After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

Not just thinking, the most important thing is to actually put it into action.

Yes, it’s not like I never thought about raising pigs and sheep and selling them to make money, but I had no capital and couldn’t bear the risk. Once I raised them to death, I would lose all my money, and the money I spent to buy the babies would be lost;

Secondly, if you are afraid that it won’t sell or the price won’t rise, you can’t work hard for a year and end up with it in vain.

Why is it different now? Speaking from the bottom of my heart is still the confidence brought by having money in hand.

A piglet costs between 700 and 800 fen to one tael of silver. Since they can afford to raise it to death, without these few hundred fen, they won't be starving. Even if they can't sell it, it will be fine. They can give it to their families. Eat, replenish oil and water.

It would be even better if it can be sold. A pig can be sold for about four or five taels of silver. After deducting the money for buying piglets, the net profit is about three taels. If you raise two or three pigs, you can earn six taels a year just from raising pigs. To nine taels!

If we raise more, maybe a dozen...stop, stop, there will be too many and it will be too late to kill pigweed.

However, there are many people in their family, and it is still very easy to live with about five animals. If you raise five animals, you can make fifteen taels of silver a year!

Leave some of it to eat at home. Bacon, bacon, sausages, lard, etc. can replenish your body from time to time.

The more Aunt Wu thought about it, the more beautiful it became. Together with her family, they delayed for a while and headed to Shui Qing's house.

When she arrived, she saw many women from the village surrounding Shui Qing's pig pen!

Shui Qing was pointing at the piglets in the pigpen to confirm.

She quickly stepped forward, wiped the sweat from her forehead and asked hurriedly: "The water is clear, are there any piglets? I want to buy five or six piglets to take home and raise."

"Hey, sister Wu, you are too greedy! We can only think of two or three at most, but you have five or six, which is too much!" Aunt Li's little piglet calmed down, and she was calm and relaxed at the moment. Laughing and joking.

Aunt Wu had a good relationship with her and was not annoyed when she heard the joke. She breathed heavily and replied: "Well, I earned my wages in the medicine shop. I have a full stomach, made winter clothes, and have shoes. Now, isn't it? Are you thinking about improving the food for the whole family so that they can eat better? "

She worked in a medicine shop and had a good meal at noon. When she went home and ate black dough and food without oil and water, she could feel the huge difference!

If you want your family to eat well, then you have to be diligent?

Earn money diligently, raise livestock diligently! You have to live a good life by yourself.

"That end is enough to eat, but you don't have this end either, so you have to wait for the next batch." Aunt Zhang didn't want to throw cold water on it, but she had no choice but to know.

Aunt Wu was stunned, opened her mouth, and asked without giving up: "What? All is gone?"

She remembered that there were many piglets in Shuiqing. Before, she had thought that thanks to the large number of servants in her family, even during the busy farming season, she could easily carry several carts of pigweed back to the pigs in the morning and evening for the pigs to eat.

"I'm late? Have you all made a reservation?" She came here as soon as she heard the news. No, no, she came after discussing with her family for a while.

But the delay was only half an hour, so it’s gone?

Shui Qing confirmed: "Yes, no more. I promised sister-in-law Guifen before that her family would order three heads, as well as all the aunts and ladies present."

Aunt Li and others followed up and said, "It's not enough! I originally wanted to order three heads, but there aren't that many, but two heads are pretty good too."

"I heard that Guifen was raising pigs, so I came over immediately. Fortunately, I ran fast and separated two pigs!"

"I came late, and there is only one little piglet left. I will keep the old sow for now. If the sow has another baby, can I continue to buy it?"

Aunt Wu became anxious when she heard this, "You already have a piglet, so give it to the rest of us who don't have one."

Shui Qing opened her mouth to sell at the right time: "There are no piglets, but there are many lambs. Although mutton is not as oily and watery as pork, it is still meat, right?"

Moreover, the sheep can be herded in a group and driven to the hills, where they can eat as they please. When they are full, they can be driven back to the sheepfold. It is more trouble-free than raising pigs. When the farming season is busy, slaughtering one is fresh and delicious. "

Aunt Wu had eaten mutton from Shui Qing's house. It was neither fishy nor smelly. The skin was thin and the meat was thick. The oil and water were not comparable to those of pigs. However, the mutton was nourishing, the haggis soup was delicious, and the mutton spine was rich in flavor. She swallowed her saliva unconsciously as she thought about it.

As Shui Qing's number one loyal supporter, Aunt Zhang heard Shui Qing take the initiative to mention the goodness of sheep, and immediately raised her hands and shouted: "I want five!"

Anyway, she has nothing to do at home, and it is quite good to herd sheep.

Aunt Wu was stunned when she saw that someone had already made a reservation, and immediately shouted: "I want eight, no, ten!"

In an instant, all the lambs of Shui Qing's family were gone.

Shui Qing laughs, the herd mentality applies everywhere.

Originally, Aunt Wu was just here to buy piglets, and she might go home when the piglets were gone. But when others wanted to buy sheep, she also bought them, and she bought ten of them!

Later, when I didn't buy anything or bought less, I felt regretful, thinking that they were slow to react.

She looked at everyone present and said, "Don't worry, you won't become fat if you eat one bite. Start raising small amounts. Later, the pigs I have here will give birth to pigs, and the pigs you buy will give birth to pigs. The pigs in our village will have pigs in two or three years." The sheep have reached the point where they can’t finish eating and need to be sold!”

Pigs, sheep, etc. do not reproduce as fast as rabbits, but they cannot sustain large numbers. After several times, the snowball will become bigger, and it will get bigger and faster.

There are many livestock in the village, so her brush shop will not be short of wool!

The women who bought piglets happily went back to build pig pens made of adobe to raise pigs, while those who did not buy piglets went back to build sheep pens made of adobe.

The village now has a wall, and these big animals will smell bad if they are kept at home.

Plus, with so many families raising them together, and so many raising them all at once, the smell of feces will probably be overwhelming!

Only then did I understand why the old village chief and his family wanted to build a pigsty at the foot of the mountain, simply because they were afraid that the smell would reach other homes.

Then I thought that they could learn from it. Anyway, we have hills, and whether we are raising pigs or sheep, we cannot do without grass, so it is perfect.

Aunt Wu arrived late, but fortunately, she finally got ten lambs and the priority for the next batch of piglets. The women who were hesitant at home and finally made up their minds to buy piglets came to Shuiqing's house to take a look, let alone now. The piglets and lambs are gone, and the next batch has been booked!

Their eyes were blank, and they only hated themselves for being hesitant.

Then I thought that the reason for the hesitation was because of listening to the men in the family, and I suddenly felt regretful and thought that they should not have listened!

Look at how good Aunt Zhang's life is after her man died. She suddenly settled on two piglets. Isn't it because she can take charge of the family and doesn't need to waste time asking the opinions of the men in the family.

Did they miss the piglets and lambs? No, what I missed was living a good life later than others!
