For this purpose, the regiment held a small meeting to study the feasibility of this plan.

Then the question arises: if a farm is built, what feed will be used to feed the pigs and chickens? Now that people have enough to eat, where will there be extra food for livestock and poultry?

You can't let the soldiers tie up their belts and starve, and give the food to the pigs and chickens, because that's putting the cart before the horse.

Unwilling to let such a beautiful idea fall into empty talk, Grandpa Song went around the Phoenix City where they were stationed for several days to conduct field investigations, and then returned to the army to make a military order.

He knew that no one wanted to do this thankless task, so he invited himself to lead the team to build a breeding farm at the foot of Fengqi Mountain in the south of Huangcheng, and then he himself stayed and seriously became a "swineherd".

In addition, Grandpa Song also deliberately emphasized that half of the feed required by the feedlot can be "scavenged" from Fengqi Mountain, which greatly reduces the cost of raising pigs and chickens.

The regiment commander and political commissar admired this spirit of not caring about personal gains and losses, and promised Grandpa Song that if he could complete the first stage of the task in the military order within the agreed time, they would apply for third-class merit for him.

After the troops built the feedlot, Grandpa Song couldn't wait to go to his "battlefield" to solve the most basic and urgent meat supply problem for the troops.

Grandpa Song thought that this was a glorious work for the benefit of the whole regiment, so when he, a cadre at the level of the main battalion, left in the eyes of some people looking at fools, he was high-spirited and had no utilitarian heart!

Grandpa Song brought Guan Weidong, an iron buddy who had the best relationship with him from the logistics department and didn't have much of the idea of "striving for the top", and he had been working for 20 years.

During this period, the object of supply from the breeding farm also changed from Grandpa Song's regiment to his division, and this experience was also promoted by the military region to other local troops more than ten years ago.

A few years ago, when the whole country was disarmed, Grandpa Song and Guan Weidong obeyed the arrangement and took off their military uniforms.

The farm was also separated from the logistics of the army and placed under the management of the Phoenix Animal Husbandry Bureau.

Grandpa Song is still in charge of the farm, but his identity has changed to that of a demobilized cadre......

The donkey cart walked all the way, and there were more and more pedestrians and vehicles on the road, some going to work and some going to school.

In recent years, the number of donkey carts and horse-drawn carts entering the city has become less and less, and a few elementary school students with schoolbags on their backs are so surprised that they want to go to the donkey.

Grandpa Song had to remind loudly, worried that he would touch them or that some unlucky people would be kicked by his own stubborn donkey.

By the time the donkey cart left the city and entered the dirt road at the junction of urban and rural areas, there were fewer people, but the cart was bumpy.

As the name suggests, the urban-rural interface is the transition zone between the city and its surrounding suburbs, that is, the urban fringe area.

The people living in this area are somewhat complicated, some work in the city but do not have housing, there are surplus labor in the countryside who go to the city to work as temporary workers, and more people come from other places to the provincial capital city to pan for gold and earn money.

But they are always people who don't have a house to live in and don't want to spend money on renting a house, so they build a house for themselves with as little money as possible in this "three regardless" area.

Most of them are very proud of this move, and all kinds of people have put down roots in the area!

As time went on, more and more people joined the mix, and the houses built by individuals became more and more dense......
