Chapter 0237 pest eradication, rice matures

Most animals, like humans, also yearn for light. Therefore, in the dark night, many insects will fly towards the shining place regardless of the consequences.

This is where moths fly to the flame. Now Xu Xiaoyu’s insect-killing method also uses this principle.

He once heard his grandmother say that in the past society, due to the shortage of pesticides and other supplies, when farmers encountered insect infestations, they would light piles of firewood in the fields to attract swarms of pests. By the way.

, the reason why they did not use electric lights was that many rural areas did not have electricity at that time, and Fuyun Village was one of them.

"Xu, your move is really too high! It's higher than the cages and traps used to kill rats!!"

Countless pests flew around the light bulb, and kept hitting the hot light bulb. Then, they became dizzy, and ended up diving into the basin under the light bulb, getting their wings wet with water.

, and can no longer fly.

The nine of them, George and the others, looked at these possessed pests rushing to die like crazy. They were stunned for a while, and they all gave Xu Xiaoyu a thumbs up.

"Tall ball, our ancestors started using this trick thousands of years ago." Xu Xiaoyu curled his lips.

"Oh..." George and the others sweated. The flattery was slapped on the horse's hooves again.

Everyone was lighting up the miner's lamp and walking along the field path to check out the situation everywhere.

The pest infestation is really serious. Every light bulb is surrounded by three layers of insects inside and outside.

Early the next morning, we first picked up the cages in the river, separated the eels and loaches, released those that should be released, and sent those that should be sent to Xiang Xiang Tian Tian.

Immediately, everyone came to clean up the battlefield last night and count the results.

"Oh my God, there are so many!"

When I came to the first light bulb, I saw that the large pot was so crowded that half of the pot was filled with dead insects. There were more than ten types of dead insects, among which moths were the most numerous, accounting for ten percent.

**.

George and the others gained some insight last night. They saw that this pest control method was very effective, but they still didn't expect that the effect was so ridiculously good... It was really unimaginable.

Next, everyone divided into several groups to collect the dead insects everywhere.

Each pot has a lot of harvest. The smallest pot is only half a pot. The largest pot is actually full.

Collect all the insects together and pile them up like a hill. It's quite scary.

"Come on, come on, come on, let's eat..."

Grandma looked at the pile of bugs and was very happy. She scooped up half of the bugs with a ladle, called the chickens, ducks and geese in the shack, and sprinkled them over.

Insects are a top-quality delicacy for poultry and are deeply loved by them. Moreover, the protein content in the worms is extremely high, so the poultry eats them not only to grow quickly, but also to have excellent meat quality.

"Crack, rattle, rattle..."

When the chickens, ducks and geese saw the insects, they screamed excitedly, flapped their little wings, and fought to eat them.

"If you don't rob or rob, everyone will have something to eat, and everyone will be satisfied."

Grandma was smiling, and scoop after scoop of insects was splashed out, and the little poultry ate happily.

There were more than 2,000 chickens, ducks and geese, which was not a small number. However, the portions of these insects were larger. They were so full that they only finished less than half of them. Xu Xiaoyu set aside some and stored the rest.

Put it in the refrigerator and leave it for the poultry to eat later.

In the next two days, pest control activities continued.

As a result, the number of pests in the paddy fields suddenly dropped sharply, but pests broke out in the vegetable fields again, and there were not only flying insects, but also caterpillars and other pests that specialized in damaging vegetables.

Xu Xiaoyu led George and the others to move the device to the vegetable field, but grandma stopped him. The old man smiled and said: "Xiaoyu, there is no need to go to such trouble, just put all these chickens, ducks and geese in the vegetable field."

It’s fine if you don’t want to.”

"Yeah, why did I forget." Xu Xiaoyu patted his forehead, released more than two thousand small poultry from the shed, and drove them into the vegetable field with the cooperation of Wangcai Laifu.

As soon as the little poultry enter the vegetable field, they feel like birds returning to the mountains and forests, forgetting about their carefree nature.

Soon, they were annihilated by the vegetables, and the only sounds heard in the vegetable field were the sound of chopping and the excited "clack-clack-clack" sounds.

However, there were more than 100 acres of vegetable fields and only more than 2,000 small poultry. He would definitely not be able to catch these insects. So, Xu Xiaoyu bought another 10,000 chickens in one go.

When they grow up, the restaurant can add another signature dish.

"Xu, let's continue planting grass."

In front of the vegetable patch, George suggested to Xu Xiaoyu.

The grass seeds soaked in the space were sown about ten days ago, covering an area of ​​more than 100 acres. The growth rate of these grasses is naturally very fast, and now it has grown to a length of more than a dozen, and is lush and green.

It is green and tender, and the cattle and sheep like to eat it very much.

The cattle and sheep that Barnes left behind were originally very thin, but after eating this grass, they obviously started to gain weight. Obviously, these grasses are very nutritious.

As for the entire Tianshan Ranch, there are still 120,000 acres of vacant land. George and the others can’t wait to give them a new look, put them all in green make-up, and make the mountains and fields full of cattle and sheep... Try to think about that by then

The spectacular sight of the ranch made them feel longing and excited.

"Okay, let's plant. Let's plant them all."

Xu Xiaoyu nodded in agreement, took out a large number of seeds soaked in space water, and gave them to them to plant.

George and the others were very diligent, and with the help of various machines, they managed to secure 10,000 to 20,000 acres of mountainous land in ten days.

At this time, they had to stop, because the rice in the paddy field had matured. The ears of rice were yellow and orange, and the grains of rice were so full that each of the seedlings bent their slender waists. More than a hundred

As far as the eye can see, the acres of paddy fields are bright and yellow, which is the color that symbolizes harvest, making it pleasant and joyful.

"This millet is really good. The cooked rice will taste very fragrant."

Looking at the golden color, everyone was smiling. Americans almost never eat white rice, but after George and the others came to the ranch, they fell in love with the fragrant and glutinous rice. Now their eating habits have almost completely changed -

—Abandoned Western food and fell in love with Chinese food.

"I'm more looking forward to the taste of the brewed wine. Tsk tsk, I think it will be right." Dad said with a smile.

"I'm looking forward to it too." Xu Xiaoyu took over the conversation. He had already finished drinking the farm-roasted knives he brought from China, and he missed the mellow, thick and mouth-burning taste.

"When the rice is harvested and ground into rice, I will brew it for you to drink... With so much rice, you can brew as much rice as you want and drink as much as you want." Grandma said with a smile. Most of the older generation in Fuyun Village
