There are only seven sheep left in the total of eight sheep this time, which is probably the lowest in terms of numbers in recent years, and at first glance there may be concerns about the size of the herd.

But don't worry, I have left the three ewes that will give birth next year, and a new batch of lambs will be born around May next year.

As long as the lambs grow up smoothly, the size will still expand again, so the seven adult sheep are far from worrying!

In addition, the well-preserved crocodile meat was finally emptied after more than half a year of eating, and I still admired myself when I thought that so much crocodile meat had been eaten by me.

At the same time, I breathed a sigh of relief that I had finally finished eating, and I would not be messing with crocodiles again in the next few months.

Although the crocodile meat tastes good, but any delicacy pays attention to a moderate amount, its intake is obviously exceeded, and I feel greasy when I see it now!

......

After finishing the construction work, I have to start a different kind of busyness, but this time I am busy with happiness, after all, when the level of life drops to a certain level, I will be very attentive to everything that can make people happy, especially in terms of food.

This is the sixth year on the island, and given the recent busyness and the serious shortage of various ingredients, it is definitely not as hard as the usual dishes during the Chinese New Year.

I chose sweet potatoes as the staple food, because I love sweet potatoes, and if I had to choose one of corn and sweet potatoes as my staple food, I would probably always choose sweet potatoes.

Other dishes include: lamb stew with potatoes, stir-fried lamb, stir-fried spinach, a bowl of steamed eggs, and a coconut as a drink, which has basically remained at the scale of five courses for the past two years, but this year I have reduced one.

It's a pity that the carrots won't be planted until spring and can't be eaten, and they are basically still in the usual style, nothing new!

The long-awaited Chinese New Year did not bring me too long a holiday, and the task in the first half of the year was still severe, so I didn't care about taking too long to rest, and the construction plan for the new year on the second day of the Lunar New Year continued.

I wanted to move the chickens and sheep as soon as possible, but it was too much trouble to run around at both ends, and after a long time, I even had a certain resentment towards them!

......

The remaining nearly 20 days are mainly logging, and if you want to plant corn and sweet potatoes here, land is indispensable!

The progress is not bad, at the beginning of March, plus the half acre that was solved a year ago has been close to the area of two acres, even after removing the stump, there is still more than one acre, I am not ready to expand in a short time, and it is mainly enough at present.

It will take a few days for the land to be cleared, and now the seeds are mainly planted in a small plot, and at the same time, it is necessary to return to the island to plant peanuts and vegetables in the field.

Although the work of farming is relatively easy compared to other tasks, it can take a lot of time at once, at least a month or two, not to mention going back and forth between the two islands.

It's a headache, but when I think about not having to do it again next season, I feel motivated again, and the hardships are only temporary......

When all the crops on the island are planted in half a month, the land of Crocodile Island will be cleared and loosened, because the corn seedlings have been exposed to the ground, and they may have to be slightly wronged this season, and there is no manure as fertilizer, so they can only be completely replaced with plant ash, and the effect will definitely be different.

It's late March after a busy meal, and before I know it, one-tenth of the year has passed!

The size of the various crops is not much different from previous years, and some of them have been reduced, but for now, I don't want to dwell too much on this.

The pressure of survival in the busy field is much less, the progress of the house can be adjusted, and the speed is acceptable, but the sowing season is always two or three months in the spring, and missing it will affect the yield.

......

The 2,000 bricks that I made in an urgent hurry a few years ago have all been air-dried, so it is only natural that the firing will be made, and I am very anxious about this progress.

Before the end of the month, I felt like I was going crazy to drive out another kiln of 2,000 bricks, and the frequency of going back and forth between the two islands was frighteningly high lately, because a lot of time was spent mowing the sheep, and this is still the case with only seven sheep.

The problem of chickens and sheep in a different place has caused me great trouble, and I am going to suspend other work to build the sheepfold and chicken pen for nowhere, and only by letting them come here can I reduce the frequency of going back and forth between the two islands at once.

This is a lot of time, a round trip has to be delayed for about half a day, at least three to five days a month can be saved, and at the current pace of three or five days can do a lot of things!

Chickens and sheep are relatively speaking, and sheep may be much more important to me than chickens, so I am going to move the sheep first, and it is also the sheep that cause me the main trouble.

The area and construction method of the sheepfold are basically copied from the previous sheepfold, there is no need for additional thinking at all, there is a previous experience pack bonus, and the wood needed is also randomly selected next to it, and the construction progress can only be described as fast.

