I'm a Fair Person
The Old Man finally lost his temper.
Can rice grow inside a computer?
"Old Man, they're doing research..."
"Don't try to fool me. I don't know about research! You can research it a thousand times, a thousand times, and that's still just data. Do you dare say that the simulations and calculations in a computer are accurate? Can you calculate the weather for every single day?"
"Can it calculate the temperature for each day?"
"Rice was developed through calculations?!"
"I know computers are powerful, but they're not omnipotent, and besides, I don't like people like that!"
The Old Man was very depressed.
He doesn't dislike highly educated people, but he dislikes those who think they're something special just because they have a high level of education.
No matter how skilled you are, can you grow rice on a computer?
This is also the Old Man's "wise saying".
"With so many people, no one even noticed that the Spirit Rice had appeared. I think they not only don't go into the fields, but they don't even bother to come to the edge of the fields to take a look!"
"Why would I keep these people around?!"
"What?!"
"Spirit Rice?"
The two were startled.
They naturally knew that the Old Man had been talking about this ' Spirit Rice ' the most these days, but who would have thought that it would actually appear?
Has no one noticed yet?
No wonder the Old Man was so angry!
They exchanged a glance, both knowing they were in trouble!
But he could only bite the bullet and say, "Old Man, I know you're very angry, but... there are surveillance cameras around our experimental field, so they can see it from inside the lab."
"Yes, and their identities are all..."
"We wouldn't dare to put such things here on a normal person. Why don't you calm down first?"
"I'm not venting my anger!"
As a result, the Old Man became angrier and angrier as he spoke.
"I don't care who they are! Get them all out of here!"
"Anyone who disagrees, let their backers come find me. I want to see how they give me an explanation!"
Do you know the importance of Spirit Rice?
At this moment, the Old Man was spitting everywhere.
"This thing could even be called the future of humanity without exaggeration. If it could be mass-produced and grown on a large scale, it could completely replace our staple food!"
"Think about it."
"A wild grass can be transformed into a ' Spirit Herb,' and the fruit it bears can grant a person 'superpowers'!"
"Then what about Spirit Rice?"
"What about eating large quantities of Spirit Rice as a staple food? How beneficial would that be for people?"
"This achievement is no less significant than my initial breakthrough in hybrid rice!"
"But as it turns out, if I hadn't been watching over it every day, it probably would have withered and rotted away before anyone even noticed!"
"This..."
The two knew the seriousness of the situation, so they could only bite the bullet and say, "Won't we find out when we harvest the rice?"
"Still being stubborn?!"
"The growth and maturity period of Spirit Rice is at least one month shorter than that of ordinary rice!"
"By the time the rice is harvested? It will probably be rotten by then!"
The Old Man was even angrier.
"You two have been with me for so many years, and you're still going to cover for them?!"
"Okay, I'll ask you more questions."
"Even if Spirit Rice rots slowly, haven't you seen similar news reports? Once any Spirit Herb or Spirit Fruit matures, how many creatures will be eyeing it?!"
"Which animal, whether snake, insect, rat, ant, bird, or beast, doesn't fight over it?"
"Even if it had been discovered a day later, it might have been completely devoured by something!"
"You're telling me it's okay? Huh?!"
Now, the two of them had nothing more to say to each other.
This is really nothing new.
For example, that 'jujube tree' originally bore a lot of Spirit Dates, but on the day they ripened, countless wild animals rushed out to rob them, and even fought to the death in the process, leaving behind a ground full of animal carcasses!
If the owner hadn't discovered it quickly and snatched away more than a dozen kernels, there probably wouldn't have been a single pit left.
so...
There is no way to argue.
"Speechless now, huh?"
"Get all those people out of here!!!"
I don't want to see them!
"All right."
The two had no choice but to do as the Old Man said.
"Etc!"
The Old Man suddenly called them back.
"You've changed your mind?"
They were somewhat excited.
"Nonsense!"
"Tell them to leave quickly. Also, contact those of our retired comrades. They should all be young again by now, right? Tell them I need them! Call back anyone who wants to come back!"
"It was still the one that my own team used back in the day that was most comfortable to use..."
The Old Man shook his head and walked towards the glowing rice plant.
At the same time, he was muttering to himself.
"Forget about computers, you can simulate it a hundred times on a computer, I'll just plant a hundred control groups in the field..."
"Are your calculations more accurate, or are my experimental data more precise?"
"Well!"
The two exchanged a glance.
"What to do?"
"What else can we do? We'll just have to do what the Old Man says!"
"But those people are all rich kids who came here to get their resumes, we..."
"Who cares about anything else! The Old Man has spoken, and Old Man discovered the Spirit Rice. You don't know the value of Spirit Rice, do you?!"
"I don't know, but I can imagine it. Okay, let's get to work!"
evening.
Several staff members from the Resident Happiness Living Department arrived, carrying suitcases and looking travel-worn.
