Chastity Layman

Qin Lang started sending chickens to the countryside.

There are many discounts. Eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs can be exchanged for small poultry seedlings as long as they are not bad. Eggs can be exchanged for chickens, ducks, and gooses. There is a special exchange ratio, and there is no deception.

And it is not limited to exchanging eggs for seedlings, locust eggs, river mussels, snails, fish, shrimps, crabs, and even insect maggots can be used to exchange chickens and duck seedlings.

In addition to changing, also continue to buy eggs.

Direct delivery to the countryside, compared to the original reservation, now the seedlings are directly brought to the village entrance, and they are spot on the spot.

Looking at these fuzzy little cubs chirping in the cage, the whole village was very curious.

"It's a good deal to exchange ten eggs for one chick." A toothless man was very energetic.

And his wife, a woman wrapped in coarse cloth, said, "It's more cost-effective to find some bug eggs, touch some fish, shrimp, clam and snails in exchange, and you can exchange chickens with them, and our family can't raise so many chickens." .”

The villagers are simple, but sometimes they are very shrewd. They are counting with their fingers, how can it be more cost-effective, but no matter how they calculate, looking at these spirited little chickens and ducks is very exciting.

I need eggs and old hens to hatch, but now I can exchange some worthless river mussels, fish, shrimps and even worms for these fresh seedlings, which is really a good deal.

"Everyone thinks about it, hurry up and change it, first come first served, after the change, you have to wait until tomorrow or even don't know when, now the seedlings are in high demand, and the number is limited."

The farmers of the Qin family were shouting loudly. Although these people were the servants of the Qin family, some of them were still slaves, but in order to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of these people, Qin Lang directly offered a commission. As long as the more you sell, The more commissions they get, so they are also very proactive now. They came to the countryside early in the morning with Miaozi on their backs, thinking of making two more trips.

Some villagers were still counting there, but some shrewd ones had already run to their homes, and some even ran directly to the fields or even the river canals.

In less than an hour, the industrious Zhang Dungchui brought his family with a lot of mussels and snails. He was the quickest to strike and harvested the most.

His daughter-in-law He Hua brought all the eggs from the family.

After some calculations, in the end Dung Chui's family successfully exchanged for ten chicks, ten ducklings, and another sixty-four renminbi.

"It's ready, isn't it?" Ajaan asked the clerk.

Looking at the things they got, the Dung Cutter family couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear. Although they also exchanged a basket of eggs, compared to him, he felt that they had made a lot of money.

"Yes, yes."

Dung Hammer's wife asked when Ajaan would come again.

"As long as there are seedlings, I will come, and then I will accept things at this price in exchange for seedlings."

"Then the fish, shrimp, clam and snail are still used?"

"Yes, if I didn't come, you can dry these, and they will be collected at that time."

·······

The seedlings brought by A-Jiang were coaxed by the villagers, and many slow-moving ones failed to be replaced, which even caused quarrels. Fortunately, A-Jiang promised repeatedly that he would come again.

By the time Ajaan returned with a full load, the villagers who had been transferred to Miaozi had gone back happily to mark and feed the chickens and ducklings, while the others went up and down the river to find bugs, touch fish, shrimps, clams and snails, saying that they would change them next time. point.

For the people of this era, raising some chickens and ducks to lay eggs is a rare sideline income, which is to earn cash.

Of course, it is cost-effective to exchange worthless things for chickens that can lay eggs.

In the Qin family village in Sanyuan, Zhuangtou Old Wang is now grinning from ear to ear all day long. The old Wang who looked at the greenhouse with disgust when he saw it, and thought it was a waste of firewood, now treats the greenhouse as a treasure.

Not only did they send people to take care of the greenhouse day and night, but they also got up several times every night to check the fire, check the temperature in the greenhouse, and change the sides of the eggs very diligently.

Not only that, these days, he has personally led people to renovate several greenhouses. Now everyone in the village is busy hatching eggs day and night, and even temporarily hired many people from surrounding villages to help.

The employed people don't want money or food, they only ask for chicken seedlings and duck seedlings to pay for their wages.

The red-haired girl next door had come over immediately to take away her seedlings. Except for the first batch of eggs, she later relied on her intuition and thought that Qin Lang could accomplish this, so she sent Zhuang Ding to collect them. Many eggs came over, and now she has a lot of receipts, and she comes to collect seedlings every day.

Seeing the chirping seedlings everywhere in Zhuangzi, Hong Fu Nu was also amazed, never thought that Qin Lang really had this kind of ability.

In fact, she has already thought of many ways to find out the secret of the Qin family's hatching chickens, and indeed, she did not see any hens in the Zhuangzi.

Obviously, the key to the Qin family's hatching of chickens is the houses that were heavily guarded by Lao Wang, and it seems that the houses have been remodeled, with a new chimney, and it seems that they are still lighting fires day and night.

The secret is in it, but Lao Wang guards it tightly, and Hong Fu Nu can't find out.

"Miss, our farm has already received more than 3,000 chicks, 2,000 ducks, and thousands of geese, and we can't keep them anymore."

