Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

Chapter 64 High-yield soybeans
Fang Tao was so happy. He had been envious of other children who could go to school, but he had told his mother many times, but she had not agreed.

In Tian Guihua's opinion, what's the point of going to school? Even if my brother-in-law finishes junior high school, he will still have to go home to farm in the end, right?
But the miracles Fang Wei created this year gradually changed her mind.

“Thank you very much!”

"Don't thank me. Your father told me to do this. I'm just running errands. Come on, I'll take you to buy stationery."

Fang Wei was right. Whether it was the private plot or the land in the valley, the eldest brother contributed a lot.

The eldest brother should have a share of the money from selling soybeans, so paying the tuition for his nephew is also his responsibility.

Afterwards, he took Fang Tao to buy a schoolbag and stationery.

Fang Tao looked so handsome with his schoolbag on his back that he jumped and skipped as he walked, and he couldn't wait to go back and show it to his sister.

"Manman, I will study hard."

The child is sensible at an early age and knows what to say to make his uncle happy.

Fang Wei smiled and touched Taotao's head. He was not worried about this at all.

Taotao is very smart. When I teach him some new words or simple arithmetic, he can remember them firmly.

It’s just that the journey to school is a little far, and the adults don’t have time to take him to school, so he needs to run back and forth by himself.

Fang Wei really wants to buy a bicycle now, but on the one hand he doesn't have enough money, and on the other hand he doesn't have a bicycle ticket, so he can only think about it.

Even if he had the money and tickets, he still had to consider the impact and had to find a good excuse when the time came.

The next few days.

Fang Wei took some time to go to the mountain and redesignated a [hunting area].

He didn't have time to wander around in the mountains all day, so he could only focus on setting traps.

There are some tricks to setting traps. They need to be set in areas where wild animals often appear, preferably on paths where wild animals often walk.

He didn't expect to capture any large beasts, but he could still hope for small and medium-sized animals like muntjacs.

After all, this area is far away from the village and is not the only way in and out of the mountains, so he also placed a few [animal traps] in appropriate locations.

After returning, he said hello to Zheng Xianfa, Fang Ping, Hu Zi and others. Although the possibility of the villagers going there was very small, telling them in advance was also a way of showing his attitude.

"Little scholar, you really have a wide range of interests. Okay, I got it. I'll tell the members who often go up the mountain.

The rice has now entered the heading stage, so you need to pay more attention to the experimental fields."

When Zheng Xianfa heard Fang Wei's words, he interrupted him impatiently.

He is not opposed to going up the mountain to hunt. As long as you have the ability, you can hunt whatever you want and no one will bother you.

But Fang Wei is different. He is the treasure of the team. If any danger occurs during hunting, he will have no tears to cry.

However, you cannot force the other party on this matter, you can only persuade them tactfully.

"Captain, don't worry. I just set some traps in the mountains. Whether or not we get anything is entirely up to luck. Everything is going smoothly in the experimental fields, and the data from the main fields is also very good. There won't be any problems."

Fang Wei couldn't help but laugh out loud, and then gave Zheng Xianfa some reassurance.

Afterwards, he took a tour of the experimental fields and the fields.

The rice is nearing the end of its heading stage, while the rice in the experimental fields has already entered the grain filling stage. This means that the rice in the experimental fields will mature a little earlier, but the difference is not huge.

"Huzi, during this period, we must pay attention to topdressing and not be careless. Also, go talk to the team and ask them to prepare more fertilizer in the fields. Make sure to fertilize after the rice ears start to fill with grain."

Fang Wei is equivalent to the "technical manager". He proposes a plan, and then someone will organize and implement it.

Specifically for the experimental field, the person who organized and implemented it was Zheng Hu.

"Got it. I'll pay attention."

Zheng Hu nodded and took Fang Wei's words to heart.

This guy used to be a bit of a pushover, but since the other party had convinced him, he had become remarkably obedient. He also genuinely enjoyed the work of "breeding" and couldn't help but feel a sense of pride when he saw the rice growing healthy and strong.

The third brother is very capable, but the specific work still depends on the entire team, right?
Fang Wei patted Zheng Hu's shoulder with satisfaction. In this day and age, everyone actually has a sense of collective honor in their bones.

Just one sentence, "Let the men, women, young and old in the village have enough food to eat," can stimulate everyone's subjective initiative.

this day.

Fang Wei and Fang Ping went to the valley together and began to harvest soybeans.

The growth cycle of this crop of soybeans is nearly 50 days. The beans are plump and glossy in color, which is very attractive to look at.

The two brothers spent several days picking the soybeans and transporting them back home.

The drying work was basically done by Tian Guihua alone. Fang Ping had to go to work, and Fang Wei had to be busy with the experimental fields and prepare the land in the valley, so they were all very busy.

The final calculated yield per mu was 302 jin, a significant increase over the previous season's yield of 224 jin per mu.

[Harvest crops, points +302]

Total points: 545

He has had almost no free time in the past few months, so taking advantage of the free time today, he will settle all the unsettled projects.

[Stable output of water wells, steady flow of water, daily harvest points 20]

[Current settlement until the last day of the next month, points +4800 points]

[Eggs produced, points +50]

Total points: 5395

The previous bottom point has returned to above 5000 points, but upgrading the [Planting Area] to level 8 is not enough.

It would be enough to upgrade the [Hunting Area] or [Picking Area] from level 6 to level 7, but he was a little hesitant because there would only be a few points left after the upgrade.

So he decided to save the points for the time being.

At this moment, it was almost noon, and Fang Wei had no plan to go out.

He went to the front yard and began to screen soybean seeds. The quality of the beans this season was obviously higher, so he decided to keep 42 kilograms of soybeans for seeds.

It is best not to sow soybeans continuously on the same piece of arable land, and you need to rotate and plant other crops. Therefore, soybeans will not be planted again in the spring of the following year in private plots and land in the valley.

At that time, Fang Wei had another idea. If the late rice harvest was good this year, he planned to set aside 5 mu of experimental land to plant soybeans next spring.

However, he has not discussed this matter with Zheng Xianfa yet. Anyway, it is still early, so there is no need to rush.

"Third brother, are you in the room?"

He was carefully sorting soybean seeds when he heard his elder brother shouting.

"I'm here. The door is not locked. Come in."

Fang Wei responded, thinking that the other party was calling him to eat.

As a result, Fang Ping and Zheng Xianfa walked in together.
"Xiao Xiucai, everyone will go up the mountain to collect tea seeds tomorrow. You will leave one person to guard the experimental field, and everyone else must go."

Members of the breeding team do not participate in the team's collective labor, except in special circumstances.

Zheng Xianfa came specifically to inform us of this matter. If someone else did that, it might not be possible to command these guys.

"Got it. We'll go to the team headquarters early tomorrow morning."

This matter was reasonable and Fang Wei agreed readily.

Zheng Xianfa was very happy, but he was afraid that the other party would become arrogant and refuse to obey his orders. If that happened, how could he convince others?
"Huh? Are these the soybeans I'm going to save for seed? They're looking good, and you can tell they're a good variety. Little scholar, let me make a deal. How about you pick the rest and give 20 kilograms to the team as seeds?"

Zheng Xianfa had such sharp eyes that he could tell at a glance that these soybeans were not ordinary.
