Chapter 77 Clipping Nails and Ears
"Fatty, you really don't understand. Every spring, the sika deer antlers will fall off once, and then new ones will be grown, and the grown antlers can be cut."
The old revolutionary said to the fat man happily, and he really didn't understand the fat man's hair and sweat all over his head.
"You can raise sika deer with a stick like you. I really don't know what you think." Lao Jie was very dissatisfied.
"Hehe, aren't you here to help me all the time now?" The fat man felt a little embarrassed. He thought that only the little deer that had not grown horns could give birth to deer antlers, but it turned out that the big male deer was also made.
"In two days, all the antlers of these guys fell off, and they were also kept. Although they were not as good as those of the antlers, they could be sold for two more dollars." The old revolutionary reminded him a few more words.
At this time, Qiqi suddenly pointed at a deer and shouted: "Sister Xiaoyu, look, Xiaodian's forehead is starting to bulge."
The fat man also looked over and saw that the half-brother deer, called Diandian by Qiqi, had two tiny protrusions raised above his head, which seemed to be about to grow horns.
"Fatty, you have eight male deer in total, both of them, and two of them are less than a year, so there are six sika deer that can produce antlers. If you cut two crops, the harvest should be good." The old revolutionary went around and made the above conclusion for the fat man.
"Grandpa Sun, can you not cut the antlers?" Qiqi raised her little face, her big watery eyes filled with begging.
The old revolutionary was unmoved: "Little girl, do you cut your nails?"
Seeing Qiqi nodding, the old revolutionary continued, "Cutting antlers is almost the same as cutting nails."
Xiao Qiqi is not easy to fool. She blinked for a long time: "Will that little deer hurt?"
"It's not normal, but it will definitely hurt a little when you first cut off your glutinous rice, and it won't hurt too much. Just pull a small mouth to your little finger."
"Grandpa Sun, you won't lie, are you?" Qiqi was a little untrustworthy.
"It's better to kill the sika deer, then peel it, eat meat, and chop the antler!" Old Geng didn't want to keep sticking to her, so he started to be cruel.
Qiqi was indeed scared by this more serious consequence, and felt that cutting the deer antler was acceptable, so she stopped saying a word. The fat man quietly raised his finger to the old revolutionary: He is worthy of being an old senior, there is really a way. This is called taking both evils in the least, and even the most difficult Qiqi has to surrender.
The commotion of the deer made Xiangxiang next to him a little uneasy. The family of three was far away. Even Princess Xiangxiang, who usually walked into the deer pen, ran back obediently. In two or three months, the little guy grew a lot.
"Fatty, when will you kill this deer? It's best to be July and August, when the musk is the most abundant at that time." The old revolutionary pointed the fragrant smell with his hand.
"Can't kill!" Qiqi was really anxious this time, and her impression of the old revolution turned sharply. If it weren't for the fact that she had a lot of fun in catching the thief yesterday, she would probably have called him "bad grandpa".
"No need to kill." The fat man finally found a little confidence. The old revolutionary can only kill chickens and get eggs. He has not mastered the advanced method of the fat man. There is no way, technology is always improving, not to mention that the fat man lives in an era of information expansion, so there is no pride in being ahead of his knowledge.
"How can I get musk if I don't kill?" Old Bi Ming looked confused.
"Of course there is a way to pull it out from the sachet. As long as the musk inside does not destroy the sachet, musk can slowly grow again. This principle is similar to cutting deer antlers." The fat man said and gestured, saying in a very clear way.
The old revolutionary frowned and said, "Fatty, can you tell me in detail?"
The fat man scratched his head, but he had only theory but not practiced. He held it in for a long time before he said, "Old webmaster, you just said that cutting deer antlers is like cutting nails. This live musk deer fragrance is a bit like using an ear-digging spoon to clean his ears."
"Maybe it can really happen." The old revolutionary's eyes shone: "Fatty, what tools are needed? Prepare immediately. Let's try it first."
This old man is really a practical person, he does it at will, but the fat man has his own plans: "It's not possible now. It's not too late to take action after Xiangxiang and others are not afraid of others. Besides, spring is coming soon, and I want to expand their team. What if Xiangxiang is not attractive if it is taken out with musk?"
"So you kid is not a bad guy. I'll keep an eye on it. After they mate, we'll start." The old revolutionary was eager to try.
"Sister Xiaoyu, we're back. Uncle and Grandpa Sun always have bad ideas, so we ignore them." Qiqi finally couldn't stand this torture and walked back with her big braid.
The fat man and the old revolutionary looked at each other: "We are all the kindest. Qiqi, you should understand that killing pigs to eat meat, raising chickens to lay eggs, raising deer to cut antlers, and raising musk deer to get incense. You should learn to accept reality."
Qiqi turned around, twitched his little nose and made a face, and then ran away. It seemed that the little guy was still in his heart, but he could barely accept it.
The fat man smacked his lips and said to the old revolutionary: "Does we consider it a good idea?"
The old revolutionary looked confused. His thoughts were very different from those of fat people and it took some time to change.
In the next few days, before Qiqi went to school, the fat man scattered the deer herds out of the fence and grazed on the hillside. According to the experience of the old revolutionary, the deer pen is still a little small, so it is best to use free-range breeding to give the sika deer enough space to grow up healthily.
However, it is obviously a bit risky to do this: the sika deer is famous for its running speed. If you run away with your hooves and run away, who can catch up? Anyway, the old revolutionary can't catch up.
The fat man was not worried at all. He had already made this plan, but in the middle of winter, there was ice and snow everywhere, and it was not suitable for deer release. Now that the ice and snow are melting, it is time for him to go.
He has always had the idea of "harmony between man and nature", and the same is true for animals. It is best to ask them to grow in a natural state. This will save money. If you keep it in a fence and eat it and chew it, how much feed will you get in a year?
In Fatty’s plan, it is best to ask these guys to find food for themselves in spring, summer and autumn, whether it is sika deer, deer or chickens and geese.
The old revolutionary said that he had a way to train chickens and gooses, and had already put it into action; the sika deer and deer had to depend on Qiqi's ability, and only she could tame these guys now.
Xiao Qiqi lived up to the expectations and led the deer to stroll. Later, I got tired of it, so I simply rode on a big male deer and wandered around. Erzhuzi was like a small follower, following him on the ground. At first, the fat man was afraid that Qiqi would be in danger, but when he saw the male deer honestly and didn't run away, he felt relieved.
Erzhuzi looked at it and wanted to catch one and ride it on. He had ridden a horse, a cow, but he had never ridden a deer.
But the Sika Deer didn't buy it and didn't let him get close at all. Erzhuzi could only look at the little Qiqi on the deer's back and stutter: "Why are this Sika Deer picking people?"
The fat man was also envious, but he had no nerve to try: With this body, he had to press down the sika deer. As for people, it is important to know yourself.
With Qiqi's help, the deer was gradually taken over by Erzhuzi. He could already grazed independently and could safely drive the deer back to the deer pen at night.
