Chapter 155: Raising Chickens

So if Scarlet offered this price, he didn't want to sell it at first, but the words later made him moved, and this countryman usually buys more than ten or twenty chickens.

Just like this girl said, it is not easy for the chicks that come out of the kang to live without the hens, so the people who generally buy them are because when the hens at home hold the chicks, they do not hatch so much, so they add a few to raise together, and besides, who will raise more than 100 chicks at once, and it is not a chicken farm.

"Another hundred ducklings, and if you have gooselings, you can bring ten. Ruofei continued to speak.

"Okay, I'll sell, ducks are a little more expensive, duck eggs are more expensive than eggs, how about you buy more ducklings than you triangular, geese count you as five corners?" He only picked a total of 300 chickens, 200 ducklings and 100 geese, this girl bought 200 and 100 in one go, which is equivalent to buying a third of the surplus, which saves him a lot of effort.

After all, it is a big business, if it falls, it will not be cost-effective, after all, these chickens and ducklings are put in their hands to eat feed, and then maybe they will die, these are all money, someone is willing to buy a large amount, he will naturally not give up.

This price is in line with Ruofei's requirements, so she didn't bargain with the chicken seller, and simply brought the basket out to let the number of chickens and ducks, naturally she wanted to watch from the sidelines, and deliberately pretended to know very well to scare this person, after all, she was also worried that the other party would catch unhealthy chicks and ducklings for her, and it would be difficult to feed them at that time.

After counting the chickens and counting the money, Ruofei paid the money clearly, and carried the poultry into the house, and the basket she had put forward before was naturally not enough, and then she brought out another basket to fit it.

The two baskets of chickens and ducklings plus ten geese cost Ruofei a total of fifty yuan, because Ruofei bought more, and the man also gave Ruofei five chickens and ducks each. So in fact, Ruofei bought a total of 220 poultry.

When the chicken seller left, Ruofei closed the door, and then secretly brought the chickens, ducks and geese to the space, and the temperature in the space was always about 20 degrees. So putting the chicks in it won't die from the cold.

The place where the chickens are raised has already been opened up, if the scarlet only puts the chickens in, the chicks and ducklings have not been hatching for a long time, they can't stand the cold, and they are very particular about eating. Ruofei remembers that when she was raised at home when she was a child, she first softened the rice bubble with white vinegar before giving it to the chickens, and then it was best to get some coptis water for the chickens to drink, which could enhance the chickens' resistance.

The other thing is to keep warm, this is more troublesome, after all, there are no hens and incubators, but fortunately, the temperature in the space is not low, and the chicks will not be cold inside.

There is no rice for the time being, and so is Coptis water, but Ruofei took some space water over. Filled with a basin of water on the ground, the chicks and ducklings were obedient, and they all rushed over to drink.

Taking advantage of their drinking water, Ruofei went to the vegetable field to pick some green vegetables, ready to chop them and feed them to the chickens, originally did not plan to let these poultry eat food, after all, Ruofei did not have so much food in his hands to feed these animals.

It's easy to get it done, Ruofei got out of the space, but she also caught five chicks out, and she called the chicken seller to come to the village to see it. If someone gossiped about it to her grandmother, she would not be able to explain it, so she took out five chicks and told her grandmother that she bought them herself, so that someone said. It will not arouse the suspicion of grandma.

As for where she got the money, it is easy to explain, just say that she bought it with New Year's money, when she gave the money to her mother, his mother still left her two yuan, and she didn't spend much on weekdays. So the money has been in her pocket, just in time to explain where the chick came from.

In the evening, Guo Xingwang and his wife came back, Ruofei had already made dinner, since Guo Xingwang said last time, Zhao Cuiying also began to let Ruofei go to the stove, usually on weekends, if Ruofei does not go to the field to help, she will stay at home to help with housework and cooking.

So now Ruofei can cook by herself, but she is similar to most of the girls in the village, and she also does housework in addition to studying.

"Where did the chicks come from?" As soon as she entered the house, she heard the chirping of chirping, and Zhao Cuiying couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Mother-in-law, there are chickens caught today, and when I saw them, I bought a few of them, and they were in the basket behind the stove. Ruofei has already scooped up the washing water.

Zhao Cuiying's hens don't have a nest, so these chicks don't have hens with them, if you are afraid that they will be cold, they will be put behind the stove that has been burned, which is warmer.

"Where did you get the money to buy chickens, besides, without a hen, this chick can still live, why do you say you are so uneasy, isn't this a waste of money?" Hearing this, Zhao Cuiying couldn't help but get angry, and the chicks without the hen couldn't live at all.

Ruofei was stunned by the scolding, and couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in her heart, isn't it just a few chickens?

"It was my mother who gave it to me, I bought a few when I saw that the chicks were very cute, can't I raise them?" Ruofei said pitifully, although the mourning policy is very shameful, but Ruofei can't take care of it at this time.

Being so expressioned by Ruofei, Zhao Cuiying also turned off the fire a little, thinking that her granddaughter is not very old, and it is normal to like small animals, although she thinks it is the nature of a child, she still can't help but say: "In the future, let your mother never give you money again, you will know that you will spend indiscriminately, this chicken can't be raised, isn't it harming their lives? How much is it? Have you been deceived?"

At this time, Zhao Cuiying had already taken out the basket containing the chickens, and saw that the basket was covered with hay, and the five tender yellow chicks stayed in it energetically and chirping, but she didn't see anything serious.

"Two corners and five one, a total of two two corners and five. Ruofei replied honestly.

The price is not expensive, and it is about three cents for her to buy it on weekdays, but this child is shrewd, and it is five cents cheaper than what she bought.

Although she thought so in her heart, she didn't show it on her face, so Zhao Cuiying still said with a stern face: "This chicken doesn't have a chicken lady with it, and it will definitely not survive tonight, I'll go to the bay to see whose chicken girl just takes the chicken, put it in their house for half a month, and wait for the chicken to grow up a little bit." ”

"Do you want to go before you eat?" Ruofei asked, with a look of reluctance on her face.

Zhao Cuiying shook her head, walked out directly with the chicken, and replied as she walked: "You and your father eat first, I'll go to the bay first, if there is no chicken girl, I have to think of ways to keep the chicken warm when I come back." ”.
