Chapter 1286: . How to lick bricks (2/5)

New Zealand's vast population is scarce, and its resources are abundant. People are very conscious of frugality. From the last time Wang Bo bought a book, it can be seen that millions of books are treated as waste!
In winter, as soon as the sky is a little bit cold, the town and town begin to heat up wildly. Every family is afraid of being wronged, and the house is even equipped with a stove and air conditioning heating.
However, with so many stoves and burning so much, Wang Bo has not seen haze in New Zealand. As long as it is not cloudy, the sun is bright and the weather is fine.
Therefore, when he learned on the Internet that some brick houses in China pushed the haze to the stove in the north, he felt ridiculous, because the stove would not speak anyway, so that it could do anything.
Motak's wife put a large teapot on the table. They used a large cup. After filling it, Wang Bo felt that it was great to drink this cup.
In addition to the two of them, there are ranchers nearby who come to play. It has nothing to do when it snows, so I just took a short vacation.
"Hi, Moses, how are you doing? I heard that you fell off the horse some time ago?" Wang Bo said after sipping sweet and sour black tea.
The old Moses shook his head and said, "Don't talk about it, it. I thought I was going to receive the Lord's grace. I even saw the feet of God!"
"so serious?"
"Well, if it wasn't for the mercy of God, who kicked me off the sky, you can now go and put a wreath in front of my grave."
Listening to his humor, Wang Bo knew that it was not a big deal.
Someone said, "What did you get for Motakla? I just looked through the window, like feed?"
Wang Bodao: "Yes, that's the feed. One batch is alfalfa forage and one batch is green silage, mainly green corn."
Suddenly someone said regretfully: "Then he is really lucky, do you still need to lick the bricks? I also have a workshop to produce, you don't have to give me feed in return, you know, I am totally happy to help you for free, haha."
Several people laughed. Motak shook his head and said, "Forget it, Crete, aren't you going to raise livestock? What can you do with pasture?"
Crete laughed and said, "It's snowing well this winter, so it looks like there shouldn't be any drought in the next six months, so why don't I raise animals?"
"I really want to change the farm. The groundwater in this farm is too bad."
"You are pretty good there, man. I heard that someone bought a ranch in Cromwell some time ago. The price is low, but that is a foreigner who doesn't know about the ranch. The ranch he bought lacks groundwater and suffers a great loss. "
Wang Bo heard that the news was coming. It was still a Chinese who bought ranch, but it was a Chinese rich man on Wall Street in the United States. He wanted to take advantage of the heat of New Zealand land to buy land and make money.
Drinking sweet hot tea, the people talked for a while, and when the body was warm, Motak was going to bring someone to make licking bricks.
Wang Bo is the demand side. He cannot let Motak do it himself, so Pharaoh, who has not done any physical work for a long time, also rolls up his sleeves to enter the battle.
It was too cold outside, and he rolled up his sleeves and just put it out, and then put it down.
Motak transformed a warehouse into a workshop that could not only produce lick bricks, but also dry feed, beef jerky, cheese, and more.
The entire warehouse was clean and spotless, and the machine wiped the snow. Wang Bo walked around and said, "With this, your ranch and farm can be self-sufficient."
Motak laughed: "Every ranch should have such a production line, don't you mind?"
Wang Bo shrugged: "My ranch has a sheep oil production line and a cheese production line. I am preparing a yogurt production line."
Motak dissolved a bag of chemicals with water and said, "I heard about cheese and milk from you, but it's too expensive and I can't afford it."
Everything produced by the sunset ranch follows the high-end boutique route. Except for the township, which is sold to the townspeople as welfare, many others go abroad.
Wang Bo said: "If you like, you can pick it up at my ranch anytime, hey, what did you add?"
Motak patted the bag and said, "High-nitrogen urea is specially used to supplement the nitrogen of livestock. You also need to add sugar and honey, salt, mineral additives, vitamins, which are all necessary for livestock."
"Sugar and honey?"
"Of course, they're not stupid. If this thing doesn't taste good enough, why would they be interested in sticking to it?" Motak said.
After preparing a large barrel of nutrient solution, Motak blew his whistle. His workers took three large bags out of the hut. Wang Bo looked at it, and it was portland cement.
"Why use cement?" Wang Bo was surprised.
Motak spread his hand and said, "Because it's called licking bricks, can you turn around without cement? Rest assured, this will not eat them, in fact, they need some silicate particles in their rumen."
The nutrient solution and silicate are mixed, and some people add wheat bran powder and other dry powder, and then the mixer starts to buzz.
After stirring for nearly half an hour, Motak blew his whistle again, and someone manipulated the machine to start making lick bricks.
Molds are needed to make licking bricks. Motak introduced to Wang Bo: "In fact, in general, the size of the mold should be flexibly determined according to the number of cattle and sheep fed and the customary feeding method."
"The standard parameters are fine," Wang Bo nodded. "My ranch has been using standard mold parameters."
Motak's molds here are mostly made of wood and made rectangular, weighing about five kilograms.
A batch of molds were sent up, the contents of the bucket came out, and after waiting for an hour in the mold to harden slightly, it was necessary to buckle it out and use the mold for the next batch.
Licking bricks generally reach full hardening after 30 hours, and can only be used after they are completely dry.
The newly licked brick is brownish-yellow, with a sweet scent, just like a snack.
"The formula I use is slightly different from the feed factory, but the principle is the same. It can provide a good fermentation environment for the rumen of cattle and sheep, promote the rumen microorganisms to multiply, increase the feed intake of livestock and promote the digestion, absorption and utilization of fibrous feed. . "Motak explained after seeing him research.
Wang Bo said, "Yes, you are doing well."
Motak laughed: "Of course, buddy, let's love each other, and make the next batch of insect repellent bricks. It will definitely benefit the animals in the spring."
There are several types of licking bricks, common element licking bricks, mineral salt bricks, concentrate supplement bricks and insect repellent bricks.
Of course, Wang Bo will not refuse to accept Motak's kindness, so he can save it. (To be continued.)
