608 The locust plague strikes again

The functions of the Community Care Fund were reported by journalists and instantly aroused international repercussions.

In a sense, a slightly vindictive fund is a bit out of the ordinary, but it's very satisfying. It can be said that Comrade Liu has done a lot of things that others want to do but dare not do.

The only fly in the ointment is that the scope is too small. Now the countries that cooperate with his fund are the only countries in which he is involved in business. And with the exception of Kenya and Tanzania, the rest of the countries have only simple disability benefits.

For many law enforcers, they are not afraid of the enemy's cunning, but only the enemy's bottomlessness. In the hearts of many people, this is a job, and there is no noble sentiment to eliminate all the bad elements in the world. But because of this job, he has to put his family in danger.

Therefore, some law enforcers will be timid and inactive when they work. Because they dare not do it, and if they do, they will retaliate. There are really not too many criminals in this world who are more dangerous than poaching.

This matter has caused heated discussions around the world, and no one has noticed that there is a similar fund in Huaxia. That is, Zhou Xianhao's proposal at the beginning, which is similar to this one in Kenya, but not so radical.

In fact, it is also because Huaxia is too big, there are not too many kinds of news every day, and it is often the entertainment industry that dominates the headlines. For many people, pay more attention to the gossip of celebrities. For some practitioners, even if there is no gossip about themselves, it is necessary to create conditions.

It's just that the core of the discussion, Comrade Liu is a little worried now. Because he underestimated the locust plague this time, and thought that he had already killed a small team, and he would have nothing to do here. In fact, this is not the case at all, the scale of this locust plague is really too large.

The overall number of these locust plagues is staggering, and they have spread to countries in East Africa, West Asia and South Asia.

The largest group is 60 km long and 40 km wide. Compared with this group, the ones he killed here are all at the follower level, which is not enough to see.

What worries him a little is that a large swarm of locusts has begun to turn again, and it is his place to see their flight paths. This group has come all the way, and many places that did not suffer from locust plagues last time have also been plagued.

"Why are these big grasshoppers just fucking up? Is this the small one being cleaned up, and the big one coming over for revenge or what? When is it a head? Lao Liu put down his notebook and complained.

"Then it can't be prevented this time? It's bigger than the last time, and these seedlings that grew out of the land we just planted have to be gnawed by them. Liu Shengli said.

"It's still going to be rectified, but after the experience of the last time, we can be more prepared this time. Lao Liu rubbed his face.

"That's true. According to news reports, the locust population could double again in the next month if not effectively controlled. Chen Cheng frowned and said.

"Now many countries have given up in the face of such locust plagues, or can only have simple passive defense. They are too large, and there are small swarms of locusts that come together to form large swarms. ”

"So we're going to have to take the initiative this time. Liu Wenrui said with a smile.

"I'll have to get in touch with Harvey later to make it easier for us. Since we have to do this thing, we have to do it well. It is not known how much of a role it can play, and at the very least, it can weaken the power of some locust swarms. ”

"What are you going to do?" asked Wang Shasha, who was listening on the side, curiously.

"At present, there is no problem with the coffee trees and tea trees on our farm. There is enough shade cloth to protect it, and the crops in the field can only be left to fate. Liu Wenrui said with a smile.

"Last time, we used the net to intercept the effect seems to be very good, this time we don't need to use labor, use a car. Tie steel pipes to the carriage, and use several layers of mesh in the middle, which can also increase toughness. ”

"But this consumption is also very large, not only in terms of materials, but also in terms of personnel. We don't have enough cars, so where are we going to face these locusts now?"

"So I thought we could talk to Harvey about a joint operation. If you worry about spending money and let these locusts fly everywhere without official intervention, I am afraid that the losses will be even greater in the future. ”

"In the face of such a locust plague, even if our strength is strong, what is the use? And it's still stronger than the wave, I'm afraid the speed of our extermination can't compare to the speed of their reproduction, right?"

"The investment will be very large, and we haven't auctioned the coffee beans yet, so it's a little tight. Chen Cheng frowned and said.

"Now they're spraying pesticides on just a few small planes, and although they have some effect, it's not big. In fact, sometimes when I think about it, I feel that there is no way to face such a locust plague. ”

Lao Liu smiled bitterly and nodded, now he also feels this way.

