silent farm

Chapter 16 Oriental Magic - Black Technology
Leaving aside those fanciful things, Li Sheng can probably be sure that this tribe should be an indigenous tribe that is still isolated from the world.

These aborigines didn't even have iron pots, only a stone pot three or four inches thick.The food made from those rhizomes is roasted next to the fire with stone slabs.Those all prove that the tribe has not yet entered the Iron Age, and may not even have entered the Bronze Age.

Li Sheng didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse for such a tribe to live in his territory.However, there should not be any direct contact between the two parties, which will not affect the construction of the farm.He decided to leave the tribe alone for now.

He has driven all over the lakes.At the center of them, a link with the great lake of space has been established. During this period of time, he has to balance the water pressure so that they can ensure the exchange of lake water without consuming too much space lake water.In this way, the water levels of these lakes may rise due to heavy rains, but not fall due to dry seasons.Although the lake in the space is quite big, Li Sheng does not intend to let a large amount of lake water flood into this world.In the future, he still needs to observe how much lake water will be consumed by the grass in the playground, adjust the water volume at the connection port, and finally only keep the water level from falling, and the outflow of water in the dry season will not exceed one instant per second.

Of course, he also needs to ensure that the water level of the lake is higher than the surrounding ground. Only in this way can the water pressure be maintained to replenish the surrounding groundwater.

More than a week after the grass seeds were sown, the grass seeds in the ground have sprouted and are growing rapidly.The original wasteland was bright yellow-green.The growth-promoting effect of the lake water on those grasses was stronger than he imagined.

After discovering the native tribes, he never went further into the jungle.Even if you go in, you will occasionally wander around the edge of the jungle, or take a gun into the space to kill a cow or a sheep, which is right as a hunting pastime.

Later, I was really bored, so I reclaimed a small vegetable field near the wooden house area.There are no agricultural tractors in the ranch yet, so he can only cultivate it with a hoe.After working hard for two days, he finally reclaimed more than an acre of vegetable land and planted some vegetables and fruits.In this way, there is also a reason to take vegetables out of the space in the future.

Occasionally he would think about the dozens of indigenous people.It's just that he didn't plan to continue visiting them until he had figured out how to place them.He didn't know how the natives thought of being spied on, maybe it was a very serious act of hostility to them.An inadvertent mistake might cause some unresolvable misunderstanding.At that time, Li Sheng could not communicate with the other party.

He is not afraid of those natives.If his heart is dark enough, these days are enough for him to secretly wipe out the entire tribe with a gun.He has his own bottom line.These natives are natives, and legally this is his territory.However, he is no different from the Portuguese colonists hundreds of years ago, they are all people who forcibly occupied their land.Robbing is nothing more than robbing, and killing people after robbing, it is impossible for him to pass his test no matter what.

He spent two days fishing and three days drying nets alone in the ranch, and when he was really bored, he went to the shooting range to shoot targets for one day.

Time passed day by day.The pasture in the wasteland has grown to a length of fifty centimeters, and it can grow at least three centimeters a day.And their root systems are all connected, and all pastures can already enjoy the space in the small lake.Li Sheng's workload eased again.

Of the three workers, Thomas was the first to call to say he would be back.He first called from the United States and asked if Li Sheng was at the ranch.Knowing that he was still there, he said when he planned to work on the ranch.But he needs to go to Belem first.

Hearing that he was going to Belem first, Li Sheng told him not to hurry back: "The ranch needs a batch of agricultural machinery, such as rice transplanters, harvesters, and wheat seeders and harvesters. Of course, we also need Several sets of plows."

Thomas pondered for a while on the phone and said, "Li, how much land do you plan to reclaim?"

Li Sheng hadn't really thought about how much land to reclaim before.He considered it and said, "Fifty to eighty thousand acres."

"Do you really want to reclaim so much arable land? I'm afraid it will require a lot of manpower and a lot of large tractors." Thomas said immediately. "There are not enough good large agricultural tractors in Brazil, and they are very expensive. I suggest you buy them in the United States and ship them there."

Brazil's heavy industry is not well developed, except for aircraft.This also makes other industrial products relatively expensive.

"Then we need to go through the import formalities. I don't know much about this."

Thomas smiled and said: "No, of course we don't need to handle it. In fact, the United States and Brazil have a tariff agreement, and the tariffs on machinery are very low. The United States will contact the branch here and deliver the machinery Door-to-door. Of course, you have to pay for shipping and customs duties. Even so, the price is still cheaper than buying similar equipment in Brazil.”

