[System, sign in.]
[Ding—Successfully signed in on the fifteenth day of fleeing famine, and received sign-in rewards: two kilograms of rice, one kilogram of flour, and 15 beef balls.
Get the cumulative sign-in reward: Food Storage
The system kindly reminds you: the system space is insufficient, please take out the sign-in reward in time. 】
After successfully signing in, Lu Changge took out the food storage container.
It was a ring inlaid with red jade, and its style was extremely simple.
[Host, you can use it after dripping blood to acknowledge your master.] The system explained.
Lu Changge looked around before dripping blood on the ring.
As soon as the blood was dropped, it was absorbed immediately, and there was no reaction afterwards.
[System, is this a counterfeit product?]
[What a shoddy product! Try it on first.]
Lu Changge put it on, and the next second the ring disappeared, and a small red dot appeared at the original position on his finger.
At this time, Lu Changge seemed to see the space inside the food storage container.
The space in the storage is divided into grids.
Lu Changge put a bag of rice from the system space into it, and it was then stored in the first grid, with the word "rice" appearing on the grid.
Two more bags were added.
These two bags were put directly into this [rice] grid.
Then, Lu Changge put all the rice in the system space into it.
Not surprisingly, no matter how much rice is put in, it only takes up one grid.
This is equivalent to saying that as long as it is the same thing, it can be stored indefinitely.
Unfortunately, this storage container can only hold food.
[System, are there other types of memory?]
[No! Memory is not cabbage, having one is good enough.] The system said righteously.
Although he didn't get the answer he wanted, Lu Changge was not disappointed.
Food goes in the storage, and other things can be put in the system space.
After packing up his things, Lu Changge immediately returned home.
…
The next day after returning from the provincial capital, Li Tugen came running over just as Lu Changge and his family had finished lunch.
"Uncle Lu, the village chief said that the fish pond will be drained today and the fish will be sorted out after that. Remember to bring buckets to collect the fish this afternoon."
"Why are you releasing the water when everything is fine?" Su Qingyun asked curiously.
"Many families' fields are cracked, and the village chief said that the water from the pond should be drawn out to irrigate the fields." Li Tugen repeated the explanation given by the village chief.
The rice here is harvested in July, and after the harvest they have to plant the second crop quickly.
Before harvesting, the rice fields must be dewatered.
However, water outage also depends on the specific situation.
If the temperature is high, water evaporation will be faster, in which case the water supply can be cut off later.
Three to five days before harvest.
On the contrary, if the temperature is low, water can be cut off ten to fifteen days before harvest.
These experiences were gained bit by bit by farmers.
The strong sun lasted for half a month, and the temperature was frighteningly high. The village chief also noticed something was wrong, so he made this decision.
It is now mid-June, and there is less than a month left until the rice harvest, so we cannot afford to lack water.
Otherwise, rice production will decrease.
"It hasn't rained for a month, and the weather is getting hotter... Husband, do you think something big is going to happen?" Su Qingyun said in a low voice, with some worry in her eyes.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Lu Changge held his hand and comforted him.
He also didn't tell his wife about the drought.
It would only add to the trouble if I said anything.
Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Changge took the bucket and went to the fish pond.
When he went there, the water in the fish pond had been drained and there were only a few villagers left queuing to share the fish.
"Why did the land hunters come so late? The big fish have all been picked up, and now there is only this bucket of small ones left." said the villager in charge of dividing the fish.
"Well, give them all to me."
"Okay, you're the last one anyway, so take them all." The middle-aged man said readily.
Su Qingyun had not been sitting in the yard for long when Lu Changge came back carrying a bucket.
"Why did you come back so soon?" Su Qingyun stood up and walked over.
"Last one, no need to queue."
“They are all small fish…”
Su Qingyun looked down and saw that the bucket was full of small fish.
The largest one was only as big as his palm, and most of them were thumb-sized fish.
"Well, I'll fry some fish for you at noon tomorrow," said Lu Changge.
The small fish in the bucket are all alive and can be kept overnight.
During dinner, the couple talked about the lack of water in the fields again.
"Husband, can we harvest our cabbages now?" Su Qingyun asked.
"It will take another half month."
In May, Lu Changge hired people to plant half an acre of cabbage.
It is usually not available until July.
"If it doesn't rain in a few days..." Su Qingyun frowned.
The vegetable garden cannot be left dry all the time, otherwise the vegetables will not survive.
