Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

It's a good thing to have expectations, but at this stage, probably only Chen Xu, a time traveler, knows that good days are still a long way off, at least not in the next few decades. Even when the reform and opening up came, there was still chaos for a while.

It would take at least the 1980s for the situation to improve completely, but it is only 1961 now.

Not long after Chen Xu and his companion left Zhoujia Village, several ox carts entered Zhoujia Village. There seemed to be a lot of things on the ox carts. Chen Xu was very familiar with the man who jumped off the cart. It was Lao Zhou.

"Uncle, nothing happened recently, right?"

Old Zhou asked the village chief with a grin on his face. The village chief was a little helpless. To be honest, it was he who helped Old Zhou convince the villagers about this matter. Although he was a little unsure, it was his nephew's business after all.

"What could it be? Didn't you say you weren't afraid of being discovered?"

"We are not afraid, and we have not violated any policy, but we should keep a low profile on raising pigs in this disaster year."

This is the year with the worst famine, and even the grain rations in the city have been reduced again and again. If the fact that they use bran to feed pigs were to be publicized, it would definitely attract attention.

"That won't happen. We are usually very careful. But then again, the buyer who came here occasionally today probably discovered something."

The village chief was a little worried. He naturally knew that it would not sound good if this matter were made public. If people in the surrounding area knew that they used bran to raise pigs, they would probably be criticized to death in Zhoujia Village.

"Purchasing agent? Are there any purchasing agents who dare to go to the countryside in this year?"

Old Zhou had a puzzled look on his face. He also knew that buyers seldom went to the countryside nowadays. After all, there was really nothing to purchase, and it was quite dangerous. Besides, their Zhoujia Village was quite remote, dozens of miles away from the old city.

"He is the only one here, and he just came here this year. He has only been to our village a few times."

When the village chief described Chen Xu's appearance, Lao Zhou was stunned. Isn't this the little brother who didn't make him earn a penny and even lost a lot of money?

He had dealt with Chen Xu many times and knew what Chen Xu looked like, but he did not expect that Chen Xu would come to his family for purchasing.

"Will something happen?"

The village chief looked at his nephew a little nervously, as if he was thinking about something, and thought something had happened.

"It's okay, uncle. I know the man you mentioned, but I didn't expect that he would purchase from our area."

"That's good."

The village chief doesn’t care whether you know him or not, as long as nothing happens.

Knowing that Chen Xu had purchased two piglets here, Old Zhou chuckled. In his opinion, Chen Xu would probably take them back to eat, and Chen Xu probably wouldn't even be able to put them in his mouth.

I don’t know which factory leader is so lucky to have such a good meal, but Old Zhou also likes roast suckling pig.

Stayed in Chenjia Village for one night.

The next morning, Chen Xu rode his bike back to Sijiu City. Lin Chan stood at the entrance of the village and waited until Chen Xu disappeared in the distance.

Chen Xu turned his head and looked at the little girl who was still standing at the entrance of the village. He felt inexplicably impatient. It was almost time. It was already June, and there was only half a year left at most.

He found a deserted place and threw all the things into the space. Naturally, he raised the two piglets himself.

Thus, the mother sika deer and her baby chicks and the group of chicks had two more companions.

Chen Xu was probably the first person who dared to raise animals together. After all, he had space and didn't have to worry about his animals getting sick. Except for the snake, of course.

Even if he could use space to detoxify, he didn't want to worry from time to time whether the small animals he raised would be bitten by snakes.

He kept this poisonous snake purely out of interest. After all, snakes couldn't eat much. So Chen Xu planned to start raising mice. After all, these were good food, and most carnivorous animals ate mice.

And the mice raised in his space definitely don’t have those bacteria.

Of course, compared to mice, he would rather raise bamboo rats. Unfortunately, he had never seen bamboo rats in Sijiu City, and there were no large tracts of bamboo forests here, so he could not find any trace of bamboo rats at all.

Bamboo rat meat is sweet and fragrant, and it can replenish qi, remove dampness and detoxify. The meat has no fishy smell and is delicate and delicious.

Bamboo rat meat, like rabbit meat, is low in fat, cholesterol, and high in protein. To put it bluntly, eating this thing alone can make you as thin as a lightning bolt.

Because bamboo rat meat is rich in nutrients, there is a saying "pigeons in the sky and bamboo shoots on the ground" to praise the deliciousness and nutritional value of bamboo rats.

Unfortunately, some things are really hard to get these days. Many good local things are almost unknown outside the local area once they leave the local area. I guess most people in Sijiu City don’t even know what a bamboo rat is.

Now the poultry he raises are all vegetarians, and this snake is the only exception. But in the future, when there is more room for development, he may also raise carnivorous creatures, and he can make preparations early.

Of course, it’s not wrong to eat fish, but the fat content in fish is not that high.

Who doesn't have the idea of ​​raising a big cat? Chen Xu is no exception, and he has the conditions to do so.

But these are all matters for the future. What Chen Xu can do now is to plan ahead.

It is always better to prepare in advance than to rush when the time comes. He has plenty of time now anyway, so many things can be done in advance.

There are already quite a few fish in the space, but now is not the time to sell them. Even if we sell them to a steel mill, we have to wait until the end of the year.

Compared to those, Chen Xu is now picking out some food in the space to take back for his mission.

Of course, the leader’s special meal cannot be missed, and those old hens that don’t lay eggs are naturally prepared for the leader.

There were still a lot of game stored in the space over the past six months, and even some dried goods, but Chen Xu planned to eat these himself. He had to feed his leaders, but he couldn't miss out.

Otherwise, what is the point of him running around like this?

I guess you can't expect to be able to eat meat freely in the short term by relying on space, but you can eat fish freely.

While riding his bike, Chen Xu checked the development in the space and felt quite satisfied. This was his foundation and there must be no problem.

Chen Xu did not plan to take out his cornmeal, which was obviously problematic at first glance. Instead, he chose corn kernels, about fifty kilograms, which would cost at least one hundred and fifty yuan according to the current black market price.

Add some old hens and other things, and it was already one of the largest amounts he usually took out.

There’s no other way. Didn’t the leader ask him to show his abilities?

I think these things are enough to get the job done.

As for the money bills, he naturally accepted them with a smile. As for the bills, he filled them out entirely by himself. There was nothing he could do about it, since Linjia Village and Chenjia Village were his own people.

Chen Xu can just use the official seal to stamp it himself. As for what he writes on it, it is up to him to decide.

Supplies were also purchased in excess, and he earned one or two hundred yuan with tears in his eyes. This is his life now.

Chen Xu really has no shortage of money, he just can't show it to the public.

The richest owner of the courtyard had long since changed hands, but other people didn't know about it.

Now everyone in Siheyuan thinks that Xu Damao is rich, but if he hadn't recently swindled Yi Zhonghai out of 800 yuan, he would be so poor that he would almost have to buy his pants.

On the contrary, Chen Xu, whose home was seldom filled with the aroma of meat all year round, no longer has to worry about food and drink. Who could have thought of this?

Things in the world are unpredictable.
