Renovate the pipeline that introduces river water and install a vortex generator to provide continuous power supply.

You should also consider installing two battery packs. When the river water level drops and the generator cannot generate electricity, the battery pack will provide backup power.

Nanyi doesn't dare to use the electricity at home.

At this time, there was no guarantee of electricity consumption in rural areas. Not only were power outages every day, but they would be outages every now and then. This was all due to insufficient power generation and priority was given to supplying power to industries and urban areas.

Even in villages that have electricity, which household still doesn’t have a few candles ready?

Just as he said, Nan Yi was still calculating where to install the camera, and the incandescent lights in the hall went out.

"Ruobing, light the candlestick."

"Why."

Nan Ruoping climbed onto the Taishi's chair, polished the match, first lit the red candle on one candlestick, then lit the other on the fire, and placed the candlestick next to Nan Yi.

"Dad, can we make torches?"

Seeing the candles, Nan Ruoping thought of making a torch for fun.

"Let's talk tomorrow night. We have to finish this calculation today. Come over and help dad do it together."

He is a child, he has no temperament. During the day, Nan Ruopeng was still enthusiastically helping to calculate together, but at night, she had no interest at all.

"oh."

Nan Ruobing took the paper and pen, and also brought a calculator to Nan Yi's side to help with the calculations.

The next day, early in the morning, Nan Yi took Nan Ruoping across the barbed wire fence with a urine bucket and went to his vegetable garden to water the orange trees.

Although Nan Ruobin did not have a "Transit Farming Certificate", as a child and familiar with people's faces, he was not so particular and did not need to show any Xiangguan ID card.

"Dad, are the oranges ripe yet?"

"Some of them are already ripe. If you want to eat them, you can pick them and eat them."

Nan Yi originally bought half-grown saplings. The saplings have been cultivated for more than two years. He planted them just over a year ago, and this year they produced their first fruit.

Looking at the dense oranges on the orange tree, Nan Yi felt a little pity.

I wasn't home in the spring and didn't cut off most of the flower buds. So many fruits were produced in the first year that the orange tree was damaged to its core.

"Ah, Dad, there are so many caterpillars."

"Be careful. Dad has never sprayed pesticides. Be careful of being stung."

"oh."

Upon hearing this, Nan Ruoping carefully broke off three green and yellow oranges, hurriedly peeled them open and stuffed them into her mouth.

"Dad, I'm still a little sour."

"It's okay. You can take it back and bury it in the grain in the grain cabinet. It will become sweet by tomorrow night."

"Oh, why is that?"

"Why?"

Nan Yi was stunned, he only knew that doing this could accelerate ripening, but he really didn't know the reason for this.

"Dad doesn't know either. He heard it from an old man in the past. You can check this answer yourself. When you find it, can you teach it to dad?"

"good."

Nan Yi has always consciously conveyed to Nan Ruobin the concept of "dad is not omnipotent", and also conveyed to her the signal to learn more knowledge, surpass herself, and in turn teach herself.

Nan Ruoping did not disappoint Nan Yi. Her knowledge structure is already very large. Once more knowledge is crammed into her mind, she is expected to become an all-rounder in the future.

After Nan Yi finished watering, he hoeed away the grass that extended beyond the orange tree plot toward the Snake Miemen.

There are weeds growing under the fruit trees. Although they will take up some nutrients, it is still beneficial not to hoe them off. In the early morning, there will be dew on the grass blades. After being illuminated, the sunlight will be reflected to the oranges, allowing the lower part of the oranges to receive light, and the development of the oranges will be improved.

It's healthier and tastes better.

Of course, this must first be the same as in Nanyi. The planting density of orange trees cannot be too high.

After hoeing, Nan Yi covered his forehead with his hands and looked up at the sky. There was a dark cloud in the northwest, slowly moving towards Shajiaotou.

At this moving speed, it will take almost three hours to reach Wenchangwei.

It just so happened that Nanyi still lacked rainfall data collection. He also needed to calculate the angle of rainfall so as to design a suitable camouflage angle to cover the position of the hidden camera.

"Dad, let me give you a gift." Nan Ruobing hid her little hand behind her back and said to Nan Yi mysteriously.

"what gift?"

"Close your eyes."

