Chapter Twenty-Four: Hatching Chicks Emerge
The distance from Luoshui River to Xiaoniuzhuang outside Xinping City was not close at all, and Song Jinggong had to get into a carriage in order to figure out the reason earlier, and he bumped all the way, and only climbed out of the car like a broken up until almost noon.
Under the paleness, when he looked back, the fool's stalker actually got a carriage, Song Jinggong understood it thoroughly, people were either tracking or monitoring, afraid that he would run away.
Song Jinggong had no time to pay much attention, and the person who led the way quickened his pace towards the small cow village, turning left and right, and for about a quarter of an hour, the person stopped in front of a very small courtyard.
In the middle of the fence made of branches more than half a person high is a small wooden door, not locked, blown by the wind, swinging inside and out, there is still a person standing in the courtyard, Song Jinggong has seen it, he used to stay by the side of Songri Nigan, since he is here, I think he must be in the house when he comes to Songri Nigan.
"If there are chicks in this egg, I'll buy 10,000 when I go back." Before Song Jinggong could not wait to enter, he heard the familiar shout of Songri Nigan from the house, and from his words, it was known that the chick had not yet hatched, which showed that the chick was a scam.
With a bottom in his heart, Song Jinggong straightened his clothes, walked in with a smile, and said directly as soon as he entered the door: "Whoever sells chickens for two pennies a piece, I will buy as much as I want." ”
When he stood still, he saw an old man, two young men and a woman facing Matsuri Nigan, the woman's face was covered with half a cloth, and from the slightly exposed place, you could see a blue birthmole, no wonder you had to block it.
Two young men stood, while the old man sat on top of something that he didn't know what to call it, which took up part of the room and was connected to the wall at the other end.
"Song Dacaizi, you also arrived here, just right, look at this, this is called kang, it is a place they specially use to replace the hen's nest, this woman said, in two or three days, there will be chicks coming out of the eggs, I am going to live here, wait for the chicks to come out, and then buy 10,000 to go back to raise."
A sturdy man in the room, when he saw the person coming in from outside, said in a stiff voice, this person is Songri Nigan, a Tibetan man.
Song Jinggong replied with a smile: "Songri Nigan, how can you believe this kind of thing, if you can use this thing called kang to help the hen hold the nest, then doesn't it mean that in the future, you can only use the hen to lay eggs?" Let's go back and sort out our goods. ”
When Songri Nican heard Song Jinggong's words, he shook his head and insisted, "No, I must see if this can really make chickens, there are two hundred chickens on the kang, I have already paid the fixed money, if there are no chickens coming out by then, they will compensate me tenfold, and they will know in two days." ”
Song Jinggong looked at the kang, which was covered with a mattress, and thought that there were eggs underneath, "Can it really hatch?" ’
Song Jinggong has already seen it when he entered the yard, there are no chickens in the yard, if he can really hatch the chicks in this way, wouldn't he get more kang like this, and buy eggs elsewhere? A chicken is indeed too cheap for two pennies, and some people will rush to buy it if they sell it, and they will really make a fortune.
After thinking about it for a while, Song Jinggong said to the old man: "Uncle, can you let me also take a look at this egg?" ”
The old man glanced at Song Jinggong, then at the woman, and said, "I want to ask my daughter-in-law about this, she is making this egg." ”
Song Jinggong looked at the woman again with the old man's gaze, the woman was easy to speak, nodded, walked to the side of the kang, reached out and gently lifted the mattress, and there were indeed a lot of eggs in it.
"Songri Nigan, since you want to see it, then I will accompany you for two days." A thought flashed through Song Jinggong's heart, and he also wanted to stay with him.
As for the place to live, it is also simple, it is hot now, just have a place to stay, eat at this house, give some food money, I think this family will not refuse, Song Jinggong is used to suffering these days, not bad for two more days, he wants to see if this family can make chickens.
The old man did not refuse, not only promised to cook for Song Jinggong and others, but also promised to vacate a room for them to live in, and the money was not much, six yuan a day, only some vegetables, if you want to eat meat, you can buy it yourself, and the old man will make it.
At that moment, the three of them were ready to stop, Song Jinggong remembered the person who was watching him again, and came to the door to look out, and sure enough, the person didn't leave, just stood outside the courtyard, staring at the door closely.
Song Jinggong didn't get angry when he saw this, he just stayed if he wanted, took out some money and handed it to the old man, asked him to buy some wine and food, and ate here at noon.

"Don't cut the skin together, beat the skin down first, cut the strips, oil it, and continue."
Tuqiao Village, in the back kitchen of Zhangjia Zhuangzi, Zhang Xiaobao commanded two people who specialize in cooking to be busy there, if it weren't for Zhang Xiaobao who felt that he couldn't pick up the kitchen knife, he wouldn't have to do it with others, he believed that his skills were better.
