Chapter 4 Card 1
Author: Qingqing Platycodon
Later, Lao Xie, as his son, was unwilling to give up and also learned to farm. Unfortunately, his talent for farming still failed to shine. He also lost a lot of money and owed a lot of money to the villagers. It was only last year that he slowly paid it off.
Nowadays, more than ten acres of fields at home are abandoned, with grass growing on them. The hills and ponds are also abandoned. The only field left is the field not far opposite our home. I usually grow some vegetables, and that's all.
We eat vegetables at home and only grow them, but there are not a lot of them. Grandpa usually takes care of them.
Originally, Grandpa Xie wanted to rent these fields, ponds, and hills to other people in the village. Unfortunately, the majority of people left in the village now are the elderly. The young people have all gone out to work and are unwilling to do this kind of work in the fields.
Xie Ning knew her family's concerns, but she still wanted to give it a try.
"Grandpa, parents, I still want to give it a try. Otherwise, you give me an acre of land first, and I will plant vegetables and do live broadcasts first. If it works, I will consider other things. If it doesn't, forget it."
Grandpa Xie immediately agreed, "Okay, there happens to be a lot of space on the land where I grow vegetables. There is grass growing, but it can be used if it is cut and turned over."
"Yes, yes." Lao Xie and Zhang Yuqin also agreed.
"Okay, thank you grandpa, thank you parents."
In the evening, Xie Ning also met his sister-in-law Ye Xueru. Her sister-in-law is currently working as a salesperson in a supermarket in the county town. She works during the day and comes back when she is free at night.
Her father, Comrade Lao Xie, usually drives a tricycle to carry passengers when he has time, but the business is so-so. He just makes some money to support the family.
Ms. Zhang Yuqin stayed at home and took care of everyone, including three meals a day.
That night, in the dead of night, Xie Ning called for the panel in his heart, and a virtual panel appeared in front of him.
Some time ago, she stayed up late to film a rain scene and had a fever when she came back. In a daze, she somehow bound a pastoral card system with a virtual panel.
The so-called pastoral card system means that cards can be refreshed on the panel. The things on these cards are related to pastoral, can be taken out, and are unique.
Xie Ning clicked on the panel. The cards on it were divided into several types: vegetables, breeding, fruits, grains, plants, and metaphysics and science fiction.
Xie Ning looked at the metaphysics and science fiction category at the end and was slightly confused.
There are many cards in each category, but except for the first card in the vegetable category, the others are all gray and the content inside cannot be seen at all.
Xie Ning clicked on the first card in the vegetable category.
[Sweetheart cabbage: delicious +1, aids digestion +1, no need to add fertilizer for planting, no side effects. 】
[Purslane: Delicious +1, Reduces Redness and Swelling, Reduces Inflammation and Acne +2, Beautifies Beauty +1. Planting does not require the addition of fertilizers and has no side effects. 】
[Required number of live broadcast followers: 0, the first card is given for free. Refreshing the second card requires 1,000 followers]
【Do you want to redeem? Yes/No】
The first card was given for free, and two things were refreshed, sweetheart cabbage and purslane. Looking at the attributes added after the delicious food, Xie Ning had some guesses in his heart, but it still needed to be verified.
Xie Ning stretched out his hand and clicked on "Yes" with his finger.
[Redeemed. The express delivery will be delivered to the host’s home in two days. Please pay attention to the host’s receipt. 】
"It actually came by express delivery..." Will it really come? Are these two things really not necessarily certain?
If it were true, that would be great.
With excitement, Xie Ning closed the panel and fell asleep.

Xie Ning was not idle during the two days of waiting.
First, I registered an account on Penguin Live. Penguin Live is currently the largest live broadcast platform and has produced many Internet celebrities. Some of the most popular Internet celebrities are more popular and profitable than celebrities.
Xie Ning gave her account a name - Tianyuan Jiawei. Forgive her for being a bad namer, but she racked her brains to come up with this name.
Considering that he would bring goods to sell agricultural products in the future, Xie Ning also made a note for himself below. However, the vegetable seeds have not yet arrived and have not been planted yet, so naturally there is no way to sell them.
Later, Xie Ning went to the county town and bought a mobile phone tripod that could be placed on the ground for support.
In addition, she installed network cables for her home, bought a computer and a printer.
To live broadcast, WIFI is necessary, as well as a computer and a printer. This is because if someone places an order, you can cooperate with the courier company. You can print out the courier order at home and pack the package yourself. When the courier comes, you can just come and pick up the goods.
During this period, Xie Ning received calls from his two brothers who were working outside. The eldest brother Xie Yuan dropped out of school after graduating from junior high school. He was not good at studying and did not want to study. He went out to work early. Now he is thirty-two years old and works on a construction site in the next province.
I earn hard-earned money and rarely go home. I have been married to my sister-in-law for five years and have no children yet.
The second brother, Xie Qian, is thirty years old and has graduated from college. He is now working as a white-collar worker in a small company in a provincial capital. He is a social programmer with an average salary. I heard that he often has to work overtime and is always targeted by his boss.
Xie Qian is not married yet, but he has a girlfriend he has been with for three years. His parents often urge him to get married, but Xie Qian has not gotten married yet. The specific reason is unclear.
Xie Ning thought that if his card was real, he would definitely be able to gain something in live broadcasting and farming, and then he would ask his eldest brother and second brother to come back to help, so that they would not have to work so hard.
Because my grandfather and father had farmed before, we had some small agricultural equipment at home, such as lightweight lawn mowers and tillers, but they were all stored in the warehouse, but there was not much dust when they were taken out.
I heard from my mother that my grandfather and father would open the warehouse and clean all the machines when they had free time.
Although they did not have the talent for farming and were always losing money, they were sentimental about the land and the machines, so even though the family still owed money, they did not sell the agricultural equipment.
Xie Ning saw the slight twinkle in the eyes of his grandfather and father when they took out the machine from the warehouse.
Perhaps, they also have a sentiment.
Xie Ning became more determined to farm well.
After finding the lawnmower and the tiller, grandpa and dad spontaneously went to the fields.
Xie Ning will also help when he is free.
The machine was humming in the field. Grandpa held the lithium battery lawn mower in his hand and cut a piece of grass with one sweep.
"This grass is about one meter high. It's so lush."
Another burst of sound came, and Lao Xie pushed the tiller with both hands. The soil flew up wherever it passed, leaving a neat ditch.
"Dad, grandpa, let me help you." Originally, she wanted to plant it herself, so why did she have the nerve to let grandpa and dad do the work?
"No, don't come. Just your father and I will do. How much land is there?"
"Ning Ning, go home. Your dad and I can do it. We only need this little space and can finish it in ten minutes."
Sure enough, in ten minutes, all the acres of land were plowed, and there was no grass on it. Sure enough, Xie Ning had no use for it.
"There is no way to burn the cut grass." Grandpa Xie looked at the grass with a pity.
