Yuan Ning returned to China alone, taking Luan Jia's entrustment with him.The companies in the capital and central China have dedicated personnel to take care of them, so Luan Jia doesn't have to worry about it, just hold a meeting once or twice a month to get a grasp of the basic situation.

Huo Sen's condition was not known to more people, but Luan Jia did not hide it from Yuan Ning.Yuan Ning came with him, so he couldn't just tell Yuan Ning that he wanted to stay and pursue true love.After hearing Huo Sen's situation, Yuan Ning sighed and did not discourage him.After returning to the capital, Yuan Ning went to Luan Jia's company to convey to the company's agent that Luan Jia would temporarily settle overseas.The heads of the important departments of the company are all executives lured back by Luan Jia at a high price. After listening to it, they are very dedicated and say that they don't have to worry, they are there for everything.

Yuan Ning didn't know much about the company's operations, but he was pretty good at judging people, so he felt relieved after getting in touch with them.School has not yet started, and he plans to go to Changcang again to help take care of the pasture.

Yuan Ning rested for the night and set off for Changcang.The pasture has been repaired from the inside to the outside. From a distance, it reveals a sense of vitality. As soon as Yuan Ning got out of the car, Yuan Ning heard bleating sheep, and then a sharp whistle pierced the sky. A ferocious falcon flew down from the clear blue sky.

The falcon has sharp eagle claws, aimed at the hard horns of the lamb and grabbed it.There was great momentum on both sides, the lamb's four hooves were tense, and it forcibly resisted the huge momentum of the falcon's dive, and was unwilling to take half a step back.

One sheep and one eagle were fighting in full swing, the lamb suddenly seemed to sense something, turned its dark eyes to the direction where Yuan Ning got off the car, and ignored the falcon, stepped back quickly, and broke free to grab its horns The Eagle Claw, with both legs swaying, ran straight to Yuan Ning.The falcon flapped its wings and landed on the wooden fence beside it, staring at Yuan Ning, an outsider, very vigilantly.

Yuan Ning was happy, he actually saw some dissatisfaction and anger of being left out in Falcon's eyes!It seems that Xiao Yang has finally made a friend, but this friend expresses his feelings in a special way.

Yuan Ning let the lamb circle around him three times, and asked with a smile what was going on in the lamb ranch.Yuan Ning doesn't care much about other things, mainly in Shuizawa. He asked the people from the Agricultural Research Institute to come over and see if they can make the "mangroves" in Shuizawa grow more luxuriantly.

The lamb said that it was very good over there, and both it and the falcon liked it very much.

Yuan Ning felt happy when he heard Xiao Yang's childish answer. No matter how complicated the outside world is, it is always relaxing in the ranch.This seems to have been deeply rooted in his heart since he was a child.

At that time, he was still young, anxious and uneasy, not knowing how to deal with the unknown and confusing future.Grandpa Xie saw his situation and took him to the ranch. The first time he walked out of the haze, and the first time he opened his heart to his elder brother, it was at the ranch.

The small pasture is like a harbor, allowing him to rest in peace when he is tired and worried.After resting, he can stride forward again.

Yuan Ning smiled and said to the lamb: "In the future, the vegetation on the side of Shuize will grow better, and you will have more new friends." It's like the forest on the side of Yunshan has become a paradise for birds and animals.The pastures and forests gave him peace, and he was willing to build a more suitable home for the lambs.

The lamb circled around Yuan Ning happily again.Yuan Ning quarreled with the lamb for a while, and took it to the pasture.Falcon stood there staring at the backs of Yuan Ning and Xiao Yang for a long time, then let out an annoyed cry, and raised its wings to fly into the sky.

When Yuan Ning walked to the house, the lamb ran away.The saplings planted around the house are growing well, and the branches and leaves are gradually luxuriant. Several old men and middle-aged men in white lab coats are recording something around them. Mark the treasure on the treasure map.

Mr. Lian called the fruit of this tree "jade berry", but many people couldn't help but call it "longevity fruit".The fruit was first brought back by Xiao Hei to help Zhaofu improve his physique, and it does have the effect of prolonging life.In addition, it was watered with spiritual spring water during breeding, which gave it a partial purification ability, which is quite effective in eliminating the filth in the body, so it is priceless outside the market, and only Shuiyunjian occasionally sells it.

And just this "occasional sale" has already accumulated a huge wealth for Yuan Ning.

