Chapter 322: population mix

I have to say that the appeal of TV sets is great.

That night, I saw that it was nearly twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and there was no TV program, and the family was reluctant to part.

During this period, even Chen Ling slowly followed his family and watched extremely fascinated.

Don't watch the TV dramas at this time, some parts are fake, and the special effects are also very rough, but it is much better than the later ones.

Especially Journey to the West is a classic among classics.

No matter which episode or segment you are in, you can watch it, and it will not affect the coherence in the slightest, making it awkward to watch.

That night.

The old man and the others went back to the village.

Chen Ling entered the cave after Wang Susu and his son fell asleep, and sorted out the harvest of this trip to Tiannan City.

Before tidying up, he went to see the docked leopard.

This guy has been eating and drinking in the cave recently. Chen Ling also built a mountain that is neither high nor low, and kept a spacious cave as a nest, which can be said to be very comfortable.

And in order to prevent it from losing its wildness, Chen Ling gradually stopped feeding it.

A stream of water was drawn not far from Leopard Mountain, and some fish were placed in the stream.

In the forest where it lives, there are also some birds and small beasts.

Let it hunt by itself when it is hungry.

Although leopards eat a lot, what Chen Ling is most afraid of is that they eat a lot.

Whether it’s fish or any other meat, whatever you want, guarding the mountains, there is absolutely no need to worry about this problem.

"How can there be a sense of sight of a wildlife reserve."

Chen Ling glanced at the docked leopard who was watching him vigilantly and fearfully at the entrance of the cave, and a strange feeling rose in his heart.

"Not to mention, it doesn't feel bad to divide the free area into blocks of protected land."

"It's just that the current place inside the cave is a little too small. There are too many large beasts, and they can't move."

After pondering for a while, he found that the cave is only more than 100 acres in size, so Chen Ling had to give up this idea first.

Then he walked to the cave, controlled the leopard not to let it move, and slapped it hard.

Experienced the thrill of a big cat.

Only under the frightened and angry eyes of the docked leopard, dodged away.



In front of the thatched cottage, the flowers are red and willows green, and the bamboo forest is green, which is still a beautiful scene like spring in all seasons.

Chen Ling took the lead to come to a large water tank. In this water tank, were the sturgeon seedlings.

When Chen Ling just bought them, they were still half-dead and looked like they were going to die at any time, but they have recovered a long time ago.

He slapped the water tank twice, and they were so frightened that they swam wildly, stirring the water tank with a rustling sound, splashing all over the place.

"This thing is fierce, it has to be raised in a big river."

Chen Ling has now confirmed that the giant strange fish in the reservoir is a giant Chinese sturgeon, but compared to the few sturgeon seedlings he bought, the strange fish in the reservoir has a more sinister appearance, a very hard body, and a dorsal fin with ribs. It has horns, like the spine of a dinosaur, with serrated depressions and protrusions.

On the night he discovered the strange fish in the reservoir, he touched the surface of the strange fish. It was as hard as a scale armor made of hard bones.

This feeling is right.

Because the Chinese sturgeon is a bony fish, the bigger it grows, the rougher and harder its body surface will be.

And when Chen Ling was still chatting, he asked a few ornamental fish owners about Chinese sturgeon.

He also bought some books about fish and looked through them.

Later, I learned that this kind of fish existed in the Western Zhou Dynasty, and not only the Yangtze River, but also other large rivers such as the Yellow River, the Pearl River, and even some large rivers in the northeast and southwest.

However, in modern times, the number has decreased sharply, and they have become extinct in various water systems.

"Come on, let's raise it in the cave first. When the place gets bigger, I'll open up a big river for you."

The fish pond and turtle pond behind the thatched hut have been merged into one big lake by Chen Ling.

Ornamental fish such as goldfish and koi cannot be placed inside.

Because it will be eaten.

Sturgeon seedlings naturally cannot be put inside.

Chen Ling was too lazy to open up any new place to raise fish, so he put them in the lotus pond under the stone arch bridge.

Sturgeon bridge on the left, ornamental fish on the right.

Other gadgets such as little salamanders were thrown into the small canals before and after the hut.

Anyway, now that he has gradually increased his control over Dongtian, he has not had to wash water from the lotus pond for a long time, and he can fill a large tank of water with a single thought.

"Well, it won't work like this, I have to refine it a bit more."

Chen Ling stood by the lotus pond, smelling the fragrance of lotus flowers, and suddenly realized that throwing them in so roughly, waiting for them to reproduce and mutate, seemed a bit passive.

