Chapter 12: Seedlings Enter
The next day, Qi Zheng took Chen Lingshan to the company to report and introduced Zhang Zehong and Xie Kaiji to meet her. Looking at Chen Lingshan, who is beautiful but not lacking in shrewdness, the two big men warmly welcomed her, laughing that the company finally had a beautiful girl joining, and even the enthusiasm for work has increased a lot.
After Qi Zheng instructed Xie Kaiji to slowly hand over the financial management to Chen Lingshan, an important task for him next was to assist his father Qi Jiande to build the personnel framework of the Daling Village Development Company and form a qualified management team.
Qi Zheng didn't expect the villagers of Daling Village alone to be able to manage the company's operations in an orderly manner, and his father Qi Jiande's energy alone was also limited, and it was impossible to do everything himself.
In order to avoid suspicion, the father did not directly serve as the management, but was responsible for coordinating the balance between the company's development and the villagers to avoid the accumulation of some contradictions between the two sides.
According to the plan, the company will build a hardened road in Daling Village and to the town to facilitate vehicle traffic. The engineering team contacted soon settled in the village road construction site of Daling Village and carried out the construction of the project in full swing. This piece is supervised and cooperated by his father Qi Jiande, and Qi Zheng is very relieved.
The sixth uncle, Qi Jiancheng, took advantage of the free time after the busy farming, gathered a group of strong laborers, and went to Sanmuling to build a poultry farm.
Sanmuling in the west of the village is about more than 600 acres, belongs to the forest land of the village collective, spacious and open, the slope is not steep, between 5~30 degrees, the grass source is luxuriant, there is a clean stream nearby; away from the village, the traffic is relatively convenient, it is an excellent place suitable for breeding farms nearby.
There is a small tributary of the Yanshui River passing through the north side of Sanmuling, which is suitable for wild duck farms, and the south is leeward and sunny, and the terrain is relatively dry, which is used as a farm for native chickens.
The men selected by Uncle Cheng are all in charge of each family, and they don't need to be greeted, they are already in place, pick up the tools in their hands and start working. Today's main task is to clear the mountains of weeds and snakes and rats that threaten the poultry, and make a place for the chicken and duck coops, which can be built when the materials arrive tomorrow.
Uncle Cheng, as a recognized breeder in the village, has his own set, and it is simply half the effort to do this.
In addition, there are many people who are easy to do, and on August 10, Qi Zheng got the notice that the construction of the farm was basically completed, so he asked Zhang Zehong to go over for inspection.
......
The construction of a wild duck farm must conform to the wild habits of wild ducks. Half of the scaffolding should be used as a rest room, and half as an open-air activity venue, and the activity venue should be a pond or a small river.
According to the standards set by Qi Zheng, the Daling Village Wild Duck Farm includes a wild duck house, a wild duck flat, a duck beach, a water sports field and a guardian's house.
The duck house is divided into a duckling house and a rearing duck house, and the house conditions required during the brooding period of mallard ducks are relatively high, with the goal of improving the survival rate of brooding. It is required to be facing the sun, good heat preservation, playing in water, excrement, and easy to clean. The house is divided into small rooms of about 4 square meters in size, so as to facilitate the breeding of ducklings in small groups and avoid the consequences of ducklings being crushed and suffocated.
The requirements for rearing duck houses are not high, and they are relatively simple sheds that are used for roosting at night. Use bamboo and wood to build a "human" herringbone bar, and cover it with thatch, so that it is warm in winter and cool in summer. The floor of the house and the duck flat are both concrete floors, which are inclined to the water surface, allowing ducks to enter and exit freely.
Build a sewage ditch along the junction of the Wild Duck Ping and the water sports field. The ditch is paved with a fence plate, so that the manure of the cleaning and washing flows out of the breeding area along the ditch, so as not to pollute the water field, keep the water field clean, and reduce the occurrence of diseases.
The whole activity place is closed with a net, the height of the large net is about 2 meters from the water surface, and the fence is added to the bottom of the water around it, and it is connected with the sky net to form a closed body to prevent wild ducks from escaping.
The native chicken farm is relatively simple, the chicken coop construction is close to the grazing field, the wall is built with hollow bricks, the roof is covered with cement tiles, and three east-west chicken coops are built at a distance of one kilometer, sitting north and facing south. A sturdy fence is set up around the perimeter to prevent chickens from being stolen or escaping.
The two farms have been installed with hydropower, net and other facilities, in accordance with the average 10,000 head of the farm stock standard construction, there is still room for expansion, if necessary.
Patrolling all the way, under the introduction of Uncle Cheng and Xie Kaiji, Qi Zheng and Zhang Zehong expressed great satisfaction.
In such a short period of time, with such a high degree of completion, what else can be said except for vigorous praise?
After walking out of the farm, Qi Zheng asked Qi Jiancheng: "Uncle Cheng, have you arranged all the employees of the farm, I have asked Zehong to contact the nursery to send the seedlings over." ”
Qi Jiancheng smiled heartily: "Xiao Zheng, don't worry, I have already told them, the first batch of people I picked are all familiar and easy to use." ”
Qi Zheng nodded: "That's good, Uncle Cheng, the seedlings will be delivered tomorrow, and it depends on you to come and palm." ”
"Hehe, no problem, with me, no one can get us with shoddy. Qi Jiancheng said confidently.
Hearing this, Qi Zheng and Zhang Zehong both gave him a thumbs up.
......
