"Hey, why are the people in Honghe Village looking sad recently?"

"Yes, the family where I stayed was also forced to smile, as if something big had happened......"

"I heard that the vegetables in their greenhouse are causing a plague!"

“……”

In the past few days, tourists have found that many villagers in Honghe Village have lost their smiles, and they have a sad face all day long, and they hurriedly walk to the greenhouse, and come back with a tired face. Tourists don't know that the villagers are worried about the insect plague of vegetables, because pesticides cannot be used, and other methods do not work.

So I had no choice but to grab it by hand.

But it is too slow to catch insects manually, and it turns out that the lush vegetables have turned yellow and wilted without life in the past few days, except for the vegetables that have been manually removed.

"Hey, such a big piece, when will you catch it with your hands?" Oolong sighed.

Although his father praised his son's complaints, their older generation is down-to-earth, "Don't complain, don't stop when you talk, this is a dish worth dozens of dollars a pound, it's a pity to be eaten by insects......"

"Why don't you sue Brother Sù Asheng? Maybe he can do something to get rid of the insects......"

Another villager wiped the beads of sweat from his cheeks when he heard Oolong's words, and said, "What can be done?" You can't use pesticides, and you can't put chickens and ducks in to eat, what is the best way to do it except manually catch it by hand? ”

"But ......"

"If you don't tell him, he's afraid that he's worried, Brother Asheng has something to do in Yangcheng, so let him worry about it......"

"Yes, let's hurry up, you see how hard the third uncle is!" Oolong's father glanced at Tang Qingshan and them, and sighed.

……

"What? What did you just say? Vegetable infestation? Tang Shenyuan almost threw away the phone, and his voice couldn't help but be loud, almost deafening Tang Shilong over there;" Why didn't you tell me about such a big deal earlier? ”

"The third uncle and the third aunt won't let us sue you, it's useless to say that suing you, and it will make you worry about ......"

"You can't hide it from me, no, I'll go back today......"

Tang Shenyuan was anxious, because Tang Shilong said that all the vegetables in the greenhouse were provoked by insects, except for the part that was caught at the beginning, about eight acres of other land were plagued by insects, and the insects in the vegetable field seemed to have mutated, and they were all larger than the average kind......

"Brother Asheng......" Tang Shilong still wanted to persuade Tang Shenyuan not to get angry in a hurry, but when he heard that the other side was about to hang up the phone, he hurriedly said: "Victoria can't supply the goods over there, Assistant Sun called me just now!" ”

"All the acres of land in my family have been received?"

"Hmm!"

Tang Shenyuan calculated that it had been nearly twenty days, and there were really not many vegetables in one acre of land, only a few thousand catties, and it was time to finish picking.

"The vegetables in the greenhouse are about to be marketed, right?" Tang Shenyuan asked.

"If it weren't for the insect plague, it would be on the market in a few days!" Tang Shilong nodded. "It's a pity that many vegetables have turned yellow because of insects now......

This insect plague was really unexpected by Tang Shenyuan, he knew that the space spring water was conducive to the growth of living beings, and since it could promote the growth of vegetables, it was also beneficial to creatures such as insects; This insect plague is obviously because of the spring water, which makes them grow tenaciously, which is the reason why the insects Tang Shilong just said are relatively large.

"What to do? These vegetables can not be pesticides, otherwise not only will the batch of vegetables be wasted, but the next batch of vegetables will not be safe after the land is polluted, and more importantly, the word of mouth problem! Tang Shenyuan grabbed a handful of hair and said to himself: "How can I kill insects without pesticides?" ”

"By the way, ask Professor Wu Shengming!" Professor Wu is a student of biology, so he should know how to prevent insects. "The important thing now is to go back first!"

This time the vegetables are not to be missed, because if this planting fails, many people in the village will have doubts about the project proposed by Tang Shenyuan, and they may not believe him in the future, how can they lead everyone to get rich in the future?

"No, I have to go back and see ...... first" Tang Shenyuan hurriedly took the car and went home, saying goodbye to Dong Xiyu, and she was too busy with work to go, Tang Shenyuan got rid of her and said to the fat man, and then went back with the mouse.

It takes eight hours from Yangcheng to Honghe Village, and now it is not the Spring Festival, so the traffic on the road is good, and if there is a traffic jam, you may not be able to get home for a day.

"Abba and Mommy, I'm back......" Tang Shenyuan saw his parents from afar, so he hurriedly stopped the car, "Where are you going?" ”

"Ah Sheng, why did you come back?" Tang's father was very surprised to see his son, but the smile on his face was a little far-fetched because he was worried about vegetables, "You must be tired when you drive back, you and your classmates should go back and rest first......"

