Chapter 139 Land and Plants (Updated)

The three elements of spellcasting.

Materials, models, and energy.

Build a spell model, inject your own energy, and use materials as a fulcrum to pry reality.

Casting.

The material is the special tree species in the hands of the elf lady.

No, where did you find this seed, and where did you take it out.

Ji Lin tilted his head and listened to the sound of the waves.

After confirming that five tall tree bird nests were to be planted, Forna took out five saplings that were completely different from the world tree saplings.

So that he could take her to the coast to plant these five special tall trees now.

Ji Lin looked at the five saplings that Forna placed in front of him, which seemed to be dormant. Their branches and leaves were folded, like ordinary saplings, with lush trunks and four leaves tightly attached to the trunks.

Ordinary saplings do not fold their branches and leaves.

Dig a hole and bury the sapling next to the shallows with relatively low salt content.

Take out a mana crystal.

The crystal cluster was easily destroyed by the Elf Lady. The light stream lingered around her wrist, dyed with green, and infused into the saplings that had been buried in the soil and had stretched out their branches and leaves.

The saplings slightly broke through the soil, stretched out their four green branches and leaves, and grew, showing their new breath.

Gorgeous and cool, it doesn't seem like the technology of this era.

"Is it... over?"

The Elf Lady wanted to turn around and go to the next location to bury it, but saw that her lord was still observing the saplings that were infused with elemental energy.

Explained.

"It will need to be taken care of continuously in the next period of time. It will complete several years of growth within ten days. I have to come here every day to take care of them and see if there is a tendency to overgrow or undergrowth. If so, they need to be adjusted."

This method of adjusting plant growth is only known to her.

This matter is really quite troublesome. She did not lie to Ji Lin here.

The Elf Lady nodded fiercely, indicating that she had worked very hard.

"Won't it grow very tall and big in a short time?"

Ji Lin described the other lords he had seen on the forum before. Some lords proudly showed off the scenes of them promoting the growth of plants within a day.

Growing up in a short time.

"Yes, it can, but the energy consumption is extremely serious... The five you gave me are not enough to make it grow in a day - the money used can buy a small piece of land in the Holy City!"

Folna shook her head and said, making an analogy to Ji Lin.

"Plants need nutrients and water to grow. The energy provided by crystals is not only used to promote its growth, but also when this tree grows and absorbs nutrients from the soil, it slowly stabilizes the nutrients in the nearby soil into a structure that can survive for a long time."

"This process also requires continuous watering and fertilization...to make this process faster."

Fast-growing plants will absorb nutrients from the soil very quickly. If the nutrients/fertility of the soil cannot be replenished, the crops will be worse from generation to generation, and finally this piece of land will be completely unable to grow crops normally.

In ancient times, burning rice straw and covering the soil with ash to decompose it was also considered to return some nutrients to the earth. The ash produced after burning rice straw is a very good fertilizer.

In ancient times, the Western Han Dynasty had already implemented fallow crop rotation. The Northern Wei Dynasty's "Qimin Yaoshu" records that "grain fields must be changed every year", "hemp wants good fields, do not use old ruins", "for all grain fields, mung beans and red beans are the best, hemp, millet, old hemp is the second, turnips and soybeans are the lowest".

Using the method of crop rotation, alternately cultivate different crops on the same piece of land or the method of multiple planting, balance the use of soil nutrients and adjust the fertility of the land.

Ji Lin nodded, not quite understanding. In his previous life, he occasionally heard that some lords who overused the spell of birthing exported a large amount of food in exchange for materials.

In this process, draining their own land, causing those lands to be completely desertified, and the land was sandy in large areas.

Overdrawing future potential in exchange for current benefits.

The natural cycle is destroyed.

In order to deal with these phenomena, they even have to pay several times the cost to restore the original fertility of the land.

Of course, Ji Lin is not an agricultural professional, and he has not accumulated common sense about farming in his previous life. After all, he is not a professional lord in charge of agriculture, and he does not understand the principle of natural cycle.

He just thinks that what Forna said makes sense.

Forna added.

"By the way, the soil here is not very good, too salty! So a lot of fertilizer needs to be buried in the soil here to improve the soil."

Then he still needs to mobilize fertilizer for this side - some natural fertilizer.

As for what natural fertilizer is, there is no need to say more here.

Forna is not needed for this kind of physical work.

So that these new trees will not be burned to death by the rich salt in the soil near the coast, this planting of a tree actually comes with the transformation of the nearby soil...

Five saplings were placed in the soil and spread out at the same distance.

Ji Lin originally planned to put one every kilometer, and it would be enough to put five along the coastline.

This is also the range of the coast they are currently affecting, a five-kilometer-long coast.

Walking past the fishing port, I ran into the dean who was inspecting the fishery production in the territory. After talking to him for a while and understanding the whole story, the dean also applied for two of these high tree bird nests to be placed in the engineering college.

Not for the sake of eating bird eggs.

Just to improve the food environment of future students and increase the comfort of the entire engineering college, so that students can have the best campus environment.

Ji Lin thought that what the dean said was actually not a problem. A group of white seabirds took off and landed in the building complex, facing the sunlight, which was quite classical.

It can also add some life to the college with a lot of machinery.

Well, there were only two saplings left in Forna's hands.

Just right.

The dean later lost ten hairs in one night to deal with the problem of bird droppings. He couldn't bear it anymore - he spent a lot of money to ask the casino owner. He is now the owner of a new orphanage. This old man who is good at gambling has begun to be keen on charity.

Why is there no pigeon excrement everywhere when there are so many pigeons in Tran.

Then get the special items that attract bird excrement, that's another story.

The current dean and lord are still immersed in the beautiful idea that the territory recipe can be expanded again.
