After locking the memo, Huang Dashan called: The test results of the dead chicks sent for inspection yesterday came out. 【Read the latest chapter】
"The culture results of the sent standard showed that no avian influenza or other germs were found." Huang Dashan said on the phone, "This can basically rule out disease infection."
"This is great." Wu Nanhai has been worried about this matter, and he was relieved when he heard that he did not die from illness. "But I still have to go to the brood to have a look. The mortality rate is a bit abnormal."
"You might as well go take a look. If you're worried, take a few more samples and come back. If there's secretion, take a sample too. I'll do another culture experiment."
"Okay." Wu Nanhai put down the phone and decided to go to the hatchery to see it in person.
"Ah Shui, take me to the brood farm." Wu Nanhai came to the yard and greeted Liu Ah Shui who was pushing a cart to deliver hot water bottles to various offices. In addition to pulling carts for him, Liu Ah Shui also worked as a farmer when not pulling carts. Committee handyman.
Liu Ashui quickly handed the cart to another handyman and pulled the rickshaw out himself. After looking at the sky, he put up the canvas tent again.
Wu Nanhai took a rickshaw all the way to the farm's brooding ground. Reports in the past few days showed that the number of chicks dying was abnormal. More than 30% higher than normal. In addition, the chicken flu not long ago made him very worried about this: even in the old time and space when all kinds of medicines were perfect, the main method of dealing with chicken flu was large-scale culling, not to mention the lack of technical equipment, vaccines, and medicines now. of the 17th century. Huang Dashan promised to develop a special vaccine, but so far there has been no result.
The only thing he can do is to strengthen institutional management and adopt strict disinfection measures. Reduce the incidence rate to a minimum.
Yang Guogui had already arrived before him. When Wu Nanhai entered, he was taking off his isolation gown, and a naturalized citizen student wearing a mask walked by holding a box of things. Wu Nanhai asked: "How is the situation?"
"It's similar to your estimate. Bird flu can be ruled out initially." Yang Guogui took off his gloves and put the gloves and isolation gown into a special pocket. Through on-site facility inspection, the corpses of dead chicks are then inspected. Yang Guogui can roughly confirm that the dead chicks were squeezed to death - it should be the negligence of the breeding staff. The temperature in the chicken room dropped in the latter half of the night, and the chicks gathered in a pile to keep each other warm.
"But to be cautious, I still took a second sample, which was from the chicks that died this morning. You can send it to the laboratory for culture and examination."
Wu Nanhai opened the box and saw a chicken sample sealed in a large glass bottle. There were also some unknown liquids in several small bottles. He shook his head and closed the box again.
"The density here is too high. Sooner or later there will be chicken plague." Yang Baoguo watched his students packing their equipment boxes. "It's normal for the mortality rate to be high. I just measured the air humidity here and it's on the high side. You need to pay more attention."
Wu Nanhai nodded: "You are right, in addition to diversion, management must also be strengthened."
Coming out of the brood. Wu Nanhai rushed to the construction site of the farm's water conservancy project without stopping. Find the person in charge of the construction site and make arrangements for the 800 slave laborers to be shipped in a few days.
"Meals are provided as ordinary migrant workers do: enough rice and enough pickles." Wu Nanhai arranged, "You just assign tasks and supervise the supervisors to complete them on time. Do not interfere with the management of the guards and supervisors. Do you understand?"
These slaves were all brought by Quark, although due to the launch of the engine plan, a large number of laborers flowed in every day. However, with the spread of construction across the island, the labor force in Lingao is still in short supply, especially those with particularly heavy physical labor that have a particularly high mortality rate. It is very uneconomical to use long-distance transportation, purification, and recuperation of immigrants.
These slaves were originally purchased for the development of Sanya. Although high-intensity and high-risk operations are accompanied by a huge death rate, Quarkchin, driven by huge profits, continues to transport slaves, causing the number of slaves to increase significantly. Sanya is now basically saturated. After collective discussion at the last plenary meeting of the Senate, it was decided to liberalize the scope of application of slaves. It is suitable for all businesses requiring heavy physical labor in Hainan, Taiwan and other places.
but. This opening is limited to the scope of labor in infrastructure projects and mining. The instruction issued by the Planning Institute clearly prohibits the use of slaves in industrial and agricultural production. Except for temporary campsites. Slaves are strictly prohibited from obtaining a fixed residence near their workplace or living together with indigenous people and naturalized people; slaves are not allowed to have contact with indigenous people and naturalized people who have nothing to do with their work. Any slave who attempted to hide or escape during transportation and labor would be executed on the spot.
Wu Nanhai felt a little uneasy when he thought of this notice, and he couldn't help but feel a little ripple in his heart.
"Under every sleeper, there is an Irish body." Wu Nanhai looked at the construction site where the dusk was getting darker and couldn't help but cross himself.
