During this period of time in his hometown, Wang Quan watched the rooster crowing in the early morning and invited the sun out of the east, and in the evening watched the frog shouting to send the sun back from the west, helping his brother's family break corn and shaving sweet potatoes during the day, and gossiping and cooking with his old father at night, eating well and sleeping soundly, although there was still not much meat on his body, his mental state was much better than when he first came home.

Several cadres of the village committee often visited Wang Quan and asked him for advice on how to get rid of poverty and become rich. Wang Quan had been away from his hometown for many years, and he didn't know much about the countryside, and he didn't dare to pretend to understand, so he secretly went to the town, bought a few books and magazines on agriculture, and took time to quietly flip through them.

Relatives and friends often come to the house to talk to Wang Quan to chat, Yuexiu heard that her uncle and cousin had come back from the city, and they also brought some peanuts that had just been shaved out of the ground, and the fruit that had just been picked from the tree, and rushed over with her husband.

Yuexiu's husband's surname is Liang, and he met Wang Quan once when he was selling vegetables in the city. He told Wang Quan that after he and Yuexiu returned from working in the city, in addition to planting a few acres of responsible fields, their main energy was to raise pigs. Wang Quan asked him about his current living situation, and Xiao Liang said: "As long as you are willing to use your brains and contribute your strength in the countryside, you will live a good life. ”

"How many tons of vegetables can you sell a day when you're in town?" Wang Quan asked him in surprise.

"Yes, I take my children in the morning, pull greens, and squat at the free market to sell them for hours. After the free market closed at 10 a.m., I would take advantage of the fact that the residents were about to cook at noon and squat in front of some neighborhoods to sell for a while. In the afternoon, when people are getting off work, I squat on the side of the road and sell for a while, so that isn't it two or three 'squatting' every day! ”

Wang Quan said with a smile: "Your speech is really interesting, I know that it is not easy for countrymen to do something in the city, they have to suffer a lot of hardships and grievances. ”

"There is nothing to endure hardship, rural people are not afraid of hardship, but rural people are looked down upon in the city, and they are always angry and unbearable. Our living requirements in the city are not high, you eat meat and I drink soup, you drink soup and I smell the fragrance, to ensure a minimum of human dignity, with basic living conditions, not hungry, not freezing, how much can you make a few money, and it will be satisfied. However, some people in the city always look down on us, and even take their jobs away from us, which is unreasonable. Xiao Liang said angrily.

Wang Quan said: "Some people in the city are prejudiced against the countrymen, and some people in the countryside are also prejudiced against the city people. In fact, many people in the city still welcome peasants into the city, and the peasants in the city provide a lot of convenience for the residents' lives. Some rural people think that people in the city look down on them, first of all, they have an inferiority complex and have formed an extreme view of some things. ”

"Anyway, I don't want to go to the city anymore." Xiao Liang said, "Of course, those days in the city were not without help to me, the people in the city have flexible brains and are very good at making money, and some of their practices inspired me." After I came back from the city, I started to raise pigs, pig farming is actually very knowledgeable, I first bought books and magazines, armed myself with scientific and technological knowledge, learning by doing, learning by doing. Other people's pigs are raised in the spring and sold in the autumn, and they are raised for more than half a year. The pigs I raise can grow an average of one or two catties of meat per head every day, and the piglets bought from the other breeding factories can be slaughtered and marketed after feeding them for three or four months. ”

Wang Quan's old father was fascinated by the listening, and asked Xiao Liang in disbelief: "Are the pigs you raise fed with feed or beaten with a gas bag?" ”

Xiao Liang smiled and said: "If my uncle doesn't believe it, you can follow me over to have a look, pig breeding must be scientific, and you can't grasp the traditional methods." Take pig food as an example, what was fed in the original, and now pay attention to scientific feeding, in addition to bran vegetables, grain, but also feed biogas slurry, chicken manure, straw and animal feed, of course, additives. The speed of the pig's growth and the living environment also have a lot to do with it, the original pigsty is hot in summer and cold in winter, and the pigsty is almost half a year in which there is almost no meat, and my pigsty is warm in winter and cool in summer. The pigs slept on the fermentation bed, drank clean water, ate compound feed, and watched the growth of the whole day by day. ”

Wang Quan has also read some books on raising pigs and vegetables in the past few days, and after listening to the young man's words, he also pretended to be an expert and said: "If you want to raise pigs well, feed adjustment, epidemic prevention and treatment, and living environment are all important factors, and another important aspect is to choose excellent breeds." ”

Xiao Liang nodded in agreement.

