Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 315 The Contract That Should Be Signed Must Be Signed

Should I become a teacher at an agricultural technology college?

Will Guo Tianyou and the others refuse?
will not!

Only a fool would refuse!

Even if they are just feng shui masters, or only practice the Qi cultivation methods of farmers.

However, it's not impossible to teach students.

Even teaching farmers breathing techniques would be acceptable.

After all, they really do know how.

They just haven't learned the supernatural skills of the farmers yet.

Moreover, when the college opened, most of the teachers were people from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

Aren't they mostly from the same region?

Even Han Lingxue, whose cultivation level is the highest, has only reached the threshold of the second realm, and it's hard to say when she will break through.

It's not certain that a breakthrough can be achieved before the start of the academic year.

Even if she breaks through, she may not immediately learn those supernatural abilities.

Those supernatural skills and techniques of farmers obviously cannot be taught in a short time.

Of course, Guo Tianyou and the others didn't refuse because they saw how much potential the academy had.

Only after reaching the second realm of cultivation can one truly graduate; one must also learn the corresponding formations and supernatural abilities.

It's hard to say how many people will graduate from a four-year academic program, but there will definitely be a lot of outstanding individuals among them.

Little by little, a great deal is accumulated; just as many drops of water make a river.

Those students don't stop progressing after graduation. Even if they don't reach the fourth realm, they still have a chance to reach the third realm, right?

When you see them, you have to greet them with "Hello, teacher!"
The teacher-student relationship may not be as good as the master-apprentice relationship, but teaching so many experts is still a very satisfying and proud thing.

What does the Agricultural Technology College teach?

Guo Tianyou couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

“The cultivation methods of farmers are just one of them,” Xu Yue said. “Of course, that will be the main focus. In addition, we will also teach some agricultural books, as well as modern agricultural knowledge and technology.”

Teaching what?
Xu Yue had indeed discussed this matter with Academician Meng and others.

Using modern agricultural colleges as a reference, select some and then add some more.

It actually consists of two parts: farm life and technology!

It mainly focuses on the cultivation methods and supernatural powers of farmers, but also requires learning modern agricultural technology.

Then there are studies that combine the two.

Xu Yue naturally didn't care about the agricultural college or anything like that.

He doesn't understand either.

He only cares about the farmers' affairs.

Of course, he was actually fine.

He mainly taught the supernatural skills and techniques of farmers.

As for breathing techniques, so many people know them that he doesn't need to teach them.

Who might have practiced supernatural powers at the beginning of the school year?
no one.

It's hard to say whether Han Lingxue can break through.

So what if we break through?

One person can't teach it all.

When others are ready to learn, then let Han Lingxue teach them.

When it comes to running a company, Xu Yue can be a hands-off boss.

He could do the same if he opened a college.

He would have been even more carefree if Zhang Ruoxi hadn't been pregnant.

"Shouldn't we also arrange the fields?"

Liu Chengji asked a question.

“That’s right!” Xu Yue said, “Working in fields with spirit arrays makes cultivation much faster than working in other places.”

Fields with spirit arrays naturally generate more "qi".

Liu Chengji was also aware of this.

He also knows the farmer's breathing technique.

Since the Farmer's Breathing Method requires agricultural labor, it is natural that some farmland needs to be planned around the academy.

Because the main training requires working in the fields.

A considerable amount of land was allocated to the college.

Of course, initially, Xu Yue and his team didn't need to make so many arrangements.

Some should be reserved for students who have reached a certain level of cultivation to practice.

Teaching buildings, dormitories, and other similar structures also need to be equipped with formations.

At least a spirit-gathering array needs to be set up.

After inspecting the area, Xu Yue and his group immediately began making arrangements.

However, most of the time it was Guo Tianyou and his team who were busy with the work, while Xu Yue provided guidance from the side.

"Sister Han, what's wrong?"

Xu Yue was busy setting up the formation, but Han Lingxue came to the academy.

"Have you set up an array here? Can I take a look?"

Han Lingxue didn't waste any words and directly stated her purpose.

“Of course, no problem,” Xu Yue said. “They are currently setting up a Spirit Transformation Array to transform the earth's energy into spiritual energy, and then they will also set up a Spirit Gathering Array.”

Xu Yue began to explain to Han Lingxue.

He could tell that Han Lingxue was now at the peak of the first realm, just one step away from the second realm.

I really don't know how she cultivated; her speed is much faster than others.

Of course, the cultivation methods might be the same, but her talent and physique are exceptional.

What should one pay attention to when breaking through to the second realm?

Taking advantage of a moment of silence, Han Lingxue casually asked Xu Yue a question.

“Go find Ruoxi and talk to her,” Xu Yue said. “I didn’t have any references or lessons to draw upon for my breakthrough. When I broke through, it was a natural process, without any obstacles, and it even seemed to happen without me realizing it.”

