Wang Hongjun, the team leader, said: "Ziwen's idea is good. It's time to increase the population of our village. Besides, if we marry a wife, we will not only have more labor force, but also a more complete family."

Second team leader Liu Guoyong also smiled and said: "Yes, now that the living conditions in the village have improved, it is time to consider this issue. But this matter must be done slowly, and there is no rush."

"Ahem! Everyone is right. This matter can be advanced slowly. But let's get back to the chicken farm. In addition to manpower arrangements, we also have to consider the site selection and construction scale of the chicken farm." Wu Dagang said with a smile.

"What's so good about choosing a place? It's next to a pig farm, isn't it?"

Zou Ming from Team 3 spoke up.

"It's not a good idea to be next to a pig farm. The smell is terrible and the chickens will get sick easily."

Team leader Wang Changjiang raised objections.

After hearing this, everyone felt that it made sense.

The captain nodded and said, "Wang Changjiang is right. We can't build it next to a pig farm. Then let's reconsider the location."

Zhou Ziwen thought for a while and thought of a good place. "Captain, I think we can choose the open space on the east side of the village. It is higher, has good drainage, and good ventilation. More importantly, there are some open spaces around it that can be used to grow vegetables and grains. This way, we can use the fertilizer from the chicken farm and provide food for the chickens, reducing feed costs."

After listening to Zhou Ziwen's suggestion, everyone nodded in agreement.

"What about the construction scale of the chicken farm? What do you think?" Wu Dagang asked.

Although he was asking for everyone's opinions, Wu Dagang's eyes were more directed towards Zhou Ziwen.

After all, the plan to raise chickens was proposed by Zhou Ziwen, so his opinion is more important.

"Haha, Uncle Wu, since we are going to build it, let's build it bigger. Don't be so petty. Anyway, we have money now."

"And raising chickens is also very profitable. Apart from other things, the eggs alone can be sold for a lot of money."

Zhou Ziwen spoke out his thoughts.

"Yes, if we are going to build it, let's build it bigger. We have the money."

The captain waved his hand with a magnanimous look on his face.

He felt that Zhou Ziwen's ideas were very much in line with his wishes.

It has only been a short while since the beginning of this year, but the mushroom cultivation base has already harvested several batches of mushrooms.

The piglets at the pig farm are also growing smoothly and initial results are already showing.

Since biological feed is so effective, why be stingy?

Zhou Ziwen has paved the way for them, they just need to do it boldly.

"But I heard that raising too many chickens will make them more likely to get sick. If they get chicken plague, that would be terrible."

Li Lei said with some concern.

He felt that Zhou Ziwen and the captain's ideas were too radical.

"Haha, what are you afraid of? We have Ziwen here! With him here, what disease can't be cured?"

The captain said confidently.

After hearing what the captain said, the others followed suit.

"The captain is right. We have all seen Ziwen's medical skills. With him around, the chickens can definitely be cured if they get sick." Wang Hongjun said.

"Yes, we can't be afraid to expand our scale because we are afraid of getting sick. We have to believe in Ziwen." Liu Guoyong echoed.

"I think Ziwen and the team leader are right. If we are going to build something, we should build a big one. Don't be petty." Wang Changjiang also spoke up.

Seeing how supportive they were, Zhou Ziwen smiled and said nothing. In fact, with his status in the village, his words were more effective than those of Wu Dagang and the team leader.

"Okay, that's it, let's build a big one." The captain made the final decision.

After reaching a consensus, Wu Dagang went to the radio room to announce the good news to the village.

Zhou Ziwen and Li Lei came out of the village committee office together and went to the pig farm to renovate the hatchery.

Just when we were halfway there, Wu Dagang's voice rang out on the radio.

"Attention, fellow villagers. Attention, fellow villagers. After discussion among the production team cadres, we have decided to build a large chicken farm on the vacant land east of the village. Once this chicken farm is built, it will bring more income to our village."

"At the same time, in order to save costs, we need to collect eggs from everyone's homes for hatching. I hope everyone will actively cooperate and send hatchable eggs to the pig farm. We will arrange special personnel to screen and hatch them."

……

After hearing the broadcast, the villagers immediately started talking.

"We are going to build a chicken farm, this is a good thing!" an old man said excitedly.

"Yes, yes, if the chicken farm is built, we will make money again." An old lady echoed.

"Why are you suddenly building a chicken farm? Who came up with this idea?"

"Haha, that must be Zhou Zhiqing! I heard that he made a biological feed that makes pigs grow very fast."

"And the mushroom cultivation base he set up before was also very successful, bringing a lot of income to the village," added another villager.

"Yes, thanks to Zhou Zhiqing. If it weren't for him, our lives wouldn't be so good."

From the villagers’ reactions, it can be seen that they are very supportive of building a chicken farm in the village.

Here, Zhou Ziwen and Li Lei went to Uncle Liang's house together.

Zhou Ziwen and Li Lei came to Uncle Liang's house and knocked gently.

"Who is it?" Uncle Liang's voice came from the room.

"Uncle Liang, it's me, Ziwen, and Li Lei." Zhou Ziwen shouted.

The door opened quickly, and Uncle Liang Wu smiled and invited them in. "It's you two, come in quickly."

Zhou Ziwen and Li Lei walked into the room. Uncle Liang Wu asked them to sit down and then asked, "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Zhou Ziwen said, "Uncle Liang, we are going to raise chickens! We would like to invite you to go to the pig farm to take a look at the hatchery site. We are planning to build some hatching beds there and would like to ask you to help us."

Uncle Liang is a famous carpenter in the village, so Zhou Ziwen feels at ease asking him to do the work.

Although Zhou Ziwen's carpentry skills have reached the maximum level, he is no longer interested in simple work like hatching beds.

The crusher and tractor that were bought earlier have not been repaired yet. He is the only one who can do this job and no one else can replace him.

When Uncle Liang Wu heard this, he smiled and said, "So that's how it is. No problem. I'll go with you to take a look."

Li Lei said, "Uncle Wu, we trust your craftsmanship. This hatching bed is very important to our chicken farm."

Uncle Liang nodded, "Don't worry, I will do my best. But I've heard a little about this chicken farm, and it sounds like a good idea."

Zhou Ziwen said: "Yes, Uncle Wu, we all hope to run the chicken farm well and increase income for the village."

Uncle Liang stood up and said, "Then let's go quickly and finish the incubation bed as soon as possible so that we can start hatching the chicks earlier."

So Zhou Ziwen, Li Lei and Uncle Liang went to the pig farm together.
