Yesterday I made a mistake, it was wo94shuaige mighty!
Cook couldn't help but take a closer look around, and Cook was suddenly surprised when he checked it, because there were a lot of ebonypotas in this rocky area, but he didn't find them just now.
"Boom!", another large rock was lifted, and the little rocket pig cubs swarmed in, eating the large pieces of ebony potatoes that had been turned out.
Cook carefully observed for a while, and finally found out why there are so many ebony potatoes in this rocky area, it turns out that the wild rocket pigs like to eat ebony potatoes very much, and the ebony potatoes in other places are estimated to be eaten by these wild rocket pigs.
Most of the ebony potatoes in this rocky area grow under the stones, obviously avoiding the gnawing of the wild rocket pigs, but some of the stones can be turned by the wild rocket pigs, but this is only a part of it after all, and the ebony potatoes under the thousands of tons of large stones must still be left below, and the fire is also preserved for the reproduction of the ebonyca.
"Looks like it's going to pick up the pace, these guys eat so much at once. "Cook is distressed, these ebony potatoes don't seem to be growing in a very picky environment, so it means that they can be planted on a large scale, as for whether they can be eaten, isn't this nonsense?
Don't you see the little cubs of those wild rocket pigs eating happily, the adult body of the wild rocket pig may eat some poisonous plants, but the little cubs will not, which means that their bodies can't stand the toxin.
However, Cook was still not at ease, quietly slipped down the stone, and then looked left and right, there were many ebony potato vines, but most of the root system went deep under the boulder, Cook finally found a thinner vine, and dug out a few pieces of ebony potato in three clicks.
The skin of the ebony cassava is purple-black and hard, and Cook peels the purple-black skin, which also has a hint of purple inside, but most of it is snow-white, and some white slurry comes out.
"Isn't this a sweet potato?" Cook couldn't help but wonder when he found that the ebony cassava was the same as the sweet potato on earth.
Cook released a toxin test and found that there was no poison, so Cook cut a piece and put it in his mouth, then nodded: "It's a little sweet, but it's not very strong, and it's very hard." ”
But this is already perfect for Cook, you must know that the sugar in this world is very expensive, those are only eaten by the aristocracy, even if it is fruit, only part of it is delicious, because this world is not like the earth, there are chemical fertilizers, there is water irrigation, unless the wind and rain are good, the fruit is good, otherwise the sweetness of the fruit is far less strong than on the earth.
Since the ebony is edible, then the next step is to catch this group of guys who are still ruining the ebonyva, but Cook calculated, to catch these guys, it will take at least ten days of work by himself, and how big the loss of these ebony potatoes should be in ten days.
There is also such a large area, it is impossible to ask himself to dig ebonyava, such a large area, and these huge boulders, Cook felt that this was not something he could do when he thought of this.
"Bagru, gather a thousand ogre knights, Luocuo, gather a thousand troll knights for me, too. "Since you can't do it yourself, then find someone to do it, and after Cook understands it, he directly gives orders to Bagru and Luocuo.
After Cook gave the order, he slipped directly into the forest, and then found a safer place, activated the solo teleportation array, and let Kaka and the small arrow wait here, Cook returned to the capital of the Mekay Empire, and then set up a solo teleportation array.
"Baglu, Lhocuo, when you go out, first stationed on the spot, and stay on guard first. Cook directly instructed Bagru and Luocuo, who had already been prepared, and then began to teleport, because in the past, this one-person teleportation array was placed in a secret place, but now Cook took out the teleportation array, after all, the secret place could not accommodate two thousand people.
"I'm exhausted. "It took Cook more than thirty times to change the magic crystals embedded on the teleportation array to teleport two thousand people, and it took nearly three hours.
"Bagru, Luocuo, do you see, get those guys for me!" Cook said as he led Bagru and Luocuo to a large rock and pointed to the Wild Rocket Pig in the distance.
"No problem, sir!" Bagru and Luocuo thought it was a big deal to catch the monsters, you must know that ogres and trolls are hunting monsters, although the level of this group of monsters is higher, and the number is more, but Bagru and Luocuo's subordinates are all knights, at least they are the mounts of intermediate monsters, plus sophisticated weapons, I don't know how many times the combat power of holding a wooden stick has increased before.
What was Cook doing, of course, he sat there and watched, and Bagru discussed it with Luocuo, and then mixed up to hunt according to a squad of troll knights and a squad of ogre knights.
Then two thousand ogres and trolls scattered, surrounded this group of barbarian rocket pigs from afar, Cook finally saw the hunting methods of ogres and trolls, surrounding, dividing, and breaking each one, anyway, half a day has not passed, Bagru and Luocuo have completed the task, as for the leader of the barbarian rocket pigs, he was taken down by Bagru himself.
