Chapter 0236: The Plague of Rice Field Insects

"Oh my God, that's okay?"

Dad and the four of them were shocked, Xu Xiaoyu actually threw stones with his bare hands and killed an adult rabbit running in the process of driving...... His accurate head, his strength, is inevitably too perverted, incredible.

Including the family members, they all knew that Xu Xiaoyu had a martial arts gym and handed it over to Jim and Thompson to take care of, but they didn't know how deep Xu Xiaoyu's skills were, so they were all scared.

"Xu, how could you be so powerful, how did you do it?"

George asked eagerly, both he and Brookzoro were boxing fans.

"Diligence produces wisdom and hard work produces real skills, of course, through hard work."

Xu Xiaoyu smiled slightly, and said perfunctory, he picked up the rabbit in the past and weighed it, it was not very fat, but it was still relatively strong, enough to make a big bowl of vegetables. It's just that there are a lot of mouths in the ranch now, and a rabbit is not enough to eat.

It seems that we will have to hunt a few more, and since there is a rabbit in the pasture, there must be others, and possibly other small beasts.

Then, Xu Xiaoyu returned to the villa, rode a horse, brought a bow, and joined his father for a hunt.

Facts have proved that Xu Xiaoyu's speculation is correct, there is indeed more than one rabbit in the pasture, and there is not only one rabbit as an animal.

After running several laps around the original more than 500 acres of land in the Tianshan Mountains, a total of five rabbits were hit, and two were slipped.

In addition, marmots, squirrels, foxes, and deer were also found. More than a dozen species of birds have also been found near and on the lake's surface.

Meantime. What gave Xu Xiaoyu a headache was that the number of rats had obviously increased exponentially, and there were small piles of newly dug soil in many places, which were obviously burrows made by rats. It reminded him of the rat plague at Old John's Golden Mountain Ranch.

"George, did you find any rat holes in the vegetable patch?"

After riding, Xu Xiaoyu asked.

"Yes, but we plugged all the holes." George debriefed.

"It's not okay to block it, the vegetables are so delicious, they will do everything they can to burrow into the ground." Xu Xiaoyu frowned. He said, "Let's do a rodent eradication operation." ”

Next. He went back to the Jinshan Ranch, took the cages and wire sleeves, and began to exterminate the rats.

Both methods are still simple and efficient. In George's exclamations. One rat by one was trapped. Kill. It didn't take a few days. In the pasture, there were few rats.

There are fewer rats, but there are more and more other animals. Even in the small lake, you can often see flocks of waterbirds playing in the water, which is delightful. Occasionally, you can walk around the lake and pick up nests of birds' eggs.

Nini and Tsai often rode the taller and stronger Wangcai to get rich, came to the lake to try their luck, and even called Dajin out, and rode it into the lake to chase the water birds, so that they flew and croaked.

Everything in the ranch is developing in the direction of goodness.

Soon, though, the annoying thing came again.

The seedlings in the more than 100 acres of paddy fields have grown to knee-deep, and the seedlings are exceptionally green, as if they can drip green juice out with a pinch.

It is a sea of green, with the wind blowing, the blue waves rippling, and the fragrance of rice flowers permeating the air.

This fragrance is intoxicating, and my parents, grandmothers, and George often come to the fields for a walk, admiring the wonderful and unique scenery of the rice fields, and breathing the air rich in the fragrance of rice flowers up close.

This incense also makes the insects crazy.

When the seedlings are first planted, only a small number of insects are attracted. As the seedlings grow, more and more insects are attracted to them. Until now, they are still flying from all directions, and their numbers have increased exponentially.

Among these insects, there are harmless insects such as dragonflies, but most of them are pests.

"Xu, there are too many insects in the field, we have to take some measures, otherwise the seedlings will all be ruined by them."

The situation in the paddy fields is getting worse and worse, and the ranch workers are anxious, they don't want the fruits of their hard work to be ruined by insects.

"Don't worry, the bugs won't get their way."

Xu Xiaoyu smiled slightly, looking like he was in his chest. He and his parents, mothers and grandmothers naturally noticed the problem of insects in the paddy fields, but they were not in a hurry, like picking up those mice, and there was a wonderful way to clean them up...... And the reason why this wonderful method was not used early was because I wanted to wait for more insects and clean it up at one time, otherwise it would be difficult to prepare.

"Xu, did you already have a solution?" The workers asked with interest.

"Of course." Xu Xiaoyu nodded with a smile, took out a pen and paper, wrote out a shopping list, and handed it to George.

"Light bulbs? Wire? Big basin? What is it for? George looked at the three things on the list, surprised.

"Xu, do you mean, use these things to get rid of pests?" Others were also puzzled.

"When you use it, you'll know the way." Xu Xiaoyu smiled vaguely, sold a pass, and patted George's shoulder: "Go George." ”

"It's good." George drove the pickup truck and went to town.

Xu Xiaoyu was not idle, driving a light truck to a poultry breeding factory, and the purpose of his visit here was to buy poultry seedlings - chickens, ducks, and geese.

In fact, Xu Xiaoyu is not interested in raising these poultry, it is the old mother and grandmother who said that they want to raise it, and the pasture is wide, since they want to raise it, then raise it. Besides, the chickens, ducks and geese that are free-range still taste very good, and they have to fight with game.

The chickens and ducks were bought for two thousand, and the ducks and geese were each bought for two hundred.

After returning to the ranch, George had already bought good things and returned.

With the help of everyone, Xu Xiaoyu cleared these fluffy little guys into a simple shed that had been set up, first familiarized them with the atmosphere of the ranch, familiar with their nests, and then let them run around the ranch.

Next, Xu Xiaoyu and his father took George and the nine of them and began to fiddle with wires, light bulbs and basins.

Pull the wire onto the path that is specially divided into a hill and a hill in the paddy field, build a small support, connect the light bulb, and then place the large basin under the light bulb, and pour half a basin of water into the basin.

This is the insecticide device, and every once in a while, one is attached.

George, the nine local natives, looked at it and were puzzled, they really couldn't understand, how could this thing be exterminated? Is it used to kill with electricity? It's, they don't believe it.

But at night, as soon as the light bulbs were closed, they saw countless insects flying out of the paddy fields, spreading their wings, flying towards the translucent light bulbs, and then, tirelessly flying around the light bulbs, they immediately knew that this was the case......
