  Chapter 182 The Curiosity of the Red-haired Girl

  Qin Lang started sending chickens to the countryside.

  There are many discounts. Eggs, duck eggs, and goose eggs can be exchanged for small poultry seedlings as long as they are not bad. Eggs can be exchanged for chickens, ducks, and gooses.

   And it is not limited to exchanging eggs for seedlings, locust eggs, river mussels, snails, fish, shrimps, crabs, and even insect maggots can be used to exchange chickens and duck seedlings.

  In addition to changing, continue to buy eggs.

  Direct delivery to the countryside. Compared with the initial reservation, now the seedlings are directly brought to the entrance of the village, and they are spot on the spot.

  Looking at these fluffy cubs chirping in the cage, the whole village was very curious.

   "It's a good deal to exchange ten eggs for a chicken." A man with missing teeth was very energetic.

And his mother-in-law, a woman wrapped in coarse cloth, said, "It's more cost-effective to find some bug eggs, touch some fish, shrimp, clam and snails to exchange, chickens can be exchanged for money, and our family can't raise so many chickens." .”

  The villagers are simple, but sometimes they are also very shrewd. They count their fingers there, how to be more cost-effective, but no matter how they calculate, looking at these spirited chickens and ducks, they are very heart-warming.

  I need eggs and old hens for hatching, but now I can use some worthless river mussels, fish, shrimps and even worms to exchange these fresh seedlings, which is really a good deal.

   "Everyone thinks about it, hurry up and change it. First come, first served. After the change, you have to wait until tomorrow or even someday. Seedlings are in high demand now, and the quantity is limited."

The farmers of the Qin family were shouting loudly. Although these people were the servants of the Qin family, some of them were still slaves, but in order to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of these people, Qin Lang directly offered a commission. As long as the more you sell, The more commissions they get, so they are also very proactive now. They came to the countryside early in the morning with Miaozi on their backs, thinking of making two more trips.

   Some villagers were still calculating there, but some smart ones had already run to their homes, and some even ran directly to the fields or even the river canals.

   In less than an hour, the industrious Zhang Dungchui brought his family with a lot of mussels and snails. He was the quickest and harvested the most.

  His daughter-in-law He Hua brought all the eggs from the family.

  After some calculations, in the end Dung Chui's family successfully exchanged for ten chicks, ten ducklings, and another sixty-four coins.

   "It's ready, isn't it?" Ajaan asked the buddy.

  Dung Chui's family looked at the things they got, and they couldn't stop laughing from ear to ear. Although they also exchanged a basket of eggs, compared to him, he felt that it was really a big profit.

   "Yes, yes."

  Dung Chui's wife asked when Ajaan would come again.

   "As long as there are seedlings, I will come, and then I will accept things at this price in exchange for seedlings."

   "Then the fish, shrimp, clam and snail are still used?"

   "Yes, if I didn't come, you can dry these, and you will receive them at that time."

  ·······

  The seedlings brought by Ajaan were rushed by the villagers, and many slow-moving ones failed to be replaced, which even caused quarrels. Fortunately, Ajaan promised repeatedly that he would come again.

By the time Ajaan returned with a full load, the villagers who had been transferred to Miaozi had gone back happily to mark and feed the chickens and ducklings, while the others went up and down the river to find bugs, touch fish, shrimps, clams and snails, saying that they would change them next time. point.

  For the people of this era, raising some chickens and ducks to lay eggs is a rare sideline income, which is to earn cash.

   It is of course cost-effective to replace worthless things with chickens that can lay eggs.

  In Sanyuan Qinjiazhuang, Zhuangtou Old Wang is now smiling from ear to ear all day long. He used to look away when he saw the greenhouse, thinking it was a waste of firewood, and now he treats this greenhouse as a treasure.

  Not only did they send people to watch the greenhouse day and night, but they also got up several times every night to check the fire, check the temperature in the greenhouse, and change the sides of the eggs very diligently.

   Not only that, these days, he has personally led people to renovate several greenhouses. Now everyone in the village is busy hatching eggs day and night, and even temporarily hired many people from surrounding villages to help.

  The employed people don’t want money or food, they only ask for chicken seedlings and ducklings to pay for their wages.

The red-haired girl next door had come over immediately to take away her seedlings. Except for the first batch of eggs, she later relied on her intuition and thought that Qin Lang could accomplish this, so she sent Zhuang Ding to collect them. Many eggs came over, and now she has a lot of receipts, and she comes to collect seedlings every day.

  Seeing the chirping seedlings everywhere in Zhuangzi, Hong Fu Nu was also amazed, never thought that Qin Lang really had such ability.

  In fact, she has thought of many ways to find out the secret of the Qin family's hatching chickens, and there is indeed no hen in Zhuangzi.

  Obviously, the key to the Qin family hatching chickens is the houses that were heavily guarded by Lao Wang, and it seems that the houses have been remodeled, with a new chimney, and it seems that they are still lighting fires day and night.

  The secret is in it, but Lao Wang guards it tightly, and Hong Fu Nu can't find out.

   "Miss, our farm has already received more than 3,000 chickens, 2,000 ducks, and thousands of geese, and we can't keep them anymore."

   Zhuangtou Lao Li came to complain helplessly.

