Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 301 Birds Gather to Create a Scene
The changes at the Taoist temple sparked Xu Yue's imagination.

Tourist areas aren't just for sightseeing; if countless birds gather there, it will surely attract countless tourists.

That's also a tourist attraction.

Xu Yue has a way to lure them over, so why not?
“Yes! We’ll bring them here, but not into the Taoist temple,” Xu Yue said. “What about the forest outside the temple?”

Can you do this?

Yu Suihai naturally understood Xu Yue's meaning.

This inspired them to create a landscape artificially!

No, this isn't a landscape, it's a spectacle!

Birds gather
"Won't there be any problems?" Yu Suihai asked. "After all, if we attract eagles or something, things could get really messy."

“We can just not welcome eagles, those carnivorous birds of prey,” Xu Yue said. “However, if birds gather, your Taoist temple will have to prepare some birdseed. Never mind, I’ll talk to Shuai Ming about this.”

Feeding the birds?

Yu Suihai naturally had no objection to this.

It's actually better for the people from their Taoist temple to feed the animals than for the tourist area to have staff feed them.

This would lead tourists to subconsciously believe that the gathering of birds is the reason for the Taoist temple.

This adds a touch of mystery to the Taoist temple.

For Xu Yue, the insect-repelling formation was something he was naturally skilled at.

Setting up such an array doesn't require jade talismans; you can use plants or stones directly.

Know how to construct the array diagram.

Hiss hiss.
As soon as the formation was complete, the snakes, insects, rats, and ants scattered instantly, as if something terrifying was there, making them uneasy. Even the large python on the eaves quickly left.

"This"

When Shuai Ming and other tourists arrived, they happened to see those things escaping from the dojo, and their hair stood on end.

This Taoist temple.
Could it be that the god inside is angry?

"what!"

When the giant python came out, people screamed in fright.

However, the giant python ignored them and disappeared into the forest in the blink of an eye.

"solved?"

Shuai Ming and the others entered the Taoist temple and, upon seeing Xu Yue, couldn't help but ask him a question.

Who solved it?

They had some guesses about this as well.

My boss isn't just a simple farmer.

He also has some methods that are difficult for ordinary people to understand.

"What do you think about luring those birds to the opposite mountain forest, and then bringing some more here?"

Xu Yue did not answer, but instead asked about the commander's name.

"Great!" Shuai Ming paused for a moment, then quickly said, "If that can be done, it will definitely be a bombshell."

The scenery in this scenic area is actually quite nice.

Qinglong Hall, Cyathea Valley, and Yunwu Mountain are all very good.

But it's only not bad.

In addition, valleys, caves, and ancient tombs within caves could barely be considered a major attraction.

But it's not that explosive.

However, if it attracts a gathering of birds in front of it, and then adds the dojo to the scene, it will have a mysterious aura.

This air of mystery can become a major selling point.

As for whether Xu Yue can do it?
Shuai Ming had no doubts.

Since Xu Yue asked that question, then it is naturally possible to do so.

“I’ll take care of attracting those birds, and you guys will handle the follow-up,” Xu Yue said. “Whether the Taoist temple or the scenic area should be responsible for feeding them, you should discuss it with Master Yu.”

As he spoke, Xu Yue left the dojo and headed straight for the forest opposite.

Setting up a formation to lure birds was naturally not difficult for Xu Yue.

As for how Yu Suihai and Shuai Ming will talk?
Xu Yue didn't care, and there wasn't much to talk about anyway.

Ok?
Not long after, Yu Suihai and the others suddenly noticed that the birds in the Taoist temple had suddenly flown away, flying in flocks towards the opposite mountain.

This?
They actually did it, and so quickly.

Yu Suihai was not surprised.

Xu Yue can repel insects, so he can naturally attract them.

Yu Suihai still remembers it vividly.

He is able to have such an opportunity today because of what Xu Yue did to the Chuanlai Hotel back then.

Otherwise, he might not have gone to Peach Blossom Village, nor would he have had the opportunity to enter the Three Realms.

Life's twists and turns are sometimes so mysterious.

"It's done!"

Yu Suihai smiled and said something, then left the Taoist temple first.

The name of the general followed closely behind.

"There will probably be more and more of these in the future."

Yu Suihai glanced at the mountains and forests opposite and then spoke.

Shuai Ming nodded.

If that's all there is to it, it's hardly a spectacle and wouldn't attract many tourists.

If there were more birds, it would certainly be more spectacular and more attractive.

Although many birds have gathered here, the sightseeing experience is still somewhat lacking.

"Let's go back!" he said. "Here, you guys handle things as you see fit, see if we need to repair some birdhouses or something."

Shuai Ming nodded.

With so many birds gathering, feeding them would be a problem if nothing was prepared.

"Master Yu, if there's anything else, please give me a call."

Xu Yue said another word to Yu Suihai, and then went down the mountain.

"What happened in the mountains?"

After Xu Yue returned, Zhang Ruoxi asked him a question out of curiosity.

