System: I open an inn in the desert

Harvesting machines buzzed through the planting fields, leaving clear traces.

Lin Yu set up a pergola with his hands and looked up.

The silage area in the distance has almost been harvested. Judging from the current speed, all the work should be completed today.

When we first planned Shanglin Garden, we originally planned to build a pure grassland pasture, which would be both beautiful and easy to manage.

But later in practice, I found that this idea had many constraints, and there were too many difficulties in its implementation that were not considered before. The first one to bear the brunt was Boss Lin's wallet problem.

{Barren sandy land} is the prerequisite for the smooth growth of pasture. The unit price is not expensive, but it is an invisible points assassin!

Anyone who encounters sand dunes or sand valleys will be charged N*10 times more points. Who can bear this? !

I still remember the last time that Boss Lin relied on his bulging pockets, and he also felt that this small sandy land was really cheap. The price of 100 points per acre was nothing more than drizzle for the bloated Boss Lin.

then……

"Hey~~"

Forget the past.

Boss Lin took the initiative to cut off the memories of the past and returned to the previous train of thought.

Because yellow sand moves with the wind, most of it forms undulating terrain such as sand dunes and sand valleys. There are few large areas of open, flat land like the Central Plains.

Lin Yu didn't want to (not that he didn't want to, he was really short of points and was short of money) to spend sky-high points to smooth out the terrain, so the farther back he went, the more random the grassland terrain became.

But not to mention, after the crops are planted and survive in this case, the viewing effect will be more natural and better.

The green hills stretch one after another. From a distance, they look like the finest Chinese landscape paintings.

Also due to terrain reasons, many areas are not suitable for the growth of many types of forage, and will be affected by problems such as water sources and light. Later, some old herdsmen introduced that they could grow some silage, highland barley and corn.

When the weather gets completely cold and the growth of plants slows down or stops growing, it can be used as high-quality feed to feed cattle and sheep. This will save a lot of forage costs and is very cost-effective.

Lin Yu thinks it makes sense. Although he has a systematic farm that can grow at double the speed, after all, it is not something that can be relied on all the time. If it can still be self-sufficient and even profitable after removing external factors, that would be the best thing.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Old Man Ge and a group of people coming from a short distance away, each holding a small stick in his hand. Lin Yu raised his voice and asked: "Uncle Ge, what are you doing here? Why did you copy the guy?" "

The last sentence was naturally a joke. As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yu also walked towards them.

"Xiaoyu, why do you have time to come here today?"

Lin Yu walked over with the backlight behind him. Old Man Ge squinted to see clearly. He smiled brightly and said, "Let's go to the cornfield to chase the birds away. This will save us the trouble when the machine goes in to harvest."

Corn silage is located at the edge of the pasture.

Because the order of planting was different, the planting time was also staggered by a few days. Fortunately, the seeds were optimized and the growth conditions seemed to be about the same. It was already the harvest season.

Lin Yu and Old Man Ge joined the large army and rushed to the cornfield.

These corns have grown much taller than him. From a visual inspection of at least two meters away, the leaves are still lush green and more than a meter long. The roots firmly grip the ground, and the stalks are as thick as sugar cane.

Lin Yu walked to the edge, held a tree with one hand and shook it vigorously. It felt heavy.

When I was a child, I went on a spring outing with my teacher. At that time, I only focused on catching crickets, eating snacks, and running and jumping. My impression of farmland was very sparse, but I still had a rough idea of ​​what mature corn should look like.

Randomly break off an ear of corn on the pole, pull off the whiskers on the top of the head, and tear open the layers of husks.

The corn kernels inside were fully developed, but the color was still whitish. At first glance, it was clear that they were not yet fully mature. He picked out a few kernels and stuffed them into his mouth, biting his teeth, and the sweet corn syrup water burst out in his mouth. .

It’s definitely still early to make grains, but it’s just the right time to make tender corn and eat it, no more and no less.

"Uncle Ge, help me keep some tender corn here. I want to eat boiled corn tonight. I don't want anything else, just this!"

Old Man Ge laughed and agreed readily: "No problem, I will pick the best ones for you later and send them to Lingfeng Tower. You can eat them directly in the evening. You are craving for fresh food. But don't mention it, I also picked it yesterday. I ate a few sticks and the taste was incredible.”

Although this silage is prepared as feed for cattle, horses and sheep in the pasture, no one stipulates that people cannot eat it. Anyway, Old Man Ge and Lin Yu have no idea. Tasty is the most important thing.

"Okay, thank you Uncle Ge, but what are we going to do now?"

Lin Yu looked at the short sticks they were holding and was eager to try them. He reached out to the people next to him and asked for one too.

"We each go in several times. There may be some birds or small animals making nests inside, and we check to catch those that need to be driven out, and release those that need to be released... We will reclaim the land without killing animals, and we will feel at ease."

Lin Yu nodded, that's the truth.

So I followed their example, put on my hat, covered my neck, and dove into the cornfield.

He had never been exposed to any heavy farm work since he was a child, and he came to do it this time out of curiosity. But after coming in, he understood why Old Man Ge told him over and over again to protect his head and face and be careful. "

He is tall, but shorter than a corn stalk. The leaves above him are just at the position of his neck and face. The nearly mature plant is tall and strong, and the hairs on the edges of the leaves also become sharp as people walk through it.

After a while, Lin Yu's exposed forearm, which was too hot because he disliked it, had scratches all over it. When the sweat flowed through, it hurt from the stings of scorpions, and his eyes were even scratched by leaves when he wasn't paying attention. : "Hiss~~"

But before Boss Lin could feel the true meaning of working people for a few more seconds, the sound of flapping wings sounded in the field ahead.

Looking up, I saw a group of small birds rushing out of the cornfield, flapping their wings and flying away.

He wanted to see clearly what kind of birds those were. He even forgot about the injuries on his arms, but his trousers suddenly stuck to his ankles as if they were blown by the wind, as if something was scurrying past him.

When I looked down, I saw an animal running very fast on all fours. Before I could see what kind it was, it disappeared behind the hills not far away and was out of sight.

Well, everything that flies in the sky and runs on the ground has actually made a home in his cornfield. If the environmental conditions here hadn't allowed it, he doubts that the ones that swim in the water would be spared...

This artificial feed base can be considered to have species diversity.

Lin Yu hunched over, tapping here and there with a stick, imitating others. As I walked forward and worked, I also scared away many small animals that had made a temporary home here, which was a bit of a gain.

But at the end of the ridge, when Old Man Ge saw his image, he refused to let him in again and even confiscated his stick.

Boss Lin could only change his identity and resume his identity as a supervisor, enjoying the scenery of birds fluttering in the field.

Without his second sword, the others could travel much faster.

In more than an hour, the inspection of this large silage corn field was completed. Old Man Ge notified the machine to come over for harvesting, and then took Lin Yu to the feed production place.
