Chapter 174 Hehua Fish

As the commotion caused by Liang Gong's background came to an end, the team of Class 8 of Grade 1 also returned to its former calm.

Coincidentally, the head of the staple food crops department also appeared in front of everyone along with the grade director.

The department manager was a man who looked very scholarly, wearing a white coat and a pair of decorative glasses (Kagawa: It's the year 32022, myopia has long been extinct). The only thing that surprised Kagawa was that he was wearing a straw hat on his head.

It was autumn on the 4th escort ship, so it shouldn't be so hot that you need to wear a hat...right? Kagawa raised his head and glanced at the sky. The sun was quite bright, but there were also many clouds, so it was definitely not a scorching sun.

"Good morning, freshman students. I am Wu Hongchang, the head of the staple crops department. I will lead you to the rice fields to see the entire process of rice harvesting."

As soon as the department manager said this, students from all classes cheered instantly. They looked at the rice fields behind them with eager eyes, and were eager to try, like five or six-year-old children staring at a brand new Ultraman toy.

Is that really necessary! Standing behind the crowd, biting the straw of his water bottle, Kagawa complained in his mind, not remembering the stupidity of being held back by two company members from rushing into the rice field when he first got off the transport ship.

"Chief Wu! Excuse me, what should we do with our luggage?"

A student who seemed to be a class leader in the next class asked.

Chief Wu didn't mind the student's abrupt question and answered with a smile: "The transport ship will arrange to deliver your luggage to the dormitory in the residential area. Each student's room number will be sent to the head teacher before lunch. Just confirm with the head teacher at that time."

After confirming the whereabouts of the luggage, everyone no longer had any worries and all looked at Chief Wu with shining eyes.

Fortunately, Chief Butler Wu was not the kind of person who liked to keep people in suspense, so he led everyone onto the floating platform.

This was the first time for Kagawa to ride on such a high-tech product. She looked at the platform of about one square meter that flew to her feet and felt a little nervous. However, Ouyang Yating and Ino obviously did not want to wait for their president to do anything weird again, so they repeated the same trick, holding Kagawa's arms on the left and right and lifted Kagawa up.

During this period, even though Kagawa made a lot of noise and tried to regain the president's authority which had almost disappeared, he was crushed by Liang Gong's "Haha" who just stood there motionless.

Kagawa felt like he had tried his best to throw a full-strength attack before he was exhausted, but it ended up hitting cotton, and his whole body was burned out.

According to common sense of buses in the 21st century, about eight to nine people can stand on one square meter, so it is obviously more than enough for four people to stand on a one-square-meter floating platform.

After standing firmly, Kagawa discovered that this platform was not as shaky as he had imagined. On the contrary, it was very stable. His noise just now did not affect the movement and raising and lowering of the floating platform.

There is an invisible barrier about one meter high on the floating platform to prevent people on the platform from falling down. Kagawa touched it curiously and felt like she was touching the crystal mud, a stress-relieving artifact that became popular shortly after she became a corporate slave. A colleague bought one and she was lucky enough to touch it a few times.

After everyone stood on the platform, Supervisor Wu started the teaching mode and led everyone's platform to the edge of the rice field.

There is a reason why Chief Wu asked everyone to ride on the floating platform.

The average height of mature rice is more than one meter, not to mention that the rice that has been improved and cultivated many times can even reach two meters during the harvest period. If the students go to the fields like this, not only will they trample the soil, but they will probably not be able to reach the rice ears above their heads even if they stand on tiptoe.

Xiangchuan gently stroked the plump rice ears in front of her. The mature rice was tightly wrapped in the husk. If it weren't for Manager Wu's prior reminder that there were surveillance cameras around and students were strictly prohibited from picking mature rice ears without permission, she really wanted to pluck a few rice plants to demonstrate the threshing, drying and husking processes by herself, and then cook herself some fragrant white rice.

If there is braised pork or mushroom chicken thigh, it would be even better. Xiangchuan caressed the golden rice ears in front of her lovingly, and the lingering fragrant firewood rice with rice crust in her mind made her swallow several times.

In order to prevent himself from going hungry early, Kagawa turned his gaze to the fields under his feet.

The water in modern rice fields is not as turbid as it was in the 21st century. On the contrary, it is very clear and you can even see the rice stalks underwater.

All production escort ships have first-class control over harmful organisms and bacteria, so there are no leeches or snails to be seen, and of course, no grass carp either.

Looking at the naturally fallen rice ears floating on the water, Kagawa said with concern: "What a pity! If we use them to raise fish, they can make the grass carp fat and delicious in this season."

Thinking of the grass carps he caught in the fields of his hometown when he was a child and how they were cooked by his mother and turned into delicious fried grass carps, Kagawa's tears were about to flow from his mouth.

At this time, the person next to him asked: "Hehua fish? What is that?"

Kagawa answered without thinking:

"It's a small fish raised in rice fields. It has few bones and a lot of meat. It goes very well with rice when fried or stewed. Ah, you're making me hungry... Huh?"

She turned her head suddenly and saw that Manager Wu, who was originally in front of the team, had arrived at the platform where the four people from the Tongue Tip Society were on his platform. Manager Wu was staring at her with shining eyes.

This look was familiar to Kagawa. It was exactly the same look that the general manager of the fishery department of the production escort ship, who often came to their house for dinner, gave her after sucking the belly of steamed fish.

Are all the people in your agricultural department like this? Kagawa looked at his own employees for help.

Ouyang Yating and Aino shook their heads: We can't help you, President, please take care of yourself.

As the person caught in the middle, Liang Gong turned his back and pretended not to see Kagawa's eyes. There was no other way. His mother was also hoping to get some new solutions related to animal husbandry from Kagawa. Besides, the production of escort ships is a matter of common destiny. If he spoke up and stopped Director Wu, then when he reunited with his mother for dinner in the evening, he would have to taste the most common delicacy for children of the same age in ancient times - fried pork with bamboo shoots.

"Classmate, you are the rumored Kagawa-san, right?" Director Wu looked at her with shining eyes. His original elegant temperament was gone. Now he looked a bit like a mad scientist. "Can you tell me about the fish raised in the rice field you just mentioned? What kind of fish is it? What are the precautions? What does it usually eat? How long is the growth period..."

Faced with the machine-gun-like questions from Director Wu, Kagawa felt suffocated.

She really wanted to yell: Every time my parents just threw the fish fry in there and left them alone! How could I know how to raise them! I only know how to eat them!