It's not that Yuan Ning never thought about asking Xiao Hei to find more exotic flowers and herbs, but exotic flowers and herbs are rare, and it is even more difficult to plant them successfully, even if the baby ginseng is successfully planted at Lingquan. Transplanted on a large scale - they are extremely harsh on the soil, climate, and nutritional conditions, and sometimes they have worked hard to grow, and it may not be able to bloom and bear fruit.

Over time, Yuan Ning gave up the idea of ​​cultivating exotic flowers and plants, and only left some seedlings at Lingquan so that he could plant them when he found a place with suitable conditions.

It is precisely because he knows how difficult it is for jade berries to survive, Yuan Ning did not feel that the people from the Agricultural Research Institute were too exaggerated.He strode over and greeted the people of the Agricultural Research Institute warmly.

Upon seeing Yuan Ning, many people stopped what they were doing.The little old man who is the leader is short in stature but hale and hearty, with a pair of eyes shining brightly.The little old man snorted and said, "How come you are so lucky, you can buy live jade berries in any ranch?" The resentment in these words was great.

Yuan Ning is not a stingy person. After cultivating fruit seedlings, he generously distributed some of them to the Agricultural Research Institute. As a result, the entire army of fruit seedlings at the Agricultural Research Institute was wiped out, but Luo Yuanliang planted a batch.There are so many crops in the new pasture right now, how can they not be envious after seeing it?If they didn't know that Yuan Ning would not hide his secrets, they would have suspected that Yuan Ning had hidden some secrets!

Yuan Ning rubbed his nose and tried his best to persuade the little old man and his party to stay longer.The little old man and his team want to study the growth conditions of jade berries. Why doesn't the new ranch need the help of the little old man and his team?Especially in the water pool, he wants to introduce some new plants, but this work can't be done recklessly, or the new plants introduced will become invasive species, and the whole area will be damaged, and the entire water pool will be destroyed!

The people from the Agricultural Research Institute also went to Shuizawa, and they liked the swamp very much, so they didn't care about Yuan Ning's small thoughts, packed up their belongings and went to eat with Yuan Ning.

After lunch, the hard-working women were making mare's milk and cheese, and the strong aroma of milk wafted into the air, coating the inside and outside of the house with an inexplicable warm color.Yuan Ning followed the little old man to see Shui Ze.Summer is coming to an end, and the wings of migratory birds are at their fullest. Some of them are preening their feathers on the water plants, some are standing on the mud bank and strolling leisurely, and some are looking for food on the water surface. They are all diligently preparing for the autumn migration.

Yuan Ning said: "These birds will fly south in autumn, and the water may be much deserted by then."

The little old man said: "It's only lively in autumn. Birds and animals that don't migrate have to start preparing for winter, and they will be more busy hunting and storing food."

The summer in Changcang is dry and rainless, and the silt in the water pool has partially dried up, exposing the path hidden among the grass and bushes.The little old man nimbly and vigorously pushed through the grass and walked deep into the water. The lamb chased him at some point, and darted past them to open the way in front of him.After pushing away a clump of tall aquatic plants, the lamb let out a "baa" and turned to look at Yuan Ning, as if calling Yuan Ning to go over quickly.

Yuan Ning walked towards the lamb lightly, but saw a dwarf deer that was similar to a lamb standing there, staring at Yuan Ning vigilantly with wet eyes, and scurried into the grass with its hooves flying. ran away.

The little old man walked over to look at the hoof prints, and compared the size with the ones he saw just now. He pulled Yuan Ning back to the grass, and said with a smile: "Just wait and see, it will come back by itself in a while."

Yuan Ning was puzzled: "Didn't we scare it away just now?"

The little old man smiled mysteriously.Sure enough, the dwarf deer came back not long after, poked its head in the grass on the opposite side for a while, boldly walked out of the grass, and sniffed the ground, as if trying to sniff out traces of natural enemies.The lamb poked its head out from the grass to stare at the dwarf deer. The dwarf deer was very keen. After realizing the lamb's prying, the whole body trembled and ran away again.

Yuan Ning: "..."

The little old man laughed: "This is a roe deer, we all call it a silly roe deer, because it feels safe when it runs, and will turn around to see if the natural enemies are there. Although it is sharp enough, and it does not run slowly, But it is still easy to be caught by natural enemies."

Yuan Ning was also happy, wandering around in the water with the lamb for a while, met many water birds and small animals, and his mood gradually softened.

