Nongmen eldest sister: Farming and opening shops

Chapter 79

The preserved fruit and fruit wine at home are all sold out, so Lin Qinghe no longer has to go to the county town, and Lin Qinghe has a lot of leisure time, so she fixes her eyes on the chickens at home. The first batch of 55 chickens bought back have now grown into adult chickens. Big chicken.

She saw that those roosters had grown to about the same size, and they probably wouldn't grow very long if they continued to raise them. It was time to deal with them.

Lin Qingmiao poured the shredded grass into the open space in front of the chicken coop, and the roosters rushed over to fight for it like a swarm. The roosters were the most fierce. They would bow their heads and peck at the hens beside them from time to time, which made her angry.

"These roosters are really annoying. The hen has been pecked. I don't know if it will affect the laying of eggs."

"Probably not, but these cocks should be dealt with." Lin Qinghe glanced at them and said.

"How to deal with it?"

"I have to ask you this question. Do you think it's better to kill these roosters for meat, or to sell them for money?" Lin Qinghe asked with a smile.

For her, both are fine. Killing chickens and eating meat can make everyone's bodies strong. The body is stronger than anything else. If you sell it for money, you can also buy fine grains and pork to eat. The same can be done. Replenish the body.

Hearing this, Lin Qingmiao thought about it seriously, and finally said: "Let's just kill one and eat it, and sell the rest for money. The ink at home is almost used up, so we should buy it."

The pen, ink and paper are definitely the biggest consumption in the family. How can I say that many families can’t afford to pay for the scholars? They can’t afford to pay for this kind of consumption. However, reading requires writing, and these are essential of.

"Okay, then listen to you."

Hearing this, Lin Qingmiao was very happy, as if she could be part of the family, and said happily: "Sister, I found that our chickens grow faster than other chickens, and the chickens of Fugui's uncle's chickens grow faster than other chickens. We bought it two days late, but it is not as big as our chickens."

"Of course, our chickens have eaten a lot of meat." The earthworms that cost a penny and a bamboo tube are not for nothing.

"It's a great way to raise chickens like this. We can raise more in the future." There are more than 300 chickens, large and small, in the family, but she still feels that it is not enough.

Lin Qinghe shook his head: "More than 300 chickens are enough. If there are more, they will easily get sick if they are crowded together. It will be bad if they get chicken plague."

"Chickens can also get sick, so let's just raise these." If she really gets sick, the capital will be lost, and she is very good at settling accounts now.

"Hey, big sister, what do you think that is?" Lin Qingmiao jumped into the fence and ran towards the chicken coop. After a while, she came out with an egg in her hand and shook her with a smile on her face: " The hen has laid eggs."

Lin Qinghe couldn't help laughing. It's really time to lay eggs after growing so big: "Since you picked it up, then I will reward you with this egg."

"Save it first, and when we get a few more eggs, we'll scramble them into a plate and eat together." She is not a person who eats alone.

"Then do as you say."

"In this case, we can also save eggs and sell them, and the family will have more income in the future." This is really great.

"Give them more food recently, maybe they can guarantee one egg a day." In this case, they can really sell eggs.

"I see that these chickens also eat spiders. I netted all the spiders in front of and behind the house to feed them." The man ran away after talking.

Seeing that Lin Qinghe shook his head and laughed: "This kid is really impatient."

A peddler came into the village, and Hei Ya held the purse in her bosom. After thinking for a long time, she took out a penny and bought a few small candies from the peddler. She stared at the candies in the paper and swallowed hard. Drooling, finally not willing to eat, wrapped up.

A boy walked by, saw the candy in her hand at a glance, and grabbed it with his hand.

Hei Ya was startled at first, then looked up, and immediately yelled: "Brother Hei Niu, return the candy to me quickly, I bought it."

"You are a girl, you deserve to eat candy, so let me eat this candy." After saying that, he stuffed a piece into his mouth, and began to eat happily.

Heiya burst into tears immediately: "You give it back to me, it's mine, give it back to me."

"It's not yours. Your family is so poor that they can't even afford food. How can they give you money to buy candy? I think you stole the money for candy. Two days ago, my mother was still saying that I lost it." Money, I think you sneaked into my house and stole it."

"You talk nonsense. I didn't steal money from my auntie. Since the separation, I haven't been to your house again, let alone steal money."

"You didn't steal the money, so where did you say it came from? Your parents are so poor, how can you be rich?"

"I didn't steal it, you give it back to me, it's mine." Hei Ya yelled anxiously.

When the peddler came, many people gathered here to look at the goods. There were many adults and children. Hearing their quarrel, they didn't know who was more reasonable for a while, and they didn't make random remarks. Besides, in their opinion, Hei Niu, Hei Ya's two cousins, that is, a family, it's not easy for outsiders to favor anyone else.

"I gave her the money." Lin Qingmiao squeezed in from the crowd and said, "Of course it's not for nothing, it's Hei Ya's reward, and she deserves it."

"You said what you gave is what you gave, and I said she stole my mother's money." Hei Niu said with a face of dissatisfaction.

Lin Qingmiao frowned: "Why are you unreasonable?"

"I think you are unreasonable. Who doesn't know that you are close to Hei Ya, and you are just helping her at this time." Hei Niu pouted.

"Every time I give money to Heiya, I keep it in the account. If you don't believe me, I can go home and show you the account book to prove that I am not wrong, and it is wrong for you to steal other people's things. You have to pay Hei Ya." Lin Qingmiao glared at Hei Niu, she hated such a big bullying the small one.

"Then you said why did you give Hei Ya money?" Hei Niu thought she was talking nonsense, Hei Ya is a little girl, why can she make money.

Lin Qingmiao hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Lin Qinghe who was not far away, and saw her nod her head, and then said, "Hei Ya helps me catch bugs, and I'll pay her as wages."

"Catch bugs? Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter, bugs can be sold for money, it's a joke."

Not believing what she said, and still laughing like this, Lin Qingmiao's face turned red with anger.

Lin Qinghe stood up from the crowd at this time and said, "It's true. The worms are caught to feed the chickens. Anyone of you who has time can catch them. You will be given a penny for a bamboo tube."

Regardless of her young age, she already exists as a family member, so people in the village treat her as an adult. Her words are highly credible, and she said a penny on the spot If there is an insect in a bamboo tube, no one will doubt it.

Hei Niu felt uncomfortable now, he stuffed the candy in Hei Ya's hand, and was about to leave.

"You ate a piece of candy just now, and you must pay for it. If you don't pay for it, you are not allowed to leave."

"I have no money." Hei Niu is very bachelor.

"Hmph, then keep the account first, and pay Heiya after you catch a bamboo tube of bugs for a penny."
