Chapter 611 Feed Bugs
Why has it been on the mall for a long time and no one wants it? It means that either the price is too high or no one needs it in the current market.
Everyone will definitely fight for the good stuff. We can see how important materials are in the apocalypse today from today's transactions. Poultry that has always produced by-products through sustainable development is the most expensive, followed by some consumable luxury goods such as tobacco, alcohol, and tea, and then raw materials, etc. However, it can be seen that these are not necessities of food. What does this show? Think about it carefully.
While ducks were being sold at the trade fair, Jingshu shifted her gaze and first saw the picture, which was of a medium-sized machine.
Then he introduced the freeze dryer.
"Freeze dryer?" Jing Shu frowned and continued reading. "After using vacuum freeze drying, it can remove more than 95% to 99% of the moisture, allowing the dried product to be stored for a long time without deterioration. Because the drying is carried out under vacuum, there is very little oxygen, so some easily oxidized substances are protected."
"So..." Jingshu raised her head and looked at Tang Tuotu.
Director Tang nodded. "It can be used to make freeze-dried milk powder, freeze-dried meat, freeze-dried food, etc. It has a long shelf life and the substances will not denature or become inactive. It can also be freeze-dried and compressed."
Jingshu's mind gradually became clear. To be honest, she really needed this. For example, the cow at home gave birth to a calf recently, and the milk was so much... Even if she drank milk tea every day and made milk into milk skin, cheese, yogurt and other ancillary products, Jingshu still had the cows in the space, and she had saved a lot of milk.
I’m thinking of making it into milk powder next time.
Everything in the space can be kept fresh, but some things in the villa with high production capacity will easily spoil.
Although there are plenty of things now, there will definitely be shortages when the great migration comes. Fresh vegetables can be dried in Xishan City, but if there is freeze-drying technology, various freeze-dried vegetables can be made, and the range will be wider.
Jingshu looked at the price of the machine, which was a huge amount of three million trading coins. This trading currency was not a virtual currency, but an independent trading currency set by the trading club based on the market price. It was a currency that could only be used in the eighth-floor exchange.
"It's a bit expensive." Jing Shu looked at the things she had just bought. The original figure of 10 million was now only 10,000. She hadn't bought anything yet, so how could she have spent half of it? If she spent another 3 million, she wouldn't be able to buy anything.
You know, when she bought the land to build the factory, she only owed the town government a few million virtual coins. Although inflation has increased now...
Moreover, the weather is cold now, and people just put things outside to freeze into hard blocks for storage, so there is indeed less need for freeze-drying.
"However, this freeze-dried compression is really attractive. It can save a lot of space and can return to its original state after coming into contact with water. When the big migration comes next year, in addition to the space, we can carry a lot of supplies. Even if we add a two-story RV, it will definitely not be able to fit all the things..." Jingshu was a little conflicted.
Tang Tuotong stopped talking and began calculating again with a pen. Finally, he said, "If my predictions are correct, you'll buy it. I suggest you buy it. This is a complete set of equipment, and there aren't many left now. Although the temperature is getting lower and lower, more and more people prefer to store their food in this natural refrigerator, but no one knows what the next natural disaster will be."
Yes, a disaster every year seems to have become a rule, and no one knows what the next disaster will be. It is said that there are departments specializing in research and disaster prevention that are already making preparations to prevent being caught off guard again when encountering a new disaster. In fact, there were preparations for this mudslide, so they started to transport materials in the early stages of the mudslide and quickly cleared the affected areas.
It can be said that the Huaxia town government and people have strong adaptability and are now able to avoid disasters very well.
But there was another trigger that prompted Jingshu to buy the freeze-drying equipment at a sky-high price.
The auctions of each category go by very quickly, with each category taking about one or two minutes, leaving little time for people to think. As a result, many people bid impulsively, because after all, some things will be gone if you miss them.
The old hens and sows, which were already rare, were auctioned off for sky-high prices. These were not what Jing Shu was concerned about. After all,
There is already too much space, which is worrying.
But what caught Jingshu's eye was the feed.
The feed is not ordinary feed, otherwise Jingshu would not have taken a look at it. She has vegetable leaves, eggshells and various bones at home, and at most some home-grown grains. After all, the several tons of feed Jingshu bought before the end of the world have been almost eaten up, but Jingshu will not spend a high price to grab ordinary feed.
Yes, these feeds are live bugs.
Before the end of the world, Jingshu bought almost all the poultry and a lot of feed, but she forgot about the various feed insects, which are rich in protein.
Some breeders are now selling live insects, of course not at the price of feed before the apocalypse. These insects have also been classified as poultry and are under protection. If you want to keep poultry fat and white in the apocalypse when the survival rate of poultry is low, these high-protein insects are indispensable, at least to make the chickens lay more eggs.
Therefore, these live feed insects are much more expensive than the various freeze-dried meats that were a luxury before the apocalypse. Moreover, the boss is also a smart person. After breeding these insects, he sells them as breeding insects.
Looking at these plump, white, and colorful insects wriggling densely in the container, can you imagine that just one small insect is worth hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands?
"This handful, 100 grams, is high-quality barley worms. They have a varied diet, are adaptable, and are highly nutritious. Adding barley worms to fish, chicken, or any other poultry will definitely boost their nutritional value. Most importantly, they reproduce easily in this apocalyptic world, capable of continuously laying 600 to 1,000 eggs until they die. They can lay a batch every 10 days, and they mature in just a few dozen days."
"You don't need to buy much, just this much. Go home and raise it well for a month or two. It will be enough to provide nutrition for several poultry at home. You don't need to add more. 10% of the feed is enough."
Wow, even Jingshu was listening with great interest.
Next, the breeding master introduced several types of feed insects, some large and some small, some golden nobles and some cheap feed insects that can be bred without any care.
There are even places that specialize in selling large quantities of high-quality maggots.
Yes, high-quality maggot farming methods are complicated and feed has costs. Maggots are high in protein. If 20% of maggots are added to poultry feed, chickens can lay one more egg per day.
