Expanding the herbal field wasnt anything difficult. In fact, Huang Juyun had been anticipating it.

Although he didnt know exactly what ability Zhang Che had that allowed him to find large amounts of spiritual herbs in the beast world every time, he knew the current herbal field would be out of space soon.

As such, some time earlier, Huang Juyun had already ordered his men to head deep into the beast world where spiritual herbs grew in a higher concentration and dig out large amounts of beast world soil, transporting it back.

Huang Juyun had planned to expand the herbal field some time in the future. Unexpectedly, Zhang Che had harvested so many spiritual herbs on this trip.

Although Huang Juyun wasnt around, there was no need to trouble him over trifles like expanding the herbal field. Zhang Che gave the instruction, and as the person in charge of the research institutes order, the relevant staff operated the machinery and shoveled away a piece of the land next to the original herbal field, then covered it back up with soil from the beast world they had brought in.

Afterwards, they only needed to expand the greenhouse to cover the new herbal field as well, and Zhang Che could transplant the spiritual herbs he had brought back.

With the spiritual jade, it was simply too easy to grow the spiritual herbs. There was no need to consider how harsh the environment they were growing in was.

As for the batch of spiritual herbs Zhang Che brought back this time, they only needed to be planted above the spiritual jade temporarily. Even if it was only for a few days, there wouldnt be any problems afterwards.

After offloading the spiritual herbs, Zhang Che was about to leave when the person in charge of the herbal research institute suddenly thought of a matter and reported to him, Right, Zhang-shao, we recruited enough people to employ the spiritual bees a few days ago. The spiritual bees have gathered some nectar and produced some spiritual honey. Do you want to go take a look at it?

Theyre already producing spiritual honey? Zhang Che was overjoyed at hearing the news. He didnt expect the herbal research institute to be so fast at their work. It had only been a few days, and the relevant staff had already been recruited!

It seemed like his father-in-laws influence in the military was really something!

Speaking of this matter, the Huang family recruiting those disabled mid-tier beastmasters was considered as helping the military settle them down. Naturally they would be able to recruit the men they needed very quickly.

Those disabled mid-tier beastmasters had basically lost their ability to fight. Although they had the militarys compensation and their own savings to tide them over the rest of their lives, and their livelihood shouldnt be a problem, who would reject getting a second chance to contribute to their country, in addition to earning a decent wage?

So, this matter had gone very smoothly from beginning to end, and as a result, the first batch of spiritual honey was produced quickly.

Quick, bring me over to have a look!

-This is spiritual honey produced by using only nectar from spiritual herbs! Its effects are sure to be far better than the batch of spiritual honey I obtained back then, right?-Zhang Che grew incredibly excited.

If anything, the original spiritual honey was already greatly beneficial to humans. Now that it was elevated a few levels, perhaps it could even be used to help high-tier beastmasters cultivate?

If that turned out to be true, putting aside the importance of using the spiritual honey to concoct medicinal pills, it would make a fortune just being sold to those powerful high-tier beastmasters!

Of course, the prerequisite was that the amount of spiritual honey produced here was sufficient

Please come with me, Zhang-shao, the person in charge extended his arm respectfully, bringing Zhang Che towards the research institutes warehouse. After opening three guarded doors, he finally retrieved a fist-sized jade bottle from the cold storage carefully.

Ugh, the spiritual honey is inside? Zhang Ches expression stiffened a little when he saw the fist-sized jade bottle.

Although he had already expected the amount of spiritual honey wouldnt be much, he totally didnt think it would be THIS little.

With just this little bit of spiritual honey, even the research institute wouldnt have enough to produce medicinal pills from them, let alone selling the honey to earn some purple crystal points.

Seeing the expression on Zhang Ches face, the person in charge immediately explained, Zhang-shao, our herbal field is a little short on spiritual herbs, not to mention its winter now. Many spiritual herbs didnt bloom, so the amount of spiritual honey produced is a little low. When spring arrives next year, and Zhang-shao had gathered more spiritual herbs, the production of spiritual honey will surely rise by at least a level.

Zhang Che didnt speak a word. After receiving the jade bottle from the person in charge, he uncorked the bottle with a pop. A faint fragrance containing extremely thick spiritual force wafted out from the jade bottle.

Zhang Che took a light whiff, taking in the fragrance filled with spiritual force, immediately feeling his spirits rise.

Good stuff! Zhang Ches eyes shone.

As expected of spiritual honey produced using nectar from spiritual herbs. The quality of this bottle of spiritual honey was more than a level higher than the batch he had brought back from the beast world.

Seeing the enchanted look on Zhang Ches face, the person in charge hurriedly explained the quality of the honey to him. Zhang-shao, weve already done the relevant tests. The medical efficacy and spiritual force contained in this new spiritual honey is more than six times higher than that you brought back from the beast world! This was under the circumstances of the spiritual herbs in the herbal field not blooming. When there are more spiritual herbs in the future, the quality of the spiritual honey produced by those bees will be even higher!

Zhang Che couldnt help but nod in admiration. Afterwards, he sealed the jade bottle and said, Youve worked hard. Oh, right, how long did it take to produce this bottle of spiritual honey?

This question was a very important one. If the quantity of the spiritual honey produced couldnt be raised, they wouldnt be able to demand too high of a value. After all, even if the spiritual honey was worth more than ten times its weight in purple-gold crystal, it wouldnt be worth much if the production quantity was too little.

This was produced in three days. Other than a little of it was used for tests, the remaining amount is at about a hundred and sixty grams.

Zhang Che nodded, saying, In other words, under the current circumstances, about sixty grams of honey is produced a day?

Thats right, Zhang-shao, but after the spiritual herbs Zhang-shao brought back are transplanted and some of them have bloomed, the production quantity should increase by ten grams or so.

Zhang Che nodded slightly again, not saying a word. Even if the production quantity was increased by about ten grams a day, the amount wasnt much.

Less than a hundred grams a day was less than a thousand purple crystal points. It truly didnt have much value.

In truth, Zhang Che was earning money too easily, which is why he felt earning a thousand purple crystal points a day wasnt much.

To put it in perspective, if it was converted into dollars, that was equivalent to more than ten million dollars a day! Not only that, this was when the production amount was at its lowest. When the weather turned warm, and the Huang family obtained more spiritual herbs via other channels and transplanted them to the herbal field, the production amount of spiritual honey would only increase further and further. In the future, producing a thousand grams a day wouldnt be too difficult!

According to the value of spiritual honey being ten times of purple-gold crystals, a thousand grams meant ten thousand purple crystal points. When converted to dollars, that was a hundred million!

In a year, that would be thirty-six billion dollars at the very least!

Of course, using dollars to measure the worth of spiritual honey was somewhat inappropriate. After all, it could be considered a strategic resource. The Huang family could totally use this batch of spiritual honey and refine better medicinal pills, earning higher profits off them, or exchanging them for greater benefits.

-It looks like I have to continue working hard to gather more spiritual herbs!-

Zhang Che wasnt able to calm down even after leaving the herbal research institute.

This kind of high-grade spiritual honey was truly too rare. No matter if it was used for cultivation by high-tier beastmasters, or exchanged for benefits with other factions, it was something incredibly valuable.

However, the frisky monkey had just advanced by two star tiers. Putting aside the matter of the range of his spiritual senses increasing, the cooldown time of his skill had reduced from a full day to twelve hours.

That meant that the area Zhang Che could search had increased by more than three times!

Furthermore, the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragons flight speed had reached about Mach 2. Wanting to find more spiritual herbs wouldnt be anything too difficult for him!
