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

"Humph~"

Lin Yuxia no longer paid attention to Shi Huaiya and started eating her food.

It seems that the conflict between the two has arisen again.

Reality.

However, Lu Yuan could clearly feel that the thin barrier between the two of them, which was originally there and not there, and neither of them was willing to break, was gradually disintegrating at this moment.

at this time.

When Lu Yuan picked up the drink, he saw that Chen Sir, who was between the two of them, had her eyes on him at some point. The corners of her mouth, which had always been frowning, rose a little at this moment, as if she was smiling, but it made people wonder if they were seeing things.

Sir Chen raised the glass of juice in his hand and toasted Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan also immediately returned the gift.

Then the two of them drank the drinks in their cups. Sir Chen expressed her heartfelt gratitude to Lu Yuan. How could she not guess that Shi Huaiya and Lin Yuxia were here at the same time? It must be that Lu Yuan called them on purpose. He even reserved these two seats for them on purpose.

They couldn't sit too close or too far away, so they just let Sir Chen sit in the middle.

Shi Huaiya and Lin Yuxia were still arguing with each other from time to time, and Sir Chen was listening silently as the middleman. Xingxiong and Huang seemed to be a little drunk, and they stood up with their arms around each other, raised their bottles, and strolled around the fields.

Ansuo is asking Yaye about the knowledge of mineralopathy.

Dwarf Tornado and Monkey King were trembling.

Only Lu Yuan raised his head, looked at the sky that was always foggy, and the bright moon under the fog, and couldn't help but imagine the future.

This simple dinner lasted from around seven to ten in the evening.

Because I have official business tomorrow.

Sir Chen dragged Shi Huaiya and Xingxiong, who was drunk one second and sober the next, away together.

Monkey King and Dwarf Tornado stood up and left as if they had been pardoned.

Yaye and Ansuo supported the "drunk" Huang and walked towards the room.

However, Huang, who had just walked back to the room, immediately regained consciousness and showed off to Yaye with a smile how well he performed.

However, Yaye gave him a fake evaluation.

After returning from Rhodes Island, An Suo simply stopped sleeping in his original residence. Instead, after seeking Lu Yuan's consent, he slept in several container houses here at Lu Yuan's place.

Although Ansuo's condition has now stabilized.

But you still need to maintain a good work and rest schedule.

So, after talking to Lu Yuan, An Suo returned to his room, prepared to take a shower and lie down on the bed to sleep.

In a blink of an eye, Lu Yuan and Lin Yuxia were the only two people left beside the fields that were bustling just now.

"Yuxia, where are you going back to?"

"Let's go back to the main city."

"I send you."

Lin Yuxia sat in the co-pilot seat of Lu Yuan's land vehicle as usual. As the Originium engine started, the two did not say a word. Instead, they looked at the vast night sky ahead and listened to the roar of the engine under the quiet night sky.

"Did you do this on purpose today?"

Lin Yuxia supported her chin with her elbows on the edge of the window, and the car window reflected Lin Yuxia's beautiful face.

"I'm sorry for not telling you in advance, Yuxia."

Lu Yuan apologized.

Lin Yuxia didn't blame Lu Yuan, but asked.

"How did you know she would apologize? This girl has a very stubborn temper. If she had apologized earlier, our relationship wouldn't have been so stagnant for so many years."

"When I came back from Rhodes Island, I happened to ask about your past. Moreover, she expressed her deep apology to me at that time."

"Humph!"

Lin Yuxia snorted.

"This won't happen again. From now on, you are not allowed to make decisions for me without my knowledge. Otherwise... I will be angry."

Her voice was cold and even contained a hint of warning.

however.

The face reflected in the passenger window was filled with a deep smile.

soon.

The vehicle arrives at the candy store.

Lin Yuxia asked before getting off the car.

"You haven't answered me yet? Do you want to take the position of consultant?"

"Of course I do."

Lu Yuan didn't think twice.

Then he smiled.

"These days, who wouldn't want to get a job in the government? Besides, my boss is you, Yuxia. From now on, our relationship will have an additional layer between partners and friends, and we will become superiors and subordinates. Does this mean that our relationship will become more diverse?"

“I’m leaving…”

Lin Yuxia did not answer Lu Yuan's words, but turned around, at an angle where Lu Yuan could not see her, with a faint smile on her lips, she pushed the door and entered the candy store.

Lu Yuan watched Lin Yuxia leave, then turned around and returned to the fields.

Just returned to the room.

The cell phone rang.

I picked it up and saw that it was a message from Shi Huaiya.

"Thank you so much today, Xiao Yuan."

Lu Yuan smiled and started typing: "I made the decision without authorization, aren't you angry?"

"Why should I be angry? Xiao Yuan, you did this for my own good. I'm so happy, how could I possibly be angry? In fact, even when I think about it now, I can't believe I would have taken the initiative to apologize to the stinky rat. Maybe it was your encouragement, Xiao Yuan, that played a role."

"Anyway~Thank you~ (smiley face)"

"But! Then again!! There's one thing that really upsets me! That stinky rat is actually going to be your colleague, Xiao Yuan! And he's even your boss!"

"Hahaha~"

Lu Yuan looked at the message sent by Shi Huaiya and couldn't help laughing. It was still the lovely Shi Huaiya.

