A young boy from the 1970s, separated from his family, fled famine and led his younger brother into

"Brother, do you really have a way to get chicks and rabbits?"

In the living room, Lu Nianci looked at Lu Xingzhou's resolute back, her eyes shining like two stars.

She knew that her all-powerful brother would never let her down!

Lu Zhenguo and Zhou Yayun also looked at their son in shock.

To their utter surprise, the first to agree was Lu Xingzhou, who had previously been the least optimistic about the plan.

"Xingzhou, you...you mustn't do anything reckless!" Lu Zhenguo warned worriedly. "The management is strict now, and these things are not easy to handle."

Lu Xingzhou turned around, his face now displaying the same icy, expressionless demeanor.

"Dad, I know what I'm doing."

He spoke casually, but his gaze fell on Lu Nianci.

"However, let me make this clear first. I can get the items for you, but if you don't take good care of them and something goes wrong, you'll be responsible for it."

"No problem!" Lu Nianci patted her chest, making a solemn promise, "I guarantee I'll complete the mission! Not only will I raise them well, but I'll also make them our family's new 'treasure trove'!"

"A treasure bowl?" Zhou Ya Yun was amused by her daughter's boastful manner. "You little rascal, you've got quite the nerve."

"Mom, I'm not bragging!"

Lu Nianci pushed her "business plan" to the center of the table again, her little face full of seriousness.

"Dad, Mom, brother, look, my plan is actually a complete ecological cycle system, which I call 'three-dimensional agriculture'!"

"Three-dimensional agriculture?"

This is yet another completely unheard-of new word.

Lu Zhenguo and Zhou Yayun exchanged glances, and even Lu Xingzhou showed an interested expression.

"Yes!" Lu Nianci pointed to the blueprint with her little finger and began to explain.

"The vegetables in the greenhouse, their leaves and roots can be used to feed chickens and rabbits, this is the first level of utilization."

"Chicken and rabbit manure, after fermentation, is a top-quality organic fertilizer that can be used to fertilize vegetables and help them grow better. This is the second layer of utilization."

"In this way, planting and breeding form a mutually reinforcing closed loop. We no longer need to spend extra money on feed and fertilizer, which greatly reduces costs and achieves resource recycling!"

She paused, then offered an even more enticing prospect.

"Furthermore, when spring arrives, we can sell the chicks and rabbits we raise in our greenhouse to the uncles and aunties in the compound who want to raise livestock. At that time, we will not only sell vegetables, but also chicks and rabbits, and we can even provide breeding technology guidance!"

"This...this..."

Lu Zhenguo and Zhou Yayun were completely stunned by their daughter's grand vision.

They originally thought that their daughter was just childish and wanted to keep some small animals for fun.

Unexpectedly, in her young mind, she had already constructed such a complete, scientific, and even futuristic business empire!

From planting to breeding, and then to technology export...

This is not "neglecting one's duties" at all; it's clearly a grand strategy being played!

"Nianci, where...where did you learn all this from?" Lu Zhenguo looked at his daughter, his voice trembling slightly.

He has asked this question many times.

But each time, the shock his daughter gave him was more intense than the last.

"Dad, I already told you, it was written in a book left by your comrade-in-arms, my father Su Weiguo!" Lu Nianci once again used this all-purpose shield, with a hint of pride on her face that said, "My dad is just that amazing."

Upon hearing this, Lu Zhenguo's eyes welled up with tears.

Weiguo, my good brother, can you see this?

Your daughter is inheriting your wisdom and legacy in a way that neither you nor I can imagine.

If you have a spirit in heaven, you should feel comforted.

He took a deep breath and slammed his hand on the table.

"Okay! Let's do it this way!"

His voice was strong and resolute, full of a soldier's determination.

"Tell Dad what you need or what you're missing! Dad will sell everything we own to support you!"

"Thank you, Dad!" Lu Nianci said sweetly.

Seeing her husband and daughter's high spirits, Zhou Yayun was also inspired, and her worries disappeared.

"Okay! Mom will go and clear out that empty space next to the greenhouse right away. Let's get started!"

The whole family's enthusiasm was ignited.

Only Lu Xingzhou remained leaning against the door frame, silent.

But in his heart, he was more shocked than anyone else.

"Three-dimensional agriculture", "ecological cycle"...

He had only seen these terms in some internal technology briefings, as vague concepts of the future direction of agricultural development.

But now, his five-year-old sister has not only clearly explained these theories, but has even developed a complete and highly feasible implementation plan.

This girl...

Did she really see it in a book?

Or……

A thought so audacious it startled even himself flashed through his mind.

No, it's impossible.

He quickly dismissed the idea.

Whoever she is, whatever secrets she holds.

One thing is certain.

She is his sister.

I am part of this family.

This is enough.

"Now that you've made up your mind, let's not delay any longer."

Lu Xingzhou straightened up and walked over.

"Building a breeding shed is more complicated than building a greenhouse. It requires considering many issues such as ventilation, lighting, cold protection, and disease prevention."

He went straight to the heart of the matter as soon as he opened his mouth.

"You draw the blueprints; I'll take care of the actual construction."

He looked at Lu Nianci, his tone calm, yet carrying an undeniable resolve.

"I will also resolve the issue of materials."

Looking at him, Lu Nianci felt a warm current welling up in her heart.

This older brother is always like this.

They say the coldest things, but do the warmest things.

He was like a silent iceberg, with a cold exterior concealing a burning passion.

"Alright!" Lu Nianci nodded emphatically. "Then... if we, brother and sister, are of one mind, our strength can break even metal!"

She stretched out her little fist.

Lu Xingzhou was stunned for a moment, looking at her small, white fist and then at her bright, expectant eyes.

He hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he extended his fist and gently touched it with hers.

"Um."

A simple syllable, yet it represents a firm commitment.

However, despite the good plan, a new and most challenging problem soon presented itself to them.

Materials for building the breeding sheds were easy to obtain; Lu Xingzhou had his "special channels."

But where should we get chicks and rabbits?

In this era of scarcity, when everything required ration coupons, these two kinds of animals were not something that could be easily bought in the market.

They are even rarer and harder to find than off-season vegetable seeds.
