Chapter 280
New Year's Eve.

Wushan Town is bustling again.

The main thing is that various engineering teams have started working.There are a total of 137 houses built, under construction, and ready to be built.

There are only fifty or so workers on Chen Mo's side, and each person now has one piece of land.

Cheng Tang has more than [-] workers, and each of them has a piece of land.

The main road in the town is spacious. Chen Mo took a piece of land in the core area, 4 acres, to build a supermarket of more than 500 square meters.The rest was paved with concrete floors to serve as parking spaces.

Next to the supermarket is a park, dozens of acres, which is just a large piece of grass for the time being.

Wushan Town is being planned by the street office.

Then there are the roads, from the existing road to Wushan Town, to Mushan Ranch, more than ten kilometers.To lay asphalt, the cost per kilometer is about 120 million.

This road must be built at least as far as the feed mill.Moreover, the roads in Mushan Ranch need to be specially reinforced, and the total cost is 2000 million yuan.The government subsidizes 500 million, and the remaining Wushan Town raises funds...

The symbolic family members of Wushan Town contributed a little, among which Zhang Cheng contributed 100 million, uncle Chen Moyao 70, brother-in-law 50... the eldest uncle, the second uncle, Lin Ling's two uncles, Zhang Cheng's aunt, They are all 5.There are also people who build houses in Wushan Town, and most of them have a little bit of trouble.300 million was collected here, and Chen Mo contributed the remaining 1200 million.

From Wushan Town to Mushan Ranch, no one else walked the 8 kilometers apart from people from the ranch.And there are still several kilometers of roads inside the ranch.In fact, Chen Mo didn't spend any more money...

The road was pruned years ago, slowly and leisurely.After the funds were available, the progress of road construction increased several times.

……

Mushan Ranch.

Han Sheep Breeding Farm, there are a thousand female Han Sheep here, all of which are artificially inseminated.

The Chinese New Year period happens to be the birth time of Han Sheep, and a total of 4231 lambs were born this time.

If more lambs are born, manual care is needed.

About ten days after the lambs are born, they can leave the small single room and go out to graze.

Hanyang's breeding farm is the best built, and the ewes have small single rooms separated by steel pipes.This is because there are many Han sheep, and it is easy to get them confused if they are not isolated.

A ewe will only bring her own young.If other children identify the wrong ewe, the ewe will not feed it.

During this period, the ewes give birth to their babies within a few days, and the feed given to the ewes can be said to be super good.

Crush the dried alfalfa and give some silage appropriately, along with concentrate feed.You must give more green hay at this time, and it is made of alfalfa. It is very palatable and the sheep like it the most.

Usually in the few days after giving birth, the feed must be mainly green hay, and then slowly increase the amount and rationally mix nutritious concentrated feed.You cannot give a large amount of concentrated feed to ewes after they give birth...

When I walked into the Han Sheep Breeding Farm, I heard the bleating sounds of the lambs one after another.

The earliest lamb is a month old and has already been driven into the pasture.The thick grass in the pasture is mostly composed of three or five lambs followed by a ewe.

The ewe grazed leisurely.The lamb doesn't really like eating grass yet, so it follows its mother and occasionally takes a few bites.

Chen Mo took a sightseeing car and took Zhang Weimin to visit the ranch: "4231 lambs were bred in this batch, including 2000 male lambs. These male lambs can be sold..."

"How much is 1 catty?"

"About 16 yuan." Chen Mo said: "Only castrated male sheep are sold, 1000 of them are sold."

Zhang Weimin nodded. He knew the price of live sheep.The goats they raise here basically cost more than 1 yuan per catty, live sheep.

At 16 yuan per pound, it’s really not expensive. "We haven't selected a cooperative village yet, so you can raise them first. We will buy the lambs after we have completed the preliminary preparations." Zhang Weimin said: "How many kilograms does each lamb sell?"

"Between thirty and forty pounds." Chen Mo said.

Zhang Weimin nodded: "Hanyang, can you give birth three times in two years?"

Chen Mo said 'hmm': "Absolutely."

"If you think about it this way, it is still cost-effective to raise ewes." Zhang Weimin looked at the sheep in the fence and smiled.

There are 4 lambs in a litter, and they are raised to 35 pounds for sale. The price of a lamb is 560 yuan. 4 pieces, 2240 yuan.Is it more cost-effective than raising mutton sheep?

"Raising ewes requires certain skills. Raising ewes requires a lot of investment. The market price of 1 ton of hay for these ewes is more than 2000 yuan," said Chen Mo.

"Hay, more than 2000 tons?"

"High-quality dry alfalfa." Chen Mo said.

"This alfalfa is almost as expensive as corn."

"No." Chen Mo shrugged.

"How many Han sheep are you going to raise... breeding sheep?" Zhang Weimin.

"At least 1." Chen Mo said: "We will consider the actual demand later. Our climate is not particularly suitable for raising cold sheep. The best ones to raise are Boer goats and black goats, especially black goats. It’s completely free-range and not easy to get sick.”

"What do you mean, we promote black goats in large quantities?" Zhang Weimin said.

"Black goats that are cross-bred with large and small ears are not easy to get sick. If you raise them individually, you can choose this cross-bred black goat. It does not require any skills and the risk of raising it is minimal." Chen Mo said: "The second is the Boer goat, which is the smaller part of the goat. Sheep are cheaper than black goats.”

"How much does a pound of black goat lamb cost?"

“这个的话起码要20元以上。”陈墨说：“黑山羊正常2年3胎、3年5胎，一胎1-3只。”

"Where's the Boer goat?"

“波尔山羊，正常2年3胎、3年5胎，一胎2-3只。小尾寒羊正常2年3胎、3年5胎，一胎2-4只。”陈墨说：“寒羊繁殖最快。黑山羊的话，繁殖要慢很多……”

This is why so few black goats are raised.

Black goats are said to have one to three in a litter. There is no selection of ewes. Most of them have one in a litter, and occasionally there are two.Three are rare.However, black goats are easier to raise and there is still a market for them.Moreover, the price of black goats in Sichuan is more expensive than that of white goats.

After seeing Xiao Weihan, Chen Mo took Zhang Weimin to see the Boer goats.

There are more than 1 Boer goats.

Boer goats are more numerous in the south.Of these more than 1, there are more than 4000 ewes.The rest are meat sheep, that is, castrated male sheep.

"Have you kept your sheep outside all this time?" Zhang Weimin said.

"I have been grazing in the pasture and occasionally come over to replenish some feed." Chen Mo said.The feed is mainly salt and various vitamins...

These grazing sheep are still small. When they grow up, they are rushed back to the sheep shed to start fattening.

"You've been outside all the time, won't you get sick?"

"It rarely rains this season. As long as it doesn't rain, it won't be a big problem." Chen Mo said: "We pay attention to the weather forecast. If there is heavy rain, we will drive the sheep back in advance."