"What breed of pigs do you have?" Wang Quan's father asked Xiao Liang.

"There's the Yorkshire pig in the UK, and there's the Landrace pig in the US."

"You dare to raise foreign pigs, do you know foreign languages? If you don't know a foreign language, you shout at the pigs, can they understand? ”

Listening to the old man's words, Wang Quan and Xiao Liang couldn't help laughing, Xiao Liang said: "Uncle, your old man doesn't know, foreign breeds of pigs are also bred in China, even if it is a pig shipped from a foreign country, it can't understand what is Chinese, what is a foreign language, in their eyes, the two-legged people are the same, whose voice is loud it is afraid, whose voice is small it ignores." If pigs were as smart as humans and could understand what was being said, they wouldn't get fat and let people kill and eat meat. ”

Wang Quan said: "I am also interested in pig farming now, when will I visit your home?" ”

Xiao Liang said: "Cousin, don't go now, when everyone has harvested autumn and the farming is idle, I want to find some people to help me renovate the brick house into a two-story building, and when my family's new house is built, you can go and live for a few days." Yuexiu and I had some savings when we were working in the city, and now we have made some money from pig farming, so we want to improve our housing conditions in addition to planning to expand the scale of pig farming. ”

Wang Quan said happily: "At the end of this month, I will go back to the city to deal with some affairs, and when I come back after a while, your family's new house should also be built, and I will go with your cousin and aunt at that time." If it weren't for the people in the city to broaden your mind, you might not have been able to get rich so quickly! ”

Xiao Liang blushed and said, "You're right!" ”

Wang Quan ran for two days to visit his former classmates and friends in the town and county, a few of whom are still working, most of them have retired, and some of them have long been separated by yin and yang, and they will never see each other.

After returning to the village, Wang Quan called the secretary of the party branch and the director of the village committee together and said: "Through the situation I have learned about in the past few days, I feel that there is still a great potential for the development of production in our village. I saw that almost every family in the village raised pigs, and the streets were full of manure and urine, and the smell was stinking, and everyone was busy, and the benefits were not high. We should set up a pig association like some places, pigs are still raised by themselves, but breed improvement, feed raising, health and epidemic prevention, external sales, etc., must have a special person in charge, division of labor and cooperation, so as to save money and trouble, so as not to go outside blindly. I also know that some places use biogas well, but we still have no here, and our village has straw, weeds, human manure and animal manure, which are all good materials for biogas production. A biogas digester has been built, biogas can be used for cooking, biogas slurry can be fed to pigs, and biogas residue can be used to fertilize the field, which is not only waste utilization, but also can improve the environment and reduce pollution. Of course, to use biogas, you have to invest in the construction of a pond first, and spend a part of the money. I know that if you don't get benefits, the people will not spend money first, and if you shout ten times, it is better to take the lead in doing it, which requires the cadres to go first. ”

"Uncle Quan has lived in the city for a long time, and the affairs of the countryside are also very popular!" The village party secretary was surprised.

In fact, there are many projects in rural areas that have great development potential, the key is that we must be good at using our brains, and we must be willing to invest in the early stage." Wang Quan said.

Seeing that the reaction of the two village cadres was not very strong, Wang Quan knew that they did not have a bottom line in their hearts about what they were talking about, so he said to the two young people in a consultative tone: "In this way, after I come back from Beijing next time, I will pay for the construction of a biogas digester and conduct an experiment at my brother's house, and strive to build the pond well this year, and then produce gas in the spring next year. On the matter of the pig association, you should first ask for everyone's opinions, as long as the reason is clear, I think they will support it. ”

The branch secretary said that what Wang Quan said was reasonable, and he was ready to convene the cadres in the village to unify their thinking, and if everyone thought it was feasible, he would put forward a specific implementation plan.
