Chapter 141: Stealing the Eagle
Xu Xiaoxue's eyes turned.

Because she caught the couple selling fake seeds, she was delayed on the grassland for two or three days.

During these few days, she saw almost no traces of foxes, wolves or snakes, and only occasionally heard the cry of eagles.

I thought that the long-term use of drugs not only caused the mice to develop resistance, but also harmed the mice's natural enemies.

Manual labor, engineering machinery, and chemical control methods can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause.

To cure the root cause, we must restore the ecology of the grassland.

But she was here on vacation and didn't want to cause any trouble.

After two days of delay, it was time to move on. After looking at all the mice, she wanted to look for traces of other wild animals, even wolves.

Then go to Hexi to appreciate the unique wonders of Mogao Grottoes and the natural wonders of Crescent Lake.

Finally, I went to see the seed production in the name of work and got two more days of vacation.

perfect.

She continued forward, looking for wolves, foxes, and falcons.

……

Guo Yang was also wondering if there was a more ecological way.

Deep plowing by tractors combined with aerial pest control has an immediate effect, leaving rats nowhere to hide.

After a few days, there was no large-scale rat activity on the grassland.

But the cost is also extremely high.

The large aircraft for rat extermination was rented, and the fee started to be charged as soon as it took off from Ordos.

Other visible costs include rodent poison bait, labor, technicians, aircraft sorties, engineering equipment, vehicles, etc.

The money for the tractors organized by Jiahe had not yet been calculated, but Guo Yang came at the government's word.

In addition to personally participating and accumulating natural energy, the government also promised to pay and invite Jiahe to participate in grassland management.

What he understands as grassland management here is ecological management.

Siqinbatu brought bad news.
"The locust and rodent control headquarters has only raised 300 million yuan in total. Funds are very tight, so Jiahe's money will have to wait a while."

Guo Yang concentrated his attention and calculated that based on the prevention and control cost of 7.5 yuan per hectare, Meng Province would need at least 5000 million yuan for rat eradication.

However, only 300 million has been allocated so far. Compared with the large areas of grassland affected, the existing medicines and funds are nothing but a drop in the bucket.

Siqinbatu said: "The 70 crawler tractors of YTO Group were also purchased in the name of a private company."

Guo Yang understood that the familiar smell had returned.

"The headquarters also proposed another method, which is to repay the money with land, or to waive or reduce the rent."

"What place?" Guo Yang asked.

Siqinbatu paused, his face unchanged, "Deserts, sandy land, saline-alkali land, and even grasslands are all fine, but Jiahe must promise to manage them."

Guo Yang exclaimed, "Oh my goodness, your calculations are too loud. You're not only losing the wife but also the army. He still has to pay for it."

Seeing that Guo Yang was interested, Siqinbatu continued to add fuel to the fire, "There are five major deserts and four major sandy lands in Meng Province. The saline-alkali land and grassland areas are also vast. Jiahe can choose from them. The specific area can be discussed later."

Guo Yang really fell for it.

The existence of the seed shop and natural energy is destined for Jiahe to go further and further in the field of environmental restoration.

However, deserts, sandy land, and saline-alkali land are basically unwanted lands, and Jiahe can easily transfer them everywhere.

On the contrary, the grassland is more attractive.

Guo Yang made a decision.

"Jiahe agreed to the proposal of paying the money with land. We chose grassland. The larger the area, the better."

Siqinbatu smiled and said, "The area is easy to say. Inner Mongolia has no shortage of grasslands. Well, the command center hopes that Jiahe will increase its investment. The pressure of rodent control is too great. In addition to Urad, Hulunbuir, and Xilin Gol, there are still large areas of grassland rodent infestation that have not been controlled."

"No problem. I also want to see the grassland sooner. If there is any rodent infestation, we can kill it together."

Siqinbatu touched his beard unnaturally and said, "In fact, the command center has already reserved a piece of land in Urad." There is no choice.

Guo Yang soon saw the grassland allocated to him. Although it was called grassland, it was actually a stretch of Gobi Desert, a stretch of rocky mountains, and a stretch of grassland.

At first glance, there was no grass on the grassland, but there were many rat holes. To his surprise, Guo Yang saw a hunting falcon circling in the sky in the distance!
After looking at the map, I found that this place is close to the Bayinwenduer Desert and belongs to Ula Houqi Banner. Most of it is an arid mountain basin.

"This used to be a grassland with wolves, foxes and everything else. But later on, in order to develop animal husbandry, herders killed foxes and wolves, and the sheep multiplied in large numbers, so the grassland was eaten away."

The herders must all dislike this grassland.

Jiahe still needs to be governed.

Guo Yang asked: "How do you fold the area?"

"It depends on how much more money Jiahe is willing to invest in rodent control. The surrounding 50 acres of grassland can be given to Jiahe, rent-free for 20 years. After 20 years, the market price will be calculated. Of course, this is limited to land."

"As for governance requirements, the command means that at least it cannot continue to deteriorate."

20 years?
Guo Yang roughly knew the lease price of grassland in later generations, which was about 10-60 yuan per mu, and sometimes even more expensive.

Assuming 10 yuan, the annual rent is 500 million yuan, which means 20 million yuan in 1 years.

Plus interest, and inflation.

My goodness! The command center wants Jiahe to fill the funding gap for rat eradication in the province!
The accounts are unclear, governance will not be achieved overnight, and the benefits are even more distant.

But this is land alas!

And the hunting falcon!
Will there be any sculptures?
It can also accumulate natural energy.

Guo Yang was ready to answer it.

The specific details still need to be discussed between the group headquarters and the Mongolian Province, but rat extermination is urgent, and Jiahe has allocated a sum of funds in advance.

The grass was also taken down.

……

Siqinbatu introduced the expert to Guo Yang.

Qiao Feng from the Bameng Grassland Station is a senior animal husbandry expert and also an expert in grassland rodent control.

Guo Yang actually really wanted to know whether Qiao Feng would use the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms to kill rats.

But he didn’t dare to ask, for fear of being beaten.

The two were walking on the grass.

Behind me is a yurt, but it is a house with a civil structure. It is round and has a vaulted roof, which can dissipate the strong force of the wind and allow it to survive for a relatively long time.

"Mice are also an essential link in the grassland ecological chain. Maintaining a certain number of them is conducive to the ecological balance of the grassland."

"The best approach is to adopt comprehensive prevention and control measures, such as cultivating natural enemies of rodents. There are reports of silver-black foxes being released and trained in the wild in Ning Province."

Guo Yang said: "I have seen hunting falcons."

Qiao Feng smiled and said, "Oh, there are indeed a lot of hunting falcons here. We can consider hiring hawks to kill rats."

A bell rang.

Qiao Feng took out a flip phone from his pocket and frowned when he answered it.

"Hold on, I'll bring someone right over."

Then he hurriedly said to Guo Yang: "Let's go, someone is stealing the eagle!"

Guo Yang was shocked. What a coincidence! Could it be on the grass over there? Fuck.

"Get in my car."

"Are we the only two going first?"

Qiao Feng took out his cell phone.

"I contacted the police station. There's an old hunter watching over there, and he was afraid those people would run away."
