Chapter 165 The Late Rainy Season

This chapter is a little short.But the place that should be broken is broken, and the lunatic can't help it.

It is expected that the rainy season will start soon, and everyone on the farm is busy. In addition to the workers in the farming area who need to prepare for farming, workers in other departments also need to prepare for the rainy season.

According to the plan, most of the farmland will be planted with rice during the rainy season this year, and the planters are busy raising seedlings. If they want to plant the seedlings before the rainy season, they will not have much time.

In the Amazon plains, if you want to soak the land in the dry season, the electricity bill for pumping water may be very high.But Li Sheng didn't care about this.Moreover, the Agricultural Bank does not need to pump water, as long as a lake is released from the sluice, the water can be retained in the fields.This allows the farm to prepare such a large area of ​​farmland before the rainy season arrives.

Everyone, including the Gilolo people, was busy, but Thomas was a little lost.

His tourism business has been preparing for more than a year, but he has not been able to see the exhibition.Now it seems that everything is ready, but the rainy season is coming again.This must be a big blow to Amazon's tourism industry.After all, few people are willing to visit in the case of torrential rain.

But soon something exciting happened to him.He approached Li Sheng and said, "Li, Cheng said he organized a tour group. It will arrive at the farm next week."

Li Sheng was caught off guard by the news.Before the rainy season, it is the hottest time on the farm, and the people on the farm are also busy.He was a little worried and said, "How many people do you need to arrange for them to come at this time?"

"At present, we can only visit the farm. We can arrange for plane pick-up and drop-off when necessary, and arrange for two chefs who cook delicious food." He paused and said. "It's a pity the boat hasn't been built yet."

The boat he was talking about was the cruise ship mentioned earlier.It was a [-]-ton Geirola.However, if you want to put it into use, I am afraid you will have to wait until after the rainy season.

Now the farm has been completed, which is the original residence of the Ji Luoluo tribe, and some wooden row houses on the oxbow lake have also been built.

Hearing what he said, Li Sheng thought about it, and said, "You can ask Zhang to coordinate the work of the workers. In addition, when people come, you must ensure safety. You should also coordinate with Babur. By the way, do you have a tour guide? ?”

Thomas had recruited some tour guides before, but because the farm has not been able to carry out tourism business, most of these tour guides have already found other ways to make a living.Li Sheng didn't care about this matter any more. Now that he heard that there were tourists coming, he couldn't help but think about this issue.

Thomas said with a smile: "There are two tour guides who stayed. They have been walking in the forest area during this time and know the forest very well."

Li Sheng knew that tourists were coming now, and Thomas would not give up receiving them no matter what. If it really didn't work out, he might act as a tour guide himself.

He smiled and said, "I'll leave those tourists to you."

Thomas knew that Li Sheng was busy during this time, so he said a few more words and went to prepare.

Not long after, Cherpov also came to see Li Sheng: "Li, I heard that fishing may not be possible during the rainy season. What about the production of caviar?"

The reason Cherpov cares so much about caviar production is that he has a fairly high profit per fish he makes.However, his worries are also related to the income of the farm.

Now the caviar from Silent Farm is very popular in Europe and Asia.The farm doesn't have much stock.Once the beluga sturgeon cannot be caught in the rainy season, it means that the stock will be out of stock.Of course, this was something Li Sheng didn't want to see.

He thought for a while and said: "I have a suggestion. That is, you should concentrate on working in the workshop during this time. Leave the fishing to other workers. Try to save as much as possible. If you can't work during the rainy season, you can just rest. "

Caviar can be stored for a long time under good storage conditions.According to his suggestion, Cherpov can get more income, and the farm will not be out of stock.

Cherpov agreed with his suggestion and said, "Okay, I can ask Song to guide the workers in fishing. Let Liu and Qian assist me."

Li Sheng nodded and said, "Your arrangement is very good."

Cherpov also left to arrange his own work.Then Anthony also came to talk to him about transportation.In the rainy season, there are still some troubles in transportation, whether it is by water or by air.But this only needs to be summarized and prevented.

Even Fred was worried that the pasture he wanted would not be able to be harvested during the rainy season, so he made a special trip to Silent Farm.

Everything seems to come together at once before the rainy season begins.In addition to production matters, Li Sheng was also worried about other things.Such as engineering construction.

The farm's 4000-meter-long runway has been built, and the runway itself can fully match 4E-class aircraft.But three more projects are still under construction.

The first one is irrigation projects in hilly areas.The amount of work is minimal.Just build some pools on high places, and then pull the pipes down and bury them where they need to be irrigated.

The second project and the third project are actually supporting.

Zhang Feng's pasture fertilization experiment had a very obvious comparison.If no green manure is applied after harvesting, it will take about 20 days for the grass to grow to its original length, and the leaves are not so thick. It will take at least one and a half months to reach the normal level.

However, after applying the green manure, although the forage grass grown in ten days is still so long, the average weight of a single leaf has increased by more than 60%.The other forage experiments were similar.

With the results of this experiment, Li Sheng finally set his abacus on selling grass.If the pasture is sold at a short distance, of course fresh pasture is the most cost-effective.But if it is a customer who is far away, it is best to sell dry pasture.Li Sheng asked the engineering team who were about to return home from work to rush to build some pasture warehouses.These warehouses are all built not far from the wharf, all using modular buildings.

The modular building speed will be faster, and the construction efficiency will be high.As long as the foundation is laid, those modules are almost ready to use.Then hoist them piece by piece, and one floor can be finished in one day.

The third project is to build a new green manure composting pond.Green manure support is indispensable for pasture sales.

But his worry was a bit superfluous.The rainy season is later than usual.

Usually, the rainy season comes in late November and early December.This year, because the school is worried that the rainy season will not be safe for children to go to school, the summer vacation is half a month earlier.But the rainy season has not arrived until mid-December.

This made Li Sheng worried.It's as if a person is holding back something, and once he lets go, it will explode.He worried that after the rainy season started, there would be a big flood.

Of course, the late arrival of the rainy season also allowed the three projects on the farm to be completed in an orderly manner.In mid-December, the construction team from China went back to China.The temporary local construction workers also all left the farm.It's just that the expected raindrops still haven't fallen.

The creatures in the rainforest survived the scorching heat for a few more days, and the heavy rain finally came.

This heavy rain was not a super rainstorm like Li Sheng feared.Taking advantage of the rain, he put the beluga sturgeon caught in space in the lake of the farm.This time he caught people of all age groups, and the number increased a lot.

He also sowed pasture seeds in the last clearing in the hilly area.He plans to raise some animals like sika deer here.When the pasture grows, these pastures will form a dominant community, crowding out other weeds and losing their living space.

The advantage of this kind of grass is that they can spread a few meters around, but they will not spread infinitely.Does not result in occupying all land.What's more, if these pastures don't have a bit of space to nourish them from the lake, they won't live long at all.This prevents these pastures from occupying the entire world due to their vigorous growth.

On this piece of land, Zhang Feng had asked someone to build a fence according to his request, and also built some sheds in it.After the grass grows, he will take out a sika deer and some herbivores to raise them.If it was all like this, and those animals still couldn't adapt to the tropical climate, then he had no choice but to give up.
