I loaded the farm game

Chapter 301 Picking up snails

"Sure enough, there are a lot of barnyard grass growing in this rice field!"

“And there are water plants and water hyacinth!”

"If these weeds are not removed, they will compete with the rice for nutrients and affect the rice harvest!"

Mr. Ye followed the path, along with Lin Zhou and his own guards, to the edge of the paddy field in the villa.

After walking along the field for some distance, there was some satisfaction in his eyes.

It seems that through these living seedlings, he has seen the future golden harvest scene full of rice ears.

"Old man, can you still distinguish seedlings from tares?"

Lin Zhou followed beside him and smiled happily.

"You kid, are you looking down on people? How could I not be able to tell the difference, old man?" Mr. Ye glared at him.

"Don't look at me, old man. I'm half a soldier. I can tell the difference between weeds and seedlings better than the baby you have now!"

"That's true!"

Lin Zhou nodded and agreed with this.

In fact, a large number of people of their generation cannot tell the difference between tares and seedlings after they left production!

For example, on the Internet, some people put pictures of weeds and seedlings together and asked which one was the seedling and which one was the weeds.

As a result, there were so many people arguing in the comment area.

One is said to be seedlings, and the other is said to be tares.

Needless to say, the younger generation than them.

Compared with Lin Zhou and the others, at least when they were young, in middle school, high school, or even college, they might go home to help with farm work during rice planting and harvesting.

The younger generation rarely does this kind of work anymore!

Therefore, they only know one thing about the things in the rice fields and soil, but they don't know the other.

Some things that are similar to crops can no longer be distinguished.

"I still remember how my father and others taught me how to distinguish tares from seedlings."

"Based barnyard grass and rice seedlings can usually be distinguished by their color. Rice seedlings and soybeans are all green in color, while barnyard grass has mostly white roots."

"In addition, the bottom of barnyard grass is smoother than that of seedlings, while seedlings are hairy and very flat!"

"Then there are the leaves. The leaves of the seedlings are also green overall. As for the leaves of the barnyard grass, the stem in the middle will tend to be white. The larger the leaves, the more obvious it is!"

"However, at that time, we mostly relied on experience for this thing. We talked about it a lot, and naturally we could distinguish it at a glance."

Mr. Ye squatted on the edge of the field and pulled out a nest of tares from the mud.

"The impact of this thing on the seedlings if not pulled out is no less than insect pests."

"My mother didn't say this to them. When I was a child, I only knew how to go to the fields with them and pull weeds!" Lin Zhou responded with a smile.

"In addition, sometimes, the seedlings are pulled out by mistake."

When he was a child, he really didn't know the impact of tares like this on seedlings.

When I was doing farm work, I even thought that the seedlings would grow well without pulling them out.

Just like some crops grown in the ground do not produce grass, I feel that they should also grow and bear fruit normally.

But when I grew up, I realized that if it weren’t for the careful care of the growers, these crops might not even survive.

As for bearing fruit, don’t even think about it!

Therefore, when I grow up, I realize how much time, energy and sweat it took to grow the things in the fields when I was a child, so that the crops can bear so many rich fruits!

Intensive cultivation, intensive cultivation, is really not just a word!

"Old man, I've been scolded before, and I've been scolded a lot!" Mr. Ye probably thought of the past, and showed a nostalgic look.

However, in just a moment, he returned to normal, looked at something in the paddy field and said:

"There seem to be a lot of snails in this paddy field. Why don't you pick some up when you are clearing the grass? Then we can raise them for two days, spit out the sand, and cook them. It will be another delicious dish to go with wine!"

"Old man, when you say that, another question comes to my mind. Can you tell the difference between the lucky snail and the field snail?" Lin Zhou smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"I haven't studied this." Mr. Ye shook his head.

"At that time, we only had field snails, where did the lucky snails come from?"

"Can you tell the difference clearly? Why don't you tell me the difference? What's the difference?"

