My consciousness returned to the riverbank, feeling the solid ground beneath my feet.
Jiang Chan immediately looked toward the corner of the system space—several bulging seed bags with different labels were floating there.
A mixed package of abundant wheat, abundant rice seeds, and abundant fast-growing fruits and vegetables!
It's done!
Without taking a break, she immediately took out the seeds.
He then jumped onto the intelligent land clearing/sowing machine, which roared as it rushed towards the wilderness further out at the edge of the wasteland! The sharp plowshare, like the fangs of a giant beast, easily tore through the tough turf and shrub roots.
The fertile black soil was turned over, exuding the earthy aroma under the sunlight. The seeding device followed closely behind, precisely planting each seed at the appropriate depth.
Wherever the iron ox passed, the wasteland was like a tamed beast, quickly shedding its wildness and revealing neat cultivated strips.
Two days!
Amid the tireless roar of the tractor, nearly ten acres of flat land were reclaimed from the original two acres of land!
All the "Abundant Harvest" series seeds were sown into the soil!
Looking at the vast, completely transformed fields before her, Jiang Chan jumped out of the driver's seat. Sweat soaked her back, but she felt a violent, exhilarating sense of satisfaction!
Expanding territory! This efficiency is ten thousand times better than the scavenging teams in the apocalypse! The crowd was overwhelmed with excitement as they looked at the new fields stretching out and radiating hope, their eyes fixed on Jiang Chan as if she were a true creator god.
The seeds were sown, and the tractor was stored away. The following days were filled with anxious waiting. Although the instructions stated that the "Abundant Harvest" series had shortened the cycle, even at its fastest, wheat would take thirty days, rice forty days, and vegetables and fruits would take at least ten days to half a month to see initial results.
Jiang Chan's anxiety returned, even more intensely than before! Every day, she would run to the edge of the field countless times, squat on the ridge, and stare intently at the bare ground, as if trying to force the seeds out of the soil with her willpower.
"Why is there still no movement..."
"How fast is this 'fast growth'?"
"Is the water...enough? Is the sun too strong?"
The food and meat in her storage space were being consumed far faster than expected. With over a dozen mouths to feed, the fear of running out of food loomed over her like a shadow. She desperately needed to see the hope of greenery!
We need the next mission to bring something even more incredible!
That evening, Jiang Chan squatted by the edge of the field again, frowning as she looked at the still land.
Others were also gathered nearby, hoping for the sprouts to appear, but none were as anxious as she was.
“Water…” Jiang Chan stared at the damp soil in the field that had just been irrigated, muttering to herself, “Relying solely on the river for water… what if the river dries up? If only… if only we could pump water directly from underground…”
"Dig a well!" she shouted, standing up abruptly.
The crowd was startled and looked at her in confusion.
"Drill a well? Young lady...you mean...drill a well here?"
Old Sun thought he had misheard. In this desolate wilderness, without any tools, digging a well? Wasn't that a pipe dream?
“Yes! Drill a well!” Jiang Chan’s eyes shone brightly as she pointed to the ground. “Water source detector… uh… I mean, I feel there’s water down there! It’s only in very deep places. If we drill a well, we won’t have to worry about water anymore!”
“Fairy Maiden…Miss Jiang, this…” A man scratched his head, looking troubled. “We…we don’t have any tools! What are we going to use to fight? Dig slowly with hoes? That won’t do!”
"Yes, yes...they can't even dig through the rocks..."
“In the past, when digging a well in the village, you had to hire a special craftsman and use a drill bit made of good iron…”
The crowd echoed, all thinking that Jiang Chan's idea was too outrageous, simply a pipe dream.
Just then, Chen Yan walked over. He heard Jiang Chan's words and saw the familiar yet strange, almost obsessive, hopeful light in her eyes.
He recalled that after she mentioned "immortal seed" last time, she actually took out "immortal seed"... Could it be...? A thought flashed through Chen Yan's mind like lightning:
Could it be... that her "muttering" is some kind of secret method for communicating with heaven and earth? As long as she strongly desires and expresses it, "heaven" will respond and bestow divine gifts?
Although this idea is absurd, considering the various miracles that have occurred before... it seems to be the only reasonable explanation!
Chen Yan's heart skipped a beat! He took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and forced a serious expression onto his face. He strode to Jiang Chan's side and said loudly to everyone, "Miss Jiang is right! There is abundant underground water here! Digging a well is imperative!"
crowd:"???"
Everyone was staring at Chen Yan as if he were crazy!
Old Man Sun grew anxious: "Brother Chen! You! You're coming too... This is the middle of nowhere, we don't have any equipment, why are you digging a well! Isn't this just wasting time!"
Chen Yan, however, remained unusually firm, even displaying a look of deep agreement: "Old Master Sun, you are mistaken! Miss Jiang is... an extraordinary person; how could her intuition be wrong? She said there is water underground, so there must be water! As for the tools..."
He paused, then looked at Jiang Chan, his eyes filled with encouragement and a subtle hint: "Since Miss Jiang has brought this up, there must be a deeper meaning! Perhaps... the mysteries of immortality have their own solution? We just need to wait for good news!"
He pronounced the four words "waiting for good news" with exceptional clarity.
Jiang Chan: "..."
She looked at Chen Yan's serious-sounding nonsense, and then at the villagers' expressions that said, "You two are crazy," and her lips twitched.
This guy... is cooperating with her "summoning" mission?! Although the method is clumsy and awkward, I appreciate the sentiment!
