In the newly developed land in the hilly area, the relatively flat areas that can be used for mechanical work are planned to be reclaimed into farmland, which is intended to be used to grow oil crops and wheat and corn. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info These farmlands are not all contiguous, they are divided into five or six plots, and the total area accounts for about 20% of the area.

Some of the hills are planted with some tropical fruits and other cash crops. He even planted a lot of Brazilian chestnuts - seedlings that he had collected from the seeds of Brazilian chestnuts in the jungle and planted them. and some special bamboo.

On this land, he built a real villa, as well as some workers' houses. The living area has a football field, basketball court, badminton court, tennis court, volleyball court, swimming pool, a gym and a 21-hole golf course. There is even an airport with a runway that is more than 1,500 meters long.

But there are still one or two hundred square kilometers of land left empty in this hill. He felt that everything that should be planted in the space had already been taken out.

A wide range of fruits, grain crops, vegetables and cash crops are planted. In the future, this bare hill will soon be covered with greenery, tea plantations, fruit groves, coffee plantations, cocoa orchards, and the only Brazilian chestnut forest in the world.

Horses, cows, deer, musk deer, fish, shrimp and shellfish, he took out a small amount from the space and stocked them. There are also some special breeding species, such as the white jade snail that can grow to weigh one and a half pounds, which can be used as a special breeding.

For example, he built a prefabricated house to grow mushrooms.

He couldn't think of anything else worth putting to good use.

Speaking of which, there are not a lot of mineral resources in space. But it's not particularly enriched, and he really doesn't have much of a mind to mine. For example, in the space, he knows that there is a primary gold mine with a high gold content.

But that's not his thing. He can't mine. After the golden sand of the Jinsha River was fished out by him, he didn't think about making gold in it. The same goes for jadeite. Since there is so much jadeite at the bottom of the lake, there must be some jadeite mine. But he didn't even look for it, and there were enough at the bottom of the lake. In his opinion, the greatest benefit of that space for him was the biological resources inside, and in his real world, he happened to have a large piece of land.

The number of farm workers has increased from less than 100 to more than 200 now, of which more than 130 are Chinese. The vast majority of the rest are nearby Brazilian residents - mostly Orichmina villagers. Most of these workers are concentrated in grazing and farming areas. Elsewhere, a large number of workers are needed only during certain periods.

These workers have to spend tens of millions of reais every year on salaries, insurance, etc., which is a lot of pressure.

This large-scale renovation of wasteland and road construction cost Li Sheng hundreds of millions of dollars. Although his current funds are not as abundant as before, he is still very rich. At least you don't need to borrow money to operate.

What's more, Ali's side has paid a billion dollars in the past, and there are nearly two billion dollars left to pay it within a year. So it is impossible for him to be short of money in the near future.

Li Sheng couldn't think of what could be planted on the remaining hillside for the time being, so he walked back with Cha Xi on his back.

It took several kilometers of walking to the concrete road, which was the newly repaired road. The road is not very wide, and there is some room for two trucks to be able to drive side by side.

His car was parked on the side of the road. This car is not a luxury car, just a pickup truck. He opened the door, and Wildcat got into the car first, and then he put Chahi in the back seat and fastened his seat belt.

He was about to close the car door when the sound of airplanes was heard in the sky.

Chahi clumsily unbuckled his seat belt and looked at the sky with the car door: "Is Daddy back?"

Li Sheng is also not sure. Airplanes are a very common means of transportation in the rainforest. Quite a few large farmers have small airplanes. He looked up for a moment and saw that the plane was slowly decreasing altitude, and it should be Thomas and they were back.

He smiled and pressed the little thing to the seat, helped her fasten the seat belt again, and said, "It's your daddy who is back, sit down, and we'll go back immediately." ”

Half an hour later, Li Sheng's car arrived at the office in Pingyuan District. He walked into the office with Chahi in his arms, Thomas and Anthony were there, and Zhang Feng was also there. They were talking about airdrops.

Li Sheng smiled and asked them, "It's going well." ”

"The weather was good. The airdrop is very accurate. Thomas said with a smile. Of course, Anthony's flying skills are the main factor. ”

The indigenous tribe was in the middle of the dense forest, and the gap in the canopy was probably less than twenty meters, and it was not easy for them to accurately drop the small skylight.

