Leaving the bustling city behind, he returns to a quiet and picturesque mountain village to become a leisurely farmer.

Chapter 254: Insect Outbreakshuhaige.net

Jiang Che hadn't had a few days of leisure after returning home when the village chief and several elders suddenly came.

"Is Xiao Che home? Something happened in the fields, come and take a look."

The old village chief rushed in anxiously, grabbed Jiang Che and prepared to run out.

"Grandpa Village Chief, what happened? Why are you so anxious?"

Jiang Che held the old village chief and asked.

"Oh my! The vegetables you asked us to plant are all infested with insects. Even the pesticides we used aren't working. What do you think we should do?"

The old village chief slapped his thigh and said.

The elders behind him were also extremely anxious and wanted Jiang Che to come up with a decision.

"Ah, there is such a thing, then let's go and take a look."

Jiang Che was shocked. Why were there bugs breaking out again now? It had never happened before!

Tang Tian was also panicking. These vegetables had been reserved by her family a long time ago. If something went wrong, it would be very troublesome.

Without any delay, Jiang Che took Tang Tian and the old village chief and quickly ran into the fields.

"Xiao Che, look! These vegetables are full of bugs. What should we do?"

When he arrived at the field, the old village chief pulled apart the leaves of the vegetables, and his face was covered with layers of black insects.

There are also caterpillars and aphids wriggling on the leaves. It's a serious situation that so many insects have gathered on one vegetable!

Jiang Che's face looked very ugly, and the size of these insects seemed to be much larger than ordinary insects.

These vegetables are really nutritious. These insects have become fat and strong after eating them.

"What should Jiang Che do? Are all these vegetables going to be ruined?"

Tang Tian was very anxious when she saw so many bugs on the vegetables.

The harvest is about to begin, how could this happen?

"It depends on the situation. If it's not a big deal, there might still be a chance to remedy the situation."

"I'm afraid that won't work, Xiao Che. Grandpa, I checked, and all the vegetables in the village are like this."

"Didn't Xiao Che tell us before that we couldn't fight farmers? We listened, but who knew something like this would happen?"

"At first, when there weren't many insects, I tried spraying some pesticides, but the insects still broke out the next day."

"Xiao Che, judging by the situation, I estimate that within two days, all these vegetables will be eaten up!"

The old village chief was so anxious that he kept stamping his feet, and the elders around him were also in grief.

When they heard Jiang Che say that the minimum return was five yuan, they planted vegetables without hesitation.

Even some of the edamame and eggplant seedlings that were planted before had to be pulled out, but this situation has occurred now.

How can they not feel sad?

Jiang Che frowned. How should he deal with so many bugs?

He really didn't know that there seemed to be no other good solution besides spraying pesticides.

But the vegetables need to be picked now, so we can’t use pesticides anymore, and there hasn’t been any rain recently.

If you use pesticides, people will die!

Moreover, Jiang Che originally advocated green and environmentally friendly vegetables. If pesticides were used, it would go against his original intention.

Just as Jiang Che was thinking of a solution, other uncles and aunts in the village also gathered around.

The same thing happened to their vegetables, and seeing Jiang Che here they also wanted to ask what was going on.

This incident is very strange because these insects only break out on these vegetables.

All the other crops in the fields are fine, which is really puzzling.

This makes people wonder whether so many insects are produced because there is no pesticide.

"Xiao Che, do you have any ideas? Why don't you say something?"

"Yes, Xiao Che, my family pulled out sesame seeds from the ground to grow your vegetables. What if they get eaten by bugs? Oh my God!"

A woman wearing a headscarf clapped her hands and stamped her feet, crying and shouting.

The crowd immediately dispersed and let the woman out.

Jiang Che knew this person, he was a famous loud speaker in the village.

If the villagers want to know something, they can always ask her. After all, Jiang Che has to call her Third Aunt.

"Aunt San, don't get excited. Give me some time. I will definitely solve this problem perfectly for everyone."

"I promise here that if all these vegetables are eaten by insects."

"How about I compensate you all at five yuan per kilogram based on the actual yield per mu of land?"

It was he who proposed this matter, so naturally he could not let the already poor villagers bear it.

But if this matter really cannot be salvaged, it will be a huge blow to my reputation!

If the villagers were asked to plant the same crops again in the future, they might not believe it.

So this issue needs to be resolved. Planting in the wild is really troublesome.

These vegetables soaked in spiritual water are not only loved by humans, but also by herbivores.

Hearing Jiang Che say this, the elders looked at each other in confusion.

Even Third Aunt, who had been jumping up and down just now, calmed down and stared at Jiang Che with her triangular eyes.

"Xiao Che, is everything you said true?"

Third Aunt asked in disbelief.

"Of course it's true. I think these vegetables will be ready for harvest in about five days."

"I'll try my best to find a solution. If there's really no other solution, please come to my house in five days."

Jiang Che stood on the edge of the field and made a promise to everyone.

"Oh, you are so honest, kid. You make us elders feel embarrassed."

An old man who was Jiang Che's grandfather shook his head and said with a wry smile.
