Chapter 135 Chores That Must Be Handled

Coax Tia to sleep.

Li Sheng watched her figure disappear on the stairs, and the smile on his face gradually faded.He reached out to open the cigarette case, and he took out half of a cigarette, but he put it back.He crumpled up the cigarette case and even the cigarettes in it and threw it into the trash can.

Early the next morning, Li Sheng didn't send Tia to school, he asked one of the security guards who could fly a helicopter to send it.He needs to clean up all the sweet potatoes in the field this morning.

When he arrived, he found that some sweet potatoes had been gnawed, and the peculiar smell of peccaries was still left in the field.Has peccary come here?It's too arrogant.This land is also twenty kilometers away from the nearest forest.How did those guys get here?
But there are hills not far away, so he can only give up now.Not far away is a large bamboo forest that has already grown. If Xizhu ran into it, he would not be able to find it for a while.

He could only endure the faint smell of scallops, and picked up the sweet potatoes that were still intact.After a busy morning, I finally finished packing up all the sweet potatoes.He drove the tractor to move the sweet potatoes back to the warehouse.Then he changed his clothes, went to school to pick up Tia, and asked Chaxi to have dinner at home.

After eating, let the two children take a nap, and then drive the plane to send them to school.This time he didn't go back directly, but flew to the Ji Luoluo tribe in a plane.

Someone was working on the arable land he allocated to the Ji Luoluo tribe.

After his plane landed, a young man ran over.It was Cheng Dong.He is still Zhang Feng's assistant, but Li Sheng asked him to teach the Jiluoluo people to farm.The Jiluoluo people in the past could only grow cassava, and the cultivation method was very backward. They would only dig a hole, bury the cassava stalks, and wait for the harvest next year.

That must not work.The cassava planted in that way may only have two or three cassava roots.Moreover, those cassava contains certain toxicity, so it is more troublesome to eat.

The current Jiluoluo people also grow cassava, but the sweet cassava that Li Sheng brought back from the outside is planted. It has been detoxified and domesticated. Even if it is steamed and eaten directly, there is no need to worry about poisoning.

In addition to cassava, the Jilolo grow sweet potatoes and maize.These are relatively easy to grow. If it is wheat and rice, they will not be able to teach them in a while.

Li Sheng saw that one-fifth of the place surrounded by wooden railings had been reclaimed, and the rest was used by Ji Luoluo to raise chickens.He also saw pigs grazing inside.Those pigs mainly eat weeds.He looked like a wild boar.

Cheng Dong ran over: "Boss, are you here?"

"Why are you here?" Li Sheng really did not expect to see Cheng Dong here.

Cheng Dong said with a smile: "I think the farm has harvested, and it should be almost the same here. They haven't grown sweet potatoes and corn before, so I'll take a look."

Li Sheng is very satisfied with his explanation: "I think they are harvesting now, how is the yield?"

"The yield of sweet potatoes is quite good. I harvested about ten acres yesterday, and the yield per mu is estimated to be more than [-] catties. They will definitely not be able to finish eating such sweet potatoes in a short time. I wonder if I should teach them to slice sweet potatoes and dry them in the sun. That It can be stored for a longer period of time. It can be made into dried sweet potatoes."

Li Sheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Not bad, thoughtful. But can you communicate with them?"

"Hey, no. I can only signal them to watch us do it. They are not stupid, they will understand soon after watching us do it."

Li Sheng saw that some workers were working with the Jiluoluo people.He also saw the black spots on Cheng Dong's hands, and knew that they were not just talking.

He wants to like such workers.Before the boss thought of it, they had already started to do it.That's great.

He looked at the corn field next to the sweet potato and asked, "How is the yield of the corn?"

"Boss, I have to say that the green manure you made is very fertile. Most of these corns can bear two corn cobs per plant, and they are very full. I think the yield of the two corns will definitely be unexpected. Not only here, but also the ones on our farm. It is said that the yield is more than double that of the ones we planted in our hometown."

Li Sheng didn't expect the green manure to be so effective.However, there is not a lot of corn grown on the farm, and it is mainly intended to be used as feed for pigs.Now that the output is high, we can just raise more pigs.And corn cobs can also be used as a medium for mushrooms.

The Jiluoluo people have an area of ​​[-] mu of land, which was specially set aside by Li Sheng for them.And there will only be so many in the future.After teaching them how to grow new varieties of food, he doesn't plan to give more support.For example, mechanization and the like are impossible.Give them some cattle at most.If they want to use mechanization, they need to pay for it themselves and learn it themselves.

He is not stingy, but if a nation is domesticated, it will be difficult for it to continue to develop.He hopes that the Jiluoluo tribe can have its own development momentum.If their cultivation level is sufficient, 1 mu of arable land is enough for them to feed more than 1 people.And they want to exceed [-] people, and it may take decades.

After several decades, they will not be able to make a living other than agriculture, and Li Sheng will have no way to help them any more.

He greeted Taklolo and the others who were busy with work, but did not bother them.He walked around the land, and Cheng Dong followed behind.