"We set up a spirit-gathering array for the Taoist temple, but we forgot to set up an insect-repelling array," Xu Yue said. "There have been quite a few snakes, insects, rats, and ants here, and some of them are even trying to take over the temple. Even a large python has come."

"It's similar to the Agricultural Research Institute last time," Zhang Ruoxi said. "Are they still experimenting with spirit-infused rice there?"

"Probably," Xu Yue said. "I heard Academician Meng mention it before, saying that apart from being more susceptible to insects, the rice is superior to ordinary rice in terms of yield, quality, and vitality."

"How do we get rid of the insects?" Zhang Ruoxi asked. "Use pesticides?"

“Ecological farming,” Xu Yue said. “Raising frogs in the fields is better than using pesticides, but there are some frogs that can’t be controlled by pesticides, so we still have to use them. I guess we’ll combine multiple methods. Next year, it seems the Academy of Agricultural Sciences will expand its experimental area and will buy some seeds from us.”

When purchasing seeds, Xu Yue only charges a symbolic fee.

As long as I don't get something for nothing, that's fine.

Of course, it will definitely be more expensive than regular rice seeds.

You get what you pay for.

"Do you think the same problem might occur in the desert?" Zhang Ruoxi asked. "Oh, by the way, are there insects in the desert?"

“Sandworms,” Xu Yue said. “As for whether there are any of the insects from the rice paddies here, such as rice leafhoppers, rice gall midges, and rice gall midges, we don’t know.”

Xu Yue and his men naturally set up insect-repelling arrays in that vast desert.

But what if it becomes widespread?
It's impossible for Xu Yue to set up insect-repelling arrays in rice paddies all over the country, right?
However, the people at the Academy of Agricultural Sciences will start to study this matter.

"Is Academician Meng still in the desert?" Zhang Ruoxi couldn't help but ask, "Didn't he say when he would be back?"

“He’s back in Jincheng,” Xu Yue said. “He’ll come back to the village after the New Year, and then he’ll probably go to the desert again. It seems he’s leading the research there.”

They still attach great importance to desert planting.

As for the Agricultural Science and Technology College, it is not affected.

That research can be considered one of the research areas of the Agricultural Science and Technology College.

Those people led by Academician Meng will also be assigned to the Agricultural Science and Technology College.

There are students, researchers, and even teachers.

When are your parents coming?

Xu Yue asked again.

There's not much time left until Lunar New Year's Eve.

"The flight is on the 28th," Zhang Ruoxi said. "It should arrive in Jincheng this afternoon."

"Twenty-eight?" Xu Yue nodded and said, "It'll be fine if we arrive this afternoon."

"Are Hu Hai and Mu Xiaoyan still in the village?" Zhang Ruoxi asked. "Didn't they go back to prepare beforehand?" "They left yesterday," Xu Yue said. "Shen Yu and the others also went to Chilongtan Reservoir. They should have already made most of the preparations, so going a few days in advance was enough."

Zhang Ruoxi nodded.

Weddings are actually only busy on the day itself.

A good wedding planning company can save you a lot of trouble.

"When are you and Qingqing planning to get married?" Zhang Ruoxi continued, "Aren't you and Lu Zhenyu waiting?"

Xu Yue shook his head.

Xiong Yong is currently busy with hotel business in the county.

It is estimated that this will happen after the hotel opens.

But this is just speculation.

In the end, neither of them sent out invitations.

However, although Xie Qingqing was "studying" at the clinic, she basically went back to the county town every day.

The two are already living together and have a very good relationship.

Xiong Yong did not look down on Xie Qingqing just because he wanted to project an imposing image.

However, Xie Qingqing's family no longer looked down on Xiong Yong.

"Are you going to Hu Hai and Mu Xiaoyan's wedding?"

Xu Yue asked about Zhang Ruoxi.

Zhang Ruoxi became somewhat lazy during her pregnancy, preferring to stay still as much as possible.

These days, people either stay at home reading or go to the laboratory to read.

“Go ahead!” Zhang Ruoxi said. “We’ll ask Uncle San and the others if they’re going too. Otherwise, we’ll have to each drive our own car.”

"There are only three of you, your parents and your brother, why are you driving two cars?" Xu Yue asked疑惑地问道, "Are your aunt and uncle coming?"

“My brother has a girlfriend,” Zhang Ruoxi said with a smile. “Of course, there’s not enough room in one car.”

"Oh, really?" Xu Yue said, "Ruohai has a girlfriend? Where is she from? What does she do?"

“Grandpa Xue’s granddaughter,” Zhang Ruoxi said. “She’s currently a graduate student. I never expected that they would actually get together.”

"Have you known each other since childhood?" Xu Yue asked with a smile. Seeing Zhang Ruoxi nod, he added, "We're childhood sweethearts!"

It's rare for childhood sweethearts to actually end up together.

Because we know each other too well.

It's already a miracle if girls who know Zhang Ruohai don't dislike him.

