1256. Lower the oil pan (2/5)

The first weekend after the locust plague was the time for the farmers to gather together that Wang Bo and Christine agreed.

He estimated that the farmers would not come. After all, the locust plague not long ago was too terrifying. Not all farms raised so many chickens, ducks and geese. In addition, the government did not respond in time, so many farms suffered huge damage.

However, as the government organizes agricultural aircraft to release pesticides on a large scale to kill locusts, this locust plague has passed.

Wang Bo called Christine and asked if they would come yet. Christine said they would definitely come. Everyone had agreed that they would come to Sunset Town and would like to thank Wang Bo.

He was confused after hearing this. Why do these people want to thank him?

The answer was revealed on Saturday, and a super convoy of dozens of pickup trucks drove to Sunset Town in the morning and headed straight to the office building.

Seeing this pickup truck fleet, the security guard in the government office building was shocked and thought he had come to ruin the situation.

After Wang Bo saw it from the window, he walked down and he was waiting for everyone here.

The castle is under maintenance and cannot entertain everyone. There are not many farmers coming to attend the party, so there is no need to use the square to open a party, so Wang Bo chose the government building for the gathering location, which has a conference room and a reception hall.

Christan's Ford F150 leads the way. They stopped the car and the security guard came up seriously and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Wang Bo walked out and waved, "Nadian, it's okay, this is my friend, let them come in."

The security guard wiped his forehead and muttered, "I thought I was here to make trouble."

The farmers took their families, totaling sixty or seventy people. Wang Bo and Christine hugged each other, then shook hands one by one, signaling them to go to the conference room, where snacks and drinks were prepared.

Christine said: "We are not in a hurry to open a party, Wang, we must first thank you. This time you have done a good thing for our farms in Otag and Canterbury."

Wang Bo said strangely: "Yes, you said that before, what did I do?"

"Attract firepower, man, Sunset Town successfully attracted firepower in this locust plague and became our shield." A farmer named Batru smiled.

Wang Bo suddenly realized that this was the case, and he knew about it.

The locusts were mass transfer. During their journey south, most of them flew to Sunset Town, and only a small half moved to the surrounding area. This is why he felt so serious when he saw the locust plague scene.

In this way, the small half of the locust swarm did not do anything evil in the South Island, at least they did not suffer particularly great damage like the farms in Christchurch.

At that time, the news reported this incident, and then some experts speculated that the abundant aquatic plants in Sunset Town attracted a swarm of locusts, and there were a large number of birds and birds in the town, forming a super strong food network, which caught the swarm of locusts in one fell swoop.

Some people have begun to doubt that there is any problem with the soil and soil of Luoshen Town. The beef and mutton farmed here are of excellent quality, and the vegetables and grain grown here are prone to harvest. The locusts that are now appearing are also more interested in Luoshen Town.

Therefore, some agronomic experts speculate about the mysterious elements that may contain in the water and soil of Sunset Town, which can have a strong attraction to these animals and insects.

Wang Bo didn't care much about these reports. Anyway, Sunset Town successfully survived this disaster, and it was a blessing in disguise. It is estimated that this batch of chickens, ducks and geese will grow very fast and have good meat.

Until now, some swarms of locusts that have escaped the net have come to Sunset Town one after another. Of course, they come to make food. The purple chickens have a good meal. Recently, they have all gone to the edge to gather and immediately face it when they encounter a swarm of locusts.

Wang Bo smiled bitterly and said, "It turns out that this is the case. It's nothing. Actually, I don't really want to help everyone, so I don't need to thank me."

"Don't say that, Wang, your ranch and farm have really helped us a lot. If the locust swarm is going to my territory, then I'm miserable!"

"With this lesson, I also want to raise some chickens and ducks. If there is another locust plague, I don't have to worry."

"Damn it, I used to rely on the government, but the government was not reliable, so it would be better to rely on each other."

The farmers started to talk, and the conference room suddenly became lively.

The conference room was equipped with simple jewelry. According to the party site, the tables and chairs were arranged in circles, with large and small circles, so farmers could chat together or form small circles to chat.

Drinks such as coffee, juice and black tea were prepared very well. He ordered a lot of snacks and snacks from the baking shop, and everyone could eat and drink while chatting.

From the chat, Wang Bo learned some news that he had not noticed before.

The disaster in the North Island this time was more serious than that in the South Island. The locust plague was actually not as terrible as they thought. The main reason was that New Zealand did not have a relative emergency mechanism. No one had encountered locust plagues and was in a hurry.

The government's response speed has been criticized. Now many regions are protesting the inaction of the Ministry of Agriculture, demanding that the Prime Minister apologize and punish the Ministry of Agriculture.

Wang Bo knows some inside information in this regard. The control of the Ministry of Agriculture is still in the hands of the National Party. In fact, they reacted very quickly, but the ICGF was not strong enough and did not provide them with enough resources to fight against the disaster.

Na Qingyang told him that the ICG League has been trying to find ways to grab some seats in the parliament from the National Party, and also wanted to drive them away from some real power departments. This locust plague became their battlefield.

Politics is always so dirty and disgusting. Whether it is the Workers' Green League or the National Party, they only care about their own interests. Voters are like chamber pots. They mention them when they need them, and avoid them when they don't need them.

The disaster around Christchurch on the South Island was the worst, and the quinoa association had twenty-five farms that went bankrupt as a result.

There are more bankrupt farms in the North Island, and there are probably at least hundreds of them. In the South Island, there are not many bankrupt farms in other areas except for Christchurch. Although there are losses, the losses can be accepted.

Then the farmers in Ao City also arrived. This was invited by Wang Bo and Motak. They all belong to the Quinoa Association, so since we want to organize a party, it is better to organize a larger scale.

Farmers brought beer, and as long as the farms that grow beer and wheat, they will make their own beer more or less.

As there are more people, it will be lively, but it will also become noisy.

Wang Bo is the most popular one in the audience, and there is no doubt that he is the host and the richest and most prestigious person here. Everyone knows that after getting along with him, you can get a lot of benefits.

In this way, he kept entertaining people from all circles, which made him unable to help but laugh at himself: "I will continue to toast everyone with the groom at the wedding."
