Chapter 213 You Seven and I Three
What Shen Yanming didn't know was that due to the sudden arrival of Unknown No. 1, the Qinghe Alliance was afraid that the doomsday news they received had changed, so they did not guide everyone.
They thought to themselves, since something happened that the dream predictor did not foresee, then is it possible that the other things the dream predictor said would not happen?
Qiu Man knew about this situation, but he couldn't say it. However, his eyes lit up after hearing what Shen Yanming did.
This was because if the Qinghe Alliance did not specify the types of crops to be cultivated, the people of Qinghua would frantically test the odds between a bumper harvest and no harvest at all. Instead of this, it would be better to follow Shen Yanming and his team and keep half of the crops.
Qiu Man was thinking about something and unconsciously walked to the edge of the field, observing the growth of other crops through the wire fence.
Shen Yanming ignored Qiu Man and bent down to add water to the sink in the chicken coop.
After filling up the water, Shen Yanming thought, since he had come out here, he couldn't return empty-handed.
So he found a corn cob that looked big and fat, and used his fingernails to gently pick a small crack. Although the corn kernels inside were not big, they were still plump and tender.
Shen Yanming broke off the corn cob without hesitation, threw it on the ground, and continued to look for edible corn cobs.
Qiu Man was originally observing the growth of plants in other fields. When he turned around, he saw Shen Yanming breaking corn cobs, and he was shocked.
"Hey, Xiao Shen, it's not harvest time yet, you can't just break them off just to eat something fresh!
Let them grow longer, maybe we can harvest a few more kilograms of corn kernels!" Qiu Man hurriedly shouted to stop Shen Yanming.
Shen Yanming did not stop what he was doing. After Qiu Man ran over, he pointed at the locusts on the leaves and said to Qiu Man, "Look, there are more and more of these insects. We can still eat some fresh ones now, but if the corn continues to grow, who knows if we can still eat them in the future."
Qiu Man didn't expect there were so many locusts on the corn leaves. He was stunned when he saw them. "When did this happen?"
"There have always been some, but this year there seem to be a lot more."
Shen Yanming thought for a while and said, "Think about it, a long drought will inevitably bring about locusts. Although Qinghua Country has not yet formed a locust plague, other places may not be the same."
After hearing this, Qiu Man widened his eyes in shock. Their senior management has been focusing on the HZ virus recently and has not noticed the changes in the fields at all. It seems that they have to go back and report quickly.
After hearing what Shen Yanming said, Qiu Man no longer needed to stop him. He also followed Shen Yanming's example and broke off a few corn cobs from the ground.
Seeing that there were more than 20 corn cobs piled on the ground, Qiu Man quickly stopped Shen Yanming and said, "That's enough, that's enough. How much can you two eat? Don't break them off all at once or they will go bad!"
Chen Yanming took a look and said with a smile: "We can keep two or three to cook, and bring the rest back to you, so that everyone can have something new to eat."
"It's not easy for you two to farm, so don't waste money. Keep it for yourselves. You don't know what will happen in the future."
Chen Yanming knew that too much is as bad as too little, so he stopped breaking the corn and said with a smile: "Okay, I have this acre of corn field, come over whenever you want to eat."
Qiu Man knew that what Shen Yanming said was just a polite remark, "You kid, I drove all the way from Dijing just to eat a few corn cobs from your house? If you are willing, just send it to me!"
Shen Yanming smiled without saying anything, bent down and picked up the corn on the ground, "It's time to go back, Qiao An should have prepared the meal."
"Okay!" Qiu Man also bent down to help, but they didn't take the bags with them when they went out, so they couldn't carry them back in one trip.
Shen Yanming simply took the trough off the chicken coop, put it on the ground, then put all the corn in it, and carried it down Qingning Mountain with Qiu Man.
The two did not go upstairs directly, but went to the underground garage. Shen Yanming only left three corns and stuffed the rest into Qiu Man's trunk.
When the two got home, Bi Qiaoan had already prepared dinner. Tonight's meal was a bit simple, and Bi Qiaoan cooked tomato and vegetable noodles for everyone.
Qiu Man didn't dislike it. After all, he ate the same thing every day. What's more, the canteen chef's cooking skills were not as good as Bi Qiaoan's.
After eating, the sun had already set outside. Qiu Man looked at the time. It was half past seven.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Qiu Man wanted to say goodbye to Shen Yanming, but Bi Qiaoan stopped Qiu Man because the corn was almost cooked.
So Qiu Man waited for a few more minutes, and only said goodbye to the two men after they finished eating the corn.
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan carried the flower pots, Qiu Man carried the suitcase, and they went downstairs.
After chatting with the two for a few words, Qiu Man drove away.
Qiu Man was driving on the deserted street with a satisfied smile on his face. Yes, he was very satisfied with his experience today.
Originally, he planned to stay in the car for a day after getting the things, but when he saw the vegetable room of Shen Yanming's house, he decided to stay in Shen's house and eat.
Hehe, fresh vegetables are delicious, and the young couple are very generous. It seems that he will have to help them clean up the mess when he returns.
Qiu Man went all the way to the capital, and a few hours later he met up with the guards who had returned from Huai City in the suburbs of the imperial capital.
After the two of them got the car back, the guard smiled and asked, "Which country did you go to? How could you bring back so much corn?"
Qiu Man smiled and distributed five or six cars to the guards. "My fellow villagers were very enthusiastic. When they heard that I was from Imperial Capital, they stuffed me into my car without saying a word. They also said that it was because of the Qinghe Alliance that they had their happy life today. Everyone wanted to thank me."
Seeing that Qiu Man still had a lot of things in his car, the guard didn't hesitate. The two exchanged a few words and then parted ways.
During this trip, even though the guard was covering for Qiu Man, Chief Alliance Officer Li did not let him know where Qiu Man went or what he did. Moreover, the surveillance along the way had also been dealt with.
The next day, Qiu Man took the things and went directly to find Chief Alliance Officer Li.
He didn't carry the suitcase over, but he carried his son's schoolbag over.
It contained coffee beans, tea leaves, rose jam and other things that Shen Yanming brought him.
However, when he was at home, he retained a small half of it.
"Leader, this is my gift to you!" Qiu Man smiled and took out most of a bottle of coffee beans and tea leaves from his schoolbag. After putting them on the desk of Chief Alliance Officer Li, he took out dried strawberries and milk curds from his schoolbag.
Chief Alliance Officer Li raised his eyebrows. "That's all? Why does it look like you took away half of it?"
Qiu Man touched his nose and laughed dryly, "Hehe, you can't let me go out and get nothing! Leader, this time the harvest will be split 30-70 between us, you 70 and I 30!"
