Zhou Ziwen's improvement did not attract the attention of others. He still went to the silkworm room every day to observe the condition of the silkworms.
As his silkworm rearing skills improved, he gained a deeper understanding and grasp of silkworm diseases.
That day, Wu Dagang saw Zhou Ziwen coming out of the silkworm breeding room and hurriedly walked up to him and asked, "Ziwen, how are the silkworms? Can they be cured?"
Zhou Ziwen nodded and said seriously, "Uncle Wu, after a few days of observation and treatment, the silkworms' condition has been brought under control to a certain extent. The new potion I prepared has helped them, and some of them have begun to eat mulberry leaves again."
Upon hearing this, Wu Dagang showed a long-lost smile on his face: "This is really great, I can finally put my heart at ease."
"Uncle Wu, we can't let our guard down just yet," Zhou Ziwen warned. "This virus is highly contagious. We need to thoroughly disinfect the silkworm room and monitor all the silkworms to ensure we don't miss any infected individuals."
"Yes, yes, you're right." Wu Dagang nodded repeatedly. "I'll arrange for someone to thoroughly disinfect the silkworm breeding room and have the members of the silkworm breeding team strengthen their observation of the silkworms."
"In addition, Uncle Wu, I suggest that we pay more attention to hygiene management during the silkworm breeding process in the future, disinfect the silkworm room regularly, and maintain appropriate temperature and humidity, so as to effectively prevent the occurrence of diseases." Zhou Ziwen gave his own suggestions.
"Ziwen, your suggestion is very good. I completely agree with it," Wu Dagang said affirmatively. "In the future, we will definitely strengthen the hygiene management of silkworm rearing to ensure the healthy growth of silkworms."
"Okay, then I'm relieved." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile, "Uncle Wu, I will continue to study the disease of silkworms and strive to find a complete cure as soon as possible."
"Okay, Ziwen, thank you for your hard work." Wu Dagang patted Zhou Ziwen on the shoulder, his eyes full of trust and expectation for Zhou Ziwen.
After learning the basics of sericulture skills, Zhou Ziwen gained a better understanding of sericulture.
Combining his medical skills, he reformulated the formula. Although the silkworm disease has not been completely cured, it has been initially controlled.
He also has some ideas on how to cure the disease, and what he lacks now is just the understanding of silkworm breeding technology.
He estimated that once his silkworm rearing skills were upgraded again, he would be able to cure the disease completely.
In the next few days, Zhou Ziwen continued to observe the condition of the silkworms while studying books related to sericulture in depth.
While studying and researching, his silkworm breeding skills and proficiency were also improving rapidly.
【Five Animal Exercises LV10 (861/1000)】
【Medical Skills Level 3 (1601/3000)】
Dog Training Level 10 (386/1000)
【Cooking Level 10 (84/1000)】
Planting Level 2 (1871/2000)
[Grow Mushroom LV10 (228/1000)]
【Bow and Arrow Crafting Level 7 (53/700)】
【Management Level 5 (273/500)】
[Silkworm Breeding Level 2 (125/200)]
[Feng Shui Level 0 (310/500)]
According to the panel, the silkworm breeding skill has reached level two and will reach level three in a few days.
In addition, his cooking skill officially reached level ten, becoming his fifth skill to reach level ten.
Bow and arrow crafting has also reached level seven, and is capable of making excellent bows and arrows.
Zhou Ziwen plans to go to the mountains one day to find some good materials to make a good bow.
After his silkworm rearing skills reached level two, Zhou Ziwen gained a new understanding of the situation of mulberry silkworms.
He used his medical knowledge to formulate some new medicines in the hope of improving the treatment effect.
At the same time, he also used the Qi in management and Feng Shui to improve the sanitary conditions of the silkworm room.
Under his transformation, the "qi" in the silkworm breeding room became more active and the sanitary conditions were further improved.
After all this is done, the silkworm's condition will gradually stabilize, and I believe it will be completely cured in a few days.
Thanks to Zhou Ziwen's efforts, the situation in the silkworm house is getting better and better.
As his silkworm rearing skills improved, he gained a deeper understanding of silkworm diseases and more precise treatment methods.
That day, Zhou Ziwen came to the silkworm room again and carefully observed the condition of the silkworms.
He found that after treatment with the new drug formula, the silkworms' appetite was significantly enhanced and their vitality was improved.
The silkworms, which were originally sick, have now begun to crawl actively on the mulberry leaves, greedily eating the fresh mulberry leaves.
"Ziwen, it seems that your new formula is really effective!" Wu Dagang said excitedly when he saw this scene.
Zhou Ziwen smiled and nodded. "Yes, Uncle Wu, the new prescription has played a very good role in promoting the recovery of the silkworms. I believe that as long as we continue to follow this treatment plan, the silkworms will be able to fully recover soon."
Wu Dagang nodded repeatedly, praising Zhou Ziwen's medical skills and silkworm breeding techniques. "Ziwen, this time we are so lucky to have you. If it weren't for you, our losses this year would have been huge."
In fact, this situation has occurred in previous years.
But at that time they had no choice but to watch the silkworms die in large numbers, and ultimately gained nothing.
It is precisely because of this that they have not dared to expand the scale of silkworm production.
Zhou Ziwen waved his hand modestly and said, "Uncle Wu, you're too kind. I'm just doing my best to help the village solve its problems."
"Ziwen, do you think we can expand the scale of silkworm breeding in the future?"
Looking at Zhou Ziwen's young yet confident appearance, Wu Dagang suddenly asked.
"Expand the scale of silkworm production?"
Zhou Ziwen was stunned, not quite understanding what Wu Dagang meant.
However, when he saw the expectant expression on Wu Dagang's face, he seemed to understand a little.
"Uncle Wu is worried that the current situation will recur after the scale of silkworm breeding expands?"
Zhou Ziwen asked.
Wu Dagang nodded, a look of worry on his face. "Yes, Ziwen, you know, silkworm farming is quite risky. With you here this year, we've weathered the storm, but what about next year? And the year after? What will we do if something like this happens again?"
Zhou Ziwen understood Wu Dagang's concerns. After a moment's contemplation, he said, "Uncle Wu, I understand your concerns. However, I believe that as long as we take preventative measures and improve our silkworm rearing techniques, it's not impossible to expand our scale. Furthermore, the larger the scale, the more significant the benefits will be."
For Zhou Ziwen, this problem is actually easy to solve, as his silkworm breeding skills are already being used.
The higher the skill level, the more powerful he is.
By next year, his silkworm-raising skills will probably be at the maximum level.
By then, not to mention raising silkworms, even pairing silkworms with other species will be possible.
Of course, he actually had other ideas.
He has limited AFK slots, and AFK Silkworm Raising Skills is totally unprofitable.
Instead of wasting time, you might as well keep your breeding skills idle.
Breeding skills are broad and profound, encompassing everything.
Anything that is alive can be cultivated.
Livestock such as pigs, cattle and sheep...
Poultry chickens, ducks, geese...
Fish, shrimp, crabs and shells in the water...
And so on and so forth.
From this perspective, the idle farming skill is much more cost-effective than the idle silkworm breeding skill. (End of this chapter)
