Everyone was whispering among themselves.
Xiang Wanwan was somewhat surprised by everyone's reactions.
With so many households on the island, doesn't anyone keep any living creatures?
Wouldn't she be the first person to raise pigs?
She looked at Sister Wang and slowly said, "I asked Lu Jingnian, and he didn't say it was impossible, so it should be possible!"
"As for the piglets, I asked my family to find a way to get them."
Xiang Wanwan ultimately didn't say that it was Lu Jingnian who had arranged it for her.
It's best to keep this kind of backdoor thing to yourself.
Upon hearing this, Sister Wang slapped her thigh and exclaimed, "Oh dear, if I had known I could raise pigs, I should have brought two piglets with me when I came to the island!"
"This way we won't have to rely on those pitiful supplies every month. The little bit of meat we get each month isn't even enough to fill a tooth gap."
“Although I lived in the countryside before, my family raised pigs and I never lacked meat. But here, I can’t even get meat.”
"This is so frustrating!"
Wang's words resonated with everyone.
"Who can argue with that?"
“When I was in the city, I never used up all my meat coupons each month, and I would eat a piece of meat every few days.”
"It's nothing like now! Forget about meat, we can't even get enough rice to eat."
"Besides, you can't just leave the island whenever you want, and family members aren't allowed to visit freely, so it's really difficult to get anything good!"
"Comrade Xiang really knows how to get piglets onto the island."
······
As everyone chimed in, the conversation gradually turned into complaints about the island.
The three young comrades who were working were stunned by what they heard.
Upon seeing this, Xiang Wanwan immediately called for a halt.
"Listen to me, there is actually a way."
"You can grow your own vegetables, which will be enough for your daily needs."
"Then when my piglets grow up, I'll slaughter them for meat, and everyone can buy them and have some."
Upon hearing this, everyone became excited.
Yes, the chief's wife raises pigs, so they'll be able to eat them too.
They fully support pig farming!
Because repairing a pigsty is simpler than repairing a pavilion, it was all completed in half a day.
Xiang Wanwan asked them to add a roof to the pigsty to prevent the pigs from getting wet when it rains.
Her idea was to first build a simple pigsty.
Once her pig farming business is up and running, she'll find a place on the island, build a larger pigsty, and raise a dozen or so pigs at a time.
Then there will be more meat than you can eat!
She then had sausages and cured meat.
Just thinking about this made Xiang Wanwan's mouth water.
However, deciding what to feed the pigs is a difficult problem to solve.
They don't even have enough grain to eat on a daily basis, so they certainly can't feed the pigs normal pig feed.
However, there are fish, shrimp, and seafood on the island, which should be suitable for feeding pigs.
