Immortality: Raise an ant queen and add some immortality

Chapter 137
"Master Qin came up with a very good way to use ducks to deal with locusts. However, the chickens and ducks we raise in the village are limited, and together they are only a few hundred. It is a drop in the bucket to deal with the huge swarm of locusts. If possible, we would like to You need to rent or buy Mr. Qin's batch of ducks. As long as our Daoyuan Village stops the locust plague, it is equivalent to cutting off the way for the locusts to enter Shuangfeng Village, and your village will naturally no longer need ducks."

Tang Jingyuan had obviously done enough homework before coming.

"Don't you buy ducks everywhere? Patriarch Tang doesn't need to buy mine, right?"

Qin Niu was deliberately testing.

Because they bought the ducks early, not only were the supplies abundant at that time, but the price was very low.

The three thousand ducks we got have been eating the same thing every day because they have enough food and have eaten nutritious locusts these past few days.They are growing rapidly.

Now that the locusts in Shuangfeng Village are almost eliminated, it is time for these ducks to move their positions and look for food elsewhere.

However, because they are only half-grown ducks now, it is difficult to sell them at a high price.

Qin Niu will not rush to take action.

It would be very suitable to rent them out and earn money by eating and drinking.

"Oh, forget it! Our village lacks knowledgeable people like Mr. Qin. Seeing you buying so many ducks, we reluctantly gathered the chickens and ducks in the village to deal with the locusts. The effect was not good. In this way, everyone will be even less willing to spend a lot of money to buy ducks.

A few days later, we saw that you used a large number of ducks to prevent locusts from entering the village, and the effect was excellent, and you successfully stopped the locust plague. Then we thought about following your example.But it was too late to act at this time.

Pingshui is a famous duck producing area.

It belongs to the lake area, with flat terrain and sufficient water. Many local people raise hundreds or thousands of ducks.

But yesterday we sent people to rush there at high speed, not to mention ducks, not even a goose.

They were all bought up.

I asked several big farm owners and they all said that it would take at least more than a month to have ducklings for sale.As for the half-grown duck, it will take at least three months. "

Patriarch Tang felt that in this matter, he was lagging behind others because of his backward concepts and insufficient wisdom.

This is very disadvantageous.

Also very aggrieved.

"I sympathize very much with what happened to Daoyuan Village, and I also understand your current difficulties. I have not thought about selling these ducks for the time being. I bought them back to help Shuangfeng Village eliminate the locust plague. I am with you, the Tang family of Daoyuan Village. It can be considered a deep fate. This house was built by the Tang Fang brothers, and I am familiar with the Tang Bin brothers and sisters. Now that you have asked me for help, you must not do this favor.

Just rent my three thousand ducks to you, Daoyuan Village. "

Qin Niu was happy to help Daoyuan Village.

If the locust plague in Daoyuan Village cannot be stopped, Shuangfeng Village will never have peace.

If the city gate catches fire, Chiyu will definitely be affected.

"Thank you, thank you! Thank you so much, Mr. Qin! This duck doesn't know how to rent?"

Patriarch Tang seemed very happy when he heard that Qin Niu was willing to rent the duck to Daoyuan Village.

With such a large duck army, it can definitely become a powerful weapon against locusts.

"Uh... this is..."

Qin Niu looked deep in thought. It was too shameful for him to open his mouth to save his face.

"Master Qin is willing to rent ducks to our Daoyuan Village out of love. You can charge whatever you want, no need to worry." Tang Jingyuan said.

"Ten ducks can be rented for a penny a day. Is it ok, Chief Tang?"

Qin Niu quoted a price.

This is for the sake of brothers Tang Caixian and Tang Fang.

Humans, after all, cannot escape the four words of human nature and sophistication.

"Okay, absolutely okay. Thank you Mr. Qin for taking care of me."

Tang Jingyuan was actually worried about Qin Niu Shishi opening his mouth.

The price quoted now is really not high.

The daily rent for three thousand ducks is three hundred pence.

If it were normal times, no one would rent it. But in these extraordinary times, even if the rent is one or two silver a day, there will be people renting it.

