A few days before the autumn harvest, the men in the village made water vats. Several families already had water vats to fill with water, which they could also use to store grain after the harvest. They were waterproof and moisture-proof, making them very practical.
However, if every household wants to have a water tank, they'll have to wait until after the autumn harvest.
The weather was quite nice during the autumn harvest, with clear skies and crisp air. It should be said that since the snow disaster, the weather had been favorable. Originally, Song Zhuiyan wanted to plant rice for the next season, but she was busy hunting and she was able to enter her space. The three acres of land in her space could be used to grow crops in all four seasons, so she didn't pay much attention to the land outside.
Once the sweet potatoes and corn are harvested, she doesn't plan to plant any more; she'll do it next year. She'll focus her energy on the three acres of land in the open space, and her pig farm also requires a lot of time to manage.
The main problem is that the pig feed we bought has run out, so the more than 100 pigs have to switch to eating pigweed and grains. We also chopped up and dried all the sweet potatoes, corn, and sweet potato vines that we collected from outside, and then stored them away.
Then they put them in a pot and cooked them together every day. After they were cooked, they were used to feed the pigs. Since the feed ran out, the more than 100 pigs have become thinner and thinner. Sigh, if I hadn't time-traveled, these pigs could have been sold for tens of thousands of yuan. After all, pork prices have risen sharply in the past two years, and raising pigs is a very profitable time.
Now the only option is to keep them in the space to retire and grow thin. After thinking it over, Song Zhuiyan felt it would be more cost-effective to put a hundred or ninety of them in Song Tantan's supermarket.
Time stands still in the supermarket. The fat pigs can be put in without being shortchanged, and a lot of feed can be saved. After all, these pigs could have been sold long ago, and it would be a loss to keep raising them.
“But if we put them in the supermarket and then let them out again, they’ll become stupid pigs. Auntie, these pigs are your hard work, and I can’t bear to see them become stupid after all the effort you’ve put into raising them.” Song Tantan shook her head like a rattle drum.
"Come on, no one's pigs can be smart. These pigs do nothing but eat and sleep. If they can't be sold, I have to work hard to cut pig feed and prepare pig feed. Cooking pig feed every day is exhausting. Anyway, your supermarket is big enough to house three hundred pigs without any problem."
At this point, Song Zhuiyan suddenly paused, "But moving those pigs to the supermarket might take a lot of effort. Forget it, what if you get exhausted?"
"Let's just put it in the supermarket. Feeding pigs is really too tiring. Moving it from one space to another doesn't seem to be too difficult." Song Tantan had previously tried moving grain from her hometown to the supermarket, transferring a thousand kilograms at once, without any side effects.
She wasn't quite clear about the rules here, only that no matter how much stuff was transferred between the two spaces, it didn't affect her body. However, when a large amount of external things were transferred into or out of the space, she would become so weak that she would faint.
However, it's not a big problem. Eating some nutritious food will help you recover quickly. As long as you don't operate under dangerous circumstances, you can do it with peace of mind.
Originally, she didn't want to put live pigs in the supermarket to make them stupid. She always felt that those big white pigs were her aunt's hard work and should be kept in the pigsty as always to feel like home.
But thinking about her aunt's experience feeding pigs during the time she couldn't enter the space, Song Tantan immediately felt sorry for her. Back then, there was still pig feed to sustain her, so she didn't have to cook pig feed every day. She only needed to wash the pigpen and spray disinfectant. Even so, she was exhausted and almost gave up.
Actually, after feeding the pigs for just two days, she had already thought about moving them to the supermarket, which would make her life much easier and save her money on pig feed.
But every time she saw her aunt asking her with concern whether she had fed the pigs, chickens, ducks and geese, and whether she had planted the crops in the fields, she felt a pang of sadness. The pig farm and everything in her hometown were the result of her aunt's hard work for more than ten years. They had already moved too far away from home. If she couldn't save the pig farm, her aunt would be heartbroken.
So she gritted her teeth and persevered, never showing any sign of hardship or exhaustion to her aunt, bearing it all on her small shoulders.
However, now that Auntie can enter the space, and with the pig farming business in Songlin Village developing rapidly, Auntie obviously doesn't have the energy to manage both sides. Since she was able to enter the space, Auntie's attachment to her hometown has gradually faded.
After all, she can enter the space whenever she wants now, as many times as she wants, so it's not as rare anymore. After raising the pig for several months and it's getting thinner and thinner, her aunt, who is always very frugal, couldn't stand it anymore.
I don't want to waste my energy raising pigs that I can't sell anymore. I'll just keep a dozen or so sows for breeding. The pigs that can be slaughtered will be kept fresh in supermarkets until the world is stable and I can sell them.
As for whether pigs have become dumber, that's not something she wants to think about. She'll sell the livestock for meat sooner or later anyway, so why bother with emotional issues?
"Tantan, don't try to fool me. Let's avoid doing things that harm our health. You can't move large quantities of things unless it's absolutely necessary." Song Zhuiyan was always worried that the energy she expended each time would affect Song Tantan's lifespan, so she strongly disagreed with her spending energy moving large items.
She must have lost her mind to suggest that Tantan move a hundred pigs to the supermarket; how could she forget that it would drain her energy?
"Auntie, don't blame yourself. It's really nothing. I've tried it. You'll see if you don't believe me." Song Tantan didn't even blink. With just a thought, all one hundred big white pigs in the pigpen disappeared in an instant.
"See, nothing's wrong. Moving from one space to another is as easy as breathing; it doesn't affect my body at all." To prove she was telling the truth, Song Tantan spun around twice and jumped around a few times.
Seeing that she was full of energy and had a rosy complexion, showing no signs of weakness, Song Zhuiyan felt relieved and smiled. "That's great. It seems that within this space, you can freely move anything. You are the master of this space."
"Moreover, the things in the supermarket are still alive when you take them back to your hometown, they won't be killed, unlike the living things brought in from outside that die immediately." She tried taking living things into the supermarket before, and when she took them out, she was dumbfounded. When she took the living things back to her hometown, they became dead.
It terrified her at the time, and she even suspected that she had become an Asura, that the space was a battlefield of carnage, and that anyone who entered her territory would either die or become stupid.
At that time, Song Zhuiyan comforted her like this: "Don't think too much. No matter what, this is your life-saving treasure. No one can bully us. If anyone dares to do anything to us, just put them in your space. They'll either die or become stupid."
Looking at the empty pigsty, Song Zhuiyan sighed, then breathed a sigh of relief. If she didn't move all one hundred pigs, no amount of grain would be enough to feed them, and she wouldn't be able to do anything else all day; cooking pig feed would keep her busy all day.
"Song Tantan, come out and open the door! Open the door!" It was Ye Mo who had come looking for them. This guy was like a persistent ghost; he didn't help dry the sweet potatoes and corn, but came over again begging for food.
Song Tantan and Song Zhuiyan left the space together, and the former ran out to open the fence gate.
Before she could speak, Ye Moxun grabbed her and ran outside, saying, "Come with me, I'll show you something."
"What are you taking me to see? You don't even have time to catch your breath. Be careful you don't overdo it and faint," Song Tantan complained as she ran.
