Although Qin Suyun lived in the village when she was a child, she had never bought pigs directly from the farm and had no idea that she would encounter such a scene!

She originally thought that what the farm owner meant by "processing" was helping to divide the meat, or at least helping to cut the pigs and cows into several large pieces.

However, when she arrived at the farm, she found out that what the farm owner meant by "dealing with it" was to find someone to help transport the livestock to a professional slaughterhouse in the city, kill them, and then bring them back to her.

Qin Suyun stared at the three cows and two pigs that had only been roughly shaved and their internal organs removed, and were then placed intact on the table. She almost didn't know what expression she should use to face the farm owner.

The meat was indeed good. She had picked it herself yesterday, but with three such large pieces of meat placed in front of her, she was at a loss as to what to do.

Where did she get the strength to chop off such thick pig and cow bones?

She had to use various tools and drag and pull to collect the supplies she bought on a daily basis. Where would she find the strength to chop these things down now?

According to Qin Suyun's previous idea, after buying these things home, she only needed to wash them, cut them up slightly, marinate them with salt, smoke them into bacon, vacuum-pack them, and put them in the basement or refrigerator.

It was a very cold season now, and it was a good time to smoke bacon. She had already bought a lot of firewood from the village chief.

Nowadays, many people in the village like to use coal for convenience, but there are also many people who go to the mountains to chop firewood. For example, Wanxi Village is backed by several mountains, and the roads in the village were difficult to walk on before. The village was poor, so many people like to go up the mountain to chop firewood, so it is not troublesome for her to buy it.

Even some villagers, upon hearing that she wanted to buy firewood, expressed their willingness to sell her their own wood and go back to the mountains to chop it. Their village had plenty of firewood, as they had everything.

But she has firewood, a cellar, and even a vacuum packaging machine bought online a long time ago, but what should she do with the meat?

Qin Suyun felt a headache just thinking about it. She had no choice but to ask the farm owner for help. "Boss, can you help me cut up this meat? I bought it to take home and smoke it. Can you help me cut it into strips?"

"Sure! It's no problem to help with it. There is a butcher living next to our slaughterhouse. I'll call him over for you. It will cost about 500 yuan to process these. If you want, I can call him over for you. Don't think the price is too high. It only cost 50 yuan to process a pig and 180 yuan to process a cow, but the price of pork has increased so much now, and they have to raise the price to do business. If you can give me another 100 yuan, I can call his wife over and let her help you clean all the internal organs. You just wait here." The farm owner looked at Qin Suyun with a smile, and the corners of his mouth raised like an old fox.

He knew this would happen yesterday, so he told Zhang the butcher next door last night to wait at home. Butcher Zhang's wife worked on their farm, so he had to take care of her.

"Okay, then you can ask the couple to help me deal with it." Qin Suyun sighed, thinking that it was the right thing to do to raise small fragrant pigs at home after she made up her mind before. Small fragrant pigs usually weigh about 60 to 80 kilograms when they are raised to eat meat. Compared with the pig in front of her that weighs more than 300 kilograms, it is really a small thing.

Zhang the Butcher and his wife arrived quickly, their hands and feet nimble, and it was obvious they had done this kind of work often before. Butcher Zhang spoke to Qin Suyun and asked her approximately how big she wanted each piece of bacon. After deciding how to cut it, he took the knives he had brought with him and quickly cleaned up the two pigs and the cow.

Qin Suyun stood aside and watched Butcher Zhang wielding the bone-chopping knife weighing several kilograms. With a few strokes, he chopped the whole pig in half with such ferocious force. She thought to herself that she had not practiced enough recently.

She also needs to go to the grocery store to buy a few more knives, such as pig-killing knives, boning knives, and boning knives, so that she can cope with the subsequent work of slaughtering pigs in the future.

When collecting supplies before, Qin Suyun had never thought that slaughtering pigs would be so troublesome. She thought that the knives at home would be enough. The knives she had prepared at home were also very solid and practical. But now it seems that those knives are not suitable for slaughtering pigs and chopping meat.

When I was collecting supplies before, my focus when buying weapons was not on knives, but on bows and crossbows that could attack from a distance!

When she was buying supplies, she was indeed thinking about buying more decent weapons.

However, the entire country of China has very strict control over weapons, especially firearms. Even the omnipotent online shopping mall could not help her. The only things she could buy online were hunting bows and crossbows with extremely limited lethality, as well as short knives, steel sticks and the like.

Even the hatchets that were slightly longer, bigger, and sharper were not available in the online shopping mall. Those things were not as practical as those she bought directly from the grocery store in town.

It is also because it is inconvenient to purchase swords, guns and other weapons.

All she could find were bows and arrows, crossbows, and the like. These things were easy to buy, relatively cheap, and could also be used for long-range attacks.

In addition, this thing is not like food. It has continued to grow rapidly in price during this period, and the price is still about the same as before, so she bought more than a dozen bows and crossbows at one time, with different sizes and weights. As for consumables such as feather arrows, Qin Suyun even bought three boxes of metal feather arrows, three boxes of arrow tails and three boxes of various models of metal arrowheads for replacement.

This was the only store Qin Suyun had found online after searching for a long time that sold opened metal arrows.

