Chapter 427: Raising Pigs

But they don't sell pork, and there are no meat stalls in the town.

If a pig is killed, it is estimated that it will not be able to sell it for fifty catties simply by relying on the people in the village.

If you can't sell it for a day or two on this hot day, the pork will stink, and you can't eat it at all.

Chen Butcher found two men with great strength to help lift them down, and took a large weighing pole to weigh the two pigs.

One head is three hundred and two pounds, and one pig is three hundred and sixteen pounds, for a total of six hundred and eighteen pounds.

Although pork costs 14 wen and 15 wen a pound to buy in the town, the purchase price of the whole pig is not so high, and only 8 wen a catty is given.

In addition to meat, there are other things on the pig to build scales, and the butcher has to take some risks when buying and selling, which must be removed, and it can be counted as eight cents a pound.

Six hundred and eighteen catties of pigs were sold for nearly five taels of silver.

Zhang Butcher settled the money on the spot, and then led the two pigs back.

"Later, I'll kill you, and then you can scoop up a few bowls of pig blood and get some meat." Zhang Butcher Road.

"Good!"

After sending off the Zhang butcher, the villagers gathered together and said a few words.

It is nothing more than envy that the Qin family's five rooms have earned so much money all at once.

It is not easy to raise a pig, and the two pigs of the Qin family have also been raised for more than half a year, almost a year.

It's a little reluctant to sell it like this.

Because the Qin family sold it directly through the scales, the villagers who originally wanted to join in the fun and get some pig blood to eat had to dispel their thoughts, and after saying a few words, they went back in twos and threes.

Su Qingyao saw that Shen's face was not very good-looking, and thought that Shen was comfortable, so she stepped forward and asked, "Sister Zhu, what's wrong with you?" ”

"Hey, the pig that has been raised for so long has been sold all at once, and it's a little reluctant to think about it!

Now it's sold, and the pig will have to suffer a crime! ”

The two pigs raised by the Qin family were fed by the Shen family until they were separated.

This feeds for a long time, and naturally has some feelings, which is the same as raising kittens and puppies.

Now that it has been sold, the Shen family is reluctant to fall into reasonableness.

However, the Shen family has made so much effort, and at this time, the Qin family sold the pig, but the Shen family did not get half a benefit, and Su Qingyao felt worthless for the Shen family.

Su Qingyao patted Shen's shoulder and comforted, "Sister Zhu, everyone dies, let alone a beast."

That's its fate, and it can't be helped!

It can only be said that in the next life, reincarnated as a person, don't be a pig again! ”

Shen pulled the corners of his mouth, "Yes, everyone has their own life, not to mention pigs." It's not easy to be a human being! ”

"By the way, Sister Yao, I think it's good to raise pigs, let's build a pigsty and get two piglets back to feed, right?

A little piglet caught back is only three or four hundred Wen, raised to grow two or three hundred catties, sold to sell for a few taels of silver, a year, is also a good entry!

Now catch the two heads back, we can slaughter them for the New Year, not only can we sell some money, but also the meat for the New Year, as well as pickled cured meat, don't spend money to buy it again. ”

Su Qingyao said by Shen was a little moved.

Pig farming is really good.

Basically every household in the village raises pigs.

It's usually a little troublesome to feed, but when you come back with some pigweed, the cost of pig food is not high.

Raising two heads can earn four or five taels a year, which is better than farming.

"Sister Zhu, if you want to raise it, I'll go and discuss it with the fourth brother, it's not difficult to build a pigsty behind our house.

Let's share it together, and it's enough for one family to raise one. ”
