Back at Luchang, Lu Lu proposed the Laolongkou wine he had brought. During the meal, he paid tribute to the old and young men working on the farm, as well as to the brothers, sisters and sisters present, thanking them for their support and support after more than half a year.
Hard.
Zhou Cuifen, Zhao Meiling, Pu Guiying and other women also showed a different kind of arrogance. They usually don't drink, but today they followed Lu Lu and drank a full bowl.
The second time the bee farm harvested honey some time ago, the harvest was not as good as the first time, but when it was delivered to the collection station, it was sold for tens of thousands of yuan.
They found that the money earned from the honey produced by a small bee farm was enough to maintain the monthly wages of so many people and the operation of the farm.
Let’s look at the grain again. The big corn cobs are so gratifying. After the harvest, apart from the required output, the rest can also generate a large amount of income.
It will take another two years for the forest frogs in the forest frog farm to generate income. There are not many sika deer in the deer farm, so there is no income yet, but those little furry things in the wild goose farm two months ago are now
It has grown several times and has long since put on its wings. If its wings had not been clipped and its tail feathers had not been clipped, it would have been able to fly long ago. It can still grow a lot before winter comes. It sells well and is another success.
Big money.
To this end, at Lu Lu's request, Raymond chose two big trees in front of an open space between the deer farm and the wild goose farm, and asked Zuo Songling to make a large blackboard hanging on it.
Paint has recorded all the income and expenditure of the farm since its establishment, one by one, in an open and transparent manner.
Everyone working on the farm knows this clearly.
Everyone is quite convinced about this.
For several militia brothers, the wages offered by Lu Lu Family Farm are no worse than other forest farms and farms, and are even much higher. It seems that at the end of the year, there will still be a lot of profit sharing. This makes them all regret it.
, when Lu Lu summoned them to participate, he did not agree.
Now many people are thinking about starting a small family farm in the new year. What they hope more is whether Lu Lu will expand the scale of the farm in the coming year so that they can join in and get a share of the pie.
Because they really can't figure out what they can do if they set up a family farm except growing crops.
As for Zhou Cuifen, Zhou Fangjing, Wang Dalong and other families who immediately followed the footsteps of Lu Lu and others, they gave them ten percent of their income. Based on the current income, each family can get several hundred yuan more.
Coupled with the grain, wild geese and other things that will follow, the income continues to expand.
All in all, I am full of expectations for the end of the year.
Of course, many people in the villages and forest farms came to see it.
Some people have seen people in Lu Lu making money by raising bees. Some people know how to keep bees. They also went to the mountains to get some bees to keep. They just kept them. The more they kept, the fewer the bees were. Either they were sick or
There are endless mine bees to kill, or they have run away, but you can't just keep guarding them for a few swarms of bees. People always have to eat, drink and spend money, and the result is that they will be useless.
Some people also saw Lu Lu raising forest frogs and jumping around. Knowing that the forest frogs were valuable, they went to the mountains to find them, caught some, and made a small pond to learn how to raise them. However, if they kept them, they would either die or be eaten by other wild animals.
After eating the food, the eggs were either not hatched or other frogs hatched.
…
Everything seemed simple, but when they actually did it, they found out how difficult it was.
When a group of people were eating and drinking together, Lu Lu listened to these things silently. Most of the time, he just smiled. He knew in his heart that if someone started to try, it meant that the minds of the people in the village began to become active.
He never underestimated any of them. On the contrary, he knew clearly that in a few years, many of them would figure out some tricks.
After a meal of wine, Lu Lu also let Chen Xiuqing, Zhang Shaofeng and others drink freely, just to have a good time.
"What are your plans next?"
The brothers sat at a table alone, drinking wine and eating meat, when Raymond asked.
"The rice is about to mature, and the next step is the corn. As the director of conservation, I still have to organize an autumn protection and clean up the wild boars, pheasants, hares, badgers, etc."
