On the 11th National Day, there are a lot of netizens in the Liu family compound, basically these people are familiar with the website of the Liu family compound, and they are usually busy going to work to support their families, and only on this statutory holiday can they come out to rest.

Originally, this Liu family compound was not comparable to those tourist attractions, but there were too many people traveling on the eleventh, and almost every well-known scenic spot was crowded.

The reason why I chose the Liu family compound was because I was tempted by the quiet and natural environment in the countryside and Liu Xiaoyu's life diary and pictures that were constantly updated on the website, and the cost of going out to play was too high, so there were a lot of tourists coming to Liujia Village on the 11th National Day this time.

It has become a problem for people to live more, although there are not many rooms in the Liu family's compound, but there are not many more houses in the village, Nanjing is not cold in the eleventh, as long as you clean up a little, you can live in it.

It's no wonder that the farmhouse will be so hot, they have been accustomed to the stressful rhythm of life in the city, when they suddenly enter the quiet and leisurely countryside, the completely relaxed and happy mood makes those people feel happy even when they see a chicken, not to mention different from the farmhouse meals they ate in the past, so that the people of the village are in a hurry, and by the way, the villagers really make a profit.

During the seven-day holiday of the 11th National Day, many people came and went, most of them dragged their families, and there were also a few travelers who came to play camping and bow hunting. At first, Liu Xiaoyu was still strange, didn't he already explain the situation in the mountains on the website, how can there be any camping and bow hunting in the back mountain, and later I found out that these people are not playing camping or bow hunting, but loneliness (don't shoot, this sentence is very popular on the Internet now, just borrowed) and mood.

Although most people came to the Liujia compound, the compound's ability to pick up customers was really limited, and under Liu Xiaoyu's recommendation, the farmers in Liujia Village were more or less stained with light and shared some benefits, which was really happy.

With the departure of this group of people, the number of posts and popularity on the website of the compound exploded, and people who had been to Liujia Village posted pictures on it, some praised, some put forward opinions and some suggestions, and in general it was a good review. Looking at the hot popularity, Liu Xiaoyu thought to himself that when the orchards and orchards on this side of the compound have grown, at that time, hey... It's hard not to think about it.

"It's dry, watch out for the candles."

Although this is an old statement, it is also very important for the countryside after autumn, and the newspapers have already published many areas that caused fires during the burning of orange stalks, and the losses were heavy.

Eleven has passed, and two new members have been added to Liu Xiaoyu's compound in the past few days, a pair of small cattle and a group of small white geese, all of which he bought from the town, and he bought the geese because he wanted to be able to eat the whole goose eggs at ordinary times, and he didn't buy much compared to the number of chickens and ducks raised in the compound.

As for the cattle bought, it was Liu Xiaoyu on a whim, thinking that the family had pigs and sheep, so he was short of this cow, and he happened to meet someone selling cattle in the town and bought a male and a female back, the two cows were still young, and Liu Xiaoyu didn't have a field for them to cultivate, purely to raise and eat, he felt that this cow raised by his own family should taste better.

Well, chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle, and sheep are all well fed, but fortunately, most of them are herbivores, with pasture and space water all over the mountains, and it will not increase the cost of raising them.

After the winter wheat was planted, it was time for the village to be idle, and every household in the village was idle. There is a crowd of tourists on the 11th National Day, which makes the people in the village very excited, and they feel that the Liu family compound may really be different from before, and it will really become popular, so there are more people who go to the courtyard to chatter when they are free.

Seeing that this farmer has to be idle until the New Year, and this New Year will take a while, seeing that the people in the village are idle, Liu Xiaoyu feels that it is better to find something to do for them.

Speaking of the New Year, now the city people have no New Year's flavor at all, except for the increasingly bad Spring Festival Gala and the sound of firecrackers that have become noise, it is almost impossible to find the atmosphere of the previous New Year.

And Liu Xiaoyu learned when chatting with the people in the village that the village is particular about celebrating the New Year, not only eating and drinking, but also pasting couplets, window flowers and other customs, and even the village will hold its own Spring Festival party, and every household has its own program, which is much more lively than in the city.

made a table of dishes, Liu Xiaoyu called the village chief and the two older uncles in the village to come over for a meal together, the village chief needless to say, these two uncles are the oldest in the village, and the prestige of the village is greater than the village chief to some extent.

