Chapter 111 Chicken Coop
"Dad! Dad! The rice seeds have sprouted!"
Qi Baojiang walked over quickly: "Here you come! Stop yelling."
"Dad, look, this has grown a lot! Can you take it out?"
Qi Baojiang said: "What did Brother Chang say last time? It seems that if you grow a small half of your fingernails, you will grow?"
"Uncle Chang said that last time! He could take it out and hang it on a little bit. After about three hours, he could plant it in the seedling field."
Qi Baojiang clapped his hands: "What are you waiting for! Pick it out, take it carefully!"
The sons and daughters-in-law agreed repeatedly, and even the youngest people in the family came out to help.
Qi Baojiang picked it for a while, remembered Chang Qingyun's advice, and said, "Take out those rice seeds that have not sprouted, put them aside, and look back to estimate what the sprouting rate is."
The second son Qi Xiaowei couldn't help but say, "Dad, we won't count."
"You can't know how to do your son can't? You have been studying for two or three years, and you can't even calculate the budding rate?"
Qi Xiaowei's son Qi Wenzhi is nine years old this year. He is a fat boy. He is the same temperament as his father. He is an honest child. He heard this and said honestly: "Grandpa, sir, have never taught budding rate."
Hearing this, Qi Wenjie, the son of the eldest son Qi Xiaoqiang, immediately shrank to his parents, for fear that Qi Baojiang would be able to click.
Qi Baojiang yelled, got up and looked at him, glanced at Qi Wenjie again, and said, "Okay, okay, if you don't teach, don't teach, you will pick it up first, I'll go out and call Brother Chang here."
When I turned around, I couldn't help but curse, saying that I shouldn't have sent it to Mr. Wang at the beginning! So much money has been wasted!
Fortunately, Shu Xiu has not had time to hand over this year, otherwise he would have suffered a lot!
Chang Qingyun just put the rice that was urging seedlings into the seedling field yesterday. Today, he was staring at it here and saw Qi Baojiang coming over.
Chang Qingyun looked happy: "Brother Qi's family has sprouted? Let's go and see."
Qijia has many paddy fields and rice seeds. Qi Baojiang is straightforward. Since he plans to raise seedlings, he will work it together according to the estimated amount in the field. Now it is a big project to pick seeds.
Thinking of this, Chang Qingyun turned around and called his two younger brothers to go to Qi Baojiang's house together.
Qi Baojiang hurriedly said, "Just go, why are you still taking people?"
"Help you pick the seeds, otherwise you will burn seedlings if you are stuffed in the straw pile for a long time." Chang Qingyun smiled and said, "I teach you this method of seedling cultivation. You must be responsible for it!"
Qi Baojiang laughed: "Then I won't be polite to you!"
Chang Qingyun also smiled: "I want to hide it from Brother Qi, I also want to see the emergence rate."
"I originally wanted to ask you to have a look, but I'm afraid I can't figure it out."
The two of them talked and laughed, and when they arrived at Qi Baojiang's house, they began to work hard.
The seeds that sprout should be picked out in time and planted in the seedling field after drying for half a day. Do not wait until they are thoroughly dried inside and out.
Throughout the whole day, the three of Chang Qingyun and his brothers were all helping Qi Baojiang's house, and they also found out the budding rate.
The germination rate of the Qibaojiang family is only more than 70%, but this result did not make Chang Qingyun happy. After all, the rice seedlings purchased by Wang Yuzhong are all good seedlings. After their careful cultivation, it has only increased by 20%.
"Brother, are you very angry now? Are you not satisfied with it even if you have increased by 20%?"
Chang Qingyun said: "But think about the cotton seeds that the young lady personally took care of, which increased the budding rate by more than 30%.
Chang Qingsheng looked disappointed and said: "Brother, please be more attentive! You actually want to compete with the young lady? If this is said, you will be punished again!"
"I can't compare with the young lady. I think the young lady is amazing!"
Chang Qingsheng couldn’t guess what his elder brother was thinking. He just wanted to understand the ways to increase the budding rate, but this matter was too urgent!
That night, Chang Qingyun reported the situation of Qi Baojiang's family to Qi Lele.
Qi Lele smiled and said, "That's not bad. Uncle Qi is still satisfied with the result, right?"
"I am extremely satisfied, and I also said I would like to thank the eldest son and the young lady."
Qi Baojiang's personality is really good to get along with the truth.
"Tell Uncle Qi, don't worry, it's not too late to thank you after this crop of rice seeds are harvested."
Qi Lele said, suddenly remembering something and said, "I really want to ask him for help."
Chang Qingyun hurriedly said, "Young Madam, you said, I'll tell him."
"There are too many people in the family now, and I plan to raise some livestock. I remember Uncle Qi raised a lot of chickens at home and wanted to ask him to help us hatch some chickens."
Chang Qingyun said: "I'll go to Qi's family now."
Qi Lele went back to his room and took some money for him and asked him to take it there.
"By the way, do we need to circle out the breeding places first? Then we buy some land?"
Xie Zi'an smiled and said, "It depends on the wife."
Qi Lele ignored his jokes and walked to the table: "The breeding of domestic animals is also very particular. Come on, I will draw it for you."
Hearing this, Xie Zi'an paused with a smile on his lips.
"As far as I know, there are generally two types of chicken raising, one is free-range and the other is captive. The current situation in our family is more suitable for free-range, so we just need to set up a chicken coop."
"It is best to choose a chicken shed on the leeward and sunny flat ground. Bamboo and wood can be used to form a ‘man’ frame, and the top is paved with linoleum and thatch. Drainage ditches should be dug on the outside of the shed, north and west, and bamboo strips should be surrounded by surroundings to make it warm in winter and cool in summer. The shed is equipped with a food trough and sink, as well as an oil lamp for lighting."
After hearing this, Xie Zian said, "I'm afraid this method is to raise more than a few dozen chickens?"
Qi Lele has become accustomed to the keenness of the person in front of him: "It's true that it's not just about it, but we shouldn't only raise dozens of chickens in the end, so we can build the shed first to save ourselves from going back and making trouble."
Xie Zi'an nodded: "Okay. Are there any other shacks for domestic animals? "
"Some! But I have to think about it."
Actually, Qi Lele doesn't remember it. Today, I took advantage of the time of taking a bath and sneaked into the space to learn and sell it. The time is limited and I don't have time to check other information, so I have to wait for the next opportunity.
Xie Zi'an smiled and said, "No hurry, I'll draw this chicken coop first."
Seeing Xie Zi'an outline the chicken pan with just a few strokes, and then looking at the piece of things he drew that could not be seen as they were, Qi Lele silently stretched out his hand, trying to destroy the rice paper on the spot, but Xie Zi'an held it down.
"Do you want to learn?"
Qi Lele wanted to nod, but she knew it herself: "Forget it, I probably don't have this talent."
Xie Zian refused to listen, pulled her into his arms, and circled her and began to draw with her.
