Article 92 The second method of exterminating locusts
readx;?ā Does winter wheat also protect against locusts? ā
This time, Zhu Changyuan was really confused by the second monk, saying that the good locusts love to eat wheat the most, okay, isn't winter wheat wheat?
Looking at Zhu Changyuan's expression, Professor Gu smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "I'm sorry, there are some problems with my statement just now, winter wheat actually has no function to prevent locust plagues. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info [latest chapter reading]"
"It's just that the whole growing season of winter wheat is just right to avoid the locust season." As Professor Gu spoke, he took a sip of water, cleared his throat and continued: "There are two seasons of locusts, summer locusts and autumn locusts, both of which are one kind, and his eggs must hatch for more than 20 days in a hot weather of 25 degrees before they can become larvae. As for the winter wheat, the autumn locusts have been extinguished when they are planted, and by the time they are harvested, the summer locusts of the second year have just hatched, and they will not cause much harm. ā
"So, winter wheat is not afraid of locust plagues, and here's why!"
I'll go!
I see.
It is no wonder that in ancient times, when the locust plague arrived, there was no harvest, it turned out to be this reason.
Zhu Changyuan smiled, laughed thoroughly, Nima Shaanxi can just grow winter wheat, and with the fertilizer and seeds that he has transported in the past, he is even less afraid of locusts.
For Mao, it is very simple, as long as the entire Weihe Plain is occupied, it is enough to plant only one season of winter wheat a year for Shaanxi's own use, and he also ran over to control the locust plague, and his brain is rusty.
However, having said that, if you succeed in appeasing Shaanxi and can do something for the local people, you can also consider leading the people of Shaanxi to prevent disasters.
Professor Gu ignored Zhu Changyuan's YY, and continued: "There is another method of biological control, called microbial treatment, which is to rely on microbial parasitic infection, so that all locusts in a certain area carry something similar to a virus. Generally, it takes two years to make a difference, and it takes three to four years to completely cure. ā
This method is good.
Although the cycle is a little longer, it can be done once and for all.
Zhu Changyuan hurriedly asked, "Professor Gu, what is this microbial management method?" ā
Professor Gu said: "Artificial infection. Quite simply, when the locusts multiply, spray this thing on the ground with a sprayer, and it will naturally become infected, and this microorganism can also infect each other among locusts. At the same time, it can also be transmitted to the eggs, so even the offspring of these locusts can also be infected, and their birth rate will be greatly reduced, so that the locust plague can be controlled, but it is a little time-consuming. ā
"Oh!" Zhu Changyuan nodded and said, "This is good, this is good, although it is invalid for a short time." But the governance is thorough, I plan to use this method, and I have to ask Professor Gu where to buy this kind of thing? ā
"Our college has a laboratory, and we have done related experiments before, but the best quality of this thing is the Academy of Agricultural Sciences of Shandong University, if you need it, I can contact you some, I don't know how much land you have on hand?"
How much land?
How can you say that the whole Shaanxi also has one million square kilometers, which is an astronomical amount in terms of mu, but Zhu Changyuan can't manage that much. For now, let's stabilize the Guanzhong Plain first, and then talk about it, if there is more, Lao Tzu will not have so much money.
However, even the Guanzhong Plain is not a lot.
Secretly opened the system map, and roughly calculated, that is, the half of the plain east of Chang'an also has nearly 10 million acres of land.
"That. I don't know if this thing is expensive, if it's not expensive, give me a 10 million mu first! Zhu Changyuan said cautiously.
This thing, too little, the effect is not obvious, if you can come more at one time, it will be good.
I just don't know if it's expensive?
"What?" Professor Gu jumped up at that time. Pointing at Zhu Changyuan, he said, "You have so many places in Africa? ā
Surprised, the voice was quite loud.
Zhu Changyuan smiled bitterly, quickly thought about it, and finally spent three seconds thinking of a lie, and said: "That's not it, the little nephew's rented land is only hundreds of thousands of acres, but this thing needs to be jointly defended, and it is useless to prevent my piece of land, I wonder if I can give him the entire country's cultivated land to govern, and it will be easy to solve my worries." ā
"Huh!"
At this moment, even Professor Gu gave a thumbs up and said, "It's not easy, young man, it's rare that you still have this idea, good, good, good!" I'll call you and ask, you wait. ā
As he spoke, he quickly walked to the study, and then his face was a little gloomy, he looked at Zhu Changyuan and shook his head, and said: "They have done some in Xinjiang before, and they have calculated that it is almost one yuan per mu, ten million mu of land, that is, 10 million yuan, originally they had a plane to spray, but in Africa, it will not work, they can only sell it to you, the price can be a little preferential, but it is not much." ā
The reason why Professor Gu's face was gloomy was because the other party's asking price far exceeded his expectations, 10 million, too much, and he didn't believe that the young man in front of him who looked so young in the early stage of entrepreneurship could take it.