Zhuangtou Lao Li came to complain helplessly.

"Ma'am, why don't we sell some too?"

Hong Fu Nu looked at the chickens and ducks all over the yard, although they were all young, but the number of them was so large that it made people's brains hurt, not to mention shit everywhere, causing the stench to pervade.

"I don't think the Qin Family Zhuangzi has sold all these seedlings." Hong Fu said, she has been observing the Qin Family Zhuangzi secretly. Since the Qin Family Zhuangzi can be raised, it is obviously worth raising, following in the footsteps of the Qin Family Zhuangzi There is always something wrong.

For example, this time she collected so many chickens and sent them to the Qin family farm, now she has more than 6,000 seedlings?

"I heard that most of the chicks sold by Qinjiazhuangzi are hens, and most of the males are kept. What do you think they raise so many little cocks and ducks? They can't lay eggs?"

The more critical problem is that it is quite a lot to raise dozens of chickens in the village, but now it is difficult to maintain thousands of chickens at a time. There is no way for so many chickens to be free-range, and they must be fed. Once this feed is fed, the cost will increase greatly.

Not to mention, the prince of chickens and ducks will obviously lead to stampedes and other situations.

Although when taking the seedlings, the Qin family told them that these chick and duck seedlings had to stay in the shed when they slept at night, and they had to light a fire in the shed to keep warm, otherwise they would freeze to death easily.

This kind of raising is indeed more costly and troublesome than the original free-range raising.

"How did the Qin family do it? I think they have more chickens and ducks than us!"

"Miss, I went to ask. They are setting up a shed outside the village. At the foot of the mountain, by the river beach, they are enclosing a large piece of land on those wastelands, and then building a shed inside. It is not easy to enclose a large area for chickens and ducks. If you get sick from being trampled on, you can build a shed to avoid the rain and keep warm at night.”

"That way you have to be fed." Hong Fu asked.

"Hey, they seem to be fed the same feed. They said they prepared it themselves. I asked them for some, but the feed was powdered and then molded. I can't tell what it is, but it smells like it should be made of rice husks and wheat husks. The bran, and some soybean meal, seem to smell fishy, ​​and seem to have fish bone meal, and seem to have grass leaves, etc., very mixed."

"Do you still have this kind of feed? Let me see."

Lao Li hurriedly fetched the feed, and Hong Fu Nu poured it out and studied it for a long time, and she also thought that what Lao Li said was right, the feed used in this feed was very complex, and after grinding, it was impossible to tell what the original material was. There is a strong fishy smell, and obvious chaff, grass powder, etc. can be seen.

Clapping her hands, Hong Fu said, "This thing reminds me of the seasoning packets sold in Qin Sanlang's workshop before. It smells like this, but it's not so fishy."

Obviously, the Qin family's raising chickens and ducks is a brand new farming model, not the traditional small-scale free-range farming, so they set up a shed to enclose the land and prepare feed.

"Does the Qin family sell this feed?" Hong Funu asked.

"It's not expensive to sell, but if we also use this feed to raise it, it's not a small number to eat every day."

Zhang Chuchen thought for a while, "Well, let's follow the example of the Qin family, first find a place outside the village and build seven or eight sheds for him, enclose a few plots of land, and raise a hundred for each plot, I think These seedlings are easy to die if they are raised too closely, and the remaining seedlings, like Zhang's, are sold."

Zhang Chuchen's request is that the seedlings are only exchanged for eggs, or they can be sold directly for money, or for grain, and the price must be higher than that of the Qin family. What core secrets, they just need to be a second-hand dealer, collect eggs from the people, and then get them to Qin Lang's for seedlings, and then use the seedlings to increase the price to exchange eggs or sell money, once in and out, it can be guaranteed Earn a lot.

"Miss, can't we do this?" Lao Li hesitated.

"What's the matter, isn't the Qin family open to accepting it?" Hong Fu Nu was not so afraid.

In Chang'an City, Pingkangfang Yiguo Mansion.

The old Wangtou of Sanyuan Zhuangzi came here after receiving the order from the mansion. When he arrived, he found that not only he was summoned, but also the Zhuangtou at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, as well as the Zhuangtou from the west of Beijing, and even those from Shayuan, Weinan, and Shangluo. The heads of the Qin family manor in several places have come.

In addition to the heads of these manors, many workshop owners and shopkeepers of the Qin family's workshops also came.

After we met and communicated, Old Wang found out that now the Qin family is not the only manor incubating chicken and duck seedlings. The Qin family has now established dozens of hatching gardens in Guanzhong, Shanguo outside the pass, and Shangluo and other places. , has more than one hundred greenhouses, incubating seedlings day and night.

In addition, many new feed processing workshops have been built, and the fish, shrimp, insect eggs, clam snails, etc. mixed with rice husk, soybean meal, and green grass are being processed into chicken feed.

This time the village called them here mainly to put another burden on them, let them further expand the scale of some greenhouses, increase hatching production capacity, and increase feed production.

In addition, each manor and workshop should also build several chicken and duck farms.

Lao Wang was secretly startled, isn't this a bit too violent? Will it be too big?