Li Sheng thought about it, and felt that Thomas could still be trusted.And the prices of those machines can be found online.If he was going to drink, he could just spot a man he shouldn't tolerate.So he said: "Okay. You order a batch of agricultural machinery in the United States first. I don't know how much to buy. You can buy it after consulting."

Thomas smiled and said, "Then I'm working overtime."

Li Sheng also smiled and said, "Of course, I will pay two bottles of Huaxia Baijiu as overtime pay." He smiled and said again. "When you arrive in Belem, buy some bullets. I've been using them a lot lately." Needless to say, Thomas knew the gun he used.Once you know the model of your gun, you will be able to find the right ammo.

As a result, when Thomas actually came from the United States, Barbur and Anthony also returned to Brazil with him, and they took the same plane.

After they arrived in Belem, Li Sheng brought them back with dozens of boxes of bullets by plane.They noticed changes in the land below while on the plane.On the plane, Anthony frowned and said, "Li, the three of us haven't come back for a year and a half?"

"Maybe we're flying in the wrong direction," Thomas said with a smile.

Babur just glanced at Li Sheng, as if he was thinking about something.

The plane landed.All three discovered a problem. The airport was originally more than a meter higher than the surrounding land.In fact, when the airport was built, it was only about [-] centimeters higher than the surrounding area, in order to prevent water accumulation at the airport.However, the surrounding soil was washed away later, and the land here was about one meter higher than the surrounding area.And now it seems to be back to the height when it was first built.And the soil of those grasslands has obviously changed.

"Li, I think something terrible must have happened here." Babur frowned, looked at Li Sheng and said.

It's not easy for Li Sheng to tell lies, and this change can be seen by everyone.But telling the truth is obviously not enough, so he had to say: "I can't tell the real situation. You should treat it as black technology."

"Does it mean Eastern magic?" Thomas still said with a smile. "I think this is a major discovery."

Hearing what Li Sheng said, they also knew that Li Sheng didn't intend to talk about these things.They are all Americans, and they value privacy the most. No matter how curious they were, they didn't continue to ask.And Li Ming was their boss.Li Sheng didn't want to say it, and they couldn't ask any more.

Because they had luggage and bullets, when Li Sheng drove over, he was driving a pickup truck.It can fit everyone and everything.In the car, Li Sheng told them: "The woodland in the south, except for the outermost three kilometers, should not be submerged by the river again. But let the woodland be kept. It can prevent soil erosion to some extent."

The three of them listened, and although they were a little surprised by the changes in the ranch for more than a month, they were surprised, and they didn't ask any more questions about what happened.

However, the car was also dull for a while.When the car returned to the cabin area, it was Thomas who broke the silence and said, "Li, don't tell me that you have been cultivating this land these days."

He saw a field of vegetables just sprouting.

Li Sheng will close the car door, and said with a smile: "Of course not, I also used oriental magic to transform this wasteland."

He went to the back of the car and picked up two boxes of bullets: "That's right. Do you know that there are aborigines in the jungle to the north?"

Seeing the faces of the three of them changed.Li Sheng froze for a moment, then asked, "What's the matter? Have you seen them before?"

Babur said in a deep voice: "We have looked for them, but we couldn't find them. Have you met them?"

Li Sheng felt that there must be something he didn't know. He nodded and said, "I didn't meet them. It's just that I saw them, but I didn't dare to let them find out before I was not sure about their attitude towards us. Could it be that there is What's the story?"

Babur nodded and said, "Since you have discovered them, we can no longer hide them from you. To avoid any accidents."

He paused, and continued: "Actually, the forest farm had contact with the indigenous people a year ago. When our loggers were doing resource surveys in the jungle, they encountered three indigenous people. Those damn workers shot , captured a wounded native. The bastards burned him to death. And they were also retaliated by the natives. Five people were shot dead with poisoned arrows on the spot. The only worker who came back alive was also driven away The forest farm, that bastard broke the incident to the media. After the media reported the incident, the forest farm faced tremendous pressure and could not continue logging. Later, Brazil announced new regulations on timber export taxes. Under multiple blows, the forest farm was closed Yes. The previous boss planned to sell the forest farm. But it was not sold until you came to take over."
