slack farmer in the wasteland

Chapter 146 Seeing is believing
Walking down the slope, a group of people immediately felt refreshed when they reached the valley, not only because of the lush greenery around them, but also felt as if the temperature in the valley had dropped by two or three degrees.

There is soft grass under your feet, and it feels like you are stepping on a blanket. As soon as you lift your feet, the dense grass stems, which are dense as if they have been trimmed, stand up again in a short while, as if they have never fallen down.

From time to time, one or two unknown pale white flowers bloom quietly among the grass stems. If you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all. Although the flowers are small, the fragrance seems to be quite strong. Lu Yanzhi grabbed one and put it in front of his nose , A strong fragrance of flowers directly stimulated his nasal cavity, making him sneezed uncontrollably.

"Ah!"

Lu Yanzhi threw down the little flower in his hand, rubbed his nose and said to Cang Hai: "This little flower is too fragrant, and the fragrance is a bit prickly to the nose. What kind of flower is this?".

Cang Hai didn't know what kind of flower it was, so he replied with a smile: "I really don't know, maybe it was brought by the bird."

When Lu Yanzhi heard that Cang Hai said he didn't know, he didn't say much, and continued to walk forward, while walking, he stretched out his feet like a small spring and bumped up.

Zhang Heng said with a smile at this time: "It would be beautiful to set up a tent here to enjoy the cool air this summer."

"Not bad!" Lu Yanzhi agreed with a smile.

At the edge of the pond where a group of people came, Lu Yanzhi stretched his head to look into the pond, and found that the water in the pond was crystal clear, and he could see the stones and aquatic plants at the bottom of the pond, as well as some large and small Small fish are swimming and playing in the water, and in the aquatic grass not far from me, you can also see a few small grass shrimps stretching out their claws gracefully, and the movements of countless legs under the stomach are like Can see clearly.

Boom!
Suddenly a sound sounded, startling Lu Yanzhi jumped. When he looked in the direction of the sound, he saw a huge frog swimming towards the center of the pond, and came to a piece of freshly grown frog. When the little lotus leaf was next to it, the frog climbed onto the lotus leaf. Because the lotus leaf was too small and the frog was too big, the whole lotus leaf sank, and after a few ripples, the frog sat firmly on the lotus leaf. .

Then the squatting frog croaked.

"This frog is not small." Lu Yanzhi said, "Is it specially raised?"

"No, this thing may have been brought down by the upstream reservoir. Didn't the reservoir burst during the rainy season, and these things may have come down at that time. So there are no frogs here," Cang Hai said.

"Oh, this head is not small. If it didn't look like a cucumber, I would have thought it was a bullfrog," Lu Yanzhi said.

The frogs here all look like this, their bodies are brown-green, with three bright green stripes from head to buttocks, and a snow-white piece on their stomachs.If it weren't for this huge bullfrog-like size, it would be no different from the common frogs in the county.

"How about we add some food at noon?" Cang Hai asked Lu Yanzhi after seeing the frog, licking his lips suddenly.

Lu Yanzhi looked at the huge frog for a while, but finally shook his head: "Forget it, it's not good to eat frogs here."

Cang Hai smiled and said: "What's the matter, anyway, we will eat if you don't eat it."

Cang Hai didn't notice before that this year's frog has grown to such a big size. It's a pity that this little fat head and big ears can't be cooked.

"Forget it, next time, come and try again next time, I never thought that you have achieved such a result here, if the entire loess ditch has become like this, then soil erosion is not a serious problem." It's over." Lu Yanzhi scooped up a handful of water in satisfaction, and splashed it into the pond playfully.

Cang Hai smiled and didn't answer Lu Yanzhi's words. There is no problem of soil erosion if the whole yellow land is made like this. I am afraid that the whole Yellow River will become a clear water river. Limiting the construction of the tree of life, I am afraid that it will take decades or even hundreds of years to achieve the effect Lu Yanzhi said.

Of course it would be nice if the entire Loess Slope was covered with green land, but Cang Hai would probably be exhausted at that time, and he would just suck in the world without doing anything all day long.

Wen Yiyi opened his mouth and said: "The loess here is still different. Some places are easier to plant, but some places are not so easy to plant. For example, in my area, the survival rate of trees planted in the northwest direction is much lower. As for those in the southeast and southwest directions, even if ten seeds are planted, one will not necessarily survive... ".

Lu Yanzhi immediately frowned when he heard this: "What is the reason? Have you found the reason?"

Wen Yiyi shook his head: "The soil has been sampled and sent to the laboratory of the Provincial Agricultural University. A dozen batches of samples have been sent, but they can't find the reason, and they also have a headache. The Agricultural University intends to allocate some of them this year. funds to study this."