"it is good!"

Han Lingxue nodded.

Compared to Xu Yue, Zhang Ruoxi's experience was more enlightening for her.

"Tell us in advance when you feel you're about to break through, and we can prepare some things for you that will help you," Xu Yue said. "For example, medicinal baths, spiritual herbs, etc."

Han Lingxue's current situation is either that she will be able to break through soon, or that she will be stuck at a bottleneck for a long time and find it difficult to break through.

However, Xu Yue prefers the former.

"The teacher said we won't be back until the autumn harvest in the desert," Han Lingxue said. "The academy's curriculum is for us to discuss with you."

“If cultivation is the primary focus, then sufficient time needs to be spent working in the fields,” Xu Yue said. “You agricultural scientists know better than I do about when to do what kind of work. And you know better than I do about teaching other related knowledge. You can put together one first, and I’ll take a look.”

"it is good!"

Han Lingxue was not dissatisfied with Xu Yue's abrupt departure.

He's the principal; how can he do everything himself?

Besides, what he said makes a lot of sense.

"How many students were in the first batch?" Xu Yue asked. "Did they all manage to sense the Qi?"

“Over five hundred!” Han Lingxue glanced at Xu Yue and said, “They’re all people who have comprehended the Qi sensation. You should have some more people on your side, right?”

Xu Yue's lips twitched, and he nodded.

This is more than double what he predicted.

“Although there are many people, they should be able to support themselves in the future,” Han Lingxue said. “However, the farm will still need to provide supplies before the harvest.”

Those people all have to work in the fields.

So, isn't what they grow enough for them to eat?

The college has not only planting areas, but also breeding areas.

Not only poultry farming, but also aquaculture.

Not only can they be self-sufficient, but they might also be able to generate income.

"There are more than I expected," Xu Yue said. "There are probably only about twenty people on the farm, but Lao Tian hasn't given me the exact number yet."

Besides Shen Yu and others, people from the farm like Xu Wei will also enroll in the academy for further studies. Of course, they will be auditing the classes.

Those people were high-ranking members cultivated by the farm.

You don't need to know how, but you need to understand.

Of course, it would be even better if you could do it yourself.

Han Lingxue didn't know what to say.

Xu Yue was in charge, but he only had about twenty people on his side, while they had more than five hundred.

The difference is several tens of times.

"Among those five hundred-plus people, besides the students from the College of Agriculture and the researchers from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, there should also be people from the Special Administration Bureau, right?" Xu Yue said. "The contracts that need to be signed still have to be signed!"

As for whether those people are trustworthy?

Xu Yue was not worried.

Those people were definitely handpicked.

I wouldn't say I've checked all three generations of my ancestors, but that's probably close enough.

The breathing technique has been spread, that's fine.

Without corresponding supernatural powers and formations, one is at most physically strong.

Even if it falls into the hands of foreign countries, so what?
Therefore, many people on the farm practice breathing techniques.

It even suggests that it may gradually become more widespread.

Xu Yue ignored it.

Moreover, that breathing technique was not the one he inherited, but the one he obtained from the tomb of a farmer's descendant.

It wasn't him who first got the news, but agricultural science.

Moreover, that breathing technique has probably already spread to many agricultural science academies.

Since it has spread to those schools, what's wrong with it spreading to the farm?
When employees learn the skills, their work becomes less strenuous, and their work efficiency increases dramatically.

They don't need to work overtime; they'll voluntarily work overtime without asking for overtime pay.

Ok!

Taoyuan Farm does not usually pay overtime wages, except on holidays.

The length of working hours is not fixed.

It will be longer during the busy farming season and shorter during the off-season.

“Of course we’ll sign them,” Han Lingxue said. “They’re exempt from tuition and room and board. After learning the skills, it’s only right that they give back. Besides, from a certain perspective, that’s also a way of assigning them jobs.”

Such schools are rare.

Moreover, the compensation offered by Xu Yue, or rather Taoyuan Farm Group, was so high.

Han Lingxue had actually signed a contract as well.

However, they are somewhat different from the newly recruited students.

Most of the researchers from this agricultural research institute entered the institute as teachers.

Of course, once one's cultivation is sufficient, one will naturally begin to practice supernatural abilities.

That thing cannot be shared with outsiders.

"How are things between you and your brother?"

Xu Yue suddenly asked a personal question.

This issue was raised by Zhang Ruoxi.

The person I wanted to ask wasn't her, but Xu Yue's parents-in-law.

After all, Zhang Ruoyu and Han Lingxue are not young anymore.

"It's fine, what's wrong?"

Han Lingxue was taken aback by the question; the topic was changed rather quickly.

"Ruoxi, as my younger sister, and I, as her husband, are about to become parents," Xu Yue said with a smile. "I'm not urging you, it's just that my parents-in-law are always nagging Ruoxi about it."

