Siheyuan: I Raised Ten Thousand Wild Boars

"Well, there is no good solution at the moment. They suggest eradicating all the cabbages with diseases and insect pests, then turning the soil over and replanting them. Otherwise, the virus will spread to other vegetables!" Qi Wei said calmly, his eyes at the nose, his nose at the mouth, and his mouth at the heart.

These are his professional knowledge, so why would he need to ask others?

"I'll go find them!" Song Chengye said angrily.

The farm had to provide a large amount of vegetables to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences every month in exchange for the Academy's support for the farm. Now that they were taking their own things but not doing anything, Song Chengye couldn't accept it.

When we came to the vegetable field, Xiao Wang from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences was recording something with a pen and a notebook.

"Technician Wang, are you busy?" Song Chengye greeted him enthusiastically.

"Director Song, you're here!" Xiao Wang looked up and glanced at Song Chengye, then continued doing his own thing.

"Technician Wang, the cabbages are sick. How do we prevent it? You have to come up with a solution!" Song Chengye said humbly.

You can't tell at all that he just scolded Qi Wei.

"Director Song, there are currently no good means or methods to carry out targeted prevention and control. Our Academy of Agricultural Sciences has also been researching and exploring large-scale planting."

Technician Wang didn't say anything, but he thought to himself that if the previous director hadn't refused to allow us to do the research, we would have already completed it.

"Then there is no solution at all?"

"Well, the full name of this virus is Cruciferous Vegetable Virus Disease, which we also call Lonely Disease. It has a short incubation period and a wide range of disease. Once infected, the leaves of the cabbage shrink, feel hard and break easily.

According to historical records, once this disease breaks out, all kinds of vegetables will be infected, and the best way is to eradicate them completely.”

"By the way, due to the long drought, many vegetables have also developed problems such as aphids and thrips. We must pay attention to this. Once an outbreak occurs, I am afraid that new pests and diseases will arise."

Xiao Wang pushed his glasses, showing his expert demeanor.

After hearing what Xiao Wang said, Song Chengye felt a little dizzy. He didn't know if it was because he drank too much at noon or because of high blood sugar.

Why does this damn God always go against me?

A few days ago, because the water level in the river was too low and the water pump was not working well, he thought about blocking the water and building a dam. As a result, several large teams of people from downstream came to the farm in a large number and almost beat him up, making him sigh that it was really difficult to do something.

Now this kind of thing happens in the vegetable garden again. Do I still want to live?

After listening to Xiao Wang's words, Song Chengye still didn't give up and went to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences to find the dean. The dean said that Xiao Wang was the most experienced expert in vegetable planting at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and if he couldn't do it, then it was very likely that no one else could do it either.

After hearing what the dean said, Song Chengye was dumbfounded. Aren't you guys making fun of yourself all the time?

The food and money you earn on the farm every month are of no use at the critical moment. No wonder Li Guohua looks down on you.

But what should we do about this?

During this drought, he could still lead people to water the vegetables from dawn to dusk, but now the vegetables are infested with insects and sick, he really has no other way.

Report to Deputy Squad Leader Tang? No, if I report this, I will definitely be fired.

By the way, didn’t the experts from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences say to dig up the soil and replant it?

Well, the experts said it would work!

We immediately had the problematic vegetables dug up and the land turned over, preparing to replant them in a few days.

night

A dozen bonfires were lit by the river on the farm, and people who were rushing to get water and rescue people were lying or sitting on the surrounding grass.

"Oh, I don't know how Brother Guohua, Yunlong, Dahu and the others are doing!" Zhang Zhiyong said with a sigh as he lay aside.

Recently, there has been summer planting and water rush, which has made everyone in the production department very tired.

"What else can they do? Yunlong and Dahu are having so much fun working in the textile factory with the director!" Wang Guishan, who was lying next to him, continued.

"No way! I heard that people at the textile factory can only eat a full meal at noon!" Wu Shengli asked doubtfully.

He had heard that now only the farm could provide enough food, but that was before.

"Well, what do you know? A few days ago, I went to Uncle Yuan Fu's place. They sold a batch of chickens, and Brother Guohua divided all the chickens into chicken racks, chicken meat, and chicken legs. The chicken racks were used for stewing soup, the chicken meat was used for stir-frying, and the chicken legs were all used for braising.

The canteen of the textile factory cooked two large pots of chicken legs, which were fragrant, crispy and soft, and each one was this big! "Wu Guoquan exaggeratedly gestured the size with his hands, and his mouth was watering as he spoke.

When the others heard this, they were stunned. There was actually such a way to eat it, all chicken legs, what a grand scene that would be.

"Brother Yulin, do you have any potatoes? Give me one!" Zhang Zhiyong asked

He thought about gnawing on the chicken leg, swallowed his saliva, and felt even hungrier.

"Here!" Zhao Yunlin took out a boiled potato from his arms and threw it to him like a magic trick.

Zhang Zhiyong took the potato and put it directly into his mouth without caring whether the peel was on or not. He started crying while chewing.

"Woo woo, I miss Brother Guohua!"

It didn't matter that he started crying, the old farm workers started crying too, and they all said they missed the farm manager.

When the director was in office, working hours were strictly restricted because he said he was afraid of wasting national resources.

The meals were also top-notch. Not only could we have meat once a week, but during the busy farming season, we had meat almost every day. We also encouraged everyone to eat more vegetables and fruits to maintain a balanced nutrition.

Now Song Chengye is treating them like beasts of burden.

When the newcomers heard their conversation, they all beat their chests and stamped their feet, saying that they came too late and missed the good opportunity.

"Chief Yutian, how long do you think the farm can last if it continues like this?" asked team leader Zhou Peng.

When the captains around heard what he said, they all gathered around him.

"I don't know how long the farm can last, but a reduction in production this year is a foregone conclusion!" Zhao Yutian pounded his leg and said with a wry smile.

"Well, who says it isn't? The land to the east is almost dead."

"The plots of land in the south are the same."

"Only the land on both sides of the river and a few plots of land at the site are OK."

Everyone was talking about it, but no one went to report to Song Chengye. Because he would say, "You should take people there quickly to promote the spirit of hard work." But everyone was really too tired to do it.

"Fu Han, how is your ranch?" asked team leader Hong Yiyou.

"Don't mention it. A few days ago, because the new feed was substandard, more than a dozen cows started ruminating. We were busy until late at night! The situation with chickens and ducks is even more difficult. More than a hundred have died. Fortunately, we found them early and fed them medicine, otherwise more people would have died." Liu Fuhan said with a wry smile.

This is not the most important thing. The important thing is that the feed delivered every day is not enough for the chickens and ducks. Fortunately, Li Guohua left early, and the 10,000 chicks ordered this year were not delivered, otherwise they would be in a more difficult situation.

After hearing Liu Fuhan's words, everyone became even more silent. It felt like the farm was about to close.