Lu Yanzhi nodded when he heard this, and said affirmatively: "Yes, your thinking is very good, professional things should be done by professional people."

Cang Hai couldn't help but laugh to himself when he heard the conversation between the two. It's not because of the original soil, but because the scope of the tree of life has not been extended there. Canghai has restricted the scope of the tree of life to death. It can only develop to the southeast and southwest, because this piece of land is unclaimed land, and to the northwest, there are not only reservoirs, but also towns. The current energy of the tree of life is limited, how can Canghai use the limited energy? Wasting it on other people's territory, no matter how good it is, it has to be rotten in one's own pot, right?

"Let's go, let's go and have a look." Lu Yanzhi now felt that after arriving here, his heart and lungs were refreshed, and even his breathing seemed to be smoother. He stood up and led a group of people along the side of the pond Continue to go inside.

Walking and watching, after walking for almost half an hour, Wen Yiyi said to Cang Hai: "Cang Hai, the plants here are much more abundant than mine, and I counted these tree species to no less than thirty. Kind, where did it come from?"

Cang Hai said: "Actually, I only plant a dozen or so species. Look at the small ones, they were probably brought here by the birds. To be honest, it looks like a tree with purple leaves. I don't even know what it's called."

"When I have time, I'll ask Professor Zuo to come over and see why you have more plant types than mine, and what are these shrubs called. If possible, I'll transplant some over there too," Wen said.

"Okay, you can send someone to come. Earlier, I told you to let that agricultural expert come. How long have you been talking? The eyes of the villagers are all looking green," Cang Hai said with a smile.

At this moment, Lu Yanzhi looked up and saw the melon field on the slope, stretched out his finger and turned to Cang Hai and asked, "Is that the melon field?"

Cang Hai nodded: "Yes! That piece of sunny slope is all melon fields."

In fact, there is no need for Cang Hai to introduce it. Except standing in the woods, you can see the melon fields no matter where you stand. Huge watermelons are lying in the melon fields, just like green-skinned monsters lying on the green carpet. , as conspicuous as possible.

Lu Yanzhi came here this time to see Watermelon, upon hearing this, he smiled and waved his hand: "Come on, let's go up and have a look."

Lu Yanzhi spoke, and everyone followed up, so the five climbed up the slope and walked into the watermelon field.

"Your melon seedlings are quite strange. People's melon seedlings are all climbing forward like vines. Why do your melon seedlings climb like umbrellas, and all of them are round?" Lu Yanzhi smiled and bent over He patted the big watermelon under his feet and said.

Cang Hai said: "Who knows, if the melons didn't bear fruit, I would have been looking for the seed seller. After the melons bloomed and produced small melon buttons, I stopped thinking about it. Who knew that one by one would grow like this again. ...".

"This is your luck. I heard that you even patented this melon?" Lu Yanzhi asked with a smile.

Cang Hai nodded: "Yeah, this melon has grown like this, so I wanted to try to register a patent, but who knows that no one has registered it, so I naturally accepted it."

"Not to mention the entire county, even the city's enterprises probably have few companies that focus on patents. You are doing the right thing. In the future, with the long-term development of our country, intellectual property rights will become more and more important. I don’t know if you have heard the story of BJ duck and kiwi fruit. These two things used to be ours. Later, they were taken away by foreigners to cultivate and improve their varieties. Now they are sold to our domestic market. Let’s not talk about kiwi fruit. The most expensive ones are those from New Zealand, and BJ Duck’s company in the UK charges more than [-] million yuan in patent fees a year alone, so you can’t take intellectual property too seriously,” Lu Yanzhi said earnestly.

Cang Hai hummed repeatedly and nodded in agreement, but he said in his heart: You have said a lot, but you didn’t expect that the intellectual property rights of watermelon are not in my hands, but in the hands of Tuobizhan. This company It is also a foreign company!
"Choose a ripe one for me to see." Lu Yanzhi patted the melon next to him.

Cang Hai smiled and said: "It's no problem to pick a familiar one, but I really don't have the ability to open it up to show you, the skin of this melon is too thick, it's not easy to cut it without a saw, otherwise How about this, I'll pick a few ripe male melons, and then a few female melons, and we'll cut them up after we get them back?"

Lu Yanzhi came here this time because he was afraid of Cang Hai's falsification. Now that he saw the heart of the melon, he let it go. As for where to cut the melon, it is not a problem at all. Hearing Cang Hai's words, he nodded and agreed to Cang Hai's proposal .

Cang Hai whistled and called the ugly donkey over, picked four ripe male melons, and then picked two ripe female melons and put them on the cart.

After watching the melon fields, Lu Yanzhi was eager to walk along the waters of the pond again. After walking in a daze for more than an hour, Lu Yanzhi turned back to the village satisfied.
