The vast Barren Land had been exposed to the scorching sun for three days and nights. The brown earth had turned gray once more. However, this time was different; it was a reclaimed gray!
After several days of relentless sun, a significant number of bacteria in the soil had been killed. Chen Xuan had taken the first step in reclaiming the land. Next, he needed to introduce microorganisms, apply fertilizer, and then scatter seeds of cover crops to restore biodiversity and rejuvenate this Barren Land.
It was a long process that would take at least half a month. To facilitate this, Chen Xuan brought an electric rice cooker from home to the wooden cabin, aiming to reduce travel time and fully immerse himself in the reclamation work. Additionally, it was a way to avoid Chen Dayong.
Ever since their last drinking session, where Chen Dayong had shown his lack of restraint, he had been lurking at the village entrance every day, waiting for Chen Xuan to join him for another drink. Chen Xuan had an average tolerance for alcohol, while Chen Dayong had an exceptionally poor one. Each time they drank together, it ended with Dayong vomiting and patting his chest, insisting that Chen Xuan take good care of him and prioritize him for any future products.
After hearing Dayong's incessant rambling, Chen Xuan's face would turn pale at the sight of him these past few days. He would quickly steer clear, avoiding any trace of his presence, eventually hiding out in the watermelon field.
After several days of exposure, Chen Xuan personally made a trip to Changfeng County, where he purchased over a hundred thousand worth of top-quality fertilizer and grass seeds to transport back to the Farm. When the fertilizer seller learned that Chen Xuan had over four acres of Barren Land to reclaim, he eagerly recommended his company's fertilizing machinery. However, Chen Xuan promptly declined.
What a joke! No machine could compare to Dali Niu Mo's effectiveness!
Once the fertilizer and grass seeds arrived at the Farm, on a pleasant afternoon, Dali Niu Mo and Jin Xiong were back in action. Jin Xiong’s method was straightforward and forceful.
He carried a bag of fertilizer on each shoulder and made his way to the center of a plot of land.
Tearing open the fertilizer bags, he grabbed one in each hand. With a swift motion of his left hand, he flung the fifty-pound bag directly at the center of Jin Xiong, perfectly scattering it across the land. When it landed, it covered the entire plot just right. His right hand followed suit, and both bags were spread evenly without a single miscalculation.
Watching this explosive efficiency left Chen Xuan dumbfounded! At that moment, he finally believed that Jin Xiong had single-handedly managed to fertilize the four acres of Barren Land overnight!
Following suit, just a day later, the remaining four acres were also fertilized. Seizing the opportunity, Chen Xuan immediately scattered the hard-earned grass seeds into the Barren Land on the following day.
Fortune smiled upon him as light rain began to fall that night. By the time Chen Xuan woke up the next morning, the vast Barren Land was thoroughly moistened!
It was perfect! Chen Xuan excitedly squatted on the edge of the field, eagerly anticipating the moment when the grass seeds would sprout! The fertilizer was top-notch, and the grass seeds were resilient Ryegrass seeds. In no more than five days, he could expect to see the first hints of green emerging.
Five days later, Barren Land was about to transform dramatically! Every time he thought about it, Chen Xuan felt an overwhelming excitement and couldn’t help but start planning his next steps!
During this time, Chen Dayong and Wang Xiong came by several times to haul watermelons from the field, contributing tens of thousands to Chen Xuan along the way. They couldn’t help but notice the changes in Barren Land. They assumed that Chen Xuan had hired a construction team for the work and paid little attention to the rapid transformation taking place in such a short time.
Upon hearing a few scattered words from Chen Xuan about the plans for the Barren Land, everyone began to have their own thoughts.
