This middle-aged suggestion reminded Lu Lu of the contact information of the Beijing Zoo left by the two Shandong men he met last year who caught bear cubs.
He once thought about capturing wild animals and selling them to the zoo. However, after getting three lynx cubs, he sent a telegram to the other party and received no response, so Lu Lu gave up.
The key is that the three lynx cubs were kept and raised, and they have developed feelings for each other. Now they are all grown up and can take care of the home.
In the end, that road was abandoned.
Catching live ones is indeed much more difficult than hunting, and in many cases it is simply a thankless effort, and the money is not as easy as targeted hunting.
The key is that once a living creature is caught, it cannot be taken away immediately. It has to be waited on. This is an extremely troublesome thing.
Therefore, when Lu Lu took the order handed over by the middle-aged man, he glanced at it and said directly: "It's unrealistic and inconvenient to make a big one. If I encounter a cub or something a bit strange, I will pay attention to it.
I’ll contact you when I get it.”
The smaller ones are easier to handle, and I don’t have the heart to slaughter them. It would be a better choice to send them to the zoo for breeding.
"Okay...my name is Huang Zixue, please remember to contact me when the time comes!"
Huang Zixue nodded, asked the two young men to get in the car, and drove away quickly.
Lu Lu opened the envelope, took out the money inside and counted it. It was five hundred.
This was an unexpected gain. Lu Lu never thought he would receive money.
"It's exactly five hundred. The five of us will share one hundred each!" Lu Lu immediately counted ten and handed them to Zhao Yongke.
At this time, there was nothing much he could do when he returned to the breeding farm. To avoid running back and forth, Lu Lu said hello to Zhao Yongke and Zhao Tuanqing and returned to his own meadow.
The four cranes have grown on the meadow for such a long time, and have long since shed their down, replaced by white feathers, black tails, black necks, and naked, featherless tops with a vermilion red top.
However, Lu Lu still hasn't figured out the male and female of these four red-crowned cranes.
Judging from the appearance, they are about the same size and shape, so it is difficult to tell them apart.
They forage on the meadows, along the rivers and puddles, and hang out on the meadows every day.
There were plenty of small fish and insects in such a large area, and when Lu Lu was fishing for fish to feed the lynx, he would also feed a few of them. They were not afraid of people at all and wandered leisurely on the meadow every day.
, occasionally fly up, dance in the sky, and chirp a few times. You can often see them burying their heads under their wings, or golden roosters standing independently or sleeping directly on the ground.
The elegant and refined feeling is indeed a beautiful scenery on this meadow.
It took another two days to build the forest frog wintering pond.
After two days of rest, each family has started to harvest their own rice.
Next comes the harvest of corn.
This took more than twenty days.
Meng Zhaohua and Zhang Shaofeng had been taught how to control the machine by Lu Lu a long time ago, and now that an expert like Lei Meng has joined in, things are going smoothly.
Within a few days, two thousand acres of corn were piled up in front of the farm's warehouse.
After all the corns were harvested, several families happily looked at the golden piles of corns.
"Fourth, this year's corn is pretty good. If it is threshed and turned over and sold to the state, we can make a net profit of at least 20,000 yuan!" Raymond weighed the output and gave this estimate.
Having been a farm director, Raymond is very accurate in this aspect.
"Thank you for your good leadership!" Lu Lu said with a smile.
Indeed, in terms of management, Raymond worked hard and did not slack off in drainage, fertilization, weeding, etc.
The yield is also in sharp contrast to those grown in Xiangshui Creek Forest Farm.
"Nonsense, even if I don't come, you can still do things very well!" Raymond glared at him: "Your boy's courage and vision are really beyond the comparison of ordinary people."
Lu Lu smiled and said, "It's just luck. If you hit the right spot, if you guys work together, God will take care of it."
He also breathed a long sigh of relief. The most troublesome thing about planting in the wilderness is natural disasters. There may be an early frost, a snow in early spring, or a hail in summer, which may greatly reduce the grain output.
This is more up to God than farming in other places.
This year, the two heavy rains were a bit scary, but other times were normal, making a good harvest at the end of the year inevitable.
Nie Jingguo was very happy to see such a scene. He walked around the fields and went to the breeding farm run by Lu Lu and others, and immediately reported the matter.
As a result, within two days, a reporter came to visit, walked around the fields and several farms, took a lot of photos, and interviewed almost everyone involved in the family farm and those who worked there.
Within two days, the situation on the farm and breeding grounds was immediately reported in the newspaper.
When Wang Demin got the newspaper, he happily found Lu Lu's house that night: "Xiao Lu, you are now famous. Look, the family farm is welcoming a bumper harvest. The first primrose in HLJ is this.
There is a large-scale report on the family farm you set up, the harvest of corn in the fields, and the sound management of the farm. It’s all good news!”
