Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm
Chapter 54 African Lungfish
Chapter 54 African Lungfish
Wang Lu then gave up this idea.
But the next morning, Wang Lu couldn't wait to get up early.
The news feed on the mobile phone also officially announced the magnitude of last night’s earthquake, which was 4.7.
The first loss the ranch suffered was the guinea fowl. There were dozens of them visible to the naked eye. They must have been frightened and fled under the cover of night.
Fortunately, there is not much loss in other aspects.
The villa was not affected at all because it had laid a solid foundation early. Huang Zheng even called personally and stated that he would make an overall inspection of the structural safety of the entire villa as soon as he entered the site today. Evaluate to ensure that no safety hazards are left.
As for those sisal fields, needless to say, the only impact was probably that a few sisal seedlings fell on the ground. This was because Wang Lu seriously suspected that the black workers were planting too casually.
Wang Lu then went to the Dome River to see the specific situation.
From a distance, the turbulent sound caused by the abundant water flow reached Wang Lu's ears. Only when he was nearby did he have an intuitive feeling about the increase in the amount of water in the Dome River.
A large amount of water surged out from the collapsed pit, and there were a lot of soil scattered around. If it weren't for the earthquake last night, the scene in front of me would have been more like being hit by an inexplicable explosive force. .
Then Wang Lu discovered something unusual among the scattered clods of soil.
Wang Lu rubbed his eyes vigorously to make sure that he was completely awake and had no hallucinations due to getting up too early, and then he confirmed that there were several living creatures wrapped in the scattered clods of soil.
Fish to be exact!
This completely overturned Wang Lu's understanding. In addition to being in water, fish can also survive in mud?
After careful observation, Wang Lu confirmed that these things were 90.00% likely to be fish. Their appearance was somewhat similar to that of a catfish. They also had two tentacles, but they were different. There were stripes all over the body.
"Boss, there is no safety in this place. It seems that last night's earthquake caused the entire area to collapse, but how the groundwater surged out may be explained by those damn scientists."
Parker's voice came from behind. Wang Lu also hurriedly found a savior and waved to Parker:
"Come and take a look, what's going on? But I don't want to hear any nonsense about God's gift!"
Parker, who heard the call, also quickened his pace. Following the direction of Wang Lu's fingers, he also saw the species tightly wrapped in clods of soil, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Boss, I think I probably understand your doubts. These guys are African lungfish. Their unique physiological structure allows them to survive for a long time underground even without water. It seems that the earthquake last night The resulting collapse flushed these African lungfish out of the ground."
Seeing that Wang Lu still looked confused, Parker squatted down, pulled out an African lungfish, opened the guy's ugly mouth, and then showed it to Wang Lu:
"These African lungfish have an opening at the mouth of their esophagus and an organ that is different from other fish, called a swim bladder. In addition to breathing through their gills, they can also breathe through their swim bladder. Their lungs are even as long as The body length is almost the same as that of the whole fish, and they can also reduce the consumption of oxygen and energy by sleeping. In short, these guys have very tenacious vitality!" After listening to Parker's explanation, Wang Lu completely accepted this kind of thing called Africa. Lungfish creature.
After learning that this fish can survive for six months or more without water, they wait for the rainy season to come to life again.
Even though the appearance of these guys was not beautiful, Wang Lu still maintained a certain respect for this extremely tenacious species and directly ordered Parker to release all the remaining African lungfish into the much-expanded area. In the Mu River.
It is said that local people sometimes specifically look for the hiding places of these African lungfish to dig them out and use them as food for tooth beating rituals. The taste seems to be pretty good.
This can be regarded as enriching the fishery resources of the pasture.
After taking care of the matter of these African lungfish, Wang Lu asked Parker to drive the Raptor and patrol along the banks of the Dome River downstream. He found that the water volume in the upper reaches of the Dome River had soared, and it was so abundant that it overflowed the river banks. There are even pools of water in some low-lying areas.
As for the downstream areas, the rivers that had dried up due to the arrival of the dry season have become full again due to the replenishment of water from the upstream, and are even more abundant than before the dry season.
At least Wang Lu had seen no less than four or five waves of wild animals being attracted to drink water along the way.
"Abundant water flow will produce dense water vapor. Those wild animals that are extremely short of water in the dry season can even smell the moist water vapor from dozens of kilometers or further away. Boss can foresee that our pastures may have to be destroyed before the rainy season arrives. Get ahead of the arrival of some wildlife!”
Parker said excitedly while sitting in the driver's seat!
Wang Lu next to him did the same:
"Maybe I should get a hunting license. What kind of puck should I prepare?"
As soon as Parker heard this, he knew that his boss was already planning to put legal hunting on the agenda. Thinking of the sight of hunting on the vast pastures in the entire northern Woulu Mountains in the future, Parker couldn't help but want to cheer.
"Don't worry, boss, this is my old profession. In fact, in addition to guiding and teaching wilderness survival skills, I have also taken many tourists on hunting activities. It is absolutely nothing to obtain a hunting license with your intelligence. question!"
Parker smiled heartily and gave Wang Lu a small pat on the butt, which also made Wang Lu feel good.
After confirming that last night's earthquake had no other effects, Wang Lu and Parker embarked on their return journey.
Huang Zheng and the construction team have already arrived and are conducting safety assessment work.
And it didn’t take long to come to a conclusion.
"Little boss, last night's earthquake did not have any impact on the foundation of the villa and the overall building structure. I think the construction can continue!"
Huang Zheng reported the news to Wang Lu personally, which made Wang Lu even more happy.
Originally, he was worried that the process of moving into the villa would be delayed, but now it seems that there is no need to worry!
Then he continued to focus on the planting work of the sisal field. In a few days, the reclamation of the sisal field will be completed. All that is left is to plant all the sisal seedlings!
