Chapter 406 Locust nemesis!
On the arid sandy land with sparse plants and trees, five or six yellow insects were lying on a wild grass and gnawing.
The grass nearby was no longer visible. Apart from the sand and soil and the weeds that were gnawing, there were dense insects lying on the entire ground.
Zhou Yu was wearing leather boots and thick rubber gloves on his hands.
Mira, wearing high heels, was not used to this kind of place and was constantly slapping the locusts that jumped onto her skirt.
Jane Li looked around and then came to Zhou Yu.
"I have prepared pesticides and originally planned to use helicopters to solve these bugs. You can do it if you have a solution."
Zhou Yu looked at the dense insects around him, "Can't you let the helicopter spread pesticides?"
"It's a bit difficult. Although it's more than 20 kilometers away from Xiaokang Village, it's hard to ensure that pesticides will not penetrate through groundwater."
Zhou Yu smiled and said, "It should be fine. Hot water has the effect of detoxification."
When Guo Zheng saw that Zhou Yu wanted to solve the problem by spreading medicine, he said, "The Reshui Lake Group probably would not agree. In addition, such large-scale injections of medicine are not good for farmers nearby."
Zhou Yu looked down at the locusts crawling by his feet, "How could this be solved if it were in ancient times?"
Guo Zheng said: "In ancient times, it was a natural disaster, and it could not be changed by human power."
Li Yuan walked over and said, "Senior Guo Tian said he had no choice but to do this. If he was to deal with it, it would be a disaster for Tianhe."
Zhou Yu thought for a moment, then suddenly said, "I understand! The life of locusts is also fate!"
After saying that, Zhou Yu frowned.
"So even if there are gods, they will not help people deal with these locusts, because the lives of locusts are still fate."
"Then I will definitely not worship gods during the war, right?"
Zhou Yu felt that people who were promoted and made money could also worship gods. If there were such great disasters and disasters, gods would probably not care about it.
Seeing that Zhou Yu was still so uncontrollable, Guo Zheng said, "To solve the locust, we still need to rely on human power."
"I and the others have checked relevant information. The governance methods here are already quite clever, and we have learned a lot."
"It's just that there are so many locusts this time. Firstly, the hot water from the hot water lake nourishes the nearby plants and insects and ants, and secondly, the number of birds of prey near the village has increased, and more than 100,000 people have been brought in."
"And it's Huang Zhen's fire phoenix before. At the beginning of the year, the fire phoenix had been wandering around. Since then, it hasn't rained here."
"After a few times, the local ecology has been damaged."
Guo Zheng looked at Zhou Yu, "I think it's really unreasonable if you don't put some effort into this matter."
Zhou Yu frowned and thought about it. He had a bad memory, so he needed time to recall it.
After thinking for more than ten seconds, I realized that I seemed to be... It was indeed one time when I came here in the middle of the night, because I couldn't stand the cold, Huang Zhen let out the phoenix to keep warm.
I didn't care at that time, but now I suddenly said that it hasn't rained here for almost a year because of the fire phoenix?
Damn it!!
Zhou Yu said in shock: "It hasn't rained here for a long time. Is there still water in the lake?"
Guo Zheng sighed, "There will definitely be no lack of hot water lake."
Zhou Yu thought it made sense, "That's right, there are golden roosters laying eggs now, so you must not be hungry."
Li Yuan said: "It was originally a shortage of water, but later it was said that if you want to buy hot water from a hot water lake, you need to transport several times the hot water to replenish groundwater resources."
"Now, many water tankers pour water to designated locations nearby every day. I heard that they were drawn from the Yellow River."
Zhou Yu said happily: "Yes! This is indeed the case! My broken company has also sent someone to transport water, and there is no shortage of water outside the Magic City."
Not only the Yellow River water, but also the Yangtze River water was mobilized.
Who said that distant water cannot relieve intimate thirst? Isn’t this just relieve it?
Li Yaoshi said: "There is no hurry to do water now. If it really doesn't work, you can transfer water from other places, mainly because of this bug."
"Oh, yes." Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "How many insects can there be?"
Pharmacist Li said, "It's about 100 billion."
Zhou Yu didn't know this specific concept, but he didn't feel much.
"Will you find someone to catch all these locusts?"
Pharmacist Li carefully calculated, "Yes."
Guo Zheng and others couldn't refute it. If they could really take out 100 billion, 100 billion locusts would know who was the locust.
A locust costs one dollar, ensuring that the overwhelming crowds come to catch insects.
And they must be the kind of person who brings their families and brings sacks to pick up money.
Guo Zheng really admired Zhou Yu's little head and asked in a deep voice: "Did you pay this money?"
Zhou Yu shook his head, "My company has given a batch of business now. Now the sales volume is less than one billion a day. In addition, a lot of money-spending and tax revenue, the profit per day is only one or two billion."
"I definitely can't get one hundred billion. Isn't Xiaokang Village rich here? Anyway, you don't have any place to spend money."
Li Yaoshi said: "The money from the village has been given to the province, and the rest is used to build the village. Moreover, Guo Bie used it to lend it to some enterprises before. Now there are IOUs for well-off villages in many places across the country."
"After Guo don't care about the matter, although the village accounts earn tens of billions of dollars every month, it is not enough for 100 billion at present."
With the current assets of Xiaokang Village, you can definitely borrow 100 billion yuan by borrowing money, and it is very easy and quick.
Zhou Yu said: "That 10 billion should be there? I think it's a bit lethal if Guo Ai puts the scarecrow, and now I really don't want to make trouble."
Zhou Yu, who longs for a peaceful life, doesn't want to cause any strange phenomena from the sky anymore.
Li Yuan said: "Senior Guo Tian said that Guo Ai's crow should come in handy."
Zhou Yu shook his head, "It's too troublesome to let the crow catch insects. I think you and I, plus the Hot Water Lake Group, let's take out 10 billion and buy the lives of these 10 billion locusts!"
"What do you think? Ten locusts cost one dollar, even children can catch a lot of these insects. And you don't fear people when you see this thing, just treat it as a little welfare for the poor people nearby?"
Everyone was speechless.
It is obvious that Guo Ai or that crow can easily solve the problem, but now he has to pay for the lives of these locusts.
Guo Song smiled and said, "Just follow him. Anyway, it's better to spend the money in the village, so that people can come to borrow money every day."
Everyone looked at the locusts on the ground that were eating wild grass and wild flowers everywhere, and finally agreed to this matter.
"Okay! Then that's it, let the people from all nearby towns and counties take action and make some pocket money on Saturdays and Sundays."
