However, it is worth mentioning that the wild boar farm does not belong to Liu Xia Lian, but to her mother. Because Liu Xia Lian is a girl and is going to get married, the ownership has been clarified long ago to avoid any disagreements.

After the farm is built, it is expected to produce more than 1,000 hybrid wild boars annually. The first generation of wild boars has very little fat and a lot of lean meat.

By the end of the year, all the wild boar meat in our restaurant will no longer be from wild boars hunted in the mountains, but from wild boars raised in farms.

Pure wild boar meat has a strong fishy smell and is difficult to cook. In addition, since wild boars live in the wild all year round, they have many parasites in their bodies, so there is a certain risk in eating it as an ingredient, and it is far inferior to farmed ones.

Mother had a look of joy on her face, and said happily, "It will be completed in a few days. We will first move the more than 100 fattening pigs from the old house here and divide them into 12 fattening areas in this large yard. We can sell a portion of them every month. The quality of wild boar meat is at least twice as expensive as domestic pigs. We can sell them for 1.4 yuan without any problem."

"No problem. When the quantity is large, I will contact several large cities in the interior. The price is much higher than our local price. However, this base cannot be expanded any further. If it is larger, it will be difficult to control the epidemic prevention."

My mother frowned and said, "I sell a thousand fat pigs and earn fifty yuan per pig. That's only fifty thousand yuan a year. You can't make as much as digging a hundred-year-old ginseng."

Liu Xia Lian looked at her mother in astonishment: "Mom, it's only been a few months, why are you so proud? What do you mean it's only 50,000 yuan a year? Have you forgotten what happened ten months ago? My eldest sister was in confinement, and a chicken almost jumped off a cliff and died for a few eggs."

Mother laughed and said, "How could I forget? I shovel pig manure every day. I was just talking casually. Your brother called a few days ago and said he would come back in a few days. He wants to send the third child to school."

The third child, Liu Dongxue, was admitted to Tianhai Jiaotong University, majoring in shipbuilding. It was quite surprising that a girl studied shipbuilding.

"If we just sell meat pigs, a 200-pound wild boar can only make 160 yuan, even if we calculate it at 80 cents per pound for live pigs. But we can sell breeding pigs. A 100-pound sow can be sold for 200 yuan, and a boar can be sold for 220 yuan. This way we can make more money. We can also implement unified management like the kimchi factory, manage the franchised wild boar farmers, and have a slightly larger scale."

Mother rubbed her forehead and said, "Why do I feel confused? Aren't there wild boars everywhere? Are there people who buy wild boars as breeding pigs?"

"We only have a lot of them here, not necessarily in other places. Besides, not everyone can catch wild boars. Let's try it first. If we can open up the southern market, cooperative breeding is a good way. Otherwise, even if you have more than a thousand wild boars a year, they won't be enough for your own restaurant."

"Okay, then I'll try to find franchisees. Once this place is built, I'll recruit farmers to join in, starting with one sow."

The Pheasant Feilong Farm not far away is already bustling with activity. Outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering because the pheasants are too timid and easily stressed. They may break their necks by crashing into the net if frightened.

The flying dragon is slightly better, but it is too small. Although it tastes good, there is not much meat on it.

The best-performing farm is the roe deer farm managed by Li Xiaofei. It started slowly, with only 50 roe deer born this spring. But Liu Xialian kept adding to the farm, and now the farm has more than 300 female roe deer and 300 roe deer cubs.

The scale is limited to this, unless we find a suitable large site, in normal circumstances, this is the limit. After all, feeding more than 600 roe deer with grass and feed every day is a huge project.

The mule farm managed by Guilan's wife in the old house has hundreds of donkeys that have become pregnant with horse breeds, and all the babies born are mules. When they were raising them, they were worried about fodder, but who would have thought that this summer there would be so much corn stalks that they could eat as much as they wanted.

When Liu Xialian came over, Guilan and the female workers were wearing thick masks beating corn stalks. Fresh corn stalks were kneaded directly into silk, which donkeys and horses love to eat. Fresh grass can be supplied until late autumn, when hay is stored. Large amounts of hay are the long-term food for livestock.

As for the horse farm in the blueberry garden, it has not been used yet. I originally thought that mules would be the main produce there, but blueberries are selling very well recently, and next year will be the peak season. Blueberries alone will earn at least three to four million yuan a year. In comparison, a mule takes more than two years to earn more than a thousand yuan, which always feels a bit uneconomical.

So according to Zhao Hua's suggestion, the Blueberry Garden Horse Farm was changed into a riding horse farm, mainly training iron-hoofed horses, Ili horses, and Ferghana horses. Unfortunately, except for the iron-hoofed horses, the other two are not available at present.

Time flies, and it is already mid-August.

Liu Jingwen, the fourth child who was far away in Beijing University, came back to the dormitory and said, "First, second, and third children, I plan to go home tomorrow. My third sister was admitted to the shipbuilding major of Tianhai Jiaotong University, and I want to go home to see her."

"Okay, we got it." said the boss Guo Xing.

Liu Jingwen went to the library to read again. When it comes to learning, Liu Jingwen is very talented. He can understand something at a glance and learn it quickly.

Guo Xing, Ye Fan and Liu Chang started whispering in the dormitory.

"The fourth child's family is already in financial difficulty. It's already hard to support one student. Now her sister is going to Tianhai Jiaotong University, which makes the family even more miserable. So, the brothers can pool together and get 300-500 yuan and let the fourth child take it back to help out.

Ye Fan said: "No big deal, I have three hundred here."

Guo Xing took out one hundred yuan. Although the third brother's family was well off, they didn't have much money, so he took out fifty yuan. In total, they collected four hundred and fifty yuan.

In the evening, Lao Si returned to the dormitory. Guo Xing took the money and came to Liu Jingwen and said, "Do you treat us as brothers?"

"Is there any need to ask? I definitely treat you as brothers."

"You are my brother, and your sister is our sister. It is a great joy that our sister was admitted to Tianhai Jiaotong University. It is different from Beijing. Everything costs money and is expensive there. We can't let our sister suffer any injustice, right?"

"That's for sure. For men, it's okay to suffer a little grievance. But for girls, they like to cry and can't bear any grievance." Liu Jingwen said.

Guo Xing took out four hundred and fifty yuan and handed it to Jing Wen: "The three of us pooled some money together. It's nothing special. It's for our sister's travel expenses. Don't let her suffer any injustice when she arrives at school."

Liu Jingwen refused to take it: "No, no, no, I really don't need it. If I ask you for money without permission, my mother will beat me."

"Here you go again. We are all brothers. Don't try to be so arrogant. I know you will say that we have pigs at home, but raising pigs in the countryside is slow. We can only raise a few pigs a year. Just take it and consider it as our travel expenses to our sister."

The second brother Ye Fan and the third brother Liu Chang also followed to persuade him, but Liu Jingwen was not good at speaking and could not win the argument with the three of them.

"Okay, I'll take it then. You guys are trying to get me scolded."
