Guan Jianze did not lie. When everyone came to the experimental field carrying hundreds of kilograms of branches, they happened to see Qiao Xin teaching students from the Agricultural College.
Qiao Xin was wearing a blue cloth dress and her hair was completely wrapped in a towel. She stood beside the earthen ridge, holding a finger-long tea tree branch in her hand, and quickly inserted it into the field that had been soaked.
The newly inserted branches are kept at just the right distance in front, behind, left and right, and it's clear at first glance that the owner is an old hand at farm work!

"Madam, can you get new seedlings by doing this? Don't you need to cultivate them with seeds?"

Whether it will be successful depends on the subsequent care, fertilizer, water, light, and the impact of local weather changes. No one can guarantee success at once.
People who study agronomy have to find answers amidst these constant accidents. If they could succeed in one go, there wouldn’t be so many people starving in Dajing.”
Qiao Xin glanced at everyone and said seriously: "I am now providing you with a venue, methods and funds. If you still can't bear to study, then this path is really not suitable for you. Change your career as soon as possible!
However, once this method is proven, do you know how many people will benefit from it? However, the two or three years of time saved by tea farmers in cultivating tea seedlings is inestimable!
If this is accomplished, everyone present here will have made an invaluable contribution. I, Qiao Xin, will ask the court for credit on your behalf!"
