Chapter 223: Buying and Selling Rabbits
"Isn't that going to be too much of a hassle for you?" Tang Ying hesitated.
She knew that Qin Xi wanted to help her, but if her rabbits were still kept here in Qin Xi, what was the difference between them and those raised by Qin Xi herself, at most, she or He Yuan came over to feed them every day.
"No! If you don't think it's too much, when you go to mow the grass, just help me cut some by the way, I have a lot of rabbits, no matter how much it is, it's not enough to eat. ”
The blades of grass that the rabbit can't eat will be cleaned out along with the rabbit's poop the next day, and the entire firewood house will be cleaned again.
Raising rabbits, hygiene is still very important, if it is too dirty, emitting a peculiar smell, it feels like the whole family has become buried.
They piled up rabbit droppings in the vegetable garden behind the house, and although their third of the land was only bloomed this year, the sweet potatoes that grew in it were no worse than the vegetable gardens that other people's families had carefully cared for for a long time.
Three points of sweet potatoes, Qinxi they harvested a total of more than 300 catties of sweet potatoes, left 100 catties for eating, the rest, all shaved, dried sweet potatoes, one pound of sweet potatoes can probably dry four taels of dried sweet potatoes, more than 200 catties of fresh sweet potatoes, dried 100 catties of dried sweet potatoes.
The family bought a large vat, which can hold about 150 catties of grain, the fine grains at home, and some things that cannot be damp, all of which are packed into the vat, even the dried sweet potatoes, are put into more than 70 catties, put at the bottom, and the rest are placed outside, and they can be eaten and taken.
In addition, after the autumn harvest, as soon as the public grain was handed over, the three brothers and sisters added together, and they also received more than 600 catties of grain and some cloth stamps and meat stamps.
These grains are more miscellaneous, and the bulk is still sweet potatoes, but peanuts, soybeans, corn, rice, sorghum and other things all add up, and there are more than 200 catties.
Peanuts, sorghum and corn cobs, Qin Xi did not put them in the tank, these things are relatively moisture-resistant, as long as they are dried in the sun, they can be put away, every one or two months, you can also find a good weather, spend a day, take them out to dry, it will be more resistant to storage.
Rice and soybeans, Qin Xi is placed in a large vat, because she is more interested in these two things, one is fine grain, and the other is high-protein food, whether it is soybean stewed pig's trotters, or rice porridge, that is her favorite food.
What's more, during the Chinese New Year, you can also scoop a small bowl of soybeans in exchange for a large piece of white tofu.
As for sweet potatoes, of course, they were kept and eaten.
In the countryside, sweet potatoes are the staple food.
Like what roasted sweet potatoes boiled sweet potato sweet potato porridge and the like, change the tricks!
They still belong to the kind of food that eats better, like some people in the village who have a large population, especially those with more children, sweet potatoes are mixed with wild vegetables to eat, so that it seems to be more and enough.
If you don't have enough sweet potatoes to eat, you can make up wild vegetables and top one.
"Okay, but if it's a rabbit, I'm going to spend money to buy it, don't refuse this, if you refuse, I won't want it." Tang Ying lowered her eyebrows and said.
Her self-esteem made her unable to accept Qin Xi's feed, and she didn't have the face to accept it, so she taught her not to take a stitch from others, and to pay back what she owed, otherwise she would not be able to pass the hurdle on her conscience alone.
"Yes, but if you don't take advantage of it now, don't rush to give me this money, and when you raise these two rabbits, the big rabbit will give birth to the little rabbit, and the little rabbit will grow up."
"When the time comes, you can just give me back a pair of rabbits."
Hearing Qin Xi's words, Tang Ying breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately Qin Xi didn't refuse, otherwise, she wouldn't have the face to accept the rabbit.
However, it is impossible to owe.
Her temperament is very similar to Qin Xi, let her owe something to others, she will feel very uncomfortable, although she is poor now, but she is not so poor that she can't get ten yuan.
After the autumn harvest, she and He Yuan both received some money, she was eight yuan two, and He Yuan was twelve yuan two.
The matter of raising rabbits must be pulled into He Yuan, many of them are mixed together, and in this matter, they have no intention of separating.
To be honest, a person who wants to work to earn money, and who wants to raise rabbits to earn money, has to cook on his own stove every day, is really too busy.
It's a different story if there is another person to help them, and the two of them can work together.
Although she and He Yuan have not officially pierced the window paper with each other, the relationship between the two of them is no different from the person they are talking about, and both of them regard each other as their future other half, and have a desire for exclusivity.
"No, sell it to me for five dollars now!"
"From now on, I can learn how to raise rabbits from you, I'm not stupid, after a year of study, I should be able to learn this thing well."
The price given by Tang Ying is definitely not low.
You know, Qin Xi and they took the risk of taking the rabbit to the black market to sell, but it was only two or three pounds a piece, just now Qin Xi also said that she would give her a preferential price, and now her rabbit is only a little more than four catties, and the price of five yuan a piece is already comparable to the black market.
"Okay, I'm not polite to you, in winter, the rabbits can eat less, your two rabbits, this winter, with my rabbits, eat the dried sweet potato vines I prepared!"
"Usually, we can go outside together, especially where there is water, and maybe we can find some fresh weeds and vegetables for the rabbits."
Those sweet potato vines are pinched by her own vegetable garden, after all, it is not good for sweet potato vines to grow too densely, and at a certain time, they must turn over the vines, so as not to take root and disperse the nutrients of sweet potatoes.
When turning the sweet potato vines, some of the vines are too many and too long, and they will be pinched off, and the pinched sweet potato vines can be dried as a food reserve for rabbits in winter.
They also bought some sweet potato vines from the team and came back, they were bought and dried in good weather, and it took a few days to dry, they kept it very well, there was absolutely no mold and rot, and the broken dried sweet potato vines were fed to the rabbits to eat, which would cause them to get sick and die.
Since you want to raise this group of small things with fragile stomachs, of course you have to serve them.
The vegetable field behind the house is not empty after harvesting sweet potatoes, except for the place where onions, ginger and garlic are planted, other places are sprinkled with vegetable seeds, such as radish and cabbage heart, which can not be eaten, you can take it back and feed the rabbits.
Of course, most of them are eaten by people, and what rabbits eat are old cabbage gangs, radish leaves, and cabbage leaves.
