Reborn before the famine, kicking away the scumbag's family and living a carefree life.

Chapter 223 Harvest

After more than a year of planning and construction, Qiongzhou Island has been transformed from a barren island into a beautiful home.

In addition to the troops sent down from above, there are training grounds, canteens, and family living quarters here, as well as power plants, salt fields, fishing teams, fertile fields, vegetable bases, pig farms, orchards, schools, hospitals, and supply and marketing cooperatives.

The outside world is chaotic and disorderly, leaving many people feeling lost and adrift. But here, the world is orderly, peaceful, and harmonious, where people live and work in contentment.

Yuan Wenjie finally breathed a sigh of relief. He had originally planned to take five to ten years to complete these plans, but with Su Jinru's help, he completed them in just over a year.

Because there was a huge gap in funding alone, but Su Jinru helped her solve it.

And then there are the seeds. Looking across the entire country, you can't find seeds as high-quality as those provided by Su Jinru. Not only are there seeds for three seasons a year—early, mid, and late—but they're also all high-yielding, completely solving the major problem of feeding so many people on the island. It saves the country a fortune every year.

Su Jinru took out many advanced production tools from her space, which Yuan Wenjie then had copied. These tools greatly improved labor efficiency and saved a lot of labor costs.

Whether it's the planting of grains or vegetables, it's inseparable from Su Jinru's technical guidance; otherwise, we wouldn't be able to grow so much grain and such good vegetables.

Su Jinru also gave Yuan Wenjie many suggestions, such as building roads, which is also very important. With the construction of wide and smooth roads, daily travel will be very convenient for both people and vehicles, greatly saving time and labor costs.

The establishment of the pig farm has greatly improved the quality of life and happiness index of everyone on the island.

The orchards have different fruit trees that bloom and bear fruit in each season. If hundreds of acres of fertile land add a strong sense of life, then these fruit trees fulfill people's yearning for a better life.

Having enough to eat is a basic requirement; eating well is a higher enjoyment; and having extra fruit is an unexpected surprise, a feeling of wonder that people can live like this.

When many people first arrive here, they feel that the place is backward, isolated, and desolate, and their hearts are filled with gloom.

But now this place has become a beautiful home, so what if it's isolated from the world?

Outside, there is no food as plentiful, no scenery as beautiful, and no peaceful and reassuring atmosphere like here.

Everyone on the island admired Yuan Wenjie immensely.

In their minds, Yuan Wenjie was able to lead everyone to transform this deserted island into what it is today in such a short time, something that no one else could have done.

However, under Commander Yuan's leadership, many seemingly impossible things were miraculously accomplished.

For example, they grow rice three times a year, and it's very productive. They also grow potatoes and sweet potatoes, which bring in income from multiple harvests a year. When they wrote home to tell their families, many of them didn't believe them and said they were just bragging.

There were also production tools that they had never seen before and could not even imagine existed in the world, so convenient and easy to use. A good production tool could replace hundreds or thousands of laborers.

These require not only financial support, but also wisdom, vision, knowledge, and connections.

Everyone has heard that Commander Yuan had previously attended a military academy, was skilled in strategy, and made many military achievements when leading troops into battle because of his resourcefulness and ability to achieve unexpected victories.

Moreover, I heard that his family is from Beijing and has a prominent background.

His family originally planned for him to return to the capital, but he chose to come to this desolate island instead.

Many people don't understand why he would give up such a good place and come to this godforsaken place.

Unexpectedly, they succeeded at whatever they did, turning the deserted island into the paradise that everyone loves in just over a year.

What people didn't expect was that this man from a prominent family could not only take up a gun and fight, but also roll up his trousers and walk into the muddy fields to do farm work with everyone. He also had the ability to get the best seeds and the most powerful production tools.

His wife was also very capable; she was an expert in planting various crops, as well as cultivating vegetables and fruit trees.

Following someone like that, whether you're in the army, fighting a war, farming, or doing manual labor, whatever you do will be quite exciting.

Because following him gives me hope and a future.

By the way, they are still soldiers, still training and patrolling every day. It is an honor to serve under someone like Commander Yuan.

For Su Jinru, she felt a great sense of accomplishment in helping Yuan Wenjie complete the planning and construction of Qiongzhou Island and turning it into the way she had imagined.

Although the islanders all attributed everything to Yuan Wenjie, she was happy to hear others praise Yuan Wenjie, and it made her even happier than if she were praised herself.

She has never been the type to seek the limelight.

During the famine, she gave credit to Jin Gui for saving so many people. Now, Yuan Wenjie has turned the deserted island into a beautiful home, and she is willing to stand behind him and assist him. Moreover, they themselves have indeed made many efforts that she could not do.

She always believed that she had this space to help others and help them achieve their goals.

Fortunately, she didn't misjudge them; they were all worth her effort.

Moreover, this bracelet originally belonged to Yuan Wenjie's ancestors. It was just a coincidence on the surface, but in reality, it was all preordained that she would meet Yuan Wenjie in this way and help him complete his mission.

She is already very content with having space in this life and meeting Yuan Wenjie.

Now that the fields in Su Jinru's space are empty, she has begun to plant a large number of Chinese medicinal herbs.

My future goal is to earn money to support my family and become wealthy.

An Ran eventually joined the army when he was sixteen.

Not long after he joined the army, he entered military academy.

This child, like his uncle, was a good student. The college entrance examination was not reinstated until eight years later, and Su Jinru did not want his best years to be wasted, so she had no choice but to choose this path.

The outside world, after more than three years of turmoil, has gradually returned to some normal order.

For example, schools have resumed classes, and some organizations are operating normally.

My second younger sister wrote a letter saying that she had followed Su Jinru's advice and sent her three children back to school to continue their studies.

The second sister also said that the elderly couple who had been staying at her house had been taken away by someone else.

I heard they used to be a very accomplished pair of scientific research experts.

He has now been taken back by an important research institution.

The revelation of the elderly couple's true identities shocked everyone in the village.

They all regretted not treating the other person better before, missing a chance to curry favor with them.
