Chapter 490: Visiting the Pig Farm

Huxian and Chang'an are separated by Fengshui, and it is not very far, and it takes more than an hour to enter the boundary of Huxian County along the Huanshan Road. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info//、qb5.c0m\

Although Chang'an County is out, it is still in the Zhongnan Mountains, and this county is also a mountainous area relying on the Qinling Mountains.

Thinking about it, either Wang Gui is not familiar with the terrain here, or he has not been here for a long time, so it has changed a lot and he can't find the things in his previous memory, so the drive is not very smooth. But I finally arrived at the location at nine o'clock, not a prosperous area, but a small village backed by the mountains.

After parking, digging Wang Gui made a phone call.

A group of people in the carriage jumped down, Wang Peng looked at the mountain not far away and said, "Why are you still on the side of the mountain?" What modern pig farm was built here? ”

The others also had strange expressions on their faces, probably thinking that the so-called modern pig farm should be in the city.

It didn't take long for a middle-aged man to come, and after greeting Wang Gui warmly, he led everyone towards the foot of the mountain. A large brick-walled courtyard sits at the foot of the hill and houses rows of bungalows.

First, he took everyone to a small two-story building, and the woman inside brought tea and cigarettes.

After being introduced, I knew that this man's name was Xue Qunwu, and I couldn't see that he was also a talent who had been trained in college, and his study was to breed this profession, and after graduation, he returned home and breaded such a small hill and the surrounding area to raise pigs, and he really made a lot of money over the years.

As for how Wang Gui knew this person, the two didn't say it, and everyone didn't know.

Xue Qunwu shouted to the woman: "Prepare a few dishes, and then prepare some wine" and then said to Zhang Taiping and the others, "Let's go, let's go and see the pig barn first." ”

The row of bungalows built against the fence was a pig barn, and a large wolf dog was tethered to the door, and when he saw a stranger, he pounced on him with his teeth and broke the iron chain with a loud noise, and looked very fierce. It wasn't until Xue Qunwu waved his hand that he stopped, but he still looked at a few people vigilantly.

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "This dog is good. ”

Xue Qunwu replied with a smile: "This is a German shepherd dog bought from outside at a high price, and I usually rely on it to herd pigs." ”

"Isn't there a pig barn, why do you still put it?" Wang Peng asked puzzled.

"I'm not just a domestic pig, but a wild boar." Xue Qunwu replied, "Domestic pigs are okay, they can always be kept in the pig barn, but wild boars are not good, they must often be driven out to run in the mountains, so that the meat on the body is lean meat, otherwise it will be worthless if it becomes a domestic pig." ”

Indeed, the reason why wild boar is different from domestic pork is that wild boar runs all day in the mountains, and there is almost no excess fat on its body, all of which are vigorous lean meat; In the domestic pig piglet, in order to make it grow meat, people basically eat, sleep, sleep and eat, and it grows very fast, but the meat on the body is mostly fat.

Entering the pig house, the light inside is very bright, the ventilation facilities are also good, there is no smell, and the dirty pig house often seen in the countryside is simply a world of difference.

"It's really clean." Wang Bajin sighed, there is also a pigsty in his own backyard, and he has a pig, and the environment inside is simply not flattering, especially in the summer, the smell can definitely smoke people to death.

Xue Qunwu smiled and didn't say anything, the first standard for raising pigs is hygiene.

The inside of these bungalows is permeable, and they are combined into a huge space inside, with pig barns built in two rows. In the middle was an aisle, above which was hung something that shone with blue-violet light, and Zhang Taiping and Wang Gui knew that this was an instrument for disinfecting the air. And at intervals there will be a thermometer hanging to measure the temperature in the barn at any time, so that the temperature is kept at the most suitable stage of pig growth.

Inside each small pig house is an isolated space, and there are rows of flushing openings on the ground, needless to say, it is used for cleaning inside.

Xue Qunwu introduced the facilities and construction structures inside to everyone as he walked, and there was nothing to reserve. In fact, there is no need to keep it, the same technology may have different results in the hands of different people, and even if it can be successful, it will not affect him in the slightest.

There is also a fluorescent lamp above each small space, Xue Qunwu introduced: "This lamp is equivalent to the sun outside, and it is lit up for a few hours every day, which is equivalent to basking in the sun for pigs." ”

Wang Laogun joked and said, "Your pigs here are really comfortable." ”

Wang Peng pointed to the unkempt head in some places under the fluorescent lamp and said, "This can't be used to bathe pigs, right?" ”

Xue Qunwu nodded and said with a smile: "It is indeed to bathe the pigs, and it is necessary to wash them once a day." ”

"Huh? Do you really bathe the pigs? Wang Bajin felt a little incredible.

