“Be careful, don’t wander around aimlessly.” Tang Zhinian patted his daughter’s head and instructed her. He wasn’t afraid that his daughter would get lost, but rather worried that she would get captivated by something new and refuse to leave.

“Mmm,” Tang Yuxin nodded fervently. She responded affirmatively to whatever Tang Zhinian said. She yearned to grow up quickly in her heart. After all, an adult’s heart resided within a child’s body.

She was tired of acting cute and childish, and it made her want to cry.

Later, after Tang Yuxin had finished exploring and the Tang brothers had finished eating, they gained new energy. Without hesitation, they quickly built the remaining three greenhouses.

Fearing the arrival of snow later in the year, they reinforced the greenhouses with wire ropes to increase their load-bearing capacity. Even if it snowed, it would not be a big deal. As long as they worked hard to clear the snow, the greenhouses would continue to stand firm. The brothers were diligent and not lazy, and would not allow idleness to ruin the newly constructed greenhouses.

By the time it was getting dark, the three greenhouses were finally completed, very sturdy. Both ends were covered thickly with soil, and everything was well packed. Tomorrow, they could start planting the seeds, and they wouldn’t need to worry about the rain, as they would be safe inside the greenhouses.

After several days of hard work, they managed to plant all the coriander seeds. In total, they built five new greenhouses. Coupled with the three existing ones, the Tang family now had eight greenhouses filled with coriander.

Upon seeing the new greenhouses in the Tang family compound, the villagers were skeptical. They questioned the profitability of the coriander and whether it could cover the cost of the greenhouse materials.

Not to mention, if there was a heavy month-long snowfall like in previous years, it would be a tedious task to continually clear the snow from the greenhouses.

The villagers still largely relied on mother nature for their livelihood, despite the advent of the 1980s.

Regardless of the villagers’ skepticism, concern, or silent ridicule, waiting to see the Tang brothers lose their investment, the coriander in the Tang family’s eight greenhouses germinated, and the seedlings grew healthily. The lush green growth added vibrancy to the bleak autumn season.

Despite this, winter was approaching.

In the north, people burn fireplaces in the winter. Regardless of how cold it was outside, having a fireplace at home ensured a warm winter. Especially when getting into bed, warming your hands by the fireplace provided exceptional comfort.

Tang Zhinian checked on the crops every day. The coriander had always had a high germination rate. With the stable weather, the coriander grew rapidly, and within a month, robust seedlings had sprouted. These seedlings were growing strong.

The brothers left the house before dawn and only returned late in the evening, solely dedicated to tending the seedlings. With the increased germination, they had to thin out the seedlings to prevent the coriander from growing too thin. If they were too sparse, the yield would be low.
