Rebirth 1982 Be the stubborn master

Chapter 98 Back to Hometown
Uh, people don’t know this word, that’s right, they are not professional silkworm farmers, so who cares about it.

Silkworms belong to the category of complete metamorphosis insects, yes, they are metamorphosis insects.

But the abnormality mentioned here is not the abnormality that is very abnormal, but the abnormality that changes form.

It refers to the sum of a series of changes in the external form, internal structure, physiological function, living habits and behavioral instincts of insects during the process of developing from larvae to adults.

For example, silkworms hatch from eggs to larvae, then from larvae to chrysalis, and finally into adults—the moths.

After the eggs hatch, they are called the first age. After eating mulberry leaves for about 3 days, they enter a rest period without eating or moving, that is, the molting period.

After molting, grow one year old and enter the growth period of the second year old.

Normally reared silkworms need to molt their larvae four times before they can become fifth instar larvae.

At the end of the fifth instar, silkworms grow fat and big, and then spin silk, cocoon, pupate and complete the entire life cycle.

Silkworm babies that have undergone 4 larval molts are called Simian silkworms.

However, if silkworms spin silk, cocoon and pupate directly at the end of the fourth instar without going through the fifth instar, they are called three-sleeping silkworms.

The cocoons made by Sanmian silkworm are generally only less than 60% of that of Simian silkworm, and they are also thinner. It is the best choice for imitating plain gauze clothing.

Telling the difference between the three-mian silkworm and the four-mian silkworm, Esnile shook her head and said, "I didn't pay attention to this, but the silk here is indeed thinner than other silk."

If you don't know, you don't know, as long as it meets his requirements.

A few people searched for a long time in the mulberry forest, and found a lot of silkworm eggs, which will be enough for him to raise by next spring.

Seeing that it was still early, Sanjay Zabu took him to play on the grassland for half a day before returning to the yurt.

Although the silkworm eggs had been found, Du Kang did not go back directly, but traveled here to play in the mountains and rivers. He waited for Sanjay Zabu to stay at home for two days and express his lovesickness with his family before returning.

When they went back, Wang Jie had already completed the retirement procedures for Dabai and Xiaobai for them.

Du Kang thanked them, then took out a piece of paper and said, "Can I trouble you to prepare some feed for them on the road."

"There is a special feed here, so there is no need to reconfigure it."

"This is the feed I specially prepared for the big white and the little white according to their growth conditions. It is rich in nutrients and fed for a long time, which can make the horses stronger. You can try it, and it will definitely grow better than the current feed."

Wang Jie looked at the feed ratio in his hand, shook his head and said, "Forget it, here are military horses, and your feed configuration is difficult, not suitable for military horses."

Du Kang didn't mention it again. His feed ratio is indeed very nutritious. Eating it for a long time will not only make the horse stronger, but also optimize the horse's fur, making it look more shiny, but it is indeed a bit expensive, more expensive than ordinary feed more than double.

He raises two horses, and he can use this kind of feed regardless of the cost. However, there are so many military horses, and the increased cost of using this feed is too high, so it is not worth using.

After the feed was prepared, Du Kang said goodbye and left, taking Dabai and Xiaobai to his hometown by train.

As for the furs and silkworm eggs he bought, Du Kang originally planned to send them back by mail, but he thought that mailing these days is not easy, and these things are considered valuables, so they are easy to lose.

So he called back and asked Wang Hao to come and take these things back.

When they came to the train station, they went through the delivery procedures for Dabai and Xiaobai. The staff looked at them, especially when they saw the military horse mark on the back of their buttocks, they immediately became vigilant.

"You said this is a retired army horse?"

"Yes, this is proof of their decommissioning."

Du Kang handed him the certificate, but the other party still didn't believe it, and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go over and ask."

As he said that, he also asked people to come over to watch them, to prevent them from escaping, and to enter the office to inquire about the situation at any time.

Du Kang couldn't laugh or cry, he regarded himself as a horse thief, and he had to admire the vigilance of the staff.

But that's right, such a good horse is the most suitable time to be a military horse. If you say it's retired, no one will believe it.

The other party will come back soon, and this time he will be more enthusiastic. He held his hand and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, if you said earlier that this is used as a white dragon horse, I promise to let it go."

Du Kang expressed his understanding: "It's nothing, it's all necessary for work. It is because of the vigilant railway personnel like you that the safety and smooth flow of the railway can be guaranteed."

Hearing what he said, the staff seemed very happy and helped send Dabai Xiaobai to the train.

Du Kang also got on the train and started another train journey.

Stopping and stopping on the road, taking a train for more than two days, he arrived at an ordinary county in the northeast, where his hometown is Dujiatun.

From the name of Dujiatun, I know that the Du family is the main one, and the fact is the same. The surname Du is the main one, accounting for more than half of the village. There are dozens of households, more than 200 people, and most of the rest are related. It is a village formed by the family.

There is also a Du family ancestral hall with a history of more than 200 years at the east end of the village.

After getting off the train and transporting Dabai and Xiaobai off the train, Natalia said, "This is the first time I see your grandparents, how about I buy him some presents?"

"That's so embarrassing, let you spend money."

"How can you not bring a gift for the first time? If you feel distressed, you can pay for it yourself."

Dukang...

The gift you buy expresses your heart, co-author until the end, or should I pay for it?
But who is his wife? Du Kang nodded in agreement.

A small county town, of course, there is no place like the Friendship Store, which sounds tall, but there are shops.

The two rode over, tied the horse aside, gave the gatekeeper two packs of cigarettes, and asked him to help watch Dabai Xiaobai and go in to find gifts.

This is the largest store in the county, and the items are quite rich.

The two first went to the place where the fruit was sold. They bought a lot of apples, bananas, sugar cane, and various fruits.

Du Kang saw that there were still bundles of sugarcane there, so he said, "Take twenty, there are many children in the village, and the sugarcane is sweet and durable."

It is not an exaggeration to say that they are all relatives in the village. This time he returned to his hometown, not to mention how much he has contributed to his hometown, but at least he must bring some delicious food to the children in the village.

It is also to give parents face and let people know that his son is promising.

With so many things, they couldn't take them for a while, so Du Kang asked the clerk, "Can I trouble you to help deliver them to the exit, and take them with us when we leave."

Who do you think you are when the clerk rolls his eyes and wants to spray someone and send it to the exit.

Suddenly, I saw Natalia nodded, her face changed instantly, and she smiled and said, "It's easy to say, I'll send it over later."

Since he is a foreigner, it's okay to help send it there, at least not because of such a trivial matter, making people think that people in this country are not qualified.

The two continued shopping, and when they saw good ones, they would buy them and send them to the exit. They bought a lot of things, mostly food, and they also bought two ready-made clothes for their grandparents.

Passing by a place where watches are sold, Natalia said, "I haven't seen you wearing a watch for so long, or I'll buy you one, not to mention showing off, and you must be able to know the time at any time."

"Okay, this is a gift from my wife, how can I not want it?"

Speaking of which, he still doesn't even have a watch, and he doesn't know the time all day long. If it was left in the past, he would die in a day, but now, he's used to it, and he doesn't think there's anything wrong with not knowing the time.

The main reason is that as a boss, he doesn't have to wake up early and work late at night. He sleeps until he wakes up naturally every day. He does whatever he wants, and he doesn't need to watch the time.

Rest when it is dark, and continue working when it is not dark, regardless of what time he does.

Timing is just that arbitrary.
