Salted Fish Dad, Passive Farming

Chapter 25 The little thief is here, please enter the pit

Ji Ran held the knife and ran over with the lamp on. The miner's lamp swept back and forth a few times, and there was nothing on the entire vegetable field except for various vegetables and other plants.

"Wang Wang, Wang Wang Wang..."

Wang Zai was barking at the mountains behind.

Using his toes, Ji Ran could also imagine that the thief Wang Zai found had already oiled the soles of his feet and slipped away to Lingshan.

"What the hell is it? The idea came to me? You are not small, do you think my pot is not compatible with it?"

Ji Ran came to the side of the fragrant wheat field, looked at the light, and couldn't help being startled.

The entire grassland is so green that it looks like a natural green carpet.

Didn’t you pull a lot of it this morning?
Just grow out?
The ability to regenerate is as bad as the ability to grow!
I just don’t know whether it can survive and regenerate all year round, or is it like most other common grasses, which will wither and turn yellow in autumn, stop growing in winter, and only revive in spring?
Uh, no matter what happens to it at that time, anyway, it has such an unreasonable resurrection ability, then I can use it to do something well.

In addition, the grass is intact, and it seems that the thief has not had time to bite.

Thanks to Wang Zai for his timely discovery.

The primary 'elf' card was used on it, and it was really used correctly. Looking at the things Wang Zai did successively, each one was valuable.

Ji Ran's mind was spinning, and the light was shining back and forth near the fragrant wheat grass.

He believed that since the thief had come and left traces, it would be impossible to create a scene of an attempted crime with a high IQ, right?

As expected.

Since it had just rained the day before yesterday, the muddy ground was still a little wet, Ji Ran soon found the traces.

It was a few rows of messy pig's hoof marks.

"It seems to be a little wild boar. No wonder Wang Zai ran away when he called it. If it was an adult big wild boar, how could it be scared away by the barking of a dog... Faced with a dog, they will not be cowardly at all... Even face to face They don't flinch from the person holding the thing... Otherwise, how do so many incidents of wild boars hurting people every year happen?"

Ji Ran understood.

I'm also a little confused. In mid-spring, there is no shortage of food in the mountains. The wild boar herds are usually active in the deep mountains and old forests.

Why did this little piglet come here to commit thief?Moreover, the young wild boars generally follow the sows, and there are no traces of adult wild boars left on the ground.

That little boar was left alone, did he come here by mistake?

Or is the little wild boar's nose as sensitive as Wang Zai's, smelling the aroma of fragrant wheatgrass in the air from a long distance?Can't stand the temptation and come?

Ji Ran doesn't know about these.

What he thinks now is that it is impossible for him and Wang Zai to stay at home 24 hours a day, and the vegetable field must be protected, otherwise the sweet wheat grass will be ruined sooner or later.

Ji Ran had seen crop fields where wild boar herds had ravaged, uprooting them and leaving them in a mess.

It can be said that the herd of pigs set off on an expedition, and not a single blade of grass grows.

If the fragrant wheat grass field is patronized by them, it will definitely be over.

"correct……"

Ji Ran looked at those little pig footprints, and rolled his eyes.

You can have my mind on Xiangmai, but can I also have yours?
Fair enough, right?

……

"Dad, what did Wang Zai find? Did you catch it?" Dou Hua asked with concern when he returned to the house.

"It's a little wild boar. It ran away as soon as we got there." Ji Ran smiled, "You continue to do your work, and Dad will go to the back to work on it. Tomorrow we will eat wild boar stewed vermicelli."

"Eat wild boar stewed vermicelli, can you catch it?" Douhua licked her lips. She had eaten wild boar stewed vermicelli before. It was delicious, and she couldn't help moving her index finger.

"Not necessarily." Ji Ran was not fully sure.

But you have to try it, because of the impressive IQ of pigs, it is still a little wild boar.

In addition to the great allure of the fragrant wheatgrass to herbivores, Ji Ran thinks that the chance of success is still that high.

As long as it comes again, I will give it a good bath with boiling water, and then please put it in the pot to stew.

Ask Gouzi to come and accompany my daughter.

Ji Ran turned on the lamp alone, took a knife, and walked to the warehouse in front.

There are dense tobacco bamboos growing beside the reservoir in that area.

Yanzhu is a kind of wild bamboo in South China. It grows in the wild. This kind of bamboo is as thick as a finger and can grow several meters high.

Smoked bamboo has one characteristic, it is full of toughness.

When Ji Ran and his friends were young, they loved to use them to make their own fishing rods to catch frogs and fish. They were very useful.

In this lush smoked bamboo forest, besides the bamboo, there are also long and short shoots protruding from the soil.

The small smoked bamboo shoots and the spring bamboo shoots of moso bamboo grow at the same time. It is a good wild vegetable, very fresh and tender, even if it is not blanched, it will not numb the tongue.

Ji Ran started eating the bamboo shoots from the first stall.

Stir-fried bacon with small bamboo shoots and boiled fish with small bamboo shoots are two classic local dishes.

The bamboo shoots can also be made into pickles, which are crispy, sour and very refreshing when pickled.

In the kimchi jar in Jiran's kitchen, besides radish, ginger, garlic and pepper, there is also it.

……

'Sharp weapon' deserves the name of sharp weapon, very easy to use.

Just like chopping melons and vegetables, Ji Ran cut one bamboo at a time, one bamboo at a time, three times, five times, two times, and he chopped a lot in a short while.

Cut off the branches, cut off the bamboo tips, tied them with rattan, and carried them to the fragrant wheat grass.

Pick a handful of fragrant wheat first, and then start working.

Ji Ran dug these smoked bamboos into the soil and connected them with wires. With quick movements, Ji Ran created a simple yet solid fence.

With the temporary protective device in place, Ji Ran brought a hoe and a dustpan.

Right next to the fragrant wheat field, roll up your sleeves and dig.

I dug a hole about [-] centimeters deep; I found some dead branches and put them on the hole; spread a layer of leaves;

Sprinkle the pre-picked basil over the top.

The trap is set.

Sit back and wait for the thief to throw himself into the trap.

"Wang Zai, don't scare away our stewed pork vermicelli tonight..."

Inevitably, you have to confess to Gouzi with gestures, otherwise it might be a waste of work.

……

After finishing all this, the time has come to 10:30.

After taking a shower, I took my daughter to bed.

Dou Hua pillowed Ji Ran's arm and quickly fell asleep.

Ji Ran habitually looks at his phone before going to bed.

In WeChat, there are N unread text messages.

Some are irrelevant, and some are mainly Tong Aiyuan's.

As for Ji Ran disappearing in the middle of the conversation, she expressed her understanding that Ji Ran must have something to do temporarily.

But she didn't even say hello to Ji Ran, and she expressed her anger, which was so rude.

In the end, he threatened to come to Ji Ran's house tomorrow, and discuss with him about manners that three-year-olds understand.

Ji Ranhan: "It happened suddenly, I'm sorry, next time I invite you to dinner to express my apology, I'm so sleepy, I'll go to sleep first."

Shut down and go to sleep.

There were no more black moths at night, and I slept soundly until the next morning.

The first time I went to see the trap set up last night, I found that the trap had collapsed, Wang Zai had already arrived, stood beside the trap, tilted his dog's head, and looked down curiously.

"It seems to be a success."

Ji Ran walked over with a smile, took a look into the trap, and immediately smiled even more.
