If we donate everything directly, the people in the group will definitely have objections.
It wasn't that the members of the Red Flag Brigade were cold-blooded; it was just that everyone was having a hard time.
Hao Jianshe nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Well, it's not time yet, so let's not talk about it for now."
"When the time comes, if the pigs at your pig farm are ready for market, we'll think of something else."
Gu Yunyang had a sudden inspiration and said, "We can provide meat, which is something everyone is short of."
Without tickets, people can't buy meat.
Secretary Hao, do you think that we provide meat and the commune buys it at a low price?
Then give it to other brigades, let them exchange it for grain, and then send it up again. What do you think?
Hao Jianshe was taken aback; Gu Yunyang's suggestion was quite good.
How much pork does your pig farm produce?
At most, a pig yields a little over 100 jin (50 kg) of meat.
Black pigs are not very big to begin with; even when they grow to adulthood, they weigh around 200 jin (100 kg).
After removing the bones, offal, and pig's head, you'd be lucky to get 60% of the desired quality.
Gu Yunyang smiled and said, "Secretary Hao, don't worry. To support the commune's construction, our Hongqi Brigade plans to raise a batch of piglets every month after we go back."
Currently, our pig farm has ten pigs, all of which have grown to over 50 kilograms.
Next, we feed them more feed, and they can grow to about two and a half pounds, or even three pounds a day.
It is expected that by the end of November, it will have grown to about 180 jin (approximately 44 kg), at which point it will be ready for market.
It was estimated to weigh 180 jin (54 kg), but the pigs in the Hongqi Brigade were carefully raised, and Gu Yunyang fed them specially formulated feed.
With his own beast-taming ability, he is expected to grow to 200 pounds.
If you calculate it this way, it will only take eight months before they are ready for market.
Hao Jianshe was somewhat surprised: "Really?"
Gu Yunyang nodded, reassuring Hao Jianshe: "Secretary Hao, you are welcome to come and take a look. Next, we will expand the scale of the pig farm, and we also plan to breed black pigs, striving to develop a fast-growing black pig breed."
Gu Yunyang genuinely felt that black pork tasted better than white pork.
It would be even better if we could find a miniature pig.
That tastes even better.
Unfortunately, there is no opportunity for that at the moment.
Gu Yunyang painted a bright future here.
But for a commune, one pound of meat could be exchanged for ten pounds of coarse grains.
Ten pigs, even if they weigh 1,500 jin, would only amount to a little over 10,000 jin of grain.
It's not a big deal in terms of quantity.
However, in the face of disaster, having more food is always a good thing.
Let alone more than 10,000 jin?
Furthermore, Gu Yunyang said that he would raise a new batch every month from now on.
The drought is still ongoing, but at least they can provide a batch of food every month, which is not bad.
If you can get 10,000 jin a month, you'll get 100,000 jin a year.
That's already quite a lot.
In addition, if ten pigs can be provided each month, it will also provide a lot of meat for Baishi Commune, which is a benefit.
"Okay, then go ahead and do it."
Hearing Hao Jianshe say that, Gu Yunyang breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, the current situation doesn't allow for doing business.
Even in collective pig farms, sometimes people get jealous and things can go wrong.
Now, by taking advantage of this incident, the pig farm of the Red Flag Brigade has been officially recognized by the commune.
In addition, in the past two years, it has brought a lot of grain to Baishi Commune every year, which can be sent to the Central Plains.
It can save many people.
It will also bring a lot of glory to the Red Flag Brigade and Gu Yunyang.
In a few years, these can be worn as protective gear, used to ward off malicious people, and even saved lives.
"Don't worry, Secretary Hao, I will definitely do my job well."
