Chapter 376: The Snail Becomes a Disaster
"No, uncle, call everyone to a meeting, you have to force everyone to clean up the snails together, otherwise not only the vegetables will be plagued by snails, but also the impression of tourists is not good, walk on the road and turn your head, wow, a lot of snails!"
Looking at Fang Zhong's expectant expression, Fang Yun didn't know what he was thinking, he just wanted to let himself jump out, so that he could hand over the position of village chief to himself in the future.
But Fang Yun really couldn't sit idly by, letting the villagers make a fortune was not only Fang Zhong's wish, but also Fang Yun's wish. Although some of the villagers are a little short-sighted, on the whole, they are simple and lovely.
However, Fang Yun is not worried, the uncle is only in his fifties now, and he can be the village chief for at least twenty years, with twenty years, anything can happen, maybe a suitable candidate will emerge one day?
"Okay, just do as you say." Fang Zhong smiled, looking like a fox who had stolen a chicken.
"Attention families! Attention families! Please come to the village committee meeting immediately! Suddenly, a loud horn sounded in the village, and it sounded three times in a row before stopping.
The villagers took a while to react, the horn in the village was still set up when eating a big pot of rice before, and there was one in each of the four corners of the village and the center of the village, which had not sounded for several years.
"Dog, go away for a meeting."
"Uncle, what are you doing, don't you go to the meeting yet?"
For a while, the villagers called friends and rushed to the village committee with laughter. I haven't heard a horn in many years, and I really miss it.
"Do you know what happened when the village chief called everyone here today?"
"I don't know, you know what?"
"I don't know."
A group of people stood at the door of the village committee, looking at each other, curious, Qiaotou Village was just a small mountain village, and there was nothing at all at all, it was all trivial things, and they were solved in private.
Even if it can't be solved in private, it is generally discussed by the village chief Fang Zhong with several elderly people with the highest seniority, even some elderly people. I remember that there were not many times when the whole village had a meeting.
"Alright. Don't make any noise! Fang Zhong has been the village chief for many years, and he is still quite majestic, and as soon as he opened his mouth, the buzzing discussion suddenly subsided. Everyone looked up at Fang Zhong who was standing in front of them.
Fang Zhong nodded with satisfaction. He coughed lightly and said, "Call everyone this time." In fact, it was Fang Yun's idea, so let Fang Yun talk to you about it. ”
"Papapapa" A few young people who were mixed in the crowd applauded vigorously, while squeezing their eyebrows at Fang Yun. Immediately applause rang out, and the villagers looked at Fang Yun with a smile one by one.
Fang Yun smiled bitterly, the uncle really spared no effort to push himself to the position of the village chief, and when everyone's applause slowly subsided, Fang Yun said with a stern face: "This time I called the big guy, just for the snails that have suddenly increased recently." ”
"Uncle Yun, isn't it just a snail, as for calling everyone to a meeting?" Fang Youcai asked aloud puzzled, a few young people were puzzled, and they thought that there was something big to bring the big guys here, it turned out to be for the little snail?
But those elderly villagers don't think so, one by one full of solemnity, they often go to the vegetable field to serve the planted vegetables, and they are also very anxious about the situation of the snail disaster, which is related to everyone's income, and it is strange not to be anxious.
"Slap" Fang Youcai's father slapped him on the back of the head, his eyes widened, and he reprimanded: "What are you yelling about!" Listen carefully to your Uncle Yun. ”
Fang Youcai's neck shrunk, he didn't dare to speak, he used to educate children in the countryside, but he used to use violence directly, and he didn't make any big senses, he believed in filial piety under the stick, and the anger came up, and the broom was pumped directly on you, and you cried and called your mother.
Fang Yun smiled and said: "Don't underestimate snails, once there are too many small snails, if you don't control them, you can gnaw your vegetable patch overnight, and then you won't have a place to cry." ”
"Yunzi is right, two years ago, my family's vegetable patch was plagued by snails, and it was all eaten up in one night." Fang Laogen was snorting dry tobacco, which almost made him feel distressed that time, and he had to rely on digging wild vegetables and the help of the villagers to eat vegetables.
The lesson of the past is in front of you, no one dares to despise snails now, especially now vegetables are not like before, everyone can grow some of their own food, now everyone's vegetables at home can be exchanged for a lot of money, if the snail is harmed, the big guy must not cry to death.
"We also know that there are more snails and more harms, but now don't we pay attention to what kind of green vegetables, don't let pesticides, you can't catch them with your hands alone, you just cleaned up today, and the next day there are more and more vegetable fields, and there are more and more."
Fang Laogen said with a sad face, because his vegetable field had been plagued by snails before, so he could be said to hate snails to the core, and he was the most diligent in catching snails in the village.
"yes, yes, I can't finish catching it." The villagers nodded one after another, everyone is a farmer, the crops and fields are their roots, and now there are so many snails, they are the most anxious.
