Ye Jianqiu

The cold wind gusts, and the cold stars twinkle.

In the Red Star Hope Farm immersed in the night, hundreds of acres of vast wheat fields are blown by the strong wind, rolling like waves, and the tough wheat seedlings rise and fall in the wind, making a huge rustling sound.

In the warm, spring-like circular tent, a raging charcoal fire was ignited again in the hearth, and a large copper pot was placed on the stove. At this time, the hot water in the pot had boiled, and the siren issued a shrill siren.

Ye Jianqiu got up and came to the screaming copper pot, bent down and blocked the air vent under the stove.The copper pot immediately became quiet, only the white water vapor slowly drifting towards the vent above the tent.

He picked up the hot copper pot, filled the teacup on the table with hot water, and then put the expensive copper pot back in his hand.

I saw this pot has a unique shape, a round belly and a long neck, ears on both sides, a beast title ring, and two beasts on the shoulders. Even the latest product of the farm looks like an unearthed cultural relic.

This whistle kettle is a new product of the farm. When the water boils, the airflow passes through the gap between the reed and the lid, and an alarm sounds to prevent dry boiling. Once launched, it became very popular.It's just handmade, the process is complicated, and the price is expensive.Moreover, the workers in the technical department have obsessive-compulsive disorder, insisting on drawing simple patterns on the pot body, striving for the perfection of farm products.

Ye Jianqiu sat back on the armchair covered with thick and soft animal skin, as if falling into a warm embrace.

He patted the armrests on both sides of the chair comfortably, looked around with satisfaction, and heaved a long sigh of relief—he finally went home.

All kinds of green plants in the tent are still growing vigorously, the desktop bookshelves are wiped spotless, the books are organized in an orderly manner, the calligraphy and paintings on the wall are quiet and elegant, and the slogans and regulations are neatly arranged... Especially the calligraphy that still exudes the fragrance of ink : When the source is clean, the stream is clear; when the body is upright, the shadow is straight.The font is thick and powerful, and it looks like Mr. Jingshi's calligraphy at first glance, and the spotless hygiene in the room must have been cleaned by Mrs. Li... It feels so good to be at home!

Seeing the bowl of still warm chicken soup on the table, Ye Jianqiu smiled.

As soon as he entered the farm, he saw Mr. Jing Shi and Mrs. Li in farm uniforms digging wild vegetables in the wheat field from a distance. When Li saw him, he ran over from the wheat field with a loud cry, while Mr. Jing Shi He followed behind him in a gentle manner with a basket in his hand.

Mrs. Li was taken aback when she ran in front of him, dragged him into the tent without saying a word, pressed him on the bed without any explanation, and ordered him not to move.

Mrs. Li immediately started to cook eggs and stew chicken soup in the kitchen, and asked Mr. Jingshi to sit on the bed and watch him. The old couple told him to eat and sleep, and he was not even allowed to get out of bed!Ye Jianqiu couldn't laugh or cry, the old couple seemed to be serving him in confinement.

No, he finally got up from the bed when the night was dark and Mr. Li and Mr. Jingshi who took turns guarding him finally went to sleep.

There are too many things piled up, he has to get busy quickly.

The shop in front of the farm was about to be built, and he had to hurry up and make preparations for the shop.It's best to discuss with Cao Wu to see if you can do some work with the big merchants in Qingyang, let them invest funds to open branches on the farm, and add the farm's own shop, there will be more merchants, so that Can form a large-scale wholesale and retail market with a certain scale.

If the market takes shape, there will be a one-stop effect. Restaurants, inns, teahouses, car dealers, even escort agencies, banks, medical clinics or shoe repair shops will emerge as the times require, with broad prospects.

Seeing that he called the workers up for an emergency meeting overnight, Cao Wu, who was sitting on the side, did not scare away, but just stared at him in a daze as he talked on and on.

People say that love begins with good looks, if you fall into talent and be loyal to character, then his first card has been destroyed.Well, the second card doesn't seem to have any special brilliance. As for the third card, it doesn't have the first two cards as a base, it can only be used to praise...

— Love is wonderful, but it is only a part of life.

He didn't have time to think too much, since his abilities were gone, he had to consider other ways to farm and make money.

It is late April, and the temperature difference is still huge. It is cold in the morning and evening, and the heat of summer can be felt at noon. Some workers even can't wait to start swimming in puddles. This climate is actually not good for the growth of wheat.

