Mermaid Farming

"What are you busy with all these hours?" Ren Yu asked him boredly.

Now they don't need to do things in the field, and the weather outside is really cold, so they don't like to go outside.

For the firewood at home, the three brothers had gone to the mountains to get a lot of firewood when they were free.

This also makes them more willing to stay in a warm room and not want to go outside at all.

But staying at home can also be said to be very boring. After all, after a long time, they have nothing else to do.

As for the matter of visiting, they had visited Chen Dashan's house for a while before, so they couldn't go to other people's houses every day.

When the other party's home also started to get busy, they were very sensible and did not continue to go to the other party's home.

There are still a lot of fish in their tanks.

At that time, they fished up all the fish in the pond and sold them.

Except for He Zeyang and the two of them, no one else knew how much money they sold.

Of course, the money was placed in the public house, and the rest of the family had no objections.

Maybe when they will use this sum of money, it is the same as the previous 20 taels of silver.

Moreover, although they don't know the specific amount of these silver coins, they can probably estimate a certain amount, so they are not worried about them secretly using these silver coins.

Being able to get the previous 20 taels of silver, the two of them are extraordinary in the eyes of others.

That's a full 20 taels of silver, not two pennies.

There are two more children in the family, and they will spend more money in the future.

They are all busy making money to support their families.

Especially the second and third brothers, the two of them.

At this moment, there is no good way to make money.

They simply went to the town to find part-time workers to do it.

If they hadn't spent their four taels of silver before, they wouldn't be so anxious.

But there is only a little money left in their hands, and they will not be able to take out any money when they have something to do in the future, or they want to buy something.

With children, of course they want the best for their children.

Give your child the best within your ability.

The best option for them is to go to town to work part-time.

At this time of preparation for the New Year, there are many jobs in the town to find people to work.

Hard work is hard work, but they can also earn a lot of money back.

Ren Yu felt uncomfortable watching them leave early and return late.

"How about taking out some of my pearls and exchanging them for silver, so that they don't have to work so hard?" He said to He Zeyang.

He Zeyang shook his head, "This is their responsibility. Even if you can help them for a while, can you help them for a lifetime?"

"Don't worry so much, they have done more difficult work than these."

Now that they have wives and children, they definitely won't find jobs that hurt their health.

Although He Zeyang said so, he actually prepared some food for their family and let them make up for it.

After going out to work so hard, when I got home, of course I ate better.

As for the money they made back, it was still the same as before, and half of it was handed over to the public.

The rest of the family ate hearty meals every day and had no reason to object.

The money they handed over was not much at all.

"But it's really hard for them to go out every day." Ren Yu said.

He Zeyang stretched out his hand, then held his hand, comforting him and said: "It's okay, they have their own measure, if they really can't do it, they will naturally think of other ways."

"Let's just replenish their bodies in private."

Ren Yu nodded hesitantly. Seeing them working so hard, he really softened his heart.

However, he believed in He Zeyang's words even more, and he said he didn't need it, so he didn't need it.

Ren Yu felt a little regretful in his heart. If he had known this would happen, he should have saved a little more money before living in their house again.

At this time, he would not be so conspicuous if he directly took out the money.

Now if you exchange pearls for money, it is easy to be targeted by others.

"Let's continue to look at those cabinets. How do we make them? Only then can they be beautiful and affordable!" Ren Yu shook his hand back.

Improve his craftsmanship, and then more people will come to their house to make furniture, and their family will have a stable and aboveboard income.

After eating meat dishes for a period of time, they finally couldn't bear to find their eldest brother.

"Brother, we don't have much money in our house. In fact, we don't need to cook meat for us every day. When we work in the town, we will also pay attention to choosing some jobs that don't hurt our health."

"That's right, that's right, let's keep the money for now."

"That's fine. If you don't want to eat pork, let them go fishing another day." He Zeyang didn't force them to eat pork either.

"Yeah, if it doesn't work, don't you still have a lot of that kind of dried fish at home?"

"It doesn't matter if you can't catch fish, it's delicious to cook with these dried fish directly."

