There is a large brick house on the edge of the fishing ground, which not only hoards a lot of fish and grass feed, but also the temporary residence of Shi Dalang and other young men who guard and manage the fishing ground, as long as the water surface does not freeze in winter, the amount of food of the scale fish is not reduced, so after increasing the reserve of tens of thousands of large fish, Shi Dalang and these half-grown young men are even busier, every day, they have to go to the chicken farm and pig farm to carry the workers there to help them collect chicken manure and pig manure, and mix it into the forage to make fish food.

When Sun Xiangfu came, Shi Dalang was putting fish food with a few boys in the village, and Sun Erli was also here to help him.

"Brother Xiangfu is back."

Seeing Sun Xiangfu, these half-grown boys were all overjoyed, threw the fish food in their hands, and ran towards the house.

"Well, come and see you, and pick you up on the eighth day of the next month to go to Chang'an for a wedding wine, brother, I'm going to get married."

Hearing Sun Xiangfu say this, Shi Dalang and a few others were happy, but they were silent, their task was heavy, they had to stay in the fishing ground to feed the fish, and Chang'an was afraid that they would not be able to go.

"Hehe, these manual jobs can be done by finding some helpers, do you plan to feed and feed the fish in this fishery for the rest of your life?"

Sun Xiangfu patted the shoulder of Shi Dalang, who was growing stronger, and said.

"Actually, it's good to feed the fish." Shi Dalang hadn't seen much of the world, but he felt relieved when he saw that there were endless fish in the reservoir and whispered.

"Yes! I also think that it is good to plant a field for a lifetime, but you can't just plant one crop in one field, so I will have new tasks for you later, and you only need to follow me and study more advanced breeding technology. ”

"Got it, Brother Xiangfu, I listen to you."

Shi Dalang seemed to remember the scene when Sun Xingfu taught him to raise fish for the first time, and now, a few half-sized children in the village basically know this set, as long as he hires workers, he can completely get out.

After chatting with Shi Dalang for a while, Sun Xiangfu and Sun Erli went to the chicken farm together, which is now the territory of Aunt Cuihua and Nie Sanniang.

The houses of the chicken farm were built before the houses of the villagers, and in order to prevent wild animals such as weasels from stealing chickens to eat, some big white geese were raised to guard these chickens.

"Xiangfu is back, haven't you eaten?" Aunt Cuihua put down the work in her hand and greeted many female workers in the chicken farm.

"I've eaten, how is Aunt Cuihua lately?" In fact, seeing Li Cuihua's happy face, Sun Xiangfu's words were all asked in vain.

"Of course it's good, it's great, the chickens in our village have finally begun to lay eggs, and I see the baskets in the house, thousands of eggs a day!"

When Sun Xiangfu heard this, he looked into the basket in the house, and sure enough, there were dozens of baskets of eggs piled up inside, and he was afraid that there were tens of thousands, so he asked again, "How many chickens are there in our chicken farm now?" ”

"There must be more than 20,000 of them! There are still thousands of chickens, but when it gets cold, the chicken dealers don't send them here. Aunt Cuihua said with some disappointment, in her opinion, the entire Chai Mountain should be turned into a big chicken nest, raising dozens of millions of chickens, so that the eggs produced every day can be piled up into a mountain, and no matter how you eat it, you can't eat it all.

"Well, this year's scale is enough, and when there is output in the village next year, a large amount of grain can be bought to make chicken feed, and it is not too late to expand. However, you should usually pay attention to separating those chickens that lay eggs from those that do not lay eggs, the higher the eggs of the chickens, the more you must give enough food, as for those who do not lay eggs, kill and eat!

Also, these eggs, don't be reluctant to give the villagers to eat, our village has few people, each person eats two eggs a day, only a few hundred, the excess can be vigorously organized to take the market to sell for food, and I asked Uncle De to find a shop in Chang'an, specializing in selling eggs from chicken farms. ”

"Okay!"

Li Cuihua nodded and wrote down Sun Xiangfu's words, and Nie Sanniang on the side seemed to have something to say, her profession was not raising chickens, but raising silkworms, weaving cloth, and making clothes, and now, after the sheepskin jacket of the whole village was done, she had nothing to do, so she could only come to the chicken farm to help.

"Sanniang, if you have anything to say, just say it!" Sun Xiangfu looked at her and said with a smile.

"That's the case, I see that this Chai Mountain place is so big, just building a chicken farm is a waste, I want to let Dali plant mulberry trees on the mountain after the village opens next year, this mulberry tree is the most funny, just to add some food to the chickens, by the way, we can also raise some silkworms." Nie Sanniang pointed to Chai Shan Road, which was about to be cut down by the two brothers, Wang Fu and Wang Gui.

