With the help of Zishi, Wang Hao was able to get in touch with Gu Mu, and because of this, he also knew the situation in Wang Village well. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info so Wang Hao can now rest assured that he will devote all his mind to the construction of Demon Suppression Island.

The entire island was carefully divided by Wang Hao, and where farmland should be built and where roads should be built were planned.

With the annoying guano in mind, a row of low wooden sheds was built in the middle of the lake and the rocky mountain.

According to Wang Hao's consideration, there is a natural hot lake on Zhenmo Island as protection, and the temperature is like summer all year round, and there are no snakes and insects. In this case, there is no need to go to great lengths to build a brick house.

I found a flat piece of land and raised it higher than the surrounding terrain so that people could live in it without fear of rain.

Coming from the dark forest to the land, these people were exposed to the sun for the first time in their lives, and the snow-white skin on their bodies and faces turned red after a long time.

When it was time to rest in the evening, there was a wail in the wooden shed.

Because the place where they are sunburned, as long as they touch it slightly, it will hurt.

When Old Man Xie learned from Wang Hao that it was a normal reaction, he was relieved.

On the second day, the skin on these people really cracked open as Wang Hao said. If you tear it slightly, it will hurt.

And the newborn skin inside, showing some bronzed colors.

Such a transformation often takes more than ten days or even a month to adapt on the earth, but these people in the Great Wilderness only adapted to it in two days, and Wang Hao was stunned.

Today is a big day. Because after several days of preparation, Wang Hao finally decided to attack these wild boars who had not seen the form clearly.

In the past few days, the Xie villagers and the wild boars have been fighting fiercely.

Pigs are omnivores and are not resistant to fragrant meat.

Whenever people eat, these wild boars will smell the wind and come to beg for food.

If in the Great Wilderness, animals begged for food from humans, and their attitude was still very savage, they would have been knocked down with a stick and turned into food.

But under Wang Hao's instructions, everyone did not compete with the wild boars, as long as the wild boars came, they moved the place and left the food for them.

Gradually, these wild boars, the last bit of vigilance against human beings, also disappeared.

Today, after a few days of hard work, a sturdy and massive pigsty has finally taken shape.

These wild boars were not too hostile to humans in the first place, so Wang Hao did not intend to capture them by violent means.

Instead, it was a little trick to let them get into the pigsty on their own, and then the Xie people would show up to raise them.

Although it can be troublesome, it does not make the wild boars resist, so that they will always think that humans are their good companions. Perhaps in just one or two generations, a qualified domestic pig can be domesticated.

There are countless species of living things on Earth, but in the end, the number of poultry and livestock is only a small number.

Don't talk about chickens, ducks and geese, just livestock.

Cattle can plow the fields and eat meat.

Horses can carry people, use them as foot force, and they can also eat meat.

Sheep can produce wool or eat meat.

Dogs, on the other hand, can take care of the house and can still eat meat.

In addition to killing and eating meat, these animals basically have other uses, so that they will not be eliminated in the 5,000-year history of China and will be passed down from generation to generation.

However, among the large animals, only the pig is an exception. It can't do anything.

You can't carry people and pull goods, furs have no added value at all when productivity is low, and you can't watch the family and help people hunt. Its only function is to be able to kill and eat meat. It is precisely because pigs do nothing and only eat and die every day that there is a lazy pig on the earth.

So why haven't pigs been culled for so many years?

The reason is simple, in addition to the fact that the pig grows relatively fast, the most important thing is that it basically eats everything.

As long as it is something that can be eaten by humans, pigs can eat it, and what people can't eat, pigs can eat many things.

It eats the bark of the tree, and it also eats the roots of the grass. It can even eat some humus that resembles dirt. Not only can pigs eat, it also has an extremely high conversion rate, being able to convert it into fat and meat.

In this way, even when there is a shortage of food, people can find food for pigs as long as they are willing to work hard. Pigs eat food and convert it into meat. Then they could eat this meat to satisfy their hunger.

In this way, the pig acts as a converter, transforming many things that are inedible into things that humans can eat, and can store them for a long time. It is equivalent to indirectly creating many things for human beings out of thin air.

It is for these reasons that the number of cattle and horses with additional functions has plummeted due to increased productivity, but the number of pigs has continued to increase due to the human demand for meat. It's just that they have moved from the free-range breeding of ordinary people to major farms.

