Crossing the famine, relying on a spiritual spring to support the entire village

The attitudes of the villagers changed so quickly that Su Nian'an felt a little overwhelmed. He responded with a few words and quickly walked to Chu Zhiang's side.

Chu Zhiang wondered why this woman suddenly came out. Could it be that she wanted to take responsibility for him while he was clarifying things for them? He would definitely reject her righteously later! Was it a dream for a pregnant woman to want him as a scapegoat?

Su Nian'an frowned when she saw Chu Zhiang suddenly glaring at her. What's going on? Why does this person have such a strange expression? She didn't do anything.

"Boss, I want to talk to you about growing vegetables."

Ah? Not confessing myself. Well, he was thinking too much.

"Okay, you say it" He originally wanted to say it, the woman said whatever she wanted to say.

"Everyone, please be quiet. Madam Su has something to say to you all." Chu Zhiang said, and then stepped aside.

Su Nian'an looked at the crowd, there were men, women, young and old, these were just ordinary people, born in a disaster year, who knew how much suffering they had endured.

Trust is not innate. She can understand them because when she first got the space and planted the apple trees, she only thought about their family.

If she didn't want to put these things on the open road, she wouldn't have moved the whole tree out for people to pick.

But when she saw the satisfaction and happiness on everyone's faces after they ate the apples she found and drank the water she found, she felt so fulfilled. At that moment, she seemed to have found the meaning of life.

"Fellow villagers, brothers and sisters, let the past be the past. Life is always moving forward. No one will hold on to the past. That will only make them hungry. I, Su Nian'an, am not a wealthy person. I am just an ordinary citizen.

Everyone’s life is hard now, and I just hope to do what I can for the people. It’s fate that we gather in Axe Village in this troubled time, and I find it’s a blessing to have such a good crop as potatoes.

But it is useless to rely on blessings to live. Without blessings, you will only go hungry and return to the days of hunger, cold and displacement.

Only by relying on ourselves can we survive in this chaotic world and find every ray of hope for our elderly parents and young children and grandchildren!"

Su Nian'an's words seemed to attack the souls of everyone present.

Looking at their elderly relatives and the pale and thin faces of their young children, they felt a deep sense of powerlessness. What could they do? God punished them with a few years of no rain, and the court did not care about them, but instead added fuel to the fire, burning, killing and looting.

The Su family looked at Su Nian'an with sparkling eyes, a feeling of "my daughter has grown up". Their An'er is so amazing!

Pan Changhe and Chu Zhiang were shocked that such words could be said by a peasant woman.

"Now our Su family and the eldest boss have gone through so much hardship to grow green vegetables that can grow on land like ours from seeds that have failed dozens of times. This is it..." Su Nian'an took out a green vegetable from the bamboo basket. It was crisp and translucent and looked delicious.

"See, I told you it was green vegetables, but this stuff is really expensive." Wang Wu said excitedly.

"So this is called green vegetables, is it delicious?" Some people feel itchy when they see it, but they can only look but not eat it.

"The Su family is really amazing. They can grow both potatoes and vegetables." It would be great if I could teach them how to grow vegetables.

"..."

The crowd started talking

"Green vegetables originally grow in the south. Perhaps because it is located at the boundary between the north and the south, we can actually grow them here in Axe Village. Unfortunately, the survival rate is too low. If we hadn't bought so many seeds, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to get back the money." Su Nian'an looked at the restless crowd and said, "You can't grow them if you buy seeds yourself."

"We are still studying how to improve the survival rate and yield, and we have already figured out some of the results..."

"Su Xiaomei, what is the survival rate?" Wang Wu asked what many people wanted to ask.

"The survival rate is the ratio of the total number of seeds sown to the number of seeds that grow. Since we want to continue our research, we have decided to recommend that everyone plant rapeseed that has been successfully studied."

The crowd was immediately excited. That was great! If they planted these vegetables, they would be able to sell them for a good price. By then, they would be able to afford rice and flour, not to mention cotton clothes.

"Great, Madam Su, how do you grow these vegetables?"

"But we don't have any extra money to buy seeds!"

"..."

"I know that you don't have extra money to buy seeds. Now I have some rapeseeds. You can take them on a voluntary basis."

Su Nian'an had just spoken, but before he could finish, the crowd started talking. The noise was so loud that Su Nian'an couldn't speak, and his words were drowned out by everyone's words.

"Everyone, be quiet and listen to what Madam Su has to say!" Chu Zhiang saw the crowd jumping with excitement and hurriedly stopped them.

Su Nian'an gave Chu Zhiang a thankful look and continued, "We are the employers who plant rapeseed for you. We will keep 20% of the crops as compensation. You can choose to sell them or keep them for yourself.

The boss has already applied to the government for the land use rights. Everyone knows that buying land is an expensive expense, so this is the current plan. Whether you are willing or not is entirely voluntary."

In an instant, half of the people who had just clamored to be willing to work were gone. This meant that they were just doing the work of laboring for themselves.

There are still a small number of people who say they are willing

Su Nian'an looked at the hesitant people without any hurry and continued, "Those who are willing can come to my brother Su Ping'an to register and receive the rapeseed tomorrow. It is all voluntary. We will distribute the vegetables picked today to everyone later. That's what I just said. Please consider it."

The villagers wanted to ask something, but Su Nian'an said vaguely. After she finished speaking, she walked down and took Wang's arm back to the wooden house. Su Ping'an and others followed behind.

Today's Su Nianan surprised them too much. He planted more than 100 kilograms of potatoes and vegetables by himself, and spoke in front of hundreds of people without being timid...

"An'er, how can you do so much work by yourself? It's so dangerous." As soon as Wang entered the room, she quickly took Su Nian'an's hand and asked with concern, "How are you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"I'm fine, mother," Su Nian'an replied, feeling warm in her heart.

"Girl, your elder brother is here, and there are so many uncles and aunts here. How can you go to work alone? What if something happens to you? What will you do?" Su Pingan said with a little anger.

"Yes, girl, I told you not to do heavy work, but you went to hoe the fields, and the most important thing is that you went alone. What will happen to the Axe Mountain with so many wild beasts?"

Everyone was talking at the same time. Just thinking about it made me scared. In this chaotic world, there are not only wolves and tigers, but also people with bad intentions. Especially now that they know that the Su family has so many seeds, food and planting techniques.
