Chapter 25: A Litter of Bunnies
The next morning, after eating, as soon as the eldest sister went to work and left, Fang Yuan slipped out, today he didn't bring anything, and ran out empty-handed.
After leaving the family courtyard of the woolen factory, Fang Yuan ran north, and after a night, I don't know if there is any harvest.
The first pit did not move, and the cabbage on top was still on it, but it was frozen into popsicles.
The second and third were the same, there was still no movement, which made Fang Yuan very surprised, knowing that it was winter now.
It's cold and snowy outside, and there's nothing to eat at all, so isn't there a rabbit nearby?
Soon Fang Yuan came to the fourth pit, and when he was still more than twenty meters away from this pit, Fang Yuan's eyes lit up, because this pit had collapsed.
Fang Yuan hurriedly ran over, and sure enough, the cabbage leaf hanging on it was bitten into a gap, Fang Yuan glanced into the pit, and a gray rabbit was curled up at the bottom of the pit.
"Hahaha! It's really a man who dies for money, and the bird dies for food! What do you call it? You call the rabbit a food death. ”
Fang Yuan stretched out his hand and was about to grab it, but after thinking about it, he still didn't stretch his hand down, you must know that rabbits can bite.
Therefore, Fang Yuan thought about it and put it into the space first, after entering the space, he didn't let Fang Yuan clean it up.
With one thought, the rabbit disappeared into the pit, and then Fang Yuan filled the hole, and in one place, it was difficult to catch the second rabbit.
After filling in this pit, Fang Yuan went to the last pit to take a look, where he had dug a total of five pits to catch rabbits.
No way, it's winter now, if it's another season, you don't need to dig a pit so much trouble, just find some thin wire to make a few sets.
But it doesn't work in winter, there are no roads in winter, there is snow everywhere, and there is no place to put it to make a cover.
The last pit was also silent, Fang Yuan shook his head and prepared to go back, one was already good, he was still a little too greedy.
"Goo-goo...... ......"Just as Fang Yuan was about to go back in a circle, he suddenly heard this voice.
"What is it?" Fang Yuan looked at the business.
There is a snow bag here, and the reason why it is called a snow bag is because there is something underneath the snow, but it is all snow on top, so it is called a snow bag.
Fang Yuan walked over and peeled off the snow above, revealing what was underneath the snow, which turned out to be a mess of hay.
"Goo-goo...... Coo...... "Business is ringing again."
This time Fang Yuan heard it clearly, the sound came from under these hay, Fang Yuan hurriedly picked up the hay, and a hole appeared in front of Fang Yuan's eyes.
"Good thing!" Fang Yuan's eyes lit up as he saw four little rabbits about the size of his palm in the hole.
Seeing these four little rabbits, Fang Yuan was entangled, he wouldn't take the female rabbit away, right?
Thinking of this, Fang Yuan disappeared in an instant, and then the person came to the space, grabbed the rabbit and took a look, breathing a sigh of relief.
Because this is a male rabbit, the reason why he is relieved is because if he catches a female rabbit, he really can't bear to eat it.
Coming out of the space, Fang Yuan put away the four little rabbits, of course, into the space.
It's cold and snowy outside, and there's not even anything to eat, but it's different in the space, whether it's the grass or the hill, there's grass everywhere.
It's a pity that he didn't see the female rabbit, otherwise it would be better to put it in together, but he didn't want to think about whether he could catch the female rabbit even if it was there.
Needless to say, this female rabbit should have gone out to find food for the rabbit and has not come back yet.
After receiving the four little rabbits, Fang Yuan was still very happy, at least there were living creatures in the space, and he was going to put these four little rabbits in the space to breed naturally.
It won't take two years, and there will be no shortage of rabbit meat to eat, you must know that the rabbit's reproductive ability is very strong.
Rabbits generally reach adulthood at four months and can conceive when they reach adulthood, while the gestation period of rabbits is forty-four to forty-eight days, that is, they can get a litter in two months.
A litter can have four to ten, not to mention one litter in two months, according to three months, it is four litters in a year.
From now on, the first litter of rabbits will be born in six months, and one litter will be counted as six, and two litters will be twelve.
This is only said about these four rabbits, and in the next year and a half, there will be six more litters, two pairs are twelve litters, or six in one litter, which is eighty.
Don't forget, and at this time, the first litter of rabbits has already laid several litters, and even the next litters have already laid many litters.
Let's put it this way: If you don't eat it quickly in two years, the rabbits in the space will probably be full.
No way, there are no four seasons in the space, it's always like spring, and the most important thing in such a season is food.
Of course, this is talking about rabbit food, and human food is still lacking, because you can't farm in the space, otherwise Fang Yuan won't be worried.
If he could farm the land, Fang Yuan would grow some grain at will, even if he didn't sell it, it would be enough for their family to eat.
In fact, when the space first appeared, Fang Yuan had already done experiments, preparing to plant some sweet potatoes in it, but unfortunately, that meadow only grew grass.
