Chu Tian frowned and thought to himself, is the company trying to get something for nothing?
But after thinking about it, he still asked, "If I raise it, how do I complete the quest?"
Captain Sun took out a notebook from a drawer, opened it, looked at it, and replied, "Fifty percent of the rabbits from a litter must be turned over after they are raised."
“····”
Chu Tian thought, are they really trying to get something for nothing? They don't even have to pay a dime, yet they're still asking them to pay so much?
Seeing Chu Tian didn't react, Captain Sun smiled and said, "It's actually quite good. Didn't the First Company open a chicken farm? I went to the First Company a while ago to ask about it. They have to hand over 60% of the chickens and eggs to the regiment headquarters every year. The feed for the chickens is also paid for by the team itself."
Captain Sun stood up and poured a glass of water and handed it to Chu Tian. "Our company doesn't know how to buy breeding rabbits, nor does it know how to build a breeding farm."
"So, no matter how many rabbits the rabbits give birth to in the future, you only need to hand over 50%. The rest of the rabbits can be kept by our team members for themselves or sold to the supply and marketing cooperative."
After a pause, he continued, "The most important thing is, didn't you say it before? Rabbits don't need to eat any feed, and they are easy to raise..."
Chu Tian nodded and was silent for a moment before asking, "Then, Captain, how many pairs of rabbits do you plan to buy for the first time?"
Captain Sun thought about it after hearing this and asked tentatively, "Isn't it unrealistic to have one family and one child?"
Chu Tian was stunned. "One family and one pair? Captain, do you mean to let them raise their children at home separately?"
Captain Sun grinned and nodded, "Yes, Accountant Xu, the team leaders and I discussed it, and we all feel that it's already July, and the busy farming season is less than a month away. It's unrealistic to build a breeding farm at this time. It would be better to raise rabbits at home. That way, each of us can raise our own rabbits and pay more attention to them."
"What do you think?"
Chu Tian figured out the whole thing and smiled heartily, "Okay, the captain's idea is very good, very good."
Seeing that Chu Tian also thought his idea was good, Captain Sun felt much better and continued, "We don't have much money in our brigade account, less than a thousand, and we have a total of 52 households now. No, including the educated youth, that's 53 households. If each household buys a pair, I don't know if the money will be enough."
Chu Tian thought for a moment and said, "I asked before. If you want adult breeding rabbits, a pair costs four dollars."
"If it's a bunny, a male and a female, it only costs two dollars."
Captain Sun was surprised, "Is there such a big difference?"
Chu Tian nodded. "It's just that different. However, I suggest breeding rabbits. After all, it's almost August now, and it will be August when you buy them. If you feed them well from August to winter, you can at least breed two or three litters. If they are baby rabbits, you can breed one litter, which is good..."
Captain Sun lowered his head in thought. After a while, he raised his head and said, "I have already issued the certificate. Now I just need to discuss it with the team leaders. I will come to you after the discussion is completed."
Chu Tian nodded and stood up and said, "Okay, then I'll go back first."
After leaving the brigade headquarters, Chu Tian did not go home directly, but turned around and went to the regiment, picked up two kilograms of milk lumps and some dried meat, and went to find a young clerk he was familiar with in the Youth League Office, told him about Chen Jiefang, and then went home.
In the evening, after dinner, everyone sat in the main hall. Chu Tian held Xinxin in his arms, looked at Yao Xiuli who was still listless opposite him, thought for a moment and spoke.
"Xiu Li, I've asked the captain, it won't have any effect on you."
Yao Xiuli nodded, "Brother-in-law, I know."
Chu Tian frowned, "Then you..."
Yao Xiuli looked up at Yao Xiujuan, bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Brother-in-law, Li Zhiqing..."
“·····”
Chu Tian knew what Yao Xiuli was thinking. After a long silence, he said, "He's fine too. Not only is it okay for him to be brave and righteous, but the company will even reward him."
Yao Xiuli took a deep breath after hearing this, "That's great..."
Yao Xiujuan glanced at Yao Xiuli and frowned. After thinking for a while, she turned her head to look at Chu Tian, "Brother Tian, there are rumors outside..."
Chu Tian waved his hand. "You can't eliminate all rumors. The best way to deal with rumors is not to argue or explain. The more you explain, the more they will think we are guilty. So just ignore it and let it spread!"
"It will be forgotten after a while."
Yao Xiuli opened her mouth when she heard this, but seeing Yao Xiujuan's warning look, she finally closed her mouth.
After talking about this, Chu Tian told me that Captain Sun planned to let everyone raise rabbits.
"Grandma, what do you say? The captain said that if you don't want to keep it, you don't have to."
Mrs. Chu glared at him. "Are you stupid? Why not raise them? The breeding rabbits are all bought with money from the brigade. They're not as troublesome as raising pigs, where you have to cut grass and make pig feed. They're not like cows and sheep that need to be taken out to graze every day. Rabbits only need to be fed with some grass or something."
Chu Tianle was happy, "I knew grandma would say that..."
Old Madam Chu smiled and patted Chu Tian on the shoulder, "You're such a grown-up, but you're still so naughty!"
After they chatted and laughed for a while, Mrs. Chu stood up and said to Xinxin and Pingping, "Xinxin, Pingping, I'm leaving. I'm going to sleep with grandma."
Xinxin blinked and reached out to grab Yao Xiuli's arm, "Grandma, Xinxin wants to sleep with my aunt."
Yao Xiuli was stunned for a moment, then she curled her lips and said, "Okay, then sleep with my aunt."
"Grandma, can I hold Xinxin while she sleeps?"
Mrs. Chu had no objection and nodded, "Okay, then I'll hold Pingping while she sleeps."
Lying on the kang, Chu Tian felt Yao Xiujuan sighing all the time. He stopped pretending to be asleep and hugged her, "Xiujuan, what's wrong with you?"
Yao Xiujuan was startled, "Brother Tian, are you still awake?"
Chu Tian stretched out a hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, "I was almost falling asleep..."
"Brother Tian, I'm sorry..."
Chu Tian said helplessly, "Xiujuan, how many times do you need me to tell you before you remember? We are a family, there is really no need to be so polite. If you have any troubles that you can't solve, you can tell me and we can find a solution together."
Upon hearing this, Yao Xiujuan no longer hesitated and directly expressed Yao Xiuli's thoughts.
"Brother Tian, what do you say we should do?"
"Hey, what did I think it was? Just because of this?"
Yao Xiujuan was shocked, her voice rising considerably. "What do you mean just because of this? Isn't this a big deal?"
Seeing that Yao Xiujuan was unhappy, Chu Tian quickly smiled and comforted her, "Okay, okay, I was wrong."
"Actually, I've known for a long time that Xiu Li likes Li Zhiqing."
Yao Xiujuan was so shocked that she took a long time to react. "Brother Tian, you knew it so long ago, why didn't you tell me?"
Chu Tian, "..."
