Chapter 011 Wife
Wang Hao's face contorted with envy, thinking to himself, "This is definitely a photo trick! Even if a woman this beautiful existed in real life, it wouldn't be Lin Qiye, the farm manager, who would have such a chance!"
The partner he matched with was also pretty, but compared to Lin Qiye, it was like the difference between an ordinary passerby and a celestial being!
Why should I?!
Just then, the levitation express slowly arrived at the station.
"Beep—The vehicle has arrived at the station. Please watch your step."
Lin Qiye patted Wang Hao on the shoulder: "Let's go, get in the car."
The two boarded the express bus one after the other.
The carriage wasn't crowded. Lin Qiye found a window seat and sat down, while Wang Hao quietly sat down opposite him, across the aisle.
Wang Hao was distracted the whole way.
He opened his personal terminal and clicked on his partner's photo.
The girl in the photo has an ordinary appearance, with a few freckles on her face, but she looks quite honest and kind when she smiles.
Wang Hao felt increasingly frustrated as he looked at the picture. When he recalled the fleeting glimpse of Bai Muxi's profile picture earlier, his sense of imbalance grew even stronger.
"It's definitely a photo fraud!" Wang Hao gritted his teeth and repeated to himself.
He simply couldn't believe that Lin Qiye could find such an exceptional partner!
Or perhaps that woman has some unknown flaw!
The suspended express line was traveling smoothly, and the scenery outside the window was rushing by.
The high-rise buildings gradually receded into the distance, replaced by endless standardized farmland.
These farmlands are divided into countless huge blocks, where various crops thrive under the regulation of artificial lighting and precise temperature control systems.
Large, semi-automated agricultural machines can be seen parked in the fields from time to time.
These semi-automated agricultural machines require operators like these administrators.
Wang Hao remained lost in his own thoughts, occasionally stealing a glance at Lin Qiye with a complex expression.
He really couldn't understand it. Lin Qiye was not only handsome, but also had such good luck.
This is outrageous!
That woman must have some hidden illness.
Or is he just particularly bad-tempered?
Otherwise, how could it be Lin Qiye's turn?
Wang Hao thought about it more and more and felt that his guess made sense, which made him feel a little better.
Lin Qiye completely ignored Wang Hao's inner monologue.
He closed his eyes to rest, but in his mind he was carefully studying the "Eight Treasures Exercise".
This set of exercises is indeed much more sophisticated than the "128th Set of Broadcast Gymnastics".
Not only are there corresponding breathing techniques, but there are also some requirements for subtle control of the body.
This is also why it cannot be promoted.
School teachers find teaching broadcast gymnastics too troublesome, why would they teach you this for free?
So what if you have a big face?
"When I get home tonight, I must learn from my wife..." Lin Qiye thought to himself.
Soon, the express train arrived at the station and a notification sound rang out.
"We have arrived at the 950th stop in the 16th Grain District. Passengers going to farms 930 to 960, please disembark here."
Lin Qiye and Wang Hao stood up together.
"I'm going to Farm 952, that way," Wang Hao pointed in a direction. "And you? Which way to Farm 939?"
"I'm going this way," Lin Qiye pointed in the opposite direction.
"Alright, I'll contact you again later. Best wishes for your work." Wang Hao waved his hand dismissively and headed straight for his farm.
Following the signs, Lin Qiye quickly found the management office of Farm No. 939.
This is a three-story building with a simple and unadorned exterior.
Lin Qiye walked into the reception hall on the first floor and showed his identity information and assignment notice to a staff member who was operating a terminal.
"Lin Qiye, right? Welcome to Farm 939. I'm the logistics manager here, my surname is Zhang." A middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties and was slightly overweight greeted him warmly.
Supervisor Zhang gave Lin Qiye a brief introduction to the farm's basic information, job responsibilities, and precautions.
Farm 939 mainly grows high-energy nutrient grains and several special cash crops.
Supervisor Zhang showed Lin Qiye around the work environment, gave him some basic tools, and activated his employee ID card using his personal terminal.
"Your work area is Zone C-7, where the main crop is 'Golden Harvest No. 1' high-energy nutrient grains. Here's the operation manual and a map of the area; familiarize yourself with it first. Today is mainly to show you around the place; you'll officially start working tomorrow." Supervisor Zhang handed Lin Qiye a data panel.
Lin Qiye took the data panel and glanced through it.
