Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Beginnings of Cooperative Cattle Breeding

Heizi looked at Tian Dafu's envious expression and comforted him: "Don't be envious, look at Brother Fei's cattle breeding." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info you have to raise cattle well, and you will have this good life in the future. You have someone to give you calves to raise now, which is much better than Feigo. At that time, Feige was a cattle farm built by catching rabbits on two legs. ”

Tian Dafu was suddenly full of confidence and nodded vigorously. I began to look forward to a better life when I would only pick vegetables to eat in the future.

Out of the city, the path is slow.

The cow has been hungry for most of the day, and now he is reluctant to leave looking at the hay on the side of the road, and he can nibble on as much as he can.

The three of them were not in a hurry, and let the oxen walk slowly along the edge of the ditch.

There are many proverbs in this aspect of rural cattle raising, such as "the cow runs once, and the day is free", "the cow has a thousand strengths, but it is afraid of a moment's urgency", "not afraid of a thousand days, only afraid of a day's labor" and so on.

It's all about being afraid of the cow being tired. Although the ox has great strength, it is a livestock after all, and it has to be leisurely when working. This is the same as people, no matter how strong a person is, if he is very tired from working one day, he will not be able to slow down for several days!

Of course, there is no need to talk about a monster like Yan Fei, anyway, he hasn't felt that there has been a time when he is so tired that he can't sleep anymore.

After waiting for another ditch for the cow to drink, he began to drive back.

In these years, there is little use of pesticides, and it is no problem to feed livestock with water from the small ditch next to the road. In the summer, people drink more raw water, let alone cows! But they don't let the cows drink more, anyway, they have to go back, and they just have to feed them well.

When he arrived at the cattle farm, he tied the cattle to the cowshed and fed them, Tian Dafu escaped from his pocket and handed it to Yan Fei and said, "Brother Fei, this is the money you gave me to buy cattle." Which cow do you want me to raise?"

Yan Fei didn't take the money.

He has also been thinking about this issue for a long time. Originally, I wanted to give money to Tian Dafu's family, but I didn't want to give it away for nothing, so I said casually at that time that I would hire someone to raise cattle and sell it to myself when the time came.

Now Tian Dafu's words mean that he treats himself as a hired worker. If you treat cattle as a cattle farm at all, how can you sell them to yourself?

Since you don't want to give it away for free, you can really only hire him to raise cattle.

How to hire is also a problem, and there are many problems in between.

Although he also felt that Tian Dafu was a very real young man for most of the day, but raising cattle is not a matter of one or two days, and he really said that he would hire him to raise cattle, who can guarantee that he will not slack off in the middle?

Besides, hiring someone to raise cattle, you don't have to take care of the forage or anything by yourself, which is actually not bad, and now you have to think of a way that is beneficial to both parties.

As for cow sickness or something, he wasn't too worried. There are many cattle diseases, that is, later the transportation developed, cattle are concentrated and large-scale breeding, and cattle flow back and forth in various places, and cross-infection is easy to get sick.

At present, there are very few cattle diseases, and generally a small problem will not kill them all at once, so that cattle farmers have no return.

After hesitating for a moment, Yan Fei spoke: "That's it! Otherwise, you can take these two calves back and raise them, and when the two cows grow up in the future, the cows that grow well will be mine, and the bad ones will be your wages." I see that your yard is quite large, you can take the money back and renovate the yard to make a cowshed. Anyway, one end is also raised, and both ends are also raised, and it is convenient to raise them together. ”

Tian Dafu was stunned: "How can I do that? I'm still afraid that I won't be able to raise one end! I'm even more afraid that I won't be able to raise it well." ”

Yan Fei comforted him and said, "Haven't you learned to raise cattle for so long? What are you afraid of? You won't be so stupid as to raise two cows for me to die! If one dies, we will divide the value of the remaining one equally." If they all die, I won't let you lose money, but you'll be raised for nothing. ”

Tian Dafu was still a little weak-hearted, for fear that there would be problems with raising cattle, so he hesitated and didn't dare to speak.

In fact, Yan Fei has already transferred most of the risks to himself. There are more things that can be used as feed for cattle at home, and it does not cost much at all, mainly because of labor.

Yan Fei paid the money for two calves, and the income was to buy two cows at the price of a low-priced cow, and the cow could be fattened and then sold, and the profit was still considerable.

Of course, there is a risk, and it may be unlucky that both calves will be lost!

The key is that he is not worried that Tian Dafu will not work hard to raise cattle, because how much he earns depends on how well he raises it. Yan Fei lost the money of two calves at most, but he raised two cows for nothing for a while.

This kind of simple cooperation is, of course, very sloppy, and I have never seen anyone else do this. The normativity is very poor, and it can only be relied on by the consciousness of both parties. Fortunately, there is still basic trust between people in these years, and there must be people who are deliberately bad, but Yan Fei feels that he can still trust Tian Dafu's family for the time being.

Heizi persuaded Tian Dafu on the side: "You are not such a cowardly person, do you? You still dare not do such a good thing? Take two cows back to raise, and you will earn a cow when you turn around." What are you waiting for?"

Hearing what Heizi said, Tian Dafu gritted his teeth and nodded: "Okay, Brother Fei, don't worry! I will definitely take care of it." ”

As a matter of fact, the main problem of the peasants at present is that they have no money, or they are poor and short-sighted! This person is the poorer he is, the more timid he becomes.

We all know that raising cattle can make money, but raising cattle is risky. It is not easy for rural people to come up with money for a calf, what if there is a problem with raising it? What if you have to worry about being stolen every day?

Seeing him nod, Yan Fei confessed again: "Today, these two little calves have been running for a day, why don't you stay for another day! ”

Tian Dafu's eyes were already very eager when he looked at the two calves at this time, and he nodded when he heard the words: "Okay! Anyway, I sent a letter yesterday to say that they don't have to worry about me in the cattle farm." When I go back, I will live with Niu Tiantian and promise to take care of these two cows. ”

After speaking, he remembered the money, and hurriedly handed the money to Yan Fei and said, "Brother Fei, I still can't ask for this money." We don't have to spend money to clean up a cowshed, you might as well take it back!"

"Isn't there a militia in our township now? In the future, cattle stealing will definitely be rarer, so you don't have to worry too much. Just raise your cattle well. Yan Fei didn't accept the money handed over by Tian Dafu, and comforted him again. "This money is just for me to give you when I see you pleasing to the eye, go back and honor your father and your grandmother!"

The reason for this is really powerful.

Yan Fei didn't have to worry about the rest, and was ready to leave to go to the vegetable greenhouse.

Kuroko said that he was very blushing: "Brother Fei, do you see that I am pleasing to the eye, why don't you give me some too?"

This guy went to Tian Dafu's house with Yan Fei at the beginning, and knew the reason why Yan Fei sent money to the Tian family, and this sentence was purely to enliven the atmosphere. After speaking, he said to Tian Dafu: "Brother Fei has such a temper, don't push back and forth, he will be annoyed for a while." ”

Tian Dafu took the money and muttered: "I have been asked to raise cattle, how can I still ask him for money?"
