Northwest, farm.

Yang Xiaotao didn't know that two people hundreds of miles away were plotting against him, nor did he know that the previously unacceptable seat belts had suddenly become something that every factory was scrambling to inquire about.

At this time, he was still supervising the planting of corn in the fields.

According to original calculations, the seeds left in the warehouse should be able to satisfy the cultivated land of ten farms, but in actual operation, Yang Xiaotao found that after this planting, there was still a surplus in the warehouse.

Especially the mother stock was much larger than planned. Originally, the planned ratio of production was three to one. In order to increase production, Yang Xiaotao directly changed it to four to one.

So much so that technicians were summoned overnight to re-modify the production plan.

Only then can the seeds in the warehouse be fully utilized.

However, as there were more seeds and more land, more manpower was needed.

The tractors don't stop for twelve hours a day, and everyone on the farm uses them. As a result, there is still a shortage of manpower, and we can only find people from other places to help.

On the edge of the farm, Yang Xiaotao was walking alone, stopping to observe the situation from time to time.

As for Mazi and Wang Hao around him, he sent them to help with the work.

Several 'apprentices' in the maintenance station were also assigned to various farms by Yang Xiaotao, euphemistically called field learning.

Before they left, Yang Xiaotao once told them, 'Be bold in demolishing and working boldly. If you can't solve the problem, come back to me.'

After receiving the care of the 'master', several people were immediately filled with high spirits and rushed everywhere with passion.

In fact, this was also the confidence that Yang Xiaotao gave them. The most fearful thing about repairing a car was that they were too timid to start.

These days, they have learned a lot about the structure of tractors, but what they lack is experience in repairing them.

As long as you dare to learn and do boldly, you can take an important step.

Walking on the dirt, the sun is blazing above my head. It is May here, but it is hotter than June in Sijiu City.

However, it is this abundant sunshine that allows the corn here to grow vigorously and the harvest is guaranteed.

"With such good sunshine, we should grow watermelons."

Thinking of watermelons, Yang Xiaotao looked around and said, "It seems that the requirements for land and temperature difference of watermelons are a bit high now."

However, thinking that two days ago, among the monthly fruits provided by the system in May, twenty kilograms of watermelon were directly given. Yang Xiaotao wanted to try it when he arrived, but time did not cope with it.

Finally, I decided to take the watermelon back to my family to try.

In any case, it is not easy to eat watermelon in this era.

Not only is there less planting, but there are also non-staple food stamps, which not every family can afford, and if a family can only eat one, they are considered a wealthy family.

Ordinary rural people simply cannot afford it.

"It's easy to grow watermelons, but it's not easy to raise seedlings."

Yang Xiaotao stepped on the ground with his head down. Watermelons are very intolerant to alkalinity, and the land where watermelons have been planted cannot be planted again within three to five years, otherwise the yield will be seriously reduced and the soil will be damaged.

The best crop for rotation is corn.

Yang Xiaotao was thinking in his mind whether he should start planting watermelons here.

For others, the most important breeding work is not difficult for him with Xiaowei here.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. Yang Xiaotao planned to go back and ask Ma Sanxing to find some watermelon seeds and plant them quickly while the weather was good.

I might be able to eat them next time I come to order the emasculation.

My thoughts were good, and my pace quickened.

"Teacher Yang, Teacher Yang."

Tata~~

The sound of horse hooves fell, and the sound followed closely.

"Mazi, what's wrong?"

Yang Xiaotao spoke calmly. He had encountered a lot of things these days and had become accustomed to not being surprised.

"Teacher Yang, it's not good, someone died."

Yang Xiaotao, who was originally calm, turned pale in an instant, "What, what's going on!"

"Go and have a look!"

As Mazi spoke, he turned the horse's head, and Yang Xiaotao jumped up from behind. The horse carried the two of them and galloped away, leaving behind a trail of smoke.

Five minutes later, the two came to a tent, where seven or eight people gathered.

Yang Xiaotao jumped off his horse, walked through the crowd in twos and twos, and looked at the middle-aged man lying on the ground.

