Chapter 91: The First Law of Exterminating Locusts
With money in your pocket, you don't have to panic!
It's just another thing, if you buy a lot of rice and grain every day, it will also attract the attention of the state after a long time, just kidding, usually the rice sales in Nandu for a month are about the same range, and suddenly it suddenly doubled or even tripled.
When the time comes, the state will definitely investigate. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Therefore, although these rice are not good, they really cannot be ordered from the nearest supermarket, and Liu Guang must be asked to collect them in the nearest countryside, of course, it is also possible to buy some of them in the city, as long as it is not too excessive, the state will not necessarily pay attention to this aspect.
As for what method to use to collect in the countryside, it is none of Zhu Changyuan's business, these are all handed over to Liu Guang and those people in his father's company to deal with, anyway, now there is a whole department in the company that is responsible for purchasing goods in modern society for him to transport to the parallel world.
The purchase of grain has been arranged, and it is considered to be over, but there is still a more important thing to be done as soon as possible.
Picked up the phone and called Gu Xiaotong, the daughter of Professor Gu of Agricultural University.
"Hey, beauty, hello! Who am I? Guess what, that's smart. ”
Zhu Changyuan smiled, and then asked, "Is Professor Gu at home?" I have something to ask him about farming! , at home, okay, I'll be over right away, goodbye! ”
hung up the phone, looked at Liu Guang, and said, "Don't be happy, you are my driver at home, hurry up, go, Agricultural University, find Professor Gu." ”
Liu Guang is not sloppy, recently his brother-in-law Tian Bin has helped him a lot after entering Nandu Road and Bridge, and the burden on his body is naturally a lot easier, not only his complexion is much better, but his work is also more relaxed.
However, although it is free, it cannot be cautious.
The two walked downstairs, drove Liu Guang's Q5, and walked all the way towards the western suburbs of Nandu City. Twenty minutes away, to the outskirts, saw the campus of the agricultural university.
On the opposite side of the campus is a small high-rise building. It is the family home of the teachers of the Agricultural University.
Following the route in his memory, finding Gu Xiaotong's downstairs, Zhu Changyuan opened the car door and said to Liu Guang: "The last time we came, it was more than half a year." ”
Liu Guang got out of the car. Locking the car door, he said without pain or itching: "Don't talk so much nonsense, think about buying something first, you can't go empty-handed." ”
Oops!
Zhu Changyuan patted his head, Liu Erdan didn't mention it, he really almost forgot!
China is a humane society, no matter how big or small, this gift is still indispensable, many people obviously don't care whether the gift is valuable, but there are also many people, will take these things as a standard for others to respect themselves.
"Why don't you buy some fruit?" I looked left and right. There really wasn't anything good to buy, so Zhu Changyuan had no choice but to decide to buy some fruit.
and Liu Guang, each carrying a box of fruit, knocked on the door of Gu Xiaotong's house.
Professor Gu personally came out to greet him, and after seeing Zhu Changyuan bring so many fruits, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "You are all the sons and nephews of Dean Wu, so you don't have to be polite to me." ”
Zhu Changyuan put the things down in the living room with a smile, looked left and right and didn't see Gu Xiaotong, and asked suspiciously, "What about Gu Xiaotong." Not at home! ”
When he asked this, Professor Gu was secretly taken aback, and thought that Zhu Changyuan had taken a fancy to his daughter, so he hurriedly excused himself and said, "I'm not at home." It turns out that you are here to find Xiaotong, it's really unfortunate that you accompanied her boyfriend to take wedding photos. ”
"Boyfriend? Wedding? After Zhu Changyuan heard this, he smiled, isn't he the sports student who studied in the United States, he is tall and handsome. However, last year, the goods were unlucky, and secretly didn't know the weight to compete with themselves, and he almost crushed the bones of his hand.
"yes!" Professor Gu invited the two of them to sit on the sofa and poured each of them a glass of water.
However, the scholar was polite, and still smiled at Zhu Changyuan and motioned to sit down, and then said, "I remember that you helped you do a soil sample analysis last year, how about it?" Did the land improve later? ”
Zhu Changyuan said: "Hey, congratulations first, good things are coming, don't forget to inform me when the time comes, I'll come over to ask for a glass of wine!" Then, Uncle Gu, I'm going to trouble you again this time. ”
"How?" Professor Gu asked.
"Uncle Gu, I won't tell you anything." Zhu Changyuan smiled all over his face, sat closer to Professor Gu, and then said: "Actually, I contracted more than 100,000 acres of land in Africa, and last time according to your instructions, the land was improved, and a crop was harvested, but now there are new problems, so the younger generation came to ask you for help." ”
When Professor Gu heard Zhu Changyuan say this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: It turned out that he was not looking for my daughter.
However, somehow, after thinking of this, Professor Gu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but also felt an inexplicable loss.
When people are compared, the good and the bad will naturally be distinguished.