When Zhang Ruoxi became pregnant, she started video chatting with her parents more often.

Han Lingxue didn't know what to say.

Zhang Ruoxi's parents are urging her to get married, but her parents are no different.

"When the feelings are there, it doesn't matter who speaks first," Xu Yue said. "That guy, Ruoxi's brother..."

Xu Yue didn't say what he was going to say next, but Han Lingxue clearly knew what he was going to say.

Zhang Ruoyu has never been proactive in relationships. It was only after Han Lingxue took the initiative to confess that they officially became a couple.

“The college will start in a few months,” Xu Yue said. “I’ll probably be even busier then.”

Han Lingxue is busy now, but it's much better than usual.

Once the college starts, there will probably be even more miscellaneous things to deal with.

Han Lingxue remained silent for a moment, then nodded.

Upon seeing this, Xu Yue smiled and then went home to boast to Zhang Ruoxi.

“I’ll find some time to talk about my brother later,” Zhang Ruoxi said. “He’s such a blockhead.”

The last four characters were not referring to Xu Yue, but to Zhang Ruoyu.

Is Zhang Ruoyu stupid?
He's clearly not stupid; in fact, he's quite intelligent.

Zhang Ruoxi and her two siblings are all highly intelligent.

However, compared to Zhang Ruohai, a playboy, Zhang Ruoyu was rather dense when it came to relationships.

"You said they're getting married, what should we give them as a wedding gift?" Xu Yue suddenly asked. "Giving them money would be too low-class."

Zhang Ruoyu is not short of money.

Han Lingxue's family seems to be well-off, though obviously not as wealthy as the Zhang family.

Besides, they aren't people who care that much about money.

"I've already covered the wedding ingredients," Zhang Ruoxi said. "I'll also teach Sister Han a better breathing technique later."

“If she marries your brother, it would be only natural to teach her a good breathing technique,” ​​Xu Yue said. “As for packing the ingredients, that’s even more appropriate.”

not enough!

This is what Xu Yue meant.

"Aren't they building villas in the village?" Zhang Ruoxi said, "How about we give them one as a gift?"

"Good!"

Xu Yue nodded.

"Speaking of the wedding, when are you going to Guangzhou?" Zhang Ruoxi asked.

"Us?" Xu Yue shook his head and said, "If I go, what will you do? Mom and Dad can go, I'll stay home with you. I think your uncle and the others will understand."

"Isn't that a bad idea?" Zhang Ruoxi said. "It's not like I'm immune to instability, and I can support myself. Besides, my grandma and maternal grandma are in the village. If it's far away, I can always go to Wang Yun's place for a meal."

"My wife and kids are more important," Xu Yue shook his head and said. "It's enough for my parents to go. They can just give a bigger gift."

Xu Yue was really worried about leaving Zhang Ruoxi home alone.

Should we bring Zhang Ruoxi along?
If it's closer, then there's no problem.

It's a pity it's too far.

"Whatever you want!" Zhang Ruoxi said. "When the child is a little older, we'll take him with us to visit your uncle and his family."

That's it.

This was actually the opinion of Xu's parents-in-law.

It wouldn't look good if the whole family went to a wedding banquet and left their pregnant daughter-in-law alone at home.

"It seems the rice seedlings in the village are almost planted, right?" Zhang Ruoxi changed the subject, saying, "This year's rice harvest should be much larger, right?"

“Of course!” Xu Yue said, “The paddy fields in Gaogang Village and Qianyan Village don’t grow medicinal herbs.”

With the addition of several villages to the paddy fields, the harvest will naturally increase.

"Do you grow glutinous rice?" Zhang Ruoxi asked. "Growing some glutinous rice is quite useful."

What can you do with glutinous rice?
Avoiding zongzi (sticky rice dumplings)?
I don't know about that.

However, Zhang Ruoxi's mention of this clearly indicates that she wants to use glutinous rice to make delicious food.

Rice cake, shumai, glutinous rice sausage, glutinous rice chicken, glutinous rice balls, glutinous rice cakes, and osmanthus-scented glutinous rice lotus root.
“We’ve planted it in our yard,” Xu Yue said with a smile. “You’ll definitely be able to eat sweet fermented rice with eggs when you’re in postpartum confinement.”

You shouldn't eat fermented rice wine with eggs during pregnancy, but you can eat it during postpartum confinement.

"Am I that delicious?" Zhang Ruoxi laughed. "I just asked casually. But glutinous rice can indeed be used to make many delicacies. The farm must have grown quite a lot, I wonder if Shuxiang Pavilion and Yuelai Hotel have any corresponding snacks."

"Are you looking down on Mom's cooking?" Xu Yue said with a smile. "However, there are some things she'll probably have to learn on her own."
