After the divorce, he settled in Northwest China and became a Shennong (a legendary Chinese farmer).

Chapter 0047 Test Flight, Full-Service Trusteeship

"It's a good thing that the seedlings are breaking through the soil, but we can't be careless at this stage. After all, the seedlings need to be protected, and if we are not careful, all our efforts may be wasted."

As the camera zooms out, what everyone sees in the picture is the word "hope".

Most people were very excited, as they had witnessed the greyhound's journey and how much hard work had led to the saplings they saw before them.

Next, they want to see the daily field management, topdressing, and pesticide application processes, then the rapeseed flowers bloom, and finally the bumper harvest.

Gu Tong wandered around the alfalfa and rapeseed fields, not venturing too far, but the live stream was very successful.

Around noon, he ended the broadcast and returned home.

Just as he was preparing lunch, he received a call from Lin Hao.

"Gu Tong, will you be home this afternoon? I'm planning to go check out your drone and take you for a test flight."

"Yes, I'm home. Thank you, I've been looking forward to this day for a long time."

Gu Tong couldn't help but laugh. The drone Zhang Chen had given him was still gathering dust at home. He hoped to master the operation of the drone as soon as possible, so that it might come in handy soon.

"Okay, I'll come find you this afternoon."

Lin Hao then hung up the phone.

Gu Tong quickly cooked and ate, not daring to sleep too much at noon, and got up after only a short nap.

Around 3 p.m., Lin Hao drove to Gu Tong's house.

"Your yard is really big, but you should still go to an open space outside to fly your drone."

Lin Hao soon saw the other party's DJT50 agricultural drone. This machine is sturdy and durable, with a large payload capacity, making it a good model.

He then went with Gu Tong to an open space away from the yard. This time, he started by talking about loading and unloading batteries, and specifically mentioned emergency handling under heavy loads.

"Gu Tong, try doing as I say. Don't be afraid, I'm watching you closely. If anything unexpected happens, I can take over control at any time."

Lin Hao is not a professional training instructor, but he has a wealth of practical experience and his lectures are full of valuable insights.

He then let Gu Tong do it, believing that the other party could definitely do it.

This learning method is not suitable for most people. To learn from Lin Hao, one must first have a certain foundation, and secondly, have a good understanding and feel for the game.

"good!"

Without further ado, Gu Tong controlled the drone to take off and soar into the blue sky.

Climbing, circling, turning around, flying low, and landing—all the steps went smoothly without any mistakes.

"Your sense of direction and spatial awareness is really good!"

Lin Hao praised Gu Tong again, and then proceeded with the loaded flight.

The medicine box contained water. As soon as Gu Tong controlled the drone to take off, he immediately sensed the difference.

"The liquid will slosh around as the drone's flight attitude changes, so you need to pay special attention to the drone's center of gravity. Don't panic, just watch me operate."

Noticing that Gu Tong was having trouble controlling the device, Lin Hao immediately gave a prompt and took over the control panel to demonstrate.

After Gu Tong took over again, he felt much better. Although the flight was still clumsy, the overall attitude of the drone was maintained well.

"Alright, that's all for today. You can now confidently conduct empty flights and quickly learn how to plan routes and perform precise deliveries with the support of BeiDou navigation."

Gu Tong practiced for nearly three hours and made great progress.

Lin Hao finished teaching in the afternoon, encouraged the other student to practice more, and assigned homework.

"Thank you, Lin Hao! It's getting late, let's go to the village for a meal together, and then you can go back."

Gu Tong sincerely expressed his gratitude and then invited the other party to have dinner together.

"Sure, I'll treat you to a meal then. I happen to have something I'd like to talk to you about."

This time, Lin Hao did not refuse. The two first put the drone at home, and then each drove a pickup truck straight to the countryside.

There are only a few restaurants in the village. The food is okay, but there isn't much variety.

Gu Tong ordered four dishes and a soup. Since both of them were driving, they didn't order any alcohol, but asked the owner to bring two bottles of soft drinks.

"Gu Tong, I see so many farm machines parked in your yard. You must have finished the spring planting by now, right?"

As the two ate and chatted, Lin Hao suddenly brought up the matter of spring planting.

Gu Tong nodded and said, "Yes, spring planting is long over, and all the seeds have sprouted. What about you? What did you plant this season?"

"I've been too lazy to farm these past few years, so I've leased all my land to others. But this year, when the contract expired, the other party didn't renew it, and I can't find a new tenant for the time being, so the land has just been left there."

"Oh? What a waste to leave the land uncultivated! If all else fails, just grow it yourself, anything will do."

"I don't have time. I not only provide drone operation services in this county, but I also have clients in several surrounding counties. Gu Tong, I won't hide it anymore. I heard that you and a few others provide agricultural machinery services. How about I entrust my land to you for management?"

Lin Hao had originally planned to take Gu Tong to test fly the new aircraft a few days ago, but the land contracting issue had left him overwhelmed.

He had no other choice but to remember Gu Tong.

Since the other party can provide agricultural machinery services, they might also be able to provide full-service management, which would eliminate the need for him to find someone to contract his land.

"Full trusteeship? We did consider it before, but we didn't implement it. I need to discuss this with my partners and give them an answer first thing tomorrow morning."

The so-called full-scale management includes everything from tilling to sowing, from sowing to field management, and finally harvesting and returning straw to the field.

Apart from the costs of fertilizers, pesticides, and irrigation being borne by the host, all other aspects are the responsibility and expense of the trustee.

Gu Tong had previously set a standard price for full-time childcare services, but the price for Lin Hao had to be discounted, otherwise it wouldn't make sense.

But he needed to discuss this with Dong Jun and the others, otherwise breaking the rules would be bad for everyone.

"OK! Looking forward to your message."

Lin Hao made a gesture, then continued eating and drinking.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the two parted ways in the village, and Gu Tong went straight home.

"Little Stone, I brought you some food."

Upon entering the courtyard, Gu Tong's first action was to call out to Xiao Shitou.

Like a nighttime assassin, Little Stone darted out of the shadows and pounced on Gu Tong.

The little guy has grown very fast lately, and I enjoy playing with him more and more.

"Okay, let's eat first."

Gu Tong played with Xiao Shitou for a while, then poured the food she was carrying into the iron basin.

Little Stone started eating in the yard. Gu Tong went to wash her hands and then sent a message to Dong Jun and the others, asking them to come over the next morning to discuss something.

Dong Jun and the others replied to the messages, all saying they would arrive on time.

Gu Tong then continued operating on her phone, applying to join a "Super Pilot Group" using the group number Lin Hao had given her.

According to Lin Hao, the group members come from all over the country, including many big names, and they often share their experiences and knowledge about drone operation.

Joining the group requires an introduction, and he filled in "Desert Thief" in the introducer field.
