Four-year-old Su Xiaoya was rescued from the border by her special forces father, Su Zhan, and brought to the resource-poor Beidahuang Farm.

Looking at his gaunt comrades and the barren land, Su Zhan sighed. “Sweetheart, we’ll have to grow our own food to survive.”

Su Xiaoya blinked her big eyes and nodded. “Don’t worry, Daddy. I’m great at farming!”

The next day, Su Zhan stared thoughtfully at what had grown in the field.

The bright green Peashooters went rat-a-tat-tat and shot birds right out of the sky.

The enormous Wall-nuts stopped a runaway tractor dead in its tracks.

Even more outrageous was the Cob Cannon, which blasted the top off a mountain at a firing range ten kilometers away!

Su Xiaoya came running over, clutching a Cherry Bomb. “Daddy, this red cherry looks really ripe. It’s going to explode!”

The entire military district went crazy: We sent you to help with farming, and you grew a mechanized division?!

Later, when the West imposed a technological blockade, Su Xiaoya quietly planted a row of sunflowers. “These can produce light that’s even more powerful than nuclear energy!”
