Happy Farm Ranch

Chapter 57
Listening to him explain the truth to the two dogs in a serious manner, my dad was also very happy, "It's alright, can they understand the reasoning with the dogs?"

"These two guys are smart, they can understand." After a short fight, there was no trouble at all, and Su Mu was in a good mood.

At the very least, he now has a better understanding of the abilities of Hei Hu and Da Hui, and he can trust them to take care of the house in the future.

"Don't tell me, Muzi, you two dogs are really powerful, where did you buy them?" There is no entertainment in the mountain village, and most men like to raise dogs to fight.When the village head saw these two good dogs fighting first-class, his eyes lit up, "I have time to breed that bitch of mine, and it must be a rare good dog if you train it well!"

A few boys went down and pulled the two dogs up to check. They were not seriously injured. They probably hurt their self-esteem.

"Hey, Muzi brought back all good things. The two dogs I want to come will be put on the mountain to see the orchard. After the puppies are born, I will keep two for me. Both of them are old and can't work for a few years. Work." Da Kui smiled, rubbed his hands and ordered two puppies from Su Mu first.

Old Hei, however, smoked a cigarette and said with a foolish smile: "That bitch in my family is not bad-looking, so I'll go get a breed when I have time!"

Others who didn't have a bitch at home yelled for help to keep a few younger ones; those who had a bitch made several marriages for Hei Hu and Da Hui within a short time.

"Don't worry, our Black Tiger and Big Hui are still young, and it won't be too late to find wives for them when they are sensible." Su Mu still has several dogs in his own space. It is not easy to want a good dog?When the time comes, go to the city to do errands and just find an excuse to bring it back.

The village chief pointed to the farm while smoking a cigarette, and said slowly: "A lot of adobes have been smashed out, and the northernmost stretch of the farm has been built according to your father's instructions to build vegetable greenhouses; everything that should be planted in the field is planted. Yes, land reclamation has to be done slowly, this is not something that can be done in a hurry.

It’s just that you have to hurry up and tinker with the Guodipo area. The day before yesterday we went there to build a house and a chicken coop according to the regulations you gave. We saw that the grass on the Guodipo is growing well!
Now standing on the slope and looking down, I can't see a little bit of yellow sand, but it's all green and dense with tall grass.It seems that the grass planted by the people in the city is worse than that in our poor valley. No matter how big the grass in our field is, it is still not as good as the crops. It's all over! "

These unintentional words woke up Su Mu suddenly.

It is good that the pastures in the space are growing gratifyingly, but if they cross the boundary and grow into the crop fields, it will become a disaster!

"The pot bottom slope needs to be cleaned up quickly. I have also looked carefully. The grass grows well and there are many grass seeds on the ground. Grasshoppers, grasshoppers, and all kinds of tits are everywhere. If there are too many grasshoppers over time, I am afraid that they will die. Good grass has to be scrapped, and it will even affect the farm on the hillside. Or raise some chickens first, the chickens can eat grass seeds and grasshoppers, and free-range chickens grow fast. The egg is also good, what do you think?"

Ever since Mr. Zhang and his wife came to Huatanao, they have been under the care of Su Mu's family for a long time.

Because he was getting old, there was nothing they could help with, so Mr. Zhang walked around and looked around when he had nothing to do.He felt that he would set up a chicken farm on the ranch first, and he and his wife could move there to help look after it, so he proposed it first.

Su Mu nodded in response, and now it is not a problem to go to the farm to order chickens.Moreover, no matter how large the chicken farm is, it is relatively easier to manage. At worst, it is a good idea to add some space water to the man-made lake on the pasture to ensure that the chickens will not get sick.

"Let's divide into three groups at the moment. Dad, you drive to the town in the afternoon, buy a big pot cover and put it on. There is a color TV pulled back in the car, and you can watch TV with the big pot cover;

I will go to a farm to talk about buying chickens, and if it goes well, I can have them deliver them in a few days;
Village Chief, you have finished your work of digging adobe, so this afternoon, you will take a few people to the pasture.Along the boundary between the pasture and the fields of the villagers here, dig a ditch and bury it with lime, so as not to affect our farmland due to too much pasture growth. "Su Mu knew in his heart that the propagation of space grass does not rely on grass seeds, they all rely on underground roots.

As long as the ground can be buried with lime, the grass in the space can be prevented from spreading into the field.

"Muzi, have you really bought a color TV? If I can install a big pot in the afternoon, can I go to your house to watch TV in the evening?" The second fool has been outside for a long time, and has seen relatively advanced things. , used it, so he paused for a while and said: "When will our village be able to connect to the Internet? I heard that the computer is much better than the TV, so I can do whatever I want it to do. It's amazing!"

"Internet connection, I guess it will have to wait." Su Mu also felt a little regretful.

On the way back, he went to the county seat to inquire. Not to mention Huatanao, even Huatan Town didn't have an internet connection.It may be because Huatan Town is too small and the people are relatively poor. Who would spend so much money to connect to the Internet?If I want to be able to access the Internet in the village, I am afraid I have to wait for two years.

