Lin Jinyue's family transmigrated. Their journey began in 'hell mode,' with a three-year drought coupled with war. On the escape route, her mother and brother fell unconscious, and Lin ...
Lin Jinyue was so amused by her father that she couldn't stop smiling.
She was still small, just over nine years old, and very skinny.
Her father simply held her on his neck and took her around the farm like he did when they were little.
Lin Jinyue suddenly felt that her vision improved a lot.
She must grow taller!
Drink more milk!
Lin Jinyue sat on her father's neck and saw a vacant space in the corner, surrounded by a simple fence.
It was full of chicks.
It was also because Lin Jinyue got excited at that time that she hatched all the eggs that she had saved for a long time with just one click.
She thought that the farm was big and raising a few chicks would be easy.
But what she didn't expect was that the hatching rate of the chicks was 100%, and the time flow rate in the space was five times that outside. These chicks have grown a lot.
It can be used to make young chickens.
Lin Jinyue thought: "More than 200 chickens... Let's give 10 to each household and say that they were bought with the money from my business these days."
If you don't deal with it now, you won't have anywhere to put your feet on this chicken.
She also wanted to quickly take care of the chickens and plant medicinal herbs on them all.
However, in order to avoid being warned by the emperor, Lin Jinyue went to Shawan County with her father the next day to inquire about the price of chicks.
The profit from selling snails has been quite good these days, and I basically earn more than ten taels of silver every day.
She went to ask about the price of the chicks.
I asked several stores and they said there were about 15 to 20 chicks per chick, which were newly hatched chicks.
Lin Jinyue thought of the young chickens in the space.
The village had only forty taels of public money left, and assuming that one young chicken cost thirty taels, he could buy one hundred and thirty chickens.
After Lin Jinyue calculated the bill, she did not buy chickens, but bought a lot of cages.
It was made of bamboo strips. Sitting on the boat, Lin Jinyue took out all the chicks, a little worried that they were not enough.
Lin Jinyue went to the space and stacked more than 200 chickens in the chicken cages. Only a few were left on the farm. She felt it was not enough and wanted to build a large breeding farm. Only when she was almost at Yunhe Village did she dare to take the chicks out.
She was afraid that the little chicks would not be able to hold on and die.
When Lin Jinyue and the others returned, they couldn't even carry more than two hundred chickens.
She stood by the boat and yelled at the top of her voice: "Uncle Fugui, Brother Goudan! Hurry up and call for help!"
She was really afraid that the chick inside would suffocate to death.
But apart from this method, there is no other way to get the chicks here.
After she yelled like that, many people came from the village.
When the villagers saw so many chickens, they were all shocked.
Lin Youcai was stunned: "Erya, where did you get so many chickens?"
Lin Jinyue: "I bought it because it was cheaper in town. The money in the village, plus the cows, was basically all gone. We bought some with our own money."
There were seven cages in total. Lin Jinyue took three of them. The remaining four she said to Lin Fugui, "Uncle Fugui, there are 40 taels of silver left in the village, and 130 chickens. You can calculate it based on the number of people. The remaining two baskets were bought with the money from my family."
Lin Fugui was stunned: "Ah, divide it by the number of people? No, we can't always take advantage of it..."
Lin Jinyue smiled and said, "What's the point of taking advantage? In the future, the money in the village's public account will be used to buy things for everyone, such as building roads and ships. It's just too far away, so let's buy some chickens and ducks now."
Lin Jinyue suddenly had an idea and said to them, "I'll draw a blueprint. We need to put these chickens somewhere first. We need to build the chicken coop."
Regarding the chicken coop, Lin Jinyue thought it would be best to gather them together.
This way, you only need to simply collect chicken droppings at a fixed location every day.
The chicken manure can also be used as fertilizer, and there are enough chickens to provide enough fertilizer.
With so many chickens, Lin Jinyue was not worried about not being able to finish them. She also planned to start a food business in the future.
In just a few moments, Lin Jinyue had hundreds of ways to cook chicken in her mind: fried chicken, braised chicken, roasted chicken, lemon chicken feet, mushroom stewed chicken, spicy chicken…
Lin Jinyue still thinks these chickens are not enough.
Lin Jinyue simply drew a blueprint. She planned to use bamboo to build a simple chicken coop.
The chicken coop is not too big, and there is a fence in the middle to separate the chickens. Each family has a grid, and a wooden sign is hung on the door of the grid with the name of the family written on it.
This way the eggs that come later won't get mixed up.
Lin Jinyue also said to them: "These will be your private property from now on. Those who are willing to keep them can continue to keep them. Those who don't want to keep them can sell them to do other things."
Everyone now says that they are definitely reluctant to sell it and want to keep it themselves.
Lin Jinyue just smiled and said that they would not necessarily waste their time on raising chickens if there were more profitable jobs in the future.
Her ideal situation is to have a large-scale chicken farmer in the village who can provide her with a constant supply of chicken.
Of course, everyone is still poor now, and it is even more impossible for them to engage in breeding as they can’t even feed themselves.
After Lin Jinyue handed the drawings to Lin Fugui, the strong young man in the village built a simple chicken coop in just one afternoon.
Lin Jinyue thought about it and decided to arrange someone to clean up the chicken coop.
The main thing is to sweep the chicken coop every morning and evening, and collect the feces for composting.
Compared to farming, this is an easy job and many people are rushing to do it.
A few days later, Lin Jinyue watched the little chicks grow up one by one, and the hens began to sit on their nests.
The entire Yunhe Village seems to be thriving.
Everyone always has a smile on their face.
Magistrate Yu also came at this time. He looked at the scene of Yunhe Village and found that it had undergone a tremendous change compared to the simple and embarrassing scene when he first came here half a month ago.
What were they doing half a month ago?
It seemed that he was still arguing with Chen Dawei about the land issue and was about to be kicked out of Yunhe Village at any time.
Look at them, everyone is ready to do this.
Looking at the conspicuous chicken coop, Lu Ruiming couldn't help but ask, "Why is the chicken coop built like that?
Lin Jinyue explained: "It's like this. We found that most of the reclaimed land is not suitable for planting, so I thought that adding fertilizer to improve the land can increase the yield of some crops."
The county magistrate was surprised, "You can make fertilizer?"
The county magistrate had only heard that some people in the capital city applied fertilizers to their fields and that the yield of crops would increase, but he had never seen it before.
Lin Jinyue said, "Yes, I saw it in the agricultural book. Uncle County Magistrate, come and have a look!"
Lin Jinyue took him to the experimental field of radish. The half of the radish that had been treated with chemical fertilizers grew obviously faster than the other half, and their leaves were also denser. The other half seemed to be malnourished.
The contrast is particularly obvious when put together.
After seeing this comparison, Magistrate of the County of Ji felt even more that chemical fertilizers were magical.
He stared at Lin Jinyue with burning eyes: "Can you teach me how to make fertilizer? I want to promote fertilizer, so that the food problem in Lingnan can be solved."
