When Wang Guifen returned home, she quickly told her family what she thought.

Finally, he added: "Shui Qing said that he is willing to sell the piglets at the same price as outside."

You don’t have to go outside to carry it to your own village, which saves a lot of energy.

The third brother Li Wen was deeply moved.

How many men don’t like eating meat?

Especially the fat and thick pieces of pork!

When you raise pigs at home, you can eat them as much as you want when the New Year pig is killed.

Even if you don't want to eat the fat pork, it's okay to eat the pig. If you can't sell it at a high price, you can just keep it at home and eat it. At least it's a meat dish.

It's just that "the little piglets have to stir up the grown pork to taste delicious, and we can't do that either."

Wang Guifen had already inquired about it early and said calmly: "Shui Qing and I asked about it. Isn't her father a butcher? When there are no pigs to kill, he also works as a fan of piglets. Otherwise, you think Shuiqing's family Who fanned the little piglet?"

The rest of the people immediately had expressions of realization, and then said with great joy: "That can really be raised!"

"A piglet costs more than a dollar. How about we buy two or three piglets and keep them?"

In the past, they would have been reluctant to buy so much at once. After all, a piglet cost more than a dollar. They went to Fucheng to help a wealthy family, and their daily wages were only twenty or thirty cents. They had to earn two or three months to buy one. Little piglet, if you raise it to death, it will be very painful.

The reason why they are so willing is because they sent potatoes to Mr. Bai last time. The two brothers earned four taels of silver, and the family's silver savings increased a lot, so they dared to take the risk to raise two or three pigs.

The most important thing is that rabbits are coming out of the market one after another, and they will make money from time to time, and raising rabbits is also taught by Shui Qing. Now Shui Qing and the others are raising pigs at home, and they are raising them well. Then they can ask her for advice.

The three brothers and their respective wives became more and more excited as they thought about it. They wished they could buy the piglets and raise them now!

The six people looked at the old village chief, just waiting for him to nod.

But there’s no way dad wouldn’t agree to such a good thing.

Unexpectedly, the old village chief sighed and asked: "You said that pigs should be raised and built in pig pens next to the fence, but have you thought about where to put the fence?

In front is the village gate. When the wind blows, the smell of pig manure spreads throughout the village. Can the village master agree? "

The six of them were silent.

Since the fence was built, the road along the fence has been cleaned up.

The men patrolling the village stepped on it back and forth, making it extremely strong and compact, forming a trail. Even if there was a weed on both sides of the trail, they would easily pull it out!

Coupled with the fact that lime was used to eliminate the sewage after flooding, the village leaders now pay more attention to the hygiene and tidiness of the entire village than before.

Not to mention the location at the entrance of the village in front, even on both sides of the wall.

"At the end of the village, there is only a large open space behind the wall of your Uncle Ding and Aunt Ding's house. But do you think that once you occupy that open space to raise pigs, it will be okay in winter, but who can stand the smell of mosquitoes in summer?" the old village chief asked again.

The six people continued to be silent.

She thought that Shuiqing could raise pigs because her place was large. The pig house was far away from the main house, and the pig pen was located in the downwind, so the smell could not be dispersed. The pig manure was discharged directly to the retting tank under the high ground, eliminating the need to pick it up. The pig manure can also be used to fertilize directly.

It is also easy to fertilize the fields when the time comes.

These conditions are something they cannot meet in the village.

"Then, can you raise it?" Zhang Hui asked naggingly, but she already had the answer in her heart.

In their village, not only were the houses next to each other's houses, they were basically very close to each other. The sheds for raising rabbits already occupied a lot of land, and if they were to raise pigs, they would really be next to each other.

The excited expressions of the other five people dimmed.

The old village chief looked at the children and found that they really wanted to raise them.

Think about it, how can young people not be greedy for meat? The days in the past were indeed too hard. It’s okay if we didn’t see the good days. Now that we have seen them, and with Jin Xiaozi and Shui Qing, life is getting better day by day, who would want to go back to the hard days of the past.

If you want to live a good life with enough food, meat and eggs, you have to rely on your own efforts.

"If it doesn't work in the village, what about outside?"

Li Wen, Wang Guifen and others looked at Dad blankly, outside? What does it mean?

The old village chief was invited to a banquet on the day Jin entered the house. When the women were visiting the house, the old men were outside looking at the chicken, duck, rabbit, and pig pens.

That place is really good. He came back and thought about it carefully. What should he do if he was in this situation?

"I was just thinking, can those few hills of ours be used? Isn't it wasteful to just cut grass and cut firewood there every year?"

The eyes of Li Wen, Wang Guifen and others immediately brightened up and the corners of their mouths raised.

Yes, of the several hills at home, only one was planted with kudzu before! But even planting kudzu won't affect pig raising, not to mention they have several others.

"Jin Xiaozi lives in the highlands. The pig manure is discharged into the manure tank below for retting. We can't compare here. But we can build the pig pen at the foot of the mountain and dig a big hole behind it to use as a manure tank. The same goes for retting directly. , it's remote there, even if there is a smell, it won't affect you.

There is a stove next to Xiaozi's pigsty. After planting pig grass, we can cook and feed the pigs directly on the stove. We can do this when the time comes. We have more money for a big iron pot and can save money on cooking pig food. Go over and feed.

We don’t have wild beasts here, and I think people in the village will learn how to raise piglets in this way. Most of our hills are connected together. When the piglets are about the same size, each family will send people to take turns taking care of them at night. "

Listening to their father's coherent explanation, the three brothers Li Wen were stunned for a while.

Has their father thought about it a long time ago?

Zhang Hui reacted quickly and asked: "Dad, have you ever thought about raising pigs?"

The old village chief smiled lightly.

How can you not be tempted after seeing other people's good things? Naturally, I also want to learn.

In the past, I didn't have much money and didn't dare to try it, because if the attempt failed, it would have a great impact on the family's daily life. Everyone had to live frugally, and it would easily dampen the motivation of the children in the family to work.

But now that they have taken the initiative, it doesn't matter if they say it. Even if it fails, it is still their attempt.

Wang Guifen and Zhao Lan felt that if they were not older, they would really want to jump up and cheer like children!

My father-in-law had really long-term thoughts, and he didn’t tell them until they brought it up!

Always give them useful advice at critical moments.

"I can't live this life~"

"Mother, mother, don't sell your sister! We can't live without our sister!"

"You evil bitch, how could you even think of selling your daughter! I'm going to kill you!"

The noise spread throughout most of the village, mixed with crying.

The old village chief frowned.

Wang Guifen and the others looked at each other and walked out of the room.

Today, Shuiqing's family was killing pigs. Everyone was very happy after replacing the pork. They went out to pick up soil later than yesterday. Which family was making this crying sound?
