Gods, I am the ancient Greek god of joy

Chapter 277 Nanzhao Kingdom Development Plan

The next morning, fish, shrimps and river crabs were delivered. After all, Nanzhao was close to the sea and these meats were the easiest to find. In the afternoon, Kailin also brought back a lot of edible meats from the outside world to the palace.

Processing meat is much more troublesome than processing plants. People eat grains but they also need to consume meat, so in order to cultivate trees that grow various plants, the nutrition of meat must also be increased.

Thus, a "horrific" dissection began. Zagreus' long hair wrapped around a sample like a tentacle, then pierced into it to continuously analyze the nutrients contained in its flesh and blood.

As his own fusion ability was activated, the substances in his flesh and blood were continuously injected into the seed. As the fusion ability continued to be activated, the genes of the seed and flesh and blood began to harmonize with each other.

After the first batch of flesh and blood seeds matured, he used his divine power to make the seeds germinate. As a result, after dozens of times of germination, when the trees grown from the seeds stabilized, he finally succeeded in cultivating seeds that could grow flesh and blood.

The next morning, a group of officials were summoned to the palace. The moment they entered the palace, they were shocked by the scene in front of them. The first thing they saw was a strange forest. The trees in this forest were colorful and dazzling. However, the most eye-catching thing was not the color, but the fact that these trees had no branches without exception. Instead, there were "leaves" in the shape of various lifelike animals growing on the bare trunks. The ministers were not sure whether they were leaves, because they looked more like fresh flesh and blood. When the breeze blew, everyone seemed to see the flesh pieces jumping.

At this moment, Zagreus slowly walked out of the woods, holding a thumb-sized piece of amethyst in his hand. Under the gaze of everyone, he walked to a big tree and gently placed the amethyst at the root of the tree.

Everyone watched this action curiously. They also wanted to know what would happen next. The moment the amethyst came into contact with the soil, a bright red rhizome suddenly emerged from the ground and quickly wrapped around the amethyst like a flexible tentacle, disappearing into the soil with it.

Then, the whole tree began to sway slightly, as if a huge amount of energy was injected into its interior. The trunk swelled in the blink of an eye, becoming thicker and more solid. Then, several leaves almost as big as a human suddenly stretched out from the swollen leaves, and the leaves also showed patterns of different animals.

Zagros clapped his hands, and suddenly dozens of chefs in white clothes walked out of the forest. They walked up to Zagros and bowed slightly. Then a few people stayed to make a fire, and the others walked to the trees, each of them took a piece of leaf with a knife, and began to cook.

Several other people walked to the tree trunks, used tools to dig out a piece from the trunks of various colors, and then put them into the pot.

After a while, everyone smelled the aroma of meat and various grains being cooked. Then a group of eunuchs in purple came out, each of them took a plate and took some food from the pot and gave a portion to everyone present.

Everyone looked at each other, not daring to eat, but Zagreus took the lead and took a bite of the food in his hand. Then he looked at the others, raised the plate in his hand and said, "Eat it, try it and see if it is different from what you usually eat."

At first, everyone was a little resistant, but when they saw Wang Shun and Kailin starting to eat, many people also started to eat. However, as soon as these things entered their mouths, an indescribable fragrance immediately occupied their taste buds.

Zagreus was the god of banquets and carnivals after all. These seeds were blessed with "deliciousness" and tasted many times better than what they had eaten before.

After watching everyone finish eating, Zagreus smiled and said, "My dear ministers, I know that you have been troubled by food problems in recent days. As the ruler of Nanzhao, I naturally have to help the people solve their problems.

All you ate before were the meat and grains grown on this tree. You have tasted the flavor, right? From now on, these fruits will continuously provide food for the people of Nanzhao, completely solving their food and clothing problems. In a few days, a large number of tree species will be sent to various places. You can make your own arrangements after you return!"

"Your Majesty, this tree is so magical. May I ask what its yield is? Will it be stolen by other countries?" At this time, the Minister of Agriculture stepped forward. As the person in charge of agricultural products of Nanzhao Kingdom, he naturally had to ask clearly.

Zagreus thought for a moment and replied, "This tree will be distributed as seeds in due course. The tree will grow in three days. You can bury the meat you want to grow at the root of the seeds in advance. As long as there is some tissue, blood will do. The seeds will take root on the first day, grow on the second day, and mature on the third day.

As for the yield, when each tree matures, the meat buried at the roots on the first day will grow into various leaves. The leaves can be cut as needed. The leaves can self-recover when exposed to sunlight every day. Each leaf can produce about 20 kilograms of meaty leaves every day.

The various colors of the trunk correspond to various grains, and the trunk can also recover on its own. The top of the trunk will produce different fruits according to the season. A tree can live for a year, and after the tree dies, seeds can be taken out from the roots for further planting.

You don't have to worry about the tree species being stolen by other countries. This tree needs a purple crystal as fertilizer every seven days from the seed stage. Purple crystal is a specialty of our Nanzhao country. You all know that the purple crystals in the nearby Longyuan and Shuiyue dynasties are inexhaustible. Purple crystals are the destiny of Nanzhao country. Only the people of Nanzhao can touch purple crystals!"

When the officials present first heard about the growth time of these trees, they all showed surprise. Such an output is enough to meet the domestic demand of Nanzhao, and there will even be enough for export to other countries.

"Are there any requirements for the growth environment of this tree?" the Minister of Agriculture continued to ask.

Zagreus smiled and said, "You just need to plant the seeds in the soil and water them occasionally. These seeds don't have high requirements for the environment and can grow in either sand or water."

After hearing this, the Grand Minister of Agriculture finally felt relieved. The ministers bowed and left the palace, and began to make intensive preparations.

Under the powerful influence of the "royal power", every word of Zagreus was regarded as the absolute truth, and no one would question or disobey his words. Therefore, when Zagreus mentioned this tree, the Minister of Agriculture immediately understood that it would become an important resource for the country and would bring huge benefits to the Nanzhao Kingdom.

Of course, even if this tree is harmful to the Nanzhao Kingdom and has no benefit, as long as Zagreus speaks, the ministers will execute it without hesitation, because in this country, Zagreus's orders are above everything else.
