Chapter 88: The Elimination of the Four Pests Begins



Flies, mosquitoes, rats, sparrows, the eradication of the four pests has begun... As a member of the grocery store, Lin Tian did not run away.

Li Wenhua became the captain of the pest control team of the grocery store without knowing it.

The specific reason might be that he was hated because he slacked off every day, so during the morning meeting, he was elected as the captain of the pest control team.

When he returned to the office, Li Wenhua proudly announced to the other three members of the purchasing department: "In response to the patriotic health campaign, with the unanimous decision of our superiors, from today on, I will be the captain of our store's pest control team."

"Congratulations, congratulations"

"Congratulations……"

The three of them quickly came to support Li Wenhua.

"So starting today, Lin Tian, ​​Wang Mingyu, you two are also members of the Pest Control Team."

Wang Mingyu happily joined, while Lin Tian was like: ???

In fact, it was because people of that era had incomplete knowledge that sparrows were judged as pest birds. It is said that within just one year, more than 200 million sparrows were eliminated across the country, and more than 80,000 sparrows were killed in the capital city in one day.

You should know that sparrows are natural enemies of many pests, especially in rice fields and fruit forests. Killing a large number of sparrows across the country has also laid the groundwork for a large reduction in grain production next year.

"Captain, can I not join?" Lin Tian asked. He really didn't want to get involved in this.

As soon as Lin Tian opened his mouth, Li Wenhua knew what he wanted to do. Lin Tian was the king of slacking off.

"Don't worry, the leader asked someone to get a lot of poison baits, and we are just responsible for laying the baits." Li Wenhua said.

"That's good enough. I'll be responsible for setting the bait." Lin Tian chose an easy one.

Lin Tian continued, "And I saw that there were signs put up in front, which showed how many rats, sparrows, mosquitoes and flies were killed."

"Yes, so I have a heavy task as the captain of the pest control team," said Li Wenhua.

"Brother Li, don't worry, I support your work." Wang Mingyu's enthusiasm for this kind of activity, no, exercise, was no less than his dog-licking enthusiasm.

"Brother Li, where do the flies and mosquitoes come from in this season? Whoever wrote flies and mosquitoes on the sign should catch them!" Lin Tian laughed after reading it.

Li Wenhua's face turned dark. He was the one who wrote the sign. Then he remembered: Yes, where do the flies and mosquitoes come from in this season!

"Comrade captain, I'm going to set the poison bait." After Lin Tian said this, he picked up the two bags of poison bait that Li Wenhua brought back and ran away.

Li Wenhua: ???

But he had no good way to deal with Lin Tian, ​​so since he was willing to lay the poison bait, let him go.

Lin Tian went to the canteen to ask for some food and mixed the poison bait.

He borrowed a ladder, climbed onto the roof of the grocery store and began to set poison bait.

Then Lin Tian thought about it again. Who knows what tricks these people will come up with for the mice and sparrows? He decided to hide on the roof.

After thinking about it, Lin Tian took out three large baskets from the space, tied them up with ropes, set them up, put some food underneath, and sat down in the corner of the house.

Looking at the streets, there are busy crowds of people, catching sparrows and digging holes everywhere.

After a while, Lin Tian suddenly saw Zhu Siyuan leading two people to the door of the store.

From their conversation, I heard that these two people were from the street office and they came to coordinate the tasks.

"You, you, you, and the rest of you should listen to the notice from the street office and act together." Zhu Siyuan pointed at a few people at random when he arrived at the front desk of the store.

Among them was activist Wang Mingyu, who followed the street office staff outside and was assigned a designated seat.

Lin Tian stood on the roof and looked into the distance and knew it. The colorful flags in the distance were already waving. It seemed that these people were arranged to go to the colorful flags.

The main purpose of waving colorful flags is to prevent sparrows from falling, otherwise they will be exhausted to death in a short time.

Lin Tian looked at Wang Mingyu not far away and waved, while Wang Mingyu looked down on Lin Tian, ​​the lazy guy.

Lin Tian felt sorry for the fool Wang Mingyu, so he waved colorful flags all day, hoping that he could still move his arms tomorrow.

"Xiao Lin, how is the poison bait being laid?" Li Wenhua asked as he climbed up the ladder and poked his head out.

"It's all done, look!" Lin Tian pointed around.

Li Wenhua saw the rope and three baskets in Lin Tian's hand again, and asked with a frown, "Can you catch this thing?"

Lin Tian said indifferently: "I don't know, let's give it a try."

"I think this thing of yours is useless. Sparrows are very smart!" said Li Wenhua.

"Then what do you say we should do?" Lin Tian said. He didn't care about these things at all. He just wanted to find an excuse to slack off.

"How about I find you a slingshot? You can sit here and shoot birds." Li Wenhua made a suggestion.

Lin Tian thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. I'll just look at my basket."

"Okay." Li Wenhua looked at Lin Tian's basket, then looked at Lin Tian, ​​and went down the ladder.

You know what, there really was a stupid bird. It was probably frightened by the colorful flags waving everywhere, and it dived into Lin Tian’s basket.

If we talk about catching them seriously, we didn't catch a single one.

After fishing for the whole morning, Lin Tian stood up and looked at Wang Mingyu in the distance.

Then he signaled Wang Mingyu not to be lazy and to start waving quickly. Wang Mingyu was so angry that his face turned black.

"Comrade Wang Mingyu, how are you?" During the lunch break, everyone returned to the office. Lin Tian asked Wang Mingyu, who was eating with a lunch box and whose hands were shaking.

"Hmph!" Wang Mingyu snorted stubbornly.
