Finally, it was the day when Alex rested. Anyway, Sasha felt that Liu Heming was much happier than Alex.After getting up early, this little guy followed Liu Heming, running around.Then, behind Alex, followed by a group of large and small animals.

The father and daughter have heavy tasks today, so they are not playing casually.Now the weather is getting cooler, and there are no flowers in the pasture that can be honeyed by those bees.So they had to move all the bellows panels of these beehives into the greenhouse.

The weather is getting colder every day now, and there is a thin layer of frost in the morning.

The beehive boards that Liu Heming was holding were a stack.Then a lot of bees were flying around him. From a distance, this was a large moving bee swarm.Not to mention people with trypophobia, even normal people are a little scared when they look at it, and even Liu Heming himself feels a little uncomfortable.

Who made his current animal affinity upgrade, and these bees also regarded him as a little friend.When flying, it would land on him and rest his feet, making him covered all over his body, even crawling on his face was still itchy.

It's not that you can't move them without worry, just use bioenergy.But for him, the current biological energy is extremely important, so how can he be willing to use a little.

He moved all morning, and only moved less than one-third of the amount.The bees were multiplying so fast that he didn't even know what his pasture would look like in two years.

Alex plucked a piece of honey from the bellows plate, and slowly tasted it with his eyes closed.It's enough for the bear children, but they can only follow from a distance.These big bees, they don't dare to come here to provoke them now.

It was still the little guy who was kind to them, ran up to them, and gave each little animal some rewards.He didn't dare to give too much, because there were too many small animals following him, and he was very jealous of these honey cakes.

On the way back, Liu Heming took the little guy for a walk around the cows and sheep.Relatively speaking, the heaviest work in a pasture is the disposal of these cattle and sheep manure.

Cow manure is easier to deal with, it is a big lump, easy to pick up.But those sheep dung balls are not so easy.He saw that the workers were picking up here very carefully, and it was very laborious.

In the past, he also knew that these feces would become the main problem in the operation of the ranch. For this reason, he built a fertilizer plant in advance to find a home for these distinctions.Now he felt that he had to find out if there was a machine for automatically collecting sheep manure, otherwise these workers would have to waste their time on it early in the morning.

After returning home and having breakfast, Liu Heming took his daughter and children to the fertilizer factory.Seeing John checking the machine very seriously, he felt a little embarrassed.

After throwing this to John, he seemed to never come here again.In the past, there were excuses, there were no cattle and sheep, and there was little manure, but now it is no longer the case, there are herds of cattle and sheep, and two trucks of manure can be pulled here every day.

"Wow, Uncle John, why are there so many big bubbles here?" Alex asked curiously, looking inside through the observation window outside the fermentation tank.

"There's swamp gas here. I heard them say that Alex is the best student in Orange's class. Tell uncle, is that true?" John asked, squatting beside the little guy.

"Well, Aunt Patsy said that Alex is a good boy who is willing to help others. Now I have five little red flowers." The little guy stretched out his little hand and said seriously.

"Alex is amazing. Uncle John has never gotten so many little red flowers." John said in a compliment.

"Well, Uncle John, I'll give you one next time. Aunt Patsy made me a day student, so I can get an extra little red flower." Alex said without hesitation.

"Haha, Alex, tell Uncle John why you are so cute." John said with a big laugh.

"John, is there a machine that specializes in cleaning sheep manure? Now the workers on the ranch are working very hard when dealing with sheep manure." Liu Heming stopped the two of them from talking.

The daughter is not only her own pistachio, but also everyone's pistachio.He can talk to anyone, and every time he brings the little guy out, he chats with everyone by himself.If you let them chat any more, today will be wasted.

"This is very simple, it should be possible to use some centrifugal vacuum cleaners." John said with a smile.

"But now you have more important things to consider. With more and more manure in the pasture, now our fertilizer factory has a lot of biogas reserves. Whether you use it to generate electricity or compress it into trucks The fuel needs to be considered.”

