My 1995 Small Farm - Chapter 383
Chapter 383 Earth Dragon
The sunshine in late spring is a little more impetuous, but it is more of warmth, far less hot than summer.
Although the flowers and plants in the orchard have avoided the ravages of tourists, they cannot escape the scourge of domestic poultry, livestock and various wild birds.
But fortunately, under the virtuous cycle of spiritual water and the small ecological circle, crops of flowers and plants will emerge one after another, and all kinds of flowers and plants will appear on the stage after you sing, and replace the orchard with a new set of flowers every once in a while. clothes.
The same is true for the fish, shrimp and crabs in the canal. Although people catch them every day, the number has not decreased much. This is true for fish, especially for tadpoles.
The superior environment has attracted wave after wave of frogs and toads to lay eggs here, and they cannot be driven away. The tadpoles in the water channel are all black and white, floating in layers all day long, and some of them grow out. The legs came and attracted many small dolls in the city to fish for.
At first, the ducks at home were afraid to approach the canal because there were too many tourists. Recently, they got used to it and let go of their courage a lot. They swim around the canal every day to catch tadpoles and eat them.
But even so, there is no decreasing trend.
So Chen Ling left the tourists at two o’clock in the morning and evening, and when he was free at home, he took Zhou Weijun and Yu Qi’an’s crew to catch tadpoles and feed them to the chickens.
Don’t worry about ducks, mainly chickens.
Yu Qi’an and others, especially those young actresses, like to do this job very much. They can play and feed the chickens. The key is to feed the brooding hens, so that the hens can help them hatch their eggs.
They heard from Chen Ling that if you feed the hens more worms, the eggs would hatch sooner, so they were all motivated and had a sense of accomplishment.
Of course, this was Chen Ling’s nonsense.
It’s just that most birds’ eggs break quickly, and they can hatch in as little as ten days. These people have lived in the city for a long time, and they don’t understand these things, so it’s easier to fool them.
Seeing the birds hatching one after another from the eggs, I thought that my own efforts to pick up tadpoles and feed them to the chickens would speed up the progress of hatching eggs. Everyone felt a sense of accomplishment and became more active.
Every day when I have free time, I catch insects and fish tadpoles, feed them to chickens, and also feed them to chicks.
Originally, they stayed until now, and they had already stayed for seven or eight days after filming. They had had enough fun, and it was time to leave.
But seeing that the broken bird was still so small, and they couldn’t take it away even if they wanted to, the two actresses felt very reluctant.
Plus I just realized the sense of accomplishment and fun of raising a cute pet.
I just wanted to stay for a while longer, and leave when I grow up a bit and can take it away.
But if they didn’t leave, the rest of the crew had to leave. They still had to do follow-up work after filming, and the three of Yu Qi’an couldn’t wait to leave.
Because he wanted to bring his birds back quickly, to try out how the market was doing, and he had caught so many birds, and two animals with white fur had to be transported away.
It is also more convenient to walk with the big team.
Yu Qi’an and the others left, and the two actresses didn’t have any acquaintances. Apart from feeding the birds every day, they asked the little boy in the village to take them to the mountains to pick wild fruits.
Now, there is another upsurge in mountain tours.
Even Chen Ling’s orchard has become much deserted here.
But he doesn’t care about these things. After having a child, his patience has increased, and his mentality has been refined by his own little troublemaker. He can live a lively life and a peaceful life.
Whether it is salty or light, he enjoys it.
Furthermore, for the past few days, the little white cow and the little green horse have earned a lot of money from selling tickets, especially since the name of the little white cow has been spread, and each person is charged ten yuan a day just for taking pictures. Ticket money, the income is very scary.
Now that it’s deserted, let’s calm down a little bit, and it’s time to let them rest and relax for a few days.
“Father, mother, I’ve been busy for almost a month, you guys should also take two days off, we don’t need to rush to make money.”
“A Ling can make money, haven’t you seen it? In just a few days, our family has added 20,000 yuan to the income. If the Labor Day holiday is almost over and many people go back, it must be more than 20,000 yuan. ”
Today the farm is rare and quiet, no one comes, and Wang Susu doesn’t want the two elders to guard the stove all day, busy with smoke and fire.
“It’s okay, just take a rest. Then stay with our grandson.”
The old couple cheerfully took off their aprons, wiped their hands, and went to hug Ruirui next to Chen Ling.