Today's barbecue is extraordinarily fragrant, and that's because Wang Hao added some more spices.

The pigs smelled the fragrance and rushed over one by one.

Looking at their fat heads and big ears, where is there still a bit of wild boar, they have long been semi-domesticated by nature because of their long and comfortable days.

If this group of pigs leaves Demon Suppression Island, none of them will survive more than two days.

Based on the experience of the pigs these days, these people will definitely throw the good food at them and walk away.

Sure enough, seeing the pigs coming, some small pieces of roasted minced meat were thrown into the pigs by Wang Hao and them.

The pigs all rushed to eat, for fear that they would eat less than other pigs.

There seems to be an extra lot of food today. It's just that to the dissatisfaction of the pigs, these foods are different from the previous two days, they are all cut into small pieces, and it is extremely difficult to eat.

The pigs who had eaten the food on the ground with their heads down did not notice at all, and one by one, they actually got into a wooden pig pen.

The materials used for the pens are the branches of the sturdy hardwoods found in the forest.

Hardwoods as thick as calves are buried deep in the ground. There is a gap of more than 20 centimeters between each hardwood.

Such a gap is absolutely impossible for a half-sized wild boar to penetrate. But it leaves enough space to dispose of dirty things like pig manure.

The hardwoods are tied horizontally with rattan sticks between the hardwoods on the ground.

In this way, a circular pigsty was built on a higher piece of ground with hardwood, which could hold all the wild boars.

The largest wild boar in the herd is one person tall, so the height of the pigsty is two meters. At the top of the pigsty, hardwoods are also placed to prevent wild boars from jumping out.

In order to prevent wild boars from gnawing, these hardwoods and the vines that bind the hardwoods contain the sap of hogweed, which wild boars hate.

When the pigsty was built, Wang Hao personally tested the hardness, and those wild boars definitely couldn't rush out.

The space between the pens is reserved for the little boars to enter and exit.

When the wild boars are accustomed to their new life in captivity, the piglets will be kept separately.

Because in the case of piglets, the big sow will not come into heat again.

After quarantining the piglets, the big pigs will also be quarantined.

At that time, each sow would have its own pigsty, and in the case of boars, the prickly and weak ones would be kept together and slaughtered for food at any time.

The more docile ones will be singled out and regularly kept with sows for breeding.

On Earth, the average number of days from conception to birth for wild boars is one hundred and fourteen days. In other words, a maximum of three litters can be bred in a year. However, under normal circumstances, it is good to breed five children in two years.

And in each litter, there will normally be more than ten piglets.

That is to say, even if the number of accidental deaths is excluded, in the case of artificial cultivation, a sow can give birth to a minimum of 25 cubs a year.

There are 30 adult sows here.

Under normal circumstances, the ratio of boars to sows in a herd is not like this.

This is the result of the special environment on Demon Suppression Island.

Just like this herd, if it can be vigorously reproduced, it will only take ten years for wild boars to fill the entire Demon Suppression Island.

But before that, these wild boars were also dying out of lack of food.

But now with human intervention, it's different.

Thirty adult sows, if they breed vigorously, they can add at least 750 piglets to Wang Hao a year.

Demon Suppression Island is very large, and it basically takes nearly a day for Wang Hao and the others to walk from one side of the island to the other. That's enough to say it's huge.

When Wang Hao didn't come to Demon Suppression Island, relying only on natural growth, the sweet potatoes on the island could supply more than 60 wild boars to eat.

If the land were to be cultivated and cultivated, the amount of food would increase thousands of times over.

It is not a problem at all to build the entire island into a super large and self-sufficient pig farm.

Therefore, Wang Hao will only worry about the number of wild boars being too small now, and will not worry about too many of them.

But don't worry too much. Piglets will grow up, and it won't be long before the first batch of piglets grows up, and the reproductive speed of wild boars will usher in a geometric blowout.

Looking at the last few wild boars, they also hummed and chirped into the pigsty made for them, and Wang Hao closed the pigsty door with his own hands.

These wild boars will stay in this area for at least a month, and when they begin to adapt to this life, they will be assigned to new pens for large-scale breeding.

Wang Hao looked at the pigs still humming and chirping in the pigsty, and sighed that Demon Suppression Island was really his precious place.

This time, the harvest has far exceeded his imagination.

Wang Hao can foresee that in the next few years, Zhenmo Island will be the most important grain and asphalt production base in Wang Village. (To be continued.) )
