The two young men were very smart and quickly got the hang of it. They walked around in circles in the fields, and the villagers were amazed.

“This is so fast and so convenient.”

"That's right. This is much easier than the two old oxen in our team."

In previous years, they used to pull a wooden plow behind the ox and insert the iron plow head into the soil to plow the land. This was time-consuming and laborious. If the ox was disobedient, someone had to lead the way in front, which was more manpower-consuming.

The tiller designed by Ye Jianguo is a small diesel rotary tiller that uses the engine to drive the rotating blade to plow the land.

One person only needs to hold the two handles at the back and move forward along the force of the machine like pushing a wheelchair. Even a woman can operate it easily.

It saves a lot of manpower and time, and not much diesel is used. When the noodle factory becomes profitable, they can afford it. But they still have to buy on credit at the beginning. There is no other way. The team has been too poor in previous years and has never had any spare money.

"Hey, this is good. We finally don't have to go out and borrow cows to plow the fields this year." Old Man Gu felt that his team had finally been able to hold their heads high.

In previous years, we had to go out and beg for help from everyone to borrow cows. If you came to borrow a cow, you had to wait until the other party had used it up. Therefore, the spring plowing time was always rushed every year.

The better-off brigades in their commune all have their own characteristic industries. Some of them raise fish by the river, and there are fish all year round. In addition to providing meat for the team members to eat, they can also sell them for money.

Some brigades run chicken and duck farms, producing both eggs and meat.

There are also people who are clearing land and planting orchards on the mountain to supply the cannery, but the brigades near them have nothing.

Their Qingshan Brigade had a very poor foundation and had no spare money every year. Even if the old team leader wanted to do something, he couldn't. He had no education and his thinking was limited, so he couldn't think of any way to get rich no matter how hard he tried.

Finally, he caught up with the Ye family before he died. He had been optimistic about the Ye family for a long time, but when he went there, he didn't expect that they didn't want to take over the mess of the brigade at all.

I didn't expect the accident to happen so soon. During the autumn harvest last year, the old team leader fell off the ridge of the field because he was walking in a hurry. His head hit a big rock.

Seeing that he was dying, he used his last breath to force Ye Jianguo to take over the job of captain before he felt relieved.

I believe that if the old captain were still alive, he would feel relieved and glad that he did not choose the wrong person.

No one dared to say this now, but many people thought so in their hearts. The old captain still had great prestige in the hearts of the villagers.

An old man spent his whole life wanting the people in his team to live a good life. Not to say that they would be rich, but at least they could have a full meal every day.

Now this wish finally has the potential to be exceeded, and the team members are full of hope.

The tillage machine was indeed very efficient. In less than half an hour, the land they had chosen was plowed. Ye Jianguo saw that many brave villagers were eager to try it.

Fortunately, we chose another piece of land and asked the two young men at the beginning to act as technicians temporarily to teach everyone how to use the tillage machine.

The operation is really simple, and he is not afraid of not being able to teach it, so he lets everyone try it out.

The father of the two young men took the lead and rushed towards his sons, saying that he wanted to try it first.

The other villagers looked at these two old men who usually walked so hard that they almost staggered with every step. They were so angry that their teeth itched. Hey! These two old guys.

The fields were bustling with activity. Seeing this, Old Man Gu suggested to Ye Jianguo that they start spring plowing early tomorrow. Ye Jianguo thought about it and agreed, thinking it was no big deal.

So, the next day, Qingshan Brigade began spring plowing in full swing.

Only Ye Jianguo and Ye Jinyi attended the spring plowing in the Ye family this year. In previous years, the women still went to the fields during the spring plowing and autumn harvest.

This year, Grandma Ye is old, Zhao Hongying is pregnant, and Liu Guiying has to stay at home to take care of her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so none of them participated in the spring plowing.

As for Ye Jinhua, she was married and no longer under the brigade's jurisdiction. Although her household registration had not been transferred yet, no one cared about these details.

Yes, Zhao Hongying was pregnant. She was discovered to be pregnant on the eve of Ye Jinyi's decision to take good care of his wife so that she wouldn't only have eyes for his younger sister and not him every day.

Ye Jinyi felt both aggrieved and excited. If spring farming hadn't helped him release his emotions, he would probably have gone schizophrenic.

Ye Jingang did not participate in the spring plowing. Everyone knew that he had a job in the county town, but no one knew that his job had been transferred.

Moreover, Wang Liang has been converted to a regular employee with the help of Ye Jingang and Liu Erge, and his relationship with Zhou Tingting is also stable.

Zhou Tingting's mother's birthday is next month, and Zhou Tingting will take him back to meet her parents. Ye Jingang is particularly happy for him.

Mu Yunzheng went to participate in the spring plowing work without any intention of showing off. He was seriously injured this time, so the army gave him two months of leave. After all, it has been almost a month now.

He finally has time to spend some quality time with Ye Jinhua, so he won't be stupid enough to go to work.

He just put on makeup and went to the black market in the county town and Bin City with Ye Jingang a few times, selling a lot of goods to fill his and Ye Jinhua's small treasury.

And there was an unexpected gain. I accidentally got a batch of fertilizers from Brother Hei in Bin City.

It seems that Brother Hei still has a lot of connections, but according to the regulations in their industry, no one can ask about the source of the goods, which makes it convenient for Mu Yunzheng and others to ship the goods.

Mu Yunzheng directly and openly brought the fertilizer back to Qingshan Brigade. As usual, the villagers tacitly assumed that it was Ye's son-in-law who got the fertilizer using his own connections.

The leaders of the commune also thought so. Some people were concerned about the fertilizers in Qingshan Brigade, just like they were concerned about the noodle production line.

But on the surface, with Mu Yunzheng, a son-in-law who is a senior active-duty military officer, and Ye Jinzhong as a son, some inappropriate thoughts can only be put aside.

To be on the safe side, Mu Yunzheng deliberately wore a neat military uniform and showed up at the commune. Although he looked handsome, the aura he had fought on the battlefield was not something that ordinary people could withstand.

The commune leaders politely sent the people away with nodding and bowing.

For the rest of their time, Ye Jinhua and Mu Yunzheng went hunting every few days and strolled around the county town every few days.

During the spring plowing period, the food for every household in the brigade was much better than usual, so the Ye family could rest assured that the smell of meat would not be noticeable.

The two also specially hunted two wild boars to improve the food for the team members.

At present, Ye Jinhua feels that the people in the team are quite sensible and will not cause trouble for their family. She is also willing to give them some benefits from time to time.
