Fang Zhou, I'm just a farmer, not Shennong!

A large group of gang members with fleshy faces, muscular bodies, wearing various leather vests and covered with tattoos were running towards the fields in a hurry, holding sickles and other farm tools.

The picture is completely different from their body shape.

The leaders were none other than the leader of the Greedy Wolf Gang, Short Tornado, and the skinny leader of the Iron Blood Gang who was originally assigned by Lu Yuan. He was nicknamed "Monkey Master" outside and "Little Monkey" by Lu Yuan.

"Boss! I brought my brothers here!"

Dwarf Tornado ran over and spoke to Lu Yuan enthusiastically.

At this time, Lu Yuan also noticed that in addition to the gang members in the crowd, there were actually quite a few young and middle-aged men from Block 79, who were also holding various farm tools and mixed in with the gang members to come and help.

"Go."

Lu Yuan waved his hand and went to rest in the small container house that had already been built nearby, letting them play on their own.

The various tools that Lin Yuxia promised have not arrived yet, but now more than a month has passed, so I think it should be about time.

After all, the logistics in this world are not as developed as in the previous life, so it is normal that it is a bit slow.

"It's growing so fast...and..."

A member of the Greedy Wolf Gang walked to the edge of the field, reached out and gently grabbed a rice plant, held the rice ear to his nose and smelled it gently.

The fragrant aroma of rice flowed into his lungs along his nose, instantly brightening his eyes.

“Excellent quality!”

"The boss is really Shennong! When I was back home, I had a little bit of land, but the crops never grew so fast or so perfectly."

"Hehe, that's the boss, our big boss!"

"Stop talking nonsense and get to work! Don't lose to those little bastards from the Iron Blood Gang!"

The members of the Greedy Wolf Gang immediately raised their sickles and rushed into the fields, working desperately. Seeing this, the members of the Iron Blood Gang also immediately started working desperately, fearing that they would be overtaken by the Greedy Wolf Gang and cause Lu Yuan's dissatisfaction.

They have developed their own self-awareness and no longer need a whip to whip them, which actually means Lu Yuan doesn't need to worry too much.

Lu Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground of the container house. As the crops outside were harvested, row after row of reminders emerged in front of Lu Yuan's vision.

Congratulations! You have harvested a new crop: Common Corn.

[You have unlocked a new advanced crop: Increased Corn Yield I]

[Congratulations! You have harvested a new crop: Common Wheat]

[You have unlocked a new advanced crop: Super Wheat I]

Congratulations! You have harvested a new crop: Common Potatoes.

[You have unlocked a new advanced crop: King Potato I]

[Congratulations! You have harvested a new advanced crop: Proliferated Rice I]

[Your all-round attributes are improved]

A series of numerous rewards flooded Lu Yuan's screen.

In addition to the brand new crops unlocked in this system store, there are also additional rewards.

[Given its existing abilities, it gains the exclusive skills 'Water Dragon Bomb' and 'Tree Root Burial']

A large amount of memories were injected into Lu Yuan's mind, including hand seals and all the experience about the use of this skill.

It can be said that almost instantly, Lu Yuan's proficiency in these two skills has reached the extreme.

Seeing so many rewards.

Lu Yuan sat cross-legged on the ground, staring at what was in front of him, and clicked on the system store.

Row after row of brilliant lights flashed across the system store.

In the advanced farming area, three new advanced crops including 'King Potato I' were unlocked.

These advanced crops simply look the same as the previous proliferated rice I, with not much change.

However, its yield has been greatly improved compared with the original. The final yield per mu of corn, wheat, and rice can be steadily increased by 30%. The single calorie content of potatoes has been increased, which is a bit like compressed biscuits, small but filling.

In addition to these advanced crops, some common crops are also unlocked in the common crop row.

For example, common sweet potatoes, common cassava and other tuber crops, as well as common sorghum, common oats and other cereal crops...

However, they all have one characteristic.

They are all grain crops.

But it is normal to think about it. The high yield of grain crops per mu makes it easier for people to have enough to eat. As for nutrition, people will only consider the issue of nutritional balance after they can eat their fill.

However, what caught Lu Yuan's attention the most was the collection of [Proliferation Rice I].

Lu Yuan originally thought that after collecting [Proliferating Rice I], he would get a new advanced crop, but he didn't expect that. On the contrary, it provided Lu Yuan with an improvement in all his attributes, including physical strength, reaction, Originium energy content, Originium skills, etc.

'Will it require more harvests, or other conditions to unlock?'

Lu Yuan began to guess in his heart.

But it doesn’t matter. There is still a long way to go, so I will explore it slowly.

After a while.

Another box popped up in front of Lu Yuan.

[Gain 5 field experience points (normal crops provide 1 experience point, advanced I crops provide 2 experience points)]

【Congratulations, your land level has been upgraded】

[LV1→LV2]

【Land Level LV2 (1/20)】

[You have unlocked the new feature 'Land Upgrade' (Note: You can click on the land on the interface and use system points to upgrade the land. If you lose the right to use the land, the land will automatically return to ordinary land and the system points will not be refunded)]

Lu Yuan clicked on the bird's-eye view of the land on the system's main interface, and then an "upgradeable" button appeared on it.

According to the introduction, the land in reality can also be upgraded to LV2 level land, just like the land level in the system. The cost per acre is not much, only 5 points are required.

