Chapter 304: Pest outbreak!
"Three hundred and eight."

Sun Jianping remembers it clearly.

"Repay three hundred and eighty. It's not like I haven't seen their thousand-acre wheat field before. It's at most three hundred and sixty." Lao Cao slowly shaved off the oil from the pot of his pipe. "This is an extra twenty kilograms." They have to dig it out of the mouths of the old commune members, and when the Chinese New Year comes, those women will have to carry their pockets everywhere to borrow bread and dumplings."

"Old Yu Ye, he must be fifty this year, why are we still fighting for the first place?"

"Look at you, you are not as long-term as others think. If you strive for the upper hand, you will be promoted to work in the commune in a few years. Then you will be a cadre, and you will receive a salary and eat royal food. When the time comes, what will happen to the team to recruit workers, recruit workers, peasants and soldiers, and recruit soldiers? , the quota is reserved for their own nephews and nephews from the old Yu family..."

Lao Cao patted Zhang Ziyi on the head and said, "You are not as smart as Lao Yu!"

"They became the advanced members, and the unlucky ones are the old members."

"That's the truth." Lao Cao looked at the continuous rice fields on both sides of the road and arrived at Nahe Farm so quickly.

"Stop, Jianping, let's see how their rice is doing."

Ever since he got the forty rice fields, Lao Cao has regarded the land as a treasure, thinking about it wherever he goes.

Sun Jianping tightened the reins, and everyone jumped out of the car, took off their shoes, rolled up their trouser legs, and got off the rice field.

The Nahe Farm grows rice varieties with low yields. It is mid-summer in August, and the rice has only grown above the waist, but it has already begun to bloom and produce ears.

"They planted it too early, and the ears have already worn out. Our rice is 13 or 4 days behind others..."

"I'm afraid it will frost early this year..."

The four people picked off an ear of rice, looked at it carefully, and started talking about it.

"Let's go back!"

After some investigation by several people, they found that the rice cultivation level in Nahe Farm was only average. The number of tillers was not as good as that of Ermajia, and the plants were also much less thick.

As for this output...

The yield of the Daohuaxiang variety itself is not as good as that of ordinary japonica rice. However, this rice is specially supplied to leaders. The yield is only secondary, the key is quality!
"Let's go home and see our rice fields!"

Lao Cao wiped off the mud on his feet, picked up his whip, cracked it, and shouted with great momentum!

You have rice, and so do we!

Looks better than yours!

The carriage rolled over the alkali soil, and the water stored in the big pit had sunk a lot. The rice fields were full of green and vitality. When the wind blew, it looked like the undulating green sea, which looked quite spectacular.

"Look at how well our rice is growing!" Lao Cao stood in the rice field quite proudly, while small fish and shrimps swam over his feet, tickling them.

The height of the rice was already over his waist, with thick roots and many tillers. He squatted down and pinched the rice stalk, and there was a big handful!

really not bad!
The only thing I'm looking forward to now is that there will be frost later this year!
"Okay, come out quickly, don't keep fussing inside!" Zhang Ziyi urged with a smile.

Lao Cao reluctantly walked out of the rice field and looked at the brick kiln in the distance. "We still have some saline-alkali land that has not been cultivated. Next year, we will think of a way to plant it, and then plant the saline-alkali land in it." Get it out, this is called comprehensive management!"

Sun Jianping stared, the old man's radio was not for nothing!

Look at their progress...

Everyone knows what comprehensive management is!

Sun Jianping squatted down and carefully inspected the rice field. Suddenly he saw a small squirming flying insect in the rice leaves!
His mind buzzed!
This is……

Rice borer!

It must have flown from the south!
He immediately caught the flying insects and showed them to Lao Cao. Lao Cao's face suddenly turned pale!
This rice field is his greatest hope! It used to grow well, but now it has insects!
"What's wrong with this? Jianping, hurry up and think of a move. By the way, didn't you say your second uncle and the others are coming? When will they come? Come on, show us quickly. This thing is awesome. Our harvest in a year But it’s ruined!”

"Uncle, don't be anxious, don't be anxious!"

Sun Jianping squatted down and took a closer look. Fortunately, they were planting late, and the rice borers were still in moth state and had not mated or laid eggs. So...

"I have an idea!"

"Tell me what you're going to do!"

"I read in agricultural books about using lights to catch pests in rice fields. I think we can try it." Sun Jianping calmed down. Fortunately, there are not too many bugs now and the harm is not serious. Once these rice borers get in, If they enter the rice stalks and lay eggs, this year's rice fields will be really ruined!

"Then fix it quickly!"

Lao Cao was so anxious that he jumped up and down!
Sun Jianping cut off a few pieces of plastic sheeting leftover from the greenhouse during spring breeding, and tied some wires into a circle. He put three bamboo poles underneath to stand up like a tall frame.

Li Xiuzhi held a needle and thread in hand and helped him sew the plastic cloth on the wire ring to form a small shallow plate-shaped "pot", which made everyone wonder!
What is this?

"The plastic sheet itself can reflect light. Put a little water inside and put it outside. When it gets dark, the bugs will look for places with light. When the plastic sheet reflects the light of the moon and stars, it will attract the bugs..."

"real or fake?"

After reading Sun Jianping's "invention", everyone was scratching their heads. Can this thing deceive insects? ,

That insect's brain probably doesn't work very well either.

"Can you try it?"

With a wave of his hand, Lao Cao asked his daughter-in-law to make several more, move them to the rice fields, insert them on the ridges of the fields, and then scoop up some water and put them in.

To be honest, can this thing work...

Lao Cao also has a soul in his heart!

This is obviously taking a bug for a fool...

"Okay, let's see in the morning!" Sun Jianping smiled mysteriously. Although these are all taught in the book, they must be the product of many previous practices, and the results must be there!
The moonlight was quiet. After placing the insect-catching device, Lao Cao no longer felt sleepy. Instead, he sat on the ridge of the field, took out the treasured cigarette bag that Wang Zhongping gave him as compensation, and started smoking.

Sun Jianping sat next to him, holding his knees with his hands, listening to the croaking of toads in the fields and the tireless playing of crickets, and occasionally the cooing of night owls, forming a beautiful night chorus.

He thought of Miss Qian who ran into the rice fields to catch toads, and couldn't help but secretly laugh. This girl was so naughty. The daughter of a big capitalist was not afraid of little toads, but stretched out her hands to catch them!
Really...

When he thought of Qian Huijun, he thought of the second girl, her sister Wang Yumei, and then thought of the beauties in the New Year paintings he saw during the New Year in the city...

To be honest, Qian Huijun becomes more and more beautiful as she grows older, her big eyes are so watery that she seems to be able to talk...

Cough!

Lao Cao choked on the cigarette and couldn't help coughing. Sun Jianping hurriedly patted his back and said, "Uncle, you are so anxious about smoking!"

"Get up and see if this thing works!"

The old man stood up and walked to the simple insect trap. Under the moonlight, he could vaguely see that the water was filled with a thick layer of various flying insects, which were struggling desperately in the water. Climb out.

The old man chuckled, but he didn't expect it to actually work!
"If you want me to tell you, just make a few more. Anyway, there are no matching materials..."

The old man fished out all the nasty bugs and crushed them to death under his feet. The nasty bugs actually dared to eat my old man’s rice!

hateful!
