With the help of eDonkey, although my home is relatively far away from the farm now, the time spent on the road is much the same as before.

Pushing the eDonkey to the garage, because Chi Yan arrived not too early today, there were already many vehicles parked inside. After barely squeezing her horse next to the charging pile to charge, Chi Yan rushed to the farm.

In less than a month, many new changes have taken place on this farm.

The simple greenhouse built at the end of last month has been visibly strengthened through new technologies and structures.

Today's greenhouses are supported by high-strength steel poles, and the roof is covered by a dark tarpaulin. If you lift the tarpaulin, you will find a huge transparent glass underneath.

The design of the glass seems meaningless, and it can easily lead to loss of temperature. However, the existence of this greenhouse is no longer just to serve the month of the polar night disaster. Since it has been strengthened, it can benefit the plants for a longer time. , in the future, it will still provide the most suitable growing environment for these plants.

This glass can allow sunlight to shine through in the future, making the air in the greenhouse warm and comfortable in a more resource-saving way.

In the future, more intelligent self-adjusting glass may be used. In fact, Chi Yan heard that some greenhouses have already installed it, but there is not enough of this type of glass to be popularized yet.

After going to the employee room to change into her work vest, Chi Yan walked into the greenhouse.

It was as if the air conditioner was turned on inside. Chi Yan felt a warmth as soon as she walked in, and she could clearly feel that if she refused to take off her clothes, she would definitely start to sweat later.

Looking around, you can see many different varieties of plants neatly arranged. Today's plants are no longer limited to the ground. There are also several types of plants grown without soil in the air, making this space look a little cramped. But this does not prevent the plants from growing healthy and lush through reasonable layout.

Under each plant, there is a timed spray device that sprays the plants with an appropriate amount of water and nutrients from time to time.

Above the plants, several artificial suns with slide rails are emitting yellowish light and slowly moving the light source. This is different from the sunlight that should be available in the early morning, but for the plants, what is contained in this light is An absolute wine.

In the aisles between the plants, several cart-type machines shuttled between them. They 'looked' at the status of each plant one by one, and then selectively sprayed something on some of the plants.

These machines are equipped with advanced automatic control systems. Sensitive sensors monitor environmental changes inside and outside the greenhouse and adjust temperature, humidity and light intensity in a timely manner.

Everything in the greenhouse is so orderly. In Chi Yan's eyes, with the perfect integration of these futuristic technologies here, the refreshing feeling cannot be ignored.

This place is already a ‘shelter in the era of natural disasters’ tailor-made for crops, and all crops feel like they are enjoying a comfortable hot spring here.

Therefore, every plant appears to be particularly vibrant, with bright green leaves. If it is already in, mature and fruiting stage, its fruits will be fresh and juicy, exuding a light fragrance.

The entire greenhouse has been transformed into a living organism, self-regulating and self-growing. Not only that, it is equipped with an advanced energy recovery system on the side of the greenhouse. The water and nutrients needed by the greenhouse come from recycling, reducing the waste of resources. .

For a 'farmer', there is nothing more fulfilling than seeing this.

After Chi Yan admired such scenes for a while, she reluctantly walked around them and came to her real work place.

If there were not a large number of farm tools, people who saw the work place at first glance might think it was some kind of laboratory. It is also equipped with a large number of electronic equipment with screens. There are also many people operating and debugging in front of the equipment. .

"Good morning, Chi Yan."

"Good morning, Zhang Zhu, tsk tsk tsk, you will be scolded if you are caught eating breakfast here." Chi Yan turned her head when she heard the greeting, looked at her colleagues who were having breakfast, and joked with a smile.

"It's okay, it's okay. Besides, my job today is not to operate in front of the equipment, but to be responsible for a new round of sowing. I won't dirty the equipment. Besides, the teacher doesn't mind if we eat here, and he said Let me remember to eat more. Of course, the prerequisite for me to be able to keep smiling now is that you don’t complain to the assistant coach. You shouldn’t do that, right?”

The colleague pretended to be scared and even ate breakfast much faster.

Originally, the farm was sowing fast-growing crops. During this period, due to the increase in fertilizer fertility, the optimization of seeds, and the improvement of cultivation efficiency, the number of such crops has greatly increased, and the types have become more prosperous. Many plants The growth cycle has been shortened by twice. For extremely special varieties, the growth time has even been shortened by three and a half times compared to before the era of natural disasters!

Because the alien disaster is approaching, there is no need to pursue the accumulation of "food" for the war for the time being. Now the farm has been divided into some areas for planting. Although it has been improved, the planting cycle is still more than one month, but the Easterners are more accustomed to it and more My favorite crop.

After the alien disaster begins, if it is determined that there will be no problems with food reserves this month, the proportion of this type of plants will increase.

Shaking her head in amusement, Chi Yan spared the other party, searched and printed the report from the machine on the computer, and was about to find the tools - the report showed that the equipment had detected some problems, but it was temporarily unable to Plants that solve problems non-artificially.

After all, there are more types of plants now. The properties of the plants themselves are different, and because of the growth cycle, they don’t even use the status of each other. It is difficult for the machine to adapt to all types well, and it naturally requires manual adjustments like Chi Yan.

There is also pollination. Although bees, butterflies and other creatures that act as pollinators in nature still exist in Dongguo, but this is not stable. At present, artificial pollination is still the mainstream.

On the way, she saw a farmer teacher with his back turned to her. Chi Yan was about to say hello, but she saw him bending down to talk to another person.

"What is that? I don't even understand what you are saying. Please speak clearly!"

"This is how it works, right? As long as you hold down the R key, you can... adjust... take out these things on the screen, right?" The teacher said intermittently with a somewhat unconfident voice.

