Chapter 203 The end of the universe is the exam!!
Section Chief Zhang took out the address he had prepared long ago, and fearing that Ye Zhen didn't know the details, he took out his tablet and opened it.
There are five addresses in total, most of which are not far from Ye Zhen, with good size and convenient transportation.
Ye Zhen picked the largest place with diverse terrain, including hills, gentle slopes and smaller plains. The most satisfying thing was that there was a very large lake next to it!
Ye Zhen narrowed her eyes. She had rarely been to places in this world and she had no idea where many of the places above were.
Ye Zhen looked around and after much deliberation, he chose the largest area. "Chief Zhang, I've made my choice."
"Oh! You really know how to choose. You picked a good place right away."
Section Chief Zhang smiled and praised a few times, glanced at the place Ye Zhen chose, and then said:
"This land is in Jiang Province, with abundant water resources and a suitable climate. Most importantly, the terrain is relatively diverse. There are fields, hillsides, and water sources. However, there is one thing: the land is not very fertile."
Otherwise, such a large place would have been contracted out to someone long ago.
After all, if the land is not fertile, the crops grown will not be very good. What's more, this place is too big, and the government there only agrees to lease the entire land. The investment cost is too high and it is not cost-effective. For people with such ability, can't they lease land somewhere else?
The government there was willing to mark out this piece of land for Ye Zhen to choose, and also wanted to boost the local economy. As soon as he heard that they were looking for a suitable place across the country, he prepared the topographic and climate data and submitted it early.
Ye Zhen doesn't care much about whether the fields are fertile or not. She has so many spirit stones. When the time comes, she can pour some spirit stone fertilizer on the fields to nourish them. It won't be a big deal what she grows.
Section Chief Zhang was indeed kind-hearted. Fearing that Ye Zhen didn't understand, he reminded her again: "Although this piece of land is large, it also requires a lot of investment. How about you look at other places?"
She waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter. I want this piece of land."
If as a spiritual plant master there were still lands that could not be improved, I would have stopped farming and changed my career long ago.
Section Chief Zhang stopped trying to persuade him. Thinking of the commission from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Section Chief Zhang asked tentatively:
"We have a lot of seeds that we are not sure will germinate and grow. Can you go to the Agricultural Science Academy to help once a month?"
Seeing that Ye Zhen didn't say anything, Section Chief Zhang continued to add: "Of course, as long as you grow rare plants, the state will give you a bonus and a monthly salary."
Section Chief Zhang was also afraid that people would look down on those things, but there was nothing he could do. In fact, the country has some very precious seeds in storage. Some of these seeds were dug out during archaeological excavations, some were discovered by national expeditions, and some were handed over by the public or historical relics.
Some of these seeds still have life, some are just dead branches, and some countries don't dare to plant them at all. One reason is that they never sprouted when planted before, no matter how much effort they put in, they all died. The other reason is that both the seeds and the branches reveal their extraordinary qualities, and the quantity is too small, so the countries dare not plant them rashly.
The country looked through many ancient books and classics and found that the appearance and characteristics of the branches were vaguely similar to the magical species in the books.
Ye Zhen didn't say anything else, just asked, "Is it a state-run organization?
Section Chief Zhang was overwhelmed with joy and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, the work of the Academy of Agricultural Sciences is a state-run job. If you agree, you have absolute freedom. You just need to help plant some things, and the rest is up to you."
Ye Zhen kept a calm face and nodded slowly: "I agree."
Although she cultivates immortality, in this world, the end of the universe is the examination.
She wants to join the government! She doesn't even need to take an exam!
Ye Zhen would not admit that she had to work part-time because she failed the exam, and she was free to move around, but she was just curious about what those seeds the country had.
She was admitted to this program.
"Okay, then we'll sign the contract next month. Chinese New Year is coming soon. After the Chinese New Year, I'll officially notify you to start work next year."
After the matter was settled, Section Chief Zhang didn't even have food, and left excitedly with a new batch of seeds and saplings.
Within a few days, the huanghuali and various precious tree species that Ye Zhen wanted arrived.
Not many, just one or two small seedlings of each.
Ye Zhen happily put the tree into the storage talisman and prepared to plant the tree in the afternoon.
Grandma Ye was picking lotus seeds by the pond in the yard.
Yes, these lotuses have mutated after being bathed in the spiritual energy that Ye Zhen cultivated every day. Most of the flowers have withered in the morning, and lotus pods and lotus seeds have begun to grow on them.
Ye Zhen took a look and found that it was still some time before the spirit seeds could be produced. She estimated that a lot of them would turn into spirit lotuses when they bloomed next time. However, the lotus seeds were delicious.
Grandma Ye picked up the lotus seeds, peeled off the skin, put the lotus core on a plate, and ate them one by one, relishing their sweetness.
"Ye Zi, are we going to keep these lotus seeds for seeds or pick them all to eat?"
“Pick them and eat them, and save them for seeds for the next crop.” The lotus seeds at that time were spiritual seeds, and even if they were grown without spiritual energy, they were far superior to ordinary lotus varieties.
"Old man, come and help me tick this one, yes, yes, that's the one!"
Since Ye Zhen said that the fruits could be picked, Grandma Ye immediately called Grandpa Ye for help. The two old people are now very energetic.
Ye Zhen crossed his legs and shouted with a smile: "Grandma, Grandpa, you two should take it easy."
The lotus pod is very big, and there are twelve evenly distributed lotus seeds in it. Each of them is round and plump, and a bamboo basket can be filled with them.
She carried a bamboo basket and placed it beside her, directing Grandpa Ye to get something to pack the lotus seeds.
As he sat down to peel the fruits, he said nonchalantly, "That little pool of water is nothing. We can pick them all in two or three tries."
She had no intention of destroying the flowers. The flowers were more beautiful than the lotus seeds, which were edible. When she saw a lotus flower, she would find it troublesome to pick the lotus seeds.
"Grandma, we have land to grow crops again." Ye Zhen told her about the land given by the country, and emphasized that she had a regular job!
There is a job! The first one in the Ye family!
Ye Zhen held his head high and was very proud.
Grandma Ye's eyes widened, and she hadn't reacted yet. "Oh my! How big is this field? Where is it? Should we ask someone to help open up the land so that we can plant next year?"
She was excited and proud, and after a while she exclaimed, "Is she on the payroll?"
She stood up and didn't even bother to peel the lotus seeds. She asked Grandpa Ye to go to the mountain to catch a chicken and make a lotus seed stewed chicken for lunch!
"Grandma, there's no need to be so excited."
"Why not? This is a gift from the country! What an honor! Is Ye Zi a civil servant? Our Ye family has never had an official in their family!!"
"The old Ye family is really going crazy again! No, I have to go and burn some incense!"
They came from an era of paying public grain, and no one has suffered more than their generation. It is a great honor to be able to work for the country.
"Hey! Old man, do you want to treat us to a few tables?"
"That's great!" Grandpa Ye was so happy that he didn't know what to do.
"No need, really no need." Ye Zhen was sweating and felt extremely ashamed. "Let's keep a low profile. Keep a low profile."
After a lot of persuasion, I finally managed to stop her. Grandma Ye started calling relatives and didn't stop for the entire afternoon!
"Hello? Her uncle, our Ye Zi is now on the payroll!"
"Her aunt! Great news! Our Ye Zi is working for the government! Of course, she has a government position!"
