Bao Tielu's thinking can be said to be the inertial thinking of many people. In the past, he worked hard for the brigade and lived on those work points all year round. His life was very tight, and the whole family tightened their belts to make ends meet, with no hope.

After the household contract responsibility system was implemented, the land belonged to you, and the grain you harvested from the land was yours. After selling the grain and paying the agricultural tax, the remaining money was much more than what you could earn from work points.

If you grow your own land with more care, the crops you harvest will definitely be better.

Basically everyone has the same idea, thinking that they can get rich by farming.

That’s right and that’s not right!

After the implementation of the contract responsibility system, people's lives did become better than before, but only slightly better.

Farming is really dependent on the weather. Only with good weather can you have a good harvest. If God is not kind to you and there is drought or flood, then you will be helpless.

Jiang Yan told Bao Tielu about the situation in the next few years and concluded, "In fact, the fields of Shengli Brigade are not very good. The advantage of the plains has not been brought into play. They are scattered."

If you want to get rich by farming, it is undoubtedly difficult for the Victory Brigade unless you plant on a large scale and realize mechanization early.

"Xiao Jiang, educated youth, what do you think? You are a cultured person. If you can give Lao San some advice, he will definitely be able to live a good life."

Jiang Yan said, "Grow medicinal herbs! Isn't this obvious? Our place is the most suitable for growing medicinal herbs. The climate, humidity, and soil composition are all the most suitable for the growth of medicinal herbs. As long as you master the method of growing medicinal herbs, it is equivalent to mastering the code to wealth."

"But I don't know how to do it either?" Bao Tielu was confused. "I only know how to farm, not grow medicinal herbs."

Li Caiying said angrily, "You can learn if you don't know. Your second brother didn't know how to do breeding at first, but after reading the book given by the educated youth Xiao Jiang and getting her guidance, isn't he quite capable now?"

"That's what I want to say. Brother Bao, growing medicinal herbs can form a system, from growing herbs to preparing them, to making pills, and then making finished medicines. If you do well, you can form an industrial chain. By then, you will not only make money for yourself, but also help your fellow villagers get rich together, and become a well-known entrepreneur. That will bring honor to your family."

Bao Tielu thought about it again and again, but he couldn't imagine what the great future that Jiang Yan described would be like. He scratched his head and said, "I'm stupid, I'm afraid I can't learn it well."

"I'm not afraid of being stupid, I'm afraid of being lazy. We farmers are supposed to take care of the land, how difficult can it be to grow herbs? What was our village like in the beginning? Didn't we still grow herbs?"

Bao Zhiguo looked at Bao Tielu and said, "Listen to your sister, it won't be wrong. Just do it boldly. If the production quota is really allocated to each household, you can contract a few dozen acres of mountain and forest land to increase the benefits of the village and start a business."

Otherwise, he must be the captain! He thinks very clearly.

"Okay, I'll go to the forest tomorrow and take a look. As long as Third Brother Bao wants to learn, I'll teach you. I won't let you lose money."

The whole family laughed. Since Jiang Yan came, their negative mentality caused by Bao Zhiguo's illness seemed to have changed a lot.

The next morning, the two Bao brothers had a quick meal and went to town.

Jiang Yan slept until dawn. When she woke up, the room was quiet and no one was there.

Chang Li left her a note, asking her to go to the nursing home for dinner after she got up.

Jiang Yan had just put on her clothes when there was movement in the space. She thought about it and appeared in the space.

"Why did you come in? What's the matter?"

Si Lu reached out and pinched her nose. "You are such a heartless little thing. You didn't even bother to call home and let them know you were safe. Even a telegram would be fine."

Jiang Yan chuckled, "Time is tight and the task is heavy. It's too late. By the way, there's no one at home now. Do you want to come over and take a look?"

This house also witnessed their love.

"You moved back?" Si Lu knew Jiang Yan too well. She just started it, and Si Lu could guess what would happen next without her saying anything else.

"Yes, this house is now occupied by Chang Li and Bao Shengli. They got married here."

As they were talking, the two entered and exited the space, and Si Lu followed Jiang Yan back to the courtyard where he had been away for several years.

"It's basically the same. These cabinets and boxes are the ones you made before."

"yes."

Jiang Yan said, "It has not been used many times, it is still quite new, I guess they also think it is new, so they did not fight again."

Nowadays, it’s enough to have enough furniture and clothes, but what’s really important is to fill your stomach.

"The coal shed I built for you is still in use."

"Yeah." Jiang Yan said, "You don't know until you see it. When you recall it, there is happiness everywhere."

[Big Wheel, block this courtyard. I want to go outside with Si Lu to take a look.]

【receive. 】

"Let's go out and take a look."

The two walked into the yard together. The air in the countryside was really good. The surrounding mountains had not changed, and the surrounding houses had hardly changed. In memory, the two tall locust trees on the hill were still standing tall, and Victory Brigade was still the small village where chickens and dogs could be heard and full of vitality.

Jiang Yan and Si Lu leaned against each other. "Tell me, when we get old, will we miss this place?"

"You will definitely do that. Although you haven't been here for a long time, you have a lot of feelings for this place."

"What about you!?"

Si Lu gently pulled her hand and said, "I, where you are, my feelings are there." Isn't this an obvious thing? Still asking.

Jiang Yan chuckled, "You go back to work. I'm going to the old yard to eat. Today I not only have to see him, but also go to see the batch of medicine that grandpa planted back then."

The two returned to the house, Si Lu entered the space, and Jiang Yan packed up and went to the old courtyard.

In winter, every household stays at home because they don’t have to work. They basically only have two meals a day and eat breakfast late.

But when Jiang Yan went there, the Bao family had already had breakfast.

The rice left for her was specially placed in the steamer to keep warm.

Rice, steamed chili pepper and egg stew, and the pig-killing dish and blood sausage specially reserved for her.

Just after she finished breakfast, Bao Fang came back. She was surprised and happy to see Jiang Yan. After being happy, she became aggrieved like a child and tears fell.

"What's wrong? You're already a teacher, but you're still so crybaby. Aren't you afraid that others will laugh at you, Teacher Bao?"

After hearing what Jiang Yan said, Bao Fang burst into laughter and said, "I'm fine, I just feel uncomfortable." A hint of hesitation flashed across her eyes, but Jiang Yan saw it clearly.

"What happened? Were you bullied in town, or..."

Li Caiying kept winking at her, meaning to keep it a secret from Jiang Yan.

Bao Zhiguo was in low spirits and looked as if he had been hit hard.

Jiang Yan's tone immediately became serious, "Bao Fang, what's going on?"
