In my days as a farmer

The morning light breaks, the birds chirp, and the morning of this village on the edge of the mountain forest is peaceful and serene. Before the sun starts to shine, there is even a layer of water vapor lingering on the ground.

If this scene fell into the eyes of urbanites, they would definitely admire it, but in the eyes of Shen Wen, who was also born in the countryside, it was nothing more than ordinary.

The small brick house is located in the northernmost part of Xiaojin Village, so even if you arrive at Xiaojin Village by inter-village bus, it will take more than half an hour to get here.

Walking for half an hour is not a problem for Shen Wen, but he is now carrying a retired police dog with a broken leg. In order to take care of the wounded, his walking speed cannot be too fast.

Stop and go, it took nearly an hour for one person and one dog.When Shen Wen stood in front of the small brick house with his pet dog, the door of the small brick house was closed and the courtyard was quiet.

This is also normal, it is not yet seven o'clock.

If it was summer, it must have been lively by this time, but now Xiaojin Village has gradually acquired the taste of winter. Around seven o'clock, the temperature here does not reach double digits.

At this time, the quilt is the best choice.

Shen Wen shrugged at Xuanfeng who was sitting next to him sticking out his tongue, looked at the quiet surroundings, and then stretched out his hand to untie Xuanfeng's traction rope.

Although the shackles were loosened, Whirlwind didn't act too violently. It just stood up and shook its fur, so that the fur on its neck that had been crushed by the collar became fluffy again, and then sat down quietly again.

Seeing this, Shen Wen pursed his lips, patted Xuanfeng's head, took it to a field ridge and sat down.

Now this season is not the irrigation season, sitting on the ridge of the field with your feet hanging in the ditch that originally held the water flow is quite comfortable and comfortable.As soon as Shen Wen turned his head, he saw Xuanfeng lying down beside him, quietly watching a few dragonflies flying around in the field.

This is not the case with the previous whirlwind. If it encounters the previous whirlwind, no dragonfly can leave its face alive.The whirlwind's jumping ability is very strong, and it is good at ambushes. Even a highly agile fly can be swooped down by it, let alone a larger dragonfly or butterfly.

Although it is a small female dog, Whirlwind Wang graduated from the police dog school with the No. 1 result, overwhelming countless male dogs.

Her father was the king of dogs back then, and her mother was also an excellent search and rescue dog. When Cyclone was still a puppy, everyone in the army had high hopes for him, which can be seen from the dog's name.

And Whirlwind did not live up to this expectation. In the case of a gender disadvantage, its bite ability is no less than that of male dogs, and its endurance, obedience, and olfactory sensitivity are even more outstanding among dogs.

Therefore, it was transferred to the border anti-narcotics brigade just after graduation, and was rewarded for its many meritorious deeds. It can be said that it grew and studied very smoothly all the way, until it was retaliated by criminals this time.

He didn't know exactly what happened because of confidentiality requirements, but the choked voice and the extremely suppressed growling and anger when the younger generation called him had already revealed a thing or two.

At that time, the young man said that even if he was punished for violating discipline, he would take revenge. One can imagine how bad the situation is.

Shen Wen calmed him down, and then he went around to visit in many ways, and even asked the old squad leader for help, and finally succeeded in taking the whirlwind out.

He had seen Whirlwind twice, one was when it was born, and the other was when it tried to run on all fours in the middle of the night despite the pain of its injured leg.

He used to be a strong contender for the king of dogs, but now he has to rest several times even after walking a few kilometers.

Let alone bystanders, even Cyclone himself can't stand the gap, but...

"It's okay." Shen Wen reached out and held the dog's head, "You still have three legs, a keen sense of hearing, outstanding bite and judgment, and sufficient physical strength, and most importantly, you are still young. "

"People's middle-aged dogs can be successful in re-employment, and I believe you can too."

"Woo..." Heibei shook his suppressed ears, and rested his head on his good front leg in some frustration.

