Chapter 356 Mobilizing the Village to Raise Pigs

"When we have more food in the future, I think no one will want to eat bean dregs. The water used to wash the pot is useless. We don't know where to drain it. Your family has also used our water and bean dregs these days. How do you think the pigs are eating?"

Su Wanwan asked directly.

I believe the village head can understand what she means.

Liu Daping naturally understood what she meant and said in surprise:

"You want to mobilize the villagers to raise pigs to consume the bean dregs and water used to wash pots in the workshop? This is a good thing! A great thing!"

He became even more excited when he heard this.

These days, the pigs in his family have been eating the water used to wash pots in the workshop mixed with grass, wheat bran and the like. He also bought some bean dregs, dried them and mixed some of them in. The pigs are enjoying the food very much.

And you can see with the naked eye that the pigs are growing very fast these days, and they are plump and pleasing to the eye.

When I raised pigs before, they never grew so fat and were almost ready to be slaughtered.

He felt that his family was making the right decision by following Shen Yuan's family in raising pigs. Castration of pigs could indeed make them grow faster and gain weight more easily. Castrated pigs also stopped fighting.

"Don't tell me, my two pigs will grow to more than 100 kilograms by the time of the Chinese New Year. In the past, they only weighed 60 or 70 kilograms throughout the year. This will double!"

Liu Daping showed a look of delight.

Su Wanwan thought that the village chief's prediction was quite low. In ancient times, people were reluctant to feed pigs with grains and only fed them wheat bran and pig grass. It was considered good if they grew to 60 or 70 kilograms.

However, although there is still no feed now, we have pot washing water and tofu dregs. Next year, when there is a good harvest of sweet potatoes and corn, we can also feed them corn bran and sweet potato peels, and it will be no problem for them to grow to 200 kilograms.

Of course, it is still far behind the modern practice of raising a fat pig weighing 300 kilograms in just a few months. But compared with the current pig farming situation, more than 100 kilograms is really excellent and can be sold for a lot of money.

Su Wanwan nodded:

"Yes, if anyone in the village raises pigs, the water for washing pots is free, and the bean dregs are charged for one copper coin for two buckets, which are only used to feed the pigs in the village. In fact, after our corn and sweet potato harvest next year, corn bran and sweet potato peels can also be used to feed pigs, so there is no need to worry about the pigs having nothing to eat."

Hearing her say this, Liu Daping stood up excitedly.

"Shen Yuan's wife, I have nothing to say. You are the benefactor of our Daliushu Village. You and Shen Yuan treat the villagers so well. I want to thank you on behalf of the villagers."

Liu Daping was at a loss as to what to do with Su Wanwan. A grown man with grandchildren didn't know how to express his gratitude.

Su Wanwan also stood up.

"We are also from Daliushu Village, this is as it should be. Moreover, our villagers also take good care of us. Uncle Liu, you don't have to be polite. We will still rely on the village in the future."

Liu Daping's eyes were red.

He didn't think the villagers took care of them. Maybe it was because the villagers of Daliushu were harmonious, so everyone in the village loved and helped each other?

Well, he is so lucky to be the head of Daliushu Village.

We are so fortunate that Daliushu Village has Shen Yuan and his wife, the gods of wealth, in charge.

He Yinghong didn't say a word. After she left the house, she excitedly said to Su Wanwan:

"Sister-in-law, I admire you. You are a role model for us women. When I go home, I will tell my parents that we will also raise pigs."

The way my sister-in-law talked to the head of the village was so charming. She loved my sister-in-law so much.

She couldn't continue to live in a muddle-headed way. She had to learn from her sister-in-law that women could also accomplish great things.

His father doesn't raise pigs, so she does it.

She just went to see the pigs at the headman's house. Wow, she had never seen such big and fat pigs.

He Yinghong was in a hurry and had forgotten the unpleasantness of the meeting. She was determined to go back to discuss the pig-raising matter with her parents.

