Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

On the grass east of the chicken coop on Yunsha Island, two new chicken mothers are each leading a group of children for a walk.

Lai Shun'er and Xizi observed with great interest on the side, and exchanged a few comments from time to time.

After a while, Lai Shun'er looked up at the sky, and then bent down to hold the plastic flat bucket resting on the ground in his hand. It contains a special nutrient mixture for feeding the chicks, which is diluted in a ratio of 100 to 1.

Brother Chenzi has not come to the island recently, and the water storage stone pit on the edge of the gourd depression has always been prepared by him using the nutrient water stock solution.

"Let's go, get them all to the kindergarten, it's time to feed." He turned his face to Kiko and said.

Kiko nodded, and picked up another wooden trough with a removable handle, which contained a paste made from millet and vegetable residues.

This is naturally a new job done by a stone carpenter, and it is indeed quite convenient to say that there is such a guy on the island, and you just need to say hello to something.

The so-called kindergarten is a new chicken coop that they just built not far from the old chicken coop a few days ago. It is also a structure with a wooden keel bamboo mat fence on the outside of the rock wall, with a thatched rain shelter on it.

The area is smaller than the original, and it is mainly used for hens and children, so it is called a kindergarten.

Based on previous experience in the countryside, hens hatch with young and are no longer suitable for living with other chickens during their time with their young. Because poultry such as chickens and ducks have a limited IQ, chicks are likely to be attacked and injured by other large chickens, so they must be isolated and fed.

The two of them stepped forward. yelled and drove the two hens in the direction of the kindergarten.

Because they were acquaintances, the hen was not very alarmed, but spread her wings and clucked to beckon the children to come. Keep them under you.

When the chicks first saw the new people, they were in a mess, chirping and chirping, and one of the little flower hairballs even panicked and got under the wings of another hen. This rude act of illegal intrusion was immediately rejected and attacked by the children on the other side, and they were pecked to the point of holding their heads.

"It's stupid, your mother is here, look at it clearly. Can't find a stepmother so soon? Xizi hurriedly rushed forward and grabbed the little flower hairball that recognized her mother in her hand. Muttered and returned it to its mother.

By this time, the two hens already had some management experience. After a short time, the formation was steady. So they followed people's intentions and walked to their new homes with a dozen or so chicks.

Arriving outside the kindergarten fence, Lai Shun'er hurriedly opened the garden gate. beckoned the hens in, and the chicks followed closely behind.

Xizi pressed the formation in the back, and only after the chickens did not land on the ground did they all enter, she followed up and closed the door.

This is followed by feeding and watering to nourish the new residents.

The hen tasted it a few bites and found it very delicious, indeed a good thing, so she beckoned the children to come and enjoy it.

The chicks were already thirsty and hungry, and when they heard the order, they immediately rushed to the top. Use a tender yellow pointed mouth to peck at millet and vegetable paste.

They were so excited by the delicious meal that they didn't care about what to eat, and they chirped and huddled together and pouted their butts to grab food.

"Hehe, they're quite gluttonous." Seeing this, Kiko was very satisfied, and praised it.

Being able to eat means that there is nothing wrong with the body, and you can naturally survive healthily and not die young.

"Well, I look better than the previous generation." Lai Shun'er nodded, remembering the situation when the first generation of chickens came to the island last year.

The physical condition of the second generation of chickens in front of me seems to be much stronger than that of the parents, and it seems that the selected breeders are not bad.

He watched for a moment, then turned his gaze to the fence and the canopy.

Since there have been two litters of chickens in the second generation, it is estimated that the latter ones are indispensable, and the large expansion of the chicken flock is an obvious thing. This kindergarten can only be considered temporary, and it will have to be added and expanded in the future.

Further south, there are hills and rocky areas, overgrown with shrubs and complex terrain, which have not been developed and utilized since they came to the island.

It seems that in order to welcome more chicks, the new chicken coop will have to continue to expand southward as well.

It's just that at present, there are so many people inside and outside the island, and there are more and more projects, and it is really impossible to arrange it. I have to call Brother Chenzi again when I go back and ask about recruiting new people.

After the two of them dealt with the matter of the chicken kindergarten, they began to go back.

When I passed the vegetable patch uphill, there was a buzzing sound in the air, and I saw a large swarm of bees flapping their wings, flying from the east, and rushing straight into the vegetable patch, and quickly disappeared without a trace.

"Kiko, when will you be able to harvest honey?" Lai Shun'er asked.

These wild bees have now become house bees, and all of them live in a luxurious villa that is 80 centimeters long and 16 frames on the eastern slope.

At this time of the year, the flowers in the orchard have basically withered, and the wildflowers elsewhere are scattered. Only the vegetable fields are nourished by the special nutrient water, and the flowering and fruiting processes of various crops continue to alternate, becoming the most abundant nectar source on the whole island. Naturally, it is favored by the bee colony, and it is constantly going back and forth every day.

