Chapter 217 Pays Off

One summer afternoon, Li Xiangqian sat under a tree beside the field, looking at the crops growing vigorously, and his heart was filled with satisfaction. He knew that his efforts were not in vain, and the land was slowly recovering. And he also learned more knowledge from it, becoming more determined and confident.

"Xiaomei, I think we can try organic farming again to make the land more fertile." Li Xiangqian suddenly came up with this idea.

"Xiang Qian, what you said makes sense. We can take it step by step." Li Xiaomei nodded in agreement. She knew that every decision her husband made was well considered.

Li Xiangqian stood on the ridge of the field, looking at the abundant harvest, and was filled with indescribable excitement. After several months of hard work, the corn and soybeans in the field grew very strong and green, making people feel relaxed and happy. He knew that all this was the result of everyone's joint efforts. He decided to gather the villagers to share the joy of the harvest together.

One evening, Li Xiangqian stood under a big tree at the entrance of the village and rang the village bell. This bell had not been rung in the village for many years, and it represented important events and notices. Upon hearing the bell, the villagers put down their work and gathered under the big tree.

"Xiang Qian, what's the big deal?" Uncle Wang was the first to arrive and asked, panting.

Li Xiangqian smiled and said, "Uncle Wang, today is a good day. I want to share some good news with everyone."

Soon, the villagers gathered under the big tree, with curiosity and anticipation on their faces. Li Xiangqian cleared his throat and began to speak.

"Fellow villagers, after several months of hard work, our land has finally produced a good harvest. Today, I have called everyone here to distribute this abundant harvest so that every family can eat fresh food."

As soon as the words fell, the crowd burst into warm applause and cheers. The villagers talked about it, with happy smiles on their faces.

"Xiang Qian, you are really a great benefactor of our village!" Brother Liu said with emotion, his eyes full of gratitude.

"Everyone's hard work has not been in vain. These grains are the result of our joint efforts." Li Xiangqian answered modestly, his eyes sweeping across every face, his heart filled with warmth.

At this time, Qin Huairu came over. She was the village women's director and was always capable and enthusiastic. Li Xiangqian said to her, "Huairu, please help distribute food to everyone and make sure every household gets a fair share."

"Okay, go ahead. I will definitely live up to everyone's expectations." Qin Huairu nodded with a determined look on her face. She called a few women and started to get busy.

During the grain distribution process, Li Xiangqian was always there to assist, ensuring that every bag of grain was delivered to the villagers accurately. The villagers lined up neatly, with happy smiles on their faces. Li Xiangqian felt extremely satisfied watching this scene. He knew that his and everyone else's efforts had finally paid off.

"Xiang Qian, these foods are enough for our family to eat for several months. Thank you so much." Uncle Wang took the food and said excitedly.

"Uncle Wang, you're welcome. This is the result of our joint efforts." Li Xiangqian responded with a smile. He knew that his hard work was recognized by everyone, which was his greatest comfort.

At night, Li Xiangqian and Li Xiaomei sat in the yard, looking at the starry sky. Li Xiaomei held Li Xiangqian's hand and said gently: "Xiangqian, you are such a good person, everyone is grateful to you."

"These are what we should do. Only when everyone lives a good life can I feel at ease." Li Xiangqian sighed softly. He still had thoughts and plans for the future in his heart.

It was late at night, and the courtyard was quiet, with only the rustling of leaves in the breeze. Li Xiangqian lay in bed, and the scenes of the day kept appearing in his mind. He knew that the road ahead was still long and there were still many things to do. He was determined to continue working hard to make life in the village better and better.

The next morning, Li Xiangqian got up early and continued to work in the fields. He found that after this good harvest, the villagers were more motivated and their enthusiasm for work was also greatly increased. Li Xiangqian knew that only by working together could the life in the village be pushed to a new level.

One day, when Li Xiangqian was busy in the field, Qin Huairu came over with a worried look on her face. She said softly, "Xiangqian, I heard that there is a problem with the land at the west end of our village. The crops are not growing well."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiangqian immediately stopped what he was doing and asked seriously, "Huai Ru, what is the specific problem?"

"I heard that the soil of that land is a bit acidic, and the crops don't grow well." Qin Huairu explained with a frown.

Li Xiangqian nodded and immediately began to think of a solution. He knew that the soil problem had to be solved as soon as possible, otherwise it would affect the overall harvest of the village.

"Huai Ru, how about this? I'll go to that piece of land first, do a detailed soil test, and then decide how to improve it." Li Xiangqian said calmly, with a hint of determination in his eyes.

"Okay, I'll go with you." Qin Huairu nodded in agreement.

Li Xiangqian and Qin Huairu came to the land at the west end of the village. Li Xiangqian squatted down, grabbed a handful of soil, and observed and kneaded it carefully. He found that the soil of this land was indeed somewhat acidic and hardened, and it was obviously in need of improvement.

"Huai Ru, I think this land needs some lime to neutralize the acidity, and then apply organic fertilizer to improve the soil structure." Li Xiangqian analyzed, his tone full of professionalism and confidence.

"Okay, let's take action immediately." Qin Huai answered decisively. She knew that Li Xiangqian's judgment was always accurate.

In the following days, Li Xiangqian and the villagers began to improve the land. They brought in lime and spread it evenly on the surface, then plowed the land to mix the lime and soil thoroughly. Then, they applied a large amount of organic fertilizer to improve the structure and fertility of the soil.

After a period of hard work, the soil condition of the land improved significantly and the crops began to thrive. Li Xiangqian looked at all this and felt a sense of accomplishment and joy in his heart. He knew that his hard work had once again paid off.

"Xiang Qian, you are really the lucky star of our village!" The villagers exclaimed with happy smiles on their faces.

Li Xiangqian smiled modestly and said: "Everyone's efforts are the key. As long as we work together, there is no problem that cannot be solved."

In the early morning of autumn, the sun shines through the gaps in the leaves and shines into the courtyard. The air is filled with the smell of harvest. Li Xiangqian has just returned from the fields, carrying a hoe on his shoulder and walking
