Chapter 90 Chicken Raising County Order (II)
Under this Wu Yun's investment, the construction of the so-called chicken farm began, and this chicken farm will carry out large-scale plans to breed broilers. And this chicken farm has to reach the scale of 30,000 chickens according to the stock, so as long as this chicken farm is built, it can completely allow the people of Shuo County to eat relatively cheap chicken.
"Miss Wu, in the past, our aquaculture industry was all dependent on agriculture and backyard farming. Now we have set up a chicken farm, which can completely produce broiler chickens in large quantities, so that chicken has become relatively cheap. Chen Fei said.
After this period of research in the village, Chen Fei soon became familiar with the so-called aquaculture industry in ancient times. In ancient China, there was no professional farming, and they were all backyard farming that depended on agriculture. Chickens and ducks are farmed, or some pork. And these breeding techniques are simply backward compared to later generations. In ancient times, raising a chicken, this model of backyard farming could not grow enough in a year. In addition, the cost of feed for ancient courtyard farming is also very huge, because in ancient times, it was directly fed with grain, which was saved by the people from the rations, and it was cherished. This is the reason why meat was extremely expensive in ancient times, because it was very expensive in terms of both the cost of feed and the cost of time for breeding.
Chen Fei's chicken farm is different, he completely adopts the method of getting rich by watching TV in later generations, and searches for various breeding plans in later generations through his mobile phone, and comprehensively considers a plan. This program starts from the selection of chicken breeds, to the hatching of eggs, to the chicks, and finally to him growing up to become a qualified broiler, which is actually a production line. Ancient farming is completely different from later generations, which are all standardized assembly lines, and the huge scale can completely reduce management costs. A farm can manage thousands to 10,000 chickens per person, so the management cost is also much reduced. Coupled with reasonable feed, a relatively much warmer environment, and a very suitable life, it can completely make the broiler grow rapidly.
And Chen Fei saw in the Prosperity Sutra of later generations that it took only forty-five days for a broiler to go from breaking out of the shell to raising it to becoming a broiler. Of course, these conditions were not available in ancient times, so Chen Fei estimated that it would take about 60 days, that is, two months, for his chicken farm to raise a batch of broilers. However, this data is too good to be better than in ancient times. In ancient times, it took a year, and the various costs were much higher than Chen Fei's chicken farm, so there was no cost advantage at all.
"In later generations, chickens needed to be replaced with corn flour, but corn was only brought from the Americas during the Age of Discovery, and now there is no corn here, so it can only be discarded. I can supplement it with wheat bran and feed it with sesame meal or soybean meal. It can increase the proportion of a lot of sesame meal and soybean meal, which should also be able to achieve the effect of raising chickens. But the result of this is that the chicken will be very fat, and the proportion of fat meat is very large. However, this is not necessarily a good thing for the ancient people, there was too little oil and water in ancient times, so it doesn't matter if you are fatter! Chen Fei began to look at the prepared feed and said.
Chen Fei knew that ancient people generally had less oil and water, so he wished that the chicken would be fatter. And Chen Fei heard the leaders in the orphanage say that as early as the later period, there was a difficult period, and all kinds of daily necessities had to be planned, and the purchase had to rely on bills. And at that time, there were people who liked to ask for fat, which was unimaginable for people who later had better living conditions. Because by the end of the twentieth century, the people's lives were much better, and people no longer ate to fill their stomachs, but to eat well, so later the people liked to eat lean meat. But going back a few decades, when supplies were scarce, the people wanted to eat some fatty meat, so that the oil and water could be more sufficient, so that they could save some food. Therefore, Chen Fei is inevitably fatter for the chickens that were raised according to the feed prepared by Chen Fei in ancient times, but it is not necessarily a bad thing for the ancient people. Only people who eat meat often will want to eat lean meat, and ordinary people will pick fat and thin!
Of course, Chen Fei also calculated the cost of raising chickens. The so-called wheat bran is actually the safe agricultural waste that the people burned before. If Chen Fei didn't collect those wheat bran, the people would also burn them, so if Chen Fei collected them, the people probably wouldn't ask for money at all. Of course, if Chen Fei came up with some very low prices to buy, then of course the people would cheer. After all, they can't use this kind of wheat bran, and since someone buys it, of course, it's not good enough.
As for sesame meal and soybean meal, the same is true, after those oil mills use sesame seeds to extract oil, the remaining pile of waste is those sesame meal, which is actually useless. So if Chen Fei can be acquired, of course, it will not be good enough. Of course, this is only Chen Fei's plan, and the next step is to open a soybean oil workshop and use soybeans to extract oil by himself. After all, if you rely on sesame seeds to extract oil, the cost is naturally very high. The cost of soybean oil extraction is naturally much lower, so Chen Fei also has the idea of opening a soybean oil workshop in the next step.
"If that's the case, if it's been raised for 60 days, then the chickens can be slaughtered. That's a good thing for both the income of our Shuo County government and the people. Chen Fei pondered.
"Hurry up, build this chicken farm one day earlier, and the people will be able to eat chicken as soon as possible, then I can give you a reward!" Chen Fei said to the people who had been hired to build a chicken farm.
And the workers who built the chicken farms worked harder because they could get a bounty. Of course, all this money was also paid by Wu Yunlai. According to Chen Fei and her plan, Chen Fei provided technology, the government provided land, and then Wu Yun contributed funds to build this chicken farm. When the time comes, everyone will share the dividends, so that everyone can make a profit, and then these chickens can be sold at a good price. Of course, Chen Fei will not go against the laws of the market and reduce the chicken to a very cheap level all at once, otherwise it may not be a good thing for the people. Even if Chen Fei did not study economics in his later life, he knew that if he violated the laws of the market too much at once, he would be subject to a backlash. Therefore, the price of chicken must be slowly reduced, and only when chicken farms are opened all over the country can it be really cheap.
"Well, I'm the county magistrate for raising chickens, and I'm really going to start raising chickens. However, I believe that when others mention this chicken raising county order in the future, they will definitely give it a thumbs up. Chen Fei thought.