What Qin Suyun didn't know was that, although they were selling arrowheads, when Qin Suyun bought so many at once, the shop owner on the other end of the computer almost didn't dare to ship the goods, for fear that it would accidentally make some news reports. Wouldn't his shop be finished then?

But in the end, the lure of money overcame his fear, and the shop owner sent the goods directly to Qin Suyun. Fortunately, after more than a month, the shop owner still hadn't seen any reports on the online news media about someone using a bow and arrow to kill someone, so he slowly breathed a sigh of relief and completely put his mind at ease. As long as the other party didn't use these items to kill, set fire, or rob, it was none of his business. The owner immediately put the matter behind him and continued to happily run his own online store for outdoor protection products.

Butcher Zhang was very quick and it took him less than 50 minutes to butcher two pigs and a cow.

This was mainly because the cow was too heavy, even heavier than four pigs. Butcher Zhang cut the pork and beef into pieces deftly and packed them in plastic bags that had been prepared on the side. On the other side, Butcher Zhang's wife also quickly cleaned out the internal organs.

Qin Suyun nodded with satisfaction and handed 600 yuan to the couple. Although the price was not cheap, it was definitely much faster than if she had handled it herself.

After paying the balance to the farm owner, he asked someone to help load these things onto the truck.

Qin Suyun smiled and talked to the farm owner about buying more mini pigs, hoping that the owner could help her sell another 20 from the next city.

If business comes, the farm owner will naturally not refuse.

Although he was very curious about why the woman in front of him had just bought his 17 little pigs and wanted to buy some piglets.

But it doesn't matter. No matter whether the man in front of him plans to eat or feed the piglets, he just wants to make money.

The farm owner and Qin Suyun agreed that the price of each castrated piglet was 1,200 yuan. Three days later, when someone shipped goods to them from the next city, they would ask someone to help ship them over and they could come and pick them up then.

The total cost of 20 little pigs plus shipping fee was 25,000 yuan. Qin Suyun paid a deposit of 5,000 yuan first and took the order slip.

Qin Suyun drove back directly. It takes about 3 to 4 months to raise these little pigs from the time they are bought to the time they are sold.

During this period, the cats and dogs at home must have grown a lot, and they must eat a lot of meat every day. Qin Suyun plans to keep these batch of small pigs for herself and a group of furry children.

The only thing at home that gave her a headache was black beans.

As a cat, Hei Dou's favorite food is fish, which is a bit different from Qin Suyun's diet of pork and beef.

But as a good owner, Qin Suyun felt that she should still fulfill Hei Dou's wish to eat fish in the future.

It is very easy to raise fish and shrimp, and it is not as troublesome as raising livestock. The only thing that bothers Qin Suyun is where to raise these fish and shrimp?

A one-acre fish pond can usually produce about 7,000 kilograms of fish a year, but if you want a small fish pond that can provide her with a steady supply of fish and shrimp, it must be at least 20 to 30 square meters.

However, it is not appropriate to build such a large fish pond indoors. Unless a small pond is dug in the front yard, it is really difficult to do so.

She originally planned to dig a fish pond directly in the front yard, and let Luo Dahai dig it directly with reinforced concrete according to the standards of building a house. However, before the fish pond was dug, Qin Suyun began to worry about what would happen next. It was a good thing that the fish pond was built outdoors and would not be damaged by an earthquake.

But when we encounter summers with temperatures as high as 40 or 50 degrees Celsius, and winters with temperatures dropping to minus 40 or 50 degrees Celsius in an instant, how can the fish in the fish pond survive?

Not to mention a summer or a winter, the fish in the pond will be finished in just a week!

After all... this fish pond of twenty to thirty square meters is not small for her, but it is not enough for the hot summer and cold winter. The little water in the fish pond can easily evaporate or freeze into ice.

So she thought about it over and over again and started to re-plan.

She searched the Internet for a long time before she found a solution.

Qin Suyun ordered 30 folding fish ponds online at one go. These were leak-proof folding fish ponds made of plastic-coated canvas.

It is said that this kind of fish pond can be used for more than ten years without any problem, just like the simple swimming pools in foreign countries that can be placed in family courtyards for fun. With this thing, she no longer needs to worry about extreme weather in the future, and she can place the fish pond directly at home.

A large fish pond that is three meters long, two meters wide, and one and a half meters high can accommodate two fish in one room.

Qin Suyun placed four such large folding fish ponds in the two rooms on the left side of the first floor, waiting to put the fish and shrimp fry she bought in a few days. She had already planned to raise fish in three and shrimp in one.

In daily fish pond farming, many villagers buy fish fry directly from others, raise them and then sell them to make money.

After all, many of the fish we eat on a daily basis are migratory fish. Without specific conditions, they will not lay eggs and reproduce the next generation.

It is a very troublesome task to let these migratory fish reproduce the next generation locally. It requires a huge project. Ordinary fish farmers cannot perform such a complicated process. Therefore, most fish farmers directly buy fish fry and raise them in fish ponds.

Qin Suyun knew what would happen in the future and how difficult it would be to buy fish fry. Naturally, she wouldn't choose fish species that couldn't reproduce on their own. She chose carp, crucian carp, whitebait, silver carp, and bighead carp that could be bred directly in the pond. Shrimp weren't as troublesome; as long as there were male and female shrimp, they could be bred anywhere.