"Take it and treat them. Cook looked at the unconscious Brute Rocket Pig and gave Bagru some healing potions, and I have to say that the reason why the ogre was able to survive in the forest made sense.
What happened next was very smooth, and in three days, the whole rocky slope was almost turned over, and the harvested ebony potatoes were piled up into a hill, and there were ebony potato vines, because Cook found that these ebony potatoes were similar to sweet potatoes. As long as the stems are creeping on the ground, there are roots underneath, and there are small ebony potatoes, which are obviously also propagated by cuttings.
After Cook returned to Makay City, he came directly to a huge manor in the northwest of Makay City, which belonged to the manor that had not yet been distributed, originally a wolf noble, covering an area of more than 400 hectares of land, which was converted to 40,000 acres of land, but this was not enough, because there were too many ebony potatoes, and the area of the rocky slopes was more than 20 square kilometers, which was converted to more than 2,000 hectares.
Not to mention that the ebony cassava was cut with vines, so the area would be expanded, so Cook asked someone to plant the more than 400 hectares of land first, and it was the first time for these orcs to plant such a thing.
Ploughing, ridges, transplanting, watering, etc. are all under the command of Cook, fortunately, the water source in this place is not bad, in fact, ebony and sweet potatoes are the same, most suitable for transplanting before rain, and the survival rate is very high.
The main reason why Cook wants to do this is to train a group of people who can skillfully grow ebonyava, 40,000 acres of land, Cook took 10 days to complete the transplanting, and hired more than 5,000 people, of which 1,000 people were transplanted alone.
The rest of the ebony potato Cook had no choice but to give orders to the soldiers, provided that Cook was responsible for the recovery, of course.
In fact, planting sweet potatoes is the most seed-free, a hundred catties of sweet potatoes through the vines cultivated in the greenhouse, and then cut into four leaves and one section of cuttings, can be planted on more than ten or twenty acres of land. "I won't say the details" so sweet potatoes not only have a high yield, at least dozens of times the yield, but also sweet potatoes are drought tolerant and are one of the most suitable crops for planting in dry lands.
The most important thing is that this thing is not afraid of hail, unless it is extremely hail, but crops like ebony and cassava have no possibility of being harvested at all, and it can only be said that the harvest is more or less.
After being busy for more than a month, Cook finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the ebony potato was planted, and Cook had to keep checking and counting on Windsor, which was impossible, and now Windsor and Lina were studying the Elemental Fruit, Mickey returned to the Musou Academy again, Manly returned to the territory, and Sia also returned to the Barony's Territory to continue to run the Airship Chamber of Commerce.
Cook is paying attention to the news of the Orc Empire, following the civil strife in the Minotaur territory, the Doug people in various places are also constantly making trouble, and some bear people are also a little ready to move.
One-fifth of the territory of the Minotaurs has been controlled by the Red Hoof, and then Cook sent a large number of backbones of the mutual aid association, not that the Red Hoof and his party do not continue to attack, but that the Red Hoof and others are also recruiting soldiers, training, and accumulating the next wave of attacks.
Weapons and food were sent to the territory of the Minotaurs, and a large number of captives began to widen the roads on various roads, and all of them developed according to Cook's plan.
"Cook, there's bad news. "Connie is going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, Cook just went to see the growth of ebony potatoes once, it was very good, the survival rate was very high, just came back and sat down, Connie came to the door.
"What's the bad news?" asked Cook immediately when he stood up.
"The beast army is ready to retreat. Connie spoke.
This is really not good news, and this is what Cook thought when he heard the news, but then Cook asked, "Is the source reliable?"
"Reliable!" Connie replied.
"Headache!" Cook had a headache, the reason why Cook wanted to lead the rabbit people to make trouble at this time was to see that the orc coalition did not dare to withdraw lightly, you must know that the alliance between humans and the orc empire is as high as millions, even if the wolf cavalry withdrew, the rest of the orc coalition did not dare to withdraw lightly, because millions of human coalition troops were eyeing each other, and if they followed, it would be over.
The orc empire coalition did not dare to withdraw, and the human coalition army did not dare to withdraw, so where is the stalemate between the two sides, what Cook needs is this, he can make trouble in the orc empire.
Once the Orc Empire coalition withdraws, even if Cook can win, then it will only be a situation full of holes, in case the Human Empire comes to take advantage of the fire at this time, then Cook will easily give up what he has in hand.
"Connie, we must take the Golden Pass before winter comes. Cook thought for a moment and said.
"Well, take the Golden Pass, and the territories are connected. "Connie is a man who understands, and once Cook's territories are connected, Cook can borrow troops to resist the Orc Empire's offensive if necessary.
That's the worst-case scenario, Connie thought about it and said, "Cook, can you find a way to get the human coalition to launch a few attacks?"
"I'm going to figure it out. Cook thought about it, it's not impossible, but the human coalition simply doesn't have the courage to take the initiative to attack.
