After farming, I opened a family tree

The expansion of Tangji Soap Factory and the construction of a new house for the Shen Tang family are major events in Shenjia Village today.

Although Shen Dashan invited craftsmen from Linjia Village, the villagers still enthusiastically helped with logging and construction. There were even a few old carpenters with good skills who volunteered to start making furniture.

After school that day, Shen Dashan was in high spirits.

"Tangtang, come with me to the fields! Our rice is in ear form!"

The surprise on Shen Dashan's face could not be concealed.

Shen Tang followed Shen Dashan into the fields.

The rice fields in June are green, and the wind blows up green waves.

A lot of people had gathered in the fields, surrounding their own land, and many exclamations could be heard from afar.

"How come the Dashan family's rice has so many ears of rice?"

"And there are so many grains of rice on this ear of rice!"

"Oh my god, this one rice plant has more than all four of mine!"

......

Today, Shen Dashan calculated the time to come to the rice fields to apply fertilizer. Rice grows fast in spring and summer, and it has been a while since the last time Shen Dashan came to apply fertilizer.

But today's rice ears made Shen Dashan's eyes widen.

He had been farming for more than ten years, and this was the first time he saw so many rice ears on a rice plant, and the rice ears were full of rice grains!

Look at the rice ears in the paddy field next door. Although they have just emerged, it is obvious to the naked eye that the rice ears are several times larger than theirs.

Seeing the two acres of full and numerous rice ears, Shen Dashan suddenly remembered what his daughter had said before: this rice can yield a thousand kilograms per acre.

He didn't care at the time. He just thought that his daughter was still young. Although she was quite smart in business, Shen Dashan felt that his daughter still didn't understand the things on the farm.

Now, Shen Dashan looked at the two acres of rice in front of him, and suddenly felt that it was not impossible to produce a thousand gold coins per acre.

Therefore, as soon as Shen Tang finished school, Shen Dahe calculated the time and came back to find his daughter.

Compared to Shen Dashan's shock, Shen Tang was calm.

As expected of hybrid rice, in addition to high quality and yield, and strong resistance to pests, it also has strong adaptability.

I originally thought that according to the backward planting technology of ancient times, the growth of hybrid rice might not be as good as in later generations, but looking at its current growth, it is very good.

Shen Tang lowered his head and stroked the rice ears, and someone behind him asked.

"Boss, your rice is really growing..."

The other party seemed unable to find anyone to describe it to, but through their eyes, Shen Tang had already guessed what they were going to ask.

"I got this seed by accident, and I asked Dad to plant it just to give it a try."

"According to the current growth trend, if there is no empty shell and whitening after a while, it will be considered a success."

More and more people from Shenjia Village came to the fields to see Shen Dashan’s rice fields, and all of them were shocked and envious.

"This rice, I estimate, can yield a thousand kilograms per mu of land."

The speaker was an old man in the village, who was also the best farmer in Shenjia Village.

A thousand pounds!

Everyone looked at the rice with even more eager eyes. A few men couldn't help but want to reach out and touch the rice ears, but were stopped by the people around them.

"Everyone, after the autumn harvest, I will estimate that each household will receive some rice seeds from these two acres of land."

"You can wait until next spring and sow the seeds yourself and save them."

Shen Tang's voice was carried by the wind to the ears of everyone on the ridge of the field. Although the voice was small, the weight of his words was indeed extremely heavy.

"Boss! But is it true?"

"You really have to give us some."

"Woo woo woo woo, Boss, this is really great!"

......

"Of course I'm not giving it to you. When you grow it, you have to return what I give you."

Shen Tang spoke with a smile.

"Boss, if this rice can really yield that much, don't even think about returning it. I'll pay you ten times what you give me!"

"That's right, I'll pay you back ten times as much!"

Someone in the crowd spoke loudly.

"Hahahaha, thank you very much, folks. But since everyone has seen the situation in our fields, please don't let the news spread to other villages. Also, I would like to ask the villagers to help take care of this rice field."

Shen Tang spoke sincerely.

Hybrid rice cultivation was originally for the benefit of the people. If it succeeded, the first beneficiaries would undoubtedly be the people of Shenjia Village. It would be better to simply let every household take a share. That way, no one would have any particular concerns about the rice and would instead help monitor its growth.

"Of course! Boss, even if you don't tell me, I'll keep an eye on it for you. Anyone who touches these two acres of your land will be an enemy of the entire Shenjia Village."

"That's right! Shen Tang, don't worry. I don't need to go to work. I will take care of this rice field every day for Brother Dashan. Anyway, the harvest is only a month away at most."

"That's right, this is not just your rice now, boss. This is the rice of our entire village."

The per-acre yield of hybrid rice caused a sensation when it was introduced in later generations, let alone the Da Qi where the per-acre yield is only about 300 kilograms.

Shen Tang also took advantage of a very simple truth: when one person benefits, others will be jealous; but when the interests of a group of people are tied together, that group of people will be firmly united.

So this is the situation in Shenjia Village today.

Even strange dogs passing through the village would be driven away.

As a result, the reputation of the villagers of Shenjia Village among other surrounding villages suddenly deteriorated.

Everyone in Shenjia Village: It doesn’t matter, we’ll just have to wait until the harvest.

Shen Lizheng and several elders arranged a night patrol and protection team for the rice seedlings overnight.

The entire Shenjia Village is busy waiting for the harvest day to come.

But the news spread quickly.

When the people of Linjia Village came to Shenjia Village to expand their workshop and build houses, they found that there were no idle people in Shenjia Village anymore. From the elderly to the young children, they would patrol the ridges of the fields several times every day.

What's worse is that after work, the workers in the workshop would also take a walk along the ridges of the fields, as if there were some treasures in the fields.

Among the people who came to work in Linjia Village this time, there was an extremely smart young man. He was Lin Bei, the fifteen-year-old youngest son of the Zheng family in Linjia Village. He came here because he heard that the food in Shenjia Village was delicious.

Fifteen or sixteen years old is the age when children are fond of playing. Lin Bei did not take it seriously at first, but later he discovered the frequent patrols in Shenjia Village and became curious.

While everyone was having lunch after work at noon, Lin Bei slipped over to the edge of the field and took a look.

This is a surprising sight. Shen Dashan's two acres of land stand out among the ordinary rice fields.

Lin Bei rubbed his eyes in disbelief. Did those rice ears really exist?

It is also because the weather has been good during this period. After the rice has headed, its growth is even more gratifying, and it looks more eye-catching than before.

Lin Bei's breathing became rapid: Dad, come quickly!

There are treasures in the rice fields of Shenjia Village!!!
