Volume III Chapter 88 Worries and Expectations

Although Zhang Feng and Huang Bin were told not to let people know the specific condition of the No. 5 cattle herd, Li Sheng still couldn't be completely reassured. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After leaving the cattle pen, he flew to the security team in a helicopter and found Zhang Dingbian. Zhang Dingbian did not have a separate office, and Li Sheng motioned for him to follow him out.

The two walked slowly on the empty runway, Li Sheng looked around and was not afraid of someone eavesdropping, so he said: "Something happened on the farm, and there are cows in the No. 5 cattle pen that are sick." ā€

Zhang Dingbian knew that his words were not finished, but he just listened quietly and did not speak.

Li Sheng stood still, turned to him and said, "I'm worried that someone outside will use this matter to deal with the farm after they find out." ā€

Zhang Dingbian frowned and said, "Boss, are you worried that someone on the farm wants outsiders to report the news?"

Li Sheng nodded and explained very seriously: "I also hope that I am too worried." But I can't afford not to guard against it. If something really happens, on the surface, as long as the cow's disease is cured, there will be nothing to lose on the farm, but don't forget about the urine of the media. In addition, if someone deliberately treats the entire herd of cattle on the farm as a whole, the cattle on the farm may not be able to be sold for a long time. I'm going to lose a lot of liquidated damages alone. Not to mention such things, the media can easily cause panic in the market. ā€

Zhang Dingbian finally understood why Li Sheng was so serious about monitoring the farm himself, as Li Sheng said, if the outside media exaggerated the condition of the farm's cattle, people who had previously liked to eat Silent Farm beef might give up because they were worried.

He understood the seriousness of the matter and said no more: "I understand. I'll arrange for someone to do it. ā€

Li Sheng nodded, then turned around and walked back: "You don't need too many people to know about this matter. Just monitor to see if anyone has unusual contact with people outside. ā€

Zhang Dingbian walked side by side with him and said, "I understand, we will try to avoid the workers from knowing." However, I would suggest that the farm should not approve too many people to take leave of absence recently. We'll be listening to farm workers and some unusual phone calls. ā€

Li Sheng thought about it and felt that surveillance was always a bit immoral, so he said: "If you know that you are talking to family or friends from the beginning, don't listen to it." ā€

Zhang Dingbian's brows relaxed a little and said, "I understand." In fact, there are only more than 800 calls on the farm, and it is not difficult to monitor. ā€

As if he hadn't heard his words, Li Sheng said: "The monitoring period starts today, and it will stop once the cow's condition is over." ā€

"Understood. ā€

On this day, Li Sheng has been worried about the condition of the No. 5 cattle pen herd. Call Huang Bin every two or three hours. Each time, Huang Bin would give him an up-to-date number of sick cattle. And the number of sick cattle is increasing every time. By the time he made his last call in the evening, more than 130 cows had fallen ill. However, Huang Bin said that the condition of the first five heads has been basically controlled, and now it is no longer diarrhea, but it is still under observation. And the small-scale disinfection is also in place. Li Sheng was a little more relieved.

While talking to Tia on the phone, Tia suddenly said that she was going to travel to the Southern Dynasty.

"Blanca and Anthony took Cacci to play, and they asked me if I was going. ā€

Looking at the anticipation on the little girl's screen, could Li Sheng still be able to? And he had no intention of restricting her movements, he just said, "Of course you can go." But don't buy cosmetics over there, carcinogenic ones. Also, you can't go out alone. ā€

Tia cheered and agreed to Li Sheng's request.

After hanging up the phone, Li Sheng couldn't help but smile bitterly. It's hard enough to raise a little girl as a girlfriend. I want to be a boyfriend, but I also have to be a father. This dual identity is a bit dirty.

The next day, he was concerned about the situation in the No. 5 bullpen again. I learned that there were more than 200 sick cattle overnight. However, the cattle that fell ill yesterday have improved. This shows that although it is a contagious disease, it is at least treatable.

He hurried to the No. 5 bullpen and saw that Huang Bin's eyes were bloodshot when he greeted him, and he knew that Huang Bin had not rested well last night. But he could only tell me: "Pay attention to your body." ā€

Huang Bin frowned and said, "Thank you boss for your concern, but the situation of the cattle herd is not optimistic." If this trend continues, the number of sick cattle is likely to increase by an order of magnitude. ā€

Of course, Li Sheng also knows that if it is not necessarily the outbreak of the disease, it may be just the beginning.

Huang Bin continued: "It was okay during the day, and we may still find out that there are cows in the herd in time. But not at night. A large number of sick cattle emptied their manure after the onset of the disease, waiting for us to find it the next day, perhaps having contaminated a large amount of pasture. The number of infected cattle will only increase. ā€

Li Sheng pondered for a while and asked, "Do you still think it's better to disinfect thoroughly?"

Huang Bin nodded and said, "Actually, there are other methods of disinfection, such as pesticides. That kills germs, but it doesn't harm the pasture. ā€

Li Sheng thought to himself, it's strange if it's not harmful. If pesticides are sprinkled here, it is quite like the entire pasture grass is sprinkled. But he couldn't say anything about it: "But what about the cows? What do they eat when they are sprayed? I am afraid that there is no pesticide that will expire on the same day after use." ā€

Huang Bin wanted to tell the cattle to forage in the pasture outside. However, that can also cause the disease to spread outward. The stakes are not small. He thought for a moment and said, "I heard that on the southern edge there is a wooded area, and there is pasture in it. Can we drive the herd there to graze free. ā€

Li Sheng thought for a moment and said, "It's absolutely not okay to use pesticides. If the cattle are driven out, wouldn't it be more difficult to control if there were new cattle diseases?"

