"How much budget do you have?" Seeing Luther lost in thought, Nanjo Aoi also realized something.
Although Luther said at the beginning that she would make a list based on the highest and best requirements, after she actually made the list, according to her estimation, money was definitely a big problem.
The price of saplings is often divided according to the age of the seedlings. One- and two-year-old saplings are often quite cheap, but the higher you go, the prices for saplings of three, four, and five years basically double with one more year.
Not to mention that in order to plant them step by step, it is best to purchase some fruit trees that have already entered the fruiting period and transplant them.
"To tell you the truth, I don't have a penny." Luther smiled bitterly, "My money has been drained by this island."
Every word in the list in his hand was like a money symbol in Luther's eyes.
"How much is this list...approximately?" Luther asked hesitantly.
Nanjo Aoi did not look down on Luther because he had no money, and she has not backed down yet. This kind of persistence is enough for her to appreciate.
"I don't know." Nanjo Aoi sighed, "Let's put it this way, the price of saplings will vary depending on the age of the seedlings, the degree of cultivation, the place of origin, and other reasons. Even if you open the website now to find their prices, you can only see them.
to the part.”
"As far as I know, the research institute in the Sinnoh region conducts grafting experiments on various saplings every year, and hundreds of new varieties are cultivated. Rainbow University, as a well-known elf university, has an agricultural major and specializes in the study of elf-related foods.
and fruit trees.”
"The Kalos region has long been committed to cultivating tree fruits that both humans and elves like to eat. Three of the three on this list are the research results of the Kalos region universities. These results were improved and accumulated by Carlos for more than ten years.
It was only put on the market three years ago. For example, sweet cherry trees are very expensive, but they are great fruit trees."
"I may need to go to Binhai City and Yangxin City to understand the latest information and market conditions before I can give you an answer, but I can give you a conservative expectation..."
Nanjo Aoi took a deep breath: "These 10,000 trees, at least six million, are needed. This is because I have lowered the age of the seedlings. You need to be mentally prepared. The final result will only be a lot more."
Even a person like Mira, who had no idea about money, was trembling.
Luther and Mai looked at each other. Ten thousand trees were close to one-fifth of the size of Lily of the Valley East Island.
Good guy...this is not burning money, it is melting.
Luther gritted his teeth: "You are a professional, I will leave it to you to decide."
As soon as these words were spoken, it meant that Luther's six million dollars were definitely melted.
However, this was for the sake of the wild elves on the island, and Luther had to do it no matter how distressed he was.
Nanjo Aoi walked up to Luther and stretched out her hand: "As long as you have this determination, I will help you unconditionally. It doesn't matter how hard or tired you are. I want to see what this island will look like after success."
Luther held Nanjo Aoi's hand and solemnly promised: "I can't give you a salary that matches your status and ability, but you can choose a land you like, and you will definitely not regret it in the future."
"Then I take it seriously, I will definitely choose this land." Nanjo Aoi smiled, "I will set off tomorrow, and I will ask Yuzi to help me take a second look at the power station, but I heard that the people from the alliance will come back tomorrow to expand the construction.
, there should be no problem.”
After some small talk, Nanjo Aoi and Joey left one after another, leaving Luther looking at the list in a daze.
Luther checked the information on these fruit trees on his mobile phone. It was similar to what Nanjo Aoi said. Most of the fruit trees were improved varieties after long-term cultivation.
Even fruit trees that are common in nature, such as grapefruit and green mule, have been intensively studied by universities in various places to explore the possibility of improvement.
Tree fruits that can replenish the state of elves and serve as food are being studied intensively by various universities.
In ancient times, production capacity was low, and many conflicts between humans and wild elves stemmed from survival resources, and food was the top priority.
In the past few decades of rapid development of elf science, scholars have conducted countless studies, selected species, and cultivated the tree fruits that elves mainly eat. Then, after a long period of time, they observed the differences with the original varieties, determined the route, and continued to improve.
After experiencing countless failures, the fruits on the list came into this world.
This is the case with the red ink pear tree on the list.
It is an extremely tenacious fruit tree that can survive in almost all climates except extreme drought and extreme cold. It is easy to survive and produces large amounts of fruit.
Although the disadvantage is that the pulp is not very delicious, and both elves and humans will find it a bit dry and astringent when eating it, but it is indeed food.
A prerequisite for the research and improvement of this kind of fruit tree is to plant it in areas where wild elves are active.
The red ink pear is a gift from humans to wild elves as an apology.
During the period of rapid development, humans will always come into contact and conflict with the living areas of wild elves. As human territory expands, the living areas of wild elves will also be compressed, and fierce internal battles will begin between them.
.
This is the focus that Rainbow University has been working hard to cultivate since 20 years ago, and it was not until four years ago that the results were achieved.
The first news that Luther searched for was that the academic alliance used special funds to widely plant red ink pears in areas that had been over-cultivated by humans, and called on all major regions to take action together.
This proposal has already received responses from major leagues.
Rainbow University has even released all information on cultivating red ink pears, calling on scholars from all major regions to continue to promote cultivation and determine the next improvement route.
Insightful people in this world have always known that humans and elves have a symbiotic relationship.
When humans harm wild elves due to development, they will quickly find ways to make up for it and work hard to improve the living conditions of wild elves.
It’s very clear to me, how come Theaster, who has been one of the top leaders in this world for a long time, and Zi Shi, can’t understand this truth even after living for so long?
What fun is there in enslaving elves?
Just for your own desire for control?
As expected, it is impossible to fathom the thoughts of mentally retarded people and lunatics.
Nanjo Aoi set out early in the morning. She gained Luther's trust. For the wild elves on the island, she shouldered a heavy responsibility.
This responsibility even made her work hard to overcome her weakness of communicating with others, and rushed to Haibin City, a coastal city, to understand the progress of fruit tree research in various regions without relying on anyone's help.
Luther is not idle either. It is impossible to fish now. He is a man with a debt of 40 million. If he does not make money to repay the money, he will never have a chance to fish in this life.
"Huh? Is there a place similar to an agency?" Sirona was dumbfounded, "What do you want to do?"
Sirona, who was eating cream cake, drinking soda, and lying lazily on the recliner, was stunned for a while before she realized that Luther was planning to take on a mission to make money.
She laughed so loudly that she almost spit out the cream cake in her mouth.
Is your question so funny?
"Sorry, sorry, I couldn't help myself." Although Sirona said this, she couldn't help but laugh a few more times.
After wiping her mouth clean, Sirona suppressed a smile and said, "You know, you are probably the one who has suffered the worst among the previous winners of the Lily of the Valley Conference."
"The winner of the Lily of the Valley Conference went to take on tasks posted by others in exchange for money to quench his thirst. Oops...wait a minute, I still want to laugh." Sirona felt her stomach hurt.
