Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt
Chapter 128: The Eldest Sister's Way of Raising Geese
When everyone was present, Liu Jun signaled for everyone to raise their glasses. The men drank liquor, and the women drank fruit juice.
Liu Jun said: "Today my nephew Gangzi is hosting the village chief. Let's toast to the village chief first. Let's all drink up."
The three men drank a small amount of wine, tilting their heads back and drinking it all. After all, it was only 42 degrees of alcohol, not liquor.
Liu Fugang filled Liu Jun's glass first, then the village chief's, and finally his own glass, saying, "Today I want to thank the village chief, my uncle, aunt, and cousins. I thought I came here to escape famine, but I didn't expect to come here to enjoy happiness."
The village chief said: "Well, well, I have to be on duty at night, so I can only drink a little. Don't persuade me later."
The village chief is a very honest man. Even without anyone urging him to drink, he still drank half a pound of wine and was a little confused.
When Liu Jun saw that it was almost time, he winked at his mother and said, "We've finished drinking, let's prepare the rice." The winter in Changbai Mountain is terrible. If someone gets drunk and falls on the snow, the whole village will have a feast in less than half an hour.
The sister-in-law got up to serve rice to everyone. Before she was done, the third child jumped out of bed and started crying. Soon after, the eldest and second child also started crying. It is not easy for a woman to raise children and life is such a mess.
Liu Xialian took the bowl and served rice to everyone. This banquet was quite perfect, with decent food and wine, and no waste. If it was someone else's house, the village chief could still put on airs, but when it came to Liu Xialian, forget it. The family was full of ruthless people and they couldn't afford to offend.
Liu Jun and Liu Xialian need not be mentioned. Even the third child, Liu Dongxue, and the fourth child, Liu Jingwen, are top students. They will definitely go to college next year. In this day and age, if you go to college, your future is limitless. At the very least, you can get a good job in a central enterprise or a state-owned enterprise. At the most, you can become a county magistrate or a mayor.
Therefore, the village chief had nothing to say about the Liu family. He took care of them in every way and everyone gave each other face.
After dinner, the village chief put on his sheepskin coat and went back to the village office. During this period, he had to focus on fire prevention and the safety of the villagers.
After lunch, Liu Xialian went to her brother Liu Jingwen and said to him, "I want to build a greenhouse. Can you calculate how many pillars and wood I need?"
Liu Jingwen felt a headache: "I don't even know what a greenhouse is, how can you ask me to calculate it?"
"I'll draw it for you." Liu Xia Lian took a pencil and drew a simple shed pattern.
"What is this for? To protect pigs and sheep from rain?"
"Don't worry about it. This is my trade secret. The first shed is fifty meters long, four meters wide, and the walls are half a meter thick. The slope is covered with plastic sheets and supported by wood in the middle. Calculate for me how far apart a wooden board can support the heavy snow in winter."
"But sister, after the New Year, it will be the beginning of spring, and the snow will become less and less."
"It's not going to take a year, so calculate it carefully for me, otherwise I won't give you living expenses when you go to college."
"No, no, I'm not good enough at designing."
Little boys love to tinker with these things. Under the blood pressure of his second sister, Liu Jingwen began to plan and design the greenhouse. Of course, there is a big gap between theory and practice, so it can be used as entertainment during study breaks.
Liu Xia Lian asked again: "Third sister, I'm going to visit my eldest sister's relatives, are you coming?"
"Forget it, I won't go. I'm not smart. I'll just look at a few more sets of questions."
Liu Xia Lian didn't bring anyone with her and drove the big black mule carriage by herself.
After getting in the car and covering himself with the quilt, he shouted to Dahei, "Let's go to my elder sister's house."
Dahei snorted in dissatisfaction and shook his head, refusing to leave.
Liu Xia Lian had no choice but to give it two pieces of radish. The creature put the radish in its mouth and ate while walking.
It was a ten-mile journey very quickly. Liu Xia Lian didn't have to drive the car at all. The big black mule drove automatically and stopped at the door of her elder sister's house.
My brother-in-law Zhang Wang is putting up couplets.
"Where's my sister? Are you alone?"
"Your sister is in the kang room. The geese are already half a month old, but the temperature is not well controlled. It fluctuates. Some of them are sick. Your sister is getting angry."
"Oh, so it's because of this. I'll go check it out."
As soon as you enter the kang room, there is a smell of goose manure. Even if you clean it every day, the smell is still there and it is difficult to avoid.
"Sister, how many goslings are there?"
"After the last egg-candling, 180 goslings came out of 200 eggs. Three weak goslings were injured after they hatched, and three more were eliminated. Now there are 174 goslings, but four of them can't stand up."
Liu Xialian took a look at the goose seedlings and said with certainty, "Sister, you have done a great job. It's so cold, with the temperature outside at minus 20 degrees Celsius. It's a huge success that you can raise the goslings to this level. But there are still some areas that need improvement. First of all, it's not enough to use only straw on the goose bed. Use rice husks instead. Make sure they are clean and not moldy. If that doesn't work, fry them in a big pot. Rice husks can absorb the goose's feces, making the goose bed cleaner."
Liu Qiuyue slapped her head and said, "You're right. Why didn't I think of that? With rice husks, the goose will be warmer."
"Let me take a look at the condition of these four paralyzed goslings." Liu Xia Lian carefully examined their appearance but couldn't see anything. After all, she was not a professional veterinarian and did not have any equipment.
"Sister, how do you prepare the feed?"
"Sixty percent corn crumbs, twenty percent rice bran, twenty percent soybean meal, and then grass powder and salt." Liu Qiuyue took the basin and showed it to Liu Xialian.
Liu Xialian touched the feed and said, "As a concentrated feed, this is problematic. It lacks calcium. Another thing is that geese are herbivores. From today on, reduce the amount of concentrated feed by 20%, and feed one meal of chopped cabbage."
"There are more than 170 geese, and they need several cabbages a day. We didn't store enough in the fall, so if we go to the market to buy them, we won't have enough money to cover the cost."
"Then feed them in small quantities. Find some carrots and pumpkins and chop them up and feed them. In short, the green feed should make up at least 30% of the goslings' food. When grass is available in the spring, they will need more grass."
"That's easy. There are a lot of weeds on the riverbank in the early spring. We can eat them for a long time."
"It's okay for the weeds to grow there. If you have to feed all the geese, people in the village will gossip about you. Three or two hundred geese should be fine, but if there are three or five thousand, don't count on the wild land. When the time comes, rent a piece of land to make a sports field, plant dozens of acres of grass from the farmland, and take turns cutting it to feed the geese."
Liu Qiuyue was running out of ideas: "This is the first time I've heard of someone planting grass. Aren't they all planting crops?"
"If you grow a lot of grass, such as alfalfa, you can raise geese, and it's worry-free. Just do it well and don't worry about anything else. Just raise the geese well, and you can earn ten thousand yuan a year."
"Ten thousand yuan household?" Liu Qiuyue looked incredulous.
"Yes, a millionaire."
Liu Qiuchu has only a junior high school education and has beautiful handwriting. She takes notes on raising geese every day and can take care of her children and raise geese at the same time.
Two puppies were playing and fighting with each other in the yard. Liu Xialian said, "Take good care of these two puppies. They will be good at looking after the house in the future. Too many poultry at home will easily attract wild animals. Next year, you can hire a woman to live in the house and work with you."
