Last year, when the plague broke out, they killed all the poultry. They didn't expect that they could still touch the live chickens and ducklings. We were really moved and sad.
After distributing the poultry, Xu Qing announced another piece of good news. However, the news was not as good as that of the poultry. Because there were so many bamboo forests in the village, we also went to the mountains to dig a lot of bamboo shoots and wild vegetables.
But no one would think that there was too much food. Finally, after a discussion, we went to the bamboo forest and the mountain top mentioned by Xu Qing to dig bamboo shoots and wild vegetables.
After that, it rained heavily for two days, but it cleared up after the rain, and the temperature also increased. Taking advantage of the good weather, Xu Qing and Li Changting go out again. This time they are going to Jizhou.
On the way to Jizhou, they passed by the village and saw that the water in the valley had receded. Looking around, there was a lot of green everywhere. The dilapidated houses and fields were covered with green weeds. The weeds were just emerging.
Xu Qing thinks that if the climate doesn't change much, they should be able to move back to the village in the second half of the year.
One day later, they arrived in the city of Jizhou.
Zhao Jian has moved back from Xinghu to Hezhou City, leaving only the common people to plant land on the other side of Xinghu.
There are many good fields and big rivers around the city. Unfortunately, it was dry last year. This spring, it rained for more than a month, and the rivers, small lakes and ponds in the city are full again. But because we are not sure whether there will be drought this year, we dare not easily leave the water source of Xinghu.
Instead of rushing in, Xu Qing and Li Changting ask Zhao Jian to come out and move things.
Zhao Jian thinks that Xu Qing and Li Changting have sent him something good. Last time he tasted the dried vegetables Xu Qing sent, he missed them for a long time.
Zhao Jian took people to follow Xu Qing and Li Changting to a farmhouse outside the city. When he saw the yard full of chickens, ducklings and rabbits, everyone was shocked.
"This..." Zhao Jian was so shocked that he couldn't speak quickly. There were hundreds of young poultry in front of him!
"Where did it come from? Where did you get so many poultry? Oh, my God, you are so hidden Zhao Jian exclaimed excitedly.
"Ever heard of the boundless Fairy Island?" Xu Qing asked him.
Zhao Jian:???
Xu Qing's eyes indicated the poultry in the yard: "here, it's from a kind man."
Zhao Jian was confused by the four words "boundless Fairy Island". As soon as he heard it from a kind-hearted person, he immediately understood Xu Qing's meaning. He was overjoyed and said, "really? so nice?! I heard that the owner of the boundless Fairy Island is indifferent and indifferent. I didn't expect that he would send us warmth! "
Xu Qing added: "not for free."
Zhao Jian smile a stiff, expression tangled for a while, said: "first say good, I have no food on hand."
"It's OK. Don't pay now." Said Xu Qing handed Zhao Jian a list, "this is the price and contract, if there is no problem, you can sign a seal."
Xu Qingkai gave Zhao Jian the same conditions as she gave the villagers. After Zhao Jian looked at it, his brows immediately spread.
"No problem, no problem at all!"
Isn't it the next generation of these poultry? Zhao Jian thinks it's quite affordable.
"I remember you raised a lot of ducks, didn't you?" Xu Qing asked.
"Yes."
"Do you have fertilized duck eggs? I'd like to exchange ducklings with you. I want to exchange as many ducklings as you have. One ducklings for two fertilized eggs. "
"Yes, there are, but I'm not sure there are so many. We hatched ducklings when we warmed up. You can choose some by yourself if you want."
Xu nodded: "OK, you can send half of the poultry to Qingzhou, and take the contract with you by the way."
Zhao Jian was stunned: "what? Isn't it all for me? "
Xu Qing: "don't you see that the number line in the contract is empty?"
Zhao Jian
Xu Qing: "the common people in Qingzhou are also common people. Moreover, you can sell a person's love to the garrison in Qingzhou. Even general situ will remember your kindness."
Zhao Jian: "send!"
Xu Qing bought ten ducks last year. During the Spring Festival, he killed two of them. The rest of the ducks have been well fed and let them lay eggs. The ducklings hatched one by one, but most of them are difficult to breed, because there are only two ducks.
Xu Qing heard that the inbreeding of chickens and ducks would lead to degradation. She didn't know if it was true. She tried to avoid it.
Zhao Jian's farm is in Xinghu, and these cubs also have to be sent to Xinghu. Zhao Jian finds two carts, loads poultry in cages, and takes Xu Qing and Li Changting to Xinghu.
The mountains, forests and valleys around Xinghu Lake have been reclaimed, but some big trees have not been cut down. Without trees, it will be too hot here in summer.
The poultry breeding cave is very clean. The poultry manure here is cleaned twice a day. After all, it's all farm manure. Now it's time to farm, and everyone wants it.
"I hatched three nests of ducks half a month ago. There are thirty-six of them. They are all here."Xu Qing saw the young ducks and big ducks in the duck shed on both sides. The young ducks were still very young and yellow fluffy. There were not many big ducks on the other side, about 20 of them with smooth hairiness and leisurely posture. At a glance, he knew that they were well bred.
"It's warm every day. Basically, I can pick up four or five duck eggs every day. It's better now." Zhao Jiandao.
In the end, Xu Qing exchanged 30 ducklings for 10 ducklings and 40 fertilized eggs.
Zhao Jian was a little puzzled: "don't you think these ducks are sent by" kind-hearted people "? How can you make up your mind?"
Xu Qing: "do you think people have the patience to wait for a year, or do you think people will want a group of young poultry as a reward?"
Zhao Jian doesn't understand.
Xu Qing full of nonsense: "of course, because I have bought it!"
Zhao Jian was shocked: "what what?! You bought it? What did you buy, money? I have money, too! "
Xu Qing hehe: "what is your money? Do you have a way?"
Zhao Jian
Zhao Jian pointed to the contract indignantly: "so these so-called conditions are your own?"
Xu Qing squinted: "do you think these conditions are not good?"
Zhao Jian immediately turned to smile: "well, no better!"
When Zhao Jian thought about it, he thought that he was still good at it. In the future, of course, a few poultry cubs are not worth gold and silver.
Xu Qing said with a slight look: "therefore, I am the one responsible for this contract. I only give you such good conditions because we are friends. You can't default on it at that time."
Zhao Jianlian said: "no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
If things get better in the future, this baby will not be a problem at all.
