By the way, "Where did she get the old hen?"
When the family divided their old hen, they took half of it with them. Wasn't the other half all given to Xinghui as compensation for medical expenses?
Later I heard that her family couldn't afford to buy big ones, so they were waiting for other families to hatch chicks next spring so they could buy chicks to raise.
"She said it was from her sister-in-law's family home, and she even promised to help her family exchange rabbits for rabbits to raise back home." Fan Jin told her everything he knew without reservation.
Shui Qing asked in surprise, "Isn't this increasing competition? Will the other villagers agree to this?"
When people traded rabbits with them, they didn't take them home like their own families; it was to improve their own meals.
Cutting grass, feeding the rabbits, cleaning their enclosures—all this hard work is for the sake of selling the rabbits and making money.
It's fine if they're raised in the same village, but if you give a few away and he gives a few away too, won't they be everywhere in no time?
Can it still fetch a good price?
Can you earn money?
"The villagers don't know anything about it; I got this information out of them," Fan Jin said sullenly, his expression downcast.
He and Shuiqing agreed that the villagers should first become a little wealthier, so that they could at least have enough to eat and wear.
Those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have something to wear. Now that they have put on shoes, they will no longer be incited by their elder brother to be envious of his family.
Moreover, good food leads to good health, and later, whether it is famine or war, the hundreds of people in the village can fight against the enemy and fight desperately with starving people and refugees for their own property!
Therefore, the profitable meat rabbits cannot be sold outside the country, at least not in the next few years.
Shui Qing pondered for a moment, then offered a suggestion: "Go and tell the old village chief, and also remind the other villagers to keep an eye on each other in the future."
My suggestion is that rabbit farming can be developed into an industry, with each family raising rabbits separately. When selling them, they can only kill them before selling them, since hunters rarely hunt wild rabbits alive anyway, and most of them are sold dead. This would effectively prevent the breed from being lost.
Then, once it is discovered that another family is selling the same thing, those who sell it will inevitably raise it. Every household in the village knows each other's backgrounds, they all know each other's relatives and where their maternal families are. Once it is found who sent it out, they will be expelled from the village.
Regardless of when it might flow out in the future, as long as it doesn't flow out in the next three to five years, that's fine.
If the villagers really do leave in three to five years and can't make money anymore, she doesn't care.
By then, the war had mostly ended, and the problem lay within the village; they would only harbor resentment towards the family that had voiced it.
I'm afraid that person will no longer be able to stay in the village.
Unlike in China, village rules and clan rules are more feared by the villagers than the law itself!
Fan Jin understood what Shui Qing meant.
Only the old village chief can handle this matter.
However, "at my mother's place"
He stopped mid-sentence.
This time, my older brother and sister-in-law were smart; they didn't ask for it for nothing, but rather exchanged it.
It wasn't them who came to exchange it; it was Mother who came forward.
They are blatantly taking advantage of them.
Shui Qing smiled and reassured them, "It's alright, just change them."
Are they trying to take advantage?
That depends on who you're taking advantage of; you can't take advantage of just anyone.
She wanted to make them lose more than they gained by trying to steal a chicken!
Fan Jin's voice was low: "Shui Qing, they're not stupid. They know that babies that are too small won't survive, so they'll come back to replace them after they leave the nest."
He felt sorry that his mother and elder brother were so scheming, making Shuiqing live a troublesome life with him.
"Well, they don't have many hens, so they can't exchange many for them," Shui Qing said indifferently.
She couldn't choose her parents and relatives; it wasn't Fan Jin's fault. She wouldn't hold a grudge, nor was there any need to.
Anyway, all of these can be male.
