"How come some villagers are willing to sell their hens?"
Sheng Zhiyi chuckled, "This old hen no longer lays eggs, so they sold it."
"And they should have already raised replacement hens."
Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to save eggs so quickly.
Mu Yunxi nodded. That’s true.
Every household in the village relies on the two chickens they raise at home to lay eggs, which they save and sell to support their daily living expenses.
If this chicken can still lay eggs, the villagers generally would be reluctant to sell it.
Moreover, most villagers would secretly raise an extra hen in their rooms.
This way I can save more eggs and sell them at the market.
As for why no one reported it, it is probably because except for the village cadres, almost every household secretly raised an extra chicken.
And even if someone reports it, at most they will just have to hand over the extra chicken and give them a few verbal warnings, and there won't be any severe punishment.
But if the person who reports it is discovered, it will be terrible, and the people who will be offended will basically be the entire village.
Because of this, the villagers have always raised an extra chicken for many years, and everything has been peaceful.
Sheng Zhiyi put the old hen on the ground.
He lit the fire, boiled water, killed the chicken, bled it, and scalded its feathers. With quick movements, he slaughtered the old hen in no time.