There is also a lot of dried fish in their house, even if there are some dead fish that will die during their fishing, the shopkeeper will not accept them.They can't eat that fast either.

Dried fish is their best choice.

As for salted fish?

Rarely do.

Making salted fish requires a lot of salt.

At that time, the price of salt in salted fish will be higher than that of a fish.

So most of them don't know how to use salt to make salted fish.

It's also good for making fish.

And the storage time is also a long period of time.

As for the fish in their water tanks, there are not many left, and they plan to save them for the Chinese New Year.

"What's the matter? Did they ask you out to tell you something?" Ren Yu couldn't help asking when she saw the three brothers whispering.

He Zeyang satisfied his curiosity, "The food in our house is really rich, let's save a little bit, it doesn't matter if they don't have to eat so good."

Ren Yu stopped what he was doing: "Did you agree?"

"Well, let the two of us go fishing for the rest of the time."

Ren Yu immediately showed a smile. Recently, he felt a little bored when he stayed at home all day. It would be a good choice to go fishing.

"Okay, when shall we go?" Ren Yu said happily.

"Then let's start today, and we'll go out after lunch at noon."

"I'll go and see that line now, is the fishing rod in our house still there?"

Ren Yu said excitedly.

Even though the weather is very cold now, he is more willing to go outside for a walk, just to go fishing.

It would be nice for him to get out for some fresh air after spending so much time inside.

They stayed at home all day, but the three little guys at home ran around the village all day.

It is not easy to get tired of playing with this family for a day today, and playing with another family for a day tomorrow.

Or just go straight to the mountains and see if there is anything to eat?

Anyway, they played outside for a whole day, and the time passed quickly. Of course, some of their homework still had to be completed.

Knowing that the two of them are going to go fishing during the day, the three little guys in the family have no interest.

The three little guys all ran to play, and Ren Yu had no choice but to dig earthworms by himself.

While digging for earthworms, he suddenly thought of another thing.

"He Zeyang, I thought of a good way to make money."

He Zeyang glanced at him, he was holding a moving earthworm in his hand.

He said helplessly, "Put the earthworm aside first, and be careful not to get it on your body."

Ren Yu looked at the earthworm in his hand, but he didn't dispel his excitement.

"Okay, now you can talk about it, is there any good way to make money?"

"How about we raise earthworms and feed them to chickens?"

He wants to raise more earthworms, so that they don't need to cut wild vegetables to feed the chickens, and if they feed the chickens with earthworms, they will lay more eggs and grow meat more easily.

By then they will have enough chickens in no time.

Now that the weather is cold.

These hens basically don't lay eggs, and the eggs that were saved in their homes before can't be kept for such a long time.

If they feed the chickens with earthworms, some chickens can be sold quickly.

"Do you know how to raise earthworms?" He Zeyang asked the most important question.

Anyway, they don't know how to raise these earthworms, otherwise, they would have already raised these earthworms to feed chickens.

Ren Yu: "..."

"do not know."

"Besides, raising these earthworms may take more effort than raising chickens. It's better to cut wild vegetables and feed them." He Zeyang said.

Anyway, he had never heard of anyone raising earthworms to feed chickens.

And think about it, how many earthworms can a chicken eat in a day?

If earthworms were used to feed chickens, how many earthworms would they have to feed enough?

He felt that this approach was unacceptable.

If they have the time to raise so many earthworms, they might as well catch a few more ducks.

Feeding ducks is also very convenient, you only need to feed them once a day, and let them stay in the pond or nearby river for the rest of the time, and they will find food by themselves.

And duck eggs are much bigger than chicken eggs.

Ren Yu: "...Okay then, I'll try it out and see if it works."

He said that although he said so, when he went out and saw the earthworms in the bamboo tube crowded together.

Give up this idea for a moment.

The way these earthworms are lying together sticky, looks a bit disgusting!

He sat under the eaves and thought about it for a while. He had only heard that earthworms could be raised to feed chickens. In fact, the people around him had never seen earthworms raised to feed chickens.

I don't know if this method is feasible or not?