"Dad, is there a pest plague in vegetables?" Seeing that his father was surprised, Tang Shenyuan was a little angry: "Why don't you sue me for such a big matter?" No, I'm going to check ...... first."

Although he drove for eight hours, Tang Shenyuan's body was good, and he didn't feel tired, but the mouse who was sitting in the car looked tired, Tang Shenyuan saw that he was going to follow and hurriedly stopped him, "You help me drive the car back, and then take a break!" ”

The mouse wanted to say more, but Tang Shenyuan had already left, so he had to drive to Tang Shenyuan's house.

"Brother Asheng, you're back, great!"

"Look at these vegetables, they're all full of bugs......"

"I feel like my waist is going to break when I catch insects these days, I'm so tired but there is no result, these insects are simply 'inexhaustible' how to catch it, and it's a pity to see such good greens being eaten by them little by little......"

“……”

When the villagers saw Tang Shenyuan's figure, they immediately surrounded him and said.

"Uncles and brothers, uncles and aunts, you have worked hard...... Tang Shenyuan said apologetically: "I didn't have this kind of thing during this time, thanks to your help in dealing with the insect plague......"

"Why is this kid talking so politely...... "After all, it's a college student, and he can talk!" "Don't talk so much about it, let's see how to deal with the insect plague first!" “……”

Tang's father said to Tang Shenyuan: "Most of these insects are aphids, red spiders and cabbage insects, this kind of insect is not difficult to control, but you see that they are twice as big as the average, and they can't use pesticides, so they can only be caught manually......

Tang Shenyuan touched his face and said in embarrassment: "It's useless to catch it manually...... After grabbing the vegetables, there are still on the ground, and they can't be cleaned. "He saw that everyone bent down to catch the small insects on the vegetables, there are at least dozens of small insects on a vegetable, and they are relatively hidden, it is difficult for people to catch them, so the progress of the work is slow, not to mention that people are very tired." Let them stop first, I'll figure it out......"

"What can be done?" Tang's mother said in disbelief: "We have all been planting the land all our lives, and we have thought about all the methods that can be used, what other ways can we kill all the insects besides using pesticides?" ”

"We can't use ......pesticides," Tang exclaimed.

"We all know green vegetables...... That's why I've waited until now, and I've used it a long time ago! Oolong came over at this time, followed by Tang Guangan.

Chirping!

Tang Shenyuan pinched and exploded an aphid with his hand, and its juice* was plucked and splashed out; This is an aphid the size of a soybean, ordinary aphids are the size of a grain of rice, it can be seen that they have also mutated after being transformed by the space spring!

Tang Shenyuan wondered in his heart, how could there be insects growing in the acre of land planted at home before, but what about growing in this greenhouse? It stands to reason that there should be no insects in the greenhouse, and the vegetables outside are easy to provoke insects. "Well, it shouldn't be a matter of the greenhouse, but of the spiritual water!"

Why?

Because Tang Shenyuan thought of a problem, that is, the seeds of the acre of vegetables planted by his family were not soaked when they were planted, and the vegetables in the greenhouse were soaked in spring water before planting; And the other is the problem of watering, the greenhouse vegetables have not been watered with spring water but their own ones have been watered!

There should be two links that have gone wrong, but the most important thing at this time is to control the insect plague!

Tang Shenyuan asked Tang's father, "Dad, Professor Wu, are they still in the village?" ”

"No, they left the day after you went to Yangcheng...... If the old professor is here, we will definitely ask him to help figure it out......"

Rural people are like this, they are in awe of learned people, thinking that they are omniscient.

"Oh, then I'll give him a call and ask him what he can do...... Don't catch bugs yet, it's useless! ”

"Well, you call first, we'll stay later!" Although Father Tang dealt with Tang Shenyuan in his mouth, he did not slow down under his hands, but accelerated the speed of catching insects. He thought that if he could catch one, he would have one less, "Blessed are the chickens at home later!" ”

These bugs are good chicken feed.

"Dad...... Mom ...... "Tang Shenyuan saw that his parents didn't listen to him, and he was a little helpless.

"You call the old professor first, we have nothing to do anyway, just catch bugs here......" Father Tang took the time to wave his hand to Tang Shenyuan, signaling him to go first.

Although the other villagers were not very happy to catch insects like this, they couldn't be lazy when they saw that Tang's father and Tang mother were all working hard, so they swept the insects on the vegetables with an army of insects...... Well, that's an exaggeration.

"Brother Asheng, go back first, while it's still early, let's catch it for a while, we should be able to clean up three or four points of land......" Oolong bent over and said, but his hand was not slow, he has practiced catching insects in the past few days, as long as the insects he saw, none of them could escape from the palm of his hand, grabbed one and threw it into a bucket filled with water, soaked it to death and took it home to feed the chickens......
