Super Orchard

Chapter 99
With more than 100 application forms, Shen Yangguang and Jiang Xiaoxi sat in the office and were busy until the evening before sorting them out.

In addition to the [-] positions originally recruited, Shen Yangguang found that there were still many people who filled in their specialties such as raising pigs and chickens. positions in the farming department.

These few employees of the breeding department were selected on the registration form who were willing to adjust and good at breeding. So far, all the newly recruited employees have been confirmed.

Among them, there are 20 people in the operation department, ten people in the fruit wine department, ten people in the engineering department, five people in the breeding department, ten people in the security department, plus the communication room and the personnel department, there are a total of 57 employees!This is not a small enterprise in the entire county.

On the second day, all the newly recruited employees started to go to work. Under the leadership of the old employees, the new employees in each department began to familiarize themselves with various tasks. Among them, the employees in the fruit wine department were brewing wild wine under the leadership of Guo Fugui. Cider drinking training.

Shen Yangguang wandered around the orchard as usual, and when he came to the newly planted Huanglong orchard, he saw Wang Chunmei and the others looked a little dignified. He walked over and saw that a half of the root of a Huanglong fruit was eaten by some animal.

Seeing Shen Yangguang coming, Wang Chunmei whispered, "Boss, this Huanglong fruit seems to have been eaten by a hare."

Every huanglongguo sapling is very precious, and it will be even more valuable when it bears fruit. Shen Yangguang didn't want to make any mistakes, so he quickly asked, "How do you know it was eaten by a hare?"

"The scars on it look very similar." After speaking, he brought Shen Yangguang to the wall of the shed, pointed to a hole on the ground that was bigger than a fist, and said, "And this hole was dug by a hare."

Rabbits in China rarely make holes, and the holes they make are generally shallow. Shen Yangguang remembers that the depth of the foundation of this greenhouse is only about one meter, which happens to be the limit depth for local hares to make holes.

Suddenly, with a whoosh, a gray figure quickly slipped into the hole from under the feet of everyone, and disappeared without a trace. Now everyone has fully confirmed that it was the hare who did it.

Walking to the open space on the west side of the shed, after leveling the grass with a stick, Shen Yangguang unexpectedly found several wild rabbit holes in a small place, and there would be a movement in the grass far away from time to time.

He knew that there were wild rabbits in this small valley, and Dumb caught one last year, but he didn't expect that there were so many wild rabbits here!
Shen Yangguang suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had known about it, he would have dug the foundation of the greenhouse deeper, but it was too late to say these things now, the greenhouse couldn't be demolished and rebuilt, right?
There is no better way at the moment, Shen Guangguang called Niu Neng, and asked him to lead people to block all the rabbit holes near the greenhouse, and then patrol around the greenhouse. If any potholes are found, they should also be filled and blocked to prevent the rabbits from entering The greenhouse gnaws at the fruit trees.

This kind of method of covering the ground and covering up the soldiers can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, so Shen Yangguang decided to carry out a campaign of "removing rabbit disasters and ensuring production".

There are many varieties of hares, except for a few protected species and where hunting is prohibited in places where hares are rare, the rest can be hunted, especially where the population is too large to cause disasters.

Shen Yangguang summoned the two generals Hengha, led Huang on the left and captured Cang on the right, and started hunting in the vast valley west of the greenhouse.

Dumb and Agua, who have always been lazy, have finally come in handy now. You must know that the earth dog and the goshawk are both good at catching hares.

Shen Yangguang pointed to the black hare droppings scattered on the grass, and babbled again. Regardless of whether he understood or not, he sniffed the hare droppings a few times, and jumped into the grass, like a horseman started to gallop.

Agua, on the other hand, dismissed the black feces. It didn't respond to what Shen Yangguang said, and still stood leisurely on Shen Yangguang's shoulder doing nothing.

Shen Yangguang was speechless towards this lazy man, holding Agua in both hands, aiming its head at the hare feces, and throwing it forcefully into the sky.

Agua was forced to take off, and after circling in the sky, he landed on Shen Yangguang's shoulder again, as if nothing happened.

After that, Shen Yangguang threw Agua up again, and Agua also spun around in the sky before falling down. He didn't work hard at all, and didn't even use his strength.

After a while, Dui, who had always been full of energy, rushed back, put a dead hare in his mouth at Shen Yangguang's feet, panted with his big tongue, and looked at Shen Yangguang triumphantly.

Shen Yangguang had been prepared for a long time, put the hare into the net bag, and took out a piece of jerky and put it into Ah-Dai's mouth. This kind of jerky has been processed through a series of adjustments, although the freshness and nutritional value may not be as good as it is. Fresh meat is served, but the taste is nothing to say, both Duan and Duan like it very much.

Seeing that Ah-Dai was eating jerky but he didn't have it, Ah-Dai immediately became anxious and wanted to jump down to snatch the food. Ah-Dai had already understood what Ah-Dai was thinking. Nearly, he immediately closed his dog's mouth and swallowed the jerky, then continued to work wagging his big tail.

Seeing this scene, Agua immediately stopped being lazy, soared into the sky with a sound of "rectification", looking for the hare everywhere.

Under normal circumstances, goshawks in nature would also feed on hares, and Agua has his own hunting skills, and he can catch hares even faster and more accurately than Dumb!
Not long after, the Second General Hum Ha brought back a hare just like a competition, and Shen Yangguang already had several fat hares in his net pocket.

Some of the hares are relatively small, and they probably haven't grown up yet. The breeding time of hares is spring and autumn, which happens to be early summer, so these small hares should have been born two months ago.

The difference is that the hares brought back by Ah-Dai have already been bitten to death by it, and A-gua is basically holding the neck or back of the hares because of its small mouth, and the hares are also injured and did not die immediately.

Looking at the few injured hares in the net bag, Shen Yangguang suddenly thought that since there are so many hares, why not try breeding them?
Thinking of this, Shen Yangguang picked up a few dead hares and shook his head vigorously, picked up the undead hares and nodded vigorously, and put a piece of jerky the size of a palm next to one of the almost intact hares. Said: "Catch the living!"

Dumb and Ah Gua seemed to be able to understand, and all the hares caught afterwards were alive, the only difference was the degree of injury, and most of them had almost no injuries.

For a whole morning, Dumb and Agua caught a total of more than ten hares. Shen Guangguang put the intact hares in the long-abandoned pigsty in front of the house, and the rest of the hares were prepared to be a big meal.

After lunch, Shen Yangguang summoned the staff of the engineering department to prepare to build a large-scale hare farm. The specific location was to the north of the wild grapes, which was where the future apple orchard would be.

Raise wild rabbits in the apple orchard, as long as they can provide some food in winter, the hares will not dig holes to eat apple tree roots, and they will not eat apple tree trunks on weekdays. How can fresh weeds taste better than bark?

The entire apple orchard is about 400 meters long and 200 meters wide, with a total area of ​​120 mu. Such a large area is not because Shen Yangyang wants to carry out large-scale breeding, but mainly because of the habits of hares. If the living density is too high, hares will grow They will kill each other to ensure that the population density is maintained within a reasonable range.

It is also very simple to build a hare farm. Since hares can survive in the wild in winter, there is no need to build a greenhouse, but a simple fence is enough.