Seeing Xue Qunwu coming over, all the pigs that were lying in the pig barn just now were boiling, and they stretched out their mouths on the iron fence door and snorted. These pigs don't look big now, but if they take a little time, when they grow up, it's exactly the time before the year, which is the time when the price is good.

The whole body is smooth and there is no filth and odor, which makes several mountain people have a great change in the concept of pig raising.

Old man Qian asked, "What do you feed this pig master?" ”

Xue Qunwu didn't have anything to hide, and said bluntly: "Most of them are special feed, and occasionally they will cut some grass." ”

"What does a specialized feed look like?" Wang Bajin asked.

"Over there, I'll take you there." Xue Qunwu pointed to the vacant space in the room and said, where bags of things were stacked.

A few people, you and I humbly asked for advice, and Xue Qunwu also answered without reservation. probably has an unusual relationship with Wang Gui, and there is no sign of evasion and non-answering, at least the questions mentioned by everyone have been satisfactorily answered. After that, Wang Min didn't ask any questions, but he kept in his mind what everyone had said, the questions he asked, and the answers he received.

When I walked in, I realized that the marks on these bags were not the same, so naturally it was not a variety.

Xue Qunwu introduced: "There are many types of commonly used feed for pigs, which are divided into eight types of protein feed, energy feed, roughage, green feed, silage, mineral feed and feed additives according to nutrition. After a pause, after everyone digested the sentence, he continued, "I only have protein feed, energy feed and mineral feed here, and the rest of the feed can be collected in a nearby village instead." ”

Usually, when raising pigs at home, they are only fed some corn husks or wheat husks, and hard-working people even feed them with grass, and only occasionally feed some soybeans or bean dregs and other things. Today is the first time I have heard that there is so much attention to feeding pigs, and there is such a different feed, which is considered a long insight.

Out of this room, Xue Qunwu led everyone to another room. The layout inside is similar to which one of the ancestors.

Xue Qunwu said: "This is the place where wild boars are raised. ”

Everyone stood in front of them and looked at it, and it was indeed a half-sized wild boar, most of which were black fur. The reason for nature is not restless even in the pig barn.

There are also a few pig houses with half-black and half-white colored pigs, and the style looks a little different from the wild boar.

Old man Qian looked at it and asked, "This is not a purebred wild boar, right?" ”

Xue Qunwu said with a smile: "The old gentleman is as wise as a torch, this is indeed not a purebred wild boar, but a hybrid breed of a wild boar's domestic boar. In recent years, wild boar has been very popular, but this wild boar has a disadvantage that it is too rough, so some people cross wild boars with domestic pigs, which not only shortens the growth cycle, but also improves the meat quality. ”

Most of the people here have eaten wild boar, like Wang Lao Gun, Wang Bajin Qian, these people are all smacking, in their opinion, as long as there is meat to eat, it is good, how can there be such high requirements. Only Zhang Taiping and Wang Gui nodded approvingly.

Wang Bajin looked at the wild boars that were also restless in the pig house and asked, "How did you raise this wild boar?" Aren't you afraid of them running away? ”

Xue Qunwu shook his head and said: "Just stocking on the hillside behind, saying that there is no need to worry too much about the matter of escaping, although these are still wild boars, they are always human-like, and they lack a wild nature, although they will run around when they are released, they will not run directly into the mountains and not come out." As long as there is someone next to you to take care of it, you are not afraid of running away. Of course, it's best to have one or two sheepdogs. ”

When he came out of the pig barn, Wang Gui asked a question that everyone was very concerned about: "How long will it take for these pigs you raise to be released from the cage?" ”

"Generally, if there is no accident, ordinary domestic pigs can be slaughtered in three months, like the kind of new breeds that are crossed with wild boars take about three or four months to be slaughtered, as for pure wild boars, it will take about five months, or even longer." Xue Qunwu added, "Of course, the time I mentioned is calculated from the piglet stage that can ensure the survival rate. ”

Out of Zhang Taiping and Wang Gui, the others looked at each other, their eyes full of shock. You must know that the pigs raised in the village are all ordinary domestic pigs, and the shortest time is half a year to be slaughtered, some are months, and even a year before they are slaughtered, and they are raised from the beginning of the year to the New Year in the release to kill or sell.