Chen Ling picked two barrels of wild fruits now, so he took the little white cow and the little green horse into the farm, improved their food, and rewarded them both.
Ruirui sat on Heiwa, a big dog-shaped cradle, watching the two big animals eating while playing.
At this time, grandpa and grandma came to hug him, but he ignored him, turned his small body slightly to the side and avoided it, and continued poking his head, watching the horses and cows burying their heads in the bucket and eating big mouthfuls without blinking. .
Seeing that he was fascinated, the second elder stopped hugging him.
Moved two small horses to sit with the little thing, chatting with Chen Ling and the young couple.
“My mother and I haven’t counted the money we earned these days, but it must be a lot. Why don’t you save it for us tomorrow.”
“Okay, I’ll take you to save it together, go as soon as possible, every household in the village is making a lot of money these days, there must be a lot of people saving money.”
“Yes, yes, everyone has been making a lot of money these days. Those who sell eggs, those who sell rice, those who sell incense and paper, and those who manage people’s board and lodging, who guide people into the mountains, and take people to pick wild things in the mountains. Sure enough, it looks inconspicuous, and everyone is making a fortune silently.”
“Yeah, after finishing all this work, I didn’t forget to grind the feed to feed the fish when I got home. That guy, when he saw a profitable job, he grabbed it all at once, wishing he could hold it all in his own hands.”
Speaking of the situation in the village, it’s so hot that it’s not enough to describe it. Everyone is full of energy, as if they have been beaten with chicken blood.
It’s like taking those young people to the mountains to pick wild fruits, and they can earn tens of dollars a day.
It’s not a lot of trouble, and it’s not much easier than farming. The villagers are rushing to do it.
Right now, there is only a small tail left for the May Day holiday, and many people rush back. Otherwise, based on this alone, not to mention the money earned from selling miscellaneous things, it is better than going to other places to work.
“A Ling, tell me, will our place still be so lively on the fifth day of May, during the Dragon Boat Festival?”
Wang Susu asked, she also wanted her parents to earn more money.
“It’s definitely going to be lively. Just like this month’s situation, it’s uncertain whether there will be many foreigners from big cities.”
Chen Ling shook his head. These people were attracted by old turtles.
After this year’s incident got out, I heard that the provincial and municipal TV stations took out last year’s interview and shooting video and rebroadcasted it many times. In addition, before the rebroadcast, the incident was fermented nearby for a period of time, which attracted so many tourists. .
But, the local flaws are too obvious.
The mountain roads are rugged and the transportation is inconvenient. Although Chen Ling and others seem to go to and from the city, it seems easy.
Actually, this is due to familiarity with the road, knowing where to detour and get on the road.
It is easy to get lost if you are a stranger who has never been here before.
This is very normal. In another ten or twenty years, you will still get lost with navigation, let alone at this time.
Once you get lost and delay the itinerary, the key is dangerous.
Let’s not talk about wild beasts, and don’t mention road tyrants who block the way. Even if there are no such things, if you get lost somewhere, you can’t go to the village or go to the store, and staying overnight in the wilderness is not a good way in itself. experience.
Come here with a relaxed mood, but when you encounter this kind of thing, it’s no wonder that a bad experience can leave a good impression.
So Chen Ling himself knew very well that the village looked very popular now, but in this year and month, it was definitely not possible to rely on tourism for a short period of time. They were located in a remote place, and the basic conditions in all aspects were not perfect, so they couldn’t do it.
As he said to Zhao Dahai, this is not his business, he just needs to take care of himself.
Chen Ling has always been low-key and self-aware.
It’s just that some things are not what he can expect.
The second day after discussing this matter, something happened to the reservoir again. When Zhao Dahai and the others planted electric poles, they actually dug into a water monster’s lair.
Chen Ling originally planned to wait for a while, after the tourists left, to explore by himself.
If you find any strange creatures, you can catch them in the cave and cultivate them yourself to improve your living conditions or something.
But he didn’t expect that this matter that he had kept in his heart and never told outsiders would be exposed in this situation.
The tourists who hadn’t left also exploded.
Lord Turtle didn’t see it, but actually caught up with the water monster, especially after hearing some old people in the village say, it seems to be some kind of earth dragon, this guy has the word “dragon” on it, so you can’t miss it.
