"Your Excellency Tang Zhen, the trees at the City Lord's Mansion on the top of the mountain are already full of fruits. I wonder when we can pick them?"
A believer said to Tang Zhen, maybe because he was too excited, with a touch of excitement on his face that had not subsided.
The other party's gaffe is understandable, because the fruits that are spread all over the mountains and plains have solved Tianxu City's urgent needs.
"Oh, I wonder how the fruit tastes?"
As soon as Tang Zhen finished his work, he heard the good news and couldn't help but have a faint smile on his face.
If the special plant you cultivated by yourself does not bear fruit, it cannot be said to be a success, but since the fruit has matured, there is basically no problem.
Even if the fruit is poisonous, Tang Zhen can refine it and turn it into harmless and delicious food.
Hearing Tang Zhen's question, the believer was stunned for a moment, and then replied in a panic tone: "I came here in a hurry to report the news, but I didn't taste it. Why don't you go back now?"
"It doesn't have to be so troublesome. I can just go there in person. Is Mr. Luo Fei willing to go with you?"
As Tang Zhen spoke, he turned to look at Luo Fei, who was standing not far away, and made an invitation gesture.
Luo Fei smiled and slowly came to Tang Zhen's side, and the two of them walked towards the top of the mountain at the same time.
The residents of Tianxu City passing by along the way kept saluting and saying hello to the two people, their faces full of reverence.
The Loucheng monks used their powerful strength to completely conquer the residents of Tianxu City, especially Tang Zhen himself, who was worshiped as a god by these residents.
As for other Loucheng monks, they always have a slight sense of distance from the residents, and they are far inferior to Tang Zhen in this regard.
"I can see that these aboriginal people really appreciate and admire you, and they are definitely not afraid of your power.
This is actually as it should be, if it weren’t for you, these residents would have been dead to death by now!”
Looking at the residents of Tianxu City walking around, Luo Fei said with a slightly emotional tone.
She has been to many planes over the years and has definitely gained a lot of experience, but it is rare that she has seen native people respect the Loucheng monks so much.
She had known Tang Zhen for more than a day or two, and she could feel that Tang Zhen was different from other Loucheng monks. His attitude towards the aborigines seemed to be far friendlier than other Loucheng monks.
This may be related to Tang Zhen's origin. According to Luo Fei's understanding, Tang Zhen came from an ordinary plane and had a proper grassroots background.
Of course, this does not mean that Tang Zhen is soft-hearted. When thunderous measures are needed, Tang Zhen is actually more ruthless than others.
"I am actually just providing appropriate guidance to help the residents of Tianxu City survive as much as possible. As for whether they can succeed in the end, it depends on their personal efforts.
Don’t underestimate these aboriginal people. If it weren’t for them, Tianxu City would not be able to defend itself, and it would probably have become the nest of monsters long ago.”
Luo Fei nodded, although she wanted to ask Tang Zhen again why he was so persistent in defending Tianxu City?
For the Loucheng monks, the city is equivalent to a stable logistics base, which can make movement more convenient.
However, they will also expend more energy and suffer more attacks. Regardless of whether they are monks or monsters, they will regard them as the primary target of attack.
For example, if a monster sieges a city, although it has been successfully defeated twice, as long as it fails once, all previous efforts will be in vain.
However, Tang Zhen has always been prudent in doing things. Since he is so persistent, he must have a reason.
The two of them walked and talked, and it didn't take long before they arrived at the city lord's palace.
At this time, looking at the woods in the City Lord's Mansion, they were already covered with bright red fruits, each one as big as a fist.
Representatives of the residents of Tianxu City gathered under the tree. They stared at the fruit tree intently, with a hint of passion in their eyes.
This fruit is so miraculous that it matures in just a few days, and its growth rate is astonishingly fast.
The most important point is that if this speed is maintained, Tianxu City will no longer need to worry about food.
The more you understand the meaning of having enough food, the more excited you will naturally be.
Seeing Tang Zhen and Luo Fei approaching, a group of resident representatives quickly came forward to greet them, with unconcealable joy on their faces.
"Your Excellency Tang Zhen, do you think the fruit on this tree is ripe? Can it be picked?"
Although it was possible to pick off the fruit with just one hand, no one in Tianxu City dared to do so. Instead, they patiently waited for Tang Zhen's instructions.
If Tang Zhen said that these fruits were inedible, then the residents of Tianxu City would immediately take action and throw all these fruits into the lake.
"Don't worry, I'll take a look first and then talk."
While Tang Zhen was speaking, he reached out to the fruit tree above his head, and immediately a red fruit fell into his hand.
The fruit is oval in shape, feels heavy to the touch, and exudes a light aroma.
The fruit matured in a short period of time, and the taste is probably not much better.
But it doesn't matter, as long as it fills your stomach, it doesn't need to be too sweet at all.
Under the gaze of everyone, Tang Zhen broke the fruit into two pieces. As the juice splashed, there was a crisp sound.
It felt like breaking open a piece of raw sweet potato to Tang Zhen.
After taking a bite, it turns out that it is somewhat similar to sweet potatoes, but tastes better.
Thinking of this, Tang Zhen heated half of the fruit in his hand, and soon a rich fragrance wafted out.
After smelling this smell, the surrounding residents' representatives widened their eyes, and the anticipation in their eyes became even stronger.
"It smells so good. I didn't expect this fruit to taste so delicious after being heated!"
"Thank you, Mr. Tang Zhen, for creating such magical food and solving the biggest crisis in Tianxu City!"
"Yes, yes, Your Excellency Tang Zhen is indispensable. He is simply the reborn parent of hundreds of thousands of residents in Tianxu City!"
The leading figures in Tianxu City these days became more and more excited as they talked, and even shed tears of gratitude, which was a bit exaggerated.
They were indeed excited. Of course, the main reason was that they wanted to take the opportunity to compliment Tang Zhen.
A flash of sarcasm flashed in Luo Fei's eyes. These guys don't go to the battlefield when fighting, but they are just showing off here. It really makes people feel a little disgusting.
However, in order to maintain the stability of Tianxu City, the role of these resident representatives is indispensable, which is the main reason why Tang Zhen kept them.
"Please taste the taste of this fruit, and then we will discuss how to pick and store it."
Tang Zhen broke off a piece of the fruit and put it in his mouth, and handed the rest to the resident representative. The other party quickly took it and ate it, all showing expressions of admiration.
"It's delicious. If this fruit can be used as food, the people of Tianxu City will be really lucky!"
After another round of praise, everyone began to discuss how to organize manual picking and how to store it.
The growth cycle of this fruit is extremely short, and the yield is very high, but if you eat it from morning to night, no one will be able to bear it.
What's more, in the lakes outside the city, there are fruits grown by aquatic plants, which can also be used as food.
How to store it properly so that it will not be wasted is an issue that residents of Tianxu City must consider.
Tang Zhen's suggestion was to slice these fruits and dry them, or directly pound and purify them to make something similar to flour.
Of course, he was just giving a suggestion. How to operate next is something that the residents of Tianxu City have to consider.
