I am planting a field in the last days

Chapter 308

"What? Jingshu, what are you talking about? Say it again, my uncle just had an auditory hallucination."

Jing Shu sighed and said, "Uncle, kill all these pigs in a few days." Jing Shu repeated.

Uncle said incredulously: "Why? The market for raising pigs is so good now, do you know how much pork sells for a catty? I also understand your thoughts. Now that red nematodes are extinct, raising them has become a big problem, but we If I calculate the worm feed for my share of profits, I can raise hundreds of pigs, so it won’t be difficult to survive until the end of the world, right?”

The end of the world seems to be over soon, and it will get worse and worse in the future.

Jing Shu stretched out her hand that was the same as before the end of the world, grabbed a handful of red nematodes in the pond, kneaded and inspected it, then shook her head, "Uncle, how long have you kept red nematodes in this pond?"

"It's been more than two months. After knowing that the red nematode is extinct, I have been serving it like an ancestor, sometimes throwing some feed in."

"It's been so long, and it's still the same pool. Don't you think there's something wrong with their reproduction? Common red nematodes have a very short reproductive cycle. It only takes three days to grow from bacteria to eggs, and it takes a few days to grow from eggs to larvae. I used to raise Gently rubbing the red nematodes, there is the sound of blisters being squeezed, those are highly active eggs, you have very few eggs, so I don’t need to elaborate on what it means.”

Few eggs and a low birth rate mean that the reproduction speed is extremely slow, and the long cycle means that they cannot fish out half of them every day for pigs to eat as before, and a large number can grow again in a few days to become a steady stream of feed.

Uncle also suddenly reacted, and checked carefully, "I really didn't pay attention to this. I just raised a small pond at the beginning, and I was very happy watching them grow up every day, but this speed is really too fast. Slow, the speed of reproduction is far behind the speed of consumption."

Uncle began to feel melancholy. Originally, he thought that raising the pool of red nematodes would be able to provide feed for at least a dozen pigs every day. You must know that pigs are the most wasteful feed and the most edible among all livestock.

"Then, even if the red nematodes in this pond are useless, we have at least hundreds of tons of red nematode feed for our share, which is enough to raise pigs. If the pigs are exchanged for rice and food, wouldn't that make more money?" Uncle said back and forth. walking in the pig farm, checking this pig for a while, and checking that pig for a while.

"Okay, Uncle, let me do the math for you. You should know how to raise so many pigs. Just calculate according to the minimum standard. A pig should be at least 3 kg per day without losing weight. We are not counted as sows." Lactating period, empty pregnancy period, etc., a pig gets at least one ton of food a year. You said that if you take your current dozens of pigs and the rate of new pigs, your share is fully calculated, that is, enough to eat for two years .”

Uncle nodded, "Pigs can indeed be eaten, but if they lose fat, they will lose money, so they must be fed with more meat."

"What about two years later? With the addition of those that were bred naturally and those that were slaughtered and sold, you still have so many pigs, but you have no feed."

"Maybe there will be other fodder in two years? Or is the end of the world over?" Uncle said.

"So, what if there is still nothing after two years?" Jing Shu asked lightly.

". If not, I can only kill them all and exchange them for things. But I am not losing money. I have at least dozens of pigs in the past two years. According to the current price, I can at least exchange a lot of pigs. Food and stuff."

Jing Shu shook her head, "But you have no way out, and you even lost money. If you kill these pigs now, then you can get more in the past two years. Not only will you get dozens of pigs, but you will also lose money." You only keep breeding pigs to breed piglets, and the value of selling live piglets is much higher than the value of adult pigs, and you can save dozens of tons of food every year.”

"These foods can support these breeding pigs for you. After two years, you still have a lot of feed to continue breeding breeding pigs for at least many years. Your live red nematodes can also be used for emergency."

Uncle's eyes gradually lit up, "You're right Jingshu, the end times don't know when it will end, if you plan for the worst, you will never be able to grow food, and the piglets can be sold to rich merchants for a price, It is indeed possible to exchange for more things, after all, there are very few live pigs now, so the risk can be greatly reduced, and at any time, you must leave yourself a way out."

Jing Shu smiled lightly, didn't say anything else, just figured it out, I'm afraid that for the sake of short-term interests, it will ruin the bright future in the future, raising pigs doesn't have to expand the scale, after all, in the future, everyone will become a piece The slices starved to death, how could there be extra food to feed the pigs.

If in a few years, the eldest uncle expands his business to several hundred pigs, it is estimated that he will be the first pig killed above.

But now let him keep two or three breeding pigs. As a cherished and protected animal, the pigs must be left behind. The government can still see this clearly.

"Okay, it's only been a few days, Jingshu, I have to eat hundreds of kilograms of feed every day, my heart is hurting, let's just kill the master today, just right, I'll find some more It depends on whether you can get oxytocin, dozens of pigs, you have to find Wang Mazi to kill them together, otherwise there will be so much feed if you delay one day."

Uncle is also a vigorous and resolute person, he does what he thinks.

"Uncle..."

"Don't worry, you don't need to ask your aunt for your suggestion. No matter what it is, she agrees with both hands." Uncle turned his head and smiled.

"Uncle, I mean you don't need to find someone. What if the news about killing so many pigs gets out, and food is in short supply now, what if someone makes trouble, robs them by force, or takes them by force? I have all the pigs in our family. Kill it, so I will be responsible for killing pigs, and you will be responsible for cleaning up the water, and we will try our best to finish it before my sister-in-law gives birth." Jing Shu coughed and said, she always kills the master in space, and it is very easy to kill pigs in absolute space , but I haven't tried it in reality.

She wants to try.

"Look, I forgot, you are so strong, you must be a good butcher of pigs, all right, let's go."

Jingshu started to kill pigs outside for the first time. Uncle meant to tie up the pigs in order to prevent the pigs from struggling before they died. Help boil water and get ready for work."

"Okay, let's take our time."

After Jing Shu sent her uncle away, it started. After all, if there was an accident, she would directly receive it and kill it in the space. Dozens of cattle, sheep and pigs were killed in the space. Jing Shu is also sharpening her sword now.
