Ye Xiaochen narrowed his eyes, and with a thought, he communicated with the magic power crystal in his dantian.
The crystal cracked, and traces of magic power were released.
At the same time, the Eye of the Heavenly Dao appeared in his mind.
In an instant, the Plant Appraisal Technique was activated.
A white light shot out and landed on the senzu beans. Immediately, the appraisal information of each senzu bean appeared.
Ye Xiaochen was dumbfounded, because these two senzu beans had reached the tenth round.
In other words, they were only one step away from reaching low-grade.
Originally, under normal circumstances, nine rounds should be normal.
However, all the Senda plants had been upgraded to level two, which greatly increased the fertility of Senda plants.
In addition, the Xianquan water had also been upgraded to level two because of Xianquan, and the immortal spiritual power had become richer.
In addition, Ye Xiaochen cultivated the Shennong Art. After condensing magic power, he often used the Hastening Technique to hasten the growth of the immortal plants, and also played the flute of the Plant Spirit for the immortal plants to listen.
All these factors combined allowed these two senzu beans to reach the tenth round.
Just one more step and they would become low-grade immortal plants.
Of course, Ye Xiaochen knew that this small step was difficult to cross.
This was a real hurdle.
Many immortal plant owners were stuck at this step.
However, Ye Xiaochen was confident that this would not be difficult for him.
Because he was Shennong.
The existence of Shennong's talent meant that he was destined to be different from ordinary immortal plant owners.
In addition to reaching the tenth round, Ye Xiaochen also found that the additional divinity and psychic characteristics of the two senzu beans were much higher than the first generation senzu beans.
After estimation, there were more than 8,700 senzu beans (yellow) and 8,100 senzu beans (red).
He did not plan to sell the senzu beans for the time being, and was going to store them first.
The immortal grass that he harvested last time was still stored in the warehouse.
He was waiting for the other immortal plants to mature.
According to his estimation, the other immortal wheat, fifty senzu beans (yellow), and two kinds of radishes would mature in a week at most.
After these three immortal plants matured, he was going to hold a grand auction.
This way, the variety of immortal plants for auction would become richer.
As for Senda, he was preparing to plant the second generation of Senda Beans.
Immediately, he put away all the Senzu Beans.
"Hmm, let's take a look at your personal information first."
Ye Xiaochen summoned the Shen Nung system and checked her own information.
Character: Ye Xiaochen.
Profession: Shennong (Level 2)
Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Stage (Entry)
Innate Skills: Psychic + 1, Production + 1, Quality + 1, Speed + 1, Disease Resistance + 1, Insect Resistance + 1, Mutation + 1, Strengthening + 1, Poison Resistance + 1, Divinity + 1.
Immortal elemental energy: 2851 immortal elemental energy, 67 spiritual elemental energy.
Experience points: 1261000
Ever since the system had been upgraded, the experience points had changed. If one wanted to reach level 3, they would need to accumulate 1000 experience points.
Since the Quest Bar had appeared in the Level Two System, he believed that there would be even greater changes in the Level Three System.
This was not an easy task!
With the current efficiency, it would be difficult to upgrade it without a few years.
However, he wasn't in a hurry.
Rice should be eaten mouthful by mouthful, and roads should be taken step by step.
He had only completed two of the System's Quests so far.
In addition, the Main Quest that was in the process of being created had not been displayed yet. He didn't know what kind of Main Quest it would be.
He was looking forward to it.
The next morning.
Ye Xiaochen went to the Yangzhou City Government Building. Here, he met the task force sent by the Provincial Government.
The rank of this task force wasn't low. The leader was a member of the Provincial Party Committee, and the Executive Deputy Governor was Wei Zixuan. The other members were at least at the level of a bureau chief.
The leader of Yangzhou City, Zeng Hongye, and the mayor were also present.
Even the Secretary of Jing County, Liu Xianjin, came personally.
The main purpose of this meeting was to discuss the location of the branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Although the Provincial Government hoped that the research institute would be located in Sha City.
However, Ye Xiaochen was from Yangzhou City.
Moreover, Yangzhou City was also a part of the Southern Province.
Naturally, the provincial government could not intervene in the way of administrative orders. They could only persuade Ye Xiaochen in terms of the overall situation, hoping that he could choose Sha City.