........

Commander Wei allocated 30,000 acres to Lu Yuan, which was equivalent to Shi Huaiya's family investing 10,000 acres in Lu Yuan.

The total area is 40,000 acres.

Three days later, Shi Huaiya asked Lu Yuan to come to the Guard Bureau, and held a meeting in the small conference room of the Guard Bureau in the presence of several senior police superintendents, with the result already known. They went through the process, and at the end of the meeting, Lu Yuan signed the contract, and then signed the contract given by Shi Huaiya's family.

The moment I signed.

A line of reminders appeared in front of Lu Yuan.

[Congratulations, the fields you own can be refreshed]

Lu Yuan opened the system panel and clicked refresh next to the miniature farmland map on the homepage. Then, he saw that the miniature map continued to expand outward.

The 10,610 acres of farmland that now occupied the entire map were shrinking smaller and smaller, and finally shrunk to the corner of the entire small map. Most of the map area was replaced by the additional 40,000 acres.

Total farmland: 50,610 mu

Lu Yuan also read the contract.

The 58 acres given by the Guard Bureau are concentrated in Block 106, which is still some distance away from the slums. The land donated by the Shi Huaiya family is in Block , which is closer to the slums.

In addition, at the meeting, Sir Chen, on behalf of the Guard Bureau, awarded Lu Yuan an employment certificate as a crop consultant for Longmen Grain Group.

Since Longmen Grain Group has just been established, there is no work yet.

However, Lu Yuan's position is that of an external expert, so he does not need to clock in for work every day. He only needs to provide technical support during normal times.

but.

It is normal to look for Lu Yuan. After all, there is really no one in the entire Longmen who is better than Lu Yuan in agriculture.

On the way back to the slums from the Guards Bureau.

Lu Yuan made a rough calculation.

If 10,000 mu of land is planted entirely with ordinary rice, with two harvests a year, it can feed about 30,000 people. If a little conservation is done, it will be no problem to double the amount and feed 60,000 to 70,000 people.

But what he is using now is the new 'All-Season Proliferation Rice III' that he has cultivated himself. Not only can it be planted throughout the season, but the yield is also increased by 50%.

This represents.

If planted on Lu Yuan's own land, it can almost guarantee four harvests a year, and the yield is 50% higher than that of ordinary rice.

and so.

Lu Yuan's 10,000 acres of rice can feed more than 100,000 people. If they save some money and distribute the porridge to each person according to their needs, it will be no problem to feed 200,000 people.

Lu Yuan now owns a total of 50,000 acres. If it is used to grow rice, under normal circumstances, it can feed more than 500,000 or even 600,000 people.

Currently, Longmen has a total population of 750 million, and the total population of slums is over one million.

and so.

If Lu Yuan only grows rice, he can basically feed more than half of the people in the slums.

But is it possible?

Even if he had the ability and the means, Lu Yuan would not really do it.

If you take too big a step at once, your crotch will be pulled.

and.

As Lu Yuan gradually developed the slums, he increasingly found that his pursuit was also constantly improving.

Before, he just wanted to feed the hungry people, but then Lu Yuan gradually wanted everyone to eat well and live well.

Staple food is only a part of people's diet. In addition, there are a variety of other indispensable crops, such as oil crops, vegetable crops, fruit crops, medicinal crops and so on.

On the way back to the slums.

Lu Yuan also had a new plan in his heart.

.........

In the upper city, Sky Manor, inside a courtyard of a luxurious manor covering an area of 20 acres.

In the center of the small hill on the west side of the manor, stands a small pavilion in the Yan style, which is completely hand-carved from extremely rare and expensive stones.

Under the pavilion, more than twenty hand-woven bamboo sofas are evenly placed.

The bamboo used is a very scarce material in Yan State. Craftsmen with excellent skills spend several months weaving it. Just one such sofa is enough to sell for one hundred thousand in the upper-class market, and there are more than twenty such sofas.

It fully demonstrates the wealth and luxury of the manor owner.

People of all shapes and sizes, but with surprisingly similar temperaments, sat on the sofa in different postures, some leaning lazily, some sitting upright...

"Have you heard? The Imperial Guard is about to establish a Longmen Grain Group..."

One of the middle-aged men said this with a slightly teasing and joking tone.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone answered immediately with a very unhappy tone.

"Of course I heard about it. Longmen has developed a lot of land this time, and it's all run by the Guard Bureau. Hum..."

A young capital tycoon who looked young thought for a moment and said.

"The land itself is Longmen's own asset. It's fine for Longmen to operate it on its own. After all, the drama directed and performed by that old man from the Jialiang Group may have made Longmen realize something."

However, what was greeted was indeed a harsh rejection, disappointment in Longmen, and worry about the future.

"Longmen is now daring to self-own agriculture and seize market share from many of us. Then, what about other industries in the future? Slowly, Longmen may eat away most of the highly profitable industries, and then we will just follow in Jialiang's footsteps."

The person who was speaking was an old man. As he held a high position, he adopted the most expensive and luxurious maintenance methods for his daily care. As a result, he is now over 80 years old, but there are no wrinkles on his skin, and he looks only in his 60s.

The old man slowly sat up from the sofa, holding a diamond-studded cane. He was the owner of this manor and the initiator of this meeting.