During this period, Lu Changge had to water the farm every one or two days.
It would take less than an hour to water half an acre of land.
"I'll collect it tomorrow."
Lu Changge thought that if locusts appeared in early July, a locust plague would break out in mid-July.
He had to harvest all the grain from the fields within half a month.
Locusts not only eat crops, leaves and fruits, but also weeds.
Once a locust plague breaks out, not a single blade of grass will grow.
"It's time to dig the potatoes in the field." Lu Changge picked up some vegetables for his wife.
Hearing him say this, Su Qingyun suddenly remembered that there was only enough space left in the storeroom at home to store half an acre of potatoes.
"But there's not much space left in the storeroom at home."
"It's okay. I'll find a way."
Before going to bed at night, Lu Changge called out the system.
[System, give me another food storage container.]
[no.]
Lu Changge sighed, "Then I'll take the next accumulated 15-day sign-in reward in advance."
[Next time is thirty days!]
[It’s all the same, hurry up.] Lu Changge said casually.
[If I say there is none, then there is none. There is only one food storage device!] The system said angrily, is it being taken advantage of?
[Okay, then share this with my wife.] Lu Changge finally revealed his true purpose.
[No... Host, are you trying to trick me?] The system always feels like something is wrong.
[Would you like to give me another one, or would you like to share this one with my wife?]
[Second one, second one! It’s just sharing, no big deal!]
The system quickly spoke.
He was afraid that if he was too late, the host would take his treasure away again.
The next morning
Today, Lu Changge had to harvest the cabbages on half an acre of land, so he got up at dawn.
After making breakfast, without waiting for his wife to get up, Lu Changge took a few buns and ate them while going out.
"Tuanzi, wait for your father to wake up and tell him that daddy has gone to the fields."
"Good!" Tuanzi responded in a baby voice.
Daddy went out, and Mum hasn't gotten up yet. Tuanzi is not sitting in the chair to eat breakfast properly.
He picked up the bowl and drank the goat milk in gulps, then held a bun in each hand and ran to the gate.
Erhei beside him also followed.
[Little Master, where are you going?] Er Teng asked curiously.
"Go outside!"
When Tuanzi and Erhei came back from outside, Su Qingyun happened to come out of the house.
"Mum! Daddy is going to...go to the ground!"
"Okay, father got it." Su Qingyun said absentmindedly.
After he rinsed his mouth and washed his face, he saw Tuanzi and Erhei playing in the yard and asked again, "Tuanzi, have you had breakfast?"
"Eat!"
Su Qingyun sat down to eat breakfast.
Today's breakfast is rice porridge with steamed buns, a boiled egg, and half a bowl of spicy diced radish.
However, Su Qingyun ate absent-mindedly, as if something was bothering him.
Suddenly, the bun he had taken a few bites of disappeared.
Su Qingyun's first reaction was not to panic, but to subconsciously look at Tuanzi.
Seeing Tuanzi squatting on the ground with his back to him, Su Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.
However, this was seen by Da Teng.
Before Su Qingyun could relax, her heart started to tighten again.
Is he... possessed?
Lu Changge had no idea that his wife thought he was possessed by evil spirits.
This time, he directly hired ten people to harvest cabbage and potatoes.
Harvest cabbage in the morning, and then start digging potatoes.
Lu Changge harvested the crops in the fields ahead of time, which naturally attracted the attention of other villagers.
"Land Hunter, your potatoes can still grow for a while, why are you digging them up now?"
"It hasn't rained recently, so it doesn't matter whether we dig early or late." Lu Changge answered casually.
"That's right..." one of the villagers said with emotion, "If it doesn't rain today, the grain harvest this year will be bad."
"Raining? I don't think it's possible... I can only work hard to fetch water."
"Who said it wasn't..."
The villagers stayed there and chatted for a while and then went back.
However, Lin Qingrou, who lived at the other end of the village, felt confused when she heard the village ladies talking about this matter.
How come this land hunter harvested food in advance?
The white radishes I harvested before, and the cabbages and potatoes I harvested today.
Could it be that he also knows...
impossible!
Lin Qingrou dispelled the suspicion in her mind.
However, speaking of food.
Lin Qingrou thought about how little food she had stored, and then she remembered what the aunt in the village had said about the hunters bringing back cartloads of cabbage and potatoes.
An idea suddenly came to my mind.
