Chapter 201 The yield is very rich and fresh
Wei Ce chewed on the bamboo while his eyes followed Si Shuo.
Weize was so happy to be able to eat fresh bamboo and have the little female by his side that he couldn't help shaking his head.
Si Shuo picked up a stick from somewhere and started to pick up the dead leaves and weeds on the ground, poking here and knocking there. From time to time, he turned his head to look at Wei Ce who was chewing bamboo, and smiled and waved.
When Wei Ce had almost finished eating, he took her to the edge of the cliff, told her not to run around, and hid behind a big rock.
Si Shuo understood after a moment's thought that the bear regarded the cliff as the place where grains were reincarnated. No wonder she did not step on any landmines in the bamboo forest.
Wei Ce transformed himself into a human form, and took Si Shuo to dig up several nests of fat bamboo rats, captured two golden-headed chickens, and five birds. He successfully starved himself to death, and then the two of them returned home.
"Brother Ce, do you usually eat these small animals as snacks?" Si Shuo asked, pulling his ear.
Wei Ze nodded, "Yes, the meat of these wild animals is firmer and more flavorful, and the ones raised by orcs are not as tasty. But we only catch some when we encounter them.
Wild small animals are more alert, and it takes more energy to catch them. Moreover, they are small in size, so at most you can just have a bite and taste the meat."
"Then have you ever thought about buying some chickens, ducks and geese and raising them in the bamboo mountain?" Si Shuo asked with a smile.
Wei Ce was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "No, these little things are not easy to raise, right? Our iron-eating beasts have high combat power. Even if we restrain our breath and appear in front of them from time to time, we can scare them to death.
It’s not like there haven’t been orcs who have raised poultry before, thinking they can sell them for money if they don’t eat them, but if you raise too many poultry, they’ll get sick easily if you don’t take good care of them, and if you raise too few, it’ll waste time and energy, not to mention letting the poultry run all over the mountains and fields.”
Si Shuo nodded in understanding. If you don't pay attention to hygiene, poultry will easily get sick, and if you keep a large number of them, the losses will be huge and the risks will be great. However, she has a professional poultry breeding manual, which clearly describes the treatment and prevention of each disease.
"Brother Ce, why don't we give it a try? It would be a shame to have such a large bamboo forest with only bamboos growing on it. Besides, I see there is a large lake at the foot of the mountain, which is also suitable for raising ducks and geese!"
Wei Ce smiled and said, "If Sister Shuo wants to try, just try it." His idea was simple. Females are curious about everything, so they will definitely try it until they hit a wall and realize that the road is blocked, and then they will change their route next time.
And his father said yesterday that the monthly salary he had handed in over the years was all saved. The father and son spent all the monthly salary that Wei Jin earned as a civilian in the Beast Barracks.
"If we raise poultry well, wouldn't that be an additional source of income for the Iron Beast Tribe? The poultry will run all over the mountains and fields, catching insects to eat by themselves, and we can feed them some grain and vegetable leaves.
Poultry is nutritious and has firm meat. It is much tastier than farmed poultry and is closer to wild poultry. You iron-eating beasts should eat a few every day to supplement your nutrition...
I gathered more spiritual plants and asked them to help watch over the poultry to prevent them from escaping. They can also help pick up eggs... The Beast God taught me many ways to pickle eggs..."
When Wei Ce heard this, he also imagined in his mind that eating chicken, duck, goose and eggs five times a day would be a wonderful life!
"Then I'll go to the market to buy chickens, ducks and goose chicks tomorrow?" he asked with sparkling eyes.
"First, we'll fence off these three hundred acres of land, build more nests in the bamboo forest, and place water basins and food bowls... After everything is set up, we'll buy some half-grown poultry... Brother Ce, go ask the tribe members if there are any tribesmen who would like to raise poultry with us. I have wood-related abilities, so I have some healing abilities, and I can identify herbs, so I can help treat the poultry." Si Shuo said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll ask when I get back," Weitzel nodded. "It's a good opportunity for me to call some brothers to help us fence off the land."
After sending the little female home, Weize hurried back to his tribe.
Si Shuo told the males in the family about this matter. "Our bamboo forest alone covers 300 acres. You can't see the thick layer of fallen leaves on the ground. The fertile land has turned black. I can see nests of earthworms wherever I poke with a bamboo pole. Poultry love to eat that stuff! Poultry are prone to illness in hot weather, but there are only a few types of diseases. When we feed them, we usually add some grass to prevent and improve their disease resistance.
We don’t raise too many per acre, just 20, so 300 acres means 6,000…”
Zhile smiled and said, "Then let's give it a try. If it works, we'll have more chickens, ducks, geese and eggs than we can eat. If it doesn't, we'll just lose some crystals."
"It will definitely work," Si Shuo nodded heavily, "I will lead the iron-eating beasts to become large-scale breeders. It's a pity to waste such good land resources in Zhushan. We must realize a virtuous cycle of using chickens to promote forestry, using forests to protect chickens, raising chickens to increase income, and making forest land fertile!" She made herself excited and her blood boiled.
As a woman, you need to be a bit career-oriented, so that you won't only have eyes for men and babies all day long, making your life more and more boring and narrow-minded.
Yin Jiang smiled and said, "Then when I'm off duty, I'll help you patrol your 'territory' to make sure any abnormalities with the poultry are discovered in time." Si Shuo nodded.
"Students in the martial arts school need to strengthen their exercise. It's just right for them to run in circles every day and help with some odd jobs," Gong You raised his eyebrows and smiled. Si Shuo smiled and said yes.
Ji Liang also hissed, "Leave the sale of chickens, ducks, geese and eggs to me!" Si Shuo applauded.
Zhile curled the corners of his lips and said, "Kitten, I'll raise them with you." Except for Xuchi who is now focusing on raising kittens, the other brothers in the family all have their own things to do.

He didn't have such big ambitions, he just wanted to take good care of the little female at home. Now that she wanted to breed, he would accompany her! Si Shuo also understood what he meant, smiled and nodded, "Zhi Le is good at it, we will pick up eggs every day until our hands are tired."
Xiao Cheng also raised his hand and said, "Sister, what about me? What should I do?" He couldn't tear down Wei Ce's bamboo forest to make paper, could he? Si Shuo's eyes turned slightly, and he looked at him and laughed for a while, which confused the males in the family.
But before she could open her mouth to speak, she couldn't help laughing again. This time, the males were helpless, but they were also infected by her and laughed along.
Xiao Cheng came over and hugged her, "Sister, what's going on? Why is it so funny?"
Si Shuo took a deep breath, suppressed his laughter, and said, "Well, I found out that there is something particularly abundant on the Bamboo Mountain... Hahaha... It's all over the mountain and the fields... Ha... And the daily output is very abundant and fresh, most, most, most suitable for papermaking.
Xiao Cheng can lead people to make all these things into paper, which will save resources, reduce costs, improve environmental hygiene, and generate income for the Iron-eating Beast Tribe. There are many benefits!"
After saying that, she fell directly into his arms and laughed again.
My dears, have you guessed what it is? The paper made from this thing is very expensive!
Today's update is over... See you tomorrow at 8 o'clock...