"Koi is an ornamental fish cultivated from carp. Then I will put a few carps in the koi group. The carp in Dongtian has been raised for a long time, and it must be an excellent variety. If it is combined with koi, it will appear. The probability of good seedlings is also higher.”

"For the same reason, goldfish is an ornamental fish cultivated from the mutation of crucian carp, then I will put a few crucian carp in the goldfish. This combination may be more reasonable, and good fish will appear faster."

His idea is 100% feasible.

Goldfish and koi swarms of common color carp and crucian carp appear from time to time. This is an atavism phenomenon.

The high-yield crucian carp and the high-backed crucian carp are also selected and bred through this kind of matching method.

Do what he wants, Chen Ling waved his hand to attract some carp and crucian carp from the lake in the distance, and threw them into the lotus pond.

"Goldfish and koi should be mixed together first, and when they mutate, they will be divided into areas to focus on cultivation."

After    finished getting the fish, he called the parrots over to take a look. Seeing that they were alive and kicking, they were already looking for a place to make a nest. Chen Ling didn't care anymore.

I thought about waiting for a while to raise in the cave, and then finding a suitable time to take it out.

This parrot doesn't expect to do anything, it's just for Wang Susu and the children to play with.



It was the first day of the tenth lunar month just a few days after returning home from the city.

This day is the memorial day of Chen Ling's father, Chen Juncai.

The precious son of Chen Ling's family is four months old on this day.

Little things are very happy all day long.

In the late autumn season, it was still a little foggy this morning, so Chen Ling and his wife put on cotton coats for their son early, and went to the mountain to burn paper with a basket.

Now the life of Chen Ling's family is getting better and better, and Rui Rui is getting older every day.

Chen Juncai will be satisfied even if he has knowledge.

After burning the paper and going down the mountain, there are already twos and threes of people in the open field who have started to plant wheat.

When wheat is to be planted, it is also necessary to plow the ground.

Farming is not just about shedding seeds and waiting for them to come out.

The ground is dry, or you are lazy and don't plough the ground, and the ground is hard.

is often just a few seedlings.

In addition, the roots are not deep, the morning and night on the mountain are relatively cold, and the wheat seedlings will freeze to death.

So during this time everyone has to be busy for a few days.

"Rich and rich get up very early. When will you buy the tractor? It's all on TV. When will you get the tractor?"

When they arrived at the field of Ermao Donkey, the old couple of Ermao Donkey and their three sons were discussing matters in the field with farm implements and pestles. When they saw Chen Ling, they smiled and said hello.

"Don't rush to buy it, I just came back from the city, so I have to stay home with my baby for a few days."

Chen Ling stopped with his son in his arms, and Wang Susu, carrying a basket, also talked to the mother-in-law of the two donkeys.

"Grandpa, I caught so many big grasshoppers, take them back and bake them for Rui Rui."

A little doll came running from a distance, this is the young grandson of the Ermao Donkey family, holding a bunch of grasshoppers, jumping in front of Chen Ling to please.

"Rui Rui just had teeth, can't eat this, you can eat it."

Chen Ling smiled and patted his head. These little devils were very clever. They knew that they had a TV at home. In order to be able to watch TV at home, they tried to please each and every one of them, and they flattered him with things.

Some even stole eggs and ducks from their homes and sent them to him, making him wonder whether to laugh or cry.

is the same as not letting them see if you don't send something.

In fact, he also knows that this is what the parents told them not to go to Chenling Farm to watch TV all the time. The electricity bill is so expensive, which makes these children feel embarrassed.

I just bought the TV two days ago. These dolls ran to Chen Ling's house after school. They didn't go back to eat when it was time to eat. When it was time for dinner, the parents took them home with their ears and necks.

Otherwise, they will be reluctant to leave if there is a wonderful TV to watch.

"Is Uncle Fu Gui going to the mountains for a while? There are a lot of wild things in the mountains recently, and it's a good time to catch them. We photographed a lot of squirrels and green eagles, and Uncle Li Xian almost caught a fox."

The youngest son of the two donkeys also came over and asked.

"Let's talk about it. You have to plant the wheat anyway, so you've been busy for a while."

After Chen Ling knocked out three herds of wild boars, he did not rush to run to the mountains.

Mainly because he wanted to slow down and wait for the female leopard to appear again.

Otherwise, if you always take the dog around in the mountains, it will easily frighten the leopard and dare not come again.

