Chapter 127 I don’t know what to eat
"There are one hundred and ninety in total. If you want them, I will move the rabbits over now." Xia Chan said.

"One hundred and ninety, that's seven hundred and sixty yuan. Then I'll go in and get the money, and you can bring all the rabbits here."

After that, Xia Chan and the captain moved all the rabbits to the guard room. The old man confirmed the number and saw that the rabbits were indeed plump and had little individual difference, so he handed all the money to Xia Chan and told Xia Chan He said that if there is any good stuff in the future, come and ask him. If he wants it, he will ask for it in large quantities.

After getting the money and getting on the tractor, Xia Chan quickly drove the tractor and left. Otherwise, she was afraid of being complained if she stayed here for a long time. The captain held the 795 yuan in his pocket, and his heart was boiling. He didn't expect that raising rabbits would actually be possible. You can make money, and still make so much.

If you buy two hundred, you will make nearly eight hundred yuan. If you buy two thousand, wouldn't you be able to make eight thousand yuan?

The captain's heart was on fire.

Back at the production team, everyone got off the tractor, and Xia Chan said to the team leader, "Uncle Captain, it's still a little dangerous to do something like this now. We're afraid that others will get jealous and complain about us, so we have to cooperate with public institutions. Let's not sell them for the time being and wait for the result from the state-owned restaurant. If they still want them, they will definitely send someone to the production team to tell us. We don't have many rabbits left. After we distribute them to everyone, we'll keep some for next year's seeds, and leave the rest to the state-owned restaurant! Even if they only want ten a day, our supply is not enough, so don't worry about not making money."

"Xiao Chan is right." The captain nodded.

Xia Chan continued, "When we go hunting in winter, we can stop distributing small prey like pheasants and rabbits among everyone. Instead, we can cooperate with the state-owned restaurant. I believe the state-owned restaurant will definitely take them!"

"You're right. What we raise in the village this year may not be enough to supply the needs. When the winter hunting team goes into the mountains to hunt, I will remind them not to eat pheasants and rabbits and to keep them all," said the captain.

When the winter hunting team goes into the mountains to hunt, they make fires and cook. In addition to the rations they bring, they also cook small prey. After all, everyone needs to eat meat to supplement their nutrition. Big prey are difficult to handle, but small prey are easy to handle.

Afterwards, the team leader went to the team headquarters and rang the gong for the meeting. Xia Chan did not go back, but waited for the meeting.

When attending a meeting, only one person from each family needs to go, while some families bring the entire family together.

Half an hour later, when almost everyone had arrived, the team leader stood up and held a meeting. The first thing he said was that rabbits would be distributed to everyone, one for each family. The second thing he talked about was the money earned from raising rabbits. This was extra income, which would not be divided according to everyone's work points, but according to the number of households.

Those who stand up to protest will be immediately disqualified from sharing the money.

Those people in a family of more than a dozen who were reluctant to split up were planning to stand up to protest the village's decision, but they didn't expect the team leader to stop them with just one word. The rabbits were raised by the village, so the decision-making power naturally lay with the village.

During the meeting, the team leader also emphasized to everyone not to make mistakes that would undermine the unity among the team members, otherwise the village would punish them severely.

The rabbits were divided first, and then each family got more than nine yuan. The team leader's family did not split up either, and the whole family shared the money in one account. The team leader did not say anything, and it was even harder for others to say anything. If they wanted more money, then they could split up the family. In this way, the small families that were split up could naturally get the money in the account. Many people sensed this and were secretly planning to split up the family!
Xia Chan and Xia Bin were from one household, Xia Qi was in another household, and Jin Pengfei and Jin Pengyuan were in one household, so Xia Chan received three rabbits and money from three accounts. Xia Chan didn't say no, as this was what they deserved.

Besides, she had paid a lot, so why couldn’t she have it back? The crowd dispersed, and Xia Chan returned with the rabbit and the money. The cowshed was also given a rabbit, so she didn’t send any to the cowshed. Instead, she put a bag of white radish outside the cowshed door. The rabbit meat stewed with radish can cover the grass smell on the rabbit, and it tastes delicious and nutritious.

Moreover, every household grows a lot of things like radishes and cabbages, especially this year, as they are afraid of having nothing to eat, so they grow even more. A bag of it is worth very little money.

When Xia Chan returned home, he gave the money to his brothers, who put the money in a drawer as living expenses for the family.

As for the rabbits, they were kept in cages at home and my brothers took them to the town to sell them so that their family would have no shortage of meat.

Ever since Xia Chan successfully used wooden basins to grow vegetables at home last year, many families have done the same this year. However, those who do this are those who have a good relationship with Xia Chan. As for those with whom Xia Chan has no close relationship, Xia Chan doesn't worry about it.

When the weather gets cold, people no longer use the big kitchen to cook at home. Instead, they use the stove connected to the kang to cook. Anyway, the kang is burned from morning to night at home, and there is also fire in the stove, so cooking is convenient.

Xia Qi cooked lunch first. Due to the heavy floods this year, the crops were washed away and there was no rice and wheat. So now the family is more frugal with meals, one-third rice and two-thirds coarse grains.

"Xiao Chan, what are you planning to eat for lunch? Fish, chicken, or rabbit?" Xia Qi poked her head out and asked Xia Chan who was slumped on the kang.

"Oh, it's so annoying. I don't know what to eat every day." Xia Chan sighed heavily. Other families can't afford meat, but they are tired of eating meat. These three kinds of meat can't be changed every day! "I want to eat goose stewed in an iron pot, I want to eat shrimp stewed in an iron pot..."

Thinking of the fresh and sweet mud shrimp, Xia Chan's eyes lit up. She could buy them at the "Crossing Mall". Although they were not cheap, she didn't want to eat them every day. It was okay to eat them once in a while, but she would have to wait until she went to the town to bring back mud shrimp or prawns.

"Then let's eat chicken stewed with mushrooms. I just soaked the mushrooms this morning. And this chicken is an old hen, not a pheasant." Pheasants are not as delicious as domestic chickens. After eating too much, Xia Chan doesn't want to eat them anymore.

Xia Chan looked over at Xia Qi curiously, "Where did you get the old hen? Who did you exchange it with? Will others think we are too extravagant?"

"This morning, when I was coming back from selling fish, I happened to meet an old man who was going into the city to sell old hens. He said that they didn't lay eggs anymore, but he couldn't bear to eat them at home, so he was selling them. I happened to see him, so I bought one." Xia Qi said.

There are only two old hens left at home, which are used for laying eggs, but I can't bear to eat them.

Xia Chan was overjoyed when he heard this, "Brother, you are so thoughtful, so kind! I am so lucky to have a brother like you."

Xia Qi raised her lips and smiled, then began to prepare the dishes, washing, cutting, and arranging them on plates, waiting to be cooked at the end.
