1242. The Cherry Thief (3/5)
Chapter 1258 1242. The Cherry Thief (35)
After understanding the principle, Wang Bo knew that although this kind of ant-killing drug does not have the "extermination pleasure" when it is used, its killing principle is actually very "vicious".
No matter where the queen is hiding in the nest, a worker ant carrying only a small amount of medicine will shoot at the queen like bullets; the final result is that the entire ant nest is completely wiped out, and no small ants can come out. Messed up.
Wang Bo talked to his parents while having dinner, and Bo's father and Bo's mother shook their heads.
Bo's mother said: "Forget it, Xiao Bo, your father and I will put more mothballs in the house, let's stop using this decapitating queen ant poison."
Bo Dae also said: "Yeah, this thing is too offensive, the baby is pregnant, it's not good to do such a thing, it's a copycat."
In Eva's view, eradicating ants has nothing to do with her children, and she can't understand the Chinese attitude towards life, although she has learned the saying "the way of heaven is good for reincarnation".
Time entered May, autumn came, and the farms in Sunset Town began to usher in the harvest season.
The farm has planted a lot of crops such as green corn and wheat, and it has achieved a bumper harvest at the beginning of this year. Looking at the lush farmers on the farm, Lao Wang is in a good mood.
But the most valuable thing on the farm is not the dealer, but some fruits, such as white cherries.
On the night of early May, Wang Bo was just about to fall asleep when he received a call from Motak, the leader of the farm, saying that someone had come to steal white cherries.
Hearing the news, Lao Wang hurriedly called his subordinates and ran to the cherry field in a hurry.
The thief acted very quickly. When he looked through the sand table, he had disappeared without a trace, but his vigilance was not activated. From this point of view, it seems that it was not a person who stole the cherries.
Wang Bo took Atulu and others to the planting field. The night was dark and the moonlight was like water. Looking at the entire cherry field, he said, "I remember that in our hometown, cherries are harvested in April and May."
Atulu said: "That's right, isn't it April and May?"
The handsome Mexican boy who came to help gave him a blank stare, and said, "The boss's hometown is in the northern hemisphere, where April and May are spring, and here it is autumn."
Wang Bo nodded. It is indeed strange that white cherries can wait until autumn to mature, but this has something to do with the timing of his planting.
He grows Rainier white cherries, a fruit that is almost famous in high-consumption circles around the world.
The yield of white cherries in New Zealand is not high, and because of their sweetness and brittleness, their skins are relatively fragile. During the process of picking and transportation, they are prone to loss, resulting in defects in appearance and affecting prices.
Because of this, the sales price of plump and undamaged New Zealand white cherries in some countries and regions can be calculated in "pieces". .
The reason why the output is not high is mainly because white cherries have high requirements on the production area.
New Zealand has six soil zones, brown soil, dark brown soil, black soil, gray soil, dark gray soil and forest soil.
White cherries are suitable for living in forest soil, but this kind of soil is rare in reclaimed farmland, so there are very few farmlands suitable for growing white cherries.
Of course, white cherries do not have to grow in forest soil. They can survive in ordinary soil, but they will bear few fruits, and they are prone to produce defective products. White cherries grown in ordinary soil are not very sweet and watery.
Wang Bo's farm is different. The white cherries here are growing very well, and because he is a transplanted cherry tree, it was already in the fruiting stage before, and it will bear fruit in the first year after planting on the farm.
He bought these cherry trees at a low price. The original owner didn't know the delicacy of white cherries.
Wang Bo just wanted to plant cherries last year, so he took over from him.
This year, these white cherries have grown very well, and the fruit has been luxuriant so far, which is also the reason why thieves are attracted to come.
The white cherry plantation area was surrounded by a fence, but the thieves were still unstoppable. Near the southwest corner of the fence, a cherry tree was destroyed.
After checking the cherry grove, Wang Bo asked Motak, "Can't you see the thief from the surveillance?"
Motak smiled bitterly: "Our cameras only monitor the gate of the farm and a few hidden areas, so we can't see the thief."
There weren't many white cherries stolen, but they were expensive, so losing any of them was enough to make people feel distressed.
Wang Bo said: "In this way, if I leave the strong man here and let him guard the cherry grove for you, there will be no more problems, right?"
As soon as he heard that he could bring the strong man, Murtak immediately smiled: "Of course, of course, boss, there must be no problem."
Wang Bo was still very concerned about these white cherries, if the queen hadn't been pregnant, he would have brought the queen here too.
Early the next morning, Wang Bo brought his young man over before going to work, and then he went to the cherry orchard to see that there were fewer fruits on the cherry trees in the corner.
This is very abnormal, and he became vigilant in his heart, could it be Mortak or one of his peasants who did the trick? He remembered very clearly that when he looked at it last night, there were more fruits on the cherry trees here than now.
As a result he let the young man out of the car, and the strong man sniffled, and then spun around in the cherry orchard.
Wang Bo thought it would gain something, so he waited patiently.
But he and Mortak waited for a long time and didn't see what the strong man found, so he lost his patience and wanted to go to work.
Seeing him turn around and want to leave, the strong man suddenly opened his mouth and screamed, and ran towards the green corn field next to the cherry grove while screaming.
Seeing this, Wang Bo stared angrily. The bastard Zhuang Ding had discovered something before, but he wanted to stay here for a while, and he was hesitant to show his discovery.
This would be to see that he was leaving, and the strong man didn't want him to leave, so he took them to see its discovery.
The white cherry tree doesn't grow very high, and the green corn next to it is even shorter. The strong man got into it all at once, and a few fat wild birds came out of it.
There are two types of these wild birds. One is larger, about half a meter long, covered with beautiful purple feathers, with scarlet beak, top of head and legs. It has two powerful long legs and runs fast.
There is also a kind of wild bird that is gray-brown in size and smaller in size, but it runs very fast, and they are nimble, crawling and jumping up and down in the cherry trees and corn fields, and the strong men can't catch them for a while.
When Wang Bo saw these wild birds, he shook his head helplessly, and said, "Damn it, aren't they the thieves who stole the white cherries? Purple water chickens!"
