Chapter 524 Continue the drought

Find a way?

God can think of any way to avoid raining. At most, you can use a water pump to pump some water from the river to water the crops. However, in this weather, the soil cannot retain water at all. When you water it in the ground, the water will seep away. Moreover, the village has not done any drip irrigation, because you have never thought about this.

Even if I think about it, I can put it on it now, because there is no water.

The three of them chatted for a while and it was still the result of the headless fly.

Two more days later, the weather still had no intention of raining, and the cypress was no longer worried, because the food was over, and if you didn’t have water on the rice, you wouldn’t be able to play with eggs. What tricks would you think of if you didn’t think about it?

Sang Bai walked along the river with his hands on his back with a sad face. The water level had dropped by more than half. The big fish in the river were originally caught, leaving only some of them as planting fish and staying in the river. Even so, these fish were hiding in groups under the shade of trees. And they were still crowded in the water like half a pond.

The original eddy current generator is no longer available now. Fortunately, the village has a ticket, so I bought some diesel generators directly, otherwise it would be a problem to use electricity in the village.

Even now, the village calls on everyone to use less electricity during the day and wait until the air conditioner is turned on in the house at night.

The original bluestone road is a bit hot now when I step on it. As for the grass poking out of the cracks in the rocks, the grass has long lost its breath of life, and it has fallen on the side of the stone road withered yellow.

Sang Bai's cell phone rang at this time, and when he looked up, he found that it was Li Guang who called it.

"Boss! The price of forage has risen again."

This is Li Guang's first sentence.

"Just rise, then rise, what can I do?" Sang Bai said helplessly.

"This is not a matter of course." Li Guang was actually more worried than Sangbai.

Now the cattle farm in Sangbai is only four or five hundred cattle, there are more than two thousand sheep, and more than 30 horses. The consumption of fodder alone costs less than 100,000 yuan every day. As long as the dry season is one day, it will take one day. Sangbai is reluctant to sell these, because at this time you have to sell the cattle, and it will take more than ten years to return to their current scale.

"Why don't we learn to build a burning system for American ranches?" Li Guang suggested.

Sangbai asked back: "What's the use of a system without water? If there is water, use this? Keep buying. After this, we have to cut more forage every day, whether it's silage or hay."

This is a bit like a hindsight, and there is no way. Who would have thought that this year's drought is so severe? Not long after the beginning of spring, there was almost no rain. The original rainy season was the same. Looking at the blue sky all day long, Sanbo, who had always hated the rain, is now thinking about when God will open his eyes and make a heavy rain.

"I understand." Li Guang had no idea.

After hanging up the phone, Sangbai continued to walk west along the river with his hands behind his back. It was lush and lush, but now it looked all gray and yellow. Not to mention grass, some trees couldn't resist falling leaves.

This tree is quite clever. It hasn't rained for so long, these guys have started to take off leaves and lose water.

"Autumn harvest, what do you think will rain when it rains?"

Sang Bai looked up at the sky and asked about the autumn harvest behind him without looking back.

Autumn Harvest did not answer Sangbai's words, and it is now listless.

At noon, there are almost no people coming out. Not to mention people in the village, there are even a dog. Both humans and dogs are now hiding in the activity center. Because it saves electricity, everyone has transferred to the activity center because there is air conditioning in the whole village.

When I arrived at the entrance of the activity center, Sang Bai didn't go in, so I didn't have to go in. A group of old men and ladies must be playing mahjong.

Continue walking west along the road. At this time, as usual, you can see small animals from time to time, but now there is nothing. The only thing that can be considered an animal is the dragonflies flying all over the sky.

As the old saying goes, if a dragonfly flies high, it will definitely be rainless. Once a dragonfly flies low, it will prove that it will rain. Today, the dragonfly flies high and fast, obviously without rain.

The wild boars and other active here are now gone, and the food is gone. These animals are forced to migrate to the more dangerous forest. At this time, they don’t care about the carnivores in the deep forest. Only when they enter the deep forest can they have fresh and water-filled food.

After walking around, I got home and squatting for a while, I couldn't stand the heat. Even if I stayed under the shade of old ginkgo, I was sweating for a while. Sangbai decided to take Qiu Sheng to the cattle farm together because there was a generator there, at least an air conditioner.

Although Sangbai can also install generators at home, the sound of that thing is too loud. When one is placed at home, it makes Sangbai feel upset and angry in a short while, so he simply doesn't install it.

After driving into the car, Sangbai brought the autumn harvest to the cattle farm.