"Is it okay now? Is this little feces enough?" Liu Heming asked curiously.

John nodded, "There are very few people living in the entire town now, and the main places where biogas is used are your ranch and that motel."

"It may be that the feces decomposed by these earthworms have higher organic matter content. The fermented biogas is very good in terms of quality and methane content. I think you can consider the next step. After all, as these cattle and sheep grow Big, and there will be more and more poop."

"Not bad, not bad. A long time ago, I was very envious of the clean energy plan of those cattle farms. Now we finally have the time to realize it." Liu Heming said happily.

Regardless of the need for a sum of money to build power stations and biogas conversion plants, the money will not be spent in vain.Whether it is electricity or energy, I can be self-sufficient here.This will save you a lot of money every year.

And here is a little different from China. If you have more electricity here, you can still sell it, so that you can bring yourself an extra profit.Now the construction site in the town consumes a lot of electricity every day. With the supplement from our own side, we can save a lot of construction costs.

In fact, when it was built last time, the land near the fertilizer plant had already been planned.A corresponding location has also been reserved, and the shortest thing is the equipment.This question is very simple, just go to the energy company that helped with the planning last time. They all have a full set of equipment, and you can get a part of the discount if you buy from them.

But even if the project here was done by them before, after the contact, they have to send someone over to take a look at it before they can sign the contract.

After all, while this small power plant can provide Liu Heming with convenience, it is also very dangerous.

"Dexter, I think we should make good use of the fertilizer we produce? Whether it's scattered on the ground or sold out, it's better than storing it in the warehouse." John continued after Liu Heming contacted .

"Wait a moment, let me think about it." Liu Heming said solemnly.

Where is it thinking, but looking for the system to ask.

The land in the pasture was improved by those big earthworms eating the soil, so the current yield is so good.But how long the fertility can be maintained, he doesn't know, he can only know it through the system.

The answer is not very good. The soil amended by these earthworms works best in the first year, followed by the second year, and the third year will become ordinary soil.Because the nutrients inside will be absorbed by these crops after two years of planting.

"John, how about temporarily serving as the director of our fertilizer factory?" Liu Heming asked John after asking clearly.

"What? I can only repair equipment." John said with some surprise.

"The fertilizers produced by our fertilizer factory do not need to be exported, but are all used for the use of the land in my ranch. So you don't have to think about future sales, probably within a few years." Liu Heming said .

"You can recruit some workers yourself and give them some training first. Maybe in a few months, the fertilizer plant will be operating at full capacity."

"Dexter, can't you find someone else? How can I manage a factory." John said with a wry smile.

As far as he is concerned, it is no problem to go around the fertilizer factory every day and check all the equipment here.But if you let him manage the fertilizer factory, he will feel a lot of pressure.I am just a car repairer, and I am a blacksmith at a higher level.

"Haha, John, don't worry, it won't take up a lot of your time, and it can save me a lot of money." Liu Heming smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"If I go to the outside world to find a headhunting company to hire, they will all ask me for a salary. An honest person like you is easy to bully, just give me some, and you can work for me."

Liu Heming blinked after finishing speaking.

John shook his head helplessly. He knew that Liu Heming was joking, but he was actually trying to make himself more money.But he really felt very stressed, especially when he had to manage other people.

"Your car repair shop will be relocated next year at the latest. If you want to continue to do car repair work at that time, I can reserve a place for you." Liu Heming continued.

"Actually, I think it's better to come to my side and help me manage the fertilizer factory. I don't want all of you in our town to be idle and only earn rent. You should all help me to work."

"Okay, let me think about it. It's just that if I don't drive the repair shop, these passing drivers may not be so convenient." John nodded.

"You are not the only one who can repair cars in this world. If you decide, you will send out a transfer advertisement. I will build a truck repair shop next to the motel." Liu Heming rolled his eyes.

John smiled embarrassedly, Liu Heming's kindness to everyone is really nothing to say.