And the upgrade is permanent, and there is no need to spend points to renew it later. Of course, if you want to advance to a higher level of land, you will need to continue to spend additional upgrade fees.

of course.

If Lu Yuan loses the right to use the land, the upgraded land will automatically return to its original state. Even if he regains the right to use it in the future, he will still need to purchase it again.

These precautions are written above.

Although I really want to click on the upgrade to try the effect.

But crops are still being harvested in the fields, and Lu Yuan doesn't know what visual changes this will bring, so Lu Yuan still wants to wait until the harvest is completed before clicking to upgrade.

It would take a long time to harvest three hundred acres of land even with the use of tools. In addition, Lu Yuan planted several kinds of crops on his three hundred acres of land, so the harvest would take even longer.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan had no tools, but he had the advantage of having more people.

The 'Greedy Wolf Gang' and the 'Iron Blood Gang' sent a total of more than 500 strong and young gang members, in addition to dozens of young refugees from Block 79.

With 600 people in total, it should have been a mess, but under the command of Dwarf Tornado and Monkey Lord, everyone was very careful for fear of damaging the crops.

The golden ears of rice were harvested, the big and thick corn was picked, a large bunch of potatoes was pulled up, and the wheat was harvested.

The sun is shining brightly.

But everyone in the fields was enthusiastic.

There was no need for Lu Yuan to even give orders. The members of the two gangs who were good at handling crops turned into conductors, teaching everyone how to harvest and what to do with the crops after harvesting.

"Oh my god, boss, this rice is perfect!!"

Some gang members who had farmed before almost dropped their mouths when they saw the vast field of golden rice and the heavy rice ears.

"This rice is much fuller than what I used to grow back home, and the yield is much higher! The boss can actually grow rice like this!!"

The gang member was shaking with excitement. Even though he had a devil tattoo on his face, the farming gene that was almost instinctive and engraved in his body was completely awakened at this moment.

"Nonsense! Big Boss is Shennong! In the future, we are going to follow Big Boss and become the masters! Work hard!"

Dwarf Tornado's old face wrinkled with laughter.

He patted his subordinate's shoulder with his rough big hand and said with a smile.

He was already imagining what kind of treatment these veteran-level subordinates would receive as Lu Yuan became more powerful in the future.

'Get a job! Become an inspector! !'

This is Dwarf Cyclone's biggest dream. As for anything beyond that? I dare not even think about it.

"Mr. Lu Yuan? You called me."

On the other side, Ansuo carefully pushed open the door of the container house.

Seeing Lu Yuan sitting cross-legged on the ground to rest, he immediately smiled happily.

When he saw Ansuo coming, Lu Yuan also laughed.

"Thank you for your hard work during this period, Ansuo."

An Suo has been really busy these days, needing to cook so much porridge every day and also serving meals to people.

Although he had the help of the Tanlang Gang for a period of time, cooking was a big job. In order to avoid accidents, such as someone with bad intentions adding something to the rice, Ansuo always insisted on cooking it himself and delivering it to people himself.

This also made An Suo very busy at work every day, while Lu Yuan had much more free time.

After saying that, Lu Yuan took out a thick envelope from his pocket.

"Here are 150,000 Longmen coins. This is your salary for the past few months. I'll be needing you again in the future."

"There's also a Longmen ID card in here. I asked Shi Huaiya to get it for you. From today on, you're an official Longmen resident and can come and go freely between the main city and the upper city."

An Suo never thought that Lu Yuan would actually give her a reward, and it was 150,000! !

The most important thing is the ID card...

An Suo was so shocked that she froze in place and didn't know what to say for a moment.

仅仅过了一会儿。

Ansuo's eyes turned red, and hot tears rolled in them. His petite and thin body couldn't help but tremble with emotion.

She did not take the money from Lu Yuan, but spoke with a sob.

"I!! I!! I don't even want Mr. Lu Yuan's salary. I'm already very satisfied with you feeding me every day!! I couldn't even imagine living like this in the past. I can sleep in warm blankets every day, eat enough, never worry about going hungry, and be respected."

"These are all brought to me by you, Mr. Lu Yuan."

“So, this money…”

An Suo was about to say something, but Lu Yuan stood up, stretched out his hand and put it on An Suo's head.

"You must accept this money."

An Suo raised his head and looked at Lu Yuan's determined eyes. He wanted to say something else, but he couldn't.

"You're my employee now, so why shouldn't I pay my employees? Besides, I'm thinking of starting a company in the future, and you'll be the president or a supervisor. What senior executive doesn't want to get paid and just eat?"

"Mr. Lu Yuan..."

An Suo stared blankly at Lu Yuan, and then a surge of warmth flowed through her body. Gratitude and other emotions merged into a thick light in her eyes, and she stared at Lu Yuan deeply.

The belief, unknown to outsiders, was engraved in the deepest part of his heart.

Seeing that Ansuo accepted it, Lu Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

"I'm giving you a new job now. Leave the cooking and serving to others. You're responsible for investigating the slums and figuring out how the residents can create their own value."

"After all, it's better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish. I only provide food, which ultimately won't really improve the current situation."

"What fish?"

An Suo was stunned, not knowing what Lu Yuan had just said.

Lu Yuan patiently explained, "There's a saying in Dayan that means it's better to teach someone how to make a living than to directly help them."

"So, I want you to investigate in the slums and find out what kind of jobs are suitable for the refugees here."

Doing anything requires on-site investigation, not just imagination.
