Chapter Thirty-Six: The Chicks Have Arrived

Three days later, Zhou Heng's family successfully contracted the lake.

Since the lake was new and had not been named before, Zhou Heng gave it a name called "Longxi Lake", which is the same as the name of the village.

This is another property in the family, except for the half of the mountain.

Zhou Faqiang stood on a big rock on the shore, inspected the lake with his hands behind his back, and looked at his own industry, quite pointing out the momentum of the country, full of pride.

He looked around and said suspiciously, "It seems to be a little bigger, isn't it? ”

The surface of the lake measured that day was 80 acres, but these days, the water has been lived, no, the water area seems to have become larger.

Zhou Heng was also very happy that he had taken advantage of it.

If it can rise to 100 acres, it will really make a lot of money.

The formation of the lake is also interesting, originally it was just a low-lying mountain, but now it is filled with water, and the shore has formed a relatively flat slope.

Originally, the shape of the mountain varied, with steep and flat shapes, but when the water level reached here, it seemed like a flat slope.

And the area is not small.

Zhou Heng said: "When I was a child, I herded cattle, and I liked to find such a place to put it, the ground is big, and the cattle can eat whatever they want, so you don't have to look at it all the time." ”

His memories of being a child are literally memories of herding cattle.

I don't know why, herding cattle is a thing that doesn't require physical strength, but when I was a child, I was very reluctant and felt very hated to do this.

Maybe it's too boring, it's at the age of fun, but you have to guard the cow every day, so it's annoying.

But now that he sees the meadow, he unconsciously thinks of herding cattle, which shows that whether he likes it or not, herding cattle has long been engraved in his bones.

The area of the slope is not small, and further back is the woods, and if you really herd cattle, you can put a lot of heads.

I don't know if it's influenced by the breeding APP, he actually thinks that there can be cattle raised?

Remembering his boredom with herding cattle as a child, he couldn't help but shudder.

Forget it, let's talk about it later.

In the afternoon, the ordered chicks were also delivered.

6,000 local chicken seedlings, all of which are varieties of local local chickens, went to the chicken seedling market the day before yesterday to see it, ordered it, and then sent it today.

Plush chicks, that's a real one called "Twitter"!

When the chicks are young, they are all yellow, and when they start to change their coarse coat after the full moon, they show a different color.

One by one is now screaming with their mouths open, and it is very lively.

For the village, raising 500 chickens is not a big deal, it didn't cause much sensation, but now all of a sudden there are 6,000 chickens, and that's a big deal.

When the big truck slowly drove into the village, the people in the village looked at it suspiciously, who is in such a big battle?

People who are idle and have nothing to do all follow the back of the car to see whose house it is.

Coincidentally, when the car arrived at Zhou Heng's house, it stopped, and the people in the car unloaded a basket of chickens.

People began to talk a lot, raising 6,000 chickens is not a trivial matter! Not to mention the tiredness of raising chickens, how can a farmer not be tired of farming -- the key is sales!

You don't have a place to sell, so what are you doing with so much raising, and your family can't eat it all!

They didn't know that all the chickens of Zhou Heng's family had been sold, let alone sold at a high price they couldn't imagine.

Rural people are always careful, and parents don't preach it everywhere.

What is there to brag about this kind of bull, they are also afraid that they will be remembered by people who are uneasy and kind, and they will cause trouble in vain.

One by one, watching the people unload, the scene of six thousand chicks is a bit big.

In fact, in some villages close to the provincial capital, there are also farmers who raise chickens for large businesses, which is the kind that specializes in raising broiler chickens for people and buying and buying them back, raising tens of thousands of chickens at a time.

But that's broiler chickens, which can be slaughtered in three months to collect money, and those chickens just live in a shed, with many floors of shelves in the attic.

Those chickens started from chicks and were sold for more than ten catties in three months, and they never went to the ground.

Merchants even provide chicken feed, but also package training technology, even if you don't know anything, you can engage in this kind of breeding.

That kind of breeding method does not need to occupy a large area, and there is no need to charter a mountain to raise chickens.

For ordinary farmers, that is also a way to get money, although it is tiring. But this kind of work is not suitable for all places.

They are close to the provincial capital, the roads are well built, and the transportation cost is low, which can be described as unique. Like Zhou Heng, who is so far away from the provincial capital, don't think about anything.

Therefore, many economic projects cannot be carried out by them at all.

So much so that the villagers here have limited knowledge, and the scene of more than 6,000 chickens is already shocking.

However, they did know that since their son came back, the chickens had indeed been raised well, and the feathers of the chickens were like brocade. Maybe it's because the chickens are well raised and don't worry about sales.

Some women came to inquire, and Li Yunlian chatted with them casually, and the chickens that had not been met in advance had been sold, but she also said that her son did not go out to work, so he would do breeding at home and go home to start a business.

The people in the village look at each other, and college students go home to start a business to raise chickens?

It's good to raise chickens well, and if they can be sold, then it can be called entrepreneurship, right?