If the temperature exceeds [-] degrees, the flowering period of wheat will affect the activity of pollen, the pollination rate will be low, and the output of finished grain will be greatly reduced.If the weather is severely drought and high temperature, the grain filling period of wheat will be shortened, coupled with dry and hot wind, it will affect the grain filling of wheat, and it is easy to mature prematurely.

Fortunately for him, the current batch of wheat was still planted under the condition that he had supernatural powers, and he was not afraid of the restrictions of natural conditions at present.

After this batch of wheat is harvested, he is not going to sell it as grain, but as seeds. Not only is the price high, but the farm can also be self-sufficient.The yield of wheat in this world is very low, and the plants are also very short. It is still a primitive variety that has not evolved.Once your own good-quality seeds are released, they will definitely strengthen the genes of wheat.

There is also mulberry. The silk in this world is much thinner than the silk in modern society. Just look at the plain gauze gown unearthed in Mawangdui. , silkworm babies in the present world are much fatter than silkworm babies evolved thousands of years ago, and the silk they spit out is obviously thicker and heavier. Therefore, when imitating the plain gauze gown, cultural relic experts spent a lot of effort to limit the genes of silkworm babies .

Therefore, at present, other species that are planted with supernatural powers in their own farms can save some seeds or shoots for sale.

In fact, the most troublesome thing for him is the upcoming diseases in the farmland.

He found that the wheat fields planted by the common people already had the characteristics of take-all disease, which is a serious hazard of germs.As the saying goes "one plow and one harrow, the bigger the plow".That is to say, these bacteria hidden deep in the soil will spread with deep plowing, and finally cause the wheat field to start to reduce or fail to harvest year by year.

In this world without pesticides, there are only two solutions that Ye Jianqiu can think of. First, rotate crops to other vegetables, such as cabbage or radish, but the two important crops of wheat and corn cannot be planted rashly. up.The second is that the fields can only be left uncultivated for three years, and wheat and corn can only be grown after the germs have eliminated themselves within three years.

But the second one was the last thing he wanted to see.

How did the local people deal with these problems?It seems that he has to hurry up and learn from the local old farmers.

Now that he can no longer rely on supernatural powers, he wants to put himself in the position of an ordinary person and study agricultural technology well.

After the meeting, everyone dispersed, but he still didn't rest.

Under the candlelight, he was concentrating on reading ancient agricultural books, lying on the table from time to time thinking hard, frowning and sighing, holding a self-made quill pen and dipping some ink to write and draw.Those obscure traditional Chinese characters are a headache, and they are not easy-to-understand albino. Every word and every paragraph has to be deliberated for a long time...

What is "the five trees are the first of the five wills; if you want to know the five wills, you should look at the five trees. If you choose the wood that is prosperous, you will grow more in the next year, and you will never lose one..." What "follow the weather and measure the location, you will succeed with less effort Too much. Let your feelings go back to the Tao, and you will work without gaining...", what is "five plowing and five mattresses, they must be judged to the end; the degree of deep cultivation, the shady soil will be obtained, and the grass will not grow; there will be no moths...", I God, who will help him!

Ye Jianqiu let out a long sigh and dropped the incomprehensible ancient book, rubbed his sore forehead, and lit a cigarette wearily. When he lazily leaned on the back of the chair, he suddenly sat upright.

"grown ups?"

In the night, Situ Jin was standing at the door.

I saw that Situ Jin was wearing a black night suit, black combat boots, and a long sword wrapped in black cloth on his back. The veil around his neck had faded to his chin. Serene, with sharp eyes, like a black panther walking through the night.

Suddenly seeing Situ Jin's appearance, Ye Jianqiu's heart still twitched violently. It is undeniable that this Situ Jin, who exudes strong male hormones, still turned the deepest page of his heart.

Ye Jianqiu shook his head, time, he still needs time.

——If Ye Jianqiu knew that Situ Jin had a mahogany sword on his back and a stack of black dog blood cinnabar charms in his arms, the psychotherapy time would probably be over immediately.

Situ Jin didn't speak, but walked slowly to the chair in front of the table and sat down, quietly looked at the person opposite, curled up her fingers and tapped the table lightly and rhythmically.

Situ Jin's heart is very complicated, he has been observing outside the door for a long time.

Ye Jianqiu wore a snow-white cotton nightgown with a belt of the same color, and a pair of woolen slippers on his feet. The nightgown seemed to be a bit looser... Obviously, this person changed his appearance again.

His complexion was the same as when he first entered the mansion, with dark yellow skin, thin cheeks, thin body, and white stars in his hair, as if he had aged ten years... Only those clear eyes were still as dark as before.