Liu Daping even directly convened a meeting of several clan leaders, talked about the issue of raising pigs, and asked them to go to the clan themselves to discuss it. He would not force them, and those who were willing to raise pigs could do so.

A family only needs to raise three or five, and there is no need to raise too many.

After selling sweet potatoes, every household now has money, and people with vision will definitely be willing to buy piglets.

The construction industry in the village was booming. A school was being built, my aunt's family built a sweet potato workshop, many households began to build pig pens and buy piglets, and most people worked in workshops. When they had time, the elderly and children would go to the workshops to do packaging work.

It can be said that there is no idle person in Daliushu Village, and there are not even enough houses, so the school even found people from other villages to build houses.

The literacy class at the ancestral hall has also started. Su Wanwan found that all the young people in the workshop have gone to learn. Mr. Meng’s class only lasts one hour every day, and the class is always full.

Daliushu Village was thriving, but it was also in a state of chaos. Everyone was proud of being busy and having work to do, and of the young people in their family learning a few more words.

I’m afraid the only one who is free is Su Wanwan.

However, she had been busy for more than half a month, much busier than when she first came to Daliushu Village. Now that she had some free time, she prepared to prepare some food.

I have been too busy lately and have been eating in the cafeteria. The two little ones also eat in the cafeteria with them. It is true that I haven’t had a big meal for a long time.

Shen Yuan seems to have become busier since he went to the county town to send Shen Zhao back last time. He always goes to the county town to deliver goods, purchase beans, and run a workshop. He works hard in all these things, so it's time to reward him.

Su Wanwan took out a few cans of food and two bottles of white wine from the space.

Then prepare the meal.

It is now the end of October and the weather is getting colder. It was a bit gloomy today, which was perfect for eating hotpot.

It has been a long time since she last had hotpot. Last time, she asked Bai Shao to make her a shuangxiang hotpot, but she hasn't used it yet.

Since we were eating at home, of course the dishes were rich and all the dishes that could be found in the space were taken out.

There are Sichuan rice noodles, shrimp balls, and various meatballs. The mutton was brought back from the county town by Shen Yuan yesterday and was frozen in the space refrigerator so that it can be cut into thin slices.

Also indispensable are home-grown bean curd, mushrooms, green vegetables and the like. In short, the samples are complete.

Make half of the hotpot bone soup and half spicy food, then add sesame paste for dipping and you're done.

When Su Wanwan had prepared all these, Shen Yuan came back from the county town, bringing with him two servants who were said to be able to write and were also bought from human traffickers.

Except for Mr. Wang, everyone else in the workshop is still using their spare time to learn to read, but this is not something that can be learned overnight.

However, daily shipments and purchases, as well as various other items, all need to be registered and recorded. His wife is in charge of the accounting for the time being, but it is a bit too much for Xiucai to handle the record keeping alone, so he simply bought two people who can write.

Shen Yuan directly asked Aunt Huang to take the two of them to the workshop to settle down, and that Mr. Wang would only need to take care of them for a few days tomorrow.

Su Wanwan felt that Shen Yuan was very thoughtful. In the past few days, she had received more and more documents, but they were also delayed. After all, Mr. Wang was a little older, and he could not bear to be so busy all of a sudden, and it was easy for him to make mistakes.

Although those young people have recently attended literacy classes, they can only recognize words and their handwriting is as bad as a dog's. It is not as beautiful as Xiao Yunyi's. These days, Xiao Yunyi has been helping Xiucai to take notes.

Shen Yuan took out some more things from the carriage, including snacks and canapes.

Especially the bag of ideas, which was put back in her room specifically for her.

She didn't know what kind of snack it was. The last time she bought it in the county town, she found it quite delicious and crispy, so she ate a few more pieces. She didn't expect Shen Yuan to be so thoughtful and take it to heart.

It was obvious that this food was bought specially for her. Su Wanwan felt sweet in her heart and immediately called him to come over to eat.