Seeing this, Shen Wen reached out and massaged its three legs.Whirlwind has good physical fitness, but changing from walking on four legs to three legs will cause a sudden change in the force on the legs, which will bring extra burden to the muscles and nerves. Massaging the dogs can effectively prevent them from cramping.

"Hey, isn't it comfortable? Your mother also liked me to press it." The young man grinned and said with some nostalgia, "It's also a traditional art."

Whirlwind Wang snorted, then saw it shaking its ears, and turned its head to look into the distance.Seeing this, Shen Wen let go of the hand touching the dog's leg, and followed its gaze. After a while, he saw a figure of a person and a dog running towards him.

The other party seemed to have been running for a while, and the dog that was being led to run sticks out its tongue, and the breath is full of white mist.

Shen Wen immediately stood up and walked quickly towards the person who came. He greeted the person a little cautiously: "Mr. Xun, hello."

"Hello." Xun Yao stopped and nodded at him, took the rice instead of running, then retracted the leash in his hand a little, so that the curious rice stayed beside him when he saw the whirlwind, "Sorry, I When I went out today, I closed the door, and next time you come, just call the mobile phone number at the top and bottom of the sign."

"No, no, I'm here early." Shen Wen waved his hand immediately, and as he spoke, he tied the leash around the whirlwind's neck and followed Xun Yao towards the small brick house, while looking at the little brick house in surprise. The hairy belly of the Border Collie.

From the perspective of a professional trainer, this dog is obviously well-raised, its hair is smooth and shiny, and its eyes are flexible, clear and confident. Although it is very curious about them, it stays where it is under the restraint of its owner. It is obedient Not bad.

Shen Wen's eyes reflexively went around to the dog's lower body, and then looked back.Well, the hair is too long and the belly is hidden, but he remembered that Mr. Xia said yesterday that all dogs in their family are male dogs that have not been neutered, and this one should be the same.

It's a good dog, but it's a bit fat. If you want to train it, you must first reduce its body fat, otherwise it will easily put pressure on the knee joint.Losing weight requires the cooperation of the owner. He has to convince the dog owner to control its diet...

"Woof!" Rice's ears twitched, and her curious eyes shifted from the bitch walking with one leg crossed in front of her to Shen Wen, who barked warningly.

It always feels like this human is thinking something that makes the dog unpleasant.

Shen Wen immediately showed a smile, with a slightly exaggerated expression, this was to let the dog with poor eyesight accurately read his friendliness.After seeing the dog relax a little, he turned to Xun Yu and asked, "Is Mr. Xun taking it for a morning run? How many meters did it run?"

"Two kilometers." Xun Yao said while unlocking the iron gate, "Jogging, it needs to lose weight."

Instructor Shen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. It is a good thing that the master has this awareness, and his work will be much easier afterwards.Shen Wen also went to the dog school for a period of time after retiring. At that time, he was afraid of meeting the kind of dog owner who thought that the dog was cute if he was fat.

He's even had complaints about trying to persuade owners to put their dogs on a diet, so it's great to have a reasonable owner who is willing to take the initiative.

But having said that, since the owner has this awareness, how can this dog be so fat?

This thought was only fleeting, and his attention quickly shifted to the three big dogs that greeted them at the door, among which Shen Wen was most concerned about the mixed-breed dog named Mi Li.

As a former police dog trainer, I have to say that it is their instinct to want to train a dog with excellent qualifications.

In recent years, there has also been a voice in the field of breeding that dogs have undergone genetic deterioration during the human breeding process, so it is necessary to introduce wolf blood to "optimize".Although Shen Wen is not interested in doing this kind of experiment, he is really curious about the difference between mixed-breed dogs and ordinary dogs, especially in terms of combat effectiveness.

"Wow!" Sensing the young man's gaze, Mi Li raised her head and called out to him, flicking her tail twice in a friendly way.

It's obviously a sub-adult dog, but this dog seems a little... delicate?

If it knew what Shen Wen was thinking, it would probably cry aggrievedly.As the smallest dog in the family, Mi Li has always been loved by everyone. It has been picked up for a long time, and because there are too many big brothers on its head, this dog seems to be a bit bitten. Spoiled.

