"The climate here is more like the tropics, with three crops a year. So we both have to quietly farm here and we can't leave the land idle."
Su He asked again, "Is this place as big as the Earth? Do we need to slowly reclaim more land?"
"No, it's quite small, much smaller than the moon. We can't cultivate all of it. There are about 100 acres here, and we'll just plant these. I don't know much about this place, and I don't have enough time. I haven't figured out its entire cycle yet. If we rashly cultivate it, it might damage the ecology here."
She vaguely knew that under normal cultivation, one acre of land could produce three to five hundred kilograms of wheat, and since there was no hybrid rice yet, it could only produce a few kilograms.
By this calculation, these 100 acres of land can produce tens of thousands of kilograms of grain in one season.
Seeing her starry eyes, Jin Weiguo knew what she was thinking: "Tens of thousands of kilograms of food sounds like a lot, but for our family of five, we don't know what we'll encounter in other worlds. So the more of these, the better."
Su He: "Even if we go to another world, isn't this your secret garden? Can't we come here later?"
"You can come. We need to prepare for the worst. If anything goes wrong, we must make every possible preparation."
Anyway, apart from secretly farming with the boss, Su He also collected steel.
When it was time to talk, she called her hometown again.
At first, it was Su Xiaodi who answered the phone. After a few words, Su Hong took over.
Su He was on the phone at Yuan's house. Mrs. Yuan had gone to see Teacher Wu on the pretext of something else. With no one else around, she spoke directly, "Have you figured it out yourself, or do you have any other ideas? Are you free to tell me?"
Su Hong hummed, then continued, "There's nothing inconvenient to say. I really have figured it out."
"Sister, I once dreamed that a wealthy family was temporarily in trouble, so I thought of taking advantage of it. Later, my family also opposed it. Besides, if I don't have the virtue to be in the position, relying on favors alone will definitely not work. So I thought, I'll find someone who shares the same ideals."
Su He thought for a moment and guessed, "Did you find an educated youth?"
Su Hong said yes.
Su He knew that if the educated youth returned to the city and married his sister in the countryside, they would have only one way to return to the city in the future: to take the college entrance examination.
Su He: "What's my future brother-in-law like? Where is he from? Is he a good student? I guess you should pay attention to this person's academic performance, right?"
Su Hong was a bit unhappy, and her voice softened a bit. "He's a Wuzimin. He's from the city, working in the Shangzhuang brigade next door. He graduated from high school, but didn't get a job, so he had to go to the countryside. I asked him for math help, and he knew it all."
When Su He heard this, he knew that his sister must really like this man. In that case, the two of them still have a future.
She simply explained, "Classes have recently resumed, and it's not summer vacation yet, so Damao is also in school. I'll send you some money and tickets, and you can buy them yourself."
"Sister, keep it for yourself. Medical treatment and medicine don't cost money, right? Don't keep your old habits and make me look down on you. We... those seafood... we can't do without!"
Hearing Su Hong start to speak evasively, Su He knew that there might be outsiders there, and it would be inconvenient to talk. Phone calls were expensive, so it would be enough to just know the key information. So he quickly said a few words and hung up.
She found some time and bought two pieces of cloth from the Star Mall, one bright red and one black.
Taking two pieces of cloth and twenty yuan, Su He went to the post office and sent them back to his hometown.
