Chapter 39: Fence the ground first

When he got up the next morning, Changgui remembered that he hadn't asked Shenggui to buy piglets and chickens.

The pig is a flower pig and the chicken is a local yellow chicken. They are the most distinctive local varieties in Changgui's memory, and the taste is also the best.

In later generations, the flower pig was almost extinct, and the yellow chicken was not a pure yellow chicken.

It is true that the flower pig does not grow very quickly, and the fat and lean meat are relatively balanced. Unlike that kind of high-quality pigs, the lean meat ratio is very high. However, the meat is tender and full of flavor. The real flower pork is the real meat.

The pure local yellow chicken is not the same as the breed that grows more than ten catties at every turn in later generations. Adult yellow chickens, roosters are about three or four pounds. The hen is about two or three catties. The meat is delicate and tender, and it is really fragrant when stewed.

"By the way, where do you put all these things?"

Changgui's pigsty hasn't raised pigs for several years, and it is estimated that grass has grown in it. It seems that a large piece of the roof has collapsed, and if it is not repaired, it will definitely not be able to raise pigs.

After breakfast, Changgui was going to Zhang Baocheng's house to ask about the pig, but Zhang Baocheng came over by himself.

"Changgui, have you eaten?" Zhang Baocheng asked.

"I've eaten it, and I'm steaming dumplings for a few puppies, do you want one?" Changgui asked.

Zhang Baocheng looked at Changgui, are you still a person? You feed the dog dog food, you ask if you want one? But this thing is really fragrant, but no matter how fragrant it is, you can't eat it. Feed the dogs! Can I grab food from dogs?

"No, no, you can keep it for yourself." Zhang Baocheng waved his hand.

"I washed the hogweed a few times today. It feels even more fragrant than yesterday's. Changgui said.

Zhang Baocheng shook at that moment, do you want to taste it? Then he said firmly, "Don't eat." ”

"I didn't tell you to eat it. Feeding the dog something that is not suitable for you to eat. Changgui smiled.

Zhang Baocheng's eyes looked around in the kitchen, where is the knife?

"Baocheng, where did you put the piglets and chickens yesterday?" Changgui asked.

"I almost forgot about my business when you hit me like this. Yesterday I put the two little piglets and the chickens in my house. Where do you have a feeding place in your house? You can't live in this house without renovating it, I'll tell you. Zhang Baocheng said.

"Have you fed the piglets?" Changgui asked.

"Hey, just two little piglets, how much can they eat. When I cook pig food, just add a little more. Zhang Baocheng said.

"I got some extra dumplings this morning. You take some back. Changgui said.

"No, you don't." Zhang Baocheng resolutely refused, you always lure me to eat dog food, it's too bad.

"The balls I made are perfect for feeding the piglets. You see, are these three puppies more energetic today? Changgui was worried that feeding the two piglets ordinary pig food would affect the development of the piglets, so he was ready to try it with dumplings.

Only then did Zhang Baocheng find out that Changgui asked him to take the dumplings back, not to give them a family of three to eat, but to feed the piglets. Niang's, it must be deliberate, don't make it clear at first! Bad Lao Tzu will be wrong.

Zong Qiu ran in: "Dad, are the dumplings cooked?" I'm starving. ”

"You've just had breakfast, why are you hungry?" Changgui said angrily.

"I just kept my stomach for the dumplings." Zong Qiu grinned.

Zhang Baocheng stood aside and looked at Changgui with a smile, you just fooled me into eating dog food, but in the end it was your son who ate it.

Xiao Hei is much more honest today, honestly standing in front of his exclusive broken bowl and patiently waiting for Changgui to give it rations.

The three little hemp dogs were not so obedient, and they kept surrounding Changgui's feet, humming and barking.

Changgui waited for the dumplings to cool down almost before taking out the dumplings from them and putting them in the puppy's exclusive broken bowl at a time.

"The little black dog seems to be getting smarter today." Changgui felt some subtle changes in the little black dog.

If I wanted to eat before, I kept throwing myself at Changgui like crazy, but today I was scolded by Changgui, so I honestly squatted in front of my own broken bowl.

After eating the few dumplings that Changgui assigned to him, he didn't go to grab the puppy's food again. Instead, he called at Changgui.

"It's useless to scream, it's gone when you're done eating." Changgui drove the little black dog away.

The little hemp dog seems to have changed as well, and its coat color is a little better and brighter than yesterday.

Zhang Baocheng returned home with the dumplings, but his son Zhang Shenggui rushed up with cheers.

"Wow! Dumplings! So much, I'm going to eat, I'm going to eat. ”

As a result, with a snap, Zhang Baocheng opened his son's hand.

Zhang Shenggui was in pain and cried out loud.

"Why are you hitting a child?" Haruki looked at the man dissatisfied.

"This thing is expensive to feed the piglets. Changgui is really not a thing, and yesterday he tricked our family into eating the dumplings he fed to the dogs. Zhang Baocheng said dissatisfiedly.