The job of a farm manager sounds simple, but it is actually quite tedious.
First, you need to be proficient in operating various semi-automated agricultural machinery, including seeders, fertilizer applicators, irrigation system controllers, and most importantly, harvesters.
Although these machines are touted as semi-automatic, many key aspects still require human intervention and adjustment, especially when dealing with crops at different growth stages and unexpected situations.
Secondly, he needs to conduct daily monitoring of the crops in the C-7 zone he is responsible for.
This includes observing crop growth and recording growth data, such as plant height, leaf color, and signs of pests and diseases.
All of this data needs to be uploaded in real time to the farm's central database via personal terminals for analysis by the technical department.
Finally, he was also responsible for the daily maintenance and basic troubleshooting of the relevant equipment in the area.
For example, checking whether irrigation pipes are unobstructed, whether sensor readings are accurate, and the lubrication and cleaning of agricultural machinery.
If you discover a problem that you cannot solve on your own, you need to report it promptly.
This job requires not only physical strength, but also meticulousness and a strong sense of responsibility.
Supervisor Zhang led Lin Qiye to Section C-7.
Looking out, there is a field of golden grains, growing vigorously and emitting a faint fragrance.
"This is 'Golden Harvest No. 1,' one of the main food crops in our galaxy. It has a high energy conversion rate and tastes good," Manager Zhang explained. "Your job is to ensure they grow successfully until they are ripe for harvest."
Several agricultural machines that Lin Qiye had just seen on the expressway were parked nearby.
"These are the 'Cultivator Type III' multi-functional operating platforms, which integrate multiple functions such as sowing, fertilizing, and weeding. They are easy to operate, and there are detailed tutorials on the data panel. That big guy over there is the 'Harvest Beast No. 5' combine harvester. You will use it when the crops are ripe."
Supervisor Zhang pointed to each piece of machinery and introduced them one by one.
Lin Qiye listened attentively, nodding occasionally.
Although he was focused on cultivating martial arts, he would do his best to do this job since he had accepted it.
Moreover, a stable job means a stable income.
Whether for the sake of the family or to support Bai Muxi's cultivation, this is necessary.
"Alright, today you can familiarize yourself with the environment and take a look at the operation manual. If you don't understand anything, feel free to ask me through the internal communication or ask other senior employees. The atmosphere at our farm is pretty good, and everyone will be happy to help." Manager Zhang patted Lin Qiye on the shoulder and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Manager Zhang," Lin Qiye said gratefully.
After Manager Zhang left, Lin Qiye wandered around the C-7 area alone.
He opened the data panel and began to seriously study the operation methods of the agricultural machinery and the knowledge of crop maintenance.
Other farm managers would occasionally drive by in small patrol cars past his assigned area, mostly just glancing at him curiously without exchanging much conversation.
Lin Qiye was happy to have some peace and quiet and focused intently on his studies.
He discovered that although agricultural technology in this era was highly developed, it still could not function without human management and decision-making.
The so-called "modern farmer" is not as simple as he initially imagined.
The day passed quickly.
When his personal terminal notified him that it was time to leave work, Lin Qiye stretched and felt a little tired, but more than that, he felt a sense of fulfillment.
He gained a basic understanding of the job and began to make some new plans for his future life.
"Go home! My wife should have dinner ready by now; she's going to teach me the Eight Treasures Kung Fu tonight!"
Thinking of Bai Muxi, Lin Qiye unconsciously smiled and his steps became much lighter.
……
Lin Qiye returned to apartment 1314 in Building B of Xiangyang Garden and used his terminal access to open the door.
"Honey, I'm home!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Bai Muxi walked out.
She was wearing a tight-fitting black training suit.
It outlines her curvaceous and sexy figure.
Sweat soaked her temples and clothes, clinging to her skin, with a few strands of wet hair sticking to her smooth, full forehead, adding a touch of post-workout sexiness.
Her cheeks were flushed with a healthy rosy glow from the vigorous exercise, and she was breathing slightly out of breath.
Upon hearing Lin Qiye's natural "wife," Bai Muxi's body visibly stiffened, the blush on her cheeks seemed to deepen, and her eyes became somewhat evasive.
She hesitated for a moment, as if she were mentally preparing herself, but finally mustered her courage and spoke in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, yet clearly reaching Lin Qiye's ears: "Husband... you're back."
