The Cannon Fodder of Fast Time Travel, She Chooses To Farm: Chapter 1303 Living in the days of natural disaster 30
Registration is very simple, because the children are in the welfare home. They only need to fill in the welfare home where they are, their names, ages and how long they have been in the welfare home.
Physical examination items are also relatively simple. In addition to the basic height, weight, vision, and vital capacity, a tube of blood is drawn to test the blood routine and blood type.
While waiting for the results, the four children sat in the person in charge’s office and swung their short legs to answer some of his questions.
Fortunately, before departure, Xu Yin and Ning Jin gave the two children training and solved many problems.
For example, how do they live without electricity?
—“Burn firewood and coal cakes!”
There are not enough firewood to make briquettes, and there are not enough briquettes to make up the tables, chairs, and benches.
For example, if they don’t have enough supplies to keep out the cold, how do they keep out the cold?
—“Hide in the cellar, our cellar is so deep!”
Anyway, these people have never seen what the cellar of the orphanage looked like before.
For another example, ask them what they usually eat?
—“Rice porridge, gnocchi, pickles, salted eggs, bacon, sausages, and vegetables grown by ourselves!”
Anyway, the dean and the other children followed the male protagonist’s family to seek refuge in other cities, and no one could prove how much supplies were left behind.
As for eating some rice porridge and making gnocchi grow so strong?
People here have never seen them before, and they think they have always been this strong, or they were stronger before.
The person in charge asked while taking notes as usual.
After a while, Xu Dong asked: "Uncle, have you finished asking? Is it our turn to ask?"
The person in charge asked funnyly: "...What do you want to ask?"
“Where is the central city?”
“The central city of our city is built at the foot of Beiming Mountain, the highest altitude mountain, not far from here.”
“Is Central City beautiful?”
“…How should I put it? It’s not as beautiful as the high-rise buildings on the ground, but…it’s pretty solid.”
It was Xu Xi's turn to ask: "Uncle, can we live together?"
“You want to live together?”
“Yeah!” The four children nodded in unison.
Xu Xi begged: "Uncle, if we work more, can we live together?"
The young people watching were entertained:
“Children, what do you do? Tell bedtime stories?”
"Hahaha!"
Xu Xi put his hands on his hips and glared at them angrily: "We can not only tell stories, we can also tell many, many more! We just said it, you adults are not paying attention! Humph!"
Little Xu Dong spread his hands: "That's what adults are like, they always like to wander off!"
…”
The person in charge couldn't help but laugh: "I didn't desert. I remember what you said, but do you really know how to cook? Did you wash the clothes yourself? That's awesome! You wash it much cleaner than these big brothers!"
The young people suddenly felt like they had been shot in the knee.
They haven't washed themselves thoroughly, or they haven't washed them at all. They have all their clothes on, so how can they have thick clothes for them to change into?
Xu Dong was very happy when he was praised: "That's right! We are good children!"
"You can also grow vegetables? What kind of vegetables are you growing? Is it this?" The person in charge took out a crisper from the drawer, which contained a few pieces of kale that he was reluctant to eat. "The experimental fields at our base have also been transplanted. The cabbage from the ground, don’t mention it, this dish is really good. Chew a piece when your mouth tastes dull. It can not only supplement vitamins, but also freshen your mouth."
The children looked at each other. Except for Xu Yin, the eyes of the other three children were full of sympathy for the person in charge. I thought to myself that this uncle was really pitiful. He described the most unpalatable dishes as delicacies in the world.
The children opened their hiking bags as agreed in advance, took out a small cloth bag they had sewn in the handicraft class, and presented their certificates of nomination:
A few mashed potatoes, a few radishes, a small bunch of celery, and a head of broccoli.
…”
Everyone was stunned.
The person in charge opened his mouth, and it took him a long time to find his voice: "...You grew these yourself?"
The children nodded.
“Were they planted in the past two years?”
The children continued to nod.
“Do you know how to grow potatoes, radishes, coriander, and broccoli?”
"Of course I know!" Xu Dong couldn't help it and asked urgently, "Uncle, we not only know how to plant, we also know how to distinguish fertilizer..."
“Retting.” Ning Jin corrected Xu Dong’s pronunciation.
Since he got the reading pen, he has corrected all the pronunciations of words he had mispronounced in the past.
"Yes, retting! We know how to retting! The retting fertilizer can make the vegetables grow fat and strong! Can you let us live together? We will earn a lot of contribution points! Please don't separate us!"
…”
Yo, do you even know the contribution value?
Are children these days so precocious?
There was a young man who had the most exaggerated reaction and kneeled down on the children: "Awesome! So awesome! Bosses, please accept my knee!"
…”
In the end, the four children won themselves a small independent two-bedroom apartment in the central city with their vegetable growing skills.
Xu Yin and Xu Xi share one bedroom, and Ning Jin and Xu Dong share one bedroom. The two bedrooms share a bathroom and a small kitchen.
Even though the area is small, it is much better than the six- or eight-person dormitories for singles!
At least once the door is closed, it’s just the four of them, so no one would be interested in secretly turning on a small stove.
I heard at the experimental field that there were four little kids who were good at growing vegetables. I didn’t believe it at first, thinking it was a rumor. Children aged seven or eight, even those who grew up in orphanages, are unlikely to be able to grow vegetables independently. Most of them help the adults pull weeds and catch insects when they are planting vegetables.
Until the person in charge led four children to the experimental field to report, and in front of a group of experts, he neatly called out the names of various vegetables, told them their planting conditions and precautions, and also corrected what one of the experts was cultivating. Cold-resistant short eggplant:
“Grandpa, when the eggplant bears fruit, you need to feed it more water so that it can grow fat.”
…”
The experts all opened their mouths and almost dislocated their jaws.
I don’t know who asked what everyone was thinking: “Are you really only seven or eight years old?”
The knowledge about growing vegetables and fruits is not necessarily less than that of their doctoral assistants!
PhD Assistant: Are we falling out of favor?
In any case, Xu Yin and the other two settled into the central city smoothly and got a job with stable contribution value—growing vegetables in Baogan fields.
The experts in charge of the experimental field have a large dry farm under their names, and they take turns providing ingredients to major canteens in the central city.
There are not just four children working in Baogan Field, but dozens of them. All of them are former big vegetable growers, and they specialize in growing ecological and organic vegetables. Those who do not grow organic vegetables will not be recruited.
I saw that the new vegetable farmers were four little radish boys aged seven or eight. These big vegetable farmers didn’t say anything, but they had some opinions in their hearts.
“Primary school students are here to grow vegetables? Are you kidding? At this age, you don’t go to the children’s class and come here to play? Do you think this is a place to play in the mud?”
“I can’t be a relative of some high-ranking person. I want to come here to bask in the sun.”
“Who doesn’t want to come and bask in the sun?”
