Lu Jueyu nodded at her husband and said, "Exactly. Since the Chen family and the team leader also gather food in the mountains, the plants won't regrow fast enough to meet demand. So, I want to plant those fields and use the lake water to boost their growing speed."
After thinking for a moment, Li Chenmo said, "It's possible to plant those fields, but we can't plant rice. At most, we can grow coarse grains, wheat, potatoes, and mountain vegetables like radishes or carrots."
When Lu Jueyu heard this, she frowned with disappointment.
Seeing her reaction, Li Chenmo held his wife's hand and gently explained, "If we plant rice and villagers see it, the news will reach the brigade. If the brigade finds out that the mountain has lots of grains, they will claim the mountain, and we will lose access."