"Haha, you think your father and I are stupid. Show me what bug you caught."

"Hey hey hey."

Nan Ruobing took out her little hand from her back and held a stink bug, whose scientific name is also called the tea-winged stink bug.

"Damn girl, does it stink? Throw it away quickly."

There is a smell on the body of the stink bug, which cannot be said to be smelly, but it is very unpleasant and smells a little bit heady.

Nan Ruoping threw away the stinky bug and smelled her hands, which made her feel sick.

"It stinks, it really stinks, I'll step on it, I'll step on it, I'll step on you to death."

The little girl stepped hard, one by one, and crushed the bug into the mud.

Nan Yi shook his head and searched the orange tree for a while, and soon found a beetle. The whole body was black, with white spots on its back and two long tentacles, black and white.

"Here you go, this is fun."

"Dad, is this a beetle?"

"Well, beetle, it doesn't stink, and it's fun."

"Oh, can you bite?"

"Yes, but the bite force is not very strong. Just don't let it bite the soft meat."

Nan Yi handed the beetle to Nan Ruobing and let her play by herself. He took a can bottle and a pair of tweezers, picked up the caterpillars on the leaves of the orange trees one by one and put them in the can bottle.

The orange trees were quite lively, with not only caterpillars but also beetles, woodlice, rust ticks, stink bugs, snails, giant stag beetles, rhinoceros beetles, and red spider mites.

Nan Yi was too small and couldn't help it. He still had to deal with the big beetles, snails, giant stag beetles, and rhinoceros beetles.

In particular, the giant stag beetle and the unicorn beetle can dig holes in trees, and they are experts at digging holes.

Take out another empty can bottle and pack it up with long beetles, giant stag beetles and unicorns. These three things are full of vitality and can be taken back for Nan Ruopeng to play with slowly.

After catching all the big bugs, Nanyi took off the dichlorvos bottle hanging on the urine bucket, blocked the mouth of the bottle with cotton, tilted the bottle, dipped the cotton in a little dichlorvos, and used cotton to plug the hole in the orange tree.

live.

After finishing his business, Nan Yi went to look at the paddy fields again. Since no pesticides were used, there were a lot of bugs in the rice fields. As soon as people walked over, moths would fly in groups.

Nan Yi moved his hand above the ear of rice, and sticky silk threads stuck to his hand.

I clapped my hands to shake off the silk thread, bent down to pick up a handful of rice ears from the rice field, and twisted them with my hands. The rice ears were not full, and this year's production seemed to be high.

I picked a few grains of rice, threw them into my mouth, chewed them, and tasted them carefully.

It's a little waxy and a little sweet. It tastes better than those made with pesticides and chemical fertilizers, and it should be more nutritious.

It's just that the villages here are using chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the insects are all heading towards Wenchangwei. The pest infestation is too serious and the food production is not guaranteed.

"Nanyi."

"Auntie."

"You have also seen that the yield of this year's second crop of rice will be lower than last year, at least 30% less."

"It's okay. I made the plan. This year's production reduction will be on my shoulders. Auntie, before the rice is harvested, you can go to the neighboring villages and contact them to reserve some millet.

If the quantity is not enough, then pay more and pay less millet.

I will pay for the grain purchase and payment myself. Then you can make a list of how much you want and give it to Wei Min, and ask him to pay it for me first, and I will settle the calculation with him."

"Agricultural taxes and retentions are nothing. This year's mushroom sales are good, and the reclamation company also has a lot of money in its account."

"Well, Auntie, we must stick to green agriculture. If anyone thinks that the income is not enough, let him come to me and I will make up the money for him. If there are many people who have objections, then I will contract the reclamation company and pay him every year.

Everyone distributes money, and everyone just sits back and waits for the money to be divided."

"Nanyi, what you said is exaggerated. It's hard for others to say. No one in the reclamation company has any complaints. Although this year's income is only average, everyone can see that there is hope. Our bean sprouts and mushrooms are not worried at all.

If you sell it, nearby vegetable vendors will come to collect it."

"Is the price okay?"

“Not bad, the price is not low.”

"Take your time, visit more agricultural technology stations, and listen more to the opinions of agricultural technicians. During the Chinese New Year, I am discussing with my aunt what to do next year."
