Farming people can not collapse

The weather was good, and Qishun, who was always sick, was extra energetic, and her face was glowing red.She brought out a shaukei of plums that had been washed clean, with a little drop of water on them: "Come on, Zhou Yang, eat plums. The boneless plums I just picked at home are not sour at all."

Boneless plum is another name for crispy plum. The reason why it is called boneless plum is that after the plum is ripe, you can gently break it with your hands, and you will find that the plum flesh and core are clearly separated.In addition, the dialect here also calls the fruit core "bone", so the name "Boneless Plum" is derived.

Boneless plums have always been green-skinned. After ripening, the skin will turn slightly yellow or reddish. The flesh is very compact and has less cellulose. It tastes sweet, crisp, and juicy.

Because the boneless plums have a strong sense of satiety, in the past when there was no food in Rongshu Village, they would pick a handful to barely satisfy their hunger. Therefore, every household in their village has boneless plums, and they grow them for themselves.

Grandpa Qishun also said: "Eat it, eat it, we have two plum trees, the plums were not very ripe before and they were all picked, but now the plums are too ripe to eat..." Realizing what he said, Grandpa Qishun didn't say a word, but silently picked up a plum and took a bite.

When Grandpa Qishun was young, because the couple were honest and kind, they were very popular in the village, and there was a well-behaved Li Min, the dolls in the village liked to hang out at his house.

Children are greedy, and it was not an era when snacks were plentiful and the economy was affluent, so the two plum trees in Grandpa Qishun’s house became the objects of greed for the children in the village—other families also have plum trees, loquat trees, and cherry trees. Or pear trees, but they all take their own trees very seriously, unlike Grandpa Qishun, who would never stop or scold them as long as they didn't bring a bag to pull wool, but only plucked and ate.

However, the excitement disappeared after Li Mei brought back Wei Ge who was still in his infancy.

The children in the village are not allowed to go to Grandpa Qishun's house anymore, and grandpa Qishun's house is rarely visited by people, except for the village chief who comes back to register some information, and the swineherd who comes back to fan and collect pigs, there are almost no one else. .

However, Wei Ge was a taciturn person, and the house was so quiet that it was almost empty.

So seeing Zhou Yang visit the door, Grandma Qishun was overjoyed.

☆☆☆

Zhou Yang didn’t grow plum trees in his own home, but there were three at his grandfather’s house on Tuesday, so he had eaten the boneless plums from the village before, but after eating the ones from Grandpa Qishun’s house, he found that they were sweeter, crisper and tender, with a softer skin. It is also thinner and less astringent. As soon as his eyes lit up, he couldn't help but start thinking about the properties of this plum tree...

Fortunately, he still remembered what he was here for, so he temporarily put the matter of Li Zishu on the plan book, and confessed his intentions: "Grandpa Qishun, you used to be a good pig raiser in the village? I am going to build a pig farm here. A small pig farm, I wonder if you can help me? The salary is one hundred and one month, nine to six, including lunch."

Wei Ge, who was pretending to be doing his homework while holding his homework book, raised his head all of a sudden.

Grandpa Qishun was also confused: "One, one hundred?"

Zhou Yang: "Well, maybe it's not high, but I can only drive so much at the beginning, and if the benefits are good later, the salary can be raised."

Grandpa Qishun waved his hands again and again: "No, no, baby, you misunderstood, I'm not saying you're not tall, I'm saying you're very tall, and you still pack lunch... No, they're all from the same village, I'll eat by myself when I come back at noon that is."

100 yuan is not a lot. I heard that some of the children outside work only 100 yuan a month. He is an old man, how can He De even get 100 yuan?

Grandma Qishun also said: "Yes, I can also send him food at that time." She also knew that the land surrounded by Zhou Yang was not far behind their house, and it was less than half an hour each time. Hour.

She is sick and often needs to take medicine, but it's not so bad that she can't walk this way.

"No, no, you have to pay for lunch at noon. My sister-in-law cooks there. If you don't eat, she will also cook for other employees. And, even if you don't eat lunch, I won't give it to you Meal supplements." Zhou Yang joked.

Grandpa Qishun: "The old man didn't pay for his meals, hey, he just thought the conditions were too good..."

Wei Ge: "Grandpa, you just agree. Since Zhou Yang came to see you, it means that he recognizes your ability. It's not good for you to push back and forth like this."

Wei Ge's sudden utterance made it hard for Grandpa Qishun to say anything.

However, as Wei Ge said, Zhou Yang valued his ability to raise pigs.

Zhou Yang himself intends to use pigs as a specialty of Rongshu Village, so to make the meat quality of pigs better and more special, this means that he needs to focus on various data records, and some labor-intensive chores require Others come to help.

The efficiency of using a helper who knows how to raise pigs and a helper who doesn't know how to raise pigs is naturally different.

Grandpa Qishun doesn't think he deserves the title of a good pig breeder, but he does have the confidence to say that the pigs he raises are better than other people's pigs, even the village chief's No comparison.

Because of the small population, Qishun's family only raises two pigs a year, but the selling price of these two pigs is worth two and a half of other people's family. By this.

