Chapter 528: 528. Chatting on the Road_1
Tai Xiaodong, a well-known graduate student from a prestigious agricultural university, might not have been extrely knowledgeable, but the sheer amount of exams he had taken since childhood, if connected end to end, could circle Optimum Joy three thousand tis!
However, at this mont, he finally understood what it ant to “realize the lack of knowledge when it’s ti to apply it”—
“F*ck, f*ck, f*ck! Why is it so delicious!!!” Like a desperate illiterate, that was all he could think about.
Even Professor Song nodded silently…
And in the front row, Yan Ran was savoring the peach in her mouth before she turned her head and earnestly exclaid, “Teacher, it was really a great idea to co here!”
You should know that the call had gone through various channels before reaching Professor Song. He initially thought it was so wealthy family trying to gain political mileage for their young ones, thus wanting to put on a show—rural revitalization, scientific developnt, and his title should be prestigious enough for that.
Invited to make a plan, followed by so news like “College student entrepreneurs earn 8 million a year”…
So, initially, Professor Song refused.
But turning to look at his three students—he knew their future in agriculture wasn’t very promising; not only did they need to know how to farm, they also had to know how to persuade others.
To persuade farrs and entrepreneurs below, and leaders and funders above…
All in all, they needed to experience a little bit of everything.
Even a performance like this in an obscure village was sothing they should understand.
Professor Song hesitated, but in the end, he agreed.
On the high-speed train, he had seriously prepared his three students ntally. But he never would have imagined that this family really had so skills!
Such delicious peaches…
“What variety is this?” He held the remaining peach, utterly unwilling to eat it anymore, but still unable to resist the temptation, so he could only hold it in front of himself and look it over:
“Looking at these characteristics, it clearly seems to be an ordinary Eagle Beak Peach with sufficient sunlight and growing conditions, which is why it can reach such perfect quality… But the soil and climate in Yun City… aren’t right… And this peach, it must not just be the variety that’s special…”
In their profession, not to ntion the variety developed outside, they ate too many varieties cultivated annually in their own institute. But they had never encountered anything this tasty!
At that mont, all four teacher and students were intrigued, and even Qi Lin ate the peach quietly, curiously saying, “Boss Song, if all your family’s peaches are of this standard, to be honest, there’s no need for any planning—just plant peaches. There will absolutely be no problem maximizing profits.”
Song Tan laughed—this boy with a birthmark on his temple sure had a way with words!
Doesn’t nearly everyone who farms do so hoping for a profit?
But…
“Not to hide it from anyone, everything from my family tastes good, so no matter what we plant, we should be able to make money.”
“The main purpose of Bags Mountain is to enrich our family’s nu, so this ti for planning, it doesn’t need to be too profitable. We just need a variety of crops that are easy to manage.”
In fact, if it weren’t for the fear of suspicion later on, she really could just haphazardly plant a ssy mix of crops.
But for now, the villagers haven’t tasted anything from her family’s produce, which is why they’ve managed to keep silent. However, once they scale up, more and more people will inevitably beco involved.
Inviting a famous Imperial City professor could at least lead others to draw seven or eight conclusions on their own.
Moreover, having professionals do the planning would guarantee the convenience of later managent and the scientific promotion of fruit growth…
Song Tan’s ntal calculations were clicking away.
But Professor Song was already visibly excited:
“Why didn’t you say so earlier?!”
“If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have taken that project in the first half of the year and would have just stayed with them from the ti the peach trees blossod to observe closely!”
Song Tan felt a stir in her heart.
After a while, she asked, “Actually, if you’re willing, you can stay and watch over the mountain land reclamation and planting too—but we don’t have a place to stay at my ho. We could arrange for everyone to stay with the locals. Do you guys have any requests?”
When it ca to accommodation, their mindset changed again. Tai Xiaodong waved his hand, looking aggrieved, “As long as the ground is flat, I have no other requirents.”
Before, when his research project was about to conclude, he slept in the experintal field every day!
“The hard clods of earth bruised
so badly that there wasn’t a day I wasn’t in pain!”
Tai Xiaodong spoke resentfully.
Song Tan was shocked, “Is agricultural work this tough?”
“Not really,” Tai Xiaodong waved his hand, “My experintal field was next to the road, and I was afraid soone would take advantage and ruin my paper, so I kept watch. Qi Lin had it worse! He didn’t draw a good plot, and the only one left was next to the Animal Husbandry Institute. With green wheat seedlings on this side and baaing sheep on that side, imagine how scared he was, haha…”
As he talked, he beca animated and vividly expressive, quite infectious.
Imagining the scenario, Song Tan also found it quite funny.
Professor Song, however, couldn’t resist continuing to eat peaches, becoming more earnest with each bite, “We’re all used to it, don’t arrange for us to stay with locals. We can even manage sleeping on the floor in this weather.”
“We have prepared foam boards, or else, Boss Song, you could take us to buy so wire cots.”
Song Tan: …It really doesn’t have to be that hard.
She sighed, “If you don’t mind, my ho does have an empty room. I can go get a few old beds, lay out so straw mats, and you can make do lying on those for now.”
Not having had the heart to throw away those beds (actually, it was because she couldn’t stand Wu Lan’s nagging) was truly the wisest decision.
“There are bed boards and straw mats!”
The two young n were already excited beyond belief, “That’s perfect!”
Seeing their excited look, Song Tan couldn’t help feeling a strange mixture of amusent and a little guilt, like a stingy landlord.
The three n were easy to accommodate, but Yan Ran was different, being the only female…
Song Tan thought for a mont, “Yan Ran, if you don’t mind, Aunt Lianhua who helps at our house, her household consists of just her and her mother-in-law. You could stay with her.”
A couple hundred yuan per month would be more than enough if she stayed every day.
As a female, Yan Ran was more cautious about sleeping on the floor. She had prepared two extra layers of foam board, ready to be shipped over as soon as everything was set up.
But now, having a proper room, of course, was even better.
At this mont, she was sitting in the passenger seat, stealing glances at Song Tan, holding back her curiosity until she couldn’t anymore, “Does your family hire workers to do all the work? What do you use for sun protection? Physical sunblock or so kind of sunscreen? Could you recomnd one to ?”
Song Tan: …
She could only answer truthfully, “We’ve hired workers, but my family also does so work, my dad and mom can’t stay idle.”
“And there aren’t enough people in the village.”
As for hiring from the neighboring village… Forget it. If there aren’t enough people in our own village, would the neighboring village be so wealthy village with a surplus of labor?
It’s all the sa.
“Also, about sun protection… I was born with this skin; I haven’t done much to protect against the sun.”
