Yipin Village Girl: Pick up an emperor to farm

Chapter 302
"Who will raise chickens?" Lu Xuening asked.

"..." A few people looked at me and I looked at you, without making a sound or shaking their heads.Well, everyone has more or less raised chickens, but when it comes to whether they can raise them or not, how can I say this? If they know how to raise chickens, they are usually fed by the women in the family. Sometimes they will help, say they can’t raise them, In fact, raising chickens is the same. If someone wants a chick, they just need to feed it with water. Then when it’s time to lay eggs, they just go into the nest to pick up an egg on time. How can there be any chance?It is not considered a technical job to kill it after raising it for a year or so.

"No?" Lu Xuening was a little disappointed.She turned her head to look at Feng Xingyun.Could it be that there is no senior agricultural expert here?She needs to work, but she also needs to be skilled, otherwise she is also a half-layman!I've only been in contact with my cousin for half a year, and it's okay to tell her verbally, but if you really want to do it, how can she be an expert!

Feng Xingyun frowned slightly, Ah Ning is not satisfied with these people?In other words, there are many farmers around Kyoto, and there should be quite a few who can raise chickens. "If it doesn't work, I'll ask someone to find it for you."

"My lord, we...we know how to raise chickens." When those people heard that they were about to be replaced, they said in a hurry, fearing that they would lose their good jobs, which were rare in a thousand years.

They didn't know that the man standing in front of them was the emperor. They just knew that a high-ranking official in the capital wanted to farm the land. He said he wanted a few good farmers. many.They came here, they didn't know much, and they didn't know the identities of the other parties. If they knew that they were meeting His Majesty the Emperor of Xifeng today, they would probably be so scared that they couldn't stand up straight, and they wouldn't be able to speak quickly. up.It was only when I came here that I found out that the employer was a young girl, she spoke very straightforwardly and politely, she should be easy to get along with, this job should not be difficult to do, and there is a lot of money, who wants to lose.

"Why didn't you guys say it earlier?" Lu Xuening asked puzzled.

"Small ones, small ones have raised chickens before, but it's just that several people in the family take turns to feed them, and whoever finds time will raise chickens. It's not fixed, but it can't be said that they haven't raised chickens before." A sharp-tongued person replied.For this generous salary, he opened his mouth to explain.

"Well, that's considered good at raising. Let me ask you, how many chickens have you raised the most?"

"Well... let me think about it." The man said, then lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Isn't it the most!? Last year was the most time my family raised a total of ten chickens, but only one was killed by a weasel. Only, nine by the end of the year."

He answered honestly, counting it, raising ten chickens is considered a good family situation.That's why he said it first, he thought ten should be a lot.

Only ten, Lu Xuening asked the others. "what about you?"

"My family has raised six."

"There are two in my family. My wife specially raised them to lay eggs to make up for her body when she was pregnant."

In fact, not all families know how to raise chickens. Although one or two chickens can’t eat much, they can be fed with wild vegetables and dregs, but sometimes when the family can’t catch up, there is not enough food for everyone. Also thought about raising chickens.

Moreover, the egg essences that were placed were very expensive. Except for special circumstances at home, they were generally reluctant to eat them by themselves, and they were all sent to Jishang to be exchanged for copper to subsidize the family.

Lu Xuening was a little disappointed when she heard that their reports were getting less and less, but after thinking about it, it is better to have been raised than not to have been raised.Or just let it go.Let's experiment slowly!

"Okay then, you stay here."

Feng Xingyun waved his hand, motioned them to go down, and then said to Lu Xuening: "Ah Ning, I will leave it to you to take full responsibility here, if there is anything that needs to be taken care of, the police will tell me that it doesn't matter whether you want someone or money. .”

"Okay, that's right, how are the seeds and fruit saplings I asked you to find? I also asked someone to prepare some such long logs. I will make piles and circle them with wire to surround the orchard. "Lu Xuening said, I don't know if the fruit here will be stolen when it grows, probably not, after all, it is a royal property, and ordinary people may not have the guts, but I still need to surround it when I think of raising chickens or something inside. .

She thought about high-density centralized breeding, which would be easy to manage, but she thought that the disease prevention in this era is not too advanced, and if it is too concentrated, it will be broken in case of a large-scale outbreak. , and the body of the chicken can be exercised, and the disease outbreak should be much less.Moreover, chickens in the mountains can eat grass and insects by themselves, and can save a lot of food in feeding.Chicken manure can also directly fertilize the land, a virtuous circle, with many benefits. The only disadvantage is that management and final cage collection can be a little troublesome.But the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, so she decided to do it this way, but it still needs someone to manage it well, so that it doesn't harm her food.

She stretched out her hand and gestured, the height was about one person's height, "Well, about one and a half to two meters is enough, but don't worry too much."

"It should be almost there. You need to see what else you need to write down. Don't wait for it to be missed. By the way, I will call Wen Jun to help you tomorrow. It is the one that was brought back to the palace last time. I think he is a good farmer. I made an exception and brought him." Feng Xingyun said.

"Oh, so you have already planned to ask me to come back and work as a coolie for you!" Only now did Lu Xuening understand that Feng Xingyun had a conspiracy long ago.

"Yeah, I've discovered that you are a treasure a long time ago, and I'm still blaming myself for not discovering it early enough! I wasted a great time and beautiful scenery." Feng Xingyun admitted frankly, with a pun in his words.

"You are the only one who can calculate!"

"Okay, drink some tea, take a rest, I'll drive you around the mountain, and then we'll go back. Don't miss the lantern festival at night." Feng Xingyun said.

"Yes." Lu Xuening was still thinking about the lantern festival at night.

So they didn't stay in the palace any longer, they got up and left after drinking a cup of tea.Before leaving, Lu Xuening still didn't forget to look back at the magnificent manor, hehe!It will be hers soon, so she needs to plan well and let the farm start to benefit early. The orchard is slow-growing, and it will take at least four or five years. The breeding is not bad. If it is done well, the cost should be recovered in half a year, and the management is proper. If so, the profit should be good.

As for vegetables, she plans to take advantage of the cold weather and when there are not many vegetables on the market to eat, she will set up a greenhouse and produce some off-season vegetables, which should be able to buy a good price.The greenhouse temporarily needs to be replaced by bamboo supports and white thin oil-permeable paper.

"Yun, you gave me such a big gift, and I will give you a big return soon! Just wait and see!" She said proudly.

"Oh!? What return gift? Can you reveal it in advance, so that I can be happy sooner!" Feng Xingyun looked forward to her words, because she always had some weird ideas, and the return gift she said would definitely be a big surprise!

"Secret!" Lu Xuening said triumphantly. Now that she said it, there would be no sense of mystery. What kind of surprise would that be?
