At the beginning, he took his seven younger siblings to join Yi Zhonghai.

"We do need to prepare for the house, but it's not too early. The kids are still young, and I can't bear to let them live in their own rooms now."

"What should I do if I'm scared at night? What if I slip and fall in the bathroom?"

Tan Xiulian agreed, but also hesitated.

"That's what I thought too, but Dingya just analyzed it for me, and I think it makes sense, so I'm thinking of going to the neighborhood committee to ask tomorrow."

Yi Zhonghai nodded first, and then said.

"Analyze what?"

Tan Xiulian asked curiously.

From the first moment I saw Ding Yazi.

She felt that this child was different from others.

He got out of the car at that time.

Upright posture, firm gaze, calm and composed...

Even when facing the scrutiny of dozens of people in the compound, he showed no fear or hesitation.

That air of complete control could be described as overwhelming.

This doesn't look like a child from a remote mountain village.

At first glance.

Those who live in the capital are more like people from remote mountain villages.

She felt that she was not well-educated.

I really can't think of any other words.

However, she compared herself to other people her age in the hospital.

No one can compare to him.

After another six months or so of getting to know each other...

His daily conduct, speech, behavior, love for and protection of his family...

all in all.

I never even dared to dream of a child like this.

Although it wasn't my own child.

But it's my own blood relative, my younger brother.

She genuinely felt that God was so kind to the Yi family.

It's amazing that such a wonderful child could fall from the sky into her family.

"Ding Yazi doesn't read the newspaper every day. He said that based on the analysis of the three major reform policies, the land and houses will be taken over by the public and will no longer be able to be bought and sold privately."

Yi Zhonghai gave a brief account.

"Just like your steel rolling mill?"

Tan Xiulian didn't quite understand, but she could still make analogies.

"Yes, heavy factories like steel rolling mills have already begun restructuring, and the rights of private shareholders are being gradually taken back."

"That Lou Bancheng boss has rarely come to the factory this year, and his relatives have gradually been dismissed and replaced by government employees."

Yi Zhonghai nodded and said.

"Then let's listen to Dingya. Shall we just give up the deaf old lady's house?"

Tan Xiulian was still completely confused and could only unconditionally support her brother based on her trust in him.

"No, we were too naive before. If I wanted the deaf old lady's house, it would definitely be ours, but it would ruin our reputation and we'd be branded as opportunists."

"Everyone knows what our situation was like before, so no one would say that. But things are different now. This blame will fall on Ding Yazi and his group."

"So we can't do that. It just so happens that the old lady is closer to Zhu Zi now, so let's let him handle it."

"Anyway, we don't need those three rooms, so it doesn't matter."

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said.

"How much will it cost to buy the land? Plus, we'll have to build the house. After that, we're afraid we'll have to cut back on our spending."

As a woman who manages the household, Tan Xiulian was most sensitive to this.

"We don't know either. A courtyard house was sold on the street last week. I heard it was worth a thousand yuan. That's a 200-square-meter building with ten rooms. So the land shouldn't be too expensive."

Yi Zhonghai pointed in a direction.

"How did you know? Let me tell you, we can't let the children live outside. At worst, we can borrow a room from the deaf old lady, and the children can stay here."

"Otherwise, I'd be worrying about them every day: whether they've eaten, whether they're cold, whether they're safe. Just thinking about it makes me anxious."

Tan Xiulian thought that her husband had gone to inquire about that courtyard.

"What are you thinking? How could that be? Even Ding Yazi hasn't thought of that. I just wanted to buy that vacant back building in the courtyard, so I kept an eye on the prices."

Yi Zhonghai said without hesitation.

"The children are all quiet now, they must be asleep. I'll go check if they're properly covered with their blankets."

"I used to worry about them getting too hot, but now that Ding Yazi has made this ice tank, I'm worried about them getting too cold."

"But this temperature is really nice. We used to be so hot that we couldn't sleep, but now it's nice and cool."

Tan Xiulian got out of bed as she spoke.

She held up the oil lamp and reached her hand over the ice trough; the icy sensation instantly spread throughout her body.

"That's right, Dingya's intelligence is really rare."

"We're really enjoying ourselves."

Yi Zhonghai smiled silently.

Neither of them remembered that the deaf old lady in the backyard didn't have an ice trough.

Tan Xiulian tucked each doll in and then gently looked at their sleeping faces.

Only then did he go back to his room to sleep, completely satisfied.

Yi Zhongding waited until his sister-in-law finished her nightly routine of looking after him before immersing his consciousness in the Shennong Space.

After more than half a year of development.

The space is no longer as empty as it used to be.

First of all, the area has more than tripled, and now it's about six acres.

He changed the shape of the space from a circle to a cuboid.

Each acre of land is separated by a ridge.

Therefore, the area is immediately apparent.

Moreover, a new piece of land can appear at the boundary of space in the blink of an eye.

This is the spatial consciousness absorbing the medicinal energy and expanding on its own.

Secondly, the fields are a vibrant, lush green expanse.

Wheat, rice, corn, soybeans, and peanuts each occupied five-tenths of an acre, totaling two and a half acres.

This is the second batch.

He had harvested a crop two months ago.

However, the quantity that time was small and not worth mentioning; it merely confirmed his idea.

The space can yield three harvests of grain a year.

The other half of the land is planted with various medicinal herbs, including those native to the capital.

Such as Scutellaria baicalensis, Bupleurum chinense, Polygala tenuifolia, Anemarrhena asphodeloides, Atractylodes lancea, Codonopsis pilosula, and Paris polyphylla.

There were also medicinal herbs from other places that were gathered in the capital.

Precious ginseng, lingzhi, saffron, angelica, goji berries (modified)...

Some planted a small plot of land, while others had only two or three plants...

It's just enough to fill two and a half acres of land.

Yi Zhongding is very fortunate that any medicinal herb can grow normally here.

There's no need for complex environmental simulations.

Otherwise, its universality would be too poor.

He can no longer grow many medicinal herbs.

As for the newly expanded one mu of land.

He plans to spend his summer vacation visiting various livestock markets in Beijing.

Before the unified purchase and sales policy is released in October, buy some seedlings of common poultry, livestock, and other animals.

This little bit of open space is just enough to keep a seed.

Moreover, they were all extremely cramped.

But we can't get the breeding stock for these livestock right now.

It will be difficult to buy it in the future.

So be it, even if it's cramped.

Can we survive here?

With the increasing availability of medicinal herbs, the expansion of their distribution space is accelerating.

It won't be long before they have enough space to develop.

Yi Zhongding stood below the Shennong Altar, looking out at the rice paddies teeming with life.

A sense of inner satisfaction welled up within me.

Having experimented with the growth time and yield of staple and whole grains, he had a good idea of ​​what to expect.

After this season's planting is finished, there will be no grain planting for three or four years.

All crops will be converted to grow Chinese medicinal herbs.

Although food can also provide "medicinal energy".

However, it does not provide as much medicinal energy as Chinese medicinal herbs.

In recent years, the priority has been to develop spatial area.

We can improve the quality of development once we are able to practice medicine and treat diseases.
