A poor hero

Chen Chen happily walked into the village with Shen Qian.

On the way, they met the third aunt who was carrying a bucket and preparing to carry water to irrigate the farmland.

Just now, Chen Chen had asked Brother Sheng to help.

So he smiled and told his third aunt these things.

The third aunt heard that there was a water tanker to help, so she didn't have to go out to fetch water, so she followed Chen Chen and the others back.

The three of them were walking along the green brick path in the village, and there were children everywhere singing "The little rabbit is white and white...".

This is a children's song that Chen Chen taught Xiao Niu. Xiao Niu likes it and keeps talking about it every day. Now even the children around him are singing this nursery rhyme.

Chen Chen thought to himself: Maverick is so smart, he still needs to study.

As for breeding rabbits, although the Master did not recommend Chen Chen to breed them.

But Chen Chen didn't want to give up this opportunity to make money.

He also had a plan in mind, which was to follow modern agricultural production practices.

He set up a rabbit breeding cooperative, signed contracts with villagers, and provided them with rabbit seedlings, breeding techniques and medicines for free.

When the rabbits grow up, the cooperative will purchase the villagers’ rabbits at the contract price.

In this way, all the villagers have to do is pull weeds and feed rabbits, and they don't have to bear any financial risk.

I believe that the villagers will be happy to breed rabbits for the rabbit breeding cooperative.

If Chen Chen had villagers join him, he wouldn't have to spend so much time and would have a steady supply of rabbits.

He also planned to hand over the talking points of the rabbit breeding cooperative to Brother Sheng or Brother Daniu in the future, while he would take Shen Qian out to the county to study and be responsible for contacting rabbit sales.

Speaking of Brother Daniu, Chen Chen had not seen him in those days since he came back.

As a result, Chen Chen also missed Brother Daniu a little.

Chen Chen raised his head, looked at Third Aunt, and asked: "Third Aunt, is Brother Daniu's father-in-law feeling better? When will Brother Daniu come back?"

The third aunt shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Hey, your brother Daniu's father-in-law is not in good health, and your sister-in-law Daniu only has a daughter. It seems that my son was raised by someone else."

It turns out that Danniu's wife is an only child, and Danniucai and his wife have been staying at her parents' house to take care of her father-in-law.

In this case, Chen Chen could only have a chat with Brother Sheng when he arrived to bear the burden of the rabbit breeding cooperative.

Chen Chen could only touch his head and said with a smile: "Third Aunt, Brother Daniu is very filial. When he comes back, he will be so kind to you."

Soon, the three of them returned to Chen Chen's home.

Maverick happily caught the two rabbits before feeding Chen Chen some grass.

As soon as he saw Chen Chen back, he immediately pointed at one of the rabbits and shouted happily, "Brother Dachen, I found that this rabbit is pregnant?"

Before Chen Chen could answer, the third aunt retorted to Xiao Niu: "Xiao Niu, what are you talking about? Do you know what Youxi is?"

"Mom, why didn't I know? Just like Wu Hong's sister-in-law, she gets pregnant when she's pregnant. Can you see if this rabbit is pregnant?"

It turns out that sister-in-law Wu Hong found out that she was pregnant these days, and when she was chatting with her third aunt, Xiao Niu listened.

The little kid Maverick saw that one of the rabbits' belly was swollen and thought that the rabbit was happy.

Chen Chen took a closer look and found that it was exactly what Maverick said.

The two rabbits he left behind were both female rabbits. At this time, one of them had an enlarged abdomen, became manic, and was still pulling the hair on his neck.

"Third Aunt, don't tell me, this female rabbit is really pregnant, and she will give birth to a baby rabbit soon."

Chen Chen said cheerfully.

When Shen Qian heard this, she put down her back basket curiously, walked closer to the cage, and took a closer look.

If this litter of little rabbits is born, Chen Chen will really start to have rabbit seedlings and establish a rabbit breeding cooperative.

This is the Ming Dynasty, and we cannot breed in large quantities like modern times. This litter of six or seven little rabbits is enough for a villager to experiment.

Chen Chen told everyone one by one some things to pay attention to when raising rabbits and his plan to establish a rabbit raising cooperative.

"Chen Chen, are you saying that we will just breed rabbits in the future, and then give the baby rabbits to others to raise, and then we will buy them back?"

The third aunt asked in confusion.

The biggest difficulty in raising rabbits is breeding.

Because if you are not careful, the mother rabbit will bite the baby rabbit to death.

But raising rabbits from childhood is as simple as feeding them grass.

As for diseases, in this era, there are generally no solutions, and they can only be prevented by feeding them some herbs.

But Chen Chen believes that a strong person has a strong hand. Chinese medicine will definitely solve this problem, but it has not been discovered yet.

If he wants to establish a large-scale rabbit breeding cooperative, he must find such talents.

So Chen Chen nodded and directly moved back to the concept of modern agriculture, "Third Aunt, yes, in this way, we use the 'cooperative + farmer' industrial development model to increase the added value of rabbits, drive villagers to increase their income and become rich, and achieve production , processing and sales one-stop service.”

Third Aunt couldn't understand a lot of what Chen Chen said, and neither could Shen Qian.

Mavericks didn't understand even more, but when he heard that he was going to raise many, many rabbits, he became excited on the spot.

"Xiao Niu, don't be too happy. Third uncle said that he will take you out of the county to study in the autumn?"

Chen Chen said with a smile.

When Maverick heard that he was going to study out of the county and could no longer raise rabbits, his mouth dropped.

It was Chen Chen who finally said that he could take a rabbit out of the county to raise, and he became happy.

"By the way, Dachen, your sister-in-law Wu Hong is pregnant. Your brother Sheng won't let her go out to work. Otherwise, our first litter of rabbits will be given to her to relieve her boredom?"

The third aunt suddenly remembered that Wu Hong also liked rabbits, so she asked Chen Chen.

Chen Chen nodded and replied: "That's okay. I'll go up the mountain later to see if those nooses have caught the prey, and we'll take them together so that Sister-in-law Wu Hong can recuperate."

Shen Qian and Xiao Niu also wanted to follow them up the mountain, but Chen Chen refused.

The calf is still too young and going up the mountain is dangerous.

As for Shen Qian, the same is true.

Last time Chen Chen took her up the mountain just because he was afraid that her father would make things difficult for her.

Now that Chen Chen has reached an agreement with the Shen family, he has no such concerns, so he keeps Shen Qian here.

This was Chen Chen's fourth trip up the mountain, and he was already very familiar with the path.

Soon, he brought the prey back from the mountain.

This time he originally hunted four pheasants and three rabbits, but he didn't come to pick them up in time, and the two pheasants were eaten by unknown animals.

Chen Chen took Shen Qian and Xiao Niu to bring a pheasant, two rabbits and some sucrose to Sister-in-law Wu Hong.

Chen Sheng was still irrigating the rice fields with the villagers and did not go home.

So Chen Chen discussed his rabbit raising plan with sister-in-law Wu Hong.

Wu Hong was very interested and immediately agreed on behalf of Chen Sheng.

She was originally unwilling to accept Chen Chen's cane sugar, but when Chen Chen said she still had it at home, she agreed to stay.

Chen Chen returned home and asked Mavericks to take back the snacks, gifts and toys he brought back.

He and Shen Qian started tinkering with yellow mud to make white sugar.
