Chapter 706: Building a Prosperous Pastoral 98

The day before the rice harvest, Long Hexuan asked Ying Sheng to take the token and go to the county seat to find the county order, and told the county order to let him bring his master over to record the yield.

"Why do you want to ask the county magistrate to come over?" Hearing Long Hexuan's command, Xi Yue asked curiously.

"We have to have real evidence, if someone questions your credit, we have actual data to prove it, so that those who have opinions have nothing to say." Long Hexuan replied with a smile.

"Well, it's still thoughtful." Hearing Long Hexuan's explanation, Xi Yuexin nodded in agreement.

"Have you decided to harvest the paddy tomorrow?" Xi Yuexin asked uncertainly.

"It has been confirmed with your father, the manpower has been prepared, and the field to record the yield has also been selected, which is just one acre of field, so it is easy to remember the yield." Long Hexuan nodded and said.

What Long Hexuan and Xi Yuexin didn't know was that at this time, at the edge of the field they rented, there were a few villagers gathered around to discuss the rice in the field.

"I've grown so big, it's the first time I've seen rice with such full grains, heavy, this bunch of rice is afraid of half a catty, right?" A villager squatted down and held the ears of rice and said in amazement.

"I think there is, why don't you count how many grains of rice there are?" The person standing beside him urged, he also wanted to squat down and hold a handful of this amazingly growing rice, but he was afraid that he would touch the rice on the ears of rice with his hands and feet, which would be a waste of food, and he would be sent by heaven.

"Okay." The villager holding the ears of rice readily responded, and he also wanted to know how many grains there were in this bunch of rice ears.

"But you have to be careful, but don't get rid of it." The man next to him reminded.

"I will."

"What are you doing?" As soon as the person holding the ear of rice wanted to count, he heard a serious voice ringing in his ear, so frightened that he quickly let go of the ear of rice in his hand, and when he looked up, he was even more frightened to stand up immediately and shouted: "Lizheng." ”

"What were you guys doing?" Xi Guodong continued to ask, his voice still serious.

"Lizheng, we just want to count how many ears of rice there are in this bunch of rice." The villager who had been standing replied with a smile.

"Don't count, I've already counted." Hearing the villagers' answers, Xi Guodong's tone was a little calmer.

"Lizheng, how many are there?" When the two heard Xi Guodong's words, they first looked at each other, and then both of them asked in unison, their faces full of curiosity.

"Two hundred and sixty-eight."

"Oh my God! So much? Hearing the figures reported by Xi Guodong, the two exclaimed in disbelief.

"Okay, now that you know, you can leave, right?" Xi Guodong understands the mood of the two, when he just counted it, it was also their expression, last year his family planted a bunch of rice ears were only more than 70, this year only used organic fertilizer, and the yield has almost quadrupled.

"Lizheng, I still want to see these ears of rice again." The villagers demanded.

Although his family's fields have been leased to Xi Yuexin for planting, these fields belong to Xiaolang Village, and as a person from Xiaolang Village, he is of course proud that Xiaolang Village can grow so much rice.

"No, you guys get out of here." Xi Guodong drove the two away seriously, he was afraid that someone would steal the rice, so he would come to see it several times a day, and when he saw the two of them holding the ears of rice just now, he thought he was here to steal the rice.

Although both of them are important people in the village, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no bad intentions, he still needs to be careful, and he must not let people steal it, this is the result of their hard work for so many months.
