After arriving at the village, Su Xia sorted out the things sent by the villagers. To be honest, she felt very happy.
Chen Jianguo took a look and, after these two years, accepted that his wife was more popular in the village than himself. Among his parents and brothers at home, they trusted Su Xia more than him, the eldest son and elder brother.
"Wife, do you feel proud?"
Hearing this, Su Xia raised her chin, indeed proud, "Why, are you jealous?"
Chen Jianguo also laughed, "I am proud too!" - Proud to have you as my wife.
Su Xia was indeed happy. Although she still hadn't worked in the past two years, she hadn't been idle since she promised the villagers to help them raise chickens and pigs that year after she reported the case.
First, I helped the village find a very low-cost pig feed. Rice straw, bean straw, etc. were chopped up, added with a certain proportion of water, covered and fermented for a few days, and then a mixture of bean bran, rice bran, and grain bran was added to mix it with pig feed and fed to the pigs.
The team leader led everyone to collect sweet potato leaves, potato leaves, various pig grasses, and rotten fruits and vegetables. He also cleverly invented the idea of ​​exchanging work points for excess rice bran, vegetables and fruits from the villagers.
This method does reduce costs a lot compared to adding brown sugar and bean dregs to Suxia, and at least they are available in the village.
Chen Jiandang and Chen Jianjun from the old house also feed pigs using this method.
As for raising chickens, it was even simpler. The team leader was asked to build a yard with wooden fences at the back of the nearest mountain, and to use thin branches to insert into the gaps to prevent the chickens from running in.
I still remember the shocked expressions of the team leader, secretary and accountant at that time. "Su girl, is this possible?"
"Why not? There are trees and grass in the back hills. There are bugs in the fields and on the trees, too. It saves you from having to feed them. But you still have to feed them. Just mix rice bran and corn husks with grass."
Su Xia briefly explained that the benefit of feeding chickens naturally is that it prevents diseases.
The captain, secretary and accountant all looked bewildered...
Su Xiayun asked, "I want to ask you, why don't pheasants get sick easily?"
The three old faces suddenly realized what was going on and immediately said excitedly, "It's just a hill. We'll take care of it in no time."
Su Xia rolled her eyes. What a bunch of old-fashioned people.
In the first year, we didn't dare raise more pigs, so we raised only 6. Because of this, we hired two more people to take care of the pigs in the village.
I still remember that among those two there was Wei Qiaolan, the fat girl, but she went back home in the winter of the following year. Maybe she is married now!
As for chickens, they first raised 100 of them. During the process, Su Xia kept going over to them and carefully taught them about hygiene, cleaning, feeding pigs and chickens, and the attention paid to feed. For example, pig grass cannot be fed directly, but must be dried and boiled, and disinfected. Saltpeter and vinegar are commonly used.
Saltpeter is available at any purchasing station. If you mix it with water, it is much cheaper than vinegar.
The captain waved his hand and bought them directly. In this way, the whole village worked together. When there were 90 half-grown chickens left out of the 100, everyone was happy.
The most important thing is the benefits of raising chickens in the back mountain. It is also obvious that the chicken manure does not need to be cleaned up frequently and can be used as fertilizer. I have seen that the chickens in the fenced-off coops grow more vigorously than those in other places.
Besides, not only do chickens grow fast, they can also find insects to eat on their own, so they naturally feed them less. When the captain knew this, he grinned every day.
It was even more so when he saw Su Xia, "Su girl, you are this - thumbs up."
Su Xia waved her hand, not caring. "Let's try it first. Next year, we'll add another 100. Keep the hens for laying eggs. Eggs are also valuable. After winter comes, we can sell them for meat. Just keep the eggs for breeding."
The captain smiled and nodded. "Yeah, I thought so too. We should build a bigger tent."
Su Xia nodded. After a year of experience, in the third year, which was the beginning of the year, there were 12 pigs. The villagers would kill two of them for meat, and when the ten pigs were sold, the villagers would share the money.
In the first year, after deducting the total cost of eggs, chicken, and pigs, each family received at least 20.
In the next year, Su Xia felt that the wages in the village would at least double. Except for the Youth Home, there was always a gap between the villagers because of the report. Of course, they had no chance of sharing the money.
Zhou Jingyun and his friends from the first batch did not even get their share of the pork and went back. The second batch consisted of six people, three boys and three girls, and they were certainly not satisfied.
The captain directly announced, "This is our village's collective property. If you don't contribute money and effort, and you are dissatisfied, go directly to the county to sue us."
The six educated youths looked at each other, still unwilling to accept the outcome. It was Cao Zhenping, who left last, who pulled them back and began to tell them about the feud between the educated youth home and the village.
"Just because of that educated youth Song, we have nothing. Why?" A female educated youth shouted angrily.
Cao Zhenping rolled his eyes. "If you have any objections, go ahead and file a complaint yourself. Believe it or not, I'll send you to the Northwest tomorrow."
The female educated youth opened her eyes wide, too frightened to speak, and the other people stopped making noises. Those who could come here all had some connections at home and had been screened. In fact, it was also thanks to the first batch of educated youth, Wei Qiaolan, Zhou Jingyun, Zhao Song and Cao Zhenping who left last, because of their letters, as well as the more famous things in the county.
Who doesn't have comrades, relatives, and friends who understand the conditions in Zhaojia Village? If the family has food and has few work points, they can use money to buy them. Every child is a treasure growing up, so naturally they don't want them to suffer.
And the most important thing is that the village has a good atmosphere. The team leader and the villagers have no habit of bullying each other, and there are no ruffians in the village. Unlike other villages, the educated youth were raped, committed suicide, the villagers did bad things to the ruffians, and some even starved to death.
In such a comparison, Zhaojia Village is naturally more famous and a place of competition.
So when the village went to pick up the educated youth that year and found that there was not enough space for them in one ox cart, the team leader had a dark face and asked them to watch over the educated youth.
The Youth League Office scratched their heads guiltily and finally left. The team leader looked helplessly at the 20 young leaders. They all had fair skin and were dressed neatly, except for jewelry, skirts and white shoes. If it weren't for the strict atmosphere, this group of people standing in a row would probably be wearing white clothes, small leather shoes, shirts and suit pants.
Which is the military green Zhongshan suit or Lenin suit?
The educated youth were also sensible. Perhaps their elders at home had reminded them of this, so the team leader let them walk back by themselves. None of them made a fuss, and they talked and laughed, and even sang revolutionary songs all the way. By the time they reached the village, they were only half an hour slower than the ox cart.
When Su Xia heard about it, she almost died of laughter, especially since the captain's dark face lasted for half a month.
However, the most fortunate thing for the team leader was that he had the urge to divide the dormitory into two quarters for male and female educated youth, with a high earthen wall in the middle, so they could have both privacy and privacy.
There were two large kangs in the house, which could sleep about ten people, so it was not often that ten educated youth came at once.
When the educated youth came, there were old educated youth with them, so they quickly became familiar with the village. Later, they felt that life here was better than at home. Their parents sent money and tickets, and there were no hard and fast rules in the village. They just needed to earn 4 work points a day. When food was distributed, they used the money to buy tickets.
You can also buy eggs, fruits and vegetables from the villagers, and some of them will be sent home. This has also made Zhaojia Village popular among the educated youth.
And Su Xia, the first batch of educated youth will tell the second batch that this is the person in the village who should not be provoked the most. If you offend her, the entire Zhaojia Village will drown you with spit.
There were also eggs, fruits, pork, food coupons, meat coupons, and various bills, especially those used by girls, so they quickly understood the importance of Su Xia's family.
You still want to provoke Su Xia and make her a idol?
