Xanadu space

Chapter 78

() I have to say that among all the duck houses and cowsheds, the pigsty is undoubtedly the smallest.That's because Jin Chrysanthemum was worried that the pigs would eat too much food, and that it would not be worthwhile to buy food for them if there were too many pigs.

But Zhang Xiang was infested with wild boars in the back mountain, and Bean Sprouts dragged back a wild boar every now and then, so it didn't matter whether the family kept the pig or not.But her mother didn't want to, "This village doesn't raise pigs, it's a pity to throw away the leftover hogwash!"

"It's getting cold now. Cows and chickens are not easy to raise in winter, but this pig is fine. If you have nothing to do, go to the pig shop in the town and buy me seven or eight piglets. It's best to ask for a male weighing five or sixty catties. Pigs come so fast with big bones!"

Jin Juhua looked at Zhang Xiang in a panic all day long, and just asked him to buy piglets, so that in the second half of next year, the pigs will grow old and fat.

"Hmm..." Zhang Xiang agreed with his mouth, but he was muttering in his heart. To be honest, he really didn't understand buying piglets, but according to what his mother said, boars are big, so there is probably no problem.

The pig was walking in the town, and Zhang Xiang staggered on the road in a noodle car. The driver was also from Zhangjiadian, and there were only three or four people in this car, and each person cost a few yuan.

"This road is getting more and more difficult to walk, you have to drive slowly..."

"Didn't you hear that the road was going to be built? Why didn't you see any movement?"

"Isn't it all about money? Isn't there no money at all?"

"The boss who collects walnuts has already said that he has never seen such a bad road as Zhangjiadian, which made him afraid to take a car!"

The road from Zhangjiadian to the town is less than twenty miles long and winding.The key point is that there are several mountains blocking the road. The road is next to the mountain and cut a path of less than four or five meters. It is covered with a layer of mud and sand. If it does not rain, you can walk for a while without a car going to the town.

Zhang Xiang didn't speak, but he was thinking in his heart. It cost a lot of money to pave the Ershili road, and in some places, he had to cut mountains. If there is no one with hundreds of thousands of dollars to repair it, I'm afraid it's empty talk.

"Building roads" Zhang Xiang smiled. It seems that he is still immature at the moment. He can only see how the fish harvest in the lake is. If it is good, he has enough money in his hands. This is a good idea to benefit future generations and benefit the present!

The villagers in the car complained that the road was not easy to walk, while talking about the harvest in the field, seeing that Zhang Xiang didn't speak there.An older villager smiled and said:

"You are the eldest son of the Hongbing family, where are you going?"

Some Zhang from the same village couldn’t remember his name, and he looked familiar. He smiled and told about his going to buy piglets, and took the opportunity to find out where the pig shop is!

"The pig store is easy to find at the east gate of Guandian. There are some big white characters on the wall!" Someone in the car said with a smile. Guandian Town is such a big area that everyone is familiar with it.

The car soon arrived at Guanmiao Town, and stopped at the intersection to solicit customers.But the east gate building has to get off the car and pass through. The entire street of Guanmiao Town is about half a mile long, and the roadside is full of villagers selling some of their own agricultural products.

There are also several pork cases, pig heart lungs, pig intestines and other offal are hung on the nails in front of the cases.The white pig suet is hung on a shelf on the chopping board. Occasionally, villagers come to ask about it, pointing to the pork to offer a catty or two.

There are also fish sellers who put some crucian carp in a few big red foot basins, and a lot of three or four catties of domestic fish, which are piled there, and there is a wooden board next to it that reads "Ten fast money for one piece, no bargaining" !"

When the villagers go to the market, they gather around the stalls that sell clothes and buy department stores.Most of them were acquainted women from seven aunts and eight aunts. When someone put clothes on, the people next to them would nod or shake their heads. The boss immediately took out other clothes and persuaded customers to try them on.

There are also some stores that buy electrical appliances and medicines, most of which are about seven or eight meters away from the center of the main street, but they are empty, after all, those things are less used and less bought.

