With the arrival of summer, the harvest on the farm has begun.
The earlier potatoes are planted, the earlier they can be harvested.
Anyway, potatoes have strong growth capabilities and can grow rapidly in the soil even in cold environments.
The reason why so many potatoes were planted in Siberia was that other crops had difficulty surviving, but potatoes could.
The people who can best understand how tenacious the vitality of potatoes is are probably the Japanese prisoners of war.
They were almost frozen to death, but the potatoes were still alive and well.
On the day when the farm was harvesting potatoes, the resort manager Zheng Youcai also came.
It was the order he signed with Xu Yang.
Because Xu Yang's potatoes were so good, he signed a long-term contract directly.
This belongs to the high-end market, and the price offered is more than twice the market price.
Zheng Youcai is also one of Xu Yang's business partners.
Zheng Youcai came to the farm and Xu Yang wandered around with him.
Always entertain.
He looked at the million-level tractors working in the fields and was amazed.
Ordinary farms do not have tractors of this level.
The little fox and the little raccoon were playing on the grass. When they saw a stranger coming in, they immediately jumped and ran away.
Then hide in the bushes and observe secretly.
The sika deer and horses are free-range and can move freely around the farm.
The big geese in the goose house made bursts of cackles, as if they were ready to attack people at any time.
From this perspective, the farm is quite lively.
"Old Xu, your farm is really nice."
"I have seen the blueberries and cherries in the greenhouse, and they are all very good varieties."
“Can we place some orders?”
Zheng Youcai asked.
Hearing this, Xu Yang smiled and replied:
"The blueberries are all sold out, but the cherries haven't started yet."
"If you want to order it, I'd definitely welcome it."
"It depends on the market price at that time, we can negotiate."
When Zheng Youcai came to Xu Yang's farm this time, he clearly felt that the farm had undergone great changes.
It is more lively and lively than before.
Although the living area is still a dilapidated bungalow, the row of greenhouses arranged together clearly give off a sense of grandeur.
The two were talking about business, while the employees were busy.
Zheng Xiangqian looked in the direction of Xu Yang and asked Li Shan:
"Who is that person? He looks like a big boss."
Li Shan responded: "The resort manager, we sell potatoes to him, and he is also a customer of our farm."
"Last year, the owner went to many places and negotiated a lot of business with big clients."
"Otherwise our farm benefits are so good."
"It's all because of the owner's ability."
Hearing what Li Shan said, Zheng Xiangqian's eyes also showed a hint of surprise.
The farm is indeed developing well in all aspects.
It develops much faster than similar farms.
Seeing customers coming, the employees work very hard.
Soon, bags of potatoes were packed and neatly arranged.
The truck loaded with potatoes has arrived and some of them will be shipped away today.
The sales channels are mature and everything seems exceptionally smooth.
Xu Yang didn't need to keep an eye on what happened next. He and Zheng Youcai had a dinner party in the evening. Xu Yang called Ma Wen to come along and they also had a meal and drinks in the evening.
When doing business, these things are inevitable.
This has always been the case in the North.
The good thing is that they always eat and drink after discussing business, which is much better than those who brag before discussing business.
noon the next day.
Xu Yang was still a little dizzy after getting up.
He walked out into the yard, where the employees were still weighing potatoes.
Since Xu Hongshan is watching here, Xu Yang doesn't have to worry about anything.
He walked around, and at this moment, he saw Xiaohua appear outside the farm, calling Xu Yang across the railing, as if something happened.
Xu Yang sobered up immediately.
"Xiaohua, why are you here today?"
Xu Yang saw its appearance and asked with concern.
Xiaohua had a worried look on her face, as if something had happened.
Xu Yang realized it was related to Luna.
"What? Luna is about to give birth?"
"Come on, I'll go with you to take a look."
Seeing Xiaohua like this, Xu Yang no longer cared about the things on the farm.
Anyway, he doesn't have to do anything on the farm.
He gave his employees a few words and then hurried off into the jungle with Xiaohua.
This time, the man and the leopard were very fast.
Xu Yang walked quickly with his feet moving fast.
He has good physical strength and is also flexible.
This time I traveled light, so I went much faster than before.
Xiaohua was also jogging.
When they passed through the woods, a little squirrel ran out to see them.
Seeing them, the little squirrels were not surprised.
Animals living in the forest have a certain understanding of their surroundings.
