Chapter 158 Raising Earthworms and Raising Chickens

Xue Ning ignored the captain's expression and nodded seriously, "Yes, we are surrounded by mountains. This is a unique geographical environment. It would be a waste not to raise chickens, and the chickens raised in the mountains taste better.

It's better, the meat is firmer, and it tastes much better." Maybe we can create a brand unique to this place in the future.

The captain didn't know how to attack Xue Ning, so he thought Xue Ning was just fooling around.

I used to think Xue Zhiqing was a very smart person, why did he suddenly become confused now?

The captain did not attack Xue Ning immediately, but said patiently, "Although the idea is good, Xue Zhiqing, you have to figure out what the situation is now! Every year in our village, there are members who are hungry, and the food at home is not enough for themselves.

Yes, where is the surplus grain to raise chickens?"

The current grain output is not high, and a large part of it is handed over to the public every year. The rest is not enough for the people in the village to raise, so how can we raise chickens?

You can't let the chicken eat pebbles all the time!

That shouldn't kill it.

Xue Ning knew that the captain would say this, so he was not in a hurry and slowly told the captain what he thought.

"Captain, although raising chickens requires a lot of grain, we can use other methods as a substitute! You can raise chickens without using grain."

The captain felt it was outrageous.

He asked funnyly, "What do you think can be used as a substitute?"

"Fish and earthworms!"

Xue Ning is very confident and looks confident.

"I saw a lot of small fish in the river. No one liked to eat those fish. They were overflowing in the river. I thought of mixing small fish with earthworms to make feed for chickens. You can also add it to the feed.

The bran husks and inedible wild vegetables, together, are much more nutritious than feeding corn kernels, and the cost we paid is not much, so this can be regarded as a business that does not lose money."

The captain listened absentmindedly at first, always feeling that Xue Ning was talking nonsense.

A little girl from the city, how do you know anything about breeding?

It can be said that any old man in the village knows more about raising chickens and ducks than she does.

But gradually, the more I listened, the more fascinated I became, and finally my interest was completely aroused by what Xue Ning said.

Just hearing what Xue Ning said, I can think of the scene of chickens running all over the mountains and fields.

If all those chickens are sold, there will be a lot of money! Then the members will also be able to share a lot of money!

In this way, no one will be hungry. Not only will they not be hungry, everyone will be able to live a good life, and it will be possible to get rich in the future!

The captain gradually became excited.

But in the blink of an eye, it’s wrong!

The ideal is very full, but the reality is different!

"Chickens cannot be raised in a day or two. How can there be so many fish in the river? Let alone earthworms." The captain shook his head, "This method can only be an ideal result, it will not work.

"If he goes out to dig in the mud and turn over the soil for a whole day, he may not be able to find 10 earthworms.

The captain sighed, still feeling a little regretful.

I feel that this era is very tragic. There are many things that I cannot and dare not do, and I may not be able to achieve them. I really feel very powerless!

Xue Ning still looked calm and calm, she said: "Captain, if we don't have earthworms, we can raise them ourselves!"

The captain was shocked, "Raise earthworms by yourself?"

"Yes, I have a way to grow enough earthworms in a short time."

The growth cycle of earthworms is 3 months. If earthworms are reproduced in large numbers, there will not be enough earthworms to feed the chickens.

In order to make the captain believe what she said, Xue Ning carefully explained to the captain the conditions and equipment for raising earthworms, including temperature and humidity, which are not often heard terms, all of which were instilled in the captain, in order to

Let the captain believe her words.

Raising earthworms is really simple, as long as you are careful enough.

Although the captain didn't quite understand, she felt that what Xue Ning said made sense, as if that's how earthworms are raised.

My heart, which had been cold, warmed up again.

"Xue Zhiqing, is this method of raising earthworms your idea?"

Xue Ning said: "Um...no, one of my teachers said it when I was studying in the past."

The captain was originally sitting on a chair, but now he stood up.

"Okay, okay! I think this method is really good. Maybe we can actually raise enough earthworms for chickens."

The captain finally smiled happily and said, "Xue Zhiqing, you are really the lucky star of our village!"

Xue Ning also made use of the experience summarized by later generations of experts, and she was too embarrassed to take credit.

"Captain, do you mean you agree to raise chickens?"

The captain was a little worried, "I really can't make the decision on this matter. I have to tell the village chief. If the village chief agrees, he has to report to the commune and wait for approval. If everything goes well, it will take at least three months."

OK."

It's not a matter of time, but just thinking about that old guy, the village chief, makes the captain's head hurt.

Anyway, he felt that the village chief would not agree easily.

Xue Ning thought for a while and said, "It's okay. As long as everything goes in the direction we planned, I will raise more earthworms at home in the past three months. Once the approval is obtained, I can start the chicken raising plan directly."

Generally, the growth cycle of native chickens is four to six months, and returns can be seen within one year.

The captain nodded, looking eager to try.

I really look forward to the day of raising chickens.

But the most important thing right now is the old guy who is the village chief.

"Xue Zhiqing, you are the proposer, why don't you come with me to the village chief and explain the situation to him."

The corner of Xue Ning's mouth twitched, "Forget it, the old man and I don't get along. We will definitely have a quarrel when we meet. It's up to you, captain, to talk about it! This matter is also very simple. It is to encourage the villagers to engage in breeding. You can definitely talk to the village chief.

say clearly."

"Captain, this matter depends on you. I'm going back to prepare to raise earthworms, so I'm leaving." Xue Ning said and left.

The captain shook his head helplessly, as long as he went to the village chief.

Sure enough! The village chief does not agree with breeding.

The captain rolled his eyes. He had clearly explained the pros and cons to the village chief, and also said that raising chickens would not waste much food. But the village chief just couldn't get enough food and salt. I really don't know what the old guy was thinking about all day long.

"Village Chief, this is a good thing that benefits the members. Why don't you agree?"

The village chief snorted coldly, took a sip of water from the enamel cup, and then said slowly, "You are a captain after all. Why are you being fooled by that educated youth all day long? What do you want me as the village chief to do?"

The captain was so angry that he almost vomited blood. "What is cheating? Xue Zhiqing's method is very good and there are no problems. It can greatly improve the productivity of our village. Anyone who doesn't do anything to make money is a fool." I like the group favorite of the times,