At noon the next day, the hatchlings were parked outside the farm, and the chirping of the seedlings resounded throughout Mimuling.
Uncle Cheng, who had already come to the farm first, sat there and smoked and chatted with Yang Song, the owner of the nursery. Both of them are good at raising poultry, so naturally there are countless topics, and they talk non-stop when they meet.
Boss Yang had cooperated with Qi Zheng before, and the poultry seedlings of One Manor had always been provided by him. This time, his nursery was opened in Min Province, and it happened that Qi Zheng came back to build a farm, and seeing that a big business was about to come as soon as it opened, he responded very positively to Zhang Zehong, who took the initiative to contact.
"Boss Qi, I brought 3,000 mallard duck chicks this time, 6,000 Qingyuan hemp chicken chicks, and the next batch will be delivered to you in half a month. Seeing Qi Zheng coming, Boss Yang beckoned him to come over and prepare to check and select the seedlings.
The duck seedling breed is naturally the mallard, which is the main object of artificial domestication among the wild ducks. Boss Yang, a native chicken breed, recommended Qingyuan hemp chicken in their nursery, also known as Qingyuan free-range chicken. Because the hen has small black spots on the back feathers, it is called hemp chicken. It is famous for its small size, developed subcutaneous and intermuscular fat, thin skin and soft bones, and is known as one of the small broiler chickens exported by live chickens in China, and has a long reputation in the Hong Kong and Macao markets.
Although Qi Zheng only ordered 10,000 chicken seedlings and duck seedlings, Boss Yang's farm in Min Province has just opened, and there are not many farmers who choose to raise wild ducks and local chickens, so it is impossible to supply enough seedlings at one time for a while.
But after receiving Qi Zheng's order, he immediately expanded the scale of incubation, and it could be fully supplied after half a month. He apologized for this.
They are all acquaintances, and Qi Zheng is not embarrassed by him. This is also good, so that the seedlings can adapt to the environment in batches, and it is harmless to be a little earlier and a little later.
Qi Zheng scanned the seedlings in the cage with his divine thoughts, and roughly felt the vitality of the seedlings. It was found that most of them were healthy and lively seedlings, and occasionally a few were not too vigorous, but the proportion was small.
Qi Zheng nodded secretly and motioned to Uncle Cheng and them to check and select the seedlings.
At least judging from this batch of seedlings, Boss Yang is still on the road.
Because in the eyes of the layman, there is basically no difference between each one.
But in the eyes of experienced poultry handles, that's different. Poultry handlebars can distinguish the sex and health of chicks by their body shape, nostrils, paws and movements.
Selecting seedlings is also a technical job, to see the eyes of the seedlings, whether the eyes can be opened normally, whether they are very spiritual. If the parent's nutrition is not good or the incubation conditions are not good, the technology is not good, its eyes may be dull; to see whether the mouth and limbs of the chick are ruddy and smooth; to see the navel of the chick, the navel protein yolk of the normal chick is well absorbed, its navel should be very clean, there is no feces and eggshells on it; to look at the claws of the chicks, the limbs of the normally hatched chicks are very bright, and there is no dehydration.
Congenitally healthy seedlings, strong eating ability, strong physique, good development, fast growth, and high feeding remuneration. If you have a large belly, a protruding belly button, or a head with your eyes closed, you are slow to respond to the outside world, and you don't have the strength to struggle outward in your hand, it is an inferior product.
In addition, there is a key procedure for selecting young seedlings, which is to prevent unscrupulous traders from mixing some low-priced unscrupulous varieties into them to cheat money - after all, these days, it is embarrassing to say that they are in business without cheating.
Qi Zheng could roughly feel the health of the seedlings with his divine thoughts, but whether it was genuine or not depended on Uncle Cheng and them to carefully examine it.
So everyone is familiar with each other, Qi Zheng still asked Uncle Cheng to check carefully, and it is best to do business with both goods and money in person, so as not to be unclear about each other in the event of disputes in the future.
But I think that even if it is to win over Qi Zheng, a big customer, Boss Yang will not be so short-sighted.
As expected, in the end, except for picking out some seedlings with poor mental heads, there was no problem with anything else.
Because it is a large number of purchases, chicken seedlings are counted as eight cents, duck seedlings are counted as nine cents, Qi Zheng happily settled the account with Boss Yang.
"Boss Qi is really a cheerful person, such a pleasant cooperation, I hope it can be maintained for a long time!" Seeing the scale of the farm, Boss Yang naturally hopes to always cooperate with each other.
"As long as Boss Yang can maintain such a supply quality, this kind of cooperation can naturally be maintained for a long time!" Qi Zheng was very satisfied with his supply this time, and also gave him a verbal promise.
After greetings, the two agreed on the time of the next delivery, and Boss Yang drove away with the workers without mentioning it.
Uncle Cheng was busy beckoning people to move the seedlings to the shed, and Qi Zheng naturally didn't watch it, and a group of men were so busy that they were sweating.
The cages are woven from bamboo strips, about a foot high, in the shape of a cylinder, and are hollowed out around them to prevent the seedlings from suffocating due to lack of air circulation. The cage is also covered with straw to protect the seedlings from too much shock when transporting.
These cages are all huge guys, all of them are more than 1 meter in diameter, and with the seedlings jumping around in them, it is really hard work to carry them.
After two hours of busy work, everyone finally put all the seedlings into a special shed according to the scheduled arrangement, which is considered to have completed today's work.
Today's Miki Ridge is full of life.