They know very well which animals are dangerous and which animals are safe.
Xiaohua is considered the boss of this mountain.
After all, there are no other ferocious beasts.
However, Xiaohua doesn't hunt easily, and only catches rabbits and pheasants, so the small animals are not that afraid of it. They just hide and observe.
Xu Yang and Xiaohua walked all the way inside, and soon he came to Luna's side.
At this moment, Luna was lying on her side on the ground, gasping for breath.
There is a clean lawn around.
There were a lot of flies flying around, but after Xu Yang appeared, these flies flew far away.
Luna's belly was rising and falling, and it looked like she was about to give birth.
Pretty fast.
Leopards usually give birth to their babies in about three months.
It's June now, almost.
"Giving birth in the woods, there's no hot water, you have to rely on yourself, I can't help you much."
Seeing Luna's look, Xu Yang said with concern.
He touched Luna's head.
The black panther became more and more trusting of Xu Yang, and its mood seemed to have calmed down a little.
Xiaohua was obviously a little panicked. She paced back and forth, not knowing what to do.
Xu Yang touched Luna's abdomen, feeling the life inside.
"Don't worry, everything is fine."
"I've seen vets deliver lambs, and in this case it was a natural birth."
"You don't need to worry too much about giving birth, but you do need to pay attention to postpartum care."
"Many animals become infected with diseases after giving birth."
While comforting Luna, Xu Yang talked to Xiaohua.
Following the role of animal nanny, Xu Yang has acquired a new identity:
Delivering animals.
It's been a busy day.
Xu Yang stayed with Luna like this until about six o'clock in the afternoon, when Luna began to show signs of life.
Xu Yang and Xiao Hua were both there.
The process of giving birth to the little leopards went smoothly. After a while, two squishy little leopards were born.
Then, Luna held the little leopards and began to clean their hair.
"Two, sure!"
Xu Yang's eyes lit up with joy.
The little leopard is finally born!
Waited for a long time.
The two little leopards closed their eyes, curled up into a ball, and their bodies trembled slightly.
Their four little paws are still pink, but the color of the hair on their bodies can already be seen.
One is leopard print and the other is pure black.
Perfect genetic distribution.
The two little guys exactly match the colors of their parents.
Xu Yang was happy because he had another little leopard to pet.
He had raised them since they were little, and he didn't believe that these two leopards wouldn't be close to him.
Compared to tigers, leopards are more approachable to humans.
Especially cheetahs. When they grow up, they are very close to humans and will actively approach photographers.
Unfortunately, there are no cheetahs here, only leopards.
But the leopard is stronger, thicker, and more comfortable to the touch.
Xu Yang touched the black panther and gently touched the newborn cub.
At this time, the little leopards have not opened their eyes yet, and their only knowledge of the outside world is through smell.
Because Xu Yang was next to them, their pink little noses twitched, taking in Xu Yang's scent.
That's considered acquaintance.
After spending some time with the leopard family, Xu Yang stood up and said to them:
"I didn't bring a bottle today. I'll come over to feed you tomorrow."
"It's so late, I have to go back today."
"Xiaohua, you better perform well and work harder."
"He's also a leopard who's a father."
After saying that, Xu Yang smiled, waved, and turned to leave.
The two leopards looked at Xu Yang's receding back for a while, and then they began to take care of the little leopard.
Generally speaking, when leopard cubs are born, their mothers will hide them and take care of them carefully.
And they have to go out hunting, which is very hard.
When they grow up a little, they will take the cubs to meet their father.
In nature, males of many animals are not responsible for raising their babies.
But Xiaohua is different.
This guy has very special habits.
From a human perspective, this is a "responsible and good leopard."
After Luna gives birth to a baby, it will be responsible for taking care of it.
Luna was also relieved.
You followed it correctly.
The two leopards still have a good relationship.
Xu Yang went all the way back to the farm.
Although it was a little dark, Xu Yang was very familiar with the mountain, so it didn't cause him any trouble.
But they encountered a wild boar on the way. Xu Yang scared it a little and it ran away quickly.
This wild boar is much smarter.
Obviously knows who is the big brother.
After Xu Yang returned to the farm, he still felt excited.
Two little leopards were born, and now there is something to pet.
He didn't plan to tell anyone else the news.
If the little leopard is targeted by bad guys, it will be more trouble than gain. (End of this chapter)