"You're looking for me?"
After opening the door, Lin Fan's gaze fell on the box. "You found what I wanted so quickly?"
"Forehead..."
"You've misunderstood, Mister Lin."
The person carrying the box solemnly placed it on the table after entering the room, entered the password, and then unlocked it with their fingerprint or iris scan.
Then he unlocked the handcuffs and slowly opened the box.
Seeing how serious they were, Lin Fan didn't use his Divine Sense to 'see through' them. After all... he could just cooperate a little, right?
What is it?
His eyes widened.
Finally, the box was opened.
Then...
The huge box, like those jewelry boxes, was filled with 'high-end' foam, except for a small self-sealing plastic bag in the very center.
in...
Six glowing rice stalks suddenly appeared before my eyes.
If you don't look closely, you can't see it at all!
Lin Fan was both amused and exasperated, but at the same time, he was extremely surprised. "Spirit Rice?!"
"You know?"
This surprised the staff of the Resident Happiness Living Department, but they quickly realized, "That's right, you were originally a cultivator..."
"This was sent to Mister Lin by the Magic Rice Ancestor Old Master. He said you must try it, and also said..."
"And you said..."
The group hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Just say it," Lin Fan said.
"I also asked you to write a 'review' of the meal."
Lin Fan: "..."
"Alright."
He had a "Holy shit!" in his mind, but he didn't know where to begin.
I'm currently preparing 'courseware' and thinking about what kind of papers the students should write after the first Cultivation Open Class.
Before I could even get started, the Old Man's "post-meal review" arrived first?
This is unbelievable!!!
However, the appearance of Spirit Rice still surprised Lin Fan.
This thing also exists in the Cultivation World.
However... it's considered a low-end product.
High-level cultivators disdain eating; they have long since Grain Avoidance grains. Even if they do eat, it is Spirit Fruit and Spiritual Wine.
Moreover, they also need to eat high-end Spirit Fruit.
However, this does not mean that Spirit Rice is inferior. In fact, as a high-yield crop, Spirit Rice has certain cultivation assistance effects before the Great Ascension Stage.
Because the yield of this thing is many times higher than that of those high-end Spirit Fruit.
Simply accumulating quantity can yield considerable benefits.
Those who have access to high-end goods naturally consume high-end goods. Someone like Qi Saintess, of course, doesn't need to eat Spirit Rice.
However, without high-end products, Spirit Rice is definitely a good product!
Of course, there are good and bad Spirit Rice, and Lin Fan had never eaten Spirit Rice before, but these in front of him...
Let's give it a try!
after all...
I also need to write a review of what I ate!
I feel terrible.
Take out six grains of rice, place them in your palm, and gently blow on them.
call...
The rice husks peeled off on their own, revealing the plump Spirit Rice inside. Under the glowing light, the Spirit Rice looked as warm and smooth as jade, even somewhat translucent, and its appearance alone showed its extraordinary quality.
"The rice is so beautiful."
Several guys in Zhongshan Suit were all blinking, completely absorbed in watching.
Lin Fan also thought the rice was quite beautiful; he had never seen such beautiful rice before. But... a problem arose.
Suddenly, this guy had a brain fart. "Hey guys, does anyone know where I can buy a rice cooker that can cook a few grains of rice?"
"Ah?!"
"This..."
Their minds were buzzing.
Who knows?
What kind of rice cooker can cook six grains of rice?
Isn't this for men?
One of them, quick-witted as ever, suggested, "Mister Lin, why don't you make some porridge?"
"..."
Lin Fan grinned. "Are you kidding me? This can be used to make porridge? It's too bland even to make rice soup, okay?"
"Luckily, I'm from the countryside, so this isn't difficult for me!"
Nowadays, even in rural areas, people mostly cook with rice cookers, let alone in the city...
If it were a typical city kid, especially a younger kid from a well-off family, they probably wouldn't know what to do.
But for Lin Fan...
No problem!
A rice cooker can't cook many grains of rice, but it can steam rice!
Simply put, first boil the rice in water, and when the Big Rice is half-cooked, take Big Rice out and put it in a steamer to steam!
Although six grains of rice is an exaggeration even for steaming, at least it can be cooked successfully without affecting the texture and taste.
Furthermore, rice cooked using this method will be more fragrant than rice cooked in an electric rice cooker.
After a series of operations.
Upon opening the pot lid and seeing the pitiful six glistening grains of rice in the steamer, the men in Zhongshan Suit couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
"Fragrant!"
It really smells delicious.
A faint aroma of rice wafts through the air, not particularly strong or special, but this subtle scent is quite appealing.
Lin Fan was also quite looking forward to it.
But looking at their expressions, he couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm a very fair person!"
Upon hearing this, the guys got excited.
There are five of us, Mister Lin makes six. Could it be that he...?
