Siheyuan: I just want to live

Chapter 187 Changes in Space

After Chen Feng placed the food in the yard outside the city, he walked into the yard and entered the space. After arriving at the space, Chen Feng first went to the space to take a bath, and then began to wander around in the space.

In the space, Chen Feng still went to check on the chickens first, cleaned up the feces in the chicken coop, and filled it with food again.

Nowadays, the eggs produced by these chickens have become an important source of income for Chen Feng every month, so he is willing to use a lot of food to feed them.

So far, Chen Feng has only planted two crops of corn this year, but most of it was crushed into pieces to feed the chickens, and only a small portion is supplied to the scrap station and Sun Xiaojuan every month.

After finishing the chicken coop, Chen Feng went to the two pig pens next to it and found that they were also dirty. He frowned and decided to clean them first.

So he picked up a shovel and a broom and began to clean up the feces and garbage in the pigsty. Although the process was a bit tedious, he still completed the task conscientiously and cleaned the pigsty clean.

Next, Chen Feng cleaned up the pig manure and filled the pig pen with sweet potatoes. These sweet potatoes were all grown by him, and they were carefully selected and cleaned before being put into the pig manure.

Looking at these fresh sweet potatoes, Chen Feng felt filled with a sense of accomplishment.

However, due to some recent events, Chen Feng has been in a low mood, so he does not cook for the pigs as often as before.

He would just pile sweet potatoes in the pig manure every time, and then simply deal with the manure and leave the pigsty in a hurry. This not only ensured the food supply of the pigs, but also saved him a lot of time and energy.

Sweet potato is one of the crops that Chen Feng has been growing. Now, nearly 400,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes are stored above his space.

The sweet potatoes in the field are about to have a bumper harvest, and the expected harvest volume is expected to exceed 500,000 kilograms. Faced with such a rich harvest, Chen Feng couldn't help but feel a surge of joy in his heart.

In the pig manure, Chen Feng looked at the dozen or so Jiangnan black pigs that were gnawing on sweet potatoes, with an unconcealable joy in his eyes.

These black pigs were carefully raised by him, and each one grew fat and healthy. Seeing them happily eating the sweet potatoes he planted, Chen Feng felt extremely satisfied.

These black pigs not only brought him economic benefits, but more importantly, he could kill one at any time when his family was short of meat.

Chen Feng saw that anyone who raised livestock would love these big fat pigs weighing more than 300 kilograms from the bottom of their hearts.

In addition to these domestic pigs, there are more than a dozen large wild boars in Chen Feng's pigpen, but Chen Feng divided the wild boars into different small pens.

Chen Feng didn't know what was going on. When the wild boars grew up to a certain age, they kept fighting. By the time Chen Feng discovered them, one of them had already been bitten to death.

Chen Feng had no choice but to raise them separately. He circled the ones that didn't fight together and divided them into six or seven small circles. This way, Chen Feng never suffered any losses again.

In comparison, domestic pigs are better, as they never fight. However, Chen Feng castrated all the boars except one for breeding.

It’s strange to say, even with Chen Feng’s rough technique, the castrated pigs did not die from infection or excessive bleeding. This is also quite magical.

After leaving the pigsty, Chen Feng came to the rabbit hutch. The situation here was similar to that of the pigsty, but Chen Feng had been consciously controlling the reproduction rate of the rabbits.

So there is no problem of overcrowding or poor hygiene in the rabbit hutch. In fact, the rabbit population in the space has remained stable at around 20,000, which allows each rabbit to have enough space and food resources.

However, when the number of rabbits exceeded this range, Chen Feng had to take some measures to maintain the ecological balance. Sometimes, he would choose to kill the extra rabbits and throw their bodies into the pond for carnivorous fish to eat.

If there are too many rabbits, Chen Feng will release them back into the wild outside the city and let them find their own chances of survival. This not only helps maintain the ecological balance within the space, but is also a way to protect wild animals.

There are many challenges and difficulties for the little rabbits who are released into the wild. In the natural environment, they need to learn to adapt to a new lifestyle, find food and water, and avoid attacks from natural enemies.

Although Chen Feng cannot guarantee that all the little rabbits can survive, he believes that in this way they can get more freedom and opportunities to grow.

After finishing the management of the rabbit nest, Chen Feng went to the edge of the farmland. Here, he began to check the growth of the crops.

Chen Feng dug up a sweet potato from the soil and looked at its round shape. He immediately knew that the sweet potato must have grown big enough to be harvested. He did not hesitate any longer and started to harvest the sweet potatoes.

Time passed by minute by minute, and after several hours of hard work, Chen Feng finally harvested all the sweet potatoes at the bottom.