In the evening, Hu Ligen came over. Hu Ligen's body got better after being recuperated, but his hair failed to grow back, so he still wore a hat.The summer hat was a bit thinner than the winter one, but it still made his forehead sweat.

In the end, Hu Legen did not sell the ranch to Yuan Ning, but stayed there to re-manage the ranch.He planted a large number of super-accumulative plants there, and the animals in the pasture were distributed to other pastures, leaving only an old hound to live in the pasture with him.Compared to the haggard look when we first met, Hu Legen has now regained the cheerfulness and joy of a man in the grassland. Before he saw anyone, the laughter came first: "Brother Yuan, I heard that you are here, so I came here specially." look at you."

Yuan Ning also greeted him with a smile: "Mr. Hu Legen."

Hu Legen waved his palm, and slapped Yuan Ning heavily on the shoulder: "Your ranch's performance this year is good. You just squeezed into the top ten just after taking over, which made many people's eyes drop to the ground." Although The original owner of the ranch was eager to get rid of it, and handed over the ranch to Yuan Ning in a complete manner, but the ranch had never been in the top ten before that!

Yuan Ning said: "Because Luo Ge found a group of good horses. But Mr. Agula's white horse is the most powerful!"

When mentioning Mr. Agula's white horse, Hu Legen's face twitched.He told Yuan Ning what he saw when he went to the Agula Ranch last time: "It's great, but its preferences are a bit strange. Other horses want to find a mare when they are in their prime, but this one is different. stallion together." Hullegan approached mysteriously, "Guess what I saw when I went there? I saw them mating! Can you imagine? Stallion and stallion!"

Yuan Ning: "..."

Yuan Ning didn't like to publicize his private affairs, so naturally he wouldn't say anything, "Why can't you imagine? Men and men can do it too." He put on a face full of shock, and responded very cooperatively: "I can't imagine!"

Hu Legen said: "It's actually not a rare thing. The mares have poor stamina. They used to do business long distances and often used a large number of stallions. If they happen to be in estrus, they will not run away. Our tribe doesn't like it. After castrating the horse, I thought of a way to collect the liquid from the mare’s secret place and take it on the road. If the male horse is in heat on the way, apply it to the other male horse, so that they can relieve each other.”

Yuan Ning: "........."

Seeing that Yuan Ning was stunned, Hu Legen told the truth contentedly: "However, our generation has never done this before, and I have never seen it with my own eyes. I only knew about it when I was young. of."

Yuan Ning became very interested in the bedtime stories of the prairie people.Growing up listening to this kind of story, aren't you afraid that you will grow crooked in the future?

Yuan Ning stayed with Hu Legen for a meal and stayed overnight, and accompanied Hu Legen to the northwest to see the pollution control situation early the next morning.

Pollution spreads radially around the pollution source, and the affected area is very large, but the degree of severity varies.Hullegan's ranch is quite unlucky because it is very close to the source of pollution, and the pollution of soil and water sources is quite serious.Fortunately, the ban in the capital has already been issued, and more than half of the pesticide factories have been ordered to suspend operations for rectification, and the pollution has not deepened for the time being.

Pollution is easy and difficult to control.Hyperaccumulative plants have taken root in the pasture, re-greening the land that had languished for several years.Yuan Ning knew that it was impossible to eradicate the pollution overnight, but it was still a bit uncomfortable to see the plants and trees that used to live here drooping their heads.In the past, it was Mr. Zhang or Zhang Xiuyan who helped solve the problem. It was a long time before he saw the follow-up situation. What Mr. Zhang and Zhang Xiuyan told him and showed him were all good sides. He never had to worry about hardships.

Yuan Ning walked to the bank of the river to communicate with the hyperaccumulator plants newly grown on this land.The so-called super-accumulator plants are very strong in absorbing certain mineral elements, some of which can be hundreds of times—or even hundreds of times—more than ordinary plants.Ordinary plants may take decades or hundreds of years to absorb the residual pollutants in the soil, but they can greatly shorten the time required.

Yuan Ning has a good understanding of this aspect, so he immediately proposed hyperaccumulator plants that can remove arsenic pollution in excess.It's just that the soil has been damaged, and it will not take a while to restore it.

Just as Yuan Ning was thinking, a ranch worker ran over and said that someone was looking for Hu Legen and Yuan Ning, who came from the city, and seemed to be the newly appointed leaders here.The previous job was dismissed because of negligence, and this person was temporarily sent to take over a lot of mess. I heard that he has been very busy!
