Lucky First Daughter: After crossing, she will fly the whole family with her mouth

Chapter 31 Pig Raising
"Pig raising?" Although Liu Dashan didn't understand why Xiao Jinyue suddenly thought of asking this, he said honestly, "A few years ago, the family was pretty decent, and once raised a pig."

"Can you tell me how you raised them?"

"Can say, can say."

Raising pigs is not a secret, so naturally there is nothing that cannot be said.Since the girl wanted to know, he naturally wouldn't keep her mouth shut.

In the early years, although the family was decent, but the eldest brother and him got married and had children one after another, and the eldest sister and the second sister got married, and the family was gradually emptied.

When it was the younger brother's turn, seeing that the family could not afford the dowry, his parents gritted their teeth and decided to follow others and buy a little piglet to raise.

He thought that when he was raised and sold, he would naturally have money as a bride price for his younger brother.

After the piglets were bought, because the adults had to take care of the crops in the field, the children of the family had to go out to hunt pigweed every day and come back to feed them.

Although the children were well-raised, the pig grew slowly, and after being raised for a year and a half, it weighed less than [-] catties.

And because the pigs were raised, they had a strong smell and few people liked to eat them, so they only sold them for less than a thousand yuan.

After working hard for a year and a half, this amount of money is really not worth it.As the children grow up, it is more cost-effective to go to the fields with the adults to serve the crops.

In addition, some people in the village raise pigs, and if they are not carefully served, it is not uncommon for them to die of illness before they are raised.

That would be nothing but fetching water from a bamboo basket.

Therefore, after the pig was sold, the family did not continue to feed it.

After listening to Liu Dashan's narration, Xiao Jinyue twitched the corners of her mouth.It's no wonder they don't want to raise pigs. The pigs that took a year and a half to raise are sold for less than [-] yuan. The income is really too low.

However, she knew that castrated pigs not only had no smell, but the meat was delicious, and they also grew faster than uncastrated pigs.

So she asked with a smile, "Uncle Liu, I want to ask you to raise pigs for me, would you like it?"

Liu Dashan was really surprised when he heard this.

When Xiao Jinyue asked this, it was also on a whim.

The smell of yesterday was still lingering in her mind. She just thought about it, as long as she couldn't eat any part of the pig, she would feel that her life was gloomy and the rest of her life would be meaningless.

After all, this is ancient times, and cattle are used to plow the fields, so they cannot be slaughtered at will.If you can't kill cattle, you won't be able to eat beef, and what she likes most is cattle.

Whether it's fried beef, fried steak, beef ribs, or stewed beef brisket, she likes grilled beef skewers.Or eating hot pot with snowflakes, hanging dragons, fat cattle, etc. is also a must.

The thought of not being able to eat these was enough to drive her crazy, and she wished she could travel back to modern times right away.

If you can't eat beef, you can only choose pork as the next best thing.But she couldn't stand the smell of pork.

Seeing Liu Dashan and his son today, she had the idea of ​​raising pigs.

As long as the piglets are castrated and then raised, they will naturally not smell bad.

She wanted to raise pigs, first to satisfy her appetite, and second, to sell them for money.

She believes that no one can refuse a pig that has been raised after castration.Pork is the most eaten by modern people, and this is the best proof.

Although she doesn't know how to raise pigs, she knows that pigs raised with rice bran and wheat bran mixed with bellflower and various vine leaves grow better than pigs fed only with pigweed.

She asked Liu Dashan to help raise the pigs. Of course, it was not for nothing. She planned to pay fifty yuan a month, and then provide the rice bran and wheat bran for raising the pigs.

Liu Dashan was stunned by what Xiao Jinyue said.

Even Mrs. Xue couldn't afford to support her forehead. Miss Qianjin of the other family either recited poems and wrote odes or worked as a needlework girl. Her daughter was so good that she wanted to raise pigs.

Even though she doesn't need to feed it herself, if it gets out, the world will still be ridiculed.

Seeing her daughter's serious face, she was not joking, although Xue was full of words, it was not easy to ask her in front of outsiders.

Mrs. Xue glared at her daughter, motioned her not to speak, and then said to Liu Dashan, "Father Xiaoxi, I actually want to raise pigs. Our family has a large population, so the daily expenses are naturally high. This is a lot of money to buy vegetables and meat every month."

"I was thinking, if I can raise some poultry and livestock at home, I can at least help to make up for it. Besides, the carefully raised ones at home are definitely better than those bought from noodles."

"I didn't expect my little girl to be anxious for me. Before I even opened my mouth, she asked you to help raise pigs."

The honest and honest Liu Dashan nodded repeatedly after hearing Xue's call.

In his opinion, what Xue said was indeed reasonable. For such a large mansion with so many people, the money spent every day must be an astonishing sum.

If you can raise some chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle and sheep, you don't need to buy them outside, and you can save a lot of money.Besides, the ones raised by oneself are indeed better than the ones outside.

In this way, as soon as Mrs. Xue called, Liu Dashan nodded and accepted the matter of raising pigs.

In the end, he took the pig money that Xue had advanced in advance, and drove home happily with his son.

Liu Dashan didn't expect that his visit to the Xiao Mansion would benefit him immensely.

In the future, not only will the chopped firewood not worry about selling, but he will also be able to help the Xiao family raise pigs, which will be paid fifty pennies a month, and the raised pigs will be repurchased by the Xiao family, so he will not worry about selling them at a loss.

The most important thing is that helping to raise pigs will not delay the work in the field. A few children from the family who raise pigweed can be brought back, and the Xiao Mansion will also provide rice bran and wheat bran for raising pigs.

There are many children in the family, and the harvest in the field depends on whether God favors him or not.When the year is good, it is just to maintain food and clothing. When the year is bad, it is commonplace to eat the last meal and worry about the next meal.

Therefore, in addition to the work in the field, he has to go to the city from time to time to find some work to make money to support his family.

However, there are many people like him who go to the city to look for work, but the jobs in the city are limited, and they often cannot find work.

But now, with the great thing of raising pigs, he finally doesn't have to go to the city to run into a wall. As long as he carefully helps Xiao's house raise pigs, he can have a stable income of [-] Wen per month, and he doesn't have to delay the work in the field.

In his opinion, there is really no better happy event than this.

With the silver in his arms, Liu Dashan hurried home with fluttering steps. Now he feels energetic all over his body.

Xiaoxi carried the snacks sent by the fairy sister, and followed his father home happily.

What his father said was really good, they met a nobleman, and soon their family will have a good life.

Moreover, his father said that he is the lucky star of the family, and when the family makes money in the future, they can send him to the school to study and read.

Liu Dashan and his son left, and Xue finally asked out the words he had been holding back.

Xiao Jinyue had no choice but to explain that she only thought of raising pigs for money when she saw her mother worrying about the family's expenses every day.

And she read the introduction in the book, as long as the piglets are castrated, the raised pigs will have no peculiar smell, and the meat will be delicious, and the number of people who accept pork will increase greatly.

In the future, the pigs raised by her will not only fail to sell, but will also become popular.
