Chapter 49: Chapter 47 Let’s Do It
Liu Qian had been treating the farm as her own home for nearly half a year, deeply caring about her family’s affairs, and everyone worked together to worry about the farm activities, which indeed saved Li Pan a great deal of effort.
Xue Dong made another call to Qin Jianzhong asking him to bring back more green bricks and red bricks for constructing boundary fences.
When they arrived at the house, they noticed the courtyard walls and the beautiful two-story building, which included a balcony and the courtyard wall even had a drainage system.
Li Pan slightly frowned, showing no particular excitement upon seeing the well-built house.
“This second floor and courtyard wall are much better than ours. The walls are very thick, probably insulated with thermal cotton.”
This could be somewhat discerned from the door side.
“The Base Commander mentioned it was done well, hardly needing further insulation. They spent most of their money on the courtyard.”
Xue Dong scoffed lightly, not focusing the effort on the farmlands but rather indulging in luxury here.
“Let’s go inside and look.”
There was no furniture inside, the house was empty, but the water and electricity were well installed, which couldn’t be removed.
The house was also styled like a wooden house, including a stone-built fireplace with a chimney. The fixtures like the washbasin were of a high standard, looking quite pricey compared to the ordinary white porcelain basin in Li Pan’s house.
“Very luxurious.”
Li Pan was astonished, the renovation could match the level of her house before the disaster, not cheap at all.
Liu Qian also darkened her face, no wonder they were losing money, why didn’t you check where your money was going.
Going up to the second floor, they saw the balcony was also equipped with waterproof wood and thick glass, with a substantial fireplace built with stones at the stair entrance, capable of warming up the entire second floor when fired.
“Alright, there’s no need to build a house for now, let’s check the granary.”
The two went to a row of buildings in the backyard of the small two-story building, where the ground was raised with stones. There were ten rooms, all warehouses, each quite spacious, empty inside, with traces of dismantled iron shelves.
“Why didn’t they build a breeding area?”
“Probably ran out of money or went bankrupt before they could finish, let it be, we’ll build our own since we have enough money.”
Just the ginseng last time exchanged for two hundred thousand, that ginseng was sold, offered at a high price in the rich district, everyone involved received a share, all superpower users who went to the forest got a big payout.
Other items were also sold for money, and the recent grain sales also brought in money, they had enough money now.
“So where would be suitable to build the breeding area?”
“Better close to the vegetable garden for convenience with fertilizer, and farther from the house to avoid the smell.”
“I found the cave, the cave is big and well dug, and it’s empty.”
Liu Qian made another discovery after making a round.
They went to check the cave, which was good and could store plenty of grain.
After touring the farm, apart from some wild chickens and ducks and fish in the river, there wasn’t much else; nearly everything removable was gone. The drip irrigation system wasn’t taken as they feared moving everything would leave no tenants, then they wouldn’t recover their capital.
They signed a lease renewal contract with the base, which also involved assessing what the farm had and its value for pricing. Then the base used the money to refund the previous tenant, with no need for tenants to contact each other, each minding their own without interacting.
The drip irrigation system was still acceptable, the wiring and internet cables weren’t removed, private removal wasn’t allowed, nothing else was left.
Wolf King and Liu Qian went home after catching a few wild chickens and ducks.
“Brother, sister, you’re back, I’ve made the meal.”
Zhang Yu and his siblings came up to greet them, the siblings along with their younger sister had finished the tasks and prepared the meal.
“Thanks, indeed hungry. Caught a few wild chickens and ducks, and got some eggs too. Set them aside for now, we’ll boil some water tonight to scald them.”
“Okay, I’ll put them in the kitchen, I’ll boil the water later, we can handle this bit of work.”
Sun Wenwen took it upon herself to take it to the kitchen.
“Hey, where did Zhengfei and Xie Ling go, out?”
Li Pan looked around and didn’t see anyone. The kids couldn’t have left the farm, could they?
“No, they’re working. I sent them to plow the field, to turn over the land we planted last year. Lingzi is channeling superpower; I asked her to channel some into your medicinal herbs too, just a bit will do.”
“Good kids, I appreciate you all thinking of that. Tell them to eat first when they get back.”
Li Pan nodded happily, grateful to have someone help channel Wood Power superpower, saving her a lot of trouble.
The kids were back.
“Why the rush to work? It can wait until tomorrow.”
“Not tired at all. I opened up two plots and turned over a few others; it wasn’t exhausting.”
Yang Zhengfei shook his head.
“Eat first.”
Everyone sat down to eat together, Li Pan had Zhang Qi serve extra dishes to her brothers and sisters, making sure they ate well.
“Eat up here without worries. The brothers and sisters are nice, they always make sure we have enough to eat, with meat at every meal. Eat freely, no one will scold us.”
Since arriving, Zhang Yu had gotten along well with Li Pan and become increasingly outspoken, quite a contrast to how quiet she was initially.
“Thanks, brothers and sisters. Arrange the work for us before you leave tomorrow, and we can handle it ourselves.”
Xie Ling spoke up voluntarily.
“Alright, we need to work at No. 7 Farm tomorrow. Qi, Yu, take your siblings and handle the work here. We’ll rely on you to manage things; we need to get the wheat and sweet potatoes planted at No. 7 Farm before winter arrives, so we have a large food supply by next spring. It’s tight timing; can you handle things here while we focus on that?”
“Absolutely, there’s not much left to do here. You’ve done most of it; we can handle the rest.”
Sun Wenwen volunteered confidently.
Work at No. 8 Farm was almost done; some wheat was already sown, and all the sweet potatoes were planted too, just some part of the wheat and the vegetable garden for the autumn and winter crops were left, which Xie Ling and Zhang Qi were fully capable of handling.
Zhang Qi was experienced in farming; he knew how to do it all, just not as much as an adult.
But since coming here, the siblings had worked incredibly hard, not slacking at all, and did almost as well as adults, plus they were careful and efficient, truly relieving her worries.
“If you get tired, rest. Don’t force yourself, and don’t let your superpower deplete, it’s bad for your health.”
“Understood.”

“Bro, should I bring food to you?”
“No need to bring it; we’re setting up the stove tomorrow. The kitchen yard over there has a stove, and after we eat, we’ll bring some food and farming tools over, so we can cook there.”
“What about tomorrow’s meals? Why don’t we prepare them now?”
“We’ll cook some potatoes and sweet potatoes, and some chicken too.”
“If it gets too late to cook tomorrow, Yu, you and Xie Ling prepare the meals and bring them to us. There will be quite a few people, I’ll call you later, just cook for about ten people, anything like potato, sweet potato, steamed buns, or rice will do.”
“Okay, we’ll have steamed buns tomorrow, we still have plenty at home. We’ll have rice the day after tomorrow.”
After dinner, Li Pan put down the things she brought back from the base; it was all bagged flour, provided directly by the Base Commander, sparing them from having to mill the flour manually, which would be too much work and cause delays.
The base had large machinery, just switch on the electricity, and it would directly bag the flour.
They also specifically requested some wheat bran to keep for feeding the livestock.
“Have the piglets and sheep been fed?”
“They’ve been fed, and the pens are also cleaned out. Sister, don’t worry, Jianzhong made sure to repeatedly instruct me before leaving.”
“That’s good, let’s go to the neighboring farm and drop off some food and other items.”
