Seeing his grandfather's excitement, Cheng Zongyang quickly said, "Calm down, Grandfather. This meeting tonight is to explain everything and to arrange what comes next."
After calming his excited grandfather, Cheng Zongyang began to explain, "Remember three months ago, when I had everyone dig pits and bury those animal carcasses? It was for this rice.
I bought this stalk from a traveling merchant. I heard the rice comes from overseas.
When I first bought it, it was just a single seedling, which I planted in the mountains. According to him, this type of rice has an extremely high yield, but I didn't ask about its specific origins. I just followed the cultivation method he described.
When I went to check on it tonight, I saw that it was mature, so I harvested it.
So, for next spring's planting, I plan to find him and buy more of this type of rice.