   "Ma'am, why don't we sell some too?"

   Hong Funu looked at the chickens and ducks that were all over the yard. Although they were all small seedlings, the number of them was so large that it made people's brains hurt, not to mention **** everywhere, causing the smell to permeate.

"I don't think the Qin Family Zhuangzi has sold all these seedlings." Hong Fu said, she has been observing the Qin Family Zhuangzi secretly. Since the Qin Family Zhuangzi can be raised, it is obviously worth raising, following in the footsteps of the Qin Family Zhuangzi There is always something wrong.

  For example, this time she collected so many chickens and sent them to Qin's Zhuangzi, so now she has more than 6,000 seedlings?

   "I heard that most of the chickens sold by Qinjiazhuangzi are hen chicks, and most of the male chickens are kept. What do you think they raise so many little roosters and ducklings? They can't lay eggs?"

The more critical problem is that it is quite a lot to raise dozens of chickens in the village, but now it is difficult to maintain thousands of chickens at a time. There is no way for so many chickens to be free-range, and they must be fed. Once this feed is fed, the cost will increase greatly.

   Not to mention, chicken and duck prince, it will obviously lead to stampede and other situations.

  Although the Qin family told them when they took the seedlings, these chicken and duck seedlings had to stay in the shed when they slept at night, and they had to light a fire in the shed to keep warm, otherwise they would freeze to death easily.

  In this way, it is indeed more costly and troublesome than the original free-range breeding to consume feed and build a shed to burn fire.

   "How did the Qin family do it? I think they have more chickens and ducks than us!"

"Miss, I went to ask. They are setting up a shed outside the village. At the foot of the mountain, by the river beach, they are enclosing a large piece of land on those wastelands, and then building a shed inside. It is not easy to enclose a large area for chickens and ducks. If you get sick from being trampled on, you can build a shed to avoid the rain and keep warm at night.”

   "If you circle it like that, you have to feed it." Hong Fu asked.

"Hey, they seem to be fed the same feed. They said they prepared it themselves. I asked them for some, but the feed was powdered and then molded. I can't tell what it is, but it smells like it should be made of rice husks and wheat husks. The bran, and some soybean meal, seem to smell fishy, ​​and seem to have fish bone meal, and seem to have grass leaves, etc., very mixed."

   "Do you still have this kind of feed, let me have a look."

Lao Li hurriedly fetched the feed, and Hong Fu Nu poured it out and studied it for a long time, and she also thought that what Lao Li said was right, the feed used in this feed was very complex, and after grinding, it was impossible to tell what the original material was. There is a strong fishy smell, and obvious chaff, grass powder, etc. can be seen.

   Clapped her hands, Hong Fu said, "This thing reminds me of the seasoning packets sold in Qin Sanlang's workshop before. It smells like this, but it's not so fishy."

   Obviously, the Qin family raises chickens and ducks, which is a brand new farming model, not the traditional small-scale free-range farming, so they set up a shed to enclose the land and prepare feed.

   "Does the Qin family sell this feed?" Hong Funu asked.

   "It's not expensive to sell, but if we also use this feed to raise it, it's not a small number to eat every day."

Zhang Chuchen thought for a while, "Well, let's follow the example of the Qin family, first find a place outside the village and build seven or eight sheds for him, enclose a few plots of land, and raise a hundred for each plot, I think These seedlings are easy to die if they are raised too closely, and the remaining seedlings, like Zhang's, are sold."

Zhang Chuchen's request is that the seedlings are only exchanged for eggs, or they can be sold directly for money, or for grain, and the price must be higher than that of the Qin family. What core secrets, they just need to be a second-hand dealer, collect eggs from the people, and then get them to Qin Lang's for seedlings, and then use the seedlings to increase the price to exchange eggs or sell money, once in and out, it can be guaranteed Earn a lot.

   "Miss, can't we do this?" Lao Li hesitated.

   "What's the matter, isn't the Qin family open-minded." Hong Funu didn't have that much fear.

  In Chang'an City, Pingkangfang Yiguo Gongfu.

The old Wangtou of Sanyuan Zhuangzi came here after receiving the order from the mansion. When he arrived, he found that not only he was summoned, but also the Zhuangtou at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, as well as the Zhuangtou from the west of Beijing, and even those from Shayuan, Weinan, and Shangluo. The heads of the Qin family manor in several places have come.

  In addition to the heads of these manors, many workshop owners and shopkeepers of the Qin family's workshops also came.

After we met and communicated, Old Wang found out that now the Qin family is not the only manor incubating chicken and duck seedlings. The Qin family has now established dozens of hatching gardens in Guanzhong, Shanguo outside the pass, and Shangluo and other places. , has more than one hundred greenhouses, incubating seedlings day and night.

  In addition to this, many new feed processing workshops have been built, and the fish, shrimp, insect eggs, clam snails, etc. mixed with rice husk, soybean meal, and grass, etc. collected from various places are being processed into chicken feed.

  The main purpose of calling them here is to put another burden on them, let them further expand the scale of some greenhouses, increase hatching capacity, and increase feed production.

  In addition, each manor and workshop will also build several chicken and duck farms.

  Old Wang was secretly startled, isn't this a bit too violent? Will it be too big?
