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

Chapter 566 566 Don’t compete with the poor for food rations

Lin He nodded and said nothing, but he already had concerns in his heart.

The two walked around the area and looked at the pond. There were only a dozen people working at the moment.

The pond area is not large. In order to save space, we dig straight up and down. Then we will use stones to build a circle around the pond, just like building a house. Only a six-foot-wide area is left, which is specially built up and down. steps.

Not only that, there is a guardrail at the top, which is made of the same square stone about the thickness of a bucket, to prevent children from accidentally falling.

This can prevent the soil from collapsing and can also store more water. After all, hundreds of pigs, countless chickens, rabbits, and cows all need to drink water.

Ducks and geese are not as popular as chickens, and there is no river nearby, so Lin He is prepared to raise twenty or thirty of them each, and keep them in the pond. After the water is filled, he will throw in some small fry and water hyacinths. .

Water hyacinth grows very fast and may spread all over the pond if you are not careful. However, it can also be fed to pigs and chickens. It is also a good thing in rural areas. It is very popular like wild boar grass on the roadside.

Lin He was thinking about it in his mind, and he didn't forget to pay attention to the chicken pen. The chicks that had just been recovered were not raised directly, but were raised in the house first. Although it was a thatched house, it was very large.

Next to the outside of the thatched house, a thin and dense bamboo fence was specially built to surround the chickens. They would wait until the chicks grew up and became familiar with this place before they were released.

After all, the largest one is about the size of an adult man's fist. If you run out of these three to five acres, you won't be able to come back.

These are all naturally evolved breeds that have not been artificially cultivated. The adult chickens are not very big, much smaller than the broiler chickens Lin He had seen in his previous life.

Likewise, eggs are smaller.

Manager Yang had just sent away the last farmer and asked someone to take the chickens in the bamboo basket to the chicken coop.

He couldn't do it alone, so he asked someone to help. The tenant brought the chicken and put it in a bamboo basket. Manager Yang found the household based on the name.

How many eggs were hatched, how many chickens were successfully hatched, how many chickens were raised, and whether any died in infancy are all recorded.

When Lin He first heard this, his eyes almost popped out. Do you remember such details?
However, Manager Yang said that it had always been like this, so that we could know whether the tenants had any secrets.

Now, Manager Yang determined how many of them belonged to the owner's family based on the records. According to Lin He's requirements, if these chickens were raised well, they would be rewarded with a penny for each chicken.

The remaining chicks, which originally belonged to the tenants themselves, were charged at the previously set price.

Manager Yang was very busy checking and keeping accounts and giving money. The person he found specially was responsible for delivering the chickens in the bamboo basket to the chicken coop.

Seeing Lin He coming, Manager Yang, who had just finished his work, didn't even have time to take a breath and hurriedly came over to greet him.

"Madam, you are here. We collected a total of 180 nine chicks this morning. I have arranged for someone to take care of them."

Busy as he was, Manager Yang didn't complain at all, but was extremely happy.

Madam and Master have agreed that if you do better, in addition to monthly money, there will be additional rewards!

Last month, I received rewards ranging from five to ten taels of silver, depending on each manager's attitude!
Even in the capital, if you can get five taels of silver more per month, your life will be much better. New clothes for your wife and children at home, and a few more kilograms of meat, that's totally fine!
In this way, how can you not work hard?
"I can rest assured that you can do things, but I'm here to tell you something else."

Having said that, Lin He still walked towards Chicken Little. The young man who helped quickly bowed his hands and saluted. Lin He waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to be so polite.

The chickens were all alive and kicking. Some of them had been seen by Lin He once in the morning, but most of them were missing. After a few glances outside the fence, the spiritual power had actually passed.

The chicks were too young and the temperature had dropped recently. Lin He was worried that they would not adapt to the new location.Manager Yang followed behind and made sure that Lin He didn't show any dissatisfaction, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he heard Lin He say: "I think the pig pen is almost ready. You recently went to the nearby farmers who raise sows to make more trips and order some piglets in advance."

You actually have to be the manager to do this kind of thing yourself?
Although I thought so in my heart, I still responded seriously.

Lin He wanted to leave directly, but then he stopped when he thought of something.

"Manager Yang." His tone was much more serious than before.

Manager Yang was instantly respectful: "Madam?"

Lin He looked at him with a serious expression: "I have a good relationship with the princess. This is not a secret."

Manager Yang was a little confused and didn't understand the meaning of Lin He's words.

Then Lin He continued: "I asked you to go to a nearby farmer's house to have a look, but I don't insist that you buy it back immediately."

"I never like to bully others, and I don't want anyone to go behind my back and use my name to bully others."

Manager Yang understood the matter and listened respectfully, waiting for Lin He to finish.

"You go, if there is someone at home who has not decided to go out, you can make a decision and give a deposit in advance. When the time is up, just send someone to pick up the pig and settle the bill."

"If you have already made a reservation for someone else, you can just order a litter of piglets. Don't compete with the common people. Our Lin residence has abundant crops and there is no shortage of a few piglets."

What Lin He is worried about is that Manager Yang directly robs the people nearby for the purpose of work efficiency. Although he has to pay, but he robs other people's homes, how can others make money from this?
Lin He has not lived through those hard days so far, but the memory of the original owner is also profound.

Her Lin family is not short of food and drink, and they will not be short of food and drink for the people below. There is no need to compete with the common people for rations.

After hearing what Lin He said, Manager Yang was shocked and quickly said respectfully: "I've written it down, Madam, please don't worry."

He had indeed planned this before, and he could leave an impression on his masters that he could do things quickly and well.

Unexpectedly, it almost backfired.

Seeing that he had listened, Lin He smiled faintly: "That's why it was so troublesome in the beginning. When you go to order piglets, be sure to buy a dozen sows first, so that you can breed them at home later."

Manager Yang responded repeatedly. Lin He was sure that he had finished everything he needed to explain, and then he took Chuntao back.

After walking some distance, Chuntao suddenly said: "Madam, you are so kind. It would be great if there were kind and good people like you in the whole world."

Lin He was stunned, thinking that Chuntao might have been bullied in the past.

But she didn't ask further, just smiled: "I'm not very kind, I just don't like to do evil. As I said just now, there is no shortage of food and drink at home, not that much, so why bother competing with the poor for rations."

Chuntao shook her head: "It's different, madam. Many rich people don't care about the lives of poor people."

Lin He sighed softly and patted the back of her hand. This kind of thing was inevitable. She could only prevent herself from being the evil person. Others couldn't control it.
