She was robbed by the leader of the family and had three children.

Chapter 610: Sowing Delayed

This year's sowing will definitely be delayed!

Because it’s already the end of March, but the temperature hasn’t risen much!

The temperature is still around minus four or five degrees Celsius, the sky is still overcast, the sun is not out, and it looks like it's going to snow heavily again soon!

Everyone was in a very solemn mood.

Especially leaders like Huo Yisheng and Political Commissar Lin.

If the temperature doesn’t rise, we won’t be able to plant crops in spring, which will directly affect everyone’s food supply this year!

After the beginning of spring last year, there were not many laborers working in the fields because of missions, dormitory construction, and time spent on land reclamation, so the amount of food obtained from farming was not particularly large.

After this winter, most of what we have is already eaten, and the remaining food will only last until autumn at most!

If everything goes according to plan, and the sowing is done normally in spring, the early-maturing crops can be harvested in two months, then they will definitely not have the problem of food shortage and famine!

But now, the crisis of food shortage is right in front of them like a nail in the coffin!

Huo Yisheng and Political Commissar Lin held a small meeting. Political Commissar Lin analyzed the situation for everyone: "If famine really occurs in the desert this year, it will definitely be a huge obstacle for us to recruit and teach in the eighteen villages!"

Huo Yisheng tapped the table with his finger and agreed: "Old Lin is right!"

Never underestimate the unreasonable behavior of ordinary people.

Our ancestor Confucius once said, "A gentleman is concerned with righteousness, while a villain is concerned with profit." What he meant was that a gentleman understands morality, while a villain understands profit.

The "villain" here does not mean the bad person in the popular sense today.

But it refers to ordinary people.

The greatest need of ordinary people is survival, so what they value and pursue most is interests, which are the real interests that can guarantee their survival and better lives!

To them, any empty and glorious titles are useless and empty.

Therefore, considering the matter of taking over the eighteen villages and combining these ideas with the current situation, Huo Yisheng could probably guess the direction of their demands!

That's food!

Food will definitely be one of their demands at that time!

Therefore, the top priority is to solve the food problem.

If the wasteland cannot bloom in spring and sow seeds on schedule, we must think of other ways.

But how to solve it?

This question, like the gray sky, weighs on everyone's mind.

Seeing Huo Yisheng always looking so gloomy, Ye Shu also became anxious: "Sure enough, this is really like living at the mercy of fate!"

If the weather isn't favorable and the sky doesn't clear up, the temperature doesn't rise, and the snow doesn't melt, they will never be able to sow the seeds!

Huo Yisheng was upset outside, but when he got home, he still tried to smile, talked to his wife, and helped her take care of the three little ones.

Ye Shu wrote some cards with some very simple words and numbers on them so that they could start to recognize them.

It's a way of learning while playing, and I don't ask them to learn a lot. I just treat it as an enlightenment through play.

But the couple have lived together for many years, and she can still feel whether his mood is good or bad.

She was making dinner and was looking for ingredients in her space bag.

Suddenly, she found the rice, flour and canned food with English letters printed on the packaging bags that she had put away earlier.

In fact, she does eat rice and noodles, but she really doesn't eat canned meat or canned fish. In the past one or two years, her family has only eaten them once or twice.

After all, there are fresh fish and meat in the space bag that can be stewed, roasted, fried or stir-fried. Why should we eat those canned foods that have been processed through technology and hard work!

But these canned foods are good things for the camp that is about to run out of food!

She took out a can, handed it to Huo Yisheng, and said, "Can you find a chance to take these out when the time comes?"

There are so many, enough to feed the soldiers in the camp for a long time!

Huo Yisheng was surprised, then thought for a moment: "This can be solved. I can find an empty house to put it in advance. I will bring people to move it later and say that it was secretly distributed by the higher-ups."

Anyway, he has the final say, and no one will really check with the higher-ups. The key is that they have no way to check!

Ye Shu: "Then should I put out some more food?"

The food she prepared was enough to last for more than ten years, and the surplus could be given away.

Huo Yisheng shook his head: "Don't worry about food for now."

He knew that his wife loved to eat white rice and white flour, not only her, but also the three little ones.

The things hidden in her secret space will have to last for three years, so she can't take them out rashly.

But: "These cans can be used to plan for something."

He narrowed his eyes and said, "There's nothing I can do. I can only shamelessly ask for food from the higher-ups!"

He is leading a combat team, so food and fodder are essential no matter what!

But he also knew in his heart that even though he could ask for it, the higher-ups might not necessarily allocate grain.

For now, we can only take one step at a time.

The soldiers in the camp still come and go, carrying out various secret missions.

The days quietly entered April, the sky was still gray, there was no sunshine, the temperature did not rise, and the snow did not melt.

Everyone's mood became increasingly heavy.

Finished!

It’s difficult to grow crops this year!

But there is also good news. Zhao Xingyang has finally made a major breakthrough!

That day, he hurried back to the camp and went straight to Huo Yisheng's house. As soon as he entered the door, he patted Huo Yisheng on the shoulder and said, "We succeeded! We finally succeeded! Old Huo! We can go back now!"

Ye Shu's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Go back? Could he finally go back to Island Number Three?

Huo Yisheng pulled his hand off his shoulder and asked calmly, "Have you completed the entire project?"

Zhao Xingyang's smile froze: "Oh, how could you be such a spoiler!"

"One tenth of the project is finally complete! I finally made this breakthrough! Can't you give me a little morale? Why do you have to be so disappointing?!"

"With someone like you, I guess my sister-in-law would find it very boring to be with you!"

Huo Yisheng responded calmly, "Well, I'll go to your house later and ask Zhu Lai Di how much fun you have with her. I'll learn from her."

Zhao Xingyang became obedient instantly!

Ye Shu poured him a cup of hot water, then took the three little ones to the next room, giving them space to talk about business.

Zhao Xingyang took two sips of hot water and said, "Really?! Our team broke through this level half the time ahead of schedule! It's worth celebrating!"

Huo Yisheng nodded and said "hmm": "So? What did you just say about going back to Island No. 3?"

Zhao Xingyang held up two fingers and said, "First, we need to take the finished product back for deep-sea pressure testing. I've tried it, and the river here isn't deep enough, and the pressure isn't high enough either."

"Second, the experimental materials for the next phase can be shipped over!"
