Li Hongjun swung the shovel, digging up clods of the dark soil, then flicked his wrist to flip the soil over and toss it back to its original place, before lightly sweeping the shovel to smooth out any raised areas.

"I've heard that Taoshu Village mainly grows wheat. Do you still know how to farm it?" Shen Yunfang asked, eyes shining as she stared at Li Hongjun.
