Sun Ye bent down to measure the length of the rice stalks. The seedlings had three leaves, emerald green, swaying gracefully in the wind, and colliding with each other, making a rustling sound. Their growth conditions were mostly the same, so he only measured five leaves as a standard.
Compared with other rice, the rice in the research institute is indeed ordinary, and only Sun Ye, a rice grower, pays close attention to its growth.
Sun Ye lived up to his constant nagging, and he grew up healthily. It wasn't that he changed every day, but the changes would be obvious in ten days or half a month.
It blooms and then enters the milky stage. The grains on a plant are bright and numerous, and they are full of juice when pinched by hand.
Sun Ye squatted beside the field every day, watching the grains swell up.
Because Professor Liu checked the growth data recorded by Sun Ye, which was recorded in an orderly manner, he also took the time to take a look at it, after all, it was the result of his first student.
As long as the fruit is not shriveled and plump when fully ripe, it is considered normal.
Sun Ye reached out and pinched the rice ears, nodding secretly in his heart. It was good. The rice looked no different from those in the field after the first planting.
Sun Ye didn't care about anything at the moment. He relaxed his mind and encouraged the little guys in the field: "If you need anything, you must tell me. I will find a way to get it for you. Don't keep it to yourself."
"Leaves, leaves, we don't need to do much. As long as we get some sunshine every day and have enough water, we will grow well."
"Yes, this land is very good. I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere."
"I have a question."
Sun Ye found a rice plant that looked different from the others. He first looked at its body carefully and found that it was no different from the others.
"What's the problem?"
"The brother in front of me has his head pressing on mine. I feel uncomfortable."
Sun Ye took a closer look and saw that it was only slightly blocking the rice ears, so there was no way it could be considered as pressing down.
Then he said angrily: "Why are you so spoiled? I guess your descendants are just like you. Your descendants in the future will have to grow up crowded together with others, and they won't have such a large territory to squander."
"I'm not a spoiled person. I just want you to talk to me. Don't be angry. I..."
"I'm not angry. You have to understand that the situation out there is dire. Now is the chance to grow well."
Sun Ye sat directly on the ground, supporting his head with one hand, and it was obvious that he was going to give these rice plants a thought lesson.
"Ye Zi, those guys out there definitely aren't as good looking as us."
"Don't be too proud. If the fruits are not as good as those in the fields when they are ripe, it will be a joke, right?"
"Let's work harder, stretch when we need to, and deliver food as soon as we need to, so that our children and grandchildren can grow up."
"Ye Zi, the brothers and sisters in our group must have a name, otherwise they will be the same as those outside, which is too embarrassing."
Dao Xiao was quite arrogant.
"Okay, I'll tell the teacher what you want to be called. I'll put up a sign for you one day so others can recognize you at a glance."
"It has to be catchy, powerful, and nice to the ear. It's best if you can tell it's the best and greatest rice right away. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing."
There are quite a lot of requirements. Does such a name exist? A big question mark crossed Sun Ye's mind.
"How about Rice King?"
Please forgive her poor naming skills. She has never named anyone else and can’t think of any appropriate name.
"Rice King? What a great name! The King of Rice, the return of the King."
It was obvious that these little guys were very satisfied, but Sun Ye, the person who named them, was so embarrassed that he just sat there with his toes touching the ground and had to stay there with his head held high.
"Ye Zi, what are you doing there? Come here!"
Professor Liu shouted loudly at the door of the laboratory. At this moment, Professor Liu had regained his former spirit. It seemed that nothing could defeat him and he was full of resilience.
Their experimental results had been rejected outright, and the research institute in the capital had just been sealed off, so the people inside couldn't receive the results and were stranded for a long time before returning.
The cities in big cities are now in chaos, like the darkness before dawn, extremely crazy and insane.
Sun Ye uttered an "ah", stood up straight, patted the dust on his pants with both hands, and trotted towards Professor Liu.
"Teacher, you called me?"
"Here, this is your experimental item, come and take a look."
Professor Liu smiled broadly. Sun Ye followed behind Professor Liu inexplicably and looked at the rice she had brought out at the beginning on the laboratory table. Professor Liu pulled out a piece of handwritten paper with flamboyant strokes.
Sun Ye felt dizzy when she took a look. She really couldn't recognize him. She was too incompetent to recognize him.
"Look at this data, it's almost the same as what we planted before. It's great to get such results for the first time."
Professor Liu pointed to a few points in the long text, and Sun Ye could only say shamefully, "Teacher, I can't tell what this says."
"Protein and lipids are the most obvious. Are there other areas that need improvement?"
Sun Ye had also read quite a few books, so he naturally understood what Professor Liu meant. It had a stronger sense of fullness, better nutrition, and the same was true for the taste.
"Leaf, here, it's for you."
Professor Liu was in a good mood and gave the experimental data to Sun Ye.
Sun Ye looked at the pages of data, which were her achievements. If the little rice plant was still there, the result would probably be different. Sun Ye felt a little discouraged.
