"Oh, these sick ewes are so pitiful, and the lambs are even more pitiful. West Wind, is there any way to cure them?"

Brucella can cause abortion in pregnant ewes, which is a great loss for herdsmen. Premature lambs will naturally be infected with the bacteria and basically cannot survive.

The two returned to the original corral, and Gulidan seemed to be in a heavy mood.

"Gulidan, I can understand your mood. Let me say that now these sick sheep, including pollutants, should be treated harmlessly."

Abortion (premature birth) of sick ewes will produce a large amount of pollutants. These livestock should be culled as soon as possible and disposed of together with the pollutants.

As for the sick yaks, they can be rescued.

"But, since my father is not here, neither my mother nor I can make the decision."

Gu Lidan was very confused. She knew what Qin Xifeng said was right, but her parents were not here, so she did not dare to do it rashly.

"Then let's wait until tomorrow. The corral is sealed and no people or livestock are allowed to come near it. I'll give you some disinfectant and do some environmental disinfection when you get home."

It was already dark after all this busy work.

Qin Xifeng did not force Gulidan. He left some prepared disinfectant for him and then returned to his yurt.

After cleaning and disinfecting, he took out his walkie-talkie and tried to contact Atik.

"Xifeng, why don't you come to dinner?"

The walkie-talkie in Atik's hand was obviously in standby mode. Qin Xifeng only said "hello" and the other party responded immediately.

"Abba, I won't go over to eat tonight. Some of Gulidan's livestock are infected with Brucella, and I helped her with the preliminary treatment..."

Qin Xifeng told Atik that because he had come into contact with infected livestock and pollutants, he had stopped going to his own stable and his parents' yurt in recent days.

When the people from the veterinary station come tomorrow, he may have to help.

"Well, this is a big deal. Don't worry about other things. I'll take care of everything."

Atik suddenly became nervous. What the pastoral area is most afraid of is infectious diseases among livestock, which may cause huge losses to everyone.

The next morning.

Many people came from the township, and then relevant personnel from the county also arrived.

Gulidan's father and eldest brother did not return. They were sent to the county hospital and were initially diagnosed with brucellosis.

"Gulidan, you have done a very good job. Separating healthy livestock from sick livestock is an effective way to block the spread of infectious diseases."

Tieli was the leader of the prevention and control team appointed by the county. He asked Gulidan many questions and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Generally speaking, it is difficult for herdsmen to implement such a standardized disposal process.

"There is another key, how do you determine healthy animals and sick animals?"

"Let me answer this question. I happen to have some Brucella test strips on hand. Yesterday Gulidan asked me for help. I conducted sampling tests on the environment and livestock, and initially distinguished healthy livestock from sick livestock.

....”

Qin Xifeng came over early in the morning to accompany Gulidan. When Tieli asked Gulidan to find out about the situation, he was standing not far away.

After hearing the other party's question, he responded.

"Oh? Where did you get the test paper? Well, I don't mean anything else. I'm just curious. This kind of test paper is rare at the moment. Anyway, there is no such test paper in the county."

Tie Li looked at Qin Xifeng with a smile, indicating that he had no ill intentions.

"It was given to me by a company that I have a cooperative relationship with. In pastoral areas, disinfectant and test strips are always available. But the quantity is very small, and I am too embarrassed to ask others for it."

There is nothing that cannot be said. Anyway, we can bring out the cooperative units.

Qin Xifeng said it very naturally, Tie Li nodded and did not continue to ask.

"Xiao Qin, you and Gulidan go over there to draw blood, okay? We need to make sure that you two are not infected, and this is also our responsibility."

After Tieli finished speaking, he turned around and left. He still had a lot of things to do and the responsibility was not light.

After two days of investigation, it was found that except for Gulidan’s father and eldest brother and some of the livestock at home who were infected with Brucella, no other people or livestock were sick.

This made both Qin Xifeng and Gu Lidan breathe a sigh of relief.

If this disease is detected and treated early, the prognosis is good. They are not too worried about Gulidan's father and eldest brother.

However, the sick ewes, lambs and pollutants have been treated harmlessly.

This made Gulidan and her mother very sad.

The two sick yaks were injected with veterinary antibiotics and need to be isolated for a period of time, so there should be no major problems.

As for the source of this Brucella infection, it has not been found from beginning to end.

"Generally speaking, the peak incidence of this disease is in June and July. If the livestock pens are not cleaned properly, the accumulation of livestock excrement will produce a large number of germs... Let's not talk about this for now, Xiao Qin, you should

You have mastered the basic knowledge of livestock epidemic prevention, right?

Your performance in blocking the epidemic this time is obvious to all. Please go back and publicize more knowledge in this area among herdsmen, please!"

Before Tie Li left, he specifically sought out Qin Xifeng. There were very few herders in the entire pastoral area who had such knowledge. He hoped that Qin Xifeng could play a greater role.

For livestock infectious diseases, prevention comes first. Unfortunately, it is difficult for herdsmen to change their inherent habits.

Perhaps as a local, Qin Xifeng is willing to stand up and teach by words and deeds, maybe it will have some effect... Anyway, it is better than people from the county and township doing this.

"Okay, I'll do my best."

Qin Xifeng nodded, he would have done it even if Tie Li didn't say anything. As for the other party's compliments, he just listened to them.

Tie Li smiled slightly, said no more, shook hands with Qin Xifeng, and turned to leave.

"bite!"

Event: Voluntary publicity of livestock epidemic prevention knowledge.

Choice:Accept

Provide event props: livestock epidemic prevention manual (1 copy), publicity funds (500 yuan).

Do you want to receive it?

Note: Event props will not disappear and will exist permanently.

...

"Is the system going crazy?"

The announcement of the incident this time was equivalent to getting on the bus first and then paying for the ticket. After he agreed to Tieli's request, the system's prompt tone sounded.

Qin Xifeng didn't even have a chance to choose.

But it's not bad to think about it. He will definitely do it anyway. He believes that if his father was here just now, his father would do the same.

"Get the props!"

Although Qin Xifeng was a little unhappy, he immediately received the event props.

Turning around and entering the yurt, he saw an extra bag on the coffee table. When he opened it, he found a booklet and a stack of banknotes inside.

"Abba, please answer me if you hear me."

Qin Xifeng thought for a while and decided to discuss the matter with his father first. Atik had a high prestige in the local area. If the other party came forward to do this, the effect would be better.

So, he grabbed the walkie-talkie and started calling Atik.

Now the father and son use this pair of walkie-talkies as telephones, calling each other whenever anything happens.

"If you have any questions to answer, I'll be at your yurt right away."

Atik's voice came from the intercom, and then Qin Xifeng heard the sound of horse hooves outside. Later, the father and son met.