Chunxi giggled: "Didn't Changgui eat it himself?" Who said this thing must only be fed to dogs and pigs? Isn't it delicious? ”

"That's right." Zhang Baocheng nodded. Anyway, Changgui himself eats it, and he eats dog food when he eats dog food.

Chunxi grabbed two dumplings, handed one to Shenggui, and then took one and gnawed it himself.

Zhang Baocheng felt very bad, with so many dumplings, those two little piglets, as well as those chickens, must not be able to eat so much. It is clear that he wants his family to eat dog food.

But such a good thing, we must let Changfu know about it. Everyone has to try it.

This thing is so fragrant, I don't know if I can sell it when I take it to Jinshiqiao to set up a stall and sell it. People in the city should love to eat this.

The two little piglets had just changed places, and what they had been fed last night and this morning, barely touched. This is also normal. The piglets have just been weaned and are definitely not interested in pig food. In addition, after leaving the sow, the mood is also relatively low, and I have experienced a fright, so it is strange that the state can be good.

So even if the two little piglets didn't eat, Baocheng and Chunxi weren't worried. After a few days, the little piglet is very hungry and will take the initiative to eat.

However, when Po Cheng put the balls in the basin, the two little piglets seemed to be immediately interested, and then began to taste them, and then swallowed them in large gulps. The two little piglets also grabbed it.

Chunxi heard the movement and walked into the pigsty.

"Did the piglet eat?" Chunxi asked.

"This ball made by Changgui may really be used to feed the pigs." Zhang Baocheng was complaining in his heart, why do you feed pigs so delicious? Isn't this a temptation to eat pig food?

"Well, it seems that pigs don't really like pig food." Chunxi said.

"You can get some and feed those chicks." Zhang Baocheng handed Chunxi a dumpling.

To feed the chickens, you have to cinch the dumplings into minced pieces, otherwise the chicks will not be able to get their mouths.

Newly caught chickens are usually fed rice soaked in water. If you have feed, you can soak it in water before feeding. Also prepare some water so that the chicks can drink at any time.

Of course, in this era, no one in the countryside will buy feed to feed livestock.

Chunxi crumbled the dumplings, soaked them in water, and placed them on a wooden board on the ground.

A group of chicks were chirping and whirling around on the ground, and when they saw the crumbs on the ground, they tasted it, and then they were out of control. A bunch of chicks frantically grab the crumbs. It didn't take long for the crumbs on the ground to be eaten clean.

"Chickens love to eat too. Is this really made from hogweed? Chunxi was a little skeptical.

"Changgui must be a lie, this thing would be strange if it was made of pigweed! This is really a good thing, and it saves a lot of food. Zhang Baocheng said.

Haruki didn't believe that this thing could be made out of hogweed. Changgui said that, it is estimated that it is to make their family feel sorry for a while.

"Changgui is really weird, he suddenly quit drinking, as if he had changed a person. First, I took you to make a lot of money by quarrying stone ears, and now I have made such a ball. Chunxi said.

"He's not just that good now. It's so powerful. An intellectual young man from a provincial city who came to the countryside, such a beautiful girl, slept with him and gave birth to a baby. "Baocheng still admires Changgui very much.

The woman was also quite ruthless, and even threw the child down and left it alone. If I can't. Chunxi sighed.

"That's a ruthless man. When I first came to us, in order to have a better life, I followed Changgui. When he had the opportunity to rely on college, he immediately divorced Changgui. Before leaving, he also told Changgui to let Changgui take the child and wait for her to come back. As a result, after leaving, there was not even a letter. Zhang Baocheng sighed.

"yes, heartless." Haruki couldn't imagine how the woman did it.

"Look at it. Changgui will develop one day. If it goes on like this, it won't be a few years before Changgui will develop. Zhang Baocheng is very sure of this.

After Zhang Baocheng fed the pigs and chickens, he excitedly ran to Changgui's house.

"Changgui, I have an idea. You can engage in farming! You've made a good ball. If you build a farm, you will definitely make a profit. Zhang Baocheng said.

"I was supposed to run a farm. Raise dozens of pigs and a few hundred chickens. "Changgui actually doesn't look down on such small pig farms and chicken farms.

There are many uncertainties in this kind of petty farm. When you encounter a plague, you will lose even your capital. But it's a good fit for his current situation.

This era is not suitable for large-scale development, and the policy risks are too great. Changgui doesn't have the power to protect himself now.

"If you want to build a farm, you have to build a pig farm first. This kind of pigsty in the countryside is okay with one or two heads, but if you raise too much, it is not suitable. Especially in the case of swine fever and the like, if you don't do it well, you have to lose the capital. Changgui said.

"So what are you going to do?" Po Cheng asked.

"Build the wall first. Enclose the whole area of the back mountain. Changgui said.

The back of the mountain is still a public house, and Changgui is surrounded by a wall, and it grows your family's homestead. This large area is enough to set up a pig farm.