He was very thin, like most middle-aged men of this era, with dark arms, sallow face, somewhat gray hair, eyes closed tightly, and he was unconscious.

Several people were sitting or standing around, looking sad.

"Help!"

"What are you doing standing still!"

Yang Xiaotao went over and placed his back on the man's chest. He still had a weak heartbeat and shouted to the people around him.

"Teacher Yang, I've already gone to look for him and will be here soon."

Ma Sanxing on the side spoke, and Yang Xiaotao looked at the man again, "Old Ma, what's going on? How could something happen?"

Ma Sanxing stood aside with an equally anxious look on his face.

"Teacher Yang, it's like this."

Then Ma Sanxing told what he knew.

Due to the increase in work, some manpower is needed to help, so some people are transferred from other farms.

Yang Xiaotao took into account the level of work of the farmers on the farm and reported to his superiors that adults who worked every day could each receive two steamed buns of Erhe noodles, and children with half of the labor force could receive one steamed bun.

A two-liang, sturdy steamed bun.

This kind of reward makes the farmers on the farm very motivated and they work absolutely hard.

Likewise, people who come to help also enjoy this kind of treatment.

Everyone calls the man lying on the ground Zhou Laosan, probably because he is the third eldest child in the family.

But people who are familiar with it have never seen the boss and the second child.

Zhou Laosan lives on a farm ten miles away. He has a wife and three daughters at home. He gave birth to a son a few days ago and his wife is currently confinement at home.

Life on the farm is difficult, as the family has a large population and eats a lot.

When he divided the sweet potatoes on weekdays, he would give them to the children first, and then eat the remaining sweet potatoes with the soil on them.

This time, his wife gave birth to a son for him. Zhou Laosan felt grateful in his heart and wanted to earn some food for his wife so that she could be in confinement and get better health.

So when he heard that they were given two taels of steamed buns a day, Zhou Laosan found the farm's factory, talked a lot, and finally joined the team.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! He knows that he is here because he is taken care of by the organization, so he works very hard when others are resting. He works when others are resting.

While others were working and eating, he would put away the two steamed buns, drink a lot of water, and continue working in the afternoon.

Two days ago, he returned home with steamed buns. The moment his three sensible daughters saw the steamed buns, they burst into tears. His wife even held her newborn son in her arms and wiped away her tears.

On that day, their family felt like celebrating the New Year.

Regardless of confinement, the wife got up from the kang and cooked a pot of sweet potato soup. The whole family soaked in the soup and ate steamed buns.

From then on, he didn't eat a single bite of the steamed buns given out by the farm. When he was hungry, he drank water. When he was really hungry and couldn't stand it anymore, he picked two handfuls of leaves and stuffed them into his mouth and ate them with water.

I was working on geography again today, but I fell down and fell unconscious.

Ma Sanxing said solemnly, and the people on the farm in front of Zhou Laosan lowered their heads with sadness on their faces.

"The third child is an honest man and always repays kindness. Back then, our six brothers and several other brothers starved to death. It was only because he was given a piece of cake by the troops when they passed by that he persisted until now."

"He often said that no matter how many members there are in the family, they have to support each other, so that they can be worthy of the five brothers and sisters who died and let them have future generations..."

"Lao San, you idiot, why did you..."

As the man spoke, everyone around him had tears in his eyes. Yang Xiaotao silently closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, two tears had fallen.

"Give it!"

There was a sound outside, and the crowd separated. The first person separated from the crowd to reveal the person behind.

This man was plainly dressed, thin, with a gray beard on his long face. His eyes were protruding, and his eyes were fixed on Zhou Laosan lying on the ground.

"Brother Shan, this is the man, take a look."

Ma Sanxing looked at the person coming and quickly greeted him and asked people to get out of the way.

On the side, Mazi softly introduced that this man's name was Shan Daren, who used to be a doctor.

However, I don’t have a formal medical certificate, so I can’t go to a big hospital, so I work on the farm and go out to see a doctor when necessary.

Yang Xiaotao knew clearly that this person was the doctor in this area.

Of course, there is a more resounding name, ‘Barefoot Doctor’.
