The leisurely life of farmers in mountain villages

Chapter 206 There Are Fish in the Reservoir

Zhao Shihai got a big fat son, and he is much more energetic than before.

Since Zhao Jing was born, Zhao Shihai's old mother has lived in her youngest son's house.

Zhao Shihai had been busy for a week, and things at home were almost arranged, especially for Zhao Jing's jaundice. After taking the prescription Wang Shaodong said, it took two days to see results, and Zhao Shihai admired his nephew even more.

Now is the rainy season, with a lot of rain, the chicken farm on Songbai Mountain is much busier than when it is sunny.

Because it is free-range, that is, there is no chicken coop in the chicken farm, the excrement of the chicken is piled up on the ground. If it is not disposed of in time, it is easy to ferment in this rainy and humid season, and it will stink.

Of course, even if the chicken manure in the chicken coop is treated every day, the smell of the free-range chicken coop is still not very pleasant.In any case, it is impossible to clean the chicken manure in the free-range chicken house more thoroughly than in the cage chicken house.

Five hundred roosters, five hundred hens, and two groups of chickens were in different coops.Now there are ten chicken coops on Songbai Mountain. According to Wang Shaodong's plan, there will be more chicken coops on Songbai Mountain in the future.

There are five people on Songbai Mountain, including Wang Shaodong, who are busy feeding a thousand chickens, cleaning the chicken coop, and giving the chickens water every day.When the weather is fine, Wang Shaodong and the others will also drive the chickens out of the chicken coop, and find a place on the mountain to put the chickens surrounded by barbed wire, so that the chickens can also get addicted to grass and insects.

Of course, [-] roosters and [-] hens must not be stocked together, they must be placed separately in different stocking grid units.

By the beginning of July, the pullets were already a month old, and had grown from the size of an egg to the size of a fist.This little ball-like guy, crawling around in the grass, also looks very funny and cute.

Wang Meina likes little chickens very much, and the job Wang Shaodong arranged for her is very leisurely, so every morning on a sunny day, she goes to Wang Fumin's three-story small western-style building to say hello to Wang Fumin, and then goes to Songbai Mountain to find Wang Shaodong and the others to release the chickens up.

However, Wang Shaodong has always been puzzled. Wang Meina has been here for almost a month, and she doesn't go home once, which means she doesn't want to leave.

Of course, Wang Shaodong welcomed Wang Meina to come, because once Wang Meina came, there would be six people on their side, and they could gather enough people to play enough levels.

Divide six people into two groups, catch each other and fight each other. If you don’t let me open, I won’t let you go. On the bluestone slab under the shade of the big walnut tree, I ran to the mountain spring not far away to drink water when I was thirsty. When he was hungry, Zhao Shihai could always catch some wild game such as hares and pheasants.

This kind of life is a fatal temptation for those who have no lofty aspirations, for people like Wang Shaodong who only know how to enjoy ease.Unexpectedly, for Wang Meina, it was also a fatal temptation.

The rainy season in central Shandong ends at the end of August. After the beginning of autumn, the weather starts to get colder day by day. After the autumnal equinox around September 9, the days begin to shorten and the nights lengthen.

After another month, it entered August in the Gregorian calendar. Seeing that the water in Wujiayuzi Reservoir was rising day by day, it was already close to the maximum water storage capacity.If it rains again, the water will overflow from the dam.

Wang Shaodong intends to use this reservoir to raise fish seedlings, build an industrial chain, and increase income. At this time, Wang Shaodong can start to buy fry and sprinkle them into the water.

At the same time, August is in the solar calendar, and July is in the lunar calendar. If you start raising chickens now, you can raise two batches by the end of the year. In the caged chicken house at the foot of the mountain, another batch of meat chickens is going to be added. The number is still [-]. All eight greenhouses are full.

In July, Wang Shaodong rode a motorcycle to the "Dazhai Township Broiler Chicken Breeding Base" in Dazhai Village twice. Although it was the rainy season, there were still a few families building houses in the breeding base.

When building a house in the rainy season, the cement is not easy to dry. After a long time, the wall skin is easy to crack.

With the passage of time, Wang Shaodong also had a preliminary plan for how to save these unlucky chicken farmers who went astray.However, Wang Shaodong's plan requires a lot of money.

Everything needs money. The next batch of broiler chickens needs an investment of 120 million, the fry in the reservoir needs to be invested 10,000 to 10,000, and the chicken coop on Songbai Mountain also needs [-]+ or ​​even [-]+.

Right now, apart from the usual expenses, the Wang family's cash is only about 160 million. Apart from guaranteeing their own investment, there is absolutely no money for other things.

Of course, the Wang family still has the ability to spend tens of thousands of dollars to simply pave the dirt road.

The third batch of broiler chickens of the Wang family arrived at the chicken coop on the third day of August in the Gregorian calendar in 2003. Two months have passed since the last batch of chickens was sold, which means that a batch of chickens was directly raised in the middle.

Broiler chickens are usually released for 45 days, and then taken out for three days to be disinfected, and then the chickens are ready.In modern chicken farms, all-round three-dimensional disinfection is carried out. When the breeder enters the chicken coop, several disinfection methods must be used, such as lime spreading, potassium permanganate solution spraying, ultraviolet radiation and other disinfection methods.Of course, in the future, Wang’s chicken farm will also adopt such a standard. By that time, the survival rate of a batch of chickens can even reach 90.00% or more, which is several times higher than those raised in ordinary individual chicken coops. percentage point.

At present, the Wang family does not have such conditions. Without such conditions, the risk of chickens in rainy weather is actually very high. Either the respiratory tract or the digestive tract may be infected. In short, the humid environment is the number one enemy of raising chickens.

Calculated based on a batch of chickens every 48 days, a modern farm can raise more than seven batches of chickens a year.

In the breeding industry, it is necessary to pursue economies of scale, and increasing the frequency of breeding is also an effective way to increase the scale.But this year, it seems that the Wang family can only raise four batches of meat chickens.

After the little chickens entered the chicken coop, Wang Fumin and the others began to turn slowly like a fully wound clock.

When the chicken farm was busy, Wang Fumin had to keep an eye on the chicken farm, and then he couldn't take care of the situation on Songbai Mountain and Wujiayuzi, so he could only leave it to his son to take full responsibility for it.

Buying fish fry, stocking fish fry, etc., is something that Wang Shaodong and Zheng Tao took care of after traveling to many places.

Crates of fry were poured into the Wujiayuzi Reservoir, and after a year, the Wang family would salvage the first batch of fish raised by themselves.Thinking of this, looking at the reservoir where small fish jumped out of the water from time to time, Wang Shaodong felt as happy as eating honey.