Liu Xiaoyu proposed two plans, one is to let the people in the village raise bamboo rats, and Liu Xiaoyu will teach the breeding technology one by one, and the bamboo rats produced will be all underwritten by him. In fact, Liu Xiaoyu knew that once the market of bamboo rats was discovered by everyone, he didn't need to underwrite it at all, and the people in the village would have a place to sell it, but in order to dispel the concerns of the villagers, Liu Xiaoyu still said the underwriting.

The other plan is Liu Xiaoyu's new plan, he is going to raise insects, yes, it is to raise insects, but it is not a pet worm, let alone those messy insects, he is going to raise mealworms.

You may be unfamiliar with mealworms, but if you talk about its scientific name, everyone should be familiar with it: bread worm. That's right, when you go to the pet market, you see the bread worms that the shopkeepers use to feed the birds and pets.

According to the data, dried mealworm products contain 30% fat, more than 50% protein, and also contain phosphorus, potassium, iron, sodium, aluminum and other macro elements and a variety of trace elements. Because dried mealworm larvae contain about 40% protein, pupae contain 57%, and adults contain 60% (according to the "Chinese Medicine Science and Technology News"). Known as the "treasure trove of protein feed", it is definitely one of the best feeds for raising livestock.

Breeding mealworms, that is, do not occupy too much space will not have a large breeding cost, only need a shelter from the sun, some wooden breeding boxes, some different aperture screens, now add rice bran, wheat bran with a little green drink on it, and bamboo rats do not need to feed water, breeding is very convenient.

However, the difference with the bamboo rat is that this mealworm Liu Xiaoyu is still in the theoretical stage, although the breeding method is not difficult, but after all, Liu Xiaoyu has not actually operated, so this plan is only used as a backup, and he is ready to get up first and then talk about it.

Liu Xiaoyu put forward this suggestion when the eleventh thing had not cooled down, and the village chief and the two uncles were very supportive, of course, it was more because of Liu Xiaoyu's underwriting.

Tell the village chief that they are willing to breed bamboo rats in a pair of first, and the rats do not need money to buy, and they will be deducted from the purchase money behind, anyway, this thing breeds quickly, if there are few people in the village who are willing to breed, they can also have two pairs of families.

The mealworms were bred by Liu Xiaoyu first, and then promoted in the whole village when the conditions were ripe.

According to later statistics, there are a total of 120 households in the village, nearly 40 households are willing to breed, accounting for one-third of the total number of households in the village, Liu Xiaoyu is a little cold sweat as soon as the number comes out, a pair of families, 40 households is 40 to 80, dizzy, fortunately, there are still a lot of mountains behind this thing, it is really not good, there is still space, otherwise this kind of rat really can't be provided.

After hearing the notice from the village, that Liu Fugui came again, he didn't come this time to blame Liu Xiaoyu for announcing the bamboo rats, he later also knew that only relying on these people in the village to breed, he was really dissatisfied with the gap in the market, not to mention that forty households were four hundred bamboo rats bred out of the national market is not enough to divide the national market.

He came this time to hear that Liu Xiaoyu was going to raise mealworms, so he specially came to learn about the detailed situation, Liu Xiaoyu had to admire Liu Fugui's sense of wealth, and told the other party very frankly that the current breeding of mealworms is still in the theoretical stage, and it still needs to be practiced to popularize.

Liu Fugui was very adventurous and proposed to practice with Liu Xiaoyu, Liu Xiaoyu thought about it for a while, one person is short, and two people are long, which is a good thing, so he agreed to Liu Fugui's request.

With the network, everything seems simple and easy, the eggs were packed and sent over by EMS, along with some breeding books, Liu Xiaoyu ordered the breeding boxes and screens in the town were also sent over, and the rice bran and wheat bran were also brought back, anyway, in addition to feeding mealworms, these are also good feed for livestock.

It took some time to bump and bump along the way, Liu Xiaoyu finally figured out the breeding process of mealworms, he and Liu Fugui two families, each family raised twenty boxes of mealworms, don't think that this number is large, in fact, it is very little, but for Liu Xiaoyu, who is still in the practice stage, it is enough to have these. Of course, in order to increase the success rate of breeding, these insects have been thrown into the space by him for a period of time before hatching.
