Chapter 59: The boar is in heat
Tian Fei's starting base, a rice mill pig farm.
Yuan Xiangmei cherishes the job opportunity given by Tian Fei, she is not tired of many things, there is no wind and rain, and she can take care of her parents-in-law and the crops in the field. Although Tian Fei only asked her to do the cleaning work, after doing her own work, Yuan Xiangmei would take a look at every circle to see if the pigs were normal.
Today, she noticed that something was not right. The little boar in the innermost pens was particularly irritable, and his nose was always arched towards the sow next door.
After Yuan Xiangmei found out about the situation, she did not ignore it, but found Sun Yonglin who came to feed her with a sense of responsibility and told him what she had found.
"This doesn't look like you're sick, is it because you've eaten something?" Sun Yonglin said to himself, but he thought that he had fed himself, and he definitely didn't eat indiscriminately.
"I can't see what the problem is for the time being, I still have to go to Tian Fei and let him take a look, he should be able to see what's going on. Sun Yonglin said to Yuan Xiangmei.
……
At this time, Tian Fei was busy working in the charcoal kiln at the foot of the cedar forest. Ten kilns are working at the same time, and basically one or two kilns of charcoal can be produced every two days. Up to now, more than a month, a total of nearly 20,000 catties of charcoal have been produced, and Tian Fei's newly built warehouse for storing feed is actually not as much as charcoal.
"Xiaofei, now that there are 20,000 catties of charcoal, are you planning to sell it? Tian Dabao said to Tian Fei.
During this time, many people know that Tian Dabao has taken over a "big project", especially those charcoal dealers who know Tian Dabao, and everyone in the circle knows that Tian Dabao's owner, Tian Fei, has 60,000 or 70,000 catties of charcoal for sale.
For the time being, Tian Fei has not been contacted, and everyone has tested Tian Fei's attitude through contact with Tian Dabao. This is also the reason why Tian Dabao said this to Tian Fei just now.
"Selling is definitely going to sell, but it mainly depends on the price. If it's too low, I'd rather keep it in the warehouse and it won't rot anyway. Tian Fei smiled.
"Well, who would be afraid of less money. Tian Dabao also stroked his hands and agreed.
"Da Baobo, you have been making charcoal for so many years, you should know a lot of dealers in this industry, can you inquire about the recent market?"
Tian Fei's question was in the middle of Tian Dabao's arms.
"It's not Dabao, I'm bragging, I really know a lot about the market here. Over the years, the price of charcoal has been about the same as the price of rice, and there have been some ups and downs. If the winter had been colder, the price of charcoal would have gone up, but if it had been a warm winter, the price would not have risen. For those of us who burn kilns, it is still cost-effective according to the purchase price, and if you have no experience, don't bet that it will be a cold winter. Tian Dabao gushed about his experience to Tian Fei.
Although Tian Fei knew that Tian Dabao was kind, he didn't want to accept the charcoal seller's offer right now. Because Tian Fei is a "reborn", he has a deep memory of this winter's climate.
In 2003, Tian Fei remembered several things very deeply: one was that Tian Fei graduated from college in this year and began to work; And the third thing is that this is a "once in 20 years" winter, the coldest in previous years was a few degrees below zero, and the temperature suddenly dropped to more than ten degrees below zero in the coldest time this year. When Tian Fei went home for the New Year, his clothes were not ready.
Therefore, Tian Fei is sure that if he saves the charcoal until winter and then sells it, he will definitely be able to sell it at a high price.
……
"Jingle bell, jingle bell......" Tian Fei's mobile phone rang.
"Tian Fei, where are you?" As soon as the phone was connected, Sun Yonglin's voice came from inside.
"Is there anything going on? Yonglin, I'm here at the charcoal kiln right now. ”
"That's right, Tian Fei. Something seems to be wrong with our boar. He looked particularly excited, scurrying around in the pigsty. I don't see what's wrong, you can come and take a look. Sun Yonglin finished in one breath.
Hearing Sun Yonglin say this, Tian Fei was also a little anxious. This boar is a treasure, and there can be no accidents. He planned to go to the rice mill immediately.
"Da Baobo, there are still some things on my pig farm that need to be passed. I'll ask you to take care of the charcoal kiln. Tian Fei said directly to Tian Dabao.
"If you have something, you can go, and you can rest assured of me. Here's the promise to get you right. Tian Dabao patted his chest and said to Tian Fei.
Tian Fei was not polite, and directly borrowed a worker's motorcycle and rushed to the rice factory.
……
It was very fast to have a motorcycle, and Tian Fei arrived at the rice factory in ten minutes.
Hearing the sound of motorcycles, Sun Yonglin and Yuan Xiangmei both walked out of the pig farm.
"Tian Fei, come and take a look. What the hell happened to this boar. ”
Tian Fei changed into his work clothes and walked to the innermost, and at this time, the little boar with black fur kept humming in his mouth, and his saliva went out. At first glance, it does look like there is a problem.
After looking around the boar twice, Tian Fei had a strange expression on his face and found that it was not a disease. Sun Yonglin, who had been paying attention to Tian Fei's expression, noticed Tian Fei's abnormality. So he asked anxiously, "Tian Fei, what's going on?"
Tian Feiyou carefully observed the situation of the boar on one side, confirmed the thoughts in his heart, and then said to Sun Yonglin: "It's a little strange, but it's not a bad thing, it's a good thing." ”
"A good thing?" Sun Yonglin was a little puzzled.
Tian Fei didn't sell Guan Zi anymore, and directly told Sun Yonglin and Yuan Xiangmei: "This boar is in estrus." Seeing the two staring at each other, from disbelief to sudden realization, Tian Fei was also very satisfied. Continue to introduce it to the two: "You see, we have been raising this pig for three months, and it is more than 200 catties, have you done castration?" Good health is at the time of youth, and it is normal to have estrus. ”
"So what now, our sows are not in heat yet. Looking at the little sows who were still locked together next to him, Sun Yonglin showed a sad face again.
When these gilts were collected, they were smaller than boars, and now the largest ones are about 1780 pounds, and the smaller ones may be less than 140 pounds, and there is no sexual maturity, so it is naturally impossible to mate/mate and get pregnant.
"Don't worry, Yonglin. I already have a solution to this problem, otherwise I wouldn't have deliberately bought a bigger boar back, it's unforgivable to waste genes!" Tian Fei made a joke.
"What's the solution, let's hear it. ”
"Keep it a secret for now, I'll tell you later. Tian Fei said mysteriously.
