Golden Fishing Village

Although he said he didn't ask for any money when planting these fruit trees, a lot of labor was invested in serving them over the past five years.

Ao Muyang said: "How can this be done? The fruit tree seedlings cost nothing. In recent years, just labor and fertilizer have cost a lot of money, right?"

Ao Muyi was pretending to be generous just now. After hearing Ao Muyang's words, he rubbed his hands and said, "How about you do it?"

Ao Muyang settled with him based on the price of one hundred yuan per tree. There were almost a hundred fruit trees in one and a half acres of farmland, so he gave him ten thousand yuan.

The amount of compensation was beyond his expectation. Ao Muyi was very happy after getting it and said: "Yangzi, if you have any problems later, just ask me. Your brother and I have been doing orchards for more than ten years. I dare not say anything about this." If you are an expert, you will definitely know more.”

Ao Muyang nodded and said yes, and went to find Ao Qianying again.

An acre of peanut land doesn't cost much, and Ao Qianying told him: "You don't have to pay me any more, that acre of peanut land is dead."

Ao Muyang asked in surprise: "What's wrong?"

Ao Qianying said depressedly: "Hey, I bought a fake insecticide when I was plowing the ground in April, but I didn't clean up the bugs in the ground. Now it's almost become a nest for ground dogs!"

The scientific name is grub, which is the larvae of the scarab beetle. It has a wide range of feeding habits and harms a variety of crops, economic crops and flower seedlings. It likes to eat freshly sown seeds, roots, tubers and seedlings. It is a worldwide underground pest. , the harm is great.

This pest is widespread in peanut production areas across the country and is particularly harmful, and because it hides underground, it is difficult to deal with once a disaster occurs.

Hearing what Ao Qianying said, Ao Muyang nodded and said: "Okay, Uncle Qianying, I will take back this land. Although the peanuts in the land are gone, you have spent a lot of effort cleaning it up in the past few years. , I’ll give you two thousand yuan, treat it as hard-earned money.”

Ao Qianying is a real person. He used to go fishing to support his family. After there has been no fish to catch in these years, he can only rely on his family's farmland.

Like Ao Muyi, he was timid and fearful. Ao Muyang behaved vigorously after returning to the village. They did not dare to offend Ao Muyang, so as soon as Ao Muyang came to the door today, they returned the land honestly together.

Ao Muyang reciprocated the favor and each paid compensation. Once this matter is spread, it will be heard as much as possible.

After taking back the two pieces of land, he didn't have to worry about the orchard. Ao Muyi was so happy that he took 10,000 yuan from him and took the initiative to help him clean up the orchard.

In this way, Ao Muyang wanted to go to the peanut field. If there were too many bugs, he would have to give up the peanuts and hire someone to plow the ground again and apply pesticides again.

He went home to pick up farm tools and happened to meet Lu Zhizi making a phone call in the village supermarket.

Seeing this, he smiled and said, "You haven't reissued your mobile phone card yet?"

Lu Zhizi shrugged and said, "How do I reapply? I've been busy cleaning up the school these days and have no chance to go to the city business office."

Ao Muyang said: "Which city are you going to? Let's do this. I will take you to the town business hall to apply for a new one in the afternoon. You can bring your ID card and you can get it through China Mobile."

Lu Zhizi smiled happily and said, "That's great. By the way, what are you doing? Are you going to work in the fields on a hot day?"

Ao Muyang nodded and said, "Well, my farmland has been taken back. I'll go do some research."

Lu Zhizi joked: "Are you a former serf singing? You just got the farmland, you are excited and can't wait to do the farm work?"

Ao Muyang said: "Let's go together? Let me show you the hard work of working people."

Lu Zhizi looked at the sun outside, put on a gauze jacket and a sun hat, and then followed Ao Muyang to the fields.

Next to the peanut field was an orchard with shade trees. The general immediately ran to the shade and stuck out his tongue.

Ao Muyang took off his shirt and started sweating profusely. He dug first with a hoe and then with a shovel. After a few digs, four or five large, yellow-white insects with swollen and fat bodies appeared in the soil.

These are the grubs commonly known as ground dog. Judging from their growth density, this peanut field will indeed be destroyed.

Lu Zhizi came up to take a look and frowned: "Wow, what a scary insect!"

Seeing this, Ao Muyang smiled slyly, picked up one and threw it at her.

He thought Lu Zhizi would scream in fright, but Lu Zhizi only took two steps back and was not frightened.

On the contrary, she knelt down and picked up the bug and said, "What are you doing? Grubs need to be dried to make traditional Chinese medicine. It's of no use to me if you give them to me."

Ao Muyang sneered and said, "Huh? I just want to scare you."

Lu Zhizi shrugged and said, "What's there to be afraid of? When I was a child, my cousins ​​used to scare me with snakes and centipedes. I remember one time someone put one next to my bed. A toad with nothing to lose."

"What is a negative toad?" Ao Muyang searched Baidu again, and then his expression changed, "Damn it, isn't this too much?"

It makes him unable to stop swearing, which shows how powerful this thing is.

Lu Zhizi smiled and said: "There are more extreme things, but it's nothing. Anything that can't destroy you will only make you stronger."

As she said that, she picked up the grub and threw it to the general: "Come on, general, add a meal. It can provide you with 14,000 calories of energy. Eat it, it tastes like chicken and is crunchy."

The general sniffed it and swallowed it in one gulp without hesitation, with a look of ecstasy on his dog's face.

Ao Muyang squatted down helplessly, covered his face and said, "I lost!"

Lu Zhizi comforted him in turn: "Do you think it's disgusting? That's not the case. It's very pitiful. As a larvae, it has to live in the ground for at least three to five years, and some even live for more than ten years. Endure the darkness before you climb the branches to seek your mate.”

"Once they find a partner, they can only live for one summer, which means they can fall in love for one summer at most. Think about it, it grew from a child to an old man in the fields. It is not easy to find a partner, but it dies in a hurry after a few days of dating. , how miserable!”

Ao Muyang leaned on the shovel and said, "Let me tell you, why am I so sad?"

Lu Zhizi patted him on the shoulder and said, "That's right, don't be afraid."

She took her hand back, and Ao Muyang suddenly felt something crawling on her neck...

Looking at Lu Zhizi in horror, he shouted: "What did you put in my neck?"

Lu Zhizi looked encouraging: "Don't be afraid, young man, I didn't put grubs on your neck."

Ao Muyang hurriedly slapped: "I believe you are a ghost!"

"It's really not grubs, I released caterpillars. I didn't lie to you." Lu Zhizi showed an aggrieved expression again, looking quite pitiful.

Ao Muyang was so frightened that he peed: "Are you too cruel?"

He shook the bugs off his neck and took a look before sighing in relief: "Damn, it's okay, it's a grub, not a caterpillar."

Lu Zhizi gave him another look of disdain: "Where's the brain? Where can I find caterpillars in such a tight time frame?"

Ao Muyang looked sad. Are these girls acting? Or have you ever learned face-changing in Sichuan Opera? The acting skills are superb online.

He continued to work hard and dug a field, digging out twenty or thirty ground dogs.

There was no point in continuing to dig, so he put it away.

Seeing this, Lu Zhizi joked: "What, you don't want to give up and you still want to scare me?"

Ao Muyang said: "The heart of a villain can judge the heart of a gentleman. I am of use. I will apply for a mobile phone card in the afternoon. When I come back, I will take you fishing. This is a particularly good bait."
