Chapter 186: The Three Restless People
"Sister-in-law, you say it, and I'll listen to you." Seeing that it stopped at him, An Wen immediately became anxious.
"Pig farmers, have you noticed that the price of pork is getting more and more expensive? Last year it was only 1.2 yuan, but this year it's 1.5 yuan."
Mei Xue discovered this when her grandmother asked the villagers to bring back meat.
"Yes, my mother was saying a few days ago that meat is getting more and more expensive." An Wen agreed.
"It's good for you to know. As meat becomes more and more expensive, raising pigs will definitely not be a loss. Of course, if the pigs are not raised well, the cost will be huge." Mei Xue explained.
"You need to discuss this with An Liang and the others. They are studying outside, and there must be books for sale nearby. You can buy a book on pig farming and read it. You will definitely be able to make money in the future if you learn step by step."
This involves a question of luck.
She couldn't say that she could help. She could help for a while, but she couldn't help forever.
Since the families get along pretty well, Mei Xue also wants to give them a hand. It's impossible for her family to change while they remain unchanged.
"Raising pigs?" An Wen fell into deep thought after hearing this.
He couldn't make up his mind for a moment, but he agreed with Mei Xue's words. She must be sure of what she said.
"Sister-in-law, please tell me your secret. Do you have a way to ensure that the pigs don't die?" An Wen asked expectantly.
Mei Xue shook her head. "I'm not a pig. How can I guarantee that? I'm just giving you an idea. It's better to raise pigs at home than to let Uncle Zhengxi go up the mountain to chop wood."
What she wanted to say was, how long would it take them to cut down the wood in the mountains?
"Uncle Zhengxi's legs are not feeling well, but he can still do the pig farming at home. If you're scared, don't stop catching snakes. There's still plenty of game in the mountains, and you'll make a lot of money every month."
She said everything that could be said.
The situation is even simpler for An Cheng and An Liang. The mortality rate from raising chickens and ducks is not that high, but the income is also much less than that of An Wen.
The three of them were silent.
Mei Xue has been observing them. If they are timid and don't do it, she will never say anything in the future.
"I'll listen to my sister-in-law. I'll do it." An Liang was the first to agree. "I make a lot of money from selling wine. I can pay for it."
If his parents don't agree, the worst that can happen is that he can just brew wine for another year.
In response, An Wen also agreed, "Okay, I'll go back and tell Shuangshuang, if she agrees, I'll keep this pig."
However, "Don't raise pigs near your home, or I will kill you." Mei Xue glared at An Wen and said.
"If you want to raise pigs, you'd better go to the brigade and buy a new base and put it downstream of the creek. Otherwise, you will be scolded to death by the villagers."
Mei Xue sighed when she thought of the taste of pork.
"Don't worry. I have a piece of land below my house. I can raise the animals over to Anhua's place when the time comes." An Wen said stealthily.
Mei Xue looked down the mountain and was happy.
"It's up to you." The field that An Wen was talking about was on the mountain near He Anhua's home. There was a big gap between the field and the mountain on their side, and there was also a small stream in the middle. However, the water flow was not too large, but water came down from the mountain all year round.
"It's very convenient to put it there."
An Cheng also nodded in agreement, but he still had to go home and tell his parents about this.
Mei Xue had no objection to this.
"Okay, let's get down to business. Do you have any ideas about this year's plum wine?" Boss Qian has already said that if you want a lot, it would definitely not be cost-effective to brew dozens or hundreds of kilograms.
"Sister-in-law, are you brewing tea too?" An Liang was still a little worried that he might not be able to brew it well.
"Brew. If you have money, why not brew? It's not that difficult."
Hearing this, An Cheng wanted to get up and leave, but Mei Xue stopped him, "You can learn too, but if you want to brew it, don't brew it at home. It will be bad if the villagers see it."
Mei Xue truly treated them as her own brothers.
Think of them in everything.
If An San was here...
"Sister-in-law..." An Cheng was very excited, "Can I learn it?"
"Yes, but whether you can learn it depends on whether you have the ability. Just like them, I will teach you once."
Mei Xue smiled.
"Well, I will learn it. I will definitely learn it with all my heart." This is a craft and he wants to learn it.
"That's good. Go back and tell your parents, and you can brew wine with me. The wine can be kept at my house. The old house happens to be vacant now, so An Liang and you can put your wine there too. We don't plan to raise poultry in that house this year." Mei Xue said kindly.
"Hey, we all listen to our sister-in-law."
At noon, An Liang was so excited that he ran straight home, grabbed a chicken, killed it, and brought it up.
An Wen did the same. He took out a piece of bacon from his own home, which was pork belly bacon. Last year, when he was rich, his family had a lot of bacon.
An Cheng’s task was even simpler. He just had to go home and bring up the newly bought meat and bones.
Now that's good, Mei Xue looked at them speechlessly, "Go cook your own meals, and go back and ask your family to come over for dinner." Are they crazy?
When Grandma He came back, she saw the three boys busying around by the well.
Mei Xue was directing them from the side with a big belly.
"What are you doing?" Grandma He asked as she entered the yard.
"Third Grandma"
"grandmother."
Her overly active stomach made her feel very uncomfortable. "Grandma, they stole things from the house." Mei Xue complained, pointing to something near the well.
After hearing the word "steal", Grandma He started beating the three people without saying a word.
Not only that, after she finished smoking, Grandma He walked to the gate of her yard and shouted outside: "He Zhengnan, Zhang Lanhua, get up here!"
"He Zhengcai, Pan Meilian, you two should get up here too."
"He Zhengxi, Xilian, bring Shuangshuang with you and come here."
Once the three shouts were made, all six people heard them no matter how far away they were.
He Zhengnan had just come back from chopping wood when he heard Third Aunt's call. There was no time to waste, "Third Aunt, we'll be there right away."
Aunt Meilian and the others were the same, they didn't dare to delay, "Third Aunt is here."
Aunt Xilian from next door immediately rushed He Zhengxi out and even stopped burning the fire in the pot.
Li Shuangshuang also put down the needle and thread in her hands and walked out of the main room.
She knew that they were going to visit her sister-in-law today for something, so she didn't go with them.
It's like this every weekend, and it's boring for her to go.
Unexpectedly, they were called at this time.
Aunt Zhengting, who was not far away, also heard it, but she didn't even raise her head as she was picking vegetables behind the house.
Ever since she handed over Anshan's money, she lost her little son and he rarely spoke a word at home every day.
How could she not feel sad? She also knew that because of An Lin, An Shan's future path to wealth and status was cut off.
She felt sorry for Anshan.
It's time for the weekend update. Those who have votes can vote, and those who don't can ask for a reward, hehe.