"It's going to be a while. The time of dividing the nest is not too long, and there is no stock in the beehive, and the honey saved now is estimated to be just enough for the old queen bee's family to eat and drink. Kiko shook her head and responded.

Lai Shun'er is not the first to ask this question. The stone carpenter had been thinking about the big beehive since he tasted wild honey last time, and had asked him several times to get some honey to quench his cravings, but he had sternly rejected them.

Recently, when the bees were busy during the day, he once looked inside through the guò beehive observation port. There is not much honey in the hexagonal houses on the nest frame, and it is still in the stage of high consumption. In addition, the old queen bee has just changed to a new environment, and she may have to adapt to it for a while, and she will not lay eggs so quickly. The number of bee colonies will not increase significantly in the short term.

"Then just wait." Lai Shun'er listened noncommittally, and continued to walk forward.

Jiang Yichen was naturally very clear about the current situation of the shortage of manpower on Yunsha Island, so he set up conditions and asked several managers under him to inquire around.

Just after May Day, Liu Minxiu, the lobby manager of Ding Xiangyuan, brought an uncle to the 303 office to let the boss see if it was suitable.

Jiang Yichen raised his eyes to take a closer look, and saw that the person who came came had a large face, squinted eyes, a red complexion, a shaved head, a slightly convex abdomen, and a somewhat fat figure.

Liu Minxiu had already reported to him yesterday that this uncle's name was Dou Fucheng, forty-three years old, and a native of Lingjiang. He is also a laid-off employee of a former state-owned enterprise.

divorced his wife a few years ago, and a daughter was also taken away by the other party. At present, he is alone, living in a very small old house in Nancheng.

Since he was laid off from the factory, he has been working as a handyman outside, and he has done a lot of work.

Although his ability is not great, it is understood that relatives and friends around him have commented that he is loyal and honest, down-to-earth and hardworking.

Jiang Yichen's initial impression of this middle-aged man is okay, he feels quite stable, at present, the island is full of hairy young men, and he really needs an older man to balance it. So I asked him to sit down on the couch and talked to him for a while.

After a few words of homely cooking, Jiang Yichen asked how the other party's cooking skills were? This is also the issue that he is most concerned about.

Dou Fucheng said that it depends on how to talk about it, and it is naturally not as good as the serious cooks in those restaurants, but it is quite famous among the neighbors, and they all say that the food they cook is fragrant, and they can smell it in the neighbors every time they cook.

But to be honest, I just know how to cook some home-cooked food, and the high-end dishes can not be played.

Jiang Yichen nodded slightly after hearing this, this is enough, there is no need for professional chefs on the island at present.

Next, he informed the general situation of Yunsha Island and the work to be done. And explain that the main problem there is that it is far away from the land, some remote and deserted, and once you take up the post, you rarely have the opportunity to return to the city, except for the official business, you can only wait for the annual leave around the Spring Festival.

Of course, there are many advantages, the most significant of which is the first-class staff food, which I believe no other company in the city can match. And all of them are grown with natural ingredients, and the island's beautiful environment and fresh air make it good for your health to work there.

As for the salary, food and housing, it is tentatively set at 3,400 yuan per month. Other bonus benefits are not included. Ask him to think about it.

Dou Fucheng has a good impression of this young, kind-spoken and temperamental little boss, and he also believes most of the statements about food.

At the end of last year, his daughter came from all over to see him, and after being prodded by a neighbor, he took his daughter to visit Dingxiangyuan once, and the spicy smell made him unforgettable. It's just that the price is too expensive, and the father and daughter only ate half full of that meal, and it made him feel distressed when he didn't have enough money. I never wanted to come again.

As for remoteness, it's not a big deal. At his age, he no longer likes the hustle and bustle of the metropolis as much as young people.

Besides, his parents died early, and he is currently alone, so he has nothing to worry about.

He squinted his eyes and pondered for a while, and then said that he would try the work for a month first, and then if both parties felt that it was appropriate, he would continue to work and come back if he didn't succeed.

Jiang Yichen nodded and agreed, it is true, the foundation of happy cooperation requires both labor and management to be in a good mood. So the two agreed, Dou Fucheng went home first to prepare and pack his luggage. Two days later, in the morning, we met at Dingxiang Garden, and then we headed to Yunsha Island together.

Sending Dou Fucheng away, Jiang Yichen also counted a matter. He went out and walked downstairs to the warehouse of the logistics department to check on the condition of the puppy Snow Pea, and planned to take this opportunity to send it to the island, after all, it was a good environment for him to grow up.

Of course, I have to talk to Qingqing, the little girl is like this, she is reluctant to let go of what she likes. (To be continued)
