The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era
Vol 2 Chapter 1666: End-of-year trivia
The pigeon meat that has been boiled for several hours is not chewy at all, so it is all cheaper for the dogs in the circle.
Putting a few more buns in his mouth, Yang Dongxu was going to make some eight-treasure porridge on the street, or sprinkle soup for a drink. Drinking tea in the morning always feels too light, so it is better to find something to drink on the street.
When I was buying the soup, I saw that tofu skins (thousands of tofu) donated fried dough sticks were very tasty, so I asked for one, two soybean skins and a large fried dough stick, put coriander, garlic juice, and some small pickles, diced radish, and one more The eggs are only two yuan.
Adding a total of three yuan for the soup is not too cheap. You must know that the soup is filled with hot chicken soup and eggs, so it is not too cost-effective to eat for breakfast.
"You don't need to cook at night. At noon, there are various kinds of big fish and meat. It is also good to get some chicken soy brains at night." Yang Dongxu couldn't help thinking while biting on the tough bean curd and fried dough sticks in his mouth.
"How did you come out for breakfast today?" I just finished eating the bean curd in my hand and donated the fried dough sticks to drink the last sip of soup. It happened that Da Liang led his son out for breakfast.
"I didn't make porridge and soup in the morning. I wanted to drink a bowl of soup. I saw that the bean curd donated dough sticks and bought one." Yang Dongxu pulled the soup in the bowl and got up to pay, "You will pay for what you eat together. "
"I'll pay for it for you. You will pay three and two yuan for this meal." Da Liang said with a smile.
"Okay, I won't be polite with you anymore. I'll go to the pigsty to have a look. I think it's pretty busy today." Yang Dongxu said with a polite smile.
Although the pig farm does not sell big pigs anymore, the piglets will be easy-going and old sows will be produced and sold according to the quantity. After so many years of cultivation, the piglets of the Yangjia pig farm are of good breed.
At the end of the year, the big pigs in the pig pens should be sold or killed. The pig pens are already empty, so choosing a few piglets becomes one of the purchases at the end of the year.
Spring starts relatively early this year. The Chinese New Year is on February 7th in the Gregorian calendar, and the beginning of spring will begin before February 4th.
So it won’t be too cold after the new year. The piglets will be caught home at this time, and they can grow meat after adapting to the pigsty and other cold springs.
Raise this way for more than half a year, and wait until the wheat harvest to catch two piglets, so that the big pigs can be sold before and after the autumn harvest. The piglets caught before the wheat harvest can be raised until the end of the year, when the Spring Festival is celebrated, or sold or killed. This is considered a year. Raising two crops of pigs can subsidize some households.
After all, there are few pigs in rural areas to feed the feed and the cost is not much. You can feed pigs with smashed bellflowers, corn stalks, small sweet potatoes that cannot be sold during the autumn harvest, and pumpkins.
"Don't forget to leave two ends for my house."
"I see." Yang Dongxu waved his hand.
He and his wife did not raise the two heads left in Daliang's house. He is now working in a truck company partnered by the county town. His wife does not have time to raise pigs and goats at the shop.
These are all raised by the older generation, that is, those of Dad Yang’s generation are raising them. With the death of their grandfather’s generation, farmers and farming have basically become Dad Yang’s generation. People's main business.
That is to say, the development of traditional Chinese medicine cultivation in rural areas is relatively good, otherwise you want to make it impossible for such young and strong laborers to farm at home.
It is because there is no way to feed the whole family by farming alone. Only when the husband and wife go out to work and leave the children to their parents, can the family's economic environment be improved.
When I came to the pig farm, many people had already come to buy piglets. In a village, two or three families drove a three-wheeled battery cart. Baskets made of bamboo or wattles were filled with wheat straws, and one cart pulled one. Five or six little piglets, but also two or three people and young people back.
"Why are you coming here now?" Zhou Ya had already come when he arrived.
"The buns are a bit greasy to eat. I went to the street to have a drink of soup and run it. I saw Da Liang chatting. You go out and I will catch it. You can't do that." Yang Dongxu said as he put the long rubber shoes next to him. Give it back.
Although the pigpen is quite clean, there is no accumulation of pig manure. But for his usual pair of shoes, if he goes into the pigpen to catch the pigs and run for a few hours, the smell of the soles of his shoes will last for several days when he goes home.
"Then you come." Zhou Ya took off the rubber glove in her hand and handed it over.
Yang Dongxu didn't come, Zhou Ya had already helped catch several piglets, don't look at the piglets, but the thief had strength.
If the elderly from the company she managed saw the usual graceful and virtuous Empress Zhou, it would be quick and cruel to catch Piggy, and it would still be broken with one hand and one absolutely.
The piglets sold to the outside world are generally weaned at about 30 kilograms for more than half a month. Basically, it is more than 26 kilograms, and at most they are just over 30 kilograms.
It’s more cost-effective to buy a piglet of this weight. If it is a big 30 or 40 catties, the farmers who bought it will lose money. After all, the price of the piglet is generally three times the price of the big pig. The more you buy, the more you lose.
It can’t be too small, too small to eat, and it’s easy to get sick. So about 30 catties is the best. At this time, the piglets are basically forty to fifty days old.
