After distributing the seeds, Lu Li ordered Onix to use the 'Cultivate' skill.
With one use of 'Cultivate', the surrounding land instantly churned, and a rich grass-type energy mixed with life energy made the land appear vibrant.
Normally, after the 'Cultivate' skill is activated, the land would only have grass-type energy, but this special version of 'Cultivate' had some extra life energy, which is the essence of soil-nourishing techniques.
Next, Ike led his subordinates to start sowing the seeds.
Wangwang Valley is different from fruit trees; they don't need careful tending. With the blessing of 'Cultivate', Ike and the others only needed to sow the seeds and cover them with soil.
The only thing to pay attention to was the spacing between the seeds.
Onix continuously cultivated six plots of land, but Ike and the others' sowing speed couldn't keep up with Onix's skill activation speed.
In the end, Lu Li couldn't stand it anymore and directly used his psychic power to sow the seeds, completely filling all six plots of land.
"A psychic?"
Ike looked up at Lu Li in surprise.
He didn't expect Lu Li to be a psychic as well, but Ike wasn't flustered, as he had seen psychics before.
After finishing the sowing, Lu Li breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
Wangwang Valley matures in three months. Lu Li plans to first produce and sell locally. Humans who consume Wangwang Valley for a long time will become healthier, an effect similar to Pokémon eating energy blocks.
Then, he called Ike over and instructed, "Next, you need to pay attention to watering and weeding. If I have time, I'll prepare some agricultural books for you. Remember to teach them to the others.
Let's set the monthly salary for each of your younger siblings at 3,000 yuan."
He didn't need to carefully manage the farm. With the blessing of 'Cultivate', as long as Ike and the others didn't mess around and strictly followed the knowledge in the books, the farm wouldn't have any problems in the short term.
Ike nodded.
Coming from the slums, he was well aware of the importance of knowledge.
Moreover, if he could teach this knowledge to his younger siblings, they would learn another skill for the future, so they wouldn't have to worry about Lu Li abandoning them.
Having witnessed the darkness of the world early on, Ike knew too well the fate of people without value.
Lu Li hadn't originally planned to start the farm so early, but considering that he would soon have to leave to participate in the regional competition, and Onix had just learned 'Cultivate'.
Lu Li simply started the plan ahead of schedule. These six plots of farmland were considered experimental fields.
Whether there was a harvest was secondary. Lu Li mainly hoped to accumulate experience through these six plots of farmland.
After saying goodbye to Ike, Lu Li left with Onix.
A slightly lame child looked at Lu Li's departing figure with longing: "He's so amazing. That Pokémon solved such a large area of farmland in just a few minutes."
"Yeah! With such a big body, I think I'd be turned into mincemeat if he just pressed down on me," a child next to him nodded in agreement.
"I really hope I can become a trainer one day and have a Pokémon like that," another little girl said enviously.
"You will! I promise, we will all have a bright future," Ike gently stroked the girl's little head.
With Lu Li, this promising boss, it wouldn't be difficult for them to become trainers. The difficulty lies in becoming powerful trainers.
"I'll try to find time to teach you some knowledge in the future. You have to study hard, and then..."
Ike paused here, then looked at the four little ones with utmost seriousness and said: "From now on, we will follow that new boss. Even if you become trainers in the future, you can't go out to travel. Do you really want to follow the new boss with me?"
"We'll do whatever Brother Ike does, and traveling... we don't really want to go out to travel," the little girl said.
The three little boys next to her all nodded.
If they had a choice, who would be willing to go out and risk their lives for an uncertain future?
What Ike didn't know was that those teenagers who were willing to go out and travel left Qingyun City mostly in the hope that they could be independent and not be a burden to Ike.
And... to fight for a future, so that they could come back and help the younger siblings of the Wildfire Gang.
Unfortunately, this world is not a fairy tale world, nor is it a children's anime world.
Those teenagers who left with beautiful expectations and missions never returned.
Ike probably knew this too, but he had been avoiding it.
Lu Li also knew this, so he gave these children a little salary.
For a trainer and breeder of his level, 3,000 yuan was really not much.
But for the group of children in the Wildfire Gang, 3,000 yuan was a dream they had never dared to hope for before, especially since all of this came with free room and board.
After returning to the villa, Lu Li went to the basement. This time, he didn't refine pills, but was designing a treasure-level smelting furnace.

The latest novels are first published on !
In the afternoon, a large truck stopped at the entrance of Jinji Village.
"Are you Ike? This is the grain ordered by your boss," the middle-aged man handed the list to Ike.
Ike took the list and looked at the contents with shock.
He thought that the grain Lu Li mentioned was just ordinary rice, but he never expected that the truck was actually loaded with flour made from Wangwang Valley.
Ike's hands trembled as he held the list. He didn't expect that his younger siblings could also enjoy such benefits.
"Where should I put the stuff? We also provide unloading services," the middle-aged man urged.
"Please, follow me!"
Ike shouted loudly, his eyes blurred.
"Just talk, why are you shouting so loud!" The middle-aged man rolled his eyes at Ike speechlessly.
Adhering to the principle of customer first, the middle-aged man followed Ike to the front of a house.
"According to the agreement, we will probably deliver goods to you once a week. Will everything be unloaded in this place from now on?" the middle-aged man asked.
Ike nodded: "This room should be enough, right?"
The middle-aged man didn't speak, but checked the room inside and out. After confirming that the room didn't leak and there were no other problems, the middle-aged man nodded.
"No problem."
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he took out two Poké Balls and released two Machoke, and then began to move the supplies from the truck.
The two Machoke only took less than half an hour to unload a large truckload of living supplies.
"I'm leaving first. I wish you a beautiful new life," the middle-aged man said and drove away.
Ike stared blankly at the truck leaving.
"It's like a dream," Ike whispered.
He really didn't expect Lu Li to be so generous. You must know that the price of Wangwang Valley is ten times that of ordinary rice.
