Age: My Small World

Chapter 31 Selling Fish Again

"Baby, you don't know, this rabbit is not easy to raise."

"Xiaoshan, you may have forgotten that our family raised one before, but it died after a few days." The eldest sister took over the conversation.

In fact, Yang Jun did not forget. The incident happened when he was five or six years old. His mother brought four or five rabbits home to raise, but they all died in less than a week.

This is not to say that raising rabbits is too difficult, but that people simply don’t understand rabbits.

Rabbits are very timid by nature. When they change their environment, they will become extremely nervous and easily frightened to death.

Occasionally, thunder or loud talking can cause their death.

Another point that needs attention is the temperature.

If the temperature is too high in the summer, rabbits will die of heatstroke. If they are kept in the winter, they will be frozen to death. If the nest is too humid, they will also die.

"It's okay, sister. I have confidence that the rabbit can survive."

Yang Jun was confident that after drinking the spiritual water, the little rabbits' condition had obviously improved a lot, and even their physical fitness had changed slightly. With such a foundation, it meant that their lives were no longer at risk of premature death.

"By the way, Xiaoshan, where did you get this rabbit? It even comes with a frame." The second sister noticed the bamboo basket and was a little surprised.

"I traded it for fish."

Upon hearing this, the three members of the family couldn't help but feel sorry for the fish, because fish have meat to eat, but rabbits have no meat, and they have to keep them in the future.

"Alright, alright, let's eat first. We'll just keep the rabbit. It'll be perfect for stewing in winter."

I set the tone, but I also thought about the future fate of the two little rabbits.

If they don't grow up quickly and give birth to little rabbits, it is estimated that this fate will be difficult to change.

There is still stewed fish to eat tonight, because I ate most of it yesterday, and there is still a small half pot left.

As Yang Jun slid the corn porridge along the edge of the bowl, he really missed noodles and rice, even steamed corn bread would be fine.

In the past, his favorite staple foods were rice and noodles, which he would eat in rotation with other vegetables, and he would never get tired of them all year round. But suddenly he started eating whole grains every day, and there were still some big ups and downs in his life.

"Let's go to Lijia Village someday."

I can use the excuse of visiting my aunt then. It would be even better if her family has rice seeds.

As for buying it yourself? That's quite difficult. Although Shandong Province produces rice, most of it is supplied to the city. If people in the village want to go to the city to buy food, they must first have a city household registration.

After dinner, Yang Jun went to the space to take a look, irrigated the crops as usual, drank some spiritual water to strengthen his body, and then went back to the house to sleep.

The next day, I went out as usual and found Cheng Xiaoyu. This time, I helped her carry a few buckets of water before going to school.

This time, Yang Jun took the initiative to place the tortilla on the stone platform and began to test his idea from yesterday.

He was almost done by the time he was halfway to school.

Just as I guessed, time does stand still near the stone platform, but it doesn't work away from the top of the mountain, otherwise the plants on the hill will not grow.

By now, he has figured out the general situation of the entire small world.

First, the stone platform can produce spiritual water.

Second, time seems to stand still near the stone platform.

Third, the space has the ability to purify itself, and the filth can be cleaned up with just a thought, so there is no need to worry about what to do with the excess crops.

Fourth, the weather in the space is constant, and it is like spring all year round, but this does not affect the growth of plants. After all, some plants actually prefer cold or dry environments, but they treat all plants equally in the space.

Fifth, jade seems to have a very good effect on space. It is not just as simple as producing spiritual water. After using that little bit of jade last time, the small world vaguely expanded a little bit. Although it was inconspicuous, he gradually noticed it.

"Brother Xiaoshan, what are you thinking about?"

Cheng Xiaoyu's voice beside him brought him back to his senses. "What's wrong?" Yang Jun didn't hear what she said clearly.

"I say, let's go to the grain station together tomorrow."

Cheng Xiaoyu was a little annoyed that he didn't even listen to what she said.

"Okay, I'll come and help Auntie move the food. Otherwise, you and your daughter won't be able to move it."

In addition to the public grain that needs to be paid, the remaining food rations will also be taken to the grain station to be sold, so the things will naturally be very heavy.

In previous years, it was the Fan family who helped, otherwise the Cheng family and the Yang family would have found it difficult to do anything. If only two women moved slowly, they would probably not reach the city before dark.

This year Yang Jun plans to come by himself. He is very strong now, especially after the abundance of spiritual water in the past two days, his body has become even stronger.

"Brother Xiaoshan, can you do it?" Cheng Xiaoyu didn't mind helping, but when she saw Yang Jun's still thin figure, she couldn't help but worry.

He rolled his eyes and rolled up his sleeves, revealing his well-defined arms: "Look, what is this?"

Unlike the hands of other people in the village, Yang Jun's hands were extremely white and tender due to not working for a long time. What's more, he now had muscles and became much stronger.

The little girl seemed to have misunderstood something, her face flushed, and then she said unhappily: "I know you are white, but I can't compare to you."

Yang Jun's face darkened. "I'm talking about muscles. Look, this is tendon meat. It's very powerful."

"Alright, you won't understand even if I tell you. Anyway, you'll know how powerful I am tomorrow. I spent all day fetching water for you, but you still don't understand. What a silly girl."

Seeing him walking in front angrily, the girl behind him couldn't help but laugh.

"Thank you, Brother Xiaoshan." The voice seemed to come from the distant horizon.

"Hurry up and catch up, don't be late."

Yang Jun naturally wouldn't be angry. He didn't even turn around and just greeted him.

It was true that he was late, but it didn't matter. He continued to do morning exercises, which actually helped Yang Jun absorb the spiritual water better.

At noon, I went to the small market as usual.

I didn’t bring Cheng Xiaoyu with me this time because he was going to sell fish.

He didn't forget what he promised to do to improve his life.

In addition to the three at home, he also wanted to give Xiaoyuer some nourishment. The girl was so thin that it was pitiful.

Fortunately, there was enough spiritual water during this period, and the fish grew very fast.

If there wasn't enough food, he would have caught a bunch of big fish.

The effect of the spiritual water on small animals is extremely obvious. Compared to humans, fish will grow and swell significantly in a short period of time after drinking it. For example, some fish that originally weighed only half a catty now weigh three or four catties, and some even weigh five catties.

There are quite a few weighing around two kilograms.

If he wasn't so busy making some money, he thought it wouldn't be surprising if he could raise fish to 10 or 20 kilograms.

But if that happens, the small market in the county town won't be able to cope, and he will be targeted sooner or later, which is not cost-effective.

Yang Jun was thinking of raising some big fish and then selling them when he went to the provincial capital later.

This time he was going to sell five fish weighing about four pounds, which would add up to twenty pounds, but since the quantity was large and the fish were small, they were not so eye-catching.

I still found my old acquaintance Daqiang.

Seeing him appear, Zhou Qiang's eyes lit up.
