This winter, the weather in New Zealand has been exceptionally cold. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In the evening, Wang Bo cut the finished tofu into pieces and took it to the balcony of the kitchen, and after a while, the tofu blocks became hard, so he picked up a piece and bit it in his mouth and tried it, and it had the strength of frozen tofu.

The fat cat brothers were greedy, they saw Lao Wang bite a piece of frozen tofu, ran over with little short legs, and each picked up a piece and turned his head to run.

After running a few meters, they turned around and looked at Lao Wang vigilantly, and saw that he was not chasing, so they stopped eating frozen tofu with confidence.

As a result, after taking a bite, Da Fat immediately ran back with frozen tofu in his mouth, put it down honestly, and then spit out the remaining tofu residue in his mouth: What the hell is this, you don't eat it!

Lao Wang laughed and made you greedy.

After laughing twice, he couldn't laugh, and the second fat was stunned to eat all the frozen tofu, and he ate it cleanly!

Eva and Lori still sleep at school, and Lori's punishment is one week, and she is not allowed to return to the castle for a week, but Eva accompanies the bed.

Wang Bo was about to go back to sleep, but the little white cow stood alone at the door and looked at him timidly, his eyes couldn't help but remind people of orphans, very pitiful.

It was unlucky to follow Lori, and Eva punished her by forbidding her to see all her pets, including the calf, for a week. For this reason, little Lori cried and resisted many times, but the resistance was ineffective, and Eva was really like a sister.

Lao Wang went over to comb its cowhide fur, patted its strong little head and said: "Don't worry, the troublemaker in your family hasn't disappeared, she is alive and well now, she eats well, it is estimated that she has grown two catties in the past few days, you stay by yourself first, okay?" ”

The little white cow didn't have a cute pet heart, so it was very stupid, but this time it seemed to understand what Lao Wang said, raised its head and mooed a few times, and slowly returned to the heart of the nest, lying there staring at the door.

In the evening, the king lay down and had a good dream, and then another heavy snowfall hit the whole of New Zealand.

Ranchers don't have to be happy about the abundance of water, as mid-to-late July is the coldest time in New Zealand, and the snow freezes shortly after it falls.

At such temperatures, the grass can easily freeze to death.

So after dawn, looking at the white outside, Lao Wang wailed and punched Xiao Wang beside him, and roared: "Ma Dan, it's time to sweep the snow again!" ”

The lion tiger beast is strong, and its figure doesn't shake after being punched, it just grins aggrievedly and runs away unhappy: I don't know how to offend you, why do you beat me if you don't agree with me?

When they arrived at the ranch, the cowboys had solemn expressions, and when they saw Wang Bo, Cousins came up and said, "Chief, it's a little too cold, and we picked out two dead hens this morning, frozen to death." ”

This was the first time that there had been non-combat attrition in the past, and in the past, both livestock and poultry had died either because of fighting with each other or because they had been caught by fire at the city gates.

The Heart of the Secondary Pasture is powerful and supports the vitality of poultry and livestock, and in this case they are very resistant to cold and heat, and no animals have been killed by heat or freezing before.

Wang Bo looked at the two fat chickens on the ground and sighed: "The temperature is abnormally low today, and there have been low temperature warnings in many places, do you have any solutions?" ”

He didn't pay the cowboys for nothing, and the cowboys had to solve the problems for him.

"It's too late to build a shed, and there's no need for that, as long as the temperature doesn't change extremely, open-air farming is reliable."

"So, we might as well buy some warm, dried grass and set up a hatchery. Cattle and sheep don't have to worry about having long hair, so as long as chickens, ducks, geese and the like can keep warm and not die. ”

Wang Bo looked at it, the livestock and poultry were honest, and they all got together to keep warm.

It may be because of the heart of the pasture, they are like someone commanding, the herd of cattle and sheep and the flock of chickens and ducks are gathered together, with the cattle, sheep and deer herd as the backbone, and the chickens, ducks and geese fill the gaps, making the most of the heat emitted by each other.

The only exception is the yaks, the white herds of their own, and such temperatures are a piece of cake for them, and they occasionally walk past the huddled herd, staring contemptuously: a group of scum.

So the soldiers split up, Peterson went to call the dry grass, and Cousins and the others drove the snow plow to the pasture.

"Is the snow still piled up where it was last time?"

Wang Bo shrugged: "Is there anything more suitable besides there?" Just go there, and now I think I can make a ski resort. ”

In the midst of suffering, a group of people took off their cotton clothes and began to work.

Xiao Wang and Zhuang Ding they were running and playing in the snow, and after a while, a wild boar came out trembling, Xiao Wang was startled, it quietly approached the wild boar from behind, opened its mouth and bit the wild boar's neck.

The wild boar was so frozen that he couldn't run, and he wailed and accepted his fate, straightened his limbs and remained motionless, and let Xiao Wang drag and run in the snow casually.

Wang Bo swept the snow and saw a nest of eggs, he tried it after getting his hands, the temperature was frighteningly cold, these eggs were wasted, it was impossible to hatch, and he lost a lot this winter.

Compared to other ranches, his loss is small.

Peterson, who ordered dry grass, then came back and sighed: "Shet, the price of fine grass has risen sharply, in the past, you couldn't use eighty yuan for one ton, but now you need one hundred and fifty yuan!" ”

Wang Bodao: "I knew that we would also get some fine grass to plant, so maybe we could sell it for some money." ”

Peterson shook his head and said, "Then you have to build a pasture, and the reason why the price of fine grass in the grassland has risen is not only because of the high demand now, but also because of the lack of water in the summer, the growth of the grass this year is very poor, and most of them may lose money even if the price rises." ”

Motak, a Maori rancher, called him from behind and asked, "King, how are you doing there?" ”

"It sucks, a couple of chickens and a lot of eggs, duck eggs, goose eggs and stuff like that, damn the weather, when will it get warmer?"

Mottark wailed, "Kill you show-off dog!" Lao Tzu's cows froze to death with two of them, both with cubs! The number of frozen sheep is even larger, I don't even dare to count them, you only froze to death a few chickens and ducks? ”

Wang Bo smiled dryly: "Of course, the cattle and sheep also froze to death, I just didn't say it." ”

New Zealand's food safety and sanitation controls are strict, and such animals that die unnaturally cannot enter people's tables, so they can only dig pits and bury them, and ranchers suffer great losses.

"Boss, we have to increase the amount of cattle in the spring, and now it looks like the price of beef and lamb in New Zealand will definitely rise next year," Peterson said. ”

Lao Wang waved the broom like an electric fan and said, "You come to make a plan, and I'll pay for it." ”

Dead Dao friends don't die poor Dao, although this kind of thinking is shameful, but it is a fact, Lao Wang's side was not in a good mood, and when he learned that the losses of other ranches were worse than his own, his mood suddenly improved a lot...... (To be continued.) )