"Ye Zi should do the same in the future, record carefully and make progress bit by bit. You can't become fat in one go, you have to take it slow..."
Professor Liu suddenly sighed, swallowed his unfinished words, and said, "You're already doing well. Don't be unhappy. Children should be happy."
Sun Ye also nodded.
The autumn wind is about to blow, the first fallen leaf slowly falls to the ground, the mountains change color, and the annual autumn harvest begins. Sun Ye no longer comes to the research institute and joins the harvest team.
She was already a grown-up girl and could no longer do the light work she used to do. It was time to give it to the children younger than her, so she was assigned the job of harvesting rice.
Sun Ye waved the sickle very beautifully. Sun Sen and Sun Lin cheered for him. One of them got a slap on the head from Sun's mother and glared at Sun Ye.
Sun Ye immediately held the sickle properly, stopped showing off, and followed the main force step by step towards the field.
Everyone is happier than anything else as they see the rice growing better year by year. It doesn’t matter if they are a little bit hard-working or tired, as long as they can fill their stomachs, the best thing is.
At the captain's command, everyone rushed into the rice fields. Sun Ye looked around. Although the rice was not as good as that in the research institute, it was not bad either. It was golden and pleasing to the eye.
He imitated Sun Ma's behavior, spat on the sickle handle, and bent down to get on the ground.
Today, Sun Ye is becoming more and more like a real human being. He has unconsciously put down the unknown burdens of being the high priest of the elves. He feels relaxed and comfortable, and Sun Ye enjoys it.
Holding the rice stalk in one hand and the sickle in the other, gently cut the root, and a whole handful of rice will be cut off and placed aside. Young children will come to bundle it, and the men will carry it to the thresher to thresh it. The threshed grains will be packed and transported to the square to dry.
Sun Ye just lowered his head and cut a lot in one go. After a while, he stood up to hammer. Looking around, no one was lazy. They were all working hard. They only wiped the sweat from their eyes with the handkerchief hanging around their necks, without stopping for a moment.
Sun Ye didn't waste any time and bent down to continue cutting rice. This was linked to work points. The more you work, the more you earn. Work points were calculated freely during the autumn harvest. Whoever worked harder would get more work points, and there was no upper limit.
They worked all day long and only finished when the moon rose and it got dark. Sun Ye drank a whole pot of water in one day. He felt sore all over, his arms felt numb, and it was difficult for him to straighten his bent back.
He sat on the edge of the field with a grin on his face, rubbing his hands here and there, waiting for the scorer to come and record the centimeters. Although he was tired, he felt indescribably satisfied when he looked at the bare field in front of him.
One is lying on his back on the ground, with the sky full of stars arranged into groups of wonderful patterns.
Sun Ye sat up suddenly, rubbed his eyes, and tried to see clearly. He wondered if he was tired and dazzled, as how could he see the terrible weather that it would rain tomorrow.
But no matter how much Sun Ye rubbed his eyes or how he looked, it was still the same bad weather.
He didn't care about the pain in his back, he got up and went to Sun's mother. Sun's mother was chatting happily with others. Sun Ye walked over to her and tugged at her sleeve, which made her look at him in anger.
Sun Ye was unmoved and just pulled his mother to the side. This was a serious matter. The harvest of the whole year should not be wasted at this moment. It would be a waste of time and effort.
Sun's mother could only nod apologetically to the aunts, followed Sun Ye to the side, and said, "Ye Zi, what are you doing? This is very ignorant behavior."
"Mom, I have something important to say."
"Can't you go home for what?"
"No. It's too hasty."
Sun Ye estimated that the people around him might not be able to hear him, so he lowered his voice and said, "Mom, I looked at the sky, and it said it's going to rain heavily tomorrow."
"What? What the hell are you talking about?" Sun's mother couldn't control her voice and raised it a lot, attracting the attention of others.
Sun Ye hurriedly said, "Mom, don't yell outside."
"Okay, okay, Ye Zi, is this true? You can't joke like this with your mother." Sun's mother's tone and expression were more serious than ever before.
"Mom, can I joke about something like this? Am I crazy?"
"Ye Zi, what should we do? The rice in the field hasn't been harvested yet. If it gets soaked in water, there's no way to save it."
Sun's mother was so scared at this time that she was at a loss. She had full faith in Sun Ye's ability to know the weather, so she just grabbed Sun Ye and kept asking him questions.
"Mom, go find grandma and tell her about this. Have the team work tirelessly to collect the crops overnight. The rain should start around noon tomorrow, so we should be able to catch them in time."
"Okay, okay, Mom will go find milk right away. Go find milk."
Mother Sun ran to the threshing ground to look for Old Lady Sun, her figure in a panic, running all the way.
If Sun Ye didn't feel that he was too young and not convincing enough, he would have gone to explain the whole story to the captain in person, hoping that the captain would listen.
Sun Ye prayed silently, everything will go well, it will definitely go well.