Ahem, it's not that it hasn't challenged the authority of Big Brother, but every time it is beaten into a dog meat pie, the fighting power of Big Brother is too strong, and rice grains are also very helpless.

Shen Wen's gaze suddenly became a little erratic.

"Mr. Shen, good morning, have you had breakfast?" Just as Shen Wen was listing one training plan after another in his head, Xia Dongli opened the door and greeted him, "Will you Come to eat?"

"No, no, I've already eaten." Shen Wen quickly waved his hand, "You are busy, I came early, and I miscalculated the bus time."

"It's okay, then sit down first, I'll take you to work after breakfast." Xia Dongli smiled at him, and then called the dogs at home to have breakfast.

In fact, it turned out that the dogs were fed by Xun Yao, so the reason why they are now fed by Xia Dongli...

The dogs were lined up, and the dog food bowls were placed in front of them one by one. Seeing that he obviously had less food bowls than the other dogs, Rice groaned aggrievedly and lay down on the ground. The cruel master brutally suppressed it.

While chewing the dog food in the bowl, Da Mi glanced at the rice bowl of the little friend next to him, but, however... Woo, the owner is watching, and he can't move.

That's right, in order to keep the innocent image of "little fairy" in the owner's heart, Dami, who is very good at looking at people's faces, will only do robbery in front of Xia Dongli, even if it is Xun Yao who comes Feed it and snatch it, let alone the eccentric old dragon king.

Even if it will be suppressed, if you can steal a bite, you will win. ——BY: rice

But Rice obviously didn't expect that cunning humans would communicate with each other. It didn't take long for Xia Dongli to know what good deeds his dog had done, and since then he started the daily routine of getting up early and monitoring Rice while eating.

Under Xia Dongli's staring eyes, today's rice still couldn't eat outside food, but rice said that even though he was sad, he would go out for a walk with his master.

So, Xia Dongli led the dog and Shen Wen, who also led the dog, walked towards the compost machine. Their destination was the glass greenhouse.

That's right, Xiaotupo's glass greenhouse has officially started to use after autumn!

The heat source of the glass greenhouse is completely natural, relying on the temperature of sunlight during the day and the temperature of the fermentation of the ingredients in the fertilizer machine at night.Of course, as a precaution, the glass house is also equipped with a heating device, which will automatically start up once it senses that the internal temperature has dropped below the marked line. Its power source is the windmill that has already started working on the small soil slope.

Since the beginning of autumn, the cold air from Siberia defeated the warm and humid air on the ocean and began to rage. Even with the cover of Baiyun Mountain, Xia Dongli, who is located in the northeast region, can still feel the power of the northwest wind.

And the windmill set up in the crevice of Baiyun Mountain also began to run with the increasingly strong northwest wind, and the speed and power generation were quite impressive.

Under the lead of Village Chief Xiao Song, the local electric power department accepted Xia Dongli's application. A few days ago, they sent people to his house to install a two-way electric meter and refit the line. After that, the power of the small windmill was supplied to Xia Dongli. It can also rush into the national grid beyond the fence.

In other words, the little windmill can also make money by itself!

However, because the relevant policies have not yet implemented information such as how to calculate the purchase price of electricity, the current settlement method still operates according to the one-to-one offset method.

There is not much demand for electricity on the small soil slopes in this season. The electricity brought by the small windmill can be saved for daily use and sold to the grid. After the floor heating is turned on at home in autumn and winter, this part of the "deposit" can be used. offset the excess.

Xia Dongli had probably figured it out. If there were no accidents, it shouldn't be a problem to pay back the money, and he could even make a small profit.However, the main value of small windmills is not to make money, but to stabilize power supply.

Many things in Xia Dongli's house rely on electricity, such as compost machines, monitoring equipment, and temperature control in greenhouses. Extremely needy.