"You can act whatever you want? Is it really that good?" The village chief also felt incredible, although his family has the only TV in the village, but it is an old antique from many years ago.

Just relying on the soil antenna made of pot grates on the roof, it is very good to receive one or two stations occasionally.And because it has been in disrepair for a long time, the people on the TV screen are usually upside down.

Cripple Liang saw the weather was good and heard that there was a dog fight, so he came over with a cane to watch the excitement.

I happened to hear them say that they can act whatever they want to perform, and thought they were going to set up a stage to sing a big show. They walked briskly on crutches and shouted loudly: "If you want to sing, sing the story of the red light, outwit the tiger Shan! When will the platform be built? Er Gouzi, why don't you tell me about such a great event?"

As he spoke, he had already grabbed the village chief's ears, and Liang Zizi was quite angry, "Hiding everything, being a village chief is so beautiful!"

"My father, what are you talking about!" The village head quickly rescued his ear from his father.

Although he is the head of a village, there are only so few people in Huatanao. Who among the villagers does not know that Liang Changgeng is not afraid of anything but the bad-tempered old man at home?So no one laughed at him, so Dakui hurriedly moved a stool from the room to let Lame Liang sit down to extinguish the fire.

"We're all talking about watching TV here, you didn't listen to everything." The village head hurriedly took the crutch from the old man's hand and held it for him.

Liang Zizi glared at him, "What's so good about a broken TV? It's better to set up a stage to sing a big show. By the way, Muzi, what do you want to do with the Guodipo land? It can't be left so deserted forever. , The grass is deep and watery, so it is easy to attract worms! If you raise some cattle and sheep to wade in the grass all day long, it will scare the worms away."

"Long worms are snakes, right?" Su Mu is still not very familiar with this colloquial language. After getting an affirmative answer, he smiled and said, "We were discussing about setting up a chicken farm just now. We will start to do it in the afternoon, and try to make sure that we can get rid of it in the next few days." The chicks are brought in and scattered in the pasture."

"It's not enough just to have chickens." Lame Liang waved his hand. He is a famous snake catcher in the village.In the past, when I had nothing to do, I went to the deep mountains to bring back a few big snakes, and the stewed snake soup would be fragrant throughout the village.Huatan depression is located in the deep mountains, there are not many people and the surrounding area is dense jungle, so there are many snakes.

Liang Laizi knew the habits of snakes very well, so he proposed: "First, catch a few big ducks and fat geese in the village, so that they can keep company with the little chickens; If the long worm comes to wrap around the chicken, even dare to peck a few bites, no matter how bad it is, it will call people.

When the chicks were young at the beginning, a few more people took care of them so that they would not run too far, and they were blasted into the chicken coop every night to spend the night, and they were not released until they were two months old.

By then, the chicken cubs have gotten used to digging into the nest as soon as it gets dark, so it will be much easier to manage.Have the people at the chicken farm made up their minds? "

Su Mu was thankful that these experienced elders often gave a lot of practical advice. Even though he usually had a lot of plans, he had to find experienced people to help him with specific tasks.

"Who will take care of it hasn't been decided yet. Mr. Zhang and his wife volunteered to work on the chicken farm. I think the place is big enough anyway, and we'll raise [-] chickens in the early stage. In this way, we need to add another seven or eight people to take care of it." Right?" He made a calculation in his mind, and felt that ten people should manage [-] chicks.

Cripple Liang said with a cheerful smile: "How can there be so many people! The old couple Zhang Sange, the old Chen Tou who herds the sheep, and the old Liu from the village are almost the same.

In the afternoon, let the children go up the mountain to collect firewood, and then they will circle around and build a simple fence wall, so that those chickens can't escape, and they don't need many people to wait on them.

Old Chen's sheep were thrown outside the fence to graze, which saved him from having to go back and forth all day to herd the sheep. "

"Okay, Uncle Liu and the old couple can notify now; I'll tell Uncle Chen in the evening." Su Mu readily accepted the candidate he recommended.

He thought, if it was impossible, he would spend money to buy old Chen's sheep.

Anyway, the ranch is so big, one is raised, and one group is released. By the way, the number of cattle and sheep is set for the farm. After the chicken farm is on the right track, it is time to engage in other breeding.

After lunch, the boy scouts were sent up the mountain to pick up branches; everyone else continued with their work; my father drove my mother and grandparents to the town to buy a large pot cover, and by the way, buy some other supplies for the family; Sumu Then he drove to Taohua County, where he needed to contact a reliable farm to negotiate the purchase of chicklings.

Taohua County is very prosperous, but most of it is driven by tourism development.

Su Mu looked around but couldn't find a suitable farm, so he had to find an Internet cafe and search online for reliable farms near Taohua County.

After some searching and screening, he finally identified two farms near Jinjin City with a good reputation.

Through telephone contact, Su Mu first got to know the price and delivery of the chicklings for the time being. Specifically, he still needs to make a trip to investigate and inspect before he can determine whether to introduce them.