15-day-old piglets can basically be fed in small amounts. After the full moon, they will be fed a large amount to reduce their milk. Now they have been weaned for a period of time after 40 to 50 days, and their stomachs have adapted, so they can go home and feed.
Yang Xu and Dad Yang were catching piglets in the pigpen. A group of people stood outside the pigsty and picked them. They wanted to grab the front and back legs and tie them with straw ropes.
Under normal circumstances, families who are not particularly poor will not accept credit, and they are basically cash transactions on the spot. After all, at the end of the year, the Chinese New Year is about to come.
At this time, the debtor, Dad Yang, may feel nothing, but the debtor feels a little uneasy during the New Year. After all, this account is delayed from the end of the year to next year, which is equivalent to my family's debts for two years, which is quite unlucky in the eyes of many people.
Therefore, in many cases, by the end of the year, many people who are in debt will sell pigs, sheep, etc., to clear the debts of the family for a good year.
I have been busy all morning, especially around eleven o'clock in the afternoon, people who went to the street to buy new year goods, gathered everything and brought one or two piglets home, forming a long line.
I originally planned to buy 40 or 50 piglets for two or three days, and they were all liquidated in one morning.
The piglets after the new year will not be sold, so when the half-large pigs in the pigpen now grow up to be sold, the piglets after the new year will also be half-old, so that the pig farm can continue to sell pigs.
There is no need to concentrate on slaughter, so that the pig farm is suddenly empty. The workers will be busy for a period of time to die.
"Okay, you can go back, take the purse back, and reconcile the account. Here, I and your mother can clean up." After Piggy sold, Dad Yang waved his hand to ask Yang Dongxu and Zhou Ya to stop here, and go back and check the account. Prepare lunch or something.
In addition to the Yang family, grandpa also came to help today, but his help was only to maintain order, and there was no way to work. After all, he was in his seventies.
Little Piggy is not weak when he struggles, and it is impossible for him to catch Piggy, so most of his things are chatting with people who come to buy Piggy, or helping to beat and weigh something.
Today at the fair, my uncle’s family did not come to help selling goods on the street. Grandma was helping over there, and the two sons and an old man in the family were unbiased.
"Then Cheng, what do you want to eat at noon?" Yang Dongxu greeted Aunt Hua, cooking it depends on her, he and Zhou Ya are both good at cooking, but there is still an old Xuan who can eat at home.
Some piecemeal tasks, such as washing vegetables, cutting vegetables, and making soup, he was too lazy to do it anyway, and he needed auntie to beat him.
"Get it whatever you want, piglets are out of the slaughter, and the half-old pigs are fed in the middle of the night, and a few hard dishes for lunch." Dad Yang said.
What he said casually was obviously a casual polite, and the next sentence said what he wanted.
The pigs in the pig farm are fed twice a year. They wake up in the morning and come back at midnight at five or six o'clock in the afternoon. The meaty ones are fed with some feed or something.
So take a nap at noon and get up at three or four o'clock in the afternoon to prepare pig food.
"Okay, I see." Yang Dongxu replied.
He Zhou Ya left the pig farm and went to the old house. The old house was not popular all year round, so I basically chose to cook there at the end of the year.
"I'm going to talk to my aunt. They will not be allowed to cook at noon. Let's eat at our house." Zhou Ya said when she left the pig farm.
"Okay, prepare a few more dishes, and find Wen Chen by the way. I don't know where I am going again. I don't know how to go home without looking for lunch."
"It should be playing with Jiejie, I'll look for it later." Zhou Ya nodded.
Two years ago, because of the question of whether Jiejie should go to a good school in the city, the family almost had a lot of conflicts.
In the past two years, the little aunt basically didn't mention this, because when the senior high school entrance examination was first, the boy took less than five hundred points to delay the relationship before getting into the first grade.
My aunt rented a house next to No. 11 Middle School and watched Jiejie go to high school. As a result, he was already in the third year of high school at 17 this year. Looking at the kid who is going to take the college entrance examination next year, his grades are hard to say.
Even if I went to Yanjing and Modu to study in the attached middle school, this is the kind of kind where you don't find a relationship, don't donate teaching buildings, or infrastructure to the school. Basically, you don't want to enter the university.
So the little aunt gave up altogether, seeming to realize that her child is not for studying at all.
The current consideration is that 18-year-old is still a bit too immature. The college entrance examination next year will not go smoothly. Should this kid find a college to learn technology, or just go out to work.
However, although Jiejie did not have good grades in school, UU read www.uukanshu.com, but his communication skills are good. Although poor grades can't be the class leader, after all, the class teachers and students want face, but the physical education committee made it to the third year from the first year of high school.
In the school, I don’t say a hundred responses, but what kind of activities the class holds, what kind of sports meets the school, this kid is an activist, and he did a good job of what he was entrusted to.
Therefore, this kind of character and communication skills training, absolutely first-class sales talents, and then training and training management experience, the future will not be less than that of college.
It's just that parents still value college diplomas, as if to make up for their regret that they can't go to college.
But in fact, in today's society, academic qualifications are certainly a stepping stone, but ability is also very important.
Especially for people like Jiejie who don't need a stepping stone, academic qualifications are really not a necessity, and ability comes first.
What, this master's degree and that doctor's degree are just a halo, is it really useless to Jiejie?