It took only four days for the whole sheepfold to be put into use, and it was probably even more reliable than before, with more densely driven stakes and only a dozen centimeters apart.

This time the door should be made wider, a full meter, the appearance is stronger than before, not to mention the look is more beautiful, but unfortunately the inside is not very exquisite!

......

There are still a lot of tree stumps on the ground in the sheepfold, and I don't have time to clean them up in a short time, so I can only wait for the free time to solve these problems later, and the tiled shed and the floor can only be paved with bricks when the materials are sufficient.

For the time being, I can only use a few pieces of wood to build a shelter for emergencies, and the conditions will definitely not be very good, but slowly improve, after all, this is how it was back then!

The drain and manure tank were necessary before the sheep were moved, and it took me several more days, but it was almost finished.

After making sure the new sheepfold was safe, I returned to the island to ship the sheep over, and I would go crazy if I let them stay here!

After a few months of exhaustion, I lost a lot of weight, but a few sheep were not happy, and it took two or three days to eat a meal, and sometimes it was postponed because of the weather.

Often they will eat desperately at this meal, so unhealthy eating patterns and frequent starvation are estimated to be more than one lap thinner than normal, completely two laps, three laps.

In the past, even if it was not very fat in a normal state, it was still a normal state, and it took a little effort to pick up a sheep.

Now I feel light and fluttering, and the feeling on my body has a skinny feeling, it is estimated that it is only sixty or seventy pounds, and it is indeed not a way to go on like this.

This is also the law of living here, every time I am unlucky, the chickens and sheep will definitely be unlucky, even worse than me!

Even if their role is to provide meat, they are their own livestock after all, and it is somewhat unbearable to see such a scene, but fortunately, the new life is about to begin, and this situation is over......

The sheep are larger, and I am worried that the buoyancy of the boat is not enough, the key is that they will not be very honest when they see the sea for the first time, and will jump up and down on it!

In view of this, I decided to tie the four legs of the sheep together in pairs and carry them to the boat, so that they can only lie on the boat and not stand upright, and at the same time, it will be divided into two shipments for safety.

......

The transportation process of the first boat of four sheep can be said to be smooth, but it can also be said that it is not smooth, the wind and waves along the way are similar to usual, after all, what strong winds and waves have been seen in the past few months.

But the sheep did not cooperate with my work at all, even if their four legs were tied, they were still frightened after seeing the majesty of the sea, and if they could be recorded on the boat, it would be a laughing stock for the usual relief.

The four sheep were like four horns, and they sang to me for hours along the way, and I wanted to fill their mouths if it weren't for the boat.

At the same time, the stability of the boat was greatly affected by the rocking of the boat, and I regretted that I did not hold them with ropes before departure.

The destination has finally arrived in my longing for piercing, and it makes people sweat profusely all the way, if it weren't for their misery, I would have liked to kick one of them twice!

The second boat set sail smoothly in the afternoon, and this time it was much better, not only did they tie their legs, but they were also secured to the boat with ropes, and with one less horn, it was much easier.

All the sheep were put in the pen, and all of a sudden it seemed that the worries in my heart were gone, as long as the chickens were moved over, the future life would be easier.

......

Thinking of not doing anything, I was working on the construction of the chicken pen the day after the sheep moved over, in fact, it was almost the same as before, with twenty or thirty wooden stakes at a density of dozens of centimeters to form a circle.

In the later stage, as long as a layer of fishing nets is added, it will be completed, but in line with the principle of not wasting, I am still going to use the fishing nets on the chicken pen, and I will discard them if I don't take them.

On the third day I returned to the island, first of all I gave a few chickens a big tie, and then they could only stay and watch me demolish their home, and I don't know if they wept at this time......

The process went very smoothly, the nets were dismantled and put on a new chicken pen to enclose them, the relocation of the chickens and sheep was completed, and the later stage was mainly the construction of supporting facilities.

At this point, most of the goods and two kinds of animals on the island have been relocated, and there are still some pottery and a small amount of food and utensils that are still there, but these things are not too important, not to mention that they can be transported in two trips when they go back every ten days and a half months.

I don't have to live a two-point and one-line life anymore, and I have almost lived a back and forth frequency every two to three days for nearly three quarters in the past three quarters, which makes people feel extremely irritable!

But irritability is irritability, and I have to go, two days late may let the chickens and sheep be starved to death, I am happy to think that I will no longer have to run around at two o'clock and one line regularly, and I feel more fragrant when eating!
