Free Web NovelChapter 499: Chapter 278: Fox Mountain’s Self-Developed Chip, Ghost Eye One_2
Every ten meters or so, there’s a gardener standing there, busy working.
Why do such advanced herb fields still need so many gardeners?
Is it really efficient?
Just as he was wondering, a middle-aged man with a big belly approached with a group of gardeners.
"Expert Mo, you’re here?
"Hurry and teach us the usage of Medicine No. 73, we’ve been waiting for a long time!
"Everyone received Medicine No. 73 this morning and is waiting to learn."
Mo Lanyou glanced at Bai Mo, lifted his chin with a smug smile, took the small bucket and brush from the middle-aged man’s hand, and began the demonstration.
"This Medicine No. 73 is quite special.
"It is a medicine developed specifically for West Pillar Grass. freёwebnoѵel.com
"If you see yellow silk turbidity on the edges of the West Pillar Grass’s leaves, you need to apply this medicine on it."
He squatted down, looked at the gardeners while gesturing, and started demonstrating the procedure.
Bai Mo borrowed a remote control from one of the gardeners, carefully observed it for a while.
Then he aimed it at a sensor and gently pressed, the remote showed the data.
[Soil Total Potassium Concentration: 0.56223%]
"This sensor, its precision is pretty high..."
The equipment developed by the committee has a common trait... they basically ignore cost and only pursue the highest performance!
To increase measurement precision, the cost might rise exponentially, but the committee doesn’t care.
For instance, this soil total potassium sensor, although the principles are unknown, the R&D and production costs are likely not cheap!
Little Crescent squatted on the master’s shoulder, looked at the remote, eyes wide open.
Even though it couldn’t understand... it felt impressive somehow!
Take this back to Fox Mountain, can it achieve industrial upgrading?
The master was stunned for a moment, fiddled with the remote, thoughtfully shook his head.
"No, it won’t work.
"This system can monitor a total of twenty-three data points, some are accurate to five decimal places, some even to seven decimal places.
"But if you include Immortal Grass cultivation into their evaluation system...
"The types of data that can be detected are severely insufficient.
"The precision is... too low."
He raised his head, looked at Mo Lanyou who was earnestly explaining, saw a group of attentive gardeners... with these technological facilities, backed by top-notch biochemical laboratories, and this army of gardeners as if at no cost, they could indeed cultivate West Pillar Grass!
But this approach is meaningless for Fox Mountain.
Fox Mountain doesn’t even need all this mess... the two hundred acres of West Pillar Grass at Fox Mountain require less than ten Fox disciples.
Mo Lanyou seemed to encounter some troubles in his lecture, sweat appeared on his forehead, and his voice instinctively raised.
"This medicinal decoction needs to be applied to the stems.
"The method of application is crucial, listen carefully everyone.
"Firstly, we divide the stems evenly into regions one, two, and three!
"Region one is not applied with medicine, region two with one layer, and region three with two layers!
"Uh... don’t frown, it’s not about making it difficult, that’s just how Immortal Grass is!
"The specific operation is a bit complicated, you can use a marker to draw on the stems, as a sample..."
Bai Mo and Little Crescent nearby both frowned.
Fox Mountain also cultivates West Pillar Grass, but he didn’t recall any procedure being this complex?
Bai Mo leaned forward, looked at the West Pillar Grass, looked at the crouching Mo Lanyou, looked at the medicinal decoction in his small bucket, his Divine Sense spread out, observed for a moment, and immediately understood why the medicinal decoction was so troublesome. This decoction formula had issues, direct watering would burn the roots, it must be applied in gradients!
Or to put it bluntly, the decoction formula... was too stupid!
The gardeners sighed and clicked their tongues.
"This really is a technical skill."
"We need to practice for a while before we can master it."
"Practicing for two or three days should be enough to get the hang of it."
"Will it delay the development of West Pillar Grass?"
Two or three days?
That would certainly delay it!
Mo Lanyou frowned, about to speak again... when he saw Bai Mo coming over, squatting next to him, taking the brush from his hand.
"Let me try."
Then he saw Bai Mo holding the brush, dipping it in the medicinal decoction, brushing the stem of the West Pillar Grass from top to bottom in a clockwise rough spiral line, and then counterclockwise in a rough spiral line.
Everyone stood there in shock.
The places covered by a single spiral line had one layer of liquid.
The places where the two spiral lines crossed had two layers of liquid.
The places where neither spiral line covered had no liquid.
On the surface of the West Pillar Grass, it was perfectly divided into three rhomboid areas, meeting all of Mo Lanyou’s requirements.
