Chapter 497: Chapter 291 Harvey wants to cheat_2
Thousands of skeleton zombies were seen holding bundles of rice, coming to Central Mountain Range, passing them to the mountains, and stuffing them into those ventilated mountain caves.
Even in eternal night, there was an incessant wind here that would gradually dry all the rice.
“What’s going on? You still haven’t told me how you grew so much grain. This much food is enough to feed a few hundred thousand people. Are there that many people here now?” Harvey shook the mud from his foot and asked.
“Hehe, let Silver coin explain.” The Great Sage, looking at the grains in the mountain caves, showed a sense of satisfaction from the bountiful harvest, he was too lazy to talk, just staying there and laughing foolishly.
Harvey turned his gaze to Silver coin, who hurried forward to salute, explaining, “The production method here is quite primitive, organizational abilities are weak, workers’ enthusiasm cannot be fully mobilized, and advantages cannot be utilized to increase production efficiency. After I straightened it out, productivity greatly improved.”
Harvey stood there for a while before responding, “I understand each word you said, but I have no idea what you are talking about when they are all together. Can you give me some examples?”
Silver Coin rubbed his hands and explained, “For example, incentivizing the workers. In the past, people here would plant enough to feed themselves, they never tried to cultivate more fertile fields due to war, grain species, eternal night, and food processing.”
“So I suggested, give the newly cultivated fields to the tillers. The more they work, the more they get. We provide the grains, are responsible for repurchasing, and help with processing, taking a little service fee and loss.”
“This way, everyone’s enthusiasm was very high, they were working day and night. Because of the season, many of the newly opened fields were not used. Next planting season, there will be even more gain.”
Harvey suddenly realized, then asked, “Is grain species the new grain? What does food processing mean?”
“Oh, yes, those are new grains cultivated by the Master, that can mature in four months, the yield per acre is… uh, hasn’t been calculated yet, but it should be four to five hundred pounds, although it’s a bit less …”
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by the Great Sage, “Nonsense, an output of four to five hundred pounds per acre, how could that be a little less? The yield of our old grains was only just over a hundred pounds per acre, that’s five times more, how is that less?”
Silver coin shrunk his neck and muttered, “For Master Ange, it is less if it’s not over a thousand pounds.”
Considering the natural conditions on this plane, an output of four to five hundred pounds per acre is quite acceptable, so Silver coin did not dwell on this issue and continued to say, “As for food processing, it refers to shelling, grinding, baking, and adding ingredients.”
“When farmers shell and grind themselves, there is a large waste, and it’s also very time-consuming, sometimes the amount they get after a long time is not even enough for one meal for the whole family. So I suggested using natural wind, water, and bone power to centrally shell and grind, and save them the trouble,” Silver coin said.
“Bone power?” Harvey was startled and confused by the new term, it took him a moment to understand, could it be the skeleton? Bone power?
“Is it meaningful to let skeletons grind up and waste, doing free labor for those humans?” Harvey asked unpleasantly.
“That’s impossible!” Silver coin shouted, as if he had been insulted, “I, Silver coin, do things, how could I work for free?! You…”
The Great Sage quickly floated over and comforted, pulling back Silver coin, “Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. Harvey doesn’t understand the ways here, don’t quarrel with him.”
??? Harvey had a forehead full of question marks, what did he say wrong? Even if he did say something wrong, dared a small goblin to be angry? And the Great Sage is appeasing him? Damn, isn’t he afraid that he’d extract his soul and refine it?
Harvey remembered, this goblin does seem to be not afraid of him, he salutes naturally when he meets him, and does not panic when a regular living creature encounters a skeleton.
Realizing this, Harvey couldn’t help but ask, “Aren’t you afraid of me?”
Silver coin was slightly stunned, then said, “Under the protection of my Master, I am not afraid of anyone.”
Harvey’s eyes lit up, “Are you with the Church of Light? No, you don’t have that annoying aura.”
The magicians of the Church of Light, soaked in Power of Holy Light for many years, naturally carry an aura that is repugnant to the Undead, which can be smelled from several feet away.
“Ah? No, no, I am a witch.” Silver coin quickly said.
“What? You are a witch?” Harvey was shocked, his thought quickly scanned through.
In the thought scan of the Mourning Skeleton, the state of Silver coin was revealed.
Why didn’t Harvey scan Silver coin’s state at the beginning? Because Silver coin is a man of the Great Sage, the basic courtesy of the Undead Empire is not to scan others with thought, which is the same concept as lifting the skirt of others.
However, facing this situation, Harvey didn’t care about it anymore. A witch, why is he so alive?
After scanning with his thought, it turned out to be a witch. How strange.
“Why are you so alive?” Harvey prodded at Silver coin’s flesh, unable to believe what he was seeing.
“This is the power of my Master.” Silver coin proudly said.
“Your god can even make witches alive? Who is your god?” Harvey asked.
“My Lord, the Undead God.” Silver coin said.
“Puff…” Harvey burst into laughter, and the Great Sage standing beside him also couldn’t help but laugh.
The Undead God was the godhood of the king, but the king himself had a soul network already, which was a higher form of power than faith, so he didn’t need the Undead Godhood much and let it develop naturally.