This is something that Zhang Shaofeng, as the security director, must complete every year.
"When the crops are harvested and it snows, our brothers will have to go out to find some sales for these wild geese and convert them into money.
In addition, when hunting in winter, you cannot miss this opportunity. Hunting bears and sables is a must-do.
Furthermore, the area of our deer farm is not small, but there are a few deer. I want to take you to the Daxingan Mountains. While hunting, we can catch some sika deer and bring them back to raise. This is what we will do next this year.
.”
Lu Lu also briefly explained his arrangements. He turned to Raymond and smiled: "During the winter hunting season, big brother can also show off his skills. At that time, the geese will be put into the breeding farm and there is no need to release them. They will ensure warmth.
Food and water are provided by brother and sister Zhou Cuifen, Zhou Fangjing, and Lin Yujuan. I can rest assured, just prepare more firewood and coal.
The wood frogs also return to the overwintering pond to overwinter, so you don’t need to worry about it. The only thing you need to pay attention to is that the wood frogs hibernate in the water, so the overwintering pond needs to be dug deeper, and you have to find a way to ensure that the water in the frozen overwintering pond flows.
, ensuring adequate oxygen supply. This is also something that needs to be considered and done.”
"Brother Lu, I see that those toads and the like spend the winter in soil holes, but the forest frogs stay at the bottom of the water. How do they inhale? Will they not drown?" Chen Xiuqing interrupted and asked him.
Very curious question.
"The wood frog breathes with its lungs when it comes out of the water. When it enters the water during the winter, it converts it into skin breathing. Its skin has a special ability to decompose oxygen in the water. You just need to know. I will follow you for details.
You can't tell clearly.
But it is precisely for this reason that the water must have sufficient oxygen supply and allow the water to move. Otherwise, they will die lying on the bottom of the water without eating. Just like those rivers, the surface is frozen, but the water below is frozen.
The water is still flowing. Of course, the depth of the overwintering pool can also be increased to ensure that there is enough water in the pool. This can also be solved by digging a large ice cave."
Lu Lu explained briefly and expressed his thoughts.
Raymond listened carefully and took these things to heart: "This road will be repaired in a short time, and then we will immediately organize people to start working on the winter pond. It is big enough and deep enough, right? Mud ditch
There is not enough water in it, and it will definitely freeze in winter... How can we make the water move?"
He was somewhat in trouble, there was no electricity or water pump...
Lu Lu smiled slightly: "Isn't there a ditch with water flowing all year round? We have been to the source of the water. It is at a high place. We can just find a solution from there."
After hearing this, Raymond was stunned for a moment, and then felt a sudden realization.
A group of people chatted while eating. It was not until evening that Meng Zhaohua drove a group of people in a car and sent them home.
Lu Lu also drank too much. Fortunately, the wine was not bad. Meng Zhaohua carried him on his back and carried him to the kang at home, where he fell asleep soundly.
During this sleep, he slept until midnight, suddenly woke up, and saw Chen Xiuyu hugging the child, sleeping peacefully next to him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
After getting up and making myself a cup of honey water, I then returned to the bedroom to continue sleeping. However, I saw Chen Xiuyu leaning on the kang with her arms folded and looking at herself: "Brother Lu, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?
?”
Lu Lu looked at Chen Xiuyu and couldn't help rolling his eyes at her: "It's because I feel uncomfortable. I feel very uncomfortable!"
"What's wrong?" Chen Xiuyu sat up straight and asked with concern.
"What did you say?" Lu Lu asked back.
Chen Xiuyu looked confused when asked, then reached out and touched Lu Lu's forehead, and then her own forehead: "I don't have a fever!"
"You didn't tell me about the bear tying in the bee farm when I came back. If I hadn't gone to the farm today and heard Brother Meng talk about it, I wouldn't have known about it!" Lu Lu said angrily.
