The number of black sows has grown to fifteen, thirteen of which are pregnant, and two are still preparing for pregnancy. It is now November, and by April next year there will be hundreds of first-generation hybrid wild boars. If wild boar meat is to taste good, it must be castrated when it is very young, so as to remove the fishy smell of wild boar meat.

"Mom, you fed me really well. Full marks."

"Thanks to Daya and Erya for coming to help shovel manure these days, otherwise I would be too busy. I'm going home to cook. Let's all eat at home later. Don't go to Damei's house. You must be tired from the journey."

"Good girl."

Liu Xialian inspected the pig house. It was perfect. When it was designed, it was made into a semi-circular house with a roof on one side and no roof on the other. There was a lot of straw thrown in where the pigs slept.

Liu Xia Lian suddenly remembered talking with Sister Tian about breeding. She said that in order to prevent dairy cows from having diarrhea in winter, they let them sleep on the ground covered with grass powder.

Grass meal can actually be used in pig farming, especially for this kind of hybrid wild boar. If they eat too much concentrated feed, it will increase costs and cause constipation.

With the increase in the number of farmed animals, the purchase of grass grinders and grass mowers should also be put on the agenda.

Erya pulled Liu Xialian and said, "Sister, come here, come here."

"whats the matter?"

"Come over here."

Liu Xia Lian and Li Damei followed Erya to the pig house, where there were three fine wire cages, each containing more than a dozen pheasants, almost thirty in total.

"Look, these are the pheasants we caught these days, and the big bucket in the corner over there is full of snappers and catfish."

"How come you two are so capable?"

Dad said, "We thought that my sister must be short of money since she has been running a shop and buying horses recently, so we caught more. We also asked your mother to make dozens of other fish into dried fish and save them for the New Year."

Liu Xia Lian was instantly moved. These two people were really pure and didn't have any extra thoughts, but they would always think about you. Although they could only do some simple work, they would do it very carefully as long as they could.

"No, there are very few aohua in the nearby river. You two must have gone to the water bubble?"

Erya scratched her head awkwardly: "I can't hide anything from my sister. We went to catch pheasants and passed by the wild duck pond. We saw catfish flipping around and couldn't help but cast a few poles. There were so many fish, but we were very careful and only stepped on the footprints left last time."

There are pits everywhere in Shuipuzi that are higher than a person's head. It is really dangerous.

Liu Xialian made a solemn arrangement: "You are not allowed to go again without me. If you are dead, it will be useless to catch more fish."

"I know, sister, we were wrong." Daya and Erya admitted their mistakes and never went there again.

Daya and Erya were bored after being stuck in the village for the past few days, so the next morning, they followed Liu Xialian and Li Damei to the forest farm, riding their big blue horses.

Today the clothing store needs to assemble shelves and place goods. Daya and Erya help Li Damei. The two shop assistants also came at noon. A partition was made in the clothing store. Once the security door is closed at night, they can sleep in it and they don't have to run back and forth anymore.

To everyone's surprise, my father came over that afternoon and said that the train station called and asked him to go to the county town to pick up the goods. Because there were few trains coming to the forest farm train station during that period, the goods could only be picked up at the county train station.

The clothing store was given a name that was very much in line with the times, it was called the Beautiful Clothing Store. At the opening, they only set off a string of firecrackers and did not do any promotions. The prices were just a little cheaper than those in the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the service attitude was good, so people just gave it a try.

On that day, Li Damei and her two salespeople worked all day. When they closed the store in the evening and took inventory, they actually made 320 yuan in sales. This was a surprising number, considering that the gross profit was close to 70%, which means that they made almost 200 yuan today. According to the 5% commission, Li Damei would have 10 yuan today, and the two salespeople would each receive a bonus of one yuan.

However, there were also unpleasant things. When I took inventory of my belongings, I found that two pairs of cotton shoes and a pair of cloth shoes were missing. I couldn't find them no matter how hard I looked. They must have been stolen.

There were no surveillance cameras these days, and the salesperson had to rely on their eyes to keep watch. It was normal for something to be stolen. Moreover, most of the people who stole things were elderly people, and there was nothing you could do if you caught them. You couldn't beat them or scold them, and you could only suffer the loss.

Li Damei smiled and said, "It's okay, don't worry, we'll continue selling tomorrow, this is normal damage. Looking at the situation, the monthly salary is thirty, and there are still bonuses of more than twenty, which is more than fifty a month, which is more than what your parents make."

A salesman grinned: "My father didn't go to work, and our family farmed. This year, the crops weren't well managed, and the public grain we paid was barely enough for food."

"Okay, have some food and rest early. Work hard, the boss said that he will open many stores in the future, and you will all have the opportunity to become store managers."

The store also provides meals, with a living standard of 60 cents per person per day, which is enough to ensure you are full.

The forest farm is so small that when one store opens, the other store will have fewer customers.

The big supply and marketing cooperatives were paid monthly and were not affected, but another store was greatly affected. That store had a huge profit and was very aggressive in asking for prices, so when the Meili Clothing Store opened, it suffered serious losses. It used to sell 300 pieces a day, but it sold more than 150 pieces yesterday.

He ran to the Meili Clothing Store early in the morning to cause trouble, asking Li Damei to raise the prices.

Li Damei looked the woman up and down and asked, "Who are you? Our clothing store is registered with the Industrial and Commercial Administration, the Tax Administration, and has been reported to the Price Bureau. All products are clearly marked with prices, and we are fair to everyone. Why are you raising the prices?"

In the era of information opacity, new clothes bought for five yuan can be sold for thirty-five or forty yuan. However, the beauty clothing store does not sell at such a high price, and earns a moderate profit. It buys clothes for five yuan and sells them for twenty yuan. After deducting the damage of the goods, rent, and labor, there is still a certain profit.

The boss was a middle-aged woman. After being rejected by Li Damei, she came to the door of the store and started cursing.

Li Damei suffered a loss. How could the newbies who had just opened the shop be able to scold the experienced shrew? She was defeated in a short while. However, it did not affect the sales of the goods. Military coats, cotton shoes, and wool sweaters sold well.

At noon, Liu Xia Lian, Daya and Erya came over and saw that Li Damei seemed to be in a bad mood.

"What's wrong, Damei?"

"The clothing store not far away came over and asked us to adjust the price. I disagreed, so she blocked the door and cursed for more than two hours. None of the three of us cursed her."

Swearing is also an art, the voice should be ups and downs, rhythmic, and requires talent. Although Liu Xialian is so talented, it is useless to ask her to swear.

Daya rolled up her sleeves and said, "It's over if I beat her up."

"Don't mess around, and don't hit people. Even though the police station doesn't care about swearing, if you hit someone, they will come. It will be bad if you are arrested and eaten. I will find a way."

Liu Xia Lian's mind raced and she realized that the woman at the door of the car dealership a few days ago had paid her two dollars. It was time to let her go.

He immediately drove a large carriage and rushed to Lao Li's carriage shop to ask the elder sister to come out and help.
