The next day, Shen Siyue and Shitou set out early as usual.
Shi Tou, who had thought he would not catch anything today, was pleasantly surprised to find that he had caught four more rabbits out of the six or seven traps he had set.
One of them was still alive and struggling.
He looked at the four rabbits in disbelief, thinking that the scene before him was an illusion: "This is really strange."
Never before had so many rabbits been caught as in these two times.
If the first time was all luck, what about this time?
Or just good luck?
But when I was lucky in the past, I could only get two or three in a month.
If you are unlucky, you may not be able to catch one in the entire winter.
Not to mention catching several rabbits every time, if there was even a small harvest every time, people from nearby villages would have come to trap rabbits in droves.
Shitou thought again, could it be that there are too many rabbits giving birth recently?
Even Shitou, who has always been a hard-working person, couldn't help but sigh that if they could continue like this, would he and Shen Siyue become rich?
No matter how Shitou doubted the world, Shen Siyue was truly happy from the bottom of her heart.
This time, he didn't need help. After untying the rabbit, Shen Siyue restored the noose by herself.
Then looking at the still-living rabbit, Shen Siyue had a bold idea: “Can this one be raised secretly?”
If we could raise them at home, we wouldn't have to go through so much trouble trekking through the mountains.
Moreover, rabbits have a fast reproduction capacity. Generally, a rabbit can give birth to more baby rabbits when it is six months old.
Generally, with a gestation period of about 2 months and a lactation period of one month, a rabbit can produce at least 4 litters a year.
There are usually 4 to 6 kittens in a litter.
By this calculation, one rabbit can produce 16 to 24 rabbits in one year.
If I had a few more...
The more Shen Siyue thought about it, the more excited she became.
But Shitou poured cold water on her: "No, if someone finds out, you'll be charged with speculation. At the very least, your illegal gains will be confiscated, and at the worst, you'll go to jail."
Almost everything is now planned.
You need to have tickets to buy general daily necessities!
It is not allowed for private individuals to keep any living creatures other than those planned.
Each household is only allowed to raise two chickens, or the whole family can work together to raise a pig.
Rabbits were definitely not part of the plan.
Shen Siyue, whose soul is in the 21st century, feels a little constrained by the current policies.
If her new home didn't even have a fence, she really wanted to take the rabbit home and raise it herself.
Anyway, she doesn't have many relatives or friends in this village, and probably no one will visit her house.
If you are lucky enough not to be discovered, then you will have made a profit.
Shitou saw Chen Siyue's eyes rolling around as she stared at the rabbit, and he knew that she was planning to take advantage of it.
But it was in vain for her to think about it.
The Shen family definitely can’t do that.
If she dared to raise one, she would definitely not be able to hide it from the other members of the Shen family.
The new house is even worse. It doesn't even have a wall. Now anyone can take a look inside that roofless house.
But even so, it did not discourage April from wanting to raise rabbits.
She tied the live rabbit's legs and feet and threw it into her basket.
Then he said to the stone: "I want this live rabbit, and the others are yours!"
How could Shitou take advantage of her? He had to give her another one and insisted that they share it equally.
But Shen Siyue didn't agree anyway.
If she wasn't afraid of encountering large animals like wolves, blind bears or wild boars, Shen Siyue would have wanted to go to the mountains by herself.
Asking Shitou to join him is also to add insurance for his own life and to have him as a bodyguard.
Since you want to come again in the future, you can't just point to stones for everything.
Shen Siyue then chose a few places and started setting traps.
He also chose a place that he thought was a good feng shui location, and used a small pickaxe brought by Shi to dig a trap.
After all, the money he got from the wild boar he caught last time was too tempting.
The price of so many rabbits and pheasant meat is only about a quarter of that of wild boar meat.
If I could get another one...
Then she would immediately become one of the biggest depositors in the village.
Hahaha! ! !
Thinking about that scene, Shen Siyue couldn't help but laugh.
Shitou was standing nearby, watching Shen Siyue digging the hole in confusion. Suddenly, she burst into laughter, and no one knew what happy thing she was thinking about.
Shitou actually didn't feel optimistic at all about the hole she was digging.
This place is close to the outer mountains and there are almost no wild boars coming here, so he felt it would be useless to dig.
He told her his idea, but Shen Siyue still wanted to try it.
When Shen Siyue started, she was full of confidence, thinking, isn't it just digging a hole? What's so difficult about it?
The result was that reality taught her a big lesson.
In just a moment, her arms were numb and painful from the shock of the hard ground.
No wonder there were only two pit traps set by Stone.
She also thought, if she dug more of these things, wouldn't the chance of catching large prey be greater?
I didn't expect it to be so difficult to dig. When I put my head down, it felt like hitting ice.
When Shitou wanted to help at first, she said shamelessly that she could do it herself, but now she was really embarrassed.
When Shi Tou saw that she had torn off the scarf on her face and was panting from swinging the pickaxe, he knew that she was tired.
This is not a job that women can do.
