~3 min read 445 words

Both rice and tomatoes were planted.

Wan Ping'an was just waiting for the harvest.

He prepared to go home, but before leaving, he inspected his six mu of fields again.

Pfft!

The steel fork in Wan Ping'an's hand flew out.

A fat rat was nailed to the ground by his steel fork and died.

"I should have thought of this earlier; in the fields, pests and diseases are normal."

"Once the rice and tomatoes grow out, the temptation will be even greater, and the situation will probably be even more serious."

"I have to think of some ways; not just pests and diseases, but also man-made disasters, all must be prevented in advance, otherwise, the losses will be heavy."

Wan Ping'an carried the steel fork and headed straight for the small tavern.

He was used to it.

On the way back, he would buy some wine.

He wasn't a drunkard, but he liked to drink; if he didn't drink a little, it felt like something was missing.

At this moment.

Jia Dongxu arrived at the riverside, the place where Wan Ping'an caught wild ducks.

"Young man, are you here to catch wild ducks too?"

Just as Jia Dongxu arrived at the riverside, an old man fishing, whose hair was already gray, turned his head, looked him up and down, and asked with a smile.

Many people turned their heads to look at Jia Dongxu.

"Right, how did you know?"

Jia Dongxu was very surprised.

"Of course I know."

"There's a young man who is especially amazing; every time he makes a move, he can catch several wild ducks and never returns empty-handed."

"The news has spread; the wild ducks here are stupid and easy to catch, so many people come to catch them."

"Haha, they haven't caught any wild ducks, but quite a few have fallen into the river."

"I advise you to go back!"

"Wild ducks aren't easy to catch; don't end up not catching any wild ducks and falling into the river or a mud pit yourself."

The old man advised Jia Dongxu.

Jia Dongxu frowned slightly; the person the old man mentioned who could catch several wild ducks every time must be Wan Ping'an; he had found the right place.

Others couldn't catch them because they were stupid.

Jia Dongxu was very confident; he would definitely be able to catch wild ducks, and he would definitely catch more than Wan Ping'an.

He sneered and didn't listen to the old man's advice.

"You guys guess, how long will it take for him to fall in, ten minutes or half an hour?"

"I think he's just a blockhead; I estimate five minutes at most."