He straightened up, wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at his watch, and calculated the time in his mind. Suddenly, he realized an important problem-Jin Ling was about to get off work.

Thinking of this, Chen Feng rushed into the bathroom and took a quick shower. Then, he hurriedly left the space and set out on the road home. When he returned home, he just happened to catch up with Jin Ming returning from school.

When Chen Feng saw Jin Ming, he immediately asked with concern: "Jin Ming, school is over! How do you feel? Are you a little hungry now?"

When Jin Ming heard Chen Feng's question, he immediately replied: "Brother-in-law, I am indeed a little hungry. When can we eat?"

When Chen Feng heard his words, the corners of his mouth slightly lifted up, revealing a gentle smile: "Haha, go do your homework for a while now, I'll go cook, and when your sister comes back from get off work, we can have dinner!"

"Okay! Brother-in-law, I'll go do my homework now!"

Jin Ming nodded obediently, then skipped into her room with her schoolbag on her back. Chen Feng looked at Jin Ming's back as she walked into the room, and felt warm and relieved. Then he turned and walked to the kitchen and started to get busy.

After entering the kitchen, Chen Feng did not start cooking immediately. Instead, in an instant, his figure disappeared from the spot and entered the space.

Chen Feng came to a place where food was stored and took out a small rooster that had been stored. This small rooster had bright feathers and a ruddy comb, and it was obviously a high-quality farm chicken.

After Chen Feng cleaned the little rooster, he took out some fresh vegetables and seasonings from the space. These vegetables were all picked by him from the vegetable market, and he felt that they were all fresh and high-quality vegetables.

After everything was ready, Chen Feng left the space again, and the next moment, he appeared in the kitchen, holding the processed little rooster in his hand.

After returning to the kitchen, Chen Feng skillfully cut the chicken into small pieces and put them into the pot to blanch them to remove the fishy smell. Then, he added a proper amount of oil to the pot, heated it up, added onions, ginger and garlic to sauté, and then poured in the chicken pieces and stir-fried until golden brown.

Finally, he added potato cubes, green peppers and other ingredients, seasoned and simmered for a while, and a large plate of chicken with delicious color, aroma and taste was ready.

In addition to the big plate of chicken, Chen Feng also steamed a pot of steaming buns, filling the whole house with an alluring aroma. Just then, there was a sound of the door opening. It turned out to be Jin Ling coming back from get off work.

As soon as Chen Feng came out of the kitchen, he saw Jin Ling pushing a bicycle towards home.

Seeing this, Chen Feng hurried over, then took the bicycle from Jin Ling and pushed it into the house himself.

Then he said, "Jinling, you're back just in time. Go wash your hands and then we'll have dinner."

When Jin Ling heard what Chen Feng said, she nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, husband, I understand. I'll go wash my hands now."

Jin Ling feels really happy now. Not only does she have a job, but her husband also prepares meals for her after get off work.

Last year, Jin Ling couldn't even imagine this, but now it has become a reality.

When Jin Ling washed her hands and sat at the dining table, Chen Feng brought the big plate of chicken to the table and then shouted to Jin Ming in the room.

"Jin Ming, don't do your homework yet. It's time to eat. Do it after you eat!"

After Chen Feng shouted, he heard a voice coming from Jin Ming's room, "I know, brother-in-law! I'll be right out!"

After hearing the response, Chen Feng ignored it and turned around to ask Chen Feng to take out the steamed buns.

When he came out again, Jin Ling and her brother were already sitting at the table, waiting for Chen Feng to take a seat.

Chen Feng put the steamed buns on the table and said, "Okay, let's eat!"

Jin Ling looked at the chicken on the table and said with some concern, "Honey, why is it chicken again today? We have already eaten several chickens this month! If we continue to eat like this, will our family be able to save enough for our future children?"

Chen Feng looked at Jin Ling, whose brows were already furrowed, and said with a smile.

"Don't worry! I bought this chicken from a fellow villager. It didn't cost much. Besides, aren't you the one who gets my salary?"

He patted Jin Ling's hand gently to comfort her.

"We are counting on you to save up the wealth for our children in the future!"

Chen Feng spoke earnestly, hoping to reassure Jin Ling.

However, Jin Ling still said with some concern: "But..."

She seemed to have something else to say, but didn't know how to express it.

"Okay, stop talking and eat! I have to go to the countryside to buy supplies tomorrow, so you will be the one cooking at home tomorrow!"

Chen Feng didn't want to listen to Jin Ling's nagging anymore. He knew that Jin Ling was sometimes too worried, so he interrupted her directly.

He felt that Jin Ling should learn from Jin Ming. Jin Ming sat down and waited until Chen Feng said it was time to eat, then started eating by himself without asking any questions. How great is that!