The last locust extermination battle was a success, and it gave him a strong confidence. But now that we understand the actual situation, the confidence we have built up has also collapsed.

Let's put it this way, if we want to really effectively curb the development momentum of this locust plague, we can only invest in all these affected countries, and they have to double their investment.

Because now they are also doing the work of killing locusts, but with little success. This is limited by national strength and resources, and I really want to do this well, but I don't have so much money and resources.

We can't just look at the current locust plague and the next food disaster. It is already an established fact that the production will be reduced or the harvest will be lost, but it depends on how serious it is. What should I do if I don't have food or drink when the time comes? I'm afraid that waiting for international aid will be a drop in the bucket.

"Kill as much as you can, and tell the second brother too. For the time being, tourists will not be accepted, and all those tourist vehicles will be sent to the battlefield. Liu Wenrui said.

"Okay, I'll buy some more pesticides. We don't have planes flying in the sky, let's see if we can borrow some fire trucks from Harvey and spray them with high-pressure water cannons. Even if there is no insecticide, the high-pressure water gun can kill some. Chen Cheng said.

"Now you have to use all the tricks, in the face of absolute numbers, that's all you can do, right? If you can't succeed, leave it to God." ”

"Haha, isn't that what it is. Otherwise, these locusts have many natural predators, whether they are frogs or birds, they can deal with them. Liu Wenrui said with a smile.

"But that's a lot of them, and last time the birds came to fight. It's a small swarm of locusts, and how many birds do we need for this big flock now?"

"I can't count on it, we have to prepare now and come into contact with this group of locusts in advance. They fly fast, but not as fast as our cars. ”

"The whole front is stretched, and these vehicles take turns fighting, and some can be eliminated. Then we came back and froze the locusts as food for our chickens. ”

"After all, we have to make up for it, otherwise who can afford to spend money vigorously. After this wave of operations, I'm afraid that more than 100,000 dollars will be spent again, right?"

"Let's be conservative, maybe it's just a foundation. It also depends on how many people can intervene in the official, and if we intervene, we will have to be responsible for the supply of almost everything, and the amount of money spent is not counted. ”

After the discussion, Lao Liu also directly picked up the phone and called Harvey.

"Simon, if you do that, you're going to need to spend a lot of money. After hearing this, Harvey said with a wry smile.

"Harvey, it's not a matter of spending money now, but if we don't invest again, the loss will only be greater. Liu Wenrui said.

"Your officials have sent people, equipment, and fuel, and I can afford some of the food supplies. These cars run back and forth every day, and the consumption of fuel is too great, and I personally can't really buy that much. ”

"At least three or four tankers have to be replenished at any given time, and I can't find them, so I have to find a way to get them from you. And all the supplies that can kill locusts, if you have them, don't keep them and take them out. ”

"Let's block a few rounds, and we can finally kill some. I was very successful here last time, and now even if there are more locusts, let's talk about a protracted war with them. ”

"Simon, I'll help you communicate about this. Harvey said in a firm tone.

"Actually, I think we can't do this alone. Liu Wenrui continued.

"Last time, Sunshine Company was watching the excitement, and in the face of such a major right and wrong, we can't make it easy for them. Do you have to communicate with the leaders at the top who have a good relationship with them?"

"Don't worry, no one will be easy in the face of such a locust plague. Harvey said with a smile.

"I can send you fifty people, ten cars, and two tanker trucks from the police force. I'll communicate with the military again, and the number of tankers can meet your requirements. The rest of the vehicles and supplies will have to be discussed before they can be determined. ”

"Harvey, don't talk about it for too long. Otherwise, by the time you're done discussing it, these locusts won't be able to fly far. What we can do now is for people to stop and take turns. ”

"Don't worry, I'm sure I'll try to do this. Harvey said with a wry smile.

He also knows what Liu Wenrui is worried about, bureaucracy exists in many countries. Not to mention that the scale of Liu Wenrui and Zhang Luo's matter this time is still so large, even if he can give some supplies, the rest of the costs will be a lot.

If these departments are very rich, then don't say anything, and it's over. The key is that the big guys' lives are tight, and everyone has to tighten their belts to get by.

Lao Liu also knows the difficulties that Harvey is facing, but now is not the time to worry so much. In the face of such a disaster, if you don't increase investment, you really don't dare to think about the consequences.