"Aren't I afraid that you will worry? Besides, look at me and the child, aren't we fine? I have beaten wolves and tied up blind bears..."
Sure enough, Chen Xiuyu started to play the harp again.
However, just as she was halfway through her words, she was interrupted by Lu Lu: "I think you need to be beaten..."
As a result, Chen Xiuyu was beaten severely for more than ten minutes until both of them collapsed on the kang from exhaustion.
"When you go to the farm in the future, please bring the semi-automatic with you!" Lu Lu hugged Chen Xiuyu and warned him.
Chen Xiuyu nodded slightly: "Yes!"
Some things are unavoidable and accidents happen all the time. Lu Lu can only ask Chen Xiuyu to be armed. With her marksmanship and spirituality, Lu Lu believes that she will have enough ability to deal with these accidents.
The next day, Lu Lu slept until the sun was shining on his buttocks.
This was the most comfortable night he had slept in a while, and he had regained a lot of energy, but the residual power of the alcohol was still there, making his head a little dizzy.
He looked out the window and saw Chen Xiuyu spreading corn to feed the stupid chickens in the yard. Three lynxes were squatting aside, still yawning.
Lu Lu was not in a hurry to get up. He looked at the child lying next to him, rolling his eyes and looking around. He kicked his legs from time to time and raised his two little hands. He stretched out a finger towards the child and found that the little guy had already learned how to do it.
When Lu Lu shook his fingers, he made the little guy grin.
It wasn't until more than half an hour later that his mind was completely clear, he got up, cleaned the child's urine, and seeing that it was still a little cold outside, he tied the child in swaddling clothes and carried him out.
Seeing Lu Lu coming out, Chen Xiuyu, who was preparing food for the deer, asked with a smile: "Why don't you sleep more?"
"That's almost it. I've slept for more than ten hours since dusk last night. If I continue to sleep, my body will be sore!"
Lu Lu simply responded and walked to Chen Xiuyu's side, watching her work.
Deer deer have different food selectivity in different seasons. They like potato vine in summer and autumn, privet and holly in winter, and lettuce and spurge in spring.
There should be no less than five kinds of food prepared at a time, which is quite troublesome. Fortunately, these grass leaves are relatively easy to obtain, and there is enough space for movement in the breeding farm. The breeding went smoothly.
Occasionally, a gust of mountain wind blew by, and Lu Lu smelled a fishy smell that sounded like the root of a broken ear. He couldn't help but feel a little happy. He knew that this was when the male musk deer entered estrus and began to secrete musk. It won't be long before he can take the musk.
In fact, musk can easily cause miscarriage in pregnant women, which is more likely to be rumored in palace dramas.
It has the effect of assisting pregnant women during childbirth, but it is not closely related to pregnancy and abortion. Otherwise, doctors only need to let people smell musk to complete the abortion.
Besides, many high-end perfumes are related to musk. With so many people using them, wouldn’t it be very dangerous?
Young deer deer mature sexually after eighteen months, and the best time to harvest musk deer is from the third year.
For Lu Lu, the number of deer deer in Caodianzi will increase a lot in the third year.
There are really not many deer deer in Xing'an Mountains, so it's great to be able to get so many to raise. The key is that getting musk deer and selling it at a high price is a big hassle, and it's really hard to take care of.
You can't make big money with them, it depends on whether the sales go smoothly.
Seeing that the weather was fine, Lu Lu went to take out the four mallets that had been drying in the house for another night, and hung them under the eaves to dry. After this period of drying, the four mallets shrank a lot.
While Chen Xiuyu was busy, Lu Lu put the sleeping child in his arms to lie down in the car and started making breakfast.
After Ma Jinlan and Mrs. Duan brought the fodder to Caodianzi and had a meal together, Lu Lu used the carriage that Ma Jinlan drove to load the cedar wood he bought into the car and took it to Zuo Songling's home.
The weather is getting colder, so in order to take a comfortable bath, you have to prepare the bathtub early!