"Well, your proposal is very good, but the mulberry tree can't grow in a year, I want to take you back to Chang'an to be a steward in my house this time, what do you think?"

Sun Xiangfu's eyes lit up when he heard Nie Sanniang's proposal, he liked to use this kind of smart person the most, he could draw inferences from one and make up for things he hadn't thought of for a while.

"I, go to Chang'an? Then my family ······"

Nie Sanniang hesitated, after all, she still had three children to take care of.

"Go all, go to my house, and ask someone to teach them to read and write, you know, I am now a seven-grade official, not worse than the county lord, my house is still given by the emperor himself, and it is not smaller than the Guogong Mansion."

When Sun Xiangfu said this, Nie Sanniang knelt directly on the ground, and she couldn't say anything grateful, just shed tears.

"What are you doing! Our village is not prosperous, and the children in the village will also have books to read in the future, so many money-making industries in our village, can't we afford to hire a few gentlemen to teach? ”

Helping Nie Sanniang up from the ground, Sun Xiangfu saw many pairs of red eyes, in less than half a year, the whole village has changed so much that they can't believe it, this is all brought by Sun Xiangfu, after returning home, these women will definitely educate their children and be grateful to Sun Xiangfu who brought them everything.

From the left Chai Mountain, Sun Xiangfu went to the pig farm of the right Chai Mountain, now, the first batch of piglets has been fed for almost three months, with Sun Xiangfu's castration captivity, plus fermented feed, has grown to more than 100 catties, this is the weight that Zhao Da can not raise in a year, he shouted miracles at the same time, while strictly following Sun Xiangfu's method of daily breeding, the village now has more than half of the male strong men are working on the pig farm, because now there are nearly 1,000 fat pigs here, The pig feed that needs to be made every day is a ton of pigs, which can keep everyone busy.

He also asked Zhao Da to invite workers to continue to expand the scale, and by the way, he was asked to personally kill a few fat pigs and have a big dinner in the village house tonight.

At dusk, the craftsmen of the surrounding villages have gone home, and more than 100 villagers of Xingfu Village have all gathered in the hall of the village house.

The production method of hot pot only needs to be dictated by Sun Xiangfu once, and no one will not, there is a lot of meat today, and the three pigs killed more than 200 catties of meat, not counting the water that those craftsmen took home, so the rice doesn't need to be cooked, just eat pork and fish to be full.

Uncle De came to Happy Village for the first time, and he actually didn't want to leave, no wonder Sun Xiangfu said that he wanted to pick up his younger brothers and sisters to Chang'an, the two little guys would be unhappy, there was no gorgeous opening remarks, Sun Xiangfu just told everyone to eat first, eat and drink enough, he said a few more words to everyone, so, the whole village house was filled with fragrance, and was filled with the sound of eating and drinking, almost half an hour later, Sun Xiangfu walked up to the podium in the center to say a few words to everyone.

"I'm sure everyone has seen the benefits of hiring workers this month! With these workers, we can quickly promote the development of the village at a very small cost, so we will rely heavily on hired labor for future production and expansion.

And how can we manage these hired workers well and expand the industry in our village?

In addition to formulating strategies, each of us also needs to be literate, we also need to know more, and we need to know more, so the first priority of the next village is to eradicate illiteracy, so that everyone can be literate, so that the people in charge of each piece know what they want to do and how to do it after receiving my letter from Chang'an. ”

When Sun Xiangfu said this, the well-fed villagers in the hall were dumbfounded, let them be literate farmers, Sun Xiangfu's idea was bold enough, and the bold villagers didn't think about it, but no matter what, Sun Xiangfu's words are authoritative in Happy Village, and everyone must implement it unconditionally, so it's useless to be in a daze, just be ready to learn.

"There are no crops to grow in the field in winter, take advantage of this time, I will find someone to teach everyone to read and write in the village commune every day, this Zhang Hong, is the servant in my house, he is literate, and his two helpers, in the future, I will teach everyone to read and settle accounts, in addition, all children over the age of seven and under the age of twelve, regardless of gender, will be taken to Chang'an by me, and ask a special teacher to teach them to read."

"Boom ······"

Hearing Sun Xiangfu's words, the hall became lively in an instant, he was going to read and write, his own children were going to study, this was something they couldn't think of before, but now, because of this person on the stage, they did it easily.

Under the leadership of Wang Fu and Wang Gui and other cadres, the villagers wanted to get out of their seats to kneel and bow to Sun Xiangfu, but Sun Xiangfu refused, and there were only one or twenty eligible children in the village, and the cost of studying for them was nothing, as long as the villagers of Happy Village accepted his ideas and ideas, then when these seeds bloomed everywhere in the Tang Dynasty, this country would become extremely powerful, as long as this way, Sun Xiangfu could live a comfortable life in this world.
