Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

"Ah~ Yes, I remember now!" Mu Qi said embarrassedly, "After I told you before, I asked my friends, but unfortunately, the yellow sheep was not found."

Lin Xia was a little disappointed, and then she heard Mu Qi continue, "But I heard there are two other kinds of mutton, they taste great, have no smell, and are fresh. Are you interested?"

"I'm interested!" Lin Xia said excitedly, "As long as it's delicious meat, I'm interested!"

"Haha~" Mu Qi stroked his goatee and said, "One is the Tibetan sheep, which has the three characteristics of tender meat, delicious taste, and no smell. It is a specialty meat food in the Tibetan area.

Another type is the Hengshan goat, a specialty of Hengshan County, Shanxi Province. The meat is tender, fat and lean, high in protein, low in fat, has no mutton smell, rich aroma and unique flavor.

At present, these are the only two types of sheep that I feel are the most suitable for eating. Which one would you like to raise?"

Actually, both are fine, as long as they taste good, but: "Then is there anything special to pay attention to in these two ways of raising sheep?"

Mu Qi: "It's the same way we raise sheep here, but because it doesn't produce wool, it's used for meat, and it takes 25 days to be ready for slaughter."

Lin Xia: "Then buy me one of each species. By the way, they are also bred artificially, right?"

Mu Qi: "Yes, just like our sheep, the gestation period is also 21 days. But because it can't produce wool, the price is cheaper than our sheep, only 3500G per head."

"Okay. When can we arrive?" Lin Xia asked anxiously.

"Haha~ I'll contact you when I get home today. Tomorrow is Ox Day, so it will be delivered the day after tomorrow! You can just buy it from me then."

"Okay!" Lin Xia was so happy that she continued, "Then Mu Qi, what about beef? Which kind of cow is delicious and can be raised? I want to raise this one too!"

Mu Qi thought for a while and said, "There are also two types. One is yellow cattle. Its meat is tender but not easy to fry. It replenishes qi and blood and is especially suitable for stewing, stewing and stir-frying. It is very delicious, but not suitable for making steak.

The other is Charolais beef, which is the top grade beef in France. It is delicious, fine-textured, elastic, and has moderate marbling. It is the best beef, rich in protein and high in fiber.

"I want both!" Lin Xia stared at Mu Qi with shining eyes.

Mu Qi: "Okay, I'll contact you again and tell you the details next time you go to buy a sheep."

"Thank you so much. By the way, can you contact the pigs? I want to raise pigs too."

Muchi: ……

"Lin Xia, are you able to handle raising so many animals at once? Cows and sheep are easy to handle because you already have them. They are easy to raise and you just need to feed them grass.

But pigs not only need special pig pens, they are also omnivorous animals and need special pig feed. It is not easy to raise them! Are you sure you can handle it? "

"Uh~" I thought about the fact that my pigpen hasn't been built yet, and, indeed, it seems that pigs eat a variety of foods, and pig feed needs to be processed. It's not enough to just feed grass. This needs further study.

"I won't raise pigs for now, but please help me learn about the suitable pig breeds here, as well as the feeding methods and food. I will definitely raise pigs in the future! As long as the conditions are right, I will definitely raise them, and it won't take long. Please!"

If we don’t raise pigs, we won’t be able to eat braised pork, twice-cooked pork, boiled pork slices, dumplings, wontons, bacon, sausages, pig’s trotters... so many delicious foods, what should we do?

Pigs must be raised!

"Okay, I'll learn about it!" Mu Qi said with a smile, "Yeah~ It looks like the dining table will be more diverse in the future!"

"Hehe~ When I raise it, I'll treat you to a feast!"

"I won't be polite!" Mu Qi said, and then he took Moo Moo No. 1 away.

After seeing Mu Qi off, Lin Xia immediately took care of the animals and then went to find Gotz.

"Gotz, can you build a pigpen?" Lin Xia asked as soon as she entered the door.

"Pigsty?" Gotz was weaving a super large bamboo sieve in his hands. The large bamboo sieve had a radius of about one meter and was also ordered by Lin Xia.

"You want to raise pigs?"

"Yes, I want to raise it! Can you build it?" Lin Xia asked hopefully.

"Yes!" Goetz said confidently, "As long as it is related to houses, there is nothing I can't do. I can even build a villa, let alone a small pigsty."

"Okay, I want to build it. How much materials do you think it will take?"

"The primary pig pen has 30 stalls, plus a gestation stall. It requires a total of 500 pieces of stone and 800 pieces of wood. G, it will be completed in 8 days."

"No problem, I have enough materials, don't worry!"

"Okay, I'll come over and help you build it tomorrow!"

"There are so many stalls in the primary pig pen. Does it occupy a lot of space? Where do you think it would be suitable to be built?"

"Don't worry, although there are many stalls in the pigpen, the floor space is not large. This will use special internal space techniques. It is not big on the outside, but the space inside is spacious. Look at the houses in the town, which one has a large floor space, but the interior is definitely spacious."

That’s right, this is a magical world with goddesses, kappas, and dwarfs. It cannot be viewed with common sense.

Moreover, the animal houses here are very clean, and the animals never have any bad smells, and Lin Xia has never seen any feces or anything like that!

It should be that the animal houses and ranches have special treatment methods and are directly connected to the ranch farmland. Otherwise, how could the crops harvested from some fields reach 2 stars? Lin Xia has not upgraded the farmland!

After Lin Xia settled the payment, she continued to go to the back mountain to check in.

In the past few days, Lin Xia harvested 2 rabbits and 4 pheasants from the traps one after another, and put them all in the refrigerator after processing.

Especially with the high-tech suit given by Huo An, it is not only very convenient to enter the mountains, but also we will not be bitten by mosquitoes.

It can prevent heatstroke and cool down, and the clothes have color-adjusting function. Just like a chameleon, they can blend into the mountain environment. The camouflage effect is amazing.

After collecting the prey, Lin Xia went to collect stones and wood, and also looked at the medicinal herbs he saw. The medicinal herbs in summer are really abundant in number and variety.

Because of the hot weather and fear of mosquitoes, rats and ants, Lin Xia did not dare to go into the dense forests or stay under the scorching sun for a long time. She just picked herbs that were easily available on the roadside.

Now, I have no worries at all, and I am grateful to Huo An again for his generous reward!

I hope that next time Huo An holds another sales meeting, Lin Xia will definitely be the first to help, haha!
