The cows on the farm are milked three times a day, so Luna and Dick are the hardest workers, even with the help of many milking tools, but they are tired enough. The scale of a few hundred cows is actually not very large, and it is a little inconvenient for the milk truck to come several times a day.

If the milk is made into cheese, the farm will add another income. But Wang Hao felt that there were enough miscellaneous things on the ranch now, and there was no need to get some cheese out, he didn't like to eat these things.

"Boss, I saw that the blueberries on the other side of the road were ripe, so we can go and pick them back today, and then paste them with plastic wrap, so that they can be stored long enough." Pete looked at Wang Hao, who was idle, and couldn't help but remind.

Now all the work on the ranch is done by people, so Wang Hao has become quite bored, and he has to find something to do to kill time. So some trivial matters on the ranch just gave him this opportunity.

After hearing Pete's words, Wang Hao was a little surprised, he didn't know that there were blueberry trees in the ranch, he had only drunk blueberry juice, and had never seen what real blueberries looked like, so he asked curiously: "Are there enough blueberries there?" Can a few of us on the ranch finish it? ”

"I'm afraid not, I've seen the bushes stretch so far that if we don't pick them, the rest of the animals will eat them. If it's too much, you can sell it to the city over there in Swanhill, after all, blueberries are in demand. ”

It just so happened that Su Jing walked down at this time, and she looked at Wang Hao with an excited face. Suspiciously, he asked, "Is there anything to be happy about in the pasture?" ”

"Of course, go get a long dress and pants. We went to the bushes on the edge of the ranch and stepped on blueberries, once or twice a year. If you miss it, it's really gone! Wang Hao kept urging, he liked to work outside.

Gathering all the other cowboys who didn't have work on the ranch, Wang Hao asked everyone to put on straw hats and sunscreen, and then sat on the pickup truck and rushed towards the edge of the ranch. The pickup truck has a lot of boxes in it, and the blueberries you have picked can be placed inside.

The straight and empty road is because of the good air conditions, so you can see the far and far places, and the road suddenly hangs down at the end, and there is no more, only Australia has such a road.

On both sides of the highway are green fields, with herds of cattle and sheep. Eat a mouthful of grass with each heart, and look up at the "foreign eyes". Occasionally, a wild kangaroo or two would suddenly cross the road as if they remembered something, and then stand in the shade of a tree, looking back at the car in horror and making a "frightened" look. Of course, no matter what they are, the koala koalas in the eucalyptus trees by the road will not be interested, and they will still calmly dream about them.

Australia's pristine style makes many people yearn for it. And the idyllic atmosphere of Australian ranches makes those who are busy in the concrete crazy. Blue skies, white clouds, cows and sheep, accompanied by green grass and houses in the wilderness, comfort and leisure instantly fill the whole sensory world. The sunshine, blue skies, white clouds, clear water and endless pastures in Australia are the most soothing things in Australia, and the pastures on both sides of the high roads are impressive.

The pickup truck was parked under a small hill. Wang Hao looked at the bushes all over it, and said with a smile: "Even I didn't know that there were blueberry trees here, and Joseph didn't tell me before." Thankfully, Pete noticed. Otherwise, we would have lost such a large piece. ”

That's right, from this vantage point you can see the high highway that stretches all the way to the horizon. And along the road, the pasture hills are covered with blueberry trees. If the hands and feet are not sharp enough. They couldn't finish picking the blueberries all day.

"It's beautiful, I hope there aren't bugs or flies here." After Su Jing sighed, he began to worry again, after all, Australian snakes really can't make people worry. Maybe when you pick your own blueberries, a snake will emerge from the tree or in the grass, and that will be a problem.

Wang Hao smiled slightly, he already had a perfect strategy, but this method could not be known by others. He performed a repellent spell on everyone, and neither mosquitoes nor snakes and rats instinctively stayed away from them. As long as the spell effect on the body is still there, then there is no need to worry.

Such a small spell was not a burden for Wang Hao, the only trouble was that he had to recast it every hour.

Blueberries are very expensive fruits, which can be sold for more than 20 Australian dollars a kilogram in the city, and more than 110 yuan when converted into RMB. The blueberries in the mountains should be able to produce a large amount, not only to meet the needs of the pasture, but also to sell the excess blueberries to the market, the best of both worlds.

