Chapter 578: Chapter 588: Cultivating Special dicinal Herbs
Chu Feng’s fiancée, Han Xiaoying, had no choice but to enter the Seven Star Cave to evade Qin Shan’s harassnt. Fang Youming was also aware of this.
He thought that since Han Xiaoying was temporarily unable to accompany Chu Feng, he might be inclined to seek pleasures elsewhere. After all, which man isn’t fickle-hearted?
"No need to introduce won! Vice Mountain Master Fang, I just need your help to check on Han Shuang’s transfer process!"
Chu Feng did not lack beautiful won around him.
Others thought Han Shuang was ugly, but little did they know, this was a disguise she used to protect herself.
"Let
check. I have a copy of all personnel transfers in dicine Mountain!" As the Vice Mountain Master, Fang Youming was precisely in charge of overseeing all staff records of dicine Mountain.
After all, there were too many Outer Disciples; it was not possible to set up a Sect People’s Mansion like in the Inner Sect.
The only option was to manage it in layers.
"I found it... Half a month ago, one of Yang Tianbao’s subordinates, a dicine Farr nad Han Shuang, applied to exchange places with another dicine Farr from your dicine Field. Normally, such a minor exchange of two dicine Farrs should easily get approved."
Fang Youming frowned.
"It seems, Mao Wu Mountain Master intentionally suppressed this matter!" Fang Youming was very familiar with the procedural workflow. After checking, he imdiately understood which part of the process was problematic.
Chu Feng’s expression slightly changed, his eyes revealing a chilling gleam.
This Mao Wu Mountain Master, ti and again, unreasonably suppressed Chu Feng. He created obstacles at every turn.
"I must find a way to completely turn the tables on Mao Wu Mountain Master!" Chu Feng had long harbored the idea of replacing him, and now that Han Shuang’s transfer was blocked by Mao Wu, it made Chu Feng even more eager to topple him.
...
After returning from Fang Youming, Chu Feng went to his two dicine Fields to inspect them.
The Black God Mushrooms were shiny and oily black, with plump and solid caps, almost without any impurities or spots. Each one was of a premium quality, so even aged more than ten years.
And all that in less than a year.
If Chu Feng had a bit more ti, he would prepare so ripening secrets. If used to irrigate them, he believed they could age well beyond ten years.
The growth of the Azure Dragon Moss was equally pleasing, each strand climbing up the rocks like fearso Azure Dragons.
Those growing the best even had cracks forming on their stems.
Squeezing his fingers, Chu Feng reckoned it was about half a month till the day of the harvest of dicinal Herbs from each dicine Field.
Chu Feng was eagerly looking forward to it, hoping that these dicinal Herbs would help him establish significant rits and then compete with Mao Wu for the position of Mountain Master.
"My goal of advancing to Sword Saint is also nearly fulfilled; this last half a month is just right to manage these dicinal Herbs."
Half a month’s ti, wanting to ripen the dicinal Herbs due to the short period, would be challenging to see effective results.
Focus on nurturing a few plants, prepare special fertilizer, and with the aid of the Yin Yang Ants, enabling them to undergo a qualitative transformation should not be a difficult task. After all, Chu Feng is the Eternal Life Pill Master.
Being a man of action, he set to work imdiately.
He promptly visited the Sect-run store to purchase so Heavenly and Earthly Treasures used for preparing the special fertilizer. He spent nearly ten thousand silver taels, which really pinched his wallet.
Yet, to beco the Mountain Master, Chu Feng was willing to go all in.
"It’s a pity, I can’t buy True Dragon Blood at all. I can only substitute it with Green Snake Blood, which will definitely be less effective." After buying the materials, Chu Feng imdiately started preparing the special fertilizer.
The fertilizer used for irrigating the Azure Dragon Moss differed from the one for the Black God Mushrooms.
The best way to transform Azure Dragon Moss into real Dragon Blood Grass is to irrigate it with Dragon Blood. Moreover, it must be Azure Dragon Blood.
Using Fire Dragon blood would imdiately cause it to wither and die.
Under the current circumstances, it was too difficult for Chu Feng to obtain Azure Dragon Blood.
Moreover, it’s rely for the competition for the position of dicine Mountain Master, it’s really not worth using the precious ingredient of Azure Dragon Blood.
Replacing it with Green Snake Blood, and combining it with various auxiliary substances, the effect is also quite remarkable.
...
After spending nearly two days, Chu Feng finally completed the preparation of the two special fertilizers. So of the ingredients even needed the use of Abnormal Fire to lt them.
"Success or failure, it’s up to their fate now!"
Chu Feng, carrying two buckets of special fertilizer, chose over twenty of the best Azure Dragon Moss and Black God Mushroom to water.
This watering also requires finesse, not too concentrated, and not too much at once.
Thin and frequent watering is needed to ensure full absorption.
Just like humans eating, if one al is too heavy, it is easy to cause problems.
Strangely enough, as soon as Chu Feng’s specially prepared materials were poured, those dicinal herbs imdiately showed so subtle changes. Faintly, one could see wisps of purple smoke rising from the crowns of their leaves.
"Fellows, ti to work!"
Chu Feng commanded the ten Yin Yang Ant Queens with his Divine Thought.
Soon, they crawled out from their underground nests, and under Chu Feng’s guidance, assisted with the dicinal herbs that had been watered with special fertilizers.
You could see them lying at the roots of the herbs, emitting wisps of cold or hot air, helping the herbs to clear their ridians akin to a massage.
...
In the blink of an eye, a whole fourteen days had passed.
According to the annual rules, the dicine Mountain Chief would co down with his team to collect the dicinal herbs in two more days.
The over twenty best dicinal herbs, under Chu Feng’s ticulous care, were showing delightful transformations every day.
"Manager Chu, the Chief Clerk has arrived!"
Old Xia ran over to report to Chu Feng.
"Oh, he’s here already? Why has he co two whole days early?"
dicine Mountain No. 106 has exactly eight managers, each in charge of a section of the mountain. By rule, Chu Feng’s section shouldn’t be the first one to be visited.
In past years, it would always be at least two days later before the Chief Clerk would arrive at his section to collect herbs.
"Mao Wu Mountain Master is really ticulous in his calculations, deliberately having the Chief Clerk collect herbs from my field first to make my performance look worse," Chu Feng sneered coldly, quickly understanding that this was Mao Wu Mountain Master’s calculation against him.
The Chief Clerk represents the will of Mao Wu Mountain Master.
Arriving two days early didn’t have too much impact.
"Old Xia, imdiately notify all the small leaders of dicine Mountain to prepare for handing over the herbs. Have all dicine Farrs wait in their own fields and not go anywhere else."
Chu Feng imdiately fast-walked towards his own managent courtyard.
Inside the courtyard, he imdiately saw the Chief Clerk standing proudly with his hands behind his back; another twenty or so subordinates stood by his sides.
Although the Chief Clerk does not hold a real position, he represents the Mountain Master; his inspections and collection trips were always accompanied by an entourage, very impressive.
"Manager Chu Feng greets Master Cheng The Third!"
Chu Feng greeted with a full smile and bowed.
Master Cheng The Third, the Administrative Officer, slowly turned around, his expression haughty and pompous, "Ah, Little Chu is here! Cut to the chase, today I’ve been ordered to lead people down here to collect this year’s cultivated dicinal herbs. Lead the way."
