Let you go home and raise chickens, what the hell is this confinement center?

Chapter 18 I've never seen anyone buy it this way

Chapter 18 I've never seen anyone buy it this way
Staple food crops such as corn, sweet potatoes, and wheat must be purchased at designated agricultural supply stations in the county.

There are many varieties, sufficient quantities and guaranteed quality.

The rest can be bought at the market.

Lin Feng decided to take a look first, and then go to the agricultural supply station if he couldn’t buy everything.

Who knows, you might be able to find something good at the fair.

The main feature of a big rural fair is its liveliness.

Standing at the street corner and looking around, you can see a sea of people, really shoulder to shoulder.

The sounds of hawking, chatting and laughing came like waves, making the place very lively.

Lin Feng thought about it, found a high ground, and took some photos with his mobile phone.

I'll go back and edit it and put it online, maybe someone will like to watch it.

This is the trouble of starting a farm in your hometown. You have to consider everything and make your own mistakes.

Once the farm is on track and has a surplus, I will definitely hire a few employees.

One is responsible for publicity and promotion, another is responsible for market research, and another is responsible for procurement and planting...

After some imagination, Lin Feng smiled, put away his phone, and walked into the market.

The people inside come from various towns and villages in the surrounding areas, and they sell all kinds of things.

Such as selling food, clothes, toys and so on.

Of course, there are also people selling seeds and seedlings.

"Chickens for sale! Home-hatched chicks!"

When the loud hawking voice sounded, Lin Feng was immediately attracted.

Looking at the people surrounding the place in three layers inside and outside, although he couldn't see the specific situation clearly, Lin Feng felt that the things should be good, otherwise why would there be so many people surrounding it?

He immediately squeezed in with great effort.

Then, I saw little chicks that were obviously dyed in various colors, crowded in a narrow box.

Lin Feng: "..."

Well, the crowd may not necessarily know what’s good.

It's obvious that this kind of chicken is bought to trick children into being a pet chicken.

Looking around, it was obvious that the people surrounding were all parents with children.

Lin Feng squeezed out again with great effort.

After walking around for a while, he finally saw the chick he liked.

"Uncle, what kind of chicken do you have? Did you hatch them yourself?"

Lin Feng asked seriously.

The stall owner looked at Lin Feng and replied with some disdain:
"This is a native chicken I raised at home. I don't know the breed, but it was passed down from the older generation."

"This chicken can grow to eight or nine pounds, so it's not suitable to be kept as a pet at home."

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng knew that the old man treated him as a playful kid.

"I don't keep pets, I'm a serious breeder."

As he spoke, Lin Feng stepped forward and carefully observed the chicks in the box.

Sensing someone approaching, the little chicks all huddled together, chirping.

Lin Feng could clearly sense that the little chicks were a little timid, but they were full of curiosity about him.

He guessed that this should be related to the animal affinity given by the system.

"Master, can this chicken really grow to be eight or nine kilograms in size?"

That's almost the same as the giant bone chicken given by the system.

"Why would I lie to you? I'll show you what they look like when they grow up."

As he spoke, the old man pulled over a bamboo cage with a big rooster inside.

When the big rooster saw someone moving the cage, he looked unconvinced and started pecking at the person.

The old man also knew the rooster's temper and dodged it quickly.

Lin Feng took a look and found that this chicken was even bigger than his annoying rooster and indeed weighed about eight kilograms.

However, the feathers are not as bright as the giant bone chicken given by the system.

The beak should also be shortened.

However, with this kind of chicken, the origin of the chicken rewarded by the system can also be concealed.

"How to sell it?"

Lin Feng reached out and picked up a chick.

The solid kicking feeling is much stronger than that of ordinary white-feathered chickens.

Especially this batch of chicks, they all look very energetic.

White-feathered chickens are a breed cultivated on farms.

Its characteristic is that it grows very fast, but its disadvantages are also obvious, such as high requirements for feed and poor disease resistance.

However, the advantage of being able to be marketed in just a few dozen days has also allowed them to replace a large number of native chicken breeds.

At present, all kinds of fast food fried chicken restaurants on the market use white-feathered chickens.

This time, the list given by the students included white-feathered chickens, but Lin Feng was not going to buy them. "3 yuan each, take it."

Hearing the price, Lin Feng was stunned.

So expensive!

Lin Feng knew the market price of chicks. A white-feathered chicken cost one yuan.

Other local varieties are only around two yuan.

This old man just asked for 3 yuan.

However, to be honest, this chick is really good...

After a pause, Lin Feng tried to bargain:

"Uncle, 20 for 50 yuan, okay?"

The old man lowered his head and counted the number of chicks, glanced at Lin Feng, and waved his hand:
"Well, for 60 bucks, I'll give you the box, which has 23 in total."

Lin Feng thought about it. Although the bamboo baskets in the countryside were not valuable, he was given three chickens for free, so he could be considered a successful bargain.

"Row!"

After the deal was settled, Lin Feng noticed that there was a group of yellow flat-billed fish next to the old man.

One of them looked at him in an extremely overbearing manner.

It's a bit fierce and playful, and very entertaining.

"Uncle, are you a duck or a goose?"

"It's a goose."

Lin Feng nodded. It turned out that he was the famous village bully. No wonder he looked so arrogant.

"What? You want to buy it?"

The old man pulled the basket over and introduced:

"This is called a scar-eyed goose. If you raise it well, it can lay an egg every other day. The female one costs five yuan, and the male one costs three yuan."

"I can pick out a male and a female for you, but you have to buy them in pairs, two female geese for one gander."

Lin Feng looked at the little goose with its head held high and chest puffed out, and felt a little fond of it.

Although it is strange that the old man asked to buy them together, it is not unacceptable.

All I can say is that a gander that can't lay eggs really has no goose rights.

Lin Feng recalled a popular science article he had read before, that the roosters in the chicken farm were probably sent to the assembly line and turned into feed right after they were hatched...

With this association, Lin Feng could understand it.

Like the chicks he just bought, since they are mainly grown for meat, both males and females are the same and no one dislikes them.

But the egg goose is different.

Their main function is to lay eggs, while ganders are of little use.

Even if you want to eat meat, this kind of gander is not as good as the meat goose.

Lin Feng knew that there was a kind of meat goose called the lion-head goose, which could grow to about 40 kilograms.

Can't compare, can't compare at all.

"Okay, uncle, pick out the chicken and goose for me, and make up a hundred dollars in total."

As long as the goslings are good, he doesn’t care whether they are male or female. He raises them for his own consumption anyway.

"to make!"

The old man happily started catching goslings.

Of course, the little goose that caught Lin Feng’s attention was the first to enter the bamboo basket.

"Young man, I see that you are a capable person. If you are short of one dollar, I will just give you a little gander. It won't be any problem to raise it and eat its meat."

"These chickens and geese are really easy to take care of!"

"Okay, thank you, sir."

Lin Feng held the bamboo basket and continued to stroll around the market.

Whenever he saw chicks or ducklings for sale, he would stop to take a look. If he saw a breed he had never seen before, he would buy two to try.

Finally, Lin Feng was stopped by an aunt selling ducks:

"Young man, why do you buy so many varieties?"

It's just... a mess of mix and match.

Is this guy really normal?
Lin Feng:......

I looked down at the chicks and ducklings in the frame and they did seem a bit discordant.

Black, yellow, half black and half yellow, all kinds of things, eye-catching.

"Auntie, can't I raise a mixed breed?"

He was just curious about what the differences were among so many varieties.
