Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 597 Post-disaster epidemic prevention!

We can only look at the specific losses of these saffrons first, and then consider replanting them.

In addition, due to flooding, the groundwater in the living area has also been polluted to a certain extent. The water from the wells in the past two days has a turbid color. Fortunately, the drinking water reserves of the pasture are still sufficient.

However, domestic water was somewhat scarce and could only be used temporarily by James' hotel. The well in this guy's hotel was much deeper than the well Wang Lu dug at the ranch and was not contaminated by floods.

But in the next few days, the groundwater source of the pasture should be clean again.

By the way, the underground cables in the ranch may also need professional maintenance!
When the hydropower station was built, the transmission cables were routed underground. Now we can see that this is forward-looking. At least during the flood, the power supply to the entire ranch was not cut off. If the transmission cables were routed from the ground, as long as there was a telephone pole If it is knocked down by floods or debris carried by floods, the entire living area may face the embarrassing situation of power outage.

Then I am afraid that the impact of this flood will be greater. At least without power, many works cannot be carried out or are not so smooth.

According to Parker's inquiries, the power supply to the town of Bahria was cut off on the first day of the flood... James' hotel has been relying on diesel generators to generate electricity, and the black power workers are still making repairs. , but based on Wang Lu’s understanding of the work efficiency of these local black people, he is afraid that they will not be able to connect to the electricity for three to five days.

But Wang Lu couldn't help but worry when he looked at the flooding water.

Although at present, there are no problems with the cables buried deep in the ground, the flood may have swollen the soil in the entire upstream grassland area, so it is better to check and repair them for peace of mind.

By the time Wang Lu wandered around a few hills outside the Woulu Mountains, the sky had darkened, and he returned to the living area under the protection of the veterans.

After dinner, Wang Lu went back to his room for daily parent-child education with his eldest son. The fat boy could already babbling out some words without any actual meaning, while Wang Lu He was looking forward to waiting for his grown-up son to call him daddy.

The next morning, after being manually woken up by his eldest son's chubby little hands, Wang Lu also carried his eldest son into his bed and had a good intimacy, and then soaked the little one's body. The heavy diaper was changed.

"Your kid also made a big fuss last night!"

Wang Lu said helplessly, while Zhou Rou on one side chuckled softly under the quilt:

"Who asked you to make him too much milk powder in the middle of the night!"

After taking care of his big boy, Wang Lu got up and washed up. After walking out of the villa, he found that the water level outside had completely receded.

The ground was completely exposed, and it seemed that it was not completely dry, but there were no obvious puddles, and there was still a damp smell in the air, which was not pleasant.

Fortunately, the surrounding area is open, allowing the sun to shine for a day or two and the wind on the grassland, which will quickly dissipate the musty and damp smell.

Before that, the entire ranch living area needs to be thoroughly disinfected.

Parker and the veterans are also ready and are already mixing the disinfectants. They can spray them at any time as long as they wear protective clothing.

The entire disinfecting process will take two or three days to achieve sufficient results.

During this period, Wang Lu also planned to take his family out for a walk. Although the family did not want to return to China or go to London, there was no need to stay in the ranch. Wang Lu was worried that those disinfectants would be harmful to some extent. There is some physical damage.Therefore, the whole family had no objection to this proposal.

As for the location, Wang Lu also chose it early.

Having been here for so long, I have yet to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, which is a small regret no matter how you look at it.

So Wang Lu directly asked Parker to contact a professional mountaineering company in Arusha for him to take charge of his family's mountaineering trip!

In addition to Wang Lu's family, a security team will also accompany him to be responsible for Wang Lu's safety.

The scheduled trip starts tomorrow, so Wang and his father-in-law Zhou Jianshu and his wife are already preparing their luggage.

Wang Lu went to the upper reaches of the Dome River and took a look. As expected, the crop fields on both sides of the river were all washed away. All the seedlings were lying in the fields, and there was no hope of recovery.

There is even a large amount of domestic garbage and silt accumulated in the fields, which must be reclaimed.

The boundaries of some fields have even been blurred, and the ridges of the fields have been directly washed away. The rice flower crabs that I raised are probably all gone...
The veterans wore protective clothing and drove pickup trucks to the grassland areas downstream, where they began to collect the carcasses of animals that had died in the floods.

Many wild animals died in this flood. Once the flood receded, their bodies appeared directly on the grassland.

Most of them are immature animals. Their size makes it difficult for them to survive the flood. If they are not moved to high ground in time, just one washout will be enough to take away their lives.

There are even carcasses of some adult large animals, such as wildebeest and zebra.

In the floods, the most leisurely and safe ones are probably the giraffes. After all, their height is really advantageous. When Wang Lu took a helicopter to inspect, he often saw those giraffes leisurely in the floods. walk.

Even the surviving hunters on the grassland had no intention of eating such animal carcasses that had been soaked in floods for a long time.

As long as the time comes, these animal carcasses may be the source of a plague.

Therefore, it is necessary to clean up quickly. This is also an important part of post-disaster epidemic prevention. A large number of pathogenic bacteria accumulate and breed inside these animal carcasses. Once they are exposed to the sun, they will soon rot and produce maggots.

This has also greatly increased the workload of veterans. Fortunately, drones can help with the search.

The veterans have been busy working in the grassland all day, and the collected animal carcasses will be uniformly and harmlessly disposed of.

On the pasture side, Amanda led the black employees to also start cutting down trees and plan to rebuild the fence around the chicken coop. It was no problem to leave these simple tasks to them.