"The temperature control can also be turned on manually. If the temperature is lower than 20 degrees when you arrive, you can turn it on." Xia Dongli showed the operation panel to others and taught Shen Wen how to turn on the temperature control. It has not been touched, and the indoor temperature of the conservatory has been maintained at around 25 degrees."

"Your job is to check the temperature when you come here every morning, and then open the windows to ventilate at noon. If the indoor temperature is higher than 30 degrees, you can also open the windows. Too hot is not conducive to the growth of bacteria."

Xia Dongli pushed open the door of the glass room while introducing, and showed the indoor environment in front of a person and a dog.

The glass house is divided into three parts. In the middle is a long brown soil planting trough, but there does not seem to be any crops in it. On the left and right sides are the breeding areas built with wood. The top is full of mushroom bags. A shading shed was set up to prevent the sunlight through the glass room from directly exposing the fungus bags.

Then the innermost part... The corners of Shen Wen's mouth twitched slightly, and a small partition was made inside, where lazy people's favorite reclining chair and small coffee table were placed. Umbrellas keep the sun out of the glare and are obviously a great place to take a nap.

There is no peculiar smell in the air, but it is very humid.For a northerner, Shen Wen felt that he was not inhaling, but inhaling water beads.But he just got used to it for a moment, and soon followed Xia Dongli to continue walking.

"I've been stuffy all night, and it's a bit uncomfortable." Xia Dongli opened the skylight a few to let the room ventilate and then introduced, "If you feel stuffy, you can open the window near the rest area. It’s oyster mushroom, and it’s also covered with a film, so it’s not that demanding on humidity, but remember to spray water. I’ve written a guide for the specifics, and you can read it later.”

"Okay." Shen Wen nodded.

"On the contrary, we need to pay more attention to this." Xia Dongli pointed to the position in the middle that he thought was the planting trough before and said, "There are earthworms in it, and earthworms like a humid environment, and they have to replenish water every morning and night , but also feeding, you can master this by following me for two days."

... Are there actually earthworms raised there?

Comrade Xiao Shen's mouth became a little stiff, and at this moment, Xia Dongli's words came to his ears like a devil whispering: "Well, I forgot to ask before, are you afraid of bugs? Are you afraid? That's fine, In addition to ventilating the greenhouse, your job is to pick some earthworms out of the breeding tank, chop them up and feed them to the poultry, and clean the pens. Don’t worry, our cages are easy to clean, nothing to worry about. The smell. The other thing is that the feces should be collected and decomposed to be used as a culture medium for mushrooms. I’m afraid you have to learn this..."

Mr. Xiao Xia's words later flowed from Shen Wen's left ear to his right ear like clouds, and then all of them floated in the sky.

Comrade Xiao Shen, the tough guy in the Northeast, is not afraid of knives, guns, beasts, or vicious dogs, but is afraid of soft wriggling creatures!

This earthworm is so red, well, it's disgusting!

He struggled to look at the calm whirlwind sitting beside him, and then closed his eyes forcefully, with a suspicious light flickering in the corner of his eyes.

Fight for the dog!

——Actually, if he was afraid of bugs, Xia Dongli could arrange other jobs for him.There are not many other things in their house, but there are many small animals. If there are too many animals, it will be a bit burdensome to take care of. In terms of arranging work, Xia Dongli can make a list for people to choose in minutes, but it's a pity that Comrade Xiao Shen doesn't know.

Because of his sudden stubbornness, he might have to dance with earthworms for a long time!

After arranging the task for Comrade Xiao Shen, Xia Dongli walked towards the small brick house with a little more lightness in his steps. Anyway, it is very happy to be lazy.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated, and when he clicked on it, it turned out to be a group @ message sent by Village Chief Xiao Song.

— Big news!This year's moon sacrifice event invited the "Iron Man" variety show to participate in the promotion. This time there are also special guests, several leading actors of "Unnamed", please villagers to carry forward the spirit of Xiaojin Village when participating in the event, don't Watch the variety show team, don't interfere with the shooting...

Xia Dongli didn't read the words behind at all, his eyes were only on the words "special guest", and a line of words flashed through his mind-God will kill me!
