Hearing this, Su Nian asked curiously, "What if someone changes the position of the sign?"
The man did not answer immediately, but turned around and led them back.
When they came here before, they passed by two rooms, but no one took it seriously at the time.
Now I followed the man into the house and found that it was actually a simple office.
There is a large display screen hanging on the wall, showing small red, green and yellow grids, each with a number.
After taking a look, Su Nian understood.
These small squares should be the experimental fields outside.
The man also spoke at this time, "Take out your ID cards."
Su Nian and the other two took out their ID cards and the man took them and swiped them.
The experimental fields No. 88 to No. 91, which were originally green, instantly turned red.
"It has been recorded. Don't find fault with it, so that others won't reap the fruits of your labor."
The man said, handing the ID card back.
"You can also get three tools. You can choose what you want to use."
There were not many kinds of tools, so the three people each picked one and asked for three backpacks.
Carrying a backpack and a hoe, he walked on the path in the field.
Suddenly I felt like an old farmer.
After walking forward for a long time, we finally found Site 88.
One acre of land is 666 square meters.
If you use a tiller to till an acre of land, it will only take 20 to 30 minutes.
But turning the soil requires manual labor, and even a strong laborer may not be able to finish it in a whole day.
This workload is quite large.
Standing on Ground 88, Su Nian stepped hard. The ground was very hard, almost as hard as the concrete ground.
Wu Yue, who had not spoken a word all the way, walked in, held the hoe in both hands, and swung it hard on the ground.
With one hoe strike, dirt flew everywhere.
Just hearing that voice, Su Nian felt his teeth ache, and hurriedly called out to Wu Yue, "Don't turn over."
Wu Yue straightened up and looked at Su Nian in confusion, "Not turning over? Then how can we stay?"
"I said we won't flip it, I didn't say we won't flip it."
Wu Yue's brows were knitted together, "Should I turn it over or not?"
Looking at Wu Yue's puzzled expression, Su Nian smiled and said, "You are still very cute when you don't know anything. Let's go!"
"Leave? Where to?"
Wu Yue was still asking when she saw Su Nian and Jing Mo walking back the way they came.
I walked all the way back and just as I reached the door of the office, I saw the man walking out.
The man was not surprised or puzzled when he saw Su Nian and the other two. "Why are you back again? Are your tools not handy?"
Jing Mo walked forward with a smile, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed over one, "Yeah, the tools are not handy, I want to ask you to help me find some handy tools."
The index and middle fingers of the man's right hand were yellow, and it was obvious that he was a heavy smoker.
When the man saw the cigarette, his eyes lit up instantly. He took it and put it to his nose, sniffing it carefully from beginning to end twice, then slowly opened his eyes.
“There is a way to turn the soil.
The three acres of land can be roughly turned over in more than an hour using a tiller.
As for the gravel, grass roots and other things inside, if it were just the three of you, you wouldn't be able to pick them all up even if your backs broke.
But if a hundred or so people were to do it, they would definitely pick it up completely in two hours. Not only that, they would even break the larger clods of soil into pieces.”
Wu Yue was puzzled, "Where can we find the tiller and so many people?"
"The rental fee for a tiller is two kilograms of grain per hour. I will till the three mu of land for you and give you three kilograms of grain.
As for people, there is a team dedicated to this.
One mu of land requires two kilograms of grain, but three mu of land only requires six kilograms of grain."
Wu Yue suddenly realized, "So they said that if we work for three days, we can stay in the base and they won't take our supplies. Actually--"
Before Wu Yue could finish her words, Su Nian covered her mouth.
It's better to see through this kind of thing but not speak out. It will not benefit anyone if you do.
The man looked at Su Nian with appreciation, "There is one thing you all know, if you can't lead a team, you can only work yourself to death.
If you have this intention, I can help you contact them.
If you don’t have this intention, haha…”
The man didn't continue speaking, but Su Nian already understood what he was not saying.
If you don't have this intention, you can only work yourself to death.
"Yes!" Jing Mo made the final decision, "Of course we have this intention! Otherwise we wouldn't come to you, brother! We'll go back to the car to get food, brother, please help make the contact first."
"Sure, sure."
Jing Mo looked at Su Nian and said, "Go get the food from the car. I'll wait here."
Su Nian agreed and pulled Wu Yue towards the parking lot.
After walking for a distance, Wu Yue spoke up, "The rule of this base is that you can get a permanent ID card after working for three days. The assigned work must be completed in three days, otherwise how can you stay here?
The work that guy just assigned to us cannot be completed in three days, let alone one day. He did it on purpose!"
Seeing Wu Yue's cheeks puffed up with anger, Su Nian nodded, "Yes, he did it on purpose.
Every policy from the top has its countermeasures from the bottom.
The people above may not know about this, but as long as no one talks about it, they won’t care.”
"Why?"
“Because it has boosted development! We rented cars and the rent we paid supported the drivers.
We hired people and paid them commissions to support them.
All of this has reduced the pressure on the base, and the base is happy to see it happen, so why would they care? "
After Su Nian finished explaining, he saw that Wu Yue was still angry and obviously very dissatisfied with this.
You know what, Wu Yue still looks kind of cute like this.
"Okay, don't be angry."
Su Nian said as he opened the car door and got in. After seeing Wu Yue also got in, he added, "Things that can be solved with food are not a problem."
She doesn't have much else, but she has plenty of food.
Su Nian took out some food, but it was not the food he bought before the end of the world. Instead, he bought it from the grain store in the third base when he opened the store.
There were two cloth bags, one containing three pounds of sweet potato flour and the other containing six pounds of sorghum flour.
These flours are not ground finely enough, and there are some tiny particles in them, but it is harmless and no one will mind it nowadays.
If Su Nian took out the finely ground flour with nothing in it, it would seem strange.
Not only will they find it strange, they may even treat them as suckers.
Seeing Su Nian take out the food, Wu Yue puffed up her cheeks and said, "Although you explained it very clearly and I think it makes sense, I am still a little angry."
ps:
The previous chapter made some changes, changing the number of acres of land to be plowed from six acres to three acres. Just know this and there is no need to look back specifically.