Zhou Heng didn't care about these gossips and was busy with his affairs.

It is necessary to buy such a quantity at once, and it is necessary to check it.

He took out his mobile phone and used the scanning function in the breeding APP to scan them all.

This scan swept out hundreds of small ones. Some are congenitally deficient in eggs, and some are already infected with wind chill and are not very useful.

In the process of raising chickens, there must be some loss rate, but this is too much.

The boss of the chicken seedlings is very embarrassed, he has not seen it, which buyer is like this, this is too eye-catching, right? Among the 6,000 chicken seedlings, can you find out how many of them are faulty?

In the eyes of most people, all chicks look exactly the same, and even male and female can't be distinguished.

I met a master.

The boss of the chicken seedlings smiled and said that this is inevitable, there will always be some problems, just like people, it is impossible for everyone to be perfect.

And he also came prepared, and sent hundreds more, because of the large amount, he originally wanted to make a good impression on the big customers and win repeat customers.

Now, I've just filled the hole in those deficiencies.

If you don't send more, it's really a little bad today.

However, this industry is like that, like he said, it can't be a few thousand chicks, all of them are good. Even if they were hatched by their own hens, some of them were sick and died.

More than 6,000 chickens spread half the yard.

Luckily, the rural area is big enough.

The temporary chicken shack is built with thin sheets for drying things at home.

Speaking of thin stalks, it is probably a product of this place, and it is made of sorghum stalks, each sorghum stalk is cut into nearly two meters long, and then one by one, with nylon rope or hemp rope, to weave together to form a rectangular object.

This thing is very common in the countryside, rolled up when not in use, put on one side, and does not take up much space.

When you use it, spread it out on a shelf and dry peanuts, cotton, etc., which can be breathable and dry quickly. But you can't dry the millet or small grains of wheat, because there are gaps.

This thing was put together, and half of the yard was connected, and a temporary chicken's nest was built, and the top was topped with a reed mat, separated from the dew.

Inside, there is also a scorn fence to enclose a small compartment. There are about 200 in each compartment, which is convenient for feeding rice and water.

Seriously, it's still very troublesome to take care of the chicks, especially this time there are quite a few of them.

People in the breeding industry have said that whether they can do well in this industry depends on what kind of person they are. Raising chickens, pigs, and the like is as delicate as raising children.

I have to get up several times at night to see how the chickens are, such as whether there are nests, whether there are thirsty people who don't know how to drink.

Chicks are very timid, and they will huddle together when they hear the slightest movement, which is called nest piles, and some chicks will be squeezed to death directly.

And they will be night blind at night, and they need light to not be afraid, so there are several small 15-watt light bulbs in half of the yard.

Fortunately, it is summer, and the temperature will not be low, otherwise they would have to be mated with grass.

Anyway, it's a lot of things.

After all the six thousand chicks were settled, the final payment was paid, and the truck that delivered the chicks drove back, Zhou Heng breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the breeding APP in the mobile phone "dingdong" again.

There's new news again.

Zhou Heng picked it up and looked at it, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, this APP is simply not to say.

[Raising 6,000 Native Chickens Quest Progress: 1/10]

[Experience points +160, activate a gift pack, please click to claim.] Yes/No Pick-up?】

Of course, Zhou Heng chose to receive it.

[Congratulations on getting a bottle of "Newborn Dew", which is suitable for newborn chicks.] 】

Zhou Heng clicked on the description of "Newborn Dew", and then sighed from the bottom of his heart, this black technology APP is really powerful.

This bottle of "First Born Dew" has 600 ml, and each ml is the amount of ten chicks, that is, this bottle is exactly used for this batch of chicks.

The mathematical ability of the APP is really not bad, and it is never given more.

This "nascent dew" is used to supplement the vitality of chicks and enhance their resistance, so as to greatly improve the survival rate of chicks.

Of course, the chicks who take the "newborn dew" will also get some nutrients, which is very beneficial to the human body.

In other words, this breeding APP will take care of the chicks when they are born.

Zhou Heng was really in a good mood.

Not only that, but there are also tutorials in the app that you don't need experience to view.

Zhou Heng can follow these tutorials to learn, and he can feed them more scientifically, for example, at this stage, he needs to add some medicine to the fine rice to make them stronger, and so on.

It's really meticulous.

After Li Yunlian dealt with the women who came to inquire, she hurried back to see the chickens at home.

It's really gratifying!

Although it is said that what awaits her will be hard work, it is not easy to raise chickens, especially when the chickens are sick, which really makes people sad to death.

The previous 500 were raised by her since she was a child, and she knew the hardships and tiredness involved.

But when you think about the money you sell after you raise it, it's not worth mentioning.

When these chickens are raised and sold, the son's money to marry his daughter-in-law will be available, and our family can afford whatever conditions the other party asks.

Thinking of that kind of pride, Li Yunlian smiled comfortably.

Compared with her smile, Zhou Faqiang's happiness was slightly more restrained, but there was also irrepressible joy on his face.
