The thank-you gifts sent by these neighboring villages include ten pigs and eight sheep. Where can I kill them all in a short while?

I can only raise it first.

Since he wanted to raise it, Wei Renshi planned to raise it a little more refined.

Not to mention what you want in the future, even if you keep your own finer meat, it will taste better.

To raise these things, you have to be rude first.

The castration of livestock and poultry not only includes both male livestock and poultry, but also female livestock and poultry.

Castration of livestock and poultry is to remove the reproductive gonads of livestock and poultry, that is, to remove the ** or ovaries.

Especially pigs, boars and sows lose their sexual physiological functions after castration, their temperament becomes gentle, and their aggressiveness will be significantly reduced, which is convenient for breeding and management. They can no longer separate male and females, but directly raise them in groups to reduce labor and costs.

In addition, castration can also make the meat of livestock and poultry more delicate and has no fishy smell. It can convert a large amount of energy originally used to supply the reproduction to promote growth, which is conducive to fattening, shorten the feeding cycle, eliminate bad varieties, and facilitate breeding, etc.

In fact, castrated pigs appeared as early as the Western Zhou Dynasty. In the "Book of Changes: Dazu Gua", there is a saying that "the tooth of a pig is auspicious". It means that the castrated pigs are no longer aggressive and their teeth are not enough to be afraid, so they are auspicious.

However, the purpose of castrating pigs here is to reduce their aggression or for sacrifices. However, it is not applied to the breeding industry.

It was not until the Song Dynasty that the phenomenon of eating pork on a larger scale made people discover the role of castration on breeding livestock and poultry.

So at this time there should be people who know how to castrate these pigs.

Wei Renshi thought about it and turned to look at Zheng Lizheng. However, he saw Zheng Lizheng staring at him in disbelief.

"Castration?! What are you doing? What do you want to do?!" Zheng Lizheng looked frightened.

"These pigs can't be finished at once, so I have to raise them." Wei Renshi said to him: "If you raise a pig, you can only leave one breeding pig. A few sows are so strong, and the others are all slaughtered. After the pigs are not only fast and fat, but also have mellow and odorless meat... Tsk, this is my unique secret to breeding."

Zheng Lizheng looked at Wei Renshi and the pigs, and said with suspicion: "Can you still have these benefits if you castrate?"

"Isn't that true?" Wei Renshi clapped his hands and said, "I have to build a pigpen before I can build my house."

"What's the problem? I'll shout Boss Shi later. The pigpen will be out after you finish eating." Zheng Lizheng said with a smile.

"My pigpen is not ordinary," Wei Renshi said: "What I built was called a breeding farm."

"No matter what your name is, you will still raise some chickens, pigs, dogs, and pigs." Zheng Lizheng smiled and said, "By the way, I'll give you the plunder to the county government. The county master will report it, but it will take some time."

"I'm not in a hurry," Wei Renshi said: "Uncle Zheng, you can farm with me and raise livestock. We can get together for five or five years. Your family business will catch up with you and your brothers in less than two years."

"Can you save your family business by farming and raising livestock so quickly?" Zheng Lizheng said in surprise.

"It depends on who planted and raised it." Wei Renshi said: "It may not be possible for others to come, but I can do it."

"Wei Langjun is a kind-hearted person." Zheng Lizheng smiled and said, "Then I won't refuse Wei Langjun's support. Wei Langjun has a lot of things all day long, so I will tell someone what to do. I will take care of Changgu for Wei Langjun."

"Thank you, Uncle Zheng." Wei Ren agreed to see that Zheng Lizheng understood what he meant, so he smiled.

Zheng Lizheng said again: "The castration person... I really don't know much about this. But you can go and inquire, I think you can find out."

Wei Renshi nodded and said, "This matter is crucial. If you really can't inquire, you can only find a pig slaughter. Let's explore it ourselves."

Zheng Li suddenly showed a look of disgust on his face and said, "Don't worry! Even if he finds Luoyang, he must find it!"

"Also, after rain in each village for several years, there must be wheat that cannot be sprouted. Uncle Zheng, please ask me and I will be willing to purchase a large amount of these sprouted wheat." Wei Renshi said again.

"Sprouting wheat? What to collect it?" Zheng Lizheng asked.

"It's actually very useful. For example, it can be used as feed." Wei Renshi replied: "It can actually make wine, but I don't know if you can get used to that alternative taste."