"After the airdrop, we circled high in the air for a while, and those people picked up the supplies. I think they're getting ready to enjoy those things by now. "Anthony is more than half Indian, and he has a lot of Indian features in appearance, such as black hair and black eyes. And he was psychologically inclined to the Indians. He was glad to be able to help other Indians now.

Seeing Anthony, Chahi began to yawn, and Anthony fell asleep in a daze as he held him in his arms. Anthony smiled and said, "Lee, thank you for taking care of Chahi. ”

Li Sheng joked: "You're welcome, Anthony, in fact, I always regret not adopting her before you." ”

"Haha, it's too late for you to regret it. ”

Li Sheng laughed and said, "I'm trying to snatch her over." ”

After laughing, Li Sheng asked Zhang Feng: "Lao Zhang, there is still a place in the hilly area that I can't think of what to plant, what do you suggest?"

Lao Zhang shook his head and said, "I can't think of it either." There are now more varieties of crops on the farm than I have seen on several farms combined. ”

Although he was a farmer, the peasants did not know everything about agriculture.

Li Sheng pondered for a while and said, "I remember that Brazilians also use a lot of herbs, so can we grow some herbs?" ”

"Lee, I don't think that's a good idea. Brazilians now use fewer and fewer herbal medicines. And the herbs they need can be fully met in the jungle. Thomas reminded.

Li Sheng thought about it, and it was indeed like that. The main people who use herbal medicine are Indians or descendants of immigrants from the older generation, and today's young people trust Western medicine more.

Since he couldn't think of it, Li Sheng also put this matter down for the time being. He asked Zhang Feng again: "How is the green manure reserve?"

"Rice cultivation needs can definitely be met before the rainy season. The hilly side started late and there may be some gaps. ”

Li Sheng said "um", and only after a long time did he say: "The workers in charge of accumulating fertilizer are assigned more to hilly areas." When the rainy season begins, the fertility of those lands declines a little faster. ”

"Good. Zhang Feng nodded and wrote down the matter in his notebook.

"How is the completion of the paddy field renovation work?"

"Sixty thousand acres have been ploughed and are currently flooded. The remaining 20,000 acres can be turned over in five days, and as long as the rainy season doesn't come too early, the planting can be completed before the rainy season begins. ”

Li Sheng nodded and said, "The work of manure accumulation needs to improve some efficiency. Starting this year, paddy fields can be planted twice a year, and fertility will have to keep up. ”

In tropical rainforests, where there is a lot of rain, the temperature is high, humus is easy to decompose, and the soil is relatively acidic, and he hopes to solve this problem with green manure. Green manure can not only make up for the loss of nutrients in paddy fields, but also neutralize acidity to a certain extent because some lime is added.

That was a plan that had been made a long time ago, and Zhang Feng was also very concerned about this matter. He is a farmer and knows that if the soil is highly acidic, it is easy to induce rice blast. So those green manure is indispensable at least for the first few years.

"I'll keep an eye on this. Zhang Feng paused and said. "That's right, boss. Ding Jiaqiang is recently experimenting with a relatively novel farming model. ”

When Li Sheng heard this, he was a little curious.

Ding Jiaqiang is a comrade-in-arms recruited by Zhang Dingbian. It's the one who has been raising pigs in the army for more than ten years. He is currently in charge of pig farming. The location of the pig farm is relatively marginal. It can be said that it is relatively remote. So Li Sheng didn't meet the other party after he met each other. This shows that the other party is a person who is responsible for his work, and Li Sheng is the opposite.

But what good idea does this person have?

I only heard Zhang Feng say: "He found a strange phenomenon. The leaves left behind by the sweet elephant grass that have been eaten by snails are very fond of pigs. He conducted an experiment in which some pigs were fed sweet elephant grass that had been eaten by snails, one batch was fed directly harvested, and the last batch was still fed with the previous feed. All other conditions are as consistent as possible. After a month of breeding, the pigs that had eaten for the snails gained more than 20 catties more than the other batch. The average weight gained six pounds more than the previous feed. ”

Li Sheng didn't know that there was such a thing: "Then how is his experiment going to be done?"

"He made a presentation and was going to do an experiment. It is intended to form a breeding model of sweet elephant grass and snails, pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, and fish. Zhang Feng said and took out a copy of more than 20 sheets of A4 paper. "I took a look at it and thought it was good. But I don't know much about that either. ”

Li Sheng turned over the result document and said with a smile: "Then leave the professional matter to the professional people." Let him go and do it. ”

He was now wondering if the snails that had been taken out of the space had any special ability to promote animal growth.