Don't say anything else, let's just say that the young man in front of him, people run to his house again and again, all for the cause, and it is also a legitimate career, a career that suits the old man's appetite.
On the other hand, look at his future son-in-law, although the family is rich, powerful and status, compared to Zhu Changyuan, he always feels that something is missing!
Self-motivated, yes, self-motivated!
That thing knows how to eat and play all day long, but fortunately, although Jiang Xun is the son of the principal, although he is a second young master, although he gnaws at the old man and has no ability to be self-reliant, he is finally a little better to Xiaotong.
Thinking of this, Professor Gu felt a little better in his heart.
After looking at the two young people in front of him, he turned his attention to them again, and asked Zhu Changyuan, "Since the land has been improved, what else can be wrong?" ”
In Professor Gu's view, although not everyone knows how to farm, it is not a high-tech one, as long as it is done in accordance with the time method and scientific guidance, there will be no problems.
"Locusts!" Zhu Changyuan had a bitter face, looked at Professor Gu, and said: "Professor Gu, you may not know, the rest of the people in Africa are okay, but there are too many locusts, the kid has heard about how powerful the locust plague is in ancient books before, until he saw the locust plague in Africa, he didn't know what it was that was overwhelming, and he left nothing." ”
"Huh?" Professor Gu listened to Zhu Changyuan's words, frowned slightly, and at the same time couldn't help nodding, and said: "Yes, the natural environment in Africa is not as good as in Asia, let alone Europe, it is normal to have locust plagues, but it is very troublesome to control locust plagues!" ”
Since Zhu Changyuan said the question, Professor Gu naturally knew the main purpose of his coming.
"It's not my main area of research, but I'm quite familiar with it." Professor Gu thought for a while, got up and went to the study to get a notebook that looked a little old, looked at it a few times, and nodded as he looked.
After a while, he closed the notebook and said to Zhu Changyuan: "Drought locusts have been born since ancient times, in fact, locust plagues are not strange. When a major drought occurs in a certain place, the hatching rate of locust eggs becomes surprisingly high, and in dense areas, the survival rate is 100,000,000 times higher than in an ordinary year, which is a disaster for crops and vegetation. ”
"yes." Zhu Changyuan took a deep breath, his feelings were different from those of Professor Gu, Professor Gu was sorry for the crops, he had seen too many unbearable miserable situations.
"Please also ask Professor Gu to show me a clear path so that I can get through this difficulty."
Professor Gu nodded, and his praise for Zhu Changyuan in his heart was one more point.
This kind of calm and unhurried momentum, although the locust plague caused him great losses, but from the eyes of this young man did not see the slightest discouragement or loss, from his eyes, what he saw was a kind of firmness that even people who have been in society for a long time do not have.
This kind of mind is almost impossible among young people!
"Hmm." Professor Gu nodded, sorted out his thoughts a little, and said, "The occurrence of the locust plague has a great relationship with the natural environment, and it is not impossible to govern, but it is very troublesome to govern. ”
"To put it simply, there are several methods, the first method is agricultural control, on the whole, locusts are extremely harmful to most crops, but there are also some things, locusts do not eat. For example, soybeans and fruit trees, you should consider planting these things on rented land, the disadvantage is that the soybean yield is low, and the payback period of fruit trees is too long. ”
Zhu Changyuan listened to it and didn't think so, what are you kidding, how much yield can an acre of soybeans have, let alone any fruit trees, not to mention the long recovery cycle, that is, it can bear fruit immediately after planting, why do I want millions of hungry people in Shaanxi to eat apples every day without food?
!
However, it's no wonder that Professor Gu is also telling the truth!
Seeing that Zhu Changyuan shook his head slightly, Professor Gu said: "The second method can be called biological control, although locusts are difficult and easy to become disasters in drought years, they also have natural enemies. For example, frogs, various birds, chickens, ducks, these are the natural enemies of locusts, especially ducks, some people have made statistics, an adult duck, can eat up all the locusts in two acres of land. If these things are artificially raised in large quantities in locust prone areas, not only can the locust plague be controlled, but also the breeding industry can be developed, killing two birds with one stone. ”
"However, the disadvantage of this method is also obvious, that is, manpower is limited after all, and how many people can you organize to feed chickens and ducks and get rid of the locust plague!"
This point, Zhu Changyuan silently remembered in his heart, others can't organize it, he can!
At least there will be no problem in getting hundreds of thousands of people in the future.
"Also, the larvae of locusts cannot fly after hatching, but can only crawl on the ground, so feeding the ducks more is feasible. In Africa, I don't know, but if it were in the northern part of China, planting winter wheat in winter would also prevent locust plagues! ”
Nani?
Zhu Changyuan was surprised when he heard Lao Gu's assertion.
Winter wheat can prevent locust plagues, what is the theory of this Nima? (To be continued.) )
