You Said We Were Going Farming, So Why Did You Feed the World’s Granary?

In the future, the first signs of a global food crisis emerge, while seed technology is monopolized by a handful of foreign giants. “A single seed is worth its weight in gold.”

Lu Xuan can intuitively sense the deepest “desires for life” within plants. He knows what kind of light a rice plant “craves” and which plants a fruit tree “wants” as neighbors. He can instinctively choose the best ways to graft, pollinate, and breed plants, as if he can speak directly with their genes.

While everyone else is growing hybrid rice, he intuitively plants several native rice varieties that are on the verge of being phased out together. The new variety he develops yields three times as much per acre, tastes incredible, and can even grow in saline-alkali soil! A team of agricultural experts rushes over in the middle of the night and is stunned on the spot!

Foreign seed industry giants mock his techniques as “pseudoscience” and impose a technological blockade on him. In response, he grows watermelons in the desert, tropical fruit in the bitter cold, and “cleansing grass” that can remove heavy metals from soil. One miracle after another, he shatters the foreign technological monopoly for good!
