Chapter 18 Preparing Pig Food for the Winter
"Shut up! Listen to the young master carefully."
Seeing the noisy scene, Fang Jielun gave a drink.
His voice gradually became low, and all eyes were focused on Fang Xing, making his throat feel a little dry.
Thinking that so many people will depend on themselves to live, Fang Xing made up his mind and said: "You all know that vegetables will be cut off every winter, so I decided that from this year, Fangjiazhuang will plant a large amount of Chinese cabbage, and chili."
It is easy to understand how to grow Chinese cabbage. Although after one winter, the Chinese cabbage in the cellar is only left with cabbage heart, but it is still a little green!
But what is chili?
"Master, what is chili?"
Someone asked right away.
Fang Xing casually took out a chili pepper, pointed to the bright red spot and said, "This is chili pepper. It is hotter than cornel and more fragrant than cornel. Everyone should plant it together with Chinese cabbage. In front of and behind the house, everyone I will plant all the vacant land.”
"But is this chili really better than cornel?"
Some people feel that this is not necessarily reliable.
Fang Jielun stared at the crowd, and if anyone dared to cause trouble, he swore that he would drive that family out.
The scene became quiet, and everyone was a little indifferent, because Fang Xing owned the land, and Fang Xing also owned the seeds. If they failed, everyone would just treat it as a waste of work.
Is strength worth money these days?
Seeing that no one objected, Fang Xing continued proudly: "There is one more thing, all farm households must raise pigs, as many as they can raise!"
After speaking, Fang Xing refused to look at those stunned faces, and said, "Everyone, don't worry about the pig food in winter, I have already made arrangements here."
Fang Xing was asked this question when he was talking to the housekeeper.
Winter is the most difficult season for livestock at this time. There is no food, no green food, which is a big problem.
But Fang Xing knew some knowledge.
"Recently, I see that everyone is fine! And it doesn't take much time to grow vegetables, so I started to mobilize the whole family to hunt pig food. When I come back, I will teach you how to cook pig food for the winter."
As the head of the family, when Fang Xing makes a decision, everyone must implement it to the letter, otherwise he can exercise various rights, including...
"I don't like setting up execution halls privately, that would make me feel that life has lost my awe."
After the 'staff meeting' was held, Fang Xing returned to the main courtyard and explained to Zhang Shuhui in this way.
And Zhang Shuhui was worried that the farm households would act obediently and disobey. After all, raising pigs requires manpower, and winter is the time when pigs are most likely to lose weight, and they need food to nourish them.
Everyone will have enough to eat, how can there be extra food to feed the pigs!
Zhang Shuhui went to see the few households that raised pigs in Zhuangzi, and most of them were skinny, so she was worried that no one would feed the pigs.
Fang Xing took the tea from Xiao Bai, took a sip and said, "Don't worry, I'll let them see the benefits."
Hearing what he said, Zhang Shuhui let it go.
No matter how much you raise pigs, you can't lose much. At worst, it's just as if you put money in the bank.
"That chili...husband, what are you going to use it for?"
Zhang Shuhui thought of chili peppers. She was forced to eat them by Fang Xing before, and she felt that the taste was much better than cornel, but she didn't need that much at home!
Fang Xing played with her black hair, and said playfully, "Just wait and see, I will collect all those chili peppers, and I promise to make a lot of money."
The next morning, when Fang Xing went to inspect again, he found that everyone in the village had gone out except the vegetable growers and the old man.
"Master, those people have gone out to look for pig food."
Fang Jielun said with some concern.
"very good."
Fang Xing felt that it was a good sign that his words could be implemented.
After returning home, Fang Xing hid in the study, and after checking that no one was there, he went into the warehouse.
In an open-air storage yard, Fang Xing found a mountain of plastic film, found a cart, unloaded a few large rolls, and with a heartbeat, the person and the plastic film appeared together in the study.
"Boom!"
When those rolls of film appeared, they immediately smashed the things on the desk, making a mess.
"Xin Laoqi!"
After shouting, Fang Xing slapped his forehead. He forgot that Laoqi Xin had already gone to the city to accompany the exam.
"My life is so miserable!"
When he came to this world, Fang Xing felt that he was lucky enough, but he had to suffer another crime for the sake of his family. Thinking about it made him feel a little tired.
In the afternoon, all the people in Fangjiazhuang, old and young, came back, and everyone's backs were full of pig food.
"Come, come, each family contributes a labor force, the young master is going to teach everyone how to make pig food for the winter."
The housekeeper held a small gong and yelled all over the Zhuangzi, and after a while a wave of strong men gathered in the northwest corner of the Zhuangzi, and the space between here and the main house was empty.
There were several large rolls of plastic film under Fang Xing's feet. He pointed to the white line drawn on the ground and said, "Everyone work together, dig a hole according to this line, and dig three meters deep."
"Three meters?"
Everyone was a little dazed, but Fang Xing suddenly realized. Somewhat angrily, he took out a tape measure, directly converted the size that appeared, and ordered people to start work immediately.
"Dig more to ensure that all pigs and livestock can grow fat and strong in winter."
Fang Xing patrolled the surrounding area, and when he saw someone slacking off, he stepped up.
Digging a pit is just a trivial matter for everyone, and several large stoves have been built on the side, and Hua Niang is cooking everyone's dinner with more than ten daughters-in-law.
Large pieces of pork are rolling in the cauldron, and the aroma is very strong.
Hua Niang looked at the seasoning wrapped in gauze, and said with some heartache: "Master, you really don't know how to live. It is good to have meat, but you are willing to put these expensive seasonings."
And on the big stove next to it, several daughter-in-laws are making pancakes.
"This flour is so white! And the young master is willing to put oil in it!?"
A little daughter-in-law picked up a plastic bucket and poured the vegetable oil into the pot, and the aroma of the oil wafted to the side where the pit was dug.
Seeing a few young boys looking over there, Fang Jielun scolded: "Hurry up and work, those who are lazy can only eat dry pancakes tonight, don't even think about eating meat and soup."
When the sky began to darken, Fang Xing called to stop. He told Fang Jielun, "Feed them and their families, at least a bowl of broth for each person. As for pancakes, let's go ahead and take care of it."
Fang Jielun agreed with a bitter face, but his heart ached.
Turning around, his voice was a little weak: "Every household, hurry up and call those who are still at home. The young master said that today, everyone will have a bowl of broth and oil cakes will fill them up."
boom!
The atmosphere exploded in an instant. Everyone looked at Fang Xing's back as he returned to the main courtyard, and asked Fang Jielun in a hurry.
"Steward Fang, you are not lying to us, are you?"
