Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 113 Insomnia Harris?

"Boss, after processing the oak wood into wooden boards, we can take it back and build it ourselves."

Taking advantage of the opportunity to eat, Old Wei also suggested it to Wang Lu.

Wang Lu asked a little dumbfounded:

"Old Wei, can you still do carpentry?"

"What's the point? We country folk have to be good at any job. My father is the carpenter in the village, so this little job is nothing! There are quite a few of our brothers who are good at carpentry!"

Now Wang Lu was completely convinced.

He even suspected that if he purchased a wood processing lathe, these versatile veterans could save him all the processing fees.

After those oak sections were sent to the wood processing factory, Lao Wei and a group of veterans got busy when they brought back the processed planks, and there was a clanking sound throughout the ranch.

Taking advantage of this time, Wang Lu found Professor Qin and asked the agricultural technology expert to help him identify the saffron that he had picked and dried.

When Professor Qin saw the few strands of flower stamens in Wang Lu's hand, he looked quite surprised.

"It's saffron, but the probability of it being distributed here is very low!"

With the appraisal from agricultural expert Professor Qin, Wang Lu suddenly felt confident.

"Yes, I couldn't believe it when I first found these things!"

In the end, Professor Qin could only sigh at the magic of nature.

"However, it is also possible that this is some subspecies of saffron. The medicinal efficacy cannot be guaranteed. It is possible that it has no medicinal value at all!"

Professor Qin had the same concerns as Wang Lu, but this was not something Wang Lu could decide. After thanking Professor Qin, Wang Lu continued to watch Old Wei and the others making oak barrels.

When Wang Lu saw the first oak barrel being made, he had no doubts anymore.

Even Parker was surprised when he saw it.

"Shet! Boss, don't tell me that this is a necessary skill for you Chinese people! Aren't Wei and the others professional soldiers? The Marine Corps didn't teach me these things!"

Wang Lu has long been used to Parker's fuss.

But there was another person making the fuss.

"A generous gift, King! It's obvious that you have recruited a group of ingenious employees. These oak barrels seem to be produced from those high-end wineries!"

Harris, who had just gotten out of his pickup truck, had the same look on his face as Parker.

This guy would regularly deliver freshly slaughtered beef and mutton to Wang Lu every morning. This supply would continue until Wang Lu's Zebu cattle, Angus cattle and Boer goats grew up.

"Compared with this, Harris, I think you should be more concerned about your own condition. You seem to have not slept for several days. In fact, I am very worried about you! You are not in good spirits!"

Parker spoke at the right time. At this time, Wang Lu also noticed that Harris looked very tired. His eyes were sunken and wrapped in dark circles. He didn't look normal no matter how he looked.

"Harris, don't tell me you went looking for those wild fungi yourself again!"

Wang Lu's first reaction was that this guy had been poisoned again. Who knew he had a criminal record?

But Harris immediately shook his head and told the truth.

"Thank you for your concern. I really haven't had a good rest these days. In fact, I have had insomnia for several nights! The cattle and sheep I raise have reached the intensive production period, and some have even experienced dystocia. This makes me I had to keep watch all night, but luckily it’s been solved now!”

Wang Lu also understood after hearing this.As long as this guy didn't get poisoned by eating wild mushrooms again.

For the small family farm run by Harris, the matter of livestock calving is undoubtedly very important. He does not have the wealth of Wang Lu to directly purchase a batch of calves and lambs for raising.

It is also quite common for livestock to have dystocia. If not enough care is given or disposed of in time, both the young and the mother are likely to die. However, once a lamb or calf grows up, it can bring considerable profits. The loss was huge immediately.

So it’s no wonder Harris is like this.

However, Wang Lu noticed some information in Harris' words.

"Harris, since you said everything was settled, why are you still looking like this?"

"I'm afraid I have to ask God for this. Now whenever I lie down, I seem to be able to hear the sounds of those animals giving birth, which makes me unable to sleep well all night!"

Hearing this, Parker gloated and teased:
"I can tell, Harris, you probably love those cows and ewes more than your wife!"

Harris gave a helpless smile, but Wang Lu already understood what this guy's illness was. It was actually habitual insomnia caused by continuous mental stress in a specific environment.

A few sleeping pills might help, but looking at Harris's appearance, it's obvious that it doesn't work very well.

Wang Lu suddenly thought of those saffron flowers.

In addition to its miraculous effects on the blood, saffron is also said to have a very good effect on calming the mind and calming the mind.

Isn’t this just the right time to test the efficacy of those saffrons!

Wang Lu immediately said sincerely to Harris:

"Harris, I may have some medicine here that can relieve your pain, if you are willing to try it!"

As soon as Wang Lu finished speaking, a look of hope suddenly appeared on Harris's face.

"Oh, I know! It's your unique Chinese medicine, right? King! I think I'm willing to try it."

While Wang Lu was still surprised by this guy's breadth of knowledge, Harris was still talking:

"I'm really curious about the taste of those medicinal mushroom soups!"

Only then did Wang Lu realize that this guy was still craving for those wild fungi.

But Wang Lu soon selected two of the dried saffron plants, handed them to Harris, and gave them a few words of advice.

"Just take it back and soak it in water to drink!"

Harris was obviously very interested in the shriveled stamens, and said with some confusion:

"King! Are you sure it is a medicinal material? Shouldn't your Chinese traditional medicine be the rhizomes of various plants?"

Wang Lu raised his eyebrows. It seemed that this guy knew a lot.

But Wang Lu can only say, there is something but not much!

"Don't worry Harris, I'm sure it's a traditional Chinese medicine!"

Parker on the side also helped:
"Harris, if you knew that the value of this thing is about the same as gold, I think you wouldn't have so many doubts. Besides, do you know what you are doing? You are discussing Chinese traditional medicine with a Chinese. I don't think so. I think you know this better than my boss!"

Regarding Parker's words, Wang Lu could only say that they were absolutely to the point, accurate and convincing!
