Traveling through the farmhouse: farming and making a fortune and raising cubs

When he went out the next day, Li Changhui really brought a bow and arrow, not only that, but also some spices and two pieces of flint and steel.

He promised to take Li Changhui to hunt in the nearby mountains yesterday, but he still hasn't forgotten.

After Li An was sent to the academy, the two went to the field to have a look, and then went directly up the mountain from the nearby path.

This farm is very large, but there are many mountains, but the mountains are not high, and they are far apart, and there are many villagers in the mountains, not the kind of large mountains that stretch for thousands of miles.

Such a mountain forest is destined to not have any large prey in it, especially ferocious birds and beasts, which will not live near humans.

But no matter what, Lin He hasn't been up the mountain for a long time. Looking at the things Li Changhui brought, she knows that she will have a picnic or barbecue on the mountain today. She hasn't eaten barbecue for a long time.

There are no fun activities in this era. She lived in the county for a month, and what she heard the most was flower appreciation and outings. Xie Jiang's wife even invited her once, a group of rich ladies and wives, to go out for an outing together. flower.

When Lin He heard that it was a group of rich wives, his head grew dizzy, and he hastily rejected Mrs. Xie's invitation.

She knew that Mrs. Xie was the same as Xie Jiang. In order to be able to buy meat and vegetables at their house in the future, she made a special gesture of favor, so she sent the invitation card. It was probably meant to introduce her to other wives.

But Lin He knew very well that a little woman like her doing farm work would definitely not be able to blend into that atmosphere, so she could only thank Mrs. Xie for her kindness.

She still prefers the unrestrained feeling in the mountains and fields. She can run when she wants to, and shout when she wants to. No one will laugh at her for not knowing etiquette, and no one will want to change her and restrain her.

"I've heard people say that there are wild goats on this mountain. If you encounter one, you can hunt one and go back to feed the workers."

As for themselves, a leg of lamb is basically enough, and they will take another leg home for their children.

Li Changhui looked at the surrounding environment while protecting Lin He up the mountain.

After all, this is an unfamiliar forest. He has been here once before, but he only walked around the area, so he is not very familiar with it.

I took Lin He up the mountain today because I saw that she was a bit bored recently, so I took her here to relax.

Sure enough, when Lin He heard about the wild goat, his eyes straightened instantly: "There really are wild goats. If we meet them, can we catch them alive?"

Li Changhui thought for a moment: "Yes, but there is no guarantee that you won't get hurt."

It is not an easy task to directly capture a wild goat alive, still in the mountains, on their own territory.

But it's much easier if you injure its leg ahead of time.

Lin He understood in seconds: "That's no problem, as long as it's not a fatal injury!"

Farm cattle can't be eaten, so Lin He put his idea on goats, but they don't seem to have the habit of raising sheep in this area, at least she hadn't heard of it when she was in Yonghe Town.

Speaking of which, she had asked Xie Jiang about it before, but in the end it was nothing.

Thinking of this, Lin He suddenly realized.

"No, if there are no sheep in Nanzhi County, then how do others know what a wild goat is? Also, you must have heard the wild goat from the workers. Since they all know each other, it makes no sense that Xie Jiang can't handle it." Come on sheep!"

The more Lin He thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

"Besides, their family doesn't have connections in Guanzhou Prefecture. It can't be that the entire Guanzhou Prefecture does not have a sheep raiser? Besides, even if there is no Guanzhou Prefecture, there are so many businessmen who come and go in Guanzhou Prefecture. It’s only right to get a sheep.”

However, she has been talking to Xie Jiang about this for two years, and there is no news until now?
It's not that she doesn't give money, the harder it is to get something, the higher the price, Xie Jiang has no reason not to do it.

Li Changhui also understood what Lin He meant, but he was even more curious: "Did you tell Xie Jiang about wanting a sheep?"

Lin He nodded vigorously: "Yes, I told him about it two years ago."

Immediately Lin He realized something was wrong, and quickly asked Li Changhui: "You don't know?"

Li Changhui shook his head honestly: "I haven't heard you say that if you want to raise sheep, you can buy them in the market. I also saw someone selling lambs yesterday. There are several of them."

Lin He's eyes widened even more: "What? How did Xie Jiang get us to Yonghe Town? Don't we think we won't pay?"

Li Changhui shook his head: "What are you thinking? I think he might have forgotten."

Xie Jiang has been helping them search for all kinds of things outside, especially there are a lot of dried seafood at home, all of which were brought back by Xie Jiang's help. Many things are not available in the county, so they must be from the Guanzhou government.

Lin He blinked: "Forgot?"

"Maybe yes. Next time we meet and ask, we'll find out. Sheep are not a rare thing, but there are no ones in Yonghe Town, so it's not like they deliberately didn't bring them back."

Lin He was convinced that this might indeed be bigger.

"Then let's go to the market tomorrow? There aren't many vines left, and all of them should be delivered in a few days. Then we can start to build a pigsty, and then we'll build a shed to raise sheep, but If I encounter wild goats, I still want to catch a few and bring them back."

Goat milk is a good thing. It can nourish the health of several children. The children in the family are at the stage of half-old sons eating poor old men. They dare not stop eggs and meat every day.

What's more, the three brothers are all studying hard and earnestly, so the daily consumption is even greater. If they can have a bowl of goat's milk every morning and evening, they can also supplement some nutrition.

Of course, she and Li Changhui can't be ignored either. Li Changhui will be thirty soon, and she herself is in a frail physical condition. Drinking some goat's milk is of course beneficial and harmless.

This is why Lin He suddenly wanted to raise sheep.

In fact, she would rather raise cattle, but now there are no dairy cows, only farming cattle, and farming cattle are divided into buffalo and yellow cattle. She remembered that there seemed to be a brand called buffalo milk in her previous life, and the price was more expensive.

It's a pity that these days, farm cattle can't be raised if they want to, mainly because there are not so many.

Thinking of this, Lin He suddenly rubbed his chin, this is already in the county seat, so there must be more supply, right?
In addition to vines, if their family buys more land to plant crops, there is a reason to buy a few more cattle. At that time, they will carefully select, buy a bull, and buy a few more cows. It is not impossible to reproduce by themselves. The herd.

Thinking of this, Lin He suddenly became excited, and forgot about playing, quickly grabbed Li Changhui, talked to him about his idea with great interest, and asked him about the feasibility of this idea.