Lu Lu invited Wang Demin to sit on the Kang to drink tea, took the newspaper, and read it under the kerosene lamp.
There is nothing exaggerated, it is very realistic.
In short, family farms have great potential.
Of course, Lu Lu's past and Ye Hu's identity were also revealed.
What Lu Lu is most concerned about is actually another issue: the sales of wild geese!
Since it is published in HLJ's most famous newspaper, one can imagine its power.
In these days, only a few people in the city have television, and newspapers are the main medium for transmitting information.
Lu Lu welcomed this kind of interview, especially when Lu Lu said at the end that he was worried about the sales of wild geese, and it was well reported, he knew that his sales of wild geese after winter would not be a big problem.
Big.
At this time, Tang Liyun was also reading this newspaper at Tang Liyun's house in Weihe Town.
He also runs a family farm and has always been concerned about such issues.
Therefore, when I saw Lu Lu's deeds reported in the newspaper and recognized the person in the photo as the person who helped them deal with the wild boar disaster, I was extremely surprised.
He invested a lot this year, but he didn't earn much. If Lu Lu and others hadn't helped eliminate the wild boar disaster, who knows what would have happened to the wheat.
He didn't expect that these good hunters would achieve such great things.
More importantly, his own son went to the mountain and told about his life and death experiences. When he learned that his son went to the mountain and was saved by Lu Lu and others, he was filled with gratitude. He immediately took the newspaper and rushed to the mountain.
Someone shouted loudly in the room: "Son, come and take a look, my benefactor is in the newspaper!"
His son ran over to take a look and recognized Lu Lu and others, and his expression became excited: "Look, where are they from?"
"Xiushan Tun, Meixi District, Yichun...this benefactor is still a tiger hunter, no wonder he is so powerful." Tang Liyun praised.
"Dad, can we go find them?"
"Then I definitely have to go. Firstly, I would like to thank you for helping our farm, and secondly, I would like to thank you for saving your life. Maybe we can go there and learn something from them... hurry up and get busy with things at home.
, we will leave in two days."
"good!"
The father and son made a decision immediately.
Lu Lu is currently busy arranging manpower to thresh, dry, dust and return the piles of corns to the warehouse.
Machine harvesting is simple, but the subsequent tasks are no small matter.
Fortunately, the forest farm's field warehouse has a large drying area and a warehouse dedicated to storing grain, so things can be carried out in an orderly manner.
Nie Jingguo's office was also very lively at this time. People who saw Lu Lu's income and accumulated some money thought they were capable enough, especially those employees of the forest farm who had been in charge of field planting.
Ideas for building a family farm.
If you don’t have enough financial and material resources, you won’t be able to plant hundreds or even thousands of acres, but there is still no problem in planting one or two hundred acres.
As a result, in just a few days, the remaining two thousand acres of land in the forest farm were quickly contracted by more than a dozen families.
The same is true in other places. Many people who were inspired by the policy to encourage contracting for family farms have now made up their minds after seeing the newspaper reports and began to approach the competent authorities and sign contracting contracts.
For a time, family farms were springing up everywhere.
The main contract is land for growing food. As for the barren mountains and wasteland, no one is interested in it. What can they do after contracting it? Without experience and skills, it seems that it is not suitable for anything.
Xiangshui Creek Forest Farm only has such a small area of cultivated land, and it seems like there is not much movement. Lu Lu is too lazy to pay attention to these things, and is only busy with what he should be busy with.
Seeing that the corn field in the forest farm had been harvested, he walked around the field and saw a lot of corn scattered in the field, and there were many that had not been removed. So he asked Raymond to lead some people to continue processing the corn threshing and entering the warehouse.
He himself called Zhang Shaofeng and others, as well as Lin Yujuan, Zhao Meiling, Pu Guiying and others, to prepare for the first wild goose grazing this year.
Lu Lu had come up with this idea when the rice harvest in Xiushantun was completed.
A lot of grain scattered in the ground, as well as extremely fat insects, are the best food for geese.
Unfortunately, Xiushan Tun was too far away from the Dayan Breeding Farm, and there were many vegetables, radishes and other crops in the surrounding fields, so Lu Lu had to give up.
But there is nothing to worry about in the several thousand acres of land in the forest farm. Moreover, there is more grain scattered in it than in the village, and the distance is not too far. This kind of fattening up the geese can save a lot.
Naturally, Lu Lu would not let go of the food method.
After the manpower was organized, the fence gate of the wild goose farm was completely opened for the first time.
Zhou Cuifen and Zhao Meiling took the lead, knocking on the pots to guide the geese along the way.
These geese have long been accustomed to their feeding, and are very familiar with the sound of feeding.
The moment the gate of the fence was opened, I heard the sound of a basin being knocked, and wild geese were flapping their bald wings, rushing out of the fence like a tide. In an instant, there was a loud rattling, and it was extremely noisy.