In addition, it will cost to rent an airplane to spray in the future.
For the sake of hundreds of thousands of acres of land, I can only say two words: it's not worth it!
However, to his surprise, Zhu Changyuan immediately slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, no problem, since they can't go to Africa to help me spray, I'll add money to buy ten of their small planes for spraying." ā
Ten million! And ten more small planes can be bought?
Professor Gu couldn't help but re-examine the young man in front of him.
It seems that if it weren't for the children of a family, it should be a big businessman who was hugely rich, and he was able to take out so much money at once without even blinking an eyelid, which shows the power behind him.
In this way, in the future, I will carefully tell Xiaotong not to get too close to this young talent, let alone offend him.
Professor Gu's attitude can be said to change three times a day, but the only thing that remains the same is that he has always respected and praised Zhu Changyuan.
"Okay, I'll help you contact the matter over there, and I won't be involved in the specific face-to-face interview."
Professor Gu probably thinks that it is not good for him to participate in this kind of thing.
Zhu Changyuan nodded, and didn't want to make trouble for Lao Gu anymore, pointed to Liu Guang beside him, and said: "This is my brother, I'm afraid there will be other troubles in the future, so he will negotiate with Shandong University on my behalf." ā
"That's good." Professor Gu sat down again and said, "The effect of microbial treatment is slow, and you can use the methods I told you just now, and it is estimated that the effect will be better." ā
"Also, locusts are also insects, insects are phototaxis, and lighting a bonfire at the head of the field at night can also kill some locusts, but this method is not very efficient."
"In addition, I just said that there are two methods, one is ecological management, one is biological treatment, and the third is called pesticide chemical treatment."
"However, this pesticide chemical treatment pollutes the environment too much, and I don't recommend you to use it, so I won't say more."
As a modern person, neither Professor Gu nor Zhu Changyuan is willing to transform or develop a place at the expense of the environment.
Therefore, Professor Gu was reluctant to say, and Zhu Changyuan did not force it, after all, even if only winter wheat could avoid locust planting, it would be enough for him to solve the Shaanxi problem 108,000 times.
Although the problem has not been solved, there is already a way to solve it, and Zhu Changyuan is naturally very happy.
"Thank you Uncle Gu, thank you so much, I remember your words, if there is news from Shandong University, please contact Liu Guang at that time, I often go to Africa, and I may not have time to come then."
"Don't worry, it's not that difficult!" Professor Gu smiled and made a package ticket.
Zhu Changyuan said: "That's good, Uncle Gu, if you can really cure my locust plague this time, I will invite you to a big meal when you go back, and you don't refuse when the time comes." ā
"Okay!"
Professor Gu also readily agreed.
Professor Gu has done himself a great favor, but for himself, it is just a matter of using his mouth, Zhu Changyuan wants to take some money to thank him, but he is afraid that he will think he is cheesy.
Then forget it, when Gu Xiaotong gets married, just give a valuable gift, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation in disguise, so that you can thank others for their kindness.
Thinking so, Zhu Changyuan said goodbye to Professor Gu with a smile, and before he turned around, he found that the door of the house was opened from the outside, and then Gu Xiaotong came in with an angry face.
Of course, there is also a Jiang Xun who is the same as a pluton, with a bitter face.
"What's wrong?" Professor Gu asked.
"I'm." Gu Xiaotong looked up, and when he saw Zhu Changyuan and Liu Guang, his eyes lit up, he said hello, and then complained: "I went to take a wedding photo, I was tired of running and broke my leg, I just wanted to find a better clothes, is it so difficult?" ā
"Nice clothes?" Professor Gu looked at Jiang Xun suspiciously.
Jiang Xun spread his hands helplessly and said: "Xiaotong wanted to shoot a few ancient costumes, but unfortunately she couldn't find them, and she was not satisfied with two of them, she was too ugly." ā
"What do you mean I'm ugly?" Gu Xiaotong ate like gunpowder, and shouted at Jiang Xun: "Is it okay to die if you are ugly, that is also called ancient costumes, I will go, don't you wear any singing?" ā
"Don't make a noise!" Professor Gu interrupted his daughter's words and said, "How did you talk to Jiang Xun, and there are still guests?" If you can't find a store, you can find two more, you can always find it, or Dad will accompany you to see it in the afternoon. ā
originally wanted to quarrel with her daughter, but unfortunately, this was her great joy, and Professor Gu's words turned into comfort again.
"I looked for it, but my legs were broken, but I didn't find it." Miss Gu Xiaotong's temper passed after a while, and said, "Forget it, I won't shoot if I don't have ancient costumes." ā
Jiang Xun looked sorry for his future wife, but he had no choice but to do this.
Zhu Changyuan next to him smiled slightly, ancient costumes, he has a lot, whether it is men's or women's clothing in his system, even if it is the official uniform of the Ming Empire, he has a lot of it. (To be continued.) )