Unfortunately, Yangzhou City was determined not to agree.
They wouldn't give in to this kind of conflict of interest.
Even if the two sides weren't on the same level.
The problem was that Yangzhou City had the absolute advantage!
Moreover, Ye Xiaochen was leaning towards Yangzhou City.
Although Liu Xianjin from Jing County had spoken during this time, no one took him seriously.
Liu Xianjin kept looking at Ye Xiaochen, but Ye Xiaochen pretended not to see it.
Long before this, the county had contacted Ye Xiaochen, hoping that he would consider the county.
Ye Xiaochen was ambiguous and didn't give an answer. After all, he was a key figure now and no one dared to offend him.
When the research institute was completed, his status would be further elevated.
So what if he ignored Liu Xianjin? Would he dare to cause trouble for him?
Once he became the person in charge of the research institute, his rank wouldn't be lower than his.
Although the Chinese Academy of Sciences was a public institution and only had technical ranks, the director of the research institute was at least at the level of a bureau chief.
Alright, even if he wasn't at the level of a bureau chief, he could at least be at the level of a division chief.
At the end of the day, Ye Xiaochen was also a person who held grudges. Last time, Liu Xianjin had secretly caused trouble for the Immortal Spring Restaurant. He still remembered it in his heart.
When Liu Xianjin saw this, he sighed in his heart. He knew that he didn't stand a chance in Jing County.
Such a great opportunity had actually slipped away from right under their noses just like that.
He regretted it so much!
He regretted using underhanded means to deal with Xianquan Restaurant.
Otherwise, he could have used his emotions and reason to persuade them. It would have been possible for him to succeed.
Unfortunately, there was no medicine for regret in this world.
"Dear leaders, let me express my opinion. Actually, my requirements for the job are very simple. I can sleep until I wake up naturally and I don't have to rush to work. No one will bother me when I go to work. I can go whenever I want and rest whenever I want. It's also close to home and I can eat warm meals cooked by my family when I get home. That's all I need."
Ye Xiaochen coughed and voiced out his thoughts. This request is simple enough, right?
Everyone immediately fell silent.
Everyone looked at Ye Xiaochen strangely.
They were all cursing in their hearts. "Damn, if there was such a good job in the world, we would definitely fight for it!"
The people in the task force looked at each other helplessly. They knew that Ye Xiaochen's attitude was already very clear.
Even if they tried to persuade him, it would not work.
Ye Xiaochen's status was too special. He was so capable that there was no way to replace him.
Without Ye Xiaochen, the research institute would not exist.
It could be said that Ye Xiaochen had made an unprecedented contribution to Southern Province's scientific research!
Not only could they not use their power to oppress him, but they also had to protect him carefully.
The task force left.
With regards to the location of the research institute, the dust had settled.
Yang City's leaders finally heaved a sigh of relief. Immediately after, they were deeply excited.
The research institute had finally settled in Yang City.
Following this, they would put all their efforts into the construction of the research institute.
The local government would have to be responsible for the land, construction, funding, personnel, and so on.
Although it was a technical cooperation, the Chinese Academy of Sciences would only provide the technology and researchers.
As for the money, they would not provide a single cent. Even the salaries of the researchers would have to be allocated by the local government.
At the end of the day, this was also a major strategy for the Chinese Academy of Sciences' development and expansion. After all, there was a limit to the amount of money allocated by the central government.
More importantly, they would have to increase their income and reduce their expenditure.
Although the Chinese Academy of Sciences was a comprehensive research institute, it had a large number of companies and partners directly under its control. They provided a large amount of funding and continuously supported the research operations of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
After the Yang City Research Institute for Plant Consciousness was established, the Chinese Academy of Sciences would have all kinds of rights such as patents and other rights once the research results were produced.
If other companies wanted to use the technology, they would have to pay a high fee for the patents and subsequent dividends.
As the core of the technology, Ye Xiaochen would naturally receive a very high percentage of the dividends.
The specific percentage of the dividends would depend on how the contract was drawn up.
Generally speaking, the higher the level of the technology, the higher the percentage.
For example, an academician would receive the highest percentage of the dividends.
Because of this, once an academician reached the academician level, as long as there were any practical technological results, they would definitely not lack money. All of them were rich, and there was no lack of billionaires.