Three areas, three coatings, done!
The gardeners stared, watched for a long while, and then all burst into smiles and started applauding!
"Hahaha, an expert is truly an expert!"
"This must be Expert Bai Mo, his experience is apparent!"
"Learnt a lot, learnt a lot!"
Mo Lanyou gave an awkward smile.
Just a moment ago, he was claiming he had more experience in cultivation than Bai Mo, only to be proven wrong so quickly!
But on second thought, something didn’t feel right.
This wasn’t an issue of cultivation experience, it seemed more like a pure suppression of intelligence?
With this thought, he suddenly felt better and laughed out loud again.
... Being outshone by Bai Mo’s intelligence isn’t embarrassing, it’s only natural.
...
The wind howled fiercely, and the night deepened.
Fox Mountain concluded its day of work, and the apprentices were resting in the dorms.
A group of foxes gathered in a circle, listening to Little Crescent recount the findings from the visit to the real world.
Hearing about sprinkler nozzles, underground sensors, and remote controls with screens... the foxes’ eyes lit up!
"Eek eek eek!"
"Howl howl howl!"
Hearing their master say that the sensor types were too few, the precision too low, not practical for major uses, and needing a whole bunch of gardeners... the foxes’ ears drooped again.
"Howl howl howl?"
Isn’t that even worse than Fox Mountain?
They looked at each other and then looked up at their master.
There they saw their master sitting in the center of the hall, at the bedside, fiddling with a Black Ghost Eye.
The Black Ghost Eye was still closed, but the master had attached one mycelium after another, with branches spreading out, looking like a mop head growing from the Black Ghost Eye.
What was the master doing?
Bai Mo sat by the bed, carefully operating each strand of mycelium, using Pill Fire to weld them to the Black Ghost Eye, reconnecting their nerves, and making slight adjustments.
This was an entirely new plant-machine designed from inspiration he gathered after his visit to the real world.
This little Black Ghost Eye, adorned with a bunch of mycelia, indeed looked pretty unattractive... but it didn’t matter, Bai Mo cared only about functionality, not appearances.
Having welded the last strand of mycelium, made some adjustments, and conducted a check, Bai Mo’s face broke into a bright smile.
He raised his head and announced loudly.
"Everyone, come over; our first generation self-developed chip at Fox Mountain, Ghost Eye One, has been successfully developed!"
Oh?
A self-developed chip? freёwebnovel.com
What’s that?
The foxes all rushed over, clustering around their master, layer upon layer, each pair of dark red eyes gazing at the Ghost Eye One.
"Ghost Eye One’s gene-editing, nutrient-stealing, infinitely expanding characteristics... I have removed the related organs.
"Now, Ghost Eye One has no more pollution or aggression, merely possesses the ability for information processing and strong data transmission capabilities. It’s no longer a Calamity Grass, but a super chip!"
The foxes rolled their eyes around, and it didn’t take long for them to understand, tilting their chubby heads and grinning slyly... the Black Ghost Eye had its key organs removed by our master and became detached from desires!
Bai Mo continued with the introduction.
"The mycelia extending from Ghost Eye One can penetrate into the medicinal soil, detecting various metrics from the soil, substituting us in observing and monitoring the medicinal fields. With this, everyone will not need to guard the fields around the clock anymore!"
The foxes’ eyes became perfectly round!
Monitoring the medicinal fields is a very complicated task, sometimes requiring observation of leaf color, sometimes the shape of tree scars, sometimes checking if tree roots are burrowing down or curling up... Can this thing replace the foxes keeping watch?
Bai Mo laughed, saying.
"Rest assured regarding its capabilities.
"Moreover, I have already figured out the cultivation technique for Ghost Eye One.
"I hereby announce that Fox Mountain’s first-generation chip Ghost Eye One will start mass production tomorrow, and begin implementation the day after.
"Fox Mountain’s brand new Immortal Grass industry will complete infrastructure improvements in five days, officially start production in seven days, and fully upgrade in ten days!
"According to my preliminary estimates, maintaining the current work intensity, Fox Mountain’s production capacity will increase daily, doubling within twenty days!"
The foxes squinted their eyes, contemplating what their master just said.
So the master’s point is... they don’t need to work overtime, don’t need to cut down orchards, yet can increase production capacity and feed the Purple Earth Dragon?
They all burst into smiles.
"Eek eek eek!"
"Howl howl howl!"
"Eek eek eek!"
They raised their paws, hopping around and starting to cheer!
