'buzz buzz'
The roar of the engine resounded throughout the blue sky.
A fleet of more than a dozen airships came from the East Continent and landed in the sky above the West Continent.
There is no airport in Xizhou, and Pengshi is currently only on trial, so Li Zhen and others still travel by airship.
"Wow, Master Li, look."
Ding Zhenzhen was as excited as a little girl, jumping up and down in the airship, pointing at the land of Xizhou outside the porthole.
Li Zhen put his head against the window and saw the vast golden rice fields below the clouds. He watched the people coming and going in the rice fields, and the military and civilians began to make preparations. Preparing for the fall harvest.
The autumn harvest was chosen on an auspicious day, the day after tomorrow.
The day after tomorrow will be the day when the autumn harvest will begin simultaneously throughout Xizhou, with a full harvest.
But now, there is no one in the entire Xizhou city, and all the people in the city have left the city to start preparing for the autumn harvest. The people with fields were smiling from ear to ear. They had set up tents in the fields a few days ago and had to take care of the wealth that was about to be released day and night.
As for the people in the city who don't have land, no matter how pampered they were in the past, they can't resist the high-spirited atmosphere throughout the state. Take the initiative to help your relatives and friends with work.
The happiest thing in the world is sometimes not doing nothing for a day. From a different perspective, maybe there is work to do, which is also a great happiness.
This land was once barren, lazy, rotten, and deep.
In the end, its brilliance was not wasted, and it was changed under the influence of an improved plant.
It has become a place full of charm and vitality. A place of abundance, hard work, passion, and joy.
People who are in the process of its change have not noticed such changes, but those who have been here, left, and come again now feel such changes are particularly obvious.
The airship landed.
Tao Ming, governor of Xizhou and Xinzhou, who was parachuted in by the government, greeted him.
"Dean Li, long time no see."
Tao Ming stepped forward to shake hands.
Li Zhen clasped hands with him: "First of all, congratulations to Governor Taozhou for his promotion. Secondly, congratulations to Governor Taozhou for his great changes under his rule."
"Hahaha, blah blah blah. Thanks to the government's cultivation, and thanks to the support of the Kyushu Academy of Sciences."
Tao Ming said a few polite words and quickly said: "Dean Li came to Xizhou, naturally not to visit the mountains and rivers. I won't be polite if I say more. Haha, dean Li, are we?"
Li Zhen said with a smile: "Go to the fields."
"Hahaha. Yes, go to the fields. I want Dean Li to see the changes in Xizhou, and I also want to let Dean Li see how the hybrid rice you are most concerned about is now. I believe you have seen it from high in the sky. The golden color is nature’s best reward for mankind. I look forward to it and want to eat a bowl of white rice made from new rice.”
"I look forward to it too."
“…”
We chatted and exchanged pleasantries all the way, instead of taking a car, we walked to the nearest rice field area in Jinchang County.
Qi Lengzi leaned into Li Zhen's ear and whispered: "The changes are really big."
Li Zhen was surprised: "Even you feel it?"
Qi Lengzi nodded, looked at the busy people everywhere in the city and the village, and the smiling people everywhere, and murmured: "The rhythm of the whole city has become brisk. I remember that these places used to be lifeless. , Do you still remember that greeting? Everyone was wearing gorgeous clothes, and everyone was wearing a fake smile."
"And now... none of this exists anymore. No one cares whether they are wearing clothes stained with mud or clothes stained with dust. The smile on their face, the dirt in their fingernails, the sweat on their forehead, and this The atmosphere of the city makes their essence gorgeous and pure.”
Li Zhen laughed loudly: "Even you can say such philosophical words. It seems that your wife has a good tutor."
Qi Lengzi blushed and said, "This sentence comes from my feelings and has nothing to do with her."
"We all understand."
Li Zhen joked, couldn't help but think deeply about Qi Lengzi's words, but smiled.
That makes sense.
Everyone does not care whether they are wearing clothes stained with mud or clothes stained with dust. The smiles on their faces, the dirt in their nails, the sweat on their foreheads, and the atmosphere of the city make their essence gorgeous and pure.
changed. This is located in Xicui, Xizhou, which was once the poorest. Completely changed.
Maybe their wealth hasn't changed yet, but their hearts have begun to change. Even the atmosphere of the entire area has changed.
brisk.
Only lightness can be described.
Two old women met in the distance.
One is returning from the field with a teapot, and the other is going to the field with a teapot.
"Have you eaten?"
"not yet."
"Haha, the sun is about to set and you haven't eaten yet. You insist on waiting for the day after tomorrow to eat new rice?"
"No. The village chief's pigs will be killed the day after tomorrow, and then the whole village will be invited to eat new rice and pig-killing rice. I'll empty my stomach two days in advance just for that meal."
"Look how good you are. Are you going to deliver water too?"
"Yes. I'm an old man, and young people don't let me work in the fields. Even five- and six-year-old children have to fight for the work. I can't be idle at all, and it makes me suffocate. It's no longer possible. I always feel very uncomfortable if I don't do anything. I can only keep delivering tea and meals to my relatives at home. Hey, you said the harvest will be done the day after tomorrow, but they insist on staying in the fields now. What is the point of living in the fields?"
"What are they planning? Haha, you are allowed to be so excited that the wind blows under your feet all day long. Are you not allowed to keep others so excited that they stay up all night?"
"Stop talking, I'm going back to collect the quilts. The sun is going down, and the quilts collected at this time are just comfortable to cover. If it's a little later, they'll get damp. I have to send them to them at night."
"I'm going to the fields and bringing them water... Hey, hey, let's go there."
As the old woman spoke, she bluffed a few more times with her hands to scare a local dog away. Then he followed the dog towards the rice fields.
Dogs are running wildly in the golden rice fields, people are sitting on the ridges chatting, and officials are smiling in the distance. Even the autumn wind is as gentle as the spring breeze.
The flower dog jumped a few times in a field and lay lazily in the rice field under the setting sun. However, the owner of the field asked him to pick up stones and drive him away: "Go over there. He will trample the crops."
'Woof woof woof'
The flower dog barked a few times in dissatisfaction, then ran into another family's field.
One glance is endless and golden.
Peaceful.
Li Zhen stood under the shade of a tree and drank a bowl of tea from a fellow villager. He did not feel the ferocity of the autumn tiger and felt happy in his heart.
With his hands on his hips, this golden glow was reflected in his pupils.
"This prosperous age was created by me, created by me, and witnessed by me!"