Not only because the pigs are heavy, but also because the quality of the pigs is good.

Even the swineherd who received the pigs said that the pigs from Qishun’s grandfather’s house have very few skin spots, the lean meat is red and bright in color, and the fat part is milky white and very hard. They are very good quality pigs.

but……

"You little baby, everyone has taught me a lesson. Also, how can you call Zhou Yang's name directly, no matter how big or small, you should call brother if you understand!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Yang and Wei Ge were a little stiff, and they looked at each other... Zhou Yang slowly raised the corners of his mouth.

Wei Ge immediately understood the meaning of Zhou Yang's smirk, squeezed the blue ballpoint pen tightly in his hand, and then took a deep breath without any trace, and then let it out: "Brother Zhou Yang," he deliberately bit the word "Brother" It was very heavy, "You have to take good care of me in the future."

Grandma Qishun frowned, and was about to say that her grandson should not push the guests too hard, when Zhou Yang nodded: "Well, since you call me brother, that's the right thing to do—you're going to start school soon, right? How about your academic performance? Did you get full marks in the final exam last semester? Have you finished your summer homework? Show me and I’ll see if you’re doing right..."

Wei. Not thinking about studies. His grades are mediocre. Ge's eyes gradually widened following what Zhou Yang said: You are the devil, right?

☆☆☆

Zhou Yang, who considers himself a mediocre farming enthusiast, did not forget his own job when he was giving supplementary lessons to the real little devil Wei Ge.

After renting the land, the next step is to build a pig farm.

Zhou Yang said that he was going to build a small pig farm, but he leased a total of more than 20 mu of land in one go. Based on the area of ​​about 670 square meters per mu, it would be more than 5000 square meters.

Half of them are used to raise the soil to grow crops, and the remaining half are used to establish pig farms.

And according to the established pig raising plan, the land of more than ten acres is enough for Zhou Yang to test the waters and raise hundreds of pigs first.

Because this was the first year, Zhou Yang bought a hundred piglets and thirty sows instead of watering so much under the persuasion of his family.

The former is used to raise meat, while the latter is used to breed young.

In this way, next year, there will be no need to raise pigs from outside.

Not only can save costs, but also can improve the quality of piglets.

Yes, Zhou Yang also had to think about money.

Originally in his plan, 10 yuan should be about the same, but he underestimated that he would have to get the full amount in cash for the transfer of the land use right now, and the country’s minimum contract is 30 years, so this item alone has removed a lot .

But Zhou Yang didn't regret it.

In fact, if it wasn't for his lack of ambition, he planned to contract for a longer period of time.

Then the biggest head is the pig itself.

Today's piglets are about five yuan a piece, which doesn't look expensive, only 500 yuan in total.

But this is just the beginning - it will take four months for a hundred piglets to be raised for slaughter. Based on the feed ratio of 2.8, a 200-jin pig needs 560 catties of feed.

Actually it will be a little more, because there must be waste, so the full load is 600 catties.

Because Zhou Yang has not yet prepared the feed per catty, the initial cost of raising pigs in the village is about 360 cents, which is 36000 yuan for each head. The feed cost for [-] heads is [-] yuan!

This is not counting the sows, the cost price of sows is higher than that of piglets and the cost of feeding is also higher.

There is also the cost of medicine and vaccines for each pig, which is conservatively estimated to be at least [-].

In addition, the construction of the pig farm is also a lot of money, which costs more than 1 yuan. Zhou Yang also requires meticulous attention, and it is estimated to cost [-] yuan.

There is one thing to say, in fact, the cost budget of this small pig farm is under the control of Zhou Yang, but the transportation and manpower consumption of the construction materials such as cement from outside the village to the village are also the same. A considerable expense.

Fortunately, he really still has savings, and he has a lot of savings. Otherwise, it would be embarrassing to start a business and spend all his budget.

After the Zhou family figured out the account, they all persuaded Zhou Yang to reduce the number of piglets and sows, but Zhou Yang felt that if he reduced it, the number of piglets would not be enough, so he pretended to be indifferent under the wide-eyed eyes of his family members. Said that he had expected that there would be a shortage of funds, so he invested again, and now he has more money.

The Zhou family, who were amazed at the speed at which Zhou Yang made money: To be honest, Yang Yang, since you are so good at making money, why do you want to insist on fighting with farming and raising pigs?

Zhou Yang has a deep face: This is probably "love"!

Zhou Family:  …

All in all, the construction of the pig farm is proceeding according to plan, but for Rongshu Village, this is a big project that has not been seen in many years.

Zhou Yang naturally does not let the fat and water flow into other people's fields. He is the one who drew the design of the pig farm, and the labor for the construction is all recruited from the villagers—it is now after the busy farming season, and although the villagers have worked hard all summer under the scorching sun, But if there is a job that makes money, no one is willing to take a break.

Zhou Yang seized the time, so as long as he wanted to come, he wanted anyone who didn't steal and play tricks, so that the villagers who hadn't been rented land could also make a small profit.

The author has something to say: Questioning from the soul of a scholar: How is your academic performance?Did you get full marks in the final exam last semester?Have you finished your summer homework?Show me and I'll see if you're doing it right...