"That's easy to say." Zheng Lizheng nodded and said, "Wei Langjun is really amazing. These things that no one wants can still come in handy when Wei Langjun."

Wei Renshi grinned and the two went home together.

I was not idle at night, so I drew the specifications of the pig house I wanted to build. When the person Jiao Haiqing was looking for came, I would start building a breeding farm and repairing a few houses, and at the same time, I would also repair the house at home.

The next morning, Wei Renshi got up and smelled the fragrance of the yard. After eating, he praised Xier's craftsmanship to get better and better. Then he left the house, borrowed a donkey cart, and took Boss Shi to Fuchang City to find a blacksmith.

The blacksmith had indeed made the coal stove. Wei Renshi took a closer look. The blacksmith had good skills, made tightly and beautiful in shape, almost the same as the patterns he drew. He also put up iron pipes and elbows, which were also made just right, tight and not dead.

The manual briquette was also made, and it was a bit heavy. Wei Renshi lifted it, and it felt like it was good.

The kettle used in conjunction with the coal stove is also very good. The handle also wrapped a layer of cork, and the cork is wrapped with several layers of cloth, which is very useful.

"Master Zhang, you're so skillful." Wei Renshi came to find a blacksmith to work a lot of things, so he was familiar with the blacksmith. After seeing it, he praised it.

"Thank you to Xiaolang to take care of the business." Zhang Blacksmith said with a smile.

Zhang Blacksmith helped Boss Shi lift the coal stove onto the donkey cart. Wei Renshi found a earthen kiln outside the city. The inner stove was also ready. Wei Renshi took it directly and tried it in front of the coal stove. He then slammed the outside a little, and then he could steadily and tightly put it in, just put it on the horizontal iron net inside the coal stove.

The inner stove is very important, it can isolate heat and lock the heat inside the inner stove. If there is no such layer of yellow mud inner stove, there will be no one sitting next to the coal stove.

I also tried the briquet with the yellow mud on the kiln, and the embryos that were beaten can be put into the inner stove by chance, which is perfect.

In this way, the coal stove is made.

He pulled the coal stove back in a donkey cart and unloaded it. Wei Renshi said to Boss Shi: "Let's go with the coal next."

The donkey cart arrived next to him, and the family also came to see the fun.

Boss Shi's grandson came with Zhang Changgui who was pointing at the wooden stick. Xi'er also brought some ice water to everyone.

"The charcoal must be made into powder first. There is a water mill by the river, so pull the charcoal to the top first." Wei Renshi said.

"Okay." Zhang Changgui walked to the basket with a wooden stick, leaning against the wooden stick, grabbed the rope on the basket with one hand and lifted it up. He lifted the basket of charcoal to half of his body, and then placed it on the donkey cargo.

"Wow!" Wei Renshi was shocked.

This basket of charcoal costs about 300 kilograms!

Is this still a human?

Everyone drove the donkey cart to the river, hammered the charcoal into powder with a water pestle, and swept it back.

The dried river mud is ready a few days ago. Mix the coal powder and water in a ratio of one to ten, and mix it into a coal paste. Then mix it in the ratio of two shishale coal paste and one shishale soil and stir.

"Uncle Shi, come and beat coal." Wei Renshi gave the coal-beating machine to Boss Shi.

Boss Shi pressed the briquette against the adjusted coal paste, and then pushed out the formed honeycomb coal from the open space next to him.

The sun in the afternoon was still very poisonous. Under the scorching sun, everyone just drank a few bowls of ice water. After chatting for a while, the honeycomb coals that were made were dried.

"It's time to try the coal stove!" Wei Renshi shouted, and everyone came over immediately, carried the two air pipes, the coal stove and honeycomb coal into the donkey cart, and went home.

After searching for a location, Wei Renshi asked them to place the coal stove. Then, under Wei Renshi's command, several people worked together to connect the two pipes through elbows, connecting the coal stove one end and extending the other end outside.

Burn a fire outside. The charcoal was burning red in a few minutes. A piece of honeycomb coal was placed in the coal stove, covered with red charcoal pieces, and then a piece of honeycomb coal went up to the top. The ventilation fire door below opened, and Xier took the palm fan and fanned it in the fire door. Soon, the coal on it turned red. Soon, a flame appeared.

Seeing the flames on the honeycomb coal gradually rising, Wei Renshi put another piece up, then covered the round cover on it, and placed the kettle on it.
Chapter completed!