Hearing this, Lin Zhou didn't pretend to be profound and said directly:

"I've actually seen this. The best thing to distinguish between the two types of snails is their tails. The tail of the field snail is sharper than that of the apple snail, while the tail of the apple snail is shorter and flatter."

"Then there is the screw mouth. The screw mouth of the apple snail has no black border, but the screw mouth of the field snail has a black border!"

When he talked about it, he felt very scared.

Because when they were young, for some unknown reason, apple snails appeared in the paddy fields in their hometown.

The eggs laid by apple snails are red, one-handled, and look very good in shape.

Therefore, as soon as it appeared, it attracted a lot of attention from them.

At that time, they had no idea that this kind of snail was dangerous to eat.

And although they don't often eat things like screws and shells from the fields, they still eat them once or twice if they are greedy for meat.

Lin Zhou remembered that once they picked up lucky snails and ate them.

At that time, they didn’t understand the difference between field snails and apple snails.

I even think that the snails are a good thing because they are big and have a lot of meat.

So I picked up a lot of them and took them back and cooked a big pot of them.

However, I probably only ate it once at that time. Although it was stir-fried, it was stir-fried with water, so nothing happened after eating it.

Of course, I don’t know if this is related to the pagoda insecticide they took when they were children!

I used to take that insect repellent, and if I continued to take it, um... anyone who had taken it should understand.

"Is the Lucky Snail inedible?" Mr. Ye looked at Lin Zhou and said aloud.

"Well, it's not that you can't eat it. I read that there are a lot of parasites in it. If you don't handle it well, it's easy to cause problems when you eat it, and it may even be life-threatening!"

"Internationalization and species invasion are difficult to avoid." Mr. Ye sighed.

"Hahahaha!"

"That's true, but our people are still very powerful. The crayfish that are rampant in other countries are worth their weight in ours!" Lin Zhou rolled up his trousers.

"I can't eat that thing either. A shrimp is not big to begin with. If you remove the head and tail, there is only two ounces of meat. It is very troublesome to eat. There is no head left at all."

Mr. Ye said with a disgusted expression.

"Young people like it! The main purpose of crayfish is to eat it with beer!" Lin Zhou smiled slightly, stepped onto the field with both hands, and began to touch the screws and pull the weeds in the water.

"You two go to the middle, and leave the rest to me!" Before setting off, Mr. Ye also specially picked up a long pliers-like tool.

Obviously, technology changes life.

Although he doesn't go to the fields, he can still use tools to pick up grass and pinch snails in the fields. "OK!"

"Do you have any perilla here? When you make snails, you need to put some in them to make them fragrant!"

"Yes! Master, are you planning to cook by yourself?"

"Okay, I'll let you try my craftsmanship then!"

Mr. Ye said confidently.

"Let me tell you, my skill in frying snails is of course recognized by the cooking class master!"

"First of all, if you want to cook the fried snail dish well, the most critical thing is to handle the snails."

"This deals with snails..."

Hoeing weeds, picking up snails, and listening to the old man talk about how to cook and eat snails. Unknowingly, most of the pots were filled with these snails, big and small.

Weeds such as tares and water hyacinth were also piled all over the field.

Lin Zhou and the others came out of the paddy field and washed the mud on their feet with water at the edge of the field. They didn't see anything soft and sticky sticking to their legs.

"There are no leeches!"

"Put on your shoes!" Mr. Ye glanced around their legs with black hair, his expression seemed a little disappointed.

It was like I wanted to watch the excitement, but I didn't see it.

"..." Seeing his reaction, Lin Zhou shook his head helplessly: "Old man, you just want to watch the leech suck us in, right?"

"No, no, it's mainly because I was moved by the scene. When I saw you going to the fields, I naturally thought of that thing!"

"I've been sucked by this thing before!" Mr. Ye chuckled.

"Didn't you ever get hit when you went to the fields before?"

"No, I just saw other people being sucked!" In Lin Zhou's memory, he only remembered that one time.

It seemed that a large group of people were digging lotus roots in the lotus root field, and then a leech got into someone's calf.

