I traveled through time and became the Queen of Ancient Dian
Chapter 142: Agricultural Reform in Full Bloom, the Dawn of Hope Appears
On the ridge of the field, Baona carefully cleared away the soil covering the seedlings, and her fingertips gently brushed across each young leaf.
The morning light shone through the mist onto her focused profile, reflecting the fine down.
Dongguo stood close to her, his eyes full of curiosity and anticipation, but his hands were not slow at all, skillfully spreading the fertilizer evenly on the edge of the field.
In the distance, the old farmer Gong Liang crossed his arms, his rough face was full of wrinkles, and his eyes still held a hint of distrust.
The air around seemed to become heavier, and the tense atmosphere enveloped this small experimental field like an invisible net.
Suddenly, the weather changed drastically. The sky, which was clear just now, was covered by thick dark clouds in an instant. A strong wind blew, blowing the wormwood on the ridges of the fields to the ground, making them sway and whimper.
Bean-sized raindrops hit the soil, splashing mud flowers.
"Oh no! It's going to rain heavily!" Baona exclaimed, stood up immediately and looked around anxiously.
She knew that the most feared thing for these newly planted seedlings was being washed away by heavy rain. Once they were submerged by rain, all previous efforts would be wasted.
"Hurry, Dongguo, cover the seedlings with the straw!" Baona shouted loudly and ran to the place where the straw was piled.
Dongguo followed closely behind, and the two of them worked together to carry bundles of straw to the field and carefully covered the seedlings with them.
The strong wind, carrying rain, hit them mercilessly, soaking their clothes in an instant.
The cold rain slid down their cheeks, but they were completely unaware and were only concerned with protecting the crops in the experimental fields.
Old farmer Gong Liang looked at the two people busy in the wind and rain from afar. The corners of his wrinkled eyes trembled slightly, and his clenched fists slowly loosened a little.
Looking at the two young figures fighting against the sky in the rainstorm, the hard stone in his heart seemed to begin to loosen.
The wind and rain grew stronger, but the figures in the fields became more determined.
A strong gust of wind blew by, blowing away the straw covering the seedlings.
Baona used all her strength to grab the edge of the straw tightly, trying to fix it on the seedling again.
However, the power of the wind and rain was so great that her body was shaken by the wind and the veins on her arms were exposed.
"Hold on a little longer! You can do it!" Dongguo encouraged himself loudly while moving with difficulty in the wind and rain.
He held the straw tightly in his arms, afraid that it would be blown away by the wind again.
The two struggled hard in the heavy rain, using their frail bodies to protect this experimental field that held hope.
At this moment, a deep voice broke through the clamor of the rainstorm, "You..."
"You... are so stupid!" The deep voice carried a hint of helplessness, but more of it was admiration.
The empress was wearing a straw raincoat, followed by a Tuoba agricultural researcher, a Duan Gan seed merchant, and a Baili fertilizer craftsman, all wearing the same straw raincoats. The group walked to the edge of the field with difficulty.
The rainstorm gradually stopped, and the sunlight penetrated the clouds, shining on the wet fields, reflecting colorful light.
The air is filled with the fragrance of soil and the freshness of grass, which is refreshing.
Baona and Dongguo were soaked, but they didn't care about that. They couldn't wait to run to the experimental field to check the condition of the seedlings.
The miracle happened!
The originally weak seedlings, after being baptized by the rain, not only did not fall over, but became more upright. Crystal clear water droplets rolled on the leaves, sparkling in the sun, exuding vitality.
"Alive! They are alive!" Dongguo jumped up excitedly, a joyful smile on his face.
Baona also breathed a sigh of relief and a relieved smile appeared on her face.
As time went by, the crops in the experimental fields grew well, far surpassing the surrounding ordinary fields.
The full rice ears bend the rice stalks, and the heavy fruits hang on the branches, emitting an enticing fragrance.
The scene of harvest attracted the attention of everyone around.
The day of harvest has finally arrived.
The golden rice filled the granary and the heavy fruits filled the baskets.
Laughter and cheers echoed over the fields, and the joyful atmosphere infected everyone.
The young farmers cheered and jumped, celebrating the unprecedented harvest.
Baona looked at everything in front of her and her eyes were filled with tears of excitement.
Old farmer Gong Liang stood at the edge of the field, looking at the scene of the harvest, his wrinkled face full of shock and disbelief.
He slowly walked up to Baona and bowed deeply. "Miss Baona, I was wrong! I shouldn't have doubted you before. Your new technology is truly amazing!"
Baona quickly helped the old farmer Gongliang up and said, "Old man, you are too kind. This is the result of everyone's joint efforts."
As the sun sets, the golden afterglow spreads across the earth.
Baona stood on the edge of the field, watching the crowd gradually disperse in the distance, her heart full of hope and longing.
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind her, "Baona..."
Baona turned around and saw the queen standing behind her, looking into the distance with deep eyes.
The afterglow of the setting sun outlines her noble figure, as if coated with a layer of golden glow.
"Look," the Queen's voice was filled with emotion, "this land is showing new vitality."
The news spread throughout the village like wind, and more and more farmers flocked to the experimental fields to witness the miracle with their own eyes.
They stroked the heavy ears of rice with their hands, their faces filled with irrepressible excitement.
The frowns of the past have relaxed, replaced by longing and hope for the future.
"Miss Baona, we also want to grow such good crops like you!"
"Yes, Miss Baona, please teach us!"
Eager requests came one after another, and Baona smiled with relief.
She patiently explained the key points of the new technology to each farmer and patiently answered their questions.
She knew that the success of this agricultural reform depended on the efforts and contributions of every farmer.
Preliminary statistics show that more than 30% of farmland is willing to apply new planting techniques.
Looking at the endless fields with green waves of hope surging everywhere, Baona's heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.
She seemed to see a future of plenty, plenty of food and clothing, and a stable and prosperous life beckoning to them.
The joy of the harvest came like a tide, flooding the entire village.
Crop yields are estimated to have increased by nearly 40%, which is an astonishing figure!
Baona's name was praised over and over again by people. She became a hero of agricultural reform and was admired by all people.
The celebratory bonfire burned brightly, lighting up the night sky red.
People sang and danced to celebrate this hard-won victory.
Baona stood in the middle of the crowd, feeling this exciting moment, her heart filled with joy and pride.
However, among the celebrating crowd, the Queen appeared exceptionally calm.
She looked into the distance, with a barely perceptible worry in her eyes.
She knows that although this agricultural reform has achieved phased success, there is still a long way to go and challenges remain.
As the night deepened, the noise gradually subsided.
Baona walked alone on the ridge of the field. The breeze blew by, bringing with it the fragrance of rice flowers.
She looked up at the starry sky, which was dotted with stars and sparkled brightly.
"Baona..." A low voice sounded behind her.