"Okay, Xiaobao, your level of talking on paper is not low, and what you say is the Tao." Wang Juan saw that Zhang Xiaobao was so busy that it was a mess, and he was 'sincerely complimenting' on the side.
"I don't think this should come out of your mouth, General Wang, who is learning to command, is it possible that the people who learn to command in the military academy are specially holding guns and rushing to the front to line up the troops? I'm a little worried now, if I really find someone to teach you tactics, the biggest possibility is that the general will not sit in the back, but will charge on horseback and call the herald. ”
Zhang Xiaobao didn't care at all, when he instructed others how to cook, he still had time to fight back with lip language.
"That's right, as soon as you said it, I remembered that there is no on-site intelligence display system here, I don't even have a map, and the firepower control is different, so I have to think about it again.
In this way, the most important thing to study now is the matter of individual or group combat, and it is necessary to have a strong long-range strike capability in order to effectively intersperse and encircle. ”
Wang Juan unexpectedly did not refute, nodding his head to admit his shortcomings.
"No, I've never learned this." Based on years of fraud experience, Zhang Xiaobao feels that this time is a bit bad.
"Really? Forgot to study? Close it a few more times maybe you will, no and nothing, I'll teach you, I will. ”
Wang Juan put his face in front of Zhang Xiaobao and said threateningly.
"It's okay, don't wait for the oil to boil before putting sugar, it'll be mushy, put the eggplant, okay, the last dish is done, prepare cold water, withdraw."
Zhang Xiaobao selectively forgot the existence of Wang Juan, ordered the last sentence, turned around and left, when passing the threshold, he tripped over the usually alert and almost fell, but fortunately Wang Juan helped him.
"Look, this is what happens when you don't know the terrain." Wang Juan smiled and pulled Zhang Xiaobao and said.
Lunch is a sumptuous meal, with eight dishes, a soup, and a staple dish.
When everything was served, except for Wang Juan and Zhang Xiaobao, the four adults were dumbfounded, not because everything had eggplant, but because they didn't know how Xiaobao could make so many tricks with eggplant.
"Eat, mother, you eat, Wang Juan and I can eat it ourselves, except for the fried eggplant box and the dry fried eggplant, which are inconvenient to eat, everything else is fine."
Zhang Xiaobao directly picked up an eggplant box with his hand and sent it to his mother's plate to persuade the dishes.
Zhang Wang looked at the eggplant on the table, nodded, and praised: "My son is amazing, which child can make such a variety of eggplants?" ”
Zhang Xiaobao's grandfather and grandmother also smiled and agreed with Zhang Wang's words, and as a result, four adults and two children ate most of the dishes on this table.
Zhang Xiaobao regretted it when he saw that there was still left, he was reluctant to waste things, he was hungry and afraid of wandering for a few years.
"Put it together in the evening and stew it, and we will eat it." Wang Juan arrived to understand Zhang Xiaobao and gestured to the side.
"Forget it, I'll pay attention in the future, try not to waste, and deal with it as before." Zhang Xiaobao replied helplessly.
According to the previous method, that is, these vegetables were poured and fed to the pigs, and some of them would be eaten by the subordinates, which was something that Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan did not want to see, and the subordinates were also humans.
"This kind of thing can be eaten by the two of us, and it's better than when we used to train." Wang Juan continued to persuade.
"I know, I used to run away from wanted people in the mountains, and the bark of grass roots and trees was used to satisfy hunger, but who would let us eat that?" Zhang Xiaobao didn't want to think about it, stood up, said hello to his relatives and walked out.

Two days is not a long time, but it is not a short time, when the first chick broke the eggshell on the kang in the room of the little cow village and got wet and drilled out, no matter how long the wait was, I felt that it was acceptable.
Song Jinggong almost couldn't believe his eyes, he could really use this thing called kang to replace the hen's nest, for a while, the chick had become a golden rooster in his eyes, he didn't care how much money the chick had, what he cared about was the way to hatch the chick.
He understands that in this process, it is not as simple as what the eyes see, there must be some tricks, imagining the days when there will be two big fortunes in the future, when Song Jinggong looked at the woman with a fetal mole on her face, he felt that this woman had such a special beauty.
Matsuri Nikgan also watched the chickens' bodies dry out little by little, even if all these chicks came out with only two hundred, he was happy, ten thousand chicks, it seemed that there was hope.
Just when several people were looking around the chicken, there was a sudden sound of someone talking outside.
"Is this it? Can you use something called kang instead of a hen to hold a nest? ”
"Boss, you're right, this is it." A voice that was supposed to be a subordinate sounded.
Song Jinggong was stunned for a moment, immediately reacted, and said to the old man who was still sitting there with a peaceful look: "Uncle, don't reveal this matter, I'll give you money." ”
"It's not good, Song Dacai, everyone who enters the door is a guest, yo, the second chick also came out." The old man narrowed his eyes, and as soon as he replied to Song Jinggong, another chick's head came out of the eggs on the kang.
