I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha

"What...what kind of monster is that?!"

Following Academician Liu's horrified gaze, one could see dust billowing and obscuring the sky at the entrance of Jiangjia Village Super Farm.

A black Ford Raptor pickup truck, like a beast tearing through the dust, took the lead.

Jiang Chen stood casually in the back of the pickup truck, an unlit cigarette dangling from his mouth, a playful smile on his face.

He looked at the group of experts in white coats who were already terrified on the ridge in the distance, raised his hand, and waved it heavily downward in the air!

"Set off!"

At a single command!

The dozen or so [Heavy-duty Combined AI Harvesters] that had been redeemed from the system behind him started moving!

Those were real steel behemoths!

Each one is over three meters tall!

The massive tracks rolled into the solid ground, leaving deep imprints.

They formed a perfectly standard formation of wild geese, moving slowly yet with an unstoppable momentum, as they simultaneously entered the golden rice paddy!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The roar of more than a dozen huge engines starting up at the same time created a terrifying sound wave that was deafening!

The scorching heat from the exhaust pipe even caused visible distortion and fluctuations in the surrounding air!

This scene!

It was ten times more spectacular and awe-inspiring than any military movie depicting a convoy of armored vehicles in a parade!

"Oh my god..."

The young assistant next to Academician Liu plopped down on the ground, dropping the labor measuring instrument in his hand into the mud, but he was completely unaware.

He just stared blankly at the steel torrent approaching them, muttering unconsciously to himself.

"Is this...is this some kind of alien invasion of Earth?"

"Boom—Rumble!"

More than a dozen harvesters, without the slightest pause, charged directly into the depths of the rice paddies in a terrifyingly uniform manner.

The enormous rotating gears in front of them, like the gaping maw of an ancient beast, began to spin rapidly.

Wherever they went!

Those lush, towering fields of super rice, which experts considered treasures, were instantly swallowed up in swathes!

Not a single bit wasted!

Harvesting, hulling, screening, removing impurities, drying, bagging...

An extremely complex assembly line process is completed seamlessly within the vast interior space of each harvester!

The whole process was so fast that no one could react at all!

In less than ten minutes!

Experts estimated that it would take at least five or six strong laborers a whole day to harvest a whole acre of rice with sickles, but one harvester completely cleaned it up!

All that remained was a neat pile of straw scraps.

At the other end of the harvester, a huge discharge port was spitting out sealed white woven bags filled with golden rice, just like laying eggs, with a "plop" and a "plop".

This is hardly agricultural work.

This is clearly a one-sided, inhumane attack!

Such a huge commotion quickly alerted farmers in several surrounding towns.

They all dropped what they were doing in the fields and ran in groups to the nearby hillside to watch.

When thousands of people simultaneously witnessed that miraculous scene in the rice paddies below the mountain.

Everyone was terrified.

Their mouths were agape, their eyes glazed over, as if they were witnessing the end of the world.

A dark-skinned, thin old man who had farmed all his life dropped his sickle to the ground with a clang.

He slapped himself hard across the face, then rubbed his eyes to make sure he wasn't dreaming.

His voice trembled as he pointed at the steel behemoths wreaking havoc in the rice paddies below the mountain.

"I...my mother!"

"What...what is that thing? Is it still for farming?"

"That's practically like operating an aircraft carrier!"

The farmers around him were also in an uproar.

"Good heavens! Jiangjia Village is going to take off like this!"

"Look at that speed! My God, the entire town combined, working for a month, wouldn't even equal what that one lump of iron does in half a day!"

"Is this any way for anyone to live? Who will dare to compete with Jiangjia Village in farming anymore?"

On the ridge of the field, Wang Dagou was wearing a pair of brightly colored shorts, his upper body bare, revealing his dark, muscular physique.

He stood with his hands on his hips, looking at the dumbfounded villagers on the hillside, his face full of pride and smugness.

He yelled at the top of his lungs, unleashing a torrent of words into the hillside with his booming voice.

"Did you all see that?! Huh?!"

"Open your dog eyes and see clearly!"

"This is the magnificent agricultural enterprise of our Jiangjia Village! A benchmark for the future of agriculture!"

"You all better learn this the hell!"

Wang Dagou's clamor did not arouse any resentment; on the contrary, it made the farmers even more fascinated, their eyes filled with envy and awe.

In just half a day.

Tens of thousands of acres of super rice were harvested by these steel behemoths, with more than half of it being harvested.

Throughout the farm, there were piles of white woven bags filled with new rice, as high as small mountains.

Heavy trucks bearing the "Jiang Group" logo shuttled back and forth in the farm, continuously transporting bags of super new rice to the newly built, fortress-like giant granary in the village.

Inside the granary, the newly harvested rice was piled up like mountains, its golden light almost blinding.

Jiang Chen nimbly jumped down from the bed of the Raptor pickup truck.

He walked up to a bag of rice that had just been filled and casually tore open a hole in it.

He grabbed a handful of freshly husked rice, which was still slightly warm.

Each grain of rice was plump and translucent, shimmering with a warm, pearly luster in the sunlight.

A pure, fresh scent of rice wafts over you.

"Glug."

Beside him, Hu Lahua, who was in charge of the village's canteen, couldn't help but swallow hard as she looked at the new rice in Jiang Chen's hand.

Her eyes shone like two searchlights.

Jiang Chen smiled as he looked at her greedy expression.

He carefully put the handful of rice back into the rice bag, then spoke crisply and decisively to Hu Lahua.

"Sister Hua, stop looking."

"Go, take someone to fill a bag and take it to the kitchen."

"Steam the first pot of rice in Jiangjia Village as quickly as possible, so that all the brothers who are working can have a taste!"