Huang Bin thought for a moment and said, "Then you only need to have the stupidest way." ā€

"What's the solution?"

"All the cattle are given medicine to prevent infection. It's just that there are too many of these cows, and I don't know when they will all be fed. ā€

Li Sheng is not very optimistic about this method. That's definitely the dumbest way to do it. The cow can't press the cow's head without drinking water. Not to mention that the cow is going to be given medicine. But he didn't know what to do, and even if he was going to agree to use pesticides, he would need to buy enough farms. The same is true for limes.

He thought for a moment and said, "Drive the herd into the woods by the river." Don't concentrate anymore. Sick cattle should be isolated in time. ā€

Huang Bin nodded and asked, "The grassland ......?"

"Report the outbreak. When I came back after buying lime, disinfect it with lime. Li Sheng was also very helpless to make such a decision. Perhaps doing so will cause the entire range of the No. 5 cattle pen to die. But it's better than using pesticides to leave pesticide residues in the entire farm's pasture.

It's hard to say what mood Li Sheng is in right now. Reporting the condition of the herd and disinfecting itself are all losses for Silent Farm. In particular, the star epidemic prevention department reported the epidemic, and it is likely that it will be used by people with good intentions to hit the reputation of farm cattle. But he didn't report and there was no way.

As long as he buys lime, someone can think of what is going on. Rather than being exposed, it is better to take the initiative to announce it yourself, and it is more proactive to do so.

Now there is no practicing veterinarian on the farm, and since it has been reported, you can only ask an outside veterinarian to prescribe medicine, otherwise it will be illegal. If this is handled properly, perhaps the farm's reputation will not suffer much, but at most it will lose some cattle and a piece of pasture. He can afford this loss.

Now he is the richest man in the world, but he relies on grass to bring his head. Although he has only invested in it now, and his income is not at all, it does not prevent grass from eventually becoming his biggest source of income.

The people outside are not right.

According to the real situation, as long as 10 million cattle are fattened with the grass of the Silent Farm, at least 250,000 tons of dry forage are consumed on average every day, and the cost of selling the hay on the farm is about 180 reais. The tax is about two hundred and twenty per ton. He earns five hundred reais for one ton of pasture. That's the equivalent of R$1.25 billion a day. In a year, at least hundreds of billions of dollars.

Of course, that's a theoretical value, and in fact the income will definitely be much less. Because it's not every day that 10 million cattle have to be fattened with the grass of Silent Farm. But in any case, the profit will not be less.

If the reputation of pasture is ruined because of 50,000 head of oxen, he will have no place to cry.

After explaining the incident, he was so upset that he didn't stay on the spot to watch the workers drive the cattle, and flew back to the management area. He asked Babur to prepare to procure lime. The great plains have to buy lime far away. Babur can only contact suppliers online.

Li Sheng returned to the villa a little listlessly.

According to the sales proceeds of the farm, he doesn't have to worry too much about the loss of even 50,000 head of cattle. That's only a hundred million dollars or two. What's more, those cattle may not all be lost.

However, this is the biggest setback he has encountered since running the ranch, and he is not as powerless as he is now when someone has planned the farm. Faced with that little germ, he had no choice but to risk destroying a large area of grassland to solve the problem.

But when he returned to the villa, he saw that the two roses had already bloomed. When it was transplanted before, it was still in the bud state. When I left today, I didn't pay attention to something in my heart, but I didn't expect it to bloom in less than two days.

The colorful flowers did make people feel happy, but what pleased Li Sheng with the wind was that these roses and mulberry trees really needed the water of the stream to survive. Now that a solution has been found, these two new things can all the way to the farm.

The depressed mood was diluted a lot by good things, and Li Sheng was also in the mood to do other things. He now took out a map of the farmland in the hilly area and considered what to do with it.

In fact, these pieces of land are not particularly flat, not very far apart but not too close. Instead, he was thinking of using all the land to transplant something new he had found near the creek. He plans to see if he can breed frogs on the farm. Colorful roses he also intends to use greenhouses to grow in large quantities. That kind of mulberry tree, he intends to occupy a lot of land.

But there is only one creek. The amount of water in that creek is not large, only about two cubic meters per second, and it needs to irrigate 600 square kilometers of land, which is enough to choke on water. And even if it can meet that irrigation demand, the direction of the stream needs to be carefully considered.

He wrote, painted, and calculated for a long time. The decision was made at the end.

Frog farming doesn't really require much water. It doesn't take much to change the water in a pond even once a day. Roses can be irrigated with sprinklers, while mulberries can be irrigated with drip irrigation. The rainforest does not have to worry about hail, and the colorful roses can be grown using a glass greenhouse. This will effectively avoid insect infestation.

Each greenhouse uses steel pipes and plastic glass, and an area of one acre is not a problem. If you build 10,000 plus roads, you need about 12,000 to 13,000 acres. Frog ponds can also be built, but this one can be done slowly. First set aside 1,000 acres of land for later use. It should be enough to plant a million acres of mulberry trees.

As for the rest of the land, other cash crops can be grown, and food can also be continued to grow.

However, if those three things are really implemented according to the plan, I am afraid that the farm will need to add hundreds or even thousands of people to be busy. (To be continued.) )
