Mu using the Poké Ball, to visit Miss Joy in Pingdie Town. Luo Mu has no problem dealing with some ordinary injuries, but situations like the Messenger Bird require Miss Joy's medical expertise. professionals helped.
Luo Mu first came to the farmer's market and walked to the [Seed Wholesale] shop with ease.
Probably because the typhoon and heavy rain had just passed, the ground at the farmer's market was still a little wet and muddy. There were still some things like signboards and flyers scattered on the ground. The merchants in each shop were dealing with problems in front of the door. The farmer's market is in a state of exhaustion.
The same is true for the seed wholesale store. Today, Grandma Juzi did not take a nap with her eyes closed on the recliner. Instead, she was bending over with a broom to clean up the water on the ground near the store.
Today, Ju Zi is wearing a long green dress that covers her calves, which is in line with her kind and steady temperament.
As Luo Mu approached, Ju Zi's cleaning movements stopped. After seeing the person clearly, a smile appeared on his old face. He stood up straight and said, "It's Xiao Mu. He hasn't been seen for more than half a month."
"Long time no see, Grandma Ju Zi." Luo Mu bowed politely, his eyes sharply noticed Ju Zi's movements, and asked knowingly: "Grandma Ju Zi, are you cleaning?"
Ju Zi nodded: "Yes, if the water remains for too long without being cleaned, it will not only stink, but the humid environment is also not friendly to some seeds in the store that need a dry environment."
"Then let me help too." Luo Mu smiled, picked up the second broom leaning against the wall on the other side, and swept up the water quickly.
The Kati dog also jumped to a slightly dry place and cheered Luo Mu with its barks.
Ju Zi wanted to decline Luo Mu's kindness, but the barking of Kati dog attracted her attention again. Because she happened to be wearing reading glasses, Ju Zi could clearly see the appearance of the Pokémon that made the sound at a glance, and said uncertainly: "Hey, could this kid be?"
Luo Mu nodded and confirmed: "Yes, the elf egg you entrusted to me hatched and became this very healthy Kati dog."
The broom in Ju Zi's hand fell to the ground and fell into the puddle, splashing water and staining her long skirt. However, Ju Zi didn't care about these trivial things. She walked to the Kati dog and squatted down to look at it carefully with her eyes.
The dog was not annoyed by being stared at by Ju Zi. Although it had no impression of Ju Zi, the close and kind atmosphere that Ju Zi exuded made the dog not mind Ju Zi's approach.
Ju Zi hesitated for a moment, then tentatively stretched out her right hand, which was covered with traces of time, towards the Kati dog.
The Kati dog didn't know what it meant to be reserved, so he took the initiative and leaned his head over, wagging his tail and enjoying Ju Zi's touch.
"It's so warm." The smile on Ju Zi's face gradually widened, and her eyes moved kindly on the Kati dog.
Ju Zi recalled the lonely figure of her son who left with a look of guilt on his face after he handed over this cold elf egg that never hatched to her.
Since then, the cold elf egg has never been able to hatch. It seems that because of the existence of the elf egg, the frequency of his son's return has also decreased.
And she tried her best, but the elf egg still couldn't hatch.
Fortunately, Luo Mu appeared.
Ju Zi sincerely felt that it was great that she entrusted the elf eggs and Kati dogs to Luo Mu.
Ju Zi's somewhat red eyes stared at Kati Dog, and her voice was soft: "Although it's a little late to say this now, I still want to say this belated blessing to you, welcome to this world, little one! "
Luo Mu, who did not stop sweeping the water, raised the corners of his mouth and his mood became better.
The first goal of going out was successfully achieved, and Luo Mu bought more types of seeds from Grandma Juzi's seed shop, preparing to go back and start official planting.
Then, under the introduction of Ju Zi's grandma who parted ways with Kati Gou, Luo Mu went to the deeper part of the farmer's market and met a male fruit sapling wholesaler named Zach.
There are not many types of fruit saplings wholesaled by Zac, including the common peach, orange and pomelo fruits. No matter how many varieties of fruit saplings you have to go to larger cities to sell them.
As for the more rare fruit saplings, such as sand scale fruit saplings, dragon fire fruit saplings, star peach fruit saplings, etc., they are hard to come by. The farms that own these fruit trees will regard them as their lifeblood and will not let them go out easily. .
Luo Mu, who has been replenishing relevant knowledge during this period of time, also has a certain understanding of fruit trees. Fruit trees in the Pokémon world generally use the cores of grown fruit for seedlings. The rarer the fruit trees, the more successful the seedlings are. The lower.
Of course, this is only a limitation of fruit trees. Fruit trees that produce ordinary fruits will be much simpler in all aspects.
Under Zach's recommendation, Luo Mu finally purchased five saplings of Taotaoguo, Chengchengguo and Wenyouguo. One fruit sapling cost 1,000 alliance coins, plus the crop seeds bought from Juzi's grandma. After erasing the zeros, a total of 19,000 alliance coins were spent.
The fruit saplings were delivered to the farm by Zach himself in a truck. After Luo Mu left the address, he left the farmer's market and headed to the Pokémon Center northwest of Pingdie Town.
On the way, Luo Mu took a look at the remaining alliance currency deposits.
After buying the damaged teapot and purchasing daily necessities, I still had 49,114 Union coins left in my deposit. This time I spent another 19,000 Union coins. In the end, I only had a little over 30,000 Union coins left. It seemed that I was on the verge of bankruptcy.
However, it will be the end of the month in a while. Although Luo Mu has not attended a single class now, the 50,000 yuan salary for the probation period of the month will be paid to Luo Mu's bank card on time at the end of the month.
Moreover, after the cotton wool shed by the Bai Pengpeng people accumulates for a while, they can also make some extra money by auctioning it in the market in Zhiqin Town.
In the process of acquiring knowledge, Luo Mu understood a truth. Don't just focus on various crops when opening a farm. The by-products of Pokémon, a magical existence, also have rich value.
Moo fresh milk from the big milk tank, goat milk from the mount goat, fruit from the tropical dragon, fermented juice from the pot, fat from the cod, green onions from the green onion duck, and so on.
Pokémon is like a treasure chest full of surprises. As long as you dig carefully, you will get surprises and treasures.
Luo Mu has a wealth of knowledge about Pokémon in his mind, and this knowledge will definitely help him develop his farm beyond imagination.