Fang Yun shook his head and said: "This is the reason why I called the big guy, everyone catches each other like this, there is no way to completely clean up these snails, today you have finished catching the vegetable field, and tomorrow other people's vegetable fields will crawl over." Even if the fields are cleared, the meadows, corners, ditches, etc., will continue to breed. ”
"What then?" Everyone was a little discouraged, Fang Yun was right, even if his field was cleaned up, there would continue to be snails crawling elsewhere.
You can't put up a sign in the field and don't allow snails to crawl over, and if it helps, you don't mind. In fact, the main thing is that pesticides can not be used now.
Otherwise, if there are a dozen pesticides, no matter how many snails there are, they will have to die out, and the result will be that the vegetables will not be sold for money, and a large number of small birds, chickens, ducks and so on will die.
"In fact, it is easy to solve, sprinkle lime, sprinkle about ten centimeters of lime belt on the ground, snails dare not cross the lime belt, if you forcibly climb through the lime belt, the snail will lose water and die after being stained with quicklime, so as to ensure that the snail will not climb to the vegetable field to harm the vegetables.
After everyone went back, they told their families that tonight we would catch snails together in the whole village, taking advantage of the characteristics of snails that come out at night and cause harm at dusk. Set up tiles, vegetable leaves, leaves, weeds, or bunched branches in or around the field, and snails often hide in them during the day, and when the time comes, they will be served in a pot. ”
Fang Yun smiled and said loudly, last night he specially inquired about how to trap snails, so today he specially called everyone to a meeting, the whole village went out together, set up a few more trapping points, and in a few days, the number of snails has definitely dropped.
"This method is good, so you don't have to worry about it now."
The villagers were overjoyed, it was not that they couldn't come up with this idea, but they couldn't get everyone to go out together, and it would be different if the village held a meeting to decide, even if they wanted to be lazy, they would not dare to offend the public.
The vigorous snail trapping operation was launched, and some tourists also felt very fresh, followed the villagers to set up dens, and the village at night was unusually quiet, and everyone was busy working at the head and end of the village with flashlights.
The happiest are those little guys, all of them are so energetic that they run around, and they are shouting for the competition to see who makes more snails.
Fang Yun was not idle, speaking of which, there were more snails in the valley, and it had become a hard-hit area. However, the valley cannot be used as a nest to trap snails, the grass is too lush, the highest has grown to more than a meter long, and the snail can not bask in the sun if it shrinks down casually, which is an ideal habitat.
There is no way, you can only catch it with your hands, but the little ones have fun, and they regard catching snails as a good game, and they are excited about who catches the most.
I don't know what's going on, the magical big rooster who has never crossed the small bridge before, today suddenly crossed the small bridge with a flock of chickens and ducks in a majestic manner, and went straight to the grassland, a group of chickens and ducks screamed excitedly and dispersed, and a snail fell into the stomach as soon as the mouth stretched out and pecked.
"I'm so stupid, really. Why do you forget that chickens and ducks love to eat snails and grasshoppers? Seeing this scene, Fang Yun could only smile bitterly, let this group of chickens and ducks come here to forage for food every day, no matter how many snails and grasshoppers and so on, it is not enough for them to eat.
Chickens eat while eating and pulling, can eat more than 100 grasshoppers a day, and grow faster and healthier than the chickens fed feed, not only chickens and ducks love to eat snails, birds also like, if so many water birds in the reservoir are summoned, half a day can eat up the valley snail grasshoppers.
"Dad, don't worry, Niuniu will definitely call all the water birds." The little chubby girl proudly accepted Fang Yun's arduous task, and rode a white horse straight to the reservoir.
The little fat girl got it right away, and the overwhelming flock of waterfowl occupied the entire valley with black pressure, and the effect was very good, but while eliminating the pests in the valley, she left souvenirs all over the ground - guano.
After rinsing the stream several times, and finally rinsing all the bird droppings, Fang Yun shouted miscalculated, he knew that it would be good to wash the snails away directly with water.
"How much!" Fang Yun was taken aback, the snails in front of him were piled up into a small mountain, these were all snails that everyone had caught from the nest set up last night early in the morning, it was amazing to catch so many in one night.
The big guys are very happy, it's terrible to think about, there are so many snails, if the whole village doesn't go out to trap them, and then let them breed, it will become inevitable that the snail will become a disaster.
The tourists were amazed and took out their cameras to take pictures, but the situation that everyone was worried about did not appear, and the tourists not only did not have a bad impression of the village because of so many snails, but they liked it more, at least, there was no indiscriminate use of pesticides here, and the ecology was well maintained.
A middle-aged tourist suddenly said, "Do you sell these snails?" ”
Selling snails? The villagers are dumbfounded, and someone buys these things? (To be continued......)