Situ Jin watched him sitting at the table skillfully flicking cigarette ash, pouring tea roots into the flower pot, skillfully writing with a quill pen... Various signs showed that he was indeed like a wandering spirit from another world.

But Ye Jianqiu just silently looked at the familiar stranger in front of him, and there was only one word in his mind - as if it was a lifetime away.

I used to fantasize countless times in the most difficult, helpless, and painful times that it would be great if he was there... It would be great if he was there... But after I survived these moments alone, that person finally It appeared, but he found that he didn't need it anymore.

"Why do you have gray hair?"

Situ Jin didn't want to doubt, but he couldn't help but still wondered. Could it be that, as Ye Wanzhen said, he had to drink yang energy-essence blood to change his appearance?

Ye Jianqiu smiled: "It's nothing, I just fell ill."

"Didn't you go to the medical center to see a doctor?"

"No, besides being ugly, it's okay now."

Although Ye Jianqiu spoke calmly, the bones in his body still ached faintly.

"That's good."

Ye Jianqiu said calmly: "My lord, I haven't congratulated you on your wedding."

Situ Jin didn't respond, but just stared at him closely: "Ye Jianqiu, don't you have anything to explain to me?"

Ye Jianqiu secretly smiled, shouldn't this be the question he wanted to ask?

Zhao Chun's Feixue often sent messages, and he already knew about Liang Chen's concubine.Didn't he say that he is just a singer? It's getting more and more outrageous...

He knew that Zhao Chun did all of this on purpose, but he didn't complain. It was because of Zhao Chun that he finally understood that Situ Jin was not a good match.

So he shook his head: "No."

Situ Jin pursed his lips.

Ye Jianqiu didn't want to explain anything to himself, which means he had nothing to say to himself.

Situ Jin took out a contract from his arms.

"This is your contract of sale."

"Oh."

Ye Jianqiu took the thin piece of paper, took a look at it, and burned it on the candle.

The master-servant relationship is finally over, and the relationship between the two is also cleared up.

Seeing the other party burn the deed paper casually, Situ Jin wanted to get angry again, and couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly, but he still endured it.

"Ye Jianqiu, from today onwards, you are no longer a servant of the mansion, you can stay on the farm, and no matter how much money you earn in the future, you will have your dividends."

Ye Jianqiu smiled: "You may be disappointed."

"why?"

"I don't have any powers anymore."

"what?!"

Situ Jin was taken aback.

This is what he cares about most.What's the use of a Ye Jianqiu without supernatural powers...

Because Situ Jin's expression was too obvious, Ye Jianqiu laughed, and he shook his head while laughing.

But that's all, it turned out to be nothing more than that.

Situ Jin was a little annoyed and became angry: "Ye Jianqiu, why are you so happy? Aren't you very sad that I'm married? Shouldn't you be angry when your power is gone? Why can you still laugh!"

Ye Jianqiu sighed again and again, if this Situ Jin continued, the breakup would look ugly.

He stood up, quietly looked at Situ Jin's eyes that were still shining like stars, and said, "I only wish you happiness."

It's okay to pretend to be a saint, right?No one is unwilling to listen to good words.

As expected, Situ Jin's heart softened, and he sighed: "I understand, you want to come back because you want to help me tide over the difficulties."

——I am not because of you, I am because of myself.

"I also understand that I am sorry for you, but you have to understand my difficulties."

——Sorry can only make you feel at ease, but it cannot cover up the fact that you have failed.

"Situ Jin, it's getting late, shouldn't you go back?"

Situ Jin took a deep breath, and didn't even bark at the adults, let alone Junzhi, and called him by his first name.What Uncle Jin said was indeed correct, this man was indeed proud in his bones.

But even if the other party is You Mei, he is not a ghost, and if he is going to be driven away so soon, it seems that the other party is harmless to him... But it is better to keep a distance.

Situ Jin stood up and opened his mouth to say something, Ye Jianqiu immediately interrupted: "Situ Jin, thank you!"

——Thank you for letting me love you. I have no regrets about giving my most sincere heart. Love is as precious as love.

"Situ Jin, take care."

——I wish you a cherished journey and a happy life.

"Ye Jianqiu, no matter what happens to you in the future, I will try my best to protect you."

Ye Jianqiu smiled and nodded, this is the most perfect way to break up.

Seeing Situ Jin turn around and leave without hesitation, Ye Jianqiu slowly sat back on the chair, thoughtfully lighting up the unfinished cigarette.

I completed my virgin first love with the heart of a child. The sun at sunrise used to shine on me, and the sunset also gave me the last romance. My first love like a green apple ended in such a hurry...
