Doomsday Farm Tour

Chapter 13

The review period for Chun Wei's initial trial was one month, and during this time Lu Xiao was busy selecting new chicks with Chang An. There are no people in their village who know how to raise chicks, and those who can do so are half a day away from the village.

Lu Xiao and Chang'an had no choice but to set off before dawn and come back before noon. Direct sunlight at noon can easily cause fragile chickens to be injured and lack water. It is also necessary to get up early in order to reduce losses.

The person who raised the chicks was surnamed An, and he was a rather thin man. There are obvious wrinkles on his face, and there is a shrewd and capable merchant in his eyebrows and eyes. Although this man looked thin and small, he was actually very agile. Hearing that Lu Xiao was going to have more than 600 chicks, the creases on his face seemed to be stretched.

"Look, these chicks are all good and healthy." An Gen'er led him into the room, where the temperature was at least fifty degrees Celsius. This is so that the seedlings can safely survive the two-month dangerous period. Chang An stretched out his hand and pinched the chick's abdomen to make sure there were no hard lumps. There are hard lumps to prove that the chicks did not absorb well when they hatched, and their bodies were not strong enough. Zheng Mo also carefully checked the chicken's buttocks to make sure that there was no sick chicken with a stomachache. Among the 600 chicks, 200 are from our own family, so we must take a serious look at them.

Chang An and Zheng Mo looked at most of the room before nodding in satisfaction. They had to say that An Gen was indeed good at raising chickens. It would be too risky for Lu Xiao and the others to bring back six hundred chicks, and Angen also knew that the big customers in front of them volunteered to help transport them back to the village.

Lu Xiao was waiting for this sentence. He not only wanted An Gen to help deliver the chicks, but also wanted him to see how the chicken coop was built. For future cooperation, An Gen must do his best no matter what.

The four of them returned to the village with 600 chicken seedlings, showing no intention of hiding anything. This year, we bought land, mountains, and chicken seedlings again to cover up the money we earned from brewing wine, so that some people in the province used the name of relatives to make autumn wind. Even if the Lu family has a lot of money, there shouldn't be much left after buying so many things.

In ancient times, there were no plastic greenhouses, so thick straw could only be spread on the roof. The straw is put in the sun in advance and dried well, so that it is dry and warm. The shed is surrounded by a big kang, and the charcoal has been burned in advance. The temperature in the entire shed is no lower than that of Liu Gen, and the temperature can be lowered slowly in half a month. After the temperature drops to the same level as the normal environment, it can be released and transferred to the chicken pen that was prepared earlier.

More than 600 chickens naturally couldn't just rely on Lu and Zheng's family, especially since the Lu family had just bought land in front of them, no matter how capable Chang'an was, he couldn't really be a man's envoy. Chang'an himself thought it was nothing, it was all his own land, but Lu Mo felt that brother should take care of his body more, and save some energy if he can. Although Lu Xiao is capable, he has the shadow of his previous illness and weakness. Lu's father doesn't agree with him doing more, at most helping him.

In the end, after all the ups and downs, Father Lu decided to ask someone to take care of the field. Chang An followed Zheng Mo to look at the chicks, lest the workers he invited would not be careful. Brother Zheng also often comes to take care of him in his free time, but the workers he invites are men after all. In order to avoid suspicion, Brother Zheng only came when Zheng Mo Changan was around. The wages of the workers hired by the chicken coop are mainly paid by the Lu family, and they are responsible for cooking food for the chickens and cleaning up on weekdays.