When I passed the training ground, I found that there were still children from the village who were teaching in the training ground. Since the training ground of Sangbai opened, the children of Liushuzhuang Primary School have another physical education class, which is riding horses.

Sang Bai didn't go in, so he drove around the training ground and ran through the mountain road between the two ridges. He soon appeared in the cattle farm.

The originally vast green blanket is now withered and yellow.

After entering the office, Sang Bo was stunned for a moment and found that there was no electricity in the office, so he took Qiuhuo to the stable.

After pushing open the stable door, I suddenly felt a cool breeze venting comfortably from every pore into my body. Even the autumn harvest that followed me became more energetic.

"boss!"

Some employees kept passing by Sanba and greeted Sanba.

"Hello".

Sanba returned to these busy workers.

At this time, the workers were busier than usual. They not only had to add fodder to horses but also to the cattle shed to add feed to cattle and sheep. In the past, there was no need to be such a trouble. At least they could just drive the animals outside during the day. Now they are not allowed. All animals are either in the shed or hidden in the woods, and each feeding takes a long time.

Although there are carts or something, the last step is to be manually operated by workers. Especially for these horses, horses cannot be fed enough ingredients at one time. Just like people eat, eat less and more meals. People will get sick if they overeat, let alone horses.

The horses were all pretty good. As these guys ate and pulled them, they made a smell of horse urine in the stable. Although Li Guang kept cleaning, the smell could not be removed.

"If this rain doesn't come down again, then the summer grain this year will be without harvest."

Sanbo heard the workers talking.

The workers here are all nearby, and there are few land at home. Even if they don’t plant them, they still have relatives and friends. This year, the possibility of no harvest of summer grains is almost a matter of nailing on the board.

This place is located on the corner of the Jianghuai Plain. Generally speaking, there is plenty of rainfall, so there are no good storing facilities. The facilities mentioned here are modern storing, not the kind of canal sluice gates. If this thing is everywhere, the government started to repair these things a few years ago. Now the main sluice canal is made of cement, and there are also supporting sluice gates or reservoirs every other section.

The same thing is said, things like water are useless.

"Have you grown grain at home?" Sang Bai asked over.

"Well, there are more than three acres of food fields in the family. My parents are planting them, but they are always sad these days. As soon as they get home, they see my father sitting at the door without saying a word. The old couple could still drive the animals to the wells five or six miles a few days ago to scoop water and water seedlings. Even the well water has dried up in the past two days," said the man.

"How many towns are there? How many towns are the most severe drought?" Sang Bai asked.

"How many villages are there? The whole city is so drought here. The north side is better. There is still a little water in the old Huai River, but it's so bad," said another.

At first, the man said: "The farmers are suffering this year, and I don't know what to do when it comes to summer grain. Can the public avoid this summer grain?"

"It must be exempted. How can I accept it if it's like this?"

"Too!"

After chatting with the workers for five or six minutes, they started to work hard again. Sanba prepared the Quat horse he often rode, threw the autumn harvest in the stable to cool down, and he looked around the cattle farm.

About half an hour later, Sang Bai met Li Guang and others who were working.

In addition to Li Guang, there are also several people from manufacturers.

These people are installing cameras.

Originally, it should be very safe to place animals here, at least Sangbai thought it was like this before, but Sangbai still underestimated the hard-working spirit of some thieves. The stimulation of money allowed them to come over mountains and rivers to steal things. Sangbai was a little speechless.

These hateful thieves could get around through the cracks of the mountain, then cut the wire with their pliers and drill in, driving the cows and sheep away.

Although the cattle and sheep are taken care of by the big bulls, the number of cattle and sheep is not taken care of by the big bulls now. Moreover, if so many cattle and sheep are placed together to eat grass, it will be a disaster for the grass. Therefore, when stocking here, density must be paid attention to, that is, there are at most four or five cows and ten sheep on a mu of grassland.

This is a scientific method. Although the sang cypress has space water, if it had been chewed off by a sheep, it would be a troublesome thing.

When it comes to space water, someone may ask why the cypress is useless. I dare not use it. If you are not affected at all in this dry season, it is so eye-catching. Besides, even if the cypress wants to use it, you must have a source of water. Now there are nine out of ten small rivers here withered, so how can you use water? If you use a sprinkler truck, the cypress is not really a prophet. How could he remember that there was such a severe drought here this year? He was a city kid in his previous life, so how could he feel like a farmer?

“How many have you installed??

Sanbai rode over and asked after getting off the horse.

"There are five or six more people left to be ready," said Li Guang.

"Someone came over again last night, and he was still stupid!" A worker who installed a camera smiled and talked about catching the thief last night.