The old man now speaks a mixture of Mandarin and dialects, and Chi Yan can basically understand him.

"I'm really convinced. Isn't this thing very simple? You don't have to press anything. You just click here, here, and here." The voice of the person talking to the teacher was full of impatience.

"Speak slowly, where did you press it?" The teacher even took out a small notebook from his pocket.

"Do you have to memorize only three keys? I'm really convinced. Can you change someone else's torture? Don't disturb my work, okay? Besides, you can't even recognize English letters, and you don't have a brain. So, what can you learn? Don’t waste time on this, just plant your land! It’s annoying.”

"Liu Mao, apologize to the teacher." Chi Yan greeted her. After hearing this conversation, she changed her tune and said, "You still can't change your mouth."

The girl in front of me was the one who was regarded as a typical compatriot in Lingnan City because of her extremely sarcastic words in the middle of last month. It seemed that just over a month had passed, and her mouth was not clean again.

Only then did the other party and the teacher notice Chi Yan behind them, and they both turned to look at her. Liu Mao was stunned at first. After a brief moment of guilt, she suddenly felt confident and said loudly:

"It's Chi Yan again, you bitch. What happened to me this time? Did I say something wrong? Lao Dong... the teacher is disturbing my work now and affecting my work efficiency. I don't want this to be normal. ?

I asked the teacher to farm. The teacher is a farmer. He doesn’t farm anything and specializes in arts. I am still trying to persuade the teacher not to waste energy on areas he is not good at. What’s the point? Apologetic! "

"I'm not interested in arguing with you. Since you are so confident, I will tell the assistant teacher when he comes and let him make the evaluation." Chi Yan snorted coldly, completely ignoring the other party's sophistry and spoke. That's the general.

"You..." Liu Mao's expression instantly turned ugly. She was really afraid that the conversation just now would be reported to the teaching assistant. The warning she received last month was not serious. Although she had some quibbles, whether it was considered a violation of their regulations or not was ultimately their subjective judgment.

And once you think so, you and your family will lose part of the social welfare of the East, and at worst, you will lose your identity as a East Asian.

"I'm sorry, teacher, there was something wrong with my tone just now, I'm sorry." Thinking of this, Liu Mao, although he was a little reluctant, still bent down to apologize to the people around him.

"It's okay, it's okay." The teacher just didn't care much as he always did. Instead, he scratched his head apologetically.

"And next time, I will tell the teaching assistant directly that what I like most is snitching, so you'd better keep your mouth shut."

After Chi Yan said these harsh words to Liu Mao, she immediately put on a gentle smile, pulled the teacher to her computer and said, "Teacher, let me teach you."

"well."

After carefully writing down what Chi Yan said in his notebook, the simple farmer shook his head and sighed:

"Computers are really powerful. They can actually make something like this. Xiaomao is right. I don't even know the English alphabet, so I'm really useless."

In the past month, the changes in the farm have been too great and obvious. Even for a young person like Chi Yan, it is difficult to learn to master a lot of new changes such as new planting techniques, new equipment, and new seed requirements. It's a bit difficult, not to mention someone like a 'teacher' whose own knowledge and learning ability are limited.

The farming land that was most familiar to him now seems very strange.

"Teacher, don't say that. Don't take Liu Mao's words to heart. Take your time and don't be in a hurry. You can always learn it. And how can you be useless?

I am now able to skillfully cut buds and sow seeds, all thanks to your teachings. You have always been our teacher. "Chi Yan heard the words and quickly comforted her.

"Hey, you are just children in the city, so you don't know these things. You are all very smart. I have only learned these things in my life. I have taught them all to you, and you have already learned them. , some have even done better than me.

Now, even the way of farming has changed. It’s amazing. It’s amazing. "

The old man shook his head, raised his head, looked around at the greenhouses that were very different from what he knew, and said sincerely, but then added with a smile:

"Fortunately, I won't be your teacher soon. Xiao Li said that there will be a powerful professor soon who will free up time to teach you more powerful things. You don't have to waste time with me."

"Teacher... don't be sad," Chi Yan said slowly after hesitating for a while. She knew about the change of teacher a few days ago, so she was not surprised:

"What you taught has laid a very important foundation for us. This is very important. You must not belittle yourself... Just don't look down on yourself. You are very important."

"Yanyan, there's no need to comfort me," the old man waved his hands quickly, but with a smile on his face:

"I'm not unhappy. In fact, I feel like a big burden has been lifted off me. I've never felt comfortable being a teacher. In fact, I didn't want to be a teacher for a long time. Now the professors are here to teach you. of.

Now I just want to learn these powerful and magical things! After you stop being a teacher, you can continue farming, but it seems a bit difficult. As people get older, their brains can’t keep up. How did you do it? Farming suddenly became completely different from before. It’s amazing. It’s amazing. "

"It's okay, teacher, take your time, you will eventually learn...and...in fact, there are still a lot of things that can't be done, and we have to do the work, right? These machines don't have your experience, and some Things need to be done by people like you." Chi Yan comforted her in a slow tone.

There were some bumps and bruises because she was wording her words. To a certain extent, what her teacher said was indeed correct.

In the era of natural disasters, which she thought might be brought about by "strange stones", everything was changing too fast, and it was really easy for people like the teacher to fall behind in such a wave.

The changes in the world are sometimes so ruthless.

What people like teachers were able to do in the past will seem unworthy of mentioning in the future.

But the gratitude and other emotions mentioned by Chi Yan are not false.

Because without people like them in the past, there would be no steady development of the present and a bright future. (End of chapter)