At this moment, several people were shocked and surging in their hearts, if their own pigs can also have such a high slaughter rate, then it is definitely a money-making industry.

Zhang Taiping asked, "How did you get your piglet?" ”

Others don't have to ask this question, because if you raise one or two of them yourself, you don't have to worry about this problem at all, but if you have one or two in the village, it must be hundreds, so the source of the piglets needs to be considered.

Xue Qunwu replied: "I selected ordinary domestic pigs from nearby market towns, and these owners' cubs were ordered from special places, and those hybrids were also ordered. ”

Old man Qian asked strangely, "Why don't you breed piglets yourself, so that you don't have to spend money to buy piglets, won't you earn more?" ”

Xue Qunwu shook his head and said, "The old gentleman doesn't know, the cultivation of this pig cub seems simple, but it is not. Piglets are the most susceptible to getting sick, and if they don't get it right, they will die, and it is easy to leave viruses in the pig house, which is not conducive to future feeding. It is much simpler to buy piglets directly from other places, and the health is guaranteed, and the sanitary environment in the pig house is also guaranteed, although it costs some more money, but it is conducive to the later feeding. ”

Old man Qian nodded and said, "It seems that this is really completely different from our rural pig farming." ”

Out of the pig barn, a big dog came outside the door, this is a big dog that is not tied with an iron chain, although it came slowly, but it still put a lot of pressure on Wang Peng and a few people, and Zhang Taiping, Wang Gui and Old Man Qian can be calm as before.

Zhang Taiping could see that this was a Tibetan mastiff, although it was not a very purebred kind, but it was also very valuable.

The Tibetan mastiff didn't show any attacking stance. Xue Qunwu patted the Tibetan mastiff's neck and asked it to guard the door of the wild boar house.

When the Tibetan mastiff was gone, Wang Peng and his party relaxed. This is not an ordinary earth dog, knowing the Tibetan mastiff that can bring the shadow of death to people, and has the same combat power as the wolf.

Wang Peng said to Zhang Taiping: "This dog is very big, big brother, it's almost time to catch up with Ah Huang." ”

"Oh?" Xue Qunwu was a little surprised: "Brother Zhang's family also has a big dog?" "A big dog like his Tibetan mastiff is rare, only some special breeds can reach it, ordinary earth dogs and shepherd dogs do not have this possibility at all, and listening to Wang Peng's tone is bigger than his Tibetan mastiff, he can't help but be surprised.

Zhang Taiping nodded and said, "We also live at the foot of the mountain and have a big dog to guard the yard." ”

Wang Gui smiled and said to Xue Qunwu: "The big dogs in the Dashuai family are not ordinary dogs, there is one purebred Tibetan mastiff alone, and both are also big dogs of extraordinary quality, and your Tibetan mastiff is not comparable." ”

"So powerful? Then when you have time, you have to go over and see what you know. Xue Qunwu said.

He walked around the hillside behind the yard where wild boars were kept.

Zhang Taiping asked: "I just saw in the pig barn that there are sewers below, and the water and pig manure in them are washed away from the sewers, but where are these washed away?" ”

Xue Qunwu smiled smugly and said, "Do you see that place?" ”

The crowd followed his finger and saw a small house not far from the east side of the courtyard.

Xue Qunwu continued: "Under that small house is a huge biogas digester, where all the pig manure is washed to become biogas. ”

Zhang Taiping and Wang Gui glanced at each other, and their eyes lit up. I was worried that if I raised pigs, the manure could not be treated in time, which would affect the overall environment of the village, especially after the development of hot springs in the future.

Now the biogas shows them the way out, which not only solves this problem, but also provides energy for the village. If possible, replacing the energy problem of the whole village with biogas is a good thing for the environment and the whole village.

Xue Qunwu saw the expressions of the two, smiled and pointed to the village not far away and said, "Don't look at this village close to the mountain, remote and small, but many people in it have already replaced firewood with biogas. ”

Wang Peng asked beside him, "Big brother, what is biogas?" The others were also puzzled.

Zhang Taiping said: "I can't give you a detailed explanation now, but this biogas digester can solve the problem of pig manure." If it is left underground for a period of time, it produces a gas that burns like gas, and can be used for cooking like a gas stove. ”

Although Wang Peng doesn't know what biogas is, he still knows a little about gas stoves, and he can understand Zhang Taiping's meaning in comparison.