Occasionally, one or two young men and women dressed in fashion appear on the street, and some people will hear whispers, "Which girl and boy are they, they work in the county!" In the past two years, more people have gone out to work, and when they come back, most of them It is also very bright, but it also arouses the envy of many people!

Zhang Xiang's clothes are ordinary and not very particular, but he has a deep and wise temperament, confident and wise eyes, like bright stars, making people unforgettable at first sight.

Many girls passing by in a hurry on the street, many slowed down, even if they missed the figure, they couldn't help but sneak a few glances back.Zhang Xiang couldn't help guessing that the clothes were buttoned wrong, or... He couldn't help but glanced down, but found that there was nothing unusual!

"Pigs!" Two big white characters taller than a person were painted on the blue brick and tile house, and they were really conspicuous. Zhang thought and found it.

It is said that the pig house is actually three large circles surrounded by wood, and dozens of piglets of different sizes are placed inside, one column is long, round black piglets, and the other column is A piggy with a long white shelf.

There is a large shed on one side of the pig row, and several people are sitting in it.It looks like the boss. There are a few cows tied to the big rocks in the open space of the pig shop. It seems that they are also here to lead and sell. <The grass is up in the middle of the day, but you can buy some and put them back by the lake.

He didn't speak but just observed how others came to buy the piglets. There were a few people standing on both sides of the pigpen, commenting on the piglets inside from time to time.

"Look at that big white pig, Run Huan will definitely eat it!"

"The black pork is delicious, but it also grows slowly and has a lot of fat. The dealer is not willing to pay a high price when selling it!" <Maybe it will be cheaper! "

"The next year's pork tastes better, and besides, it grows fat and thick!"

When Zhang Xiang heard these words, he understood in his heart that the two kinds of white pigs grow fast, and the dark meat grows slowly and has a lot of fat.Catching piglets by oneself is just for the family to eat and save for next year’s restaurant, so of course it’s better to catch black piglets.

Now that the black piglets were identified, Zhang Xiang only focused on the dozen or so black piglets.The more I look at those black piglets, they are very funny, they are all round, with big ears and long noses, humming and chirping, they look silly and sensual, ha ha!

"My fellow wants black piglets. I am a local native pig. The whole village can smell the smell of stewed pork. If you buy it this year, you will come to me next year!"

The boss who sold the black piglets was smoking a dry pipe. He looked over 60 years old. His body was thin and black with the smell of cigarettes, and his teeth were black and yellow from the smoke.

"How many catties are these black pigs? How can I sell them at the boar price?" Zhang Xiang smiled when he heard that it was said to be three or eight dollars just now, which is probably the price.

"Four yuan a catty is the cheapest for me. This pig is forty to fifty catties!" The boss's cigarette pipe smelled delicious, but Zhang Xiang frowned. The smoke was too heavy, almost like burning a fire.

"Four yuan? Isn't it three yuan and eight? Can it be cheaper if I buy more?" Zhang Xiang looked at the little black piglet, looking at the pigs in other pens, but there was no black piglet except here.

"It costs [-] yuan to buy a few more pigs. My cost is too high!" The boss complained there, and Zhang wanted to see that there were no black pigs for sale in other places, so he agreed.

Now that the price was negotiated, Zhang Xiang chose ten pigs that looked bigger and fatter. His idea was very simple, the piglets in the same litter would definitely eat a little when they grow up!

Seeing that more than a dozen pigs were put into a pen alone, weighing 520 catties in total, Zhang Xiang paid the money and called Li Jun, asking him to come and drag the piglets for him later.

Being bored while waiting for the car, Zhang wanted to sit in the shed and watch those people sell cattle.

There is a pair of big buffaloes in the field. The big horns are as big as his shoulders, and the small one is only as high as his waist. very special!

There are also two small buffaloes as tall as a man and a half. Their noses are not turned around, but a bridle is circled on the two small horns. Looking at many people, some people say, "The thread water is not good! The big cows are not six teeth. !"

Zhang wanted to laugh. What this man said were all rural sayings. Fortunately, his father had raised cattle before, and he would let him go after school. These words would not trouble him.
