Lin Jinyue's expression was solemn: "It's not shoveling manure, it's composting. Do you understand composting? It can make the land fertile. If we nourish the land more, we can grow crops on these wastelands."
Lin Gou Dan's expression was still somewhat dazed.
Lin Jinyue continued, "Brother Gou Dan, you're the only one I can count on... I don't know who else I can turn to, but this method will definitely work."
Lin Gou Dan felt that Lin Jin Yue was definitely trying to trick him.
He asked, "What if I don't do it?"
Lin Jinyue revealed a dangerous smile: "If you don't want to do it, I'll have to go to Grandpa Lin."
Lin Gou Dan shuddered, feeling a throbbing pain in his buttocks: "I'll take it out, I'll take it out, don't go looking for my grandpa."
Following Lin Jinyue's instructions, Lin Gou Dan began composting.
Lin Jinyue wasn't quite sure if this was how she did the composting.
It wasn't that I doubted my own super memory, but I was worried that she hadn't read enough related literature beforehand and wasn't sure which one was more credible.
Fortunately, she has an incredible cheat code—the system.
The system increases the prices of items in the system store by 5% every month. Can't they just squeeze the difference out of other places?
The next day, Lin Jinyue went to check on the composting barrels every hour. When she opened the lid, the smell was extremely foul.
Even though the lid was tightly closed, there was still a faint smell wafting out.
In the past, villagers would relieve themselves anywhere in the woods without much concern for the smell.
But now that I've gotten used to the cleanliness of the village, I really can't stand the smell of these stinky things.
Lin Youcai frowned as he looked at Lin Jinyue, feeling somewhat troubled.
After thinking it over again and again, he walked up to Lin Jinyue and asked, "Er Ya, what's wrong with you? Why have you been liking these smelly things lately?"
Lin Jinyue looked at the many villagers who had gathered around, her expression indescribable.
Do they think they have a mental problem?
Lin Jinyue explained, "I'm making fertilizer."
Lin Youcai and his colleagues had never heard of fertilizer being made this way before. It smelled terrible. Could it really work?
Lin Jinyue saw their suspicious looks but didn't explain anything.
The composting process takes a long time, about twenty days, but she had already done it once a few days in advance at the farm.
Based on the flow rate in space, it can now be retrieved.
Lin Jinyue then went to the cabbage field where her family grew cabbages and said to everyone, "You'll know the benefits of this fertilizer in a few days."
She was worried that the fertilizer she had Lin Gou Dan make wouldn't be enough for them to share.
Lin Jinyue drew a design for a new toilet.
This is the style of rural toilets in the 1990s. After using the toilet, people would regularly collect the manure to make fertilizer. In addition, the manure from raising pigs and chickens could also be used for composting.
To encourage villagers to participate in composting, Lin Jinyue specially designated an experimental plot of land.
The experimental field was surrounded by a fence, and carpenter Wang even made a special sign to hang on the fence, which read "Cabbage Experimental Field" in large characters.
In the experimental field, cabbage seedlings have already sprouted.
Lin Jinyue fertilized half of the cabbage, while letting the other half grow freely.
The villagers were curious whether the fertilizer would actually work.
Seeing that there was still a large bucket left, several families said they would take it back and use it in their newly planted radish fields.
We're just waiting to see how effective this fertilizer is.

Nowadays, the villagers are extremely busy.
One group of people had already started planting fruit trees, while Wang the carpenter left a few skilled workers to build bridges, and the others continued to cultivate wasteland.
In the past few days, the villagers have done a lot of farm work, and Lin Jinyue's experience has also been increasing rapidly.
My farm, which had been stuck at level 5 for so long, is now stuck at level 5!
Lin Jinyue quickly went to check her space.
The Lin family members also went along.
I gained a lot of experience from the increase in arable land, and I leveled up to level six in no time.
[System: Congratulations, host, on leveling up to level six! You have unlocked 1 acre of land, a number of medicinal herb seeds, and a number of vegetable seeds. Please keep up the good work!]
[System: Upgrade to level 7 to unlock farm temperature control; upgrade to level 10 to begin purchasing land. Please upgrade as soon as possible.]
The first thing Lin Jinyue did was check the system shop and unlocked a lot of good things, such as Sichuan peppercorns and black pepper.
Those medicinal herb seeds are also commonly used in Lingnan.
Lin Jinyue decided to use that entire acre of land to grow medicinal herbs.
After reaching level 10, you can spend money to buy land.
Lin Jinyue wasn't worried about leveling up. They were currently farming and gaining a lot of experience every day, so leveling up wasn't too difficult.
The difficulty lies in the money to buy the land.
Over the past few days, Lin Jinyue has come to understand how stingy the system is; buying land will definitely cost a lot of money.
It seems I still need to think of more ways to make money.
This upgrade still didn't unlock potatoes and corn, but it did unlock toilet paper.
Lin Jinyue immediately bought a large bag of toilet paper, hugged it to her chest, and lay down on the grass: "My toilet paper, I've finally unlocked it! And it's my favorite brand, this paper is great!"
Then she went a step further: "It would be nice if we had wet toilet paper."
Lin Shucheng chuckled: "You have quite a lot of demands."
Lin Jinyue sat up on the lawn and looked around at the recent changes on the farm.
Digging a lake on the farm is a huge project, and it's impossible to finish it by manpower alone in a short time unless all the villagers are brought to the farm to help with the digging.
The farm has several horses, and some of the mares are already pregnant. In a while, there will be several foals.
