Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 150 News about the Parasitic Wasp
"Boss, it seems that these snake vultures have settled in our pasture!"

Parker on the side also came to a conclusion after observing for a while. Wang Lu was a little confused, and then Parker pointed to the snake eagle feathers and explained.

"Those are the stamens of the acacia tree, and the height of the acacia tree is also very suitable for them to build nests, and we happen to have acacia trees in our pasture."

At this time, Wang Lu also saw clearly that the feathers of the snake vultures were indeed mixed with some yellow stamens, and he immediately covered his head. This was because he was using himself as a long-term meal ticket.

But in the blink of an eye, Wang Lu didn't take this matter to heart. Anyway, it was just a few snake vultures, so it wasn't a big deal.

In the afternoon, Parker reported to Wang Lu about the problem of the parasitic wasps.

"Boss, I've already asked around. Although these parasitic wasps are distributed locally, they all live in the wild. Very few people will specifically collect or raise this species. After all, they don't want to produce honey like bees. But you Don’t worry, I will continue to inquire and will let you know as soon as I have any news!”

Wang Lu was mentally prepared for this matter. Anyway, the worst case scenario was just like what Harris said. If you are tired, you will be tired. If you are diligent, you will not give those ticks a chance.

But what Wang Lu didn't expect was that things would turn around very quickly.

Professor Qin came to the ranch again the next day. Because there were golden sands in the Dome River and the wind was too strong, Wang Lu also told Professor Qin that he and his students should not come to the ranch for a while. It is best to leave the town of Baria.

But the security of the small town of Baria has been greatly improved recently. After all, the names of Mr. Issa, the Police Chief of the entire Kilimanjaro region, and Mr. Chavenet, the Minister of Interior, popped out of the mouth of Old Sanders. The pressure on Chief Robert is really too much!

It is said that the Arusha Police Department has specially dispatched a lot of additional police officers to the town of Bahria to maintain law and order.

The [-] acres of sisal land in the ranch also needed experts like Professor Qin to regularly check the growth conditions and control of pests and diseases. Only then did Wang Lu dare to let Professor Qin continue to return to the ranch.

Professor Qin, who returned to the ranch, happened to learn that Wang Lu was worried about those parasitic wasps, and he immediately said with a smile:

"Mr. Wang, I happen to have a way with this matter, but I have to say first that you have to give me another bottle of the red wine you brewed. I, Lao Qin, can't work in vain!"

After hearing Professor Qin's words, Wang Lu immediately said:
"Isn't it just a bottle of wine? As you always said, I have to give it to you. It has nothing to do with anything but our friendship!"

"You know how to talk, but in addition to our main business, our Agricultural Reclamation Group occasionally receives colleagues from domestic fraternal units. Recently, several scholars from the Entomological Research Institute have carried out inspections and scientific research locally. If you want to engage in parasitism, If there are bees, maybe they will find a way!"

After Professor Qin finished speaking slowly, Wang Lu immediately asked Professor Qin to contact him.

"Don't worry, I, Lao Qin, still have some respect. By the way, those old guys in China will have flights the day after tomorrow. We have to rely on them to successfully cultivate those saffrons!"

When Wang Lu heard this, he immediately remembered that Professor Qin had mentioned to him before that some domestic experts in saffron research wanted to inspect his pasture.

"Don't worry, Mr. Qin, I will have to entertain all the experts just for the profits after the successful cultivation of saffron!"

What Wang Lu said was not false at all. Who made saffron known as the gold of medicine? This is a species that can bring huge profits to himself.

Seeing Wang Lu's statement, Professor Qin also smiled and nodded. He was not worried about this. He spent a lot of time dealing with Wang Lu during this period. From the perspective of a scholar like him, Wang Lu's greatest advantage is That means being open-minded and serious, especially trusting in leaving professional matters to professionals and never pointing fingers.For researchers like them, their favorite collaborator is Wang Lu!

Not to mention, Wang Lu respects him quite a bit. The most important thing is that the red wine and beer he brews taste quite good. The unique flavor is not available in China!

So, after conducting a basic inspection of the [-] acres of sisal land on the ranch and finding no problems, Professor Qin left with a bottle of red wine brewed by the ranch, and received the news before leaving.

"The news came from our brother's unit. They have inquired with the relevant local research organizations. They really have a research project related to this parasitic wasp. They happen to have a batch of parasitoid wasps on hand that can be used. Even if you missed it, I have agreed to it for you. Got it!"

"Okay, you must always do things quickly, and this move is indeed extraordinary."

Everyone carried the sedan chair, and Wang Lu just offered it with a spiral flattery.

Professor Qin has really helped me a lot. This kind of academic research organization is really difficult for ordinary people to contact, but who allows us to have people in this field?Turning around, Wang Lu handed over the matter of dealing with the locals to Parker.

The parasitic wasp matter is finally settled, and the price of this batch of parasitic wasps is not expensive.

It is said that a local research institution originally planned to study the reproduction methods of these parasitic wasps. Unexpectedly, the scientific research produced no results, but the parasitic wasps reproduced in large numbers.

Even if it is not sold to Wang Lu, it is just for release into nature, so the price is simply cabbage price.

With these parasitic wasps, it is basically impossible for ticks in the pasture to cause any moths.

Wang Lu no longer has to worry about ticks multiplying in the pasture and attacking the cattle and sheep he raises.

According to Parker's report, this research institution is in Dar es Salaam, and it only takes two or three days to transport the parasitic wasps to the pasture, and Wang Lu has to bear the transportation costs.

Wang Lu signed a check with a wave of his hand and asked Parker to operate it.

The next day, in addition to bringing Wang Lu the good news that the parasitic wasps were on the way, Parker also brought a group of people.

"Boss, this Mr. Makarov is the operations director of the hot air balloon company!"

Parker pointed to the leader, a black man in work clothes, and introduced him. Wang Lu also reacted immediately, then smiled and shook hands with the man.

"Dear Mr. Wang, I am here to determine the specific flight route of the hot air balloon tour at your ranch. I hope to get your help!"

"Of course! Welcome, Mr. Makarov!"

Wang Lu then summoned Lao Wei and several other veterans who were not on duty and drove with the group to the ranch for inspection.
