The leisurely life of farmers in mountain villages

Chapter 182

In Wang Fumin's farm, the second batch of broiler chickens was brought in in late April, and the chickens will be sold in early June.And on Wang Shaodong's Songbaishan Farm, the [-] young roosters will not be on the market until August [-]th at the earliest.Therefore, in the second half of May after helping Zheng Shaogang to publicize the broiler chicken breeding, Wang Shaodong temporarily had time to think about the last batch of laying hens.

Wang Shaodong wanted to buy a batch of laying hens. If his feet hadn't been sprained that night when the first batch of broiler chickens were in his family, the first batch of laying hens on Songbai Mountain would have been full moon already.

Accompanying Zheng Shaogang around Dazhai Township, Wang Shaodong has become a celebrity in Dazhai Township, and now he will be recognized wherever he goes.

The broiler chicken breeding promotion ceremony was over, and the next job had nothing to do with Wang Shaodong, and then Wang Shaodong decided to go to Sidian Town to find Li Hong.

Li Hong is a very good chicken farmer. He has been studying chicken farming for more than ten years.Sidian Town is located in the plain area. Every August and September on Sidian Street, cricket fighting is on the market. The whole street is full of cricket buyers, sellers, and cricket fighters. It is said that it is very lively.Li Hong invited Wang Shaodong's family to visit Sidian Town in August and September many times, but in his previous life, he never made the trip.

It's May now, and the cricket fight hasn't started yet, and Wang Shaodong's trip to Sidian doesn't have any benefits in this regard.

Wang Shaodong made preparations on May 25, and then went to Sidian Town.

This Sidian Township is a town under the jurisdiction of Ning'an County, Taishan City, with a total population of over 4, much larger than Dazhai Township.

Towns in plain areas are much larger than those in mountainous areas, and Sidian Village, where the government of Sidian Township is located, is more prosperous than Gangcheng County.Moreover, there are much more fields in the plain area than in the mountainous area, and the yield is much higher. Therefore, after the grain is released, the price of corn in Sidian Town is lower than that in Gangcheng County.In 2003, the price of corn in Gangcheng County was about 5 cents per catty, while that in Sidian Town was only 4 cents per catty.Corn is the main feed for chickens, and the difference in corn prices is finally transmitted to the cost of raising chickens. The cost of chickens raised in Sidian Township is about 15.00% lower than that in Dazhai Township.You must know that this is already a very big gap, because under normal circumstances, the investment income ratio of broiler chickens is only about 3 to [-]%.A batch of [-] chickens, with an investment of one hundred thousand yuan, can earn [-] to [-] yuan, which is not bad.Then, when the market is not good, it is no longer profitable to raise broiler chickens in mountainous areas where corn prices are high, but in plain areas where corn prices are low, there is still profit.

When Wang Shaodong came to Sidian Village, he called Li Hong in advance, and then Li Hong went to the bus station of Sidian Town to wait to pick up Wang Shaodong.

Li Hong is a very down-to-earth person, and this person is very willing to make friends, there are always acquaintances wherever he goes.

Wang Shaodong told Li Hong on the phone that he would come to see their laying hen farm, and Li Hong was very happy to invite him to come.

Wang Shaodong planned to stay at Li Hong's house for a few days, so he carried a big schoolbag with some change of clothes and cleaning supplies in it.

Sitting on Li Hong's motorcycle, Wang Shaodong was carrying a large schoolbag on his shoulders, looking at the surrounding environment.

There are several coal mines around Sidian Town, and many coal trucks pass by the streets of Sidian Town every day. Over time, the whole town of Sidian is covered with a layer of coal dust, which is black and cannot be washed away by rain. .

This is the case in many coal mining areas, and Wang Shaodong has been to many such places in his previous life, such as the place where Yankuang Group is located, and the surroundings of several coal mines in Laicheng County, Luzhong City, all of which are dark. Even the holly on the side of the road is not green at all, it is black.

The motorcycle walked more than 200 meters along the main street of Sidian Village, and then turned into an alley.

At the end of the alley is Li Hong's home, a small two-story western-style building.Li Hong is also considered a thoughtful farmer, earning a lot of money by raising chickens and selling chicken seedlings, and he is considered a relatively wealthy household in his village.

The gate of Li Hong's house is a vermilion lacquered iron gate, with two iron ring handles on the iron gate, and the two handles are two carved lions.Entering the gate, there is an area of ​​more than ten square meters under the gate building, which is a good place to enjoy the shade in summer.

Li Hong and his wife are very enthusiastic. Li Hong's eldest daughter is now seven years old, and his second daughter should not be born until next year.

Because he knew that there was a seven-year-old girl in Li Hong's family, so Wang Shaodong bought her a beautiful floral dress.After entering the room, Li Hong was so enthusiastic that he let Wang Shaodong sit on the sofa, and then Li Hong's wife was busy washing fruit for Wang Shaodong to eat.

Li Hong's eldest daughter, named Li Qing, was timid and hid behind her mother.

Wang Shaodong saw Li Qing, looked at her big eyes inherited from her father, smiled and waved, and said, "little sister Li Qing, come here."

Seeing the guest greeting his daughter, Li Hong hurriedly turned his head and said to his daughter, "Li Qing, you haven't called Big Brother yet."

Li Qing's eyes were beautiful, but her hair was messy and her clothes were a little dirty. It seemed that his mother didn't have much time to take care of her daughter.

In the previous life, Wang Shaodong had been to Li Hong's house. Li Hong's eldest daughter, Li Qing, was more introverted, while his second daughter, Li Xue, was crazy by herself.

The last time Wang Shaodong saw Li Qing and Li Xue was two years after he graduated from university. In 2008, he went to Sankong with his classmates, and then passed by Sidian Town to visit Li Hong.At that time, Li Qing was 12 years old. She was slim and tall, much taller than children of the same age, but she was still very shy.Li Hong asked him to call him brother Wang Shaodong, but she just forced her head up and smiled.But little Li Xue, who was only four years old at the time, was as enthusiastic as an old friend when she saw Wang Shaodong, whom she had never seen before.

When Li Qing heard her father asking her to come over, she poked her head in and took a look, then locked it back.However, her mother pulled her hard, and dragged her to Wang Shaodong while holding a fruit plate.

Wang Shaodong kept looking at this little girl. If she could be washed clean and put on beautiful clothes, she would definitely be a charming little girl.

Wang Shaodong suddenly remembered the clothes he had bought for Li Qing at the Guansi Shopping Mall in Luzhong City, hurriedly pulled his bag and took it out.

"Li Qing, it's for you."

Li Qing looked at the new clothes, but didn't reach out.

"Look at your child, come and play as soon as you come, why do you still buy things for Li Qing?" Li Hong's wife said politely.

Li Hong laughed and said, "Take what Dongzi bought."

Wang Shaodong had stretched out his hand for a minute. Li Qing's mother took the clothes, took them out to measure, and said with a smile, "The size is really suitable."

But Wang Shaodong looked at Little Lolita and asked, "Do you like it?"

Li Qing smiled and nodded, but did not speak.