Er Mao heard them talking about the mountain run, so he joined in the fun and said, "Didn't the rich and noble wild boar catch a lot? With the money from the wild boar, you can buy a tractor, right?"

"That's not enough. Only six pigs are enough to buy a tractor. Now a tractor costs at least 5,000 or 6,000 yuan, and I have to add some money."

"What your baby said, even if you add more money, how much can you add? Who can compare with you, and you can beat six pigs at once. Your baby makes money fast, and it makes others very angry."

This year, Chen Wangzhuang has beaten a lot of wild boars. Knowing the price of wild boars sold to the slaughterhouse, without Chen Ling shouting outside, there will naturally be someone who has nothing to do to settle the account for him.

"With you in front, everyone discussed that this year is winter, and when it snows, we will go to the mountains to catch clips and hunt pigs. There have been many pigs in the past two years."

"That's fine, count me in then."

The flood of wild boars in the past two years is actually not the reason why Chen Ling drained the spiritual water from the cave.

Is there any reason for this? There must be, but it is only a small part of it.

The main reason is that since ten years ago, the number of local hunters has gradually decreased, and fewer people went hunting in the mountains. In the past few years, there were frequent mining operations in Wangbacheng, which scared large beasts, such as jackals and leopards.

For various reasons, the natural enemies of wild boars have decreased.

So naturally, there is the current flood.

The wild boar is usually wandering around in the mountains, and it is not very noticeable.

I bump into a wild boar group from time to time, and I don’t think there is anything, as if there are not many wild boars.

But in fact, when they frequently appear near the village and in front of people.

The number of wild boars in the mountains has long been beyond imagination.

That is, this thing is not worth cultivating. There is no market for second-generation wild boars, otherwise Chen Ling will have to do it.



"Rui Rui is a little older, and my parents will be going home in a while. You can go to the mountains less, or it's better to go less."

On the way home, Wang Susu hugged him tightly, slung his arm, and said softly.

The two elders have been here to take care of them for more than half a year, how can they always let their family live in the house of their daughter and son-in-law.

Those who didn't know thought that the two brothers Wang Qingwen let the old man go to their daughter's house regardless of the old man.

It’s not good to spread it out.

Chen Ling has no objection to this. Although he said that my father-in-law’s family living here is better for his health, but some things are not so simple in the life of a person.

"Okay, if you don't want to go, then don't go, I'll stay at home with you and Ruirui."

Wang Susu said that he didn't want him to run to the deep mountains, and it took him a few days to go, which made people feel uneasy.

Chen Ling also understands very well.

It’s fine if you don’t go to the mountains, you can just brew wine at home, raise fish, and make bird cages.

After a while, I will go to Luoma Market and buy some livestock.

Talking to Wang Susu, he suddenly felt the spirit of his son in his arms, and blinked his small eyes to look in one direction.

Chen Ling saw that it was two red-crowned cranes walking slowly from the village.

"Yo, big man, came out again to take my daughter-in-law to eat?"

Chen Ling walked over with a smile, grabbed the big man's wings and led it home: "Let's go, I haven't seen you for a long time, come to my house for dinner today."

Wang Susu saw him like this, and she also picked up the wings of another red-crowned crane, "Don't you always chase them out, why do you want to bring them home again, they always want to steal fish when they go home."

"It's getting cold, so I guess they're going to fly away. I just bought a camera and I have to take it back to our house to take a picture. If it doesn't fly away, I don't know if it will come next year."

Chen Ling said, Wang Susu also thought about it.

Just at this time, the little guy Rui Rui saw his parents and the red-crowned cranes playing and petting, and also stretched out his little hand and hummed to touch the two big birds.

Wang Susu took him over, grabbed his small hand and touched the feathers of the two red-crowned cranes, as well as the red bald shells on top of their heads, giggling, "Tell them Ruirui, remember to come back next year. , it's a big deal, let you eat some fish."

How could the little guy know what his mother was talking about? Listening to the red-crowned cranes and seeing them keep hiding to the side, he laughed and screamed with excitement, scratching his little hands and dragging them. He didn't know where the babies who were still nursing came from. With great strength, he smashed off the two feathers of the big red-crowned crane, so frightened that it ran wildly with its long legs and wings outstretched.

But these two big birds are also two greedy ghosts, thinking about the fish in the farm, and being scratched by the little guy's feathers, they didn't run too far in fear, so they didn't dare to pass.

Chen Ling hooked them up with a little fish, and then went over obediently, and honestly accompanied the family to take pictures.
