"The greenhouse is big. These are eight varieties of vegetables that we selected. The cabbages and radishes planted outside have already grown and can be harvested before winter. Let's plant these and see if they can grow as well as the ones outside."
Yang Yufen looked at the ingredients and saw that besides these two, there were also spinach, cilantro, scallions, rapeseed, garland chrysanthemum, and chives.
The chives were planted directly from the chive roots that were dug up; they're already planted. There are quite a few varieties like this.
"Once this batch of vegetables is planted, we'll harvest a batch of white-feathered chickens at the end of the year. We'll stop for two months to disinfect the chicken coop and also calculate the profits from this year's white-feathered chicken sales."
"No problem, we'll keep some for the New Year's bonus. How about one white-feathered chicken for each person?"
Yang Yufen discussed it with Aunt Wang.
"Sure, these chickens don't lay as many eggs when it gets cold, so we can only supply just enough."
"Forget about the eggs. We'll catch fish at the end of the year. If we have a lot, we'll sell some. If not, we'll just use them ourselves."
"Speaking of fish, there's something I want to discuss with you. Director Zhou brought a group of people over a few days ago. They're researching fish farming and want to rent a pond. The pond we dug is large, which perfectly meets their needs."
"How do you rent it?"
Yang Yufen never expected that since they had rented the land, someone else would rent it from them again.
"The pond is large and divided into four sections. We'll keep one section for irrigation in case of drought, and rent the others for three years at three hundred yuan a year. They say they're researching fish that grow quickly, have few bones, and have a lot of meat. If it turns out well, we'll raise some ourselves."
"That's not bad either."
Yang Yufen nodded in agreement.
"They will come to use the fishpond after we fill it with water and harvest the lotus roots this year."
Actually, the surrounding land belongs to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, but since they happened to have a pond that had already been dug, Director Zhou decided to bring people over to inquire.
Yang Yufen agreed, and Director Zhou arrived with his team at lightning speed, signing a three-year contract in one go, since fish farming also requires a cycle.
It had been raining for three days straight, so I took out my thick coat and wrapped myself in it.
Li Wu called home and heard that his family was wearing thick coats and short sleeves. Suddenly, Li Wu felt that training here was quite good. Now he could jump into the water every day, which was very interesting.
Yang Yufen breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that her eldest grandson was doing well over there.
"Don't just train and not study properly."
Li Wen suddenly spoke up.
"How could you do this? We've been so far apart for so long, and you don't miss me, yet you still remind me to study!"
Li Wu couldn't believe that his own brother could say such a thing.
“I’m currently taking classes in the university’s gifted youth program. If you don’t study hard, you’ll just become a brute. You say you want to be a great general, but no great general is illiterate.”
Li Wen continued speaking, while Li Wu stared at the phone, wanting to reach through the phone line to beat up his younger brother.
"I will send you study materials."
Li Wencai ignored Li Wu's protests; his brother couldn't be a fool.
Yang Yufen didn't interrupt, letting the two children communicate on their own until the phone call ended.
"Grandma, I've prepared some practice questions for my brother, which are just right for him."
Li Wen wasn't joking; he had asked his grandmother, and she confirmed that the learning resources there were definitely not as good as those in Beijing.
Yang Yufen certainly wouldn't disagree. Since the child entered the gifted youth program, he has grown up faster and faster. It's a good thing that the two brothers still care about each other so much.
As the year draws to a close, heavy snow fell all night.