When you plant sweet potatoes in them, they immediately become fertilizer for that meadow.
Fang Yuan also thought about planting sweet potatoes on the mountain bag, but it was still the same, as long as they were planted, they would immediately become fertilizer, which made Fang Yuan very disappointed.
Although he couldn't grow crops, Fang Yuan found that they could be farmed, such as rabbits, and insects.
Of course, this is also because Fang Yuan doesn't have anything else to experiment with, but since rabbits and bugs can be put in, there should be no problem with other animals.
This can be regarded as a gain and a loss!
On the way back, Fang Yuan had been observing these little rabbits, and when they first entered the space, a few little rabbits were still cautious.
It's just that it didn't take long to start eating, too, the rabbit was very timid, and he was a little scared when he first went in.
But when you feel that there is no danger, how can you not eat such fat grass when you put it away.
Fang Yuan went back, but he didn't go home, but went to the place where he lived before, cleaned out a piece of the reeds, and knocked the ice into an ice hole with an axe.
Then he slaughtered the big rabbit, if Fang Yuan was really just an eight-year-old child, it was estimated that he would not dare to kill the rabbit.
After slaughtering the rabbit, Fang Yuan cleaned it and carried it into the vegetable cellar, it wasn't that he didn't want to take it home, but he couldn't take it home to do.
The houses where the family lives are all the kind of houses next to each other, not to mention cooking meat, even if it is a fart next door, you can smell it.
Therefore, Fang Yuan plans to make it here, and then take it home, there is no taste of boiled meat, it should be much better.
Because there were no various spices, Fang Yuan didn't have to work hard, he directly put the cleaned rabbit into the pot, added water, and put a little salt to burn the fire.
Half an hour later, Fang Yuan didn't add any more firewood, because it had already been cooked, although there was no seasoning, but the whole vegetable cellar was wafting with a smell of meat.
In fact, whether you put the seasoning or not, it doesn't have much to do with the flavor of the meat, with the seasoning, it just feels delicious when you eat it.
After simmering for a while, Fang Yuan scooped up the rabbit meat, he didn't throw the broth, and even the pot was put into the space.
After the rabbit meat was cold, Fang Yuan tore the meat off the bones, and then scraped it with a knife after tearing it, so it can be said that there was no waste of any meat.
Not to mention, this rabbit has a lot of meat, and the first lunch box is not finished, and the second lunch box is also filled with a small half box.
After finishing this, Fang Yuan threw the bones into the mountain bag in the space, and buried some soil to turn it into fertilizer.
Put the box full of rabbit meat into the space, put the box with a small half box of rabbit meat into the school bag, and Fang Yuan came out of the vegetable cellar.
At this time, it was only around ten o'clock in the morning, so it can be said that there was plenty of time.
When she got home, her mother was still sleeping, and Fang Yuan didn't disturb her, so she played in the yard.
Fang Yuan looked like a child, so he was playing in the yard, and no one cared, and people passing by greeted him.
Although it has only been a few days, everyone in this courtyard already knows that he is the son that Wang Lin picked up.
Of course, Fang Yuan had almost recognized all the people in this courtyard, but he didn't know who had a relationship with whom.
At about eleven o'clock, my mother got up, and when she came out to fetch water, she saw Fang Yuan playing in the yard and asked, "Son, why didn't you go out to play today?"
"I went out, and there was no one outside, so I was bored and came back. ”
"Uh!" Wang Lin was stunned for a moment and said, "You wait a few more days, I have already gone to the school to ask, and now the school has not answered, I will look for someone when I go back." ”
Wang Lin thought that Fang Yuan was lonely with no one, but unfortunately she didn't know at all, Fang Yuan didn't mean anything like that, he just replied casually.
"Mom, it's okay, you can go anywhere. ”
Fang Yuan was not keen on going to school at all, he was keen on how to improve the living conditions of his family, but unfortunately he was still too young.
Let's put it this way, if he is now fifteen or sixteen years old, or seventeen or eighteen, and comes back from outside to get some food, he can make up a lie and fool him.
But now, no matter what he says, others won't believe it, which is also something that bothers him.
"Well, I'll do it as soon as possible, if it doesn't work, I'll go to your Uncle Jin for help. ”
"Mom, I'm really not in a hurry. Fang Yuan said with a wry smile.
But the more he said this, the more Wang Lin felt that he wanted to go to school, after all, there were people playing in the school.
"Okay, got it. Wang Lin shook her head, and then began to cook.
Fang Yuan ran over at this time, looked up at Wang Lin and asked, "Mom, do you use meal tickets to eat in your factory canteen?"
"Yes, it's a meal ticket, but it's different from the meal ticket outside, it's a meal ticket made by our factory. ”
"Oh, is it also exchanged for food stamps?"
To be honest, this radius is really not very clear, but it should be so, after all, the food eaten in the factory canteen is also food.