"Master, where are you going now?" Liu Ashui asked.
"Go to the farm teahouse."
The Farm Teahouse is the original Nanhai Farm Cafe. Since it became an independent accounting unit under the Council of Agriculture, the official registered name has become a bland name like "Farm Tea Club". But everyone still calls it Nanhai Cafe.
A row of houses by the artificial lake at the end of Nongong 2nd Road is brightly lit, and the nightlife of the farm teahouse has just begun.
This teahouse is a composite multi-story building with three floors in the main part. A protruding double-story podium is built on the waterfront part. The waterside part is a large glass wall, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful scenery on the water. There is another building outside. Open-air water platform. When the weather is nice, tables, chairs and parasols are provided on the platform for the elders to relax.
On the other side of the building, there is a wooden structure bungalow - the former site of the old teahouse. It is currently used as a food store and teahouse ancillary facilities for the general office.
Not far from the teahouse, across a nursery is the "farmhouse" of the farm - Lotus Root Pavilion. It is now also under the management of the tea house.
The artificial lake is planted with lotus roots and other aquatic crops, and is also used to raise ducks. The duck shed originally located on the other side of the lake was moved because the elders reported that they could smell the smell of duck feces in the wind from time to time while relaxing on the terrace.
Outside the entire tea house building, there is a small garden surrounded by dense hedges and flowers and trees to separate the outside world. Ensure privacy.
Today, the farm tea house is also brightly lit, and the faint sound of music blows in waves with the evening breeze. Along with the fragrance of tuberose on the roadside, it has a rather decadent and luxurious atmosphere.
Wu Nanhai's rickshaw had a pass and passed the gate outside the garden smoothly, and was pulled directly to the steps of the main building of the tea house. A tall Spaniard wearing a European-style long-breasted jacket came down the steps in a respectful manner. He bowed towards Wu Nanhai. He said in an unskilled Chinese: "Welcome, Your Excellency."
"Hello, Sancho." Wu Nanhai got out of the car and said to Liu Asui: "You go back first, don't wait for me." Then he took out a cut "Li Quan Special Edition" cigar, Sancho Immediately take out a lighter and light it for him. He took a deep breath, blew out the smoke ring, and took out the card from his pocket.
"My membership card."
This Spaniard was one of the several Spanish sailors captured in Bopu. After working in the labor camp for more than a year, Wu Nanhai wanted to come because he was from a grape farmer family in Galicia, Spain. After a futile attempt to grow grapes failed - Hainan Island once again proved that it was not suitable for viticulture - Sancho became a winemaker in the fruit wine brewing workshop run by Xue Ziliang, and concurrently worked as a waiter in the teahouse and bar in the evening.
Sancho was a poor man in Spain, and his family had long since died and dispersed, so he fled to East Asia. Now that I have a stable life and don't have to live a hellish life at sea, I am naturally happy to live here for many years.
In addition to serving as a bartender at the teahouse, he is also responsible for checking membership cards when welcoming guests. As a special leisure and entertainment place for the Senate, the Farm Teahouse adopts a membership system. For the time being, only elders are accepted as members, and each elder will receive a card regardless of whether they are in Lingao or not. Supplementary cards can be applied for under the membership card. Currently, only life secretaries, adopted children, and apprentices with a formal master-apprentice relationship who are naturalized citizens and are over 16 years old can apply.
Members can use the card to record their purchases at teahouses and affiliated special food stores. The bills are sent to the general office every month and deducted from the veteran's personal account. The main veteran card can consume all items, while the supplementary card can only consume some services.
"Thank you." Sancho did not accept the card, bowed again, and then turned sideways to lead the way.
Opening the leather-shod door, a burst of soft music came out. The lights in the hall were dim, with only the glass candlesticks shining brightly. The small dance floor in the middle was illuminated by some electric lights. The semi-dark atmosphere combined with soft music made the atmosphere relaxed and soft.
Leisure and entertainment area on the first floor of the main building. All are high-back train seats. There is a bar selling a variety of alcohol, tea, cocoa and coffee. There is a dedicated smoking area for cigarettes, cigarettes and cigars. There is also a small dance floor, equipped with a small stage for performances and an orchestra pit. It's just a decoration at the moment, they lack instruments and even less suitable musicians. Music still relies on audio equipment.
The second floor is in the form of teahouse private rooms, where members can have their own gatherings. A variety of tabletop board games are available on the second floor. In addition to traditional games such as flying chess, military chess, poker, Chinese and international chess, Go, mahjong, Pai Gow, and dice, there are also various board games: Three Kingdoms, Dungeons & Dragons, Warhammer, and so on. There is also a large entertainment room, equipped with locally made snooker and nine-ball pool tables and pinball machines - all of these things are made by Zichengji and Guangzhou's skilled craftsmen according to the styles provided by Lingao. They are truly ingenious.
