In the late Eastern Han period, it is likely that only Wheat and Carrots were cultivated in China. Other crops such as Potatoes, Beets, and Pumpkins had probably not yet been introduced at that time. This consultation aimed to yield unexpectedly good results.
Yun Xiao Yi first visited the Chu Family warehouse, where a variety of stored goods were piled up, resembling a small mountain in its grandeur. However, the primary contents were millet, foxtail millet, and ground Wheat. These grains were relatively easy to store for long periods, while the quantity of vegetables was limited. The vegetables were not fresh; most had been dried or preserved through salting methods used by ancient people. When consumed, they were typically soaked with millet or foxtail millet to make porridge.
The preservation methods for meat were similar; it was mainly dried or smoked. Fresh meat was rare since, during that era, there were no refrigerators. Without proper preservation, fresh vegetables and meat could spoil quickly.
"Are there any Wheat seeds here?" Yun Xiao Yi inquired. Zhu Ji quickly nodded and brought out several burlap bags filled with Wheat seeds. "Divine Lord, these are all Wheat seeds."
Although in reality, planting usually required soaking the seeds to germinate and mixing them with specific substances, in "My World," everything was much simpler: after using an Iron Shovel to till the land, one could sow the seeds directly and wait for them to grow naturally. Additionally, in "My World," Wheat had a wide range of uses; it could be made into food items like bread, cakes, and chocolate cookies, as well as used to attract and breed animals such as cows, sheep, goats, and Moo Mi.
Although the animal known as Moo Mi does not exist in reality, it is an adorable creature within the game. Additionally, Wheat can be used to feed horses, particularly young ones, as it helps them grow faster. Adult horses can regain a small amount of Health Points and increase their taming probability by consuming Wheat.
When Yun Xiao Yi picked up a handful of Wheat seeds, he suddenly felt a surge of magical power within him. It was as if he could simply plant these real-life Wheat seeds in the ground and grow Wheat crops that met the standards of the world in My World. Each handful of Wheat could roughly cover an area of one square block of land.
To transform real Wheat seeds into plants in My World, three conditions must be met: first, he must personally sow the seeds; second, the soil must consist of materials found within the game; and third, the soil needs to be tilled using tools from the game. Fortunately, all three requirements are not difficult to fulfill.
After careful consideration, Yun Xiao Yi decided to return to his luxurious villa in Zhao Jia Village for further testing. This was not just about planting; he also wanted to test whether these crops could reproduce in a manner similar to the Attractive creatures in My World—specifically, whether real animals could pair and breed like they do in the game.
"I'll take this bag of Wheat with me," Yun Xiao Yi said.
"Of course, Divine Lord. It is our duty to assist you," Zhu Ji immediately replied, clearly finding this a reasonable request.
To compensate Zhu Ji for his loss, Yun Xiao Yi gifted him ten cooked fish on the spot, each weighing ten pounds, totaling one hundred pounds. This was equivalent to the amount of Wheat Yun Xiao Yi was taking.
More importantly, this fish is not just a delicious dish; it is a creation from "My World" that can provide exceptional energy replenishment for mortals and even help restore vitality. Although Zhu Ji did not fully understand the deeper significance behind this, his companion Zhao Yun keenly recognized its value. He pulled Zhu Ji and another villager, Xiahou Xing, aside and whispered, "Chu Ji Clan Leader, Xiahou Clan Leader, don't you both feel that these fish are extraordinary?"
In response, the two appeared somewhat unconvinced, thinking it was merely food. Zhao Yun shook his head. If they did not cherish it, Zhao Jia Zhuang Village would be willing to trade five hundred pounds of other meat products for these special Cooked Fish.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ji immediately realized that there might be something extraordinary hidden behind these Cooked Fish. No way! These were gifts from the adults, infused with the aura of Shen Ren. Fortunately, he did not voice any desire to pay extra. Otherwise, Zhu Ji would likely become the first person in the Three Realms to gain fame for requesting additional payment.
Zhao Yun smiled and continued, "These fish are not ordinary items; consuming them directly can quickly restore physical strength. However, if eaten after one is already full, they can rapidly replenish the vitality lost due to blood loss."
"Replenish lost vitality?" Zhu Ji and Xiahou Xing both widened their eyes in surprise. Could it be that its effects are comparable to those of Lingzhi or Ginseng?
Zhao Yun nodded and then shook his head, saying:
