Chapter 200: Raising sweet roe deer
Chapter 200 Raising Fragrant Roe Deer
The arrival of the three fragrant deer gave Xu Shiyan some more errands, and he had to find food for them.
Sweet deer like to eat moss, lichen, pine and fir young leaves.
In winter, moss and lichen are hard to find, but there are pine trees. Cut some from the surrounding woods and throw them in the pen to feed them.
Pair it with some cabbage leaves or something, and you can feed it.
Looking at it, the scale of Xu Shiyan's breeding is getting bigger and bigger, Xu Shixian and Xu Shian are also worried.
"Third son, if you raise these things, what can you do when you go down the mountain during the Chinese New Year?"
No one is watching from the mountain. These sables, otters, etc., must not be harmed by some beast?
If you go home, can there be so many things to feed? This thing is not very easy to arrange.
"Well, it's really not easy to handle, let's see when the time comes.
I don’t keep enough of them now, if not, I will get them down when I go down the mountain. "
Xu Shiyan also thought of this problem, but right now there is really no good way to solve it.
Anyway, it's just a small fight now, and it can be arranged anywhere.
He took some time to raise it first, let's talk about it after watching this round of scenes, and it should be contracted to the household by then.
If the team still uses him as a reference, then he will set up a breeding farm near here and hire two blind people to work there.
If he doesn’t need to continue to look at the ginseng, then he will go down the mountain. It happens that the mountain behind his house is very good, and a small breeding farm is enough.
Brother Xu Shixian didn't have any good ideas, this farm is too small, it's not worth working together as three brothers.
Of course, I don’t dare to make it big now, Xu Shiyan, who is playing small, is playing tricks.
If a large breeding farm is set up right now, hehe, it doesn’t necessarily belong to anyone.
"Well, brother, I have to remind you, don't make too much noise, otherwise it will make people jealous.
We must not forget the lessons we learned before, and we still have to be careful.
I'm looking at this policy, maybe it will change, take your time, if there is any chance, the three of us will work together and do something very well. "
On the other side, Xu Shian had to remind his younger brother.
Brothers are all good intentions, Xu Shiyan understands, and he knows it well, so he will keep it like this for now, and he is not in a hurry to expand.
Brothers Xu Shixian and Xu Shian are on the mountain, and they follow Xu Shiyan every day, either hunting pine nuts, hunting wild boars, hunting black blind men, picking badgers, etc., and they can always gain something.
It's a bit reluctant to leave, and doesn't want to go home.
Don’t blame them, the key is that the daughter-in-law goes to work to earn money, and they stay at home all day.
The daughter-in-law always complains that they don’t make money, but the vegetable team is not working this winter, so what are they doing?
It’s better to be on the mountain, even if you can’t earn money, you can still get something to eat.
The three brothers lived on the mountain until the end of December, and they really saved a lot of things.
On December 30th, Xu Shiyan went down the mountain, borrowed two horse sledges from the team, and pulled all these things down the mountain.
The musk deer, sable, and otter were all put into cages and placed on the first sledge.
The sledge in the middle pulls all kinds of food, mainly pine nuts, walnuts, mustard seeds, and wild boar and black blind meat.
Finally, four dogs pull a sledge, which is loaded with food for sables and otters.
Xu Chenghou and his wife have moved to a new house, but during the day they are still with Xu Shiyan.
Xu Chenghou was building furniture for his son in the east room, and Zhou Guilan helped watch Xu Haiyuan.
This kid is too naughty, Su Anying can't take care of him if she wants to take care of her daughter.
If Zhou Guilan didn't come to help, Su Anying and the two children might not even be able to eat.
As soon as the three brothers came back, Xu Chenghou and his wife were also very happy.
But just seeing the animals that Xu Shiyan brought back, I have a headache, how can I raise them?
"It's okay, just put them in the three rooms on the east. After the New Year, I will go up the mountain, and I have to take them up."
Xu Shiyan had already thought about this matter on the mountain. The three houses in the east are empty, and it is useless to keep them. They just happened to be used to house these animals first.
Let’s just bury it, anyway, there are no people living there, and it will be overturned in a few years.
The houses that live in people should be lived in by animals. Xu Chenghou and his wife couldn't understand it.
But there is no trick. Who told Xu Shiyan to get so many open-mouth beasts?
"Hey, I don't know what to say about you. Isn't it good to watch a ginseng and go hunting? Why do you have to keep these things?
People say that those who have a lot of money and hair are not counted. Can you make money by adjusting these things? Don't waste your time. "
Zhou Guilan was worried, because she was afraid that her son's busy work would be for nothing, and he would not be able to earn money if he was tired.
"Mom, if I say that I can definitely make money, you won't believe me.
Anyway, it takes a little effort, and nothing else is spent, so let’s keep it.
If it can really develop, it will definitely make money in the future, but it doesn't see much effect right now. "
Xu Shiyan smiled and didn't argue with his mother. Don't blame the old man, their cognition is different.
Developing farming is not easy in itself. If it cannot be scaled up, it is indeed not very profitable.
It is necessary to expand the scale and replace it from generation to generation in order to see profits.
Take your time, he is not in a hurry, the main thing is that now is not the time, just make a small fuss first, seize the opportunity, and talk about it later.
In this way, the otters and sables were put in cages, and a shelf was built and placed in the adobe landlord's house. The three musk deer were released from the cages and locked in the West Room.
At any rate, this is also a house, sheltered from wind and snow, much better than the shed outside.
After settling the animals and moving all the things down, Xu Shiyan and Xu Shian drove the horses and sledges back to the team.
Then back home, the whole family chatted together lively.
Xu Shiyan came back from the mountain for more than a month, and he was very happy to see his wife and children. First, he hugged Xu Haiyuan and threw him twice, making the little guy giggle.
"Son, you're sinking again, your father can't hold you anymore."
Xu Haiyuan eats well after weaning, and Zhou Guilan, Su Anying's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are also careful in feeding him.
Xu Shiyan hugged his son and threw it a few times, but his arms felt sore. Afraid of accidents, he quickly put down his son.
Where is Xu Haiyuan willing?
No one at home can coax him like this on normal days, Pi Xiaozi, who likes to play some exciting games, so he kept humming and asked Xu Shiyan to throw it again.
Xu Shiyan had no choice but to find another way to let his son step on his instep.
Xu Shiyan sat on the edge of the kang, grabbed his son, and let him swing on his feet.
Xu Haiyuan had never played like this before, so he immediately became happy. After playing for a while, Xu Haiyuan finally came down happily.
After coaxing the son, the girl just woke up, Su Anying fed the baby and changed the diaper.
Only then did Xu Shiyan stuff her daughter, and let him coax Su Anying to cook.
Looking at the little girl who is almost two months old, she looks much better than when she was just born.
The small face is rosy and fleshy, and a pair of **** eyes are shining brightly.
Such a small baby has grown eyelashes, which are quite long, which is really rare.
Xu Shiyan hugged his daughter, no matter how he looked at it, he liked it.
"Girl, grow up quickly. When you grow up, Dad will buy you a lot of beautiful dresses. He will definitely dress you up as the most beautiful little girl."