"Since Chief Tang accepts it, I will explain some things clearly in advance to protect the interests of both parties."

"Master Qin, please speak!"

"The duck is rented to you, and I have the right to take it back at any time. Of course, I will definitely greet you in advance and discuss it carefully before taking it back. But I must explain in advance that I have the right to take it back at any time. You can also return it to me at any time. "

"no problem."

Tang Jingyuan nodded in agreement.

"Second, if the duck is rented to you, you must take good care of it. If it dies or is lost, you need to compensate according to the price. The current duck price is one price per day, and compensation can only be calculated based on the market price on that day." "Absolutely."

"I only have these two, nothing else. You can send someone over now to take away the ducks."

What Qin Niu said were the most basic conditions.

"Tang Bin, go back to the village immediately and ask some people to bring cages to get the ducks." Tang Jingyuan was an old fox and did not let Tang Caixian leave.

He knew very well that Tang Caixian had a lot of credit for the smooth conversation with Qin Niu this time.

She didn't need to say anything, she just had to sit next to him, and Qin Niu would naturally give her some sympathy.

"Master Qin, this is a small gift from me. I would like to ask you to teach us how to use these three thousand ducks."

"There is no need to give money, just think that I have a good relationship with your village! I have observed the topography of your village. The locusts swept in from the north. The topography of your Daoyuan Village is like a long and narrow pocket. With the above There is a mountain pass at the junction of Hecun, with a river on the right and a mountain. On the left is a farmland and a road. Locusts are afraid of water and will not cross the river.

Setting up a buffer zone there similar to the one we set up in Shuangfeng Village should have a very good effect.

And you have a great advantage. You can divert river water to fill several fields at the entrance of the village with water, turning it into a vast ocean.However, a field needs to be left in the middle for locusts to settle.

Ducks move quickly in the water and can hunt locusts more efficiently.

Diverting water to flood part of the low-lying land can also effectively reduce the width of the Ducks' defensive line. "

Qin Niu talked eloquently and the strategies he told were greatly appreciated by the head of the Tang clan.

This young man is not simple.

"Thank you Master Qin for your advice! If my Daoyuan Village stops the locust plague this time, I will never forget Master Qin's kindness."

The Tang clan leader cupped his hands and thanked him.

"You're welcome."

Qin Niu waved his hand calmly.

"Then I won't disturb Mr. Qin and say goodbye!"

The purpose of this trip was achieved, Tang Jingyuan stood up and left.

Tang Caixian, however, sat still.

"Cai Xian, it's rare for you to come here. It's better to talk to Mr. Qin for a while. I'll go back first." The clan leader is an experienced man. When he saw that she didn't get up with him, he naturally knew what she was thinking.

I really wish that Tang Caixian and Qin Niu could continue their good story.

"I will go back to the village with my brother later. The clan leader is busy first!"

After seeing off Patriarch Tang, she looked at Qin Niu with her bright and hopeful eyes.

"Master Qin, I haven't been able to see you these days and I miss you very much. I just know that your identity is different from before, so I don't dare to come and disturb you."

"In the eyes of outsiders, my identity is different from before. But Miss Caixian is not a common person, so why should I care about Qin's false reputation! If you are willing, you can come and play often. I am usually busy and rarely at home, but Xiaoqing He is at home every day."

Qin Niu said pleasantly to her.

"Haha, you are indeed the young man I fell in love with back then. When your house is completed, I will send you some flowers and plants to add to the scenery!"

She turned to look at Xiao Qing who was busy outside the house.

But didn't say anything.

"By the way, I wonder how you think about what I mentioned to you last time?"

She was talking about proposing marriage.

"I won't consider getting married!"

When Qin Niu said this before, the Tang family might think he was poor and arrogant.

If you say this now, it's completely different.

What is revealed is absolute strength.

"I can marry you too!"

She blushed, lowered her head and said.

"Miss Caixian, if I say something bad, please don't take it to heart."

Qin Niu looked at her seriously.

Her pretty face turned a little pale, and she already expected that Qin Niu might reject her.

At this moment, she felt humiliated and lost.
