Meng Yuqing asked curiously, "You've been with me since you came back. Where did you hear these things?"
"In the morning, when you were still sleeping, I went out. When I came back, you were still asleep, so I lay down with you again." Xuan said.
Hearing Xuan say this, Meng Yuqing couldn't help but wonder, was she sleeping so soundly that she didn't even notice Xuan went out and came back?
"Come to think of it, although the pigs in your place are all pigs, why are there such big differences in the personalities between sows and boars? The boars are so aggressive that the sows were so scared before that they dared not move." Xuan frowned as he thought of the four unruly boars.
Those guys almost made him look bad in front of Yu Qing.
"Boars love to fight, so we usually only keep a few as breeding pigs, and the rest will be castrated." Having said this, Meng Yuqing paused, as if he had forgotten something very important.
"Xuan...I seem to have forgotten to tell you something about the pig." Meng Yuqing looked at Xuan with a heavy expression.
"What's the matter?" Xuan asked hurriedly when he saw his expression.
"The little boar needs to be castrated about seven days after birth." Meng Yuqing said to Xuan.
"Castrate?" Xuan tilted his head, not quite understanding the meaning of the word. Meng Yuqing had never mentioned this word when she taught him Chinese.
Meng Yuqing: "It means cutting off the balls..."
Xuan was even more confused, "Balls? Boars have balls?"
Meng Yuqing looked at Xuan, who had a confused look on his face, stretched out a finger, and slowly pointed down at Xuan's brother.
He saw Xuan's eyes follow his finger down, and then his expression changed from confusion to horror.
Obviously he understood what Meng Yuqing meant.
It was the first time that Meng Yuqing saw Xuan show such an expression.
Xuan should have laughed at it, but he couldn't laugh now.
"Can I not cut it off?" Xuan asked struggling.
This kind of thing was so creepy that even though he knew no one was attacking him, he still felt creepy all over.
Meng Yuqing also felt a chill run down his spine, but for the sake of the tribe's breeding business, he explained, "Uncastrated boars won't grow very fat, and they'll be very aggressive. When they reach adulthood and enter estrus, they'll fight like crazy.
Moreover, the meat of uncastrated boars has a fishy smell.
I don't know if you orcs can get used to it, but sub-beasts probably won't like the taste."
"I'm not afraid of fighting, and they didn't say the piglets tasted strange when they ate them before." Xuan said without giving up.
Meng Yuqing continued, "They may have eaten young female pigs, or the young boars may have been too young.
But if they are not castrated, they will definitely taste terrible when they grow up.
People in our area can't eat it at all and will vomit directly, so they grow weight very slowly.
They are still some time away from adulthood, so it is not too late to castrate them now.
Sows that are specifically used for giving birth should also be taken out separately. Try not to eat their meat as it tastes very bad.
Sows that have not given birth can eat normally.
Anyway, just separate the ones used for reproduction from those used for eating."
Xuan looked at Meng Yuqing for a long moment before he said with a heavy face, "I understand. I'll tell my father about all this when I ask for leave later."
Meng Yuqing also nodded, and the two of them found Xia with gloomy faces.
When Xia Yi saw their expressions, he thought something big had happened.
Even Yang and Lan, who were reporting something to Xia, looked over with serious expressions.
After the two of them talked about the chicken and duck eggs, Xia nodded and said, "We also discovered that a flying orc said that he thought there were two kinds of eggs laid later.
They found that one type of egg should be able to produce offspring, while the other type was dead, so we packed them separately.
But for some reason, few of the livestock could hatch eggs, so those that could produce pups had to be hatched by the flying orcs for the time being. However, there were not many of them, so they took turns.
I originally wanted to wait for you to come back and ask you how you would solve it, but now is the perfect time, so I’ll do as you say.”
After finishing the conversation about the chickens and ducks and successfully requesting leave, Xuan and Meng Yuqing looked at each other, and then looked at Xia together.
"Anything else?" Xia felt creepy when he was looked at.
"About the Snorlax."
Meng Yuqing gritted his teeth and told Xia again about the pig slaughtering.
After he finished speaking, he raised his head and glanced at Xia.
Xia had a cracked expression on his face, and Lan also had his eyes wide open with an incredible look on his face.
Yang's expression was better than theirs, but he wasn't very calm either.
It took a long time for Xia to find his voice again.
"Then act quickly. Select the strongest ones to stay, and do as you say with the others."
After saying this, he turned to look at Lan and Yang behind him, "Who will be responsible for this?"
Lan and Yang were seen shaking their heads and waving their hands frantically.
Greed: "I have to lead the hunting team, so I may not have time to keep an eye on this matter."
Yang: "The Shirakuramon has been running around everywhere lately. I have to keep an eye on it."
This was the first time that two model workers rejected something so unanimously.
Xia was helpless and looked at Xuan again. Xuan's head was already lowered to his chest and he didn't even meet Xia's eyes.
Finally, Meng Yuqing took a deep breath and stepped forward, "Let me do it."
Suddenly, the eyes of the four orcs all fell on Meng Yuqing. After looking at Meng Yuqing for a while, Lan and Yang looked at Xuan with complicated eyes.
"None of you have done this kind of thing. Although I haven't done it, I have seen it. Let me demonstrate first. But it's better to call more people over to learn. With so many Snorlax, I may not be able to handle it all by myself." Meng Yuqing rubbed his face and said.
Xia looked at Meng Yuqing for a moment, then did the same for Xuan, then said, "Okay, when do we start?"
"Let's do it tomorrow."
Finish it early and go on vacation early, Meng Yuqing comforted herself.
After transforming into beast form and taking Meng Yuqing home, the two quickly prepared the tools for pig slaughtering. After all, these piglets had been born for several months and could not be delayed any longer. There was no point in waiting until they grew up to slaughter them.
