Volume 2 Chapter 1 Seeing Things with the Farmer's Mindset (I)

Even in rainforests, there are droughts. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The drought has affected countless animals in the rainforest, and countless animals are on the verge of death because of the drought. Anthony came back from shopping for supplies and said that there was a stinking oxbow lake along the river, and countless fish in it were killed by heat.

That happens almost every year on the Amazon at the height of the dry season, but here or there.

Lack of food, lack of water. Drought is taking a toll on the animals in the rainforest. Even in large rivers, animals are threatened by drought. The reduced amount of water makes them more susceptible to predators. For example, crocodiles are more likely to catch dense schools of fish during this season. During the rainy season, large numbers of fish are scattered across the swamped jungle, making it impossible to catch them easily.

Even the animals in the water are threatened by the dry season, let alone those on land. That includes certain human beings. For example, the indigenous people in the depths of the jungle.

For several days, there have been news reports on the news that government planes have airdropped supplies to indigenous people deep in the jungle to help them survive the dry season. Thomas, a former soldier whose professional mission is to kill people, begins to swell his humanity after he becomes a jungle expert.

He suggested that Li Sheng also help the indigenous tribe in the farm forest area. His reasoning is very 'great': "By doing so, they will be less hostile to us." ”

Well, what Li Sheng is most afraid of now is trouble. The indigenous tribe was very hostile to outsiders because of the previous incidents of loggers abusing the natives.

Although the incident happened before Li Sheng bought the farm, he had to carry this pot. And Thomas's suggestion is really constructive.

"Then we'll also airdrop supplies?"

Thomas nodded and said, "That's all I can do now." "He has also found the location of the tribe of the indigenous people. But this tribe is a tribe that has never been discovered before, and they speak a separate language.

Anthony could speak more than a dozen Indian languages, but he did not understand them at all. They tried to make contact with each other, but were chased back by each other's bows and arrows.

The only way Thomas could think of it was to gradually eliminate the hostility of the other side. It's just that now the two sides will only engage in conflict, and all they can do is show goodwill without touching each other.

"They don't necessarily know how to eat rice. But we can grind rice into powderwood. At the same time, some frozen pork and beef can be airdropped to them. Also, you can get some sugar and salt. ”

Li Sheng nodded and said, "Then do it." ”

Thomas must have been thinking about this for a long time. He added: "But we can't drop too much from the sky. Otherwise, it will make them dependent on us. I think one airdrop a week should be pretty much the same. ”

Li Sheng smiled and said, "You're right. And after the rainy season, we can also airdrop, but mainly salt and candy. The main food will not be delivered. ”

Thomas also had an idea: "I think we could put a couple of listeners in the things that were given to them, pick up some of their conversations, and see if anyone could decipher their language." ”

"Good idea!" Li Sheng clapped his hands. Deciphering language is something that ordinary people can't play, and it takes an expert. Linguists or anthropologists may be interested in a new language and a newly discovered indigenous tribe. It would be much easier for these people to decipher the language of this indigenous tribe. If they can't crack it, the farm can't do it.

He thought for a moment and said, "You can promote the airdrop on Facebook about giving them airdrops." Of course, you don't have to be too deliberate, you can draw it out by hoping to decipher their language and communicate with the other party. ”

Although the Green Harmony organization no longer deliberately makes negative propaganda about Silent Farm, Silent Farm still lies their guns from time to time. Wherever illegal deforestation occurs, their propaganda is implicated in Silent Farms.

Moreover, Silent Farm had shown its face in the world once before because of a verbal fight with the Green Harmony Organization, but after the Green Harmony Organization stopped protesting, the topic slowly calmed down. Maybe this incident can make the Silent Farm appear in front of the world again.

Thomas is now the de facto head of publicity for Silent Farm. He immediately heard what Li Sheng meant, and said with a smile: "I understand." I'll take the propaganda seriously. ”

Li Sheng's request did not violate his principles, after all, Li Sheng just asked him to publicize the real thing, not to fake.

Just do what you say is Li Sheng's style. However, Li Sheng left the matter of aiding the indigenous people to Thomas. He's not available right now. He was also busy thinking about how to use the contents of the space to fill the newly reclaimed land.

It's the rainy season again, and he's running out of time.

Thomas dragged Anthony aboard, and the two of them flew to deliver something to the natives. The task of taking care of Chahi naturally fell to Li Sheng. But the little things are okay to take care of. Chahi is more than five years old, and he has grown a little taller, but he has gained more than 25% of his weight.

Li Sheng is inspecting newly planted grapes, which are not a good idea in such a rainy tropical region.

Rain may soak the grapes, and even if they can produce grapes, too much water will reduce the glucose content. But he stubbornly planted it, and he planted a lot of it, covering more than 10,000 hectares - and this kept the workers busy for a long time.

These grapes were found in the rainforest area of space, and he had eaten those grapes, and they were very sweet. The sugar content should not be low. It is that there are more cores, and it is not ideal as a fruit for direct consumption. But if it is used for sake brewing, it is still somewhat possible.

These grapes are planted on the hillside, and the area is large enough, Li Sheng just looked at the edge. These grapes have been planted for more than a month. Most of the cuttings are alive and sprouting. If he didn't survive, he didn't bother to cut the branches from the space, and when the grapes here grew up, he would cut the branches and leaves. Anyway, the survival rate is quite high.

The little girl jumped and ran in front of her, followed by a wild cat with faint markings of hair all the time in the sun.

The wild cat was brought back to the farm by Li Sheng, and he didn't think about raising a cat, so he told him many times before letting him play with Chaxi, who had no playmates on the farm. There is Li Sheng's order, and little Chaxi is very loving to small animals, going back and forth, and one person and one cat are a little inseparable. However, this cat still often follows Li Sheng.

Li Sheng looked at the wild cat walking briskly at Chahi's feet, almost half a year had passed, and little Chahi was not hungry for it, but it was still so big. It's a bit smaller than the average domestic cat. But Chahi has gained a lot of weight.

"Lee, can I come here to pick grapes and eat them in the future?" said Chahi paused and asked the question he asks every time he comes here.

In the past, Li Sheng would smile and reply that she could eat as much as she wanted.

But today, when I saw her chubby little face on her face, I couldn't help but tease her and said, "No." Chahi is getting fatter and fatter and can't eat any more. ”

Chahi blinked, not sad, not angry. It's not that she doesn't know that fat is not a compliment. It's that she can retort eloquently: "Chahi is not fat." Chahi was only nineteen kilograms, and Daddy said that Lee must have seventy-five kilograms. Chahi is much thinner than Lee. ”

It turned out that this little girl was said to be fat by many people, so she refused to eat. Anthony coaxed her to say that everyone else was fatter than her, because everyone else was much heavier than her. So she believed.

Li Sheng smiled and said, "Yes, Chahi is the cutest." He said as he walked two steps forward to pick her up and turn her over on his back. "I'm tired of walking for so long. ”

Chahi lay on his back, his two calves swaying gently in the air, giggling and saying, "Chahi is happy, not tired." "The ones who can play with her on the farm are Li Sheng and the wild cat who have nothing to do. But Li Sheng can't play with her every day.

They had all walked four or five kilometers, and this girl was only five years old, how could she not be tired? Li Sheng knew that she was just still excited, and if she continued to let her go again, she would definitely cry out that her feet hurt at night.

Carrying small things on their backs, they also go a little faster. Passing through a col, there was a clearing in front of him, a place where he hadn't decided what to plant.