He saw cracks in the unopened sweet potato fields.I know that the yield of sweet potatoes in these ridges is really good.The sweet potatoes grown here are different from the ones he grows himself. The main focus here is on yield, while his main focus is on taste and nutrition.Therefore, many of the sweet potatoes here can grow to a diameter of more than ten centimeters, and one two catties is not a problem.

He walked to the ridge where the cassava was grown.If cassava is planted on a hillside, there is no need for ridges, but here is flat land, which is easy to accumulate water. If there are ridges, the survival rate of cassava is higher, and the crushed soil can also make cassava grow larger. .

The growth period of cassava is long, and the yield is not too high.But in South America, cassava means as much as maize does in Central America.All the Indians in South America probably survived by eating cassava.Eating cassava is already a habit of the local indigenous people, so Li Sheng specially got a kind of sweet potato for them to plant.

Cheng Dong saw that he seemed to be concerned about cassava, and said: "Boss, the yield of this cassava should be very good. We have sampled a few roots, and on average, one can grow seven or eight roots. One mu of land can grow six About [-] trees. One mu of land can harvest more than [-] catties. Seeing this, the Jiluoluo people almost held a bonfire party during the day to celebrate."

Li Sheng laughed at what he said, and said, "They may not be able to eat all the cassava in a short time. You can teach them to slice and dry it. These cassavas are not poisonous, and they can be ground into powder for them after drying." , are more convenient to store and eat.”

"Yes, boss. I'll teach them how to do it."

Li Sheng nodded, turned around and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Do it well."

He said he stayed with Cheng Dong, who was a little bit happy, but also a little bit baffled.I went to talk to Tuclolo again, and then flew to the management area.

Before reaching Zhang Feng's office, he saw Babur coming out of Anthony's office.

"Hey, Lee. How are you? I haven't seen you for a week." Babur took his men to train in the forest last week.

Li Sheng hugged him and said, "I'm afraid it's fine. It seems that you are fine too, and you haven't met a big cat."

"Big cats are also afraid of us." Babur smiled slightly, "Are you looking for Zhang?"

"Yes, I have something to talk to him about."

"Well, I also have something to tell you."

"what's up?"

Babur looked around and found no one else, so he said: "I just received the news that the Bruno family had some changes a while ago, and many backbones died. Papallo has completely controlled the Bruno family. And getting out of the [drug] trade.”

Li Sheng's eyes lit up, and he said with a chuckle, "This is good news, isn't it? Is there anything else?"

"Pino Bruno's death, the police have closed the case with gang vendetta."

"This is also good news!"

Let the Withered Leaf Viper take the shot, and then kill the Withered Leaf Viper.It's not just to eradicate the hidden danger of the dead leaf viper, it also has the element of killing people.Otherwise, he wouldn't let Li Gang and Clarkson kill the contact who knew they had found Dead Leaf Viper.

Now that the matter has come to a conclusion, apart from the six people who acted, the only person who knows is the betrayer Papallo, and Li Sheng believes that he will not tell this matter.Otherwise, he might not be able to save his life.

"Thank you for the good news." Li Sheng said with a smile. "Are you here?"

"The bullets are almost used up. I'll ask Anthony to buy some back. I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."

Li Sheng nodded and said, "Goodbye."

He was about to go to Zhang Feng's office, but the door of Anthony's office opened. Feng Xiaoting called him at the door: "Mr. Li, please come here."

The whole farm, that's how he was called Li Sheng.But Li Sheng doesn't ask everyone to call him boss.Hearing this, he approached and asked, "What do you need from me?"

"Yes. I plan to buy a batch of small equipment and reagents for experiments. Anthony disagrees." As soon as Li Sheng heard this, he knew that he was going to spend a lot of money again this time.

He was a little dissatisfied with this, but he didn't show it, and asked, "Oh, what do you want to buy?"

"Some special micropipettes, some high-standard DNA analysis experimental reagents. My test requirements are relatively high, and the precision of the pipettes I bought before is not high enough, and the reagents are not very suitable."

Li Sheng didn't understand these things, so he walked into Anthony's office with him.

Anthony was already standing, saw him and said, "Li, take a look at Feng's purchase list."

Li Sheng couldn't even look at it, he just glanced at the above content and then settled the realization on the total purchase amount, which was 130 million US dollars.

If it's just a small device, these things should be too expensive.

He looked at Feng Xiaoting who was about to speak, but the other party immediately said: "Mr. Li, look at the amount first. The purchase of small equipment is not very high. The most important part of this money is to purchase these reagents. The standard reagents are only It can only be prepared by Harvard University in the United States, so the price is quite high. I want to compare the quantity, but that is because I have a lot of comparison groups in the test.” He emphasized. "The functional test of the gene segment requires a lot of experimental comparisons to draw conclusions. Therefore, I need a lot of reagents."

Hearing what he said, Li Sheng still felt it was a bit exaggerated.But he felt he could agree one last time.He signed it, handed it to Anthony, and said, "Just follow this purchase order and purchase the items on it as soon as possible."