At that time, half of the leech was still outside. When someone saw it, they pulled it out.

Lin Zhou couldn't remember the specific details, but the scene seemed quite bloody.

Apart from that, he had never seen a leech burrowing into his legs to suck blood.

Even when they went out to take photos of eels at night in the summer, no one was affected.

Therefore, he felt that this should be a small probability event and did not arouse the fear of locusts in children.

When you grow up, time passes and your mentality may have changed.

When I think of the scene of a leech burrowing into my body, I feel a shudder all over.

Of course, now I heard that leech is also a medicinal material, and it is not cheap.

It's a pity that there was no one there to collect them at that time, otherwise they would definitely carry this bucket and go to the fields to catch leeches whenever they had nothing to do.

"If you don't have that, don't try it anymore!" Mr. Ye waved his hand.

"Go back, go back, these snails need to be raised quickly and spit out sand."

Then, they picked up the snails, picked up their tools, and hurried back.

At this time, the outside world, as Mr. Ye said before, with the end of this press conference, explosive news spread rapidly on the online media.

"Shocked! Several academicians of the Academy of Sciences actually collectively did such a thing!!!"

"Shocked!!! A new company actually made several academicians do such a thing!"

"Unbelievable! Academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences actually developed such a thing!!!"

"A little-known company actually made the entire world's seed companies tremble..."

"A press conference actually caused the market value of many top seed companies to evaporate by hundreds of millions of yuan in one day!"

All kinds of news reports are overwhelming, and the headlines are more outrageous than the last.

Moreover, driven by the huge traffic, some gossip news that has no basis at all has been fabricated.

This made the people who were originally eating melons even more energetic.

When these news spreads created a huge traffic pool, some information about Longxing Company was also found out by the Internet public.

Among them, as the apparent leader of the company, Chen Guodong was the first to have his information announced.

Of course, he had anticipated and prepared for this situation, so after the information was made public, although it had a certain impact on his life, it did not cause much trouble.

It was nothing more than a transformation from a not-so-famous rich second generation to the CEO of an emerging seed company.

In addition, there were some reporters who wanted to dig out more information from him, and they immediately paid attention to him.

However, in these news, there are still some "opposition" voices.

In the comments, there are also speeches such as bad-mouthing, hype, and showmanship.

Under the guidance of certain forces, this has become a considerable dark force.

Therefore, whether it is online videos or news reports, there are always people arguing and talking about it.

Even the authoritative media cannot silence them.

These did not have much impact on Longxing Hi-Tech.

Because on the same day, in the news broadcast that was delayed for some time, the official media also officially made relevant statements about the press conference.

In the statement, Longdou No. 1 and other seeds were explained, saying that their emergence would break our country's current dependence on some foreign genetic seeds.

At the same time, changing some of the weak problems existing in my country's own seeds will be conducive to the long-term development of my country's agriculture and have a decisive impact on agriculture.

In short, it is a series of very official words.

At the end of the news broadcast, he praised companies like Longxing Hi-Tech without hesitation and gave them high praise.

As soon as this move came out, the naysayers in the comments were once again chased and beaten by the righteous party.

Moreover, after several people who deliberately induced and spread conspiracy theories on the Internet were arrested and reported by the police, some people also restrained themselves.

Furthermore, the good news about Longxing Hi-Tech has become the general trend and the mainstream.

Longxing High-tech, a newly established small company, has jumped into the public eye.

There will naturally be follow-up effects from this incident.

It is said that on the day the news came out, the stock markets of some related seed companies experienced violent shocks, and some even dropped to the limit like a plunge. The market value of the company evaporated in an instant.

There are also some people who seem to have smelled the news in advance and took advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money.

Of course, for Lin Zhou, who does not trade in stocks, these are not his main concerns.

What he is concerned about is the company's kimchi products.

Just when the traffic was about to reach its peak, he and Mr. Ye's kimchi product was finally announced to be on the market!