The blueberry tree is a man's height, and the blueberry fruit resembles a grape, hanging in bunches on the branches. It is much smaller than a grape, the size of a thumb, and oblate. Blueberries that are growing are turquoise, and blueberries that are ripe but not fully ripe have small red circles at the bottom; Ripe blueberries have a nice powder blue color on the outside.

As for blueberries, Neil, who has always had a strong sense of zài, explained to everyone: "You can only pick these blueberries that are ripe, and keep them for later picking." Blueberry picking also requires skill, and you can watch my movements, it's very simple, and you can learn it as soon as you learn it. ”

He reached under a bunch of blueberries, only to see his fingers hook slightly, and the blueberries rolled down into his palm one by one. Neil gently plucked the blueberries in a small white bucket tied around his waist and stored them in a flat, red box that he poured into the cargo box of the pickup truck when the bucket was full.

Wang Hao also picked a few blueberries with his hands as he did, and no matter what was on the blueberry, he threw it directly in his mouth, gently biting the peel, and a sweet and refreshing juice came out. He picked up another one from the palm of his hand, handed it to Su Jing's mouth, and said with a smile: "Come, open your mouth, I'll feed you one." ”

"Boss, are you embarrassed to show affection in front of so many single people?" Luna deliberately said in a sour tone, she followed Wang Hao's example, plucked a grape from the tree, and brought it to Katie's mouth, and the two hot beauties laughed and trembled.

Su Jing was already much more cheeky at this time, she smiled lightly and said, "This blueberry is really good, much better than things like apples." I decided that I would skip dinner today and just eat some blueberries! ”

The blueberries here are natural and pollution-free, without any pesticides or fertilizers on them, so they can be eaten directly after picking. The cowboys also reached out and grabbed a handful of blueberries to taste, and they laughed and laughed, and they didn't take it seriously.

When the scorching sun shines in the sky, there are no flowers smiling, Wang Hao's expulsion technique can only drive away insects and animals, but cannot isolate the heat of the sun. So they all have to endure the scorching heat and enjoy the pleasure of sweat dripping down.

"No, no, no, I have to hide in the shade and rest for a while." After all, Katie is a college graduate, and she has never done such intense work outdoors, so she takes off her hat and sits under the shade of the blueberry tree, leaning her back against the trunk, and from time to time she reaches out and unscrews two blueberries and stuffs them into her mouth.

As if infected by Katie, Luna and Su Jing sat in the shade of another tree holding hands, and they looked at the men who were still picking blueberries and shouted, "Come on, you guys are the best!" ”

Wang Hao put his hands together, and after holding them into a container, he used his fingers to pluck the blueberries one by one, which was much easier to pick and could prevent the blueberries from falling to the ground.

Among all of them, Wang Hao is the hardest, he is not only responsible for picking blueberries, but also collects the blueberries picked by everyone and puts them in a plastic box. In order to prevent the blueberries from wilting in the sun, he had to move the plastic basket under the shade of the tree and break off a leafy branch and place it on top of the blueberries to prevent too much steaming.

When everyone sat down to rest, Wang Hao was picking and screening these blueberries with a bitter face. Broken, soft blueberries can only be thrown on the ground as natural fertilizer for these blueberry trees, and unripe blueberries are also thrown out.

Suddenly, Luna exclaimed, pointing to the blueberry tree opposite, her fingers trembling and almost speechless, her eyes revealing horror! Wang Hao hurriedly walked over to take a look, only to find that there was a thick group of insects piled up on the tree, and it seemed that all the insects around him were concentrated here.

"No wonder I didn't meet any bugs when I picked them before, they are all here, it's disgusting!" Katie studied veterinary medicine after all, so she was able to maintain her true colors in front of these bugs. She even wanted to catch a bug to see what was driving the little ones to party.

Wang Hao secretly said that it was not good, this expulsion technique could not eliminate the insects, but only stimulated the insects away from the cowboys, which may be an unknown biological electric wave or the rest. He had no idea that the bugs would gather together.

An even more violent thought came to his mind, since bugs can gather, what about snakes? Could the exorcised snakes form a sea of snakes somewhere in this bush?

What came to his mind was some snake-related horror movies he had watched when he was a child, and a chill rose up his spine.

"Stay away from this tree, let's just pick the blueberries from these trees today, and talk about the rest tomorrow. Pick blueberries in the morning and pack them in the afternoon, I don't want to come out in the afternoon, no one can stand the weather!