Just think of his friend Jiang Mingcong and you'll know.

That guy's got some fancy tricks up his sleeve.

"Very surprised?"

Zhang Ruoxi seemed to have seen through Xu Yue's thoughts.

"She doesn't know who your brother is?"

Xu Yue couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Ruoxi naturally knew what kind of person her brother was; if it were her, she really wouldn't want to.

If it were an ordinary woman, there would be nothing to say; after all, Zhang Ruohai is rich.

But Zhang Ruohai's girlfriend's family is probably not short of money, and she wouldn't be after Zhang Ruohai's family's money.

"Who can really say anything about matters of the heart?" Zhang Ruoxi said. "However, my brother is now completely under her thumb."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yue became somewhat curious about Zhang Ruohai's girlfriend.

Time flies, and it's now the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Xu Yue and Zhang Ruoxi planned to go to Chilongtan Reservoir a day early.

Xu Jianghe and Wang Yun will also be going.

Hu Hai and Mu Xiaoyan attended their wedding, and Xu Jianghe and Wang Yun naturally couldn't miss it.

"Is Wang Yun experiencing motion sickness, or morning sickness?"

Zhang Ruoxi looked at Xu Jianghe and couldn't help but ask.

We arrived a day early, taking our time and driving slowly.

Of course, this is not the key.

The key point is that even though she got off the bus so long ago, Wang Yun is still gagging, which doesn't seem like motion sickness at all.

"This"

When Zhang Ruoxi asked him this question, Xu Jianghe couldn't answer it, but he seemed to think it was the latter.

"How about we go to Jincheng Hospital for a check-up later?"

Seeing their reactions, Xu Yue immediately offered his suggestion.

"it is good!"

Xu Jianghe and Wang Yun exchanged a glance and then nodded.

This certainly doesn't seem like motion sickness, and considering other symptoms, it really does seem like a possibility that she might be pregnant.

They also hoped it was a pregnancy.

Once I had this idea, I couldn't stay still any longer and immediately drove to Jincheng Hospital.

Xu Yue and Zhang Ruoxi shouldn't follow along.

They came to attend someone's wedding, but although they arrived early, they didn't even greet anyone and just turned around and left, which was clearly inappropriate.

"Didn't your third uncle and the others come together?" Mu Xiaoyan asked. "Are they going back to their parents' home first?"

Wang Yun's parents live in Jincheng, so it seems reasonable for her to visit her parents' home as well.

"I've been experiencing some morning sickness and couldn't wait to go to the hospital," Zhang Ruoxi said with a smile. "You'd better hurry!"

"What's the rush?" Mu Xiaoyan pouted and said, "Do you want me to become in-laws with your third uncle and his family, or with you?"

"That's something we can consider," Zhang Ruoxi said with a smile. "Has Xiong Yan arrived?"

"They're here!" Mu Xiaoyan said. "She and Lu Zhenyu are the best man and maid of honor."

"They're practically professional groomsmen and bridesmaids now."

Xu Yue couldn't help but make a comment.

Xiong Yan and Mu Xiaoyan have a good relationship, and Lu Zhenyu and Hu Hai have known each other for a long time.

As for why they didn't look for Shen Yu and the others?

Although those three guys were closer to Hu Hai, they were all scumbags; how could they be best men?

"I forgot about that," Zhang Ruoxi said. "Let's get together for a meal this afternoon if we're not busy."

"Okay!"

Mu Xiaoyan naturally had no objections.

Xu Yue curled his lip, "What are we going to put together at this table?"
That goes without saying; it's definitely to get together for a mahjong game.

"Where are Shen Yu and the others?" Xu Yue asked casually, "Fishing?"

"Otherwise what?" Mu Xiaoyan said, "It's about balancing work and rest."

Xu Yue didn't say anything, and then went to find them.

After lunch, Xu Jianghe and Wang Yun arrived.

Zhang Ruoxi and her two friends were playing mahjong, while Shen Yu and the others hadn't gone fishing yet.

"how?"

Xu Yue couldn't help but ask.

Xu Jianghe smiled and nodded.

"congratulations!"

Upon seeing this, the others naturally knew what Xu Yue was asking.

"Have you eaten?" Zhang Ruoxi asked. "If not, go and eat quickly. If you have, there's still one seat left."

"We haven't had time to eat yet," Wang Yun said. "You guys play first, we'll go eat and then come back."

"How are you preparing?"

Wang Yun and Xu Jianghe went to eat, while Xu Yue and the others prepared to go fishing. Xu Yue asked about Hu Hai.

He had been busy entertaining guests and hadn't gone fishing with Shen Yu and the others at all.

The guests who arrived early were not limited to Xu Yue and his group.

"It should be fine," Hu Hai said. "We've increased the quantity by several tables."

Hu Hai and Mu Xiaoyan's wedding was also served with top-quality dishes.

It wasn't Xu Yue who sponsored it; he paid for it.

Of course, a huge discount was offered.
