Chapter 302 The New Farm Tools Brought By Xiao Chong
Lin Wanwan was not lying when she said that ducklings were hatched. The male duck was originally in her plan, and its useful life was the same as that of the female duck, which was one year.
The male to female ratio of Kangbei ducks is 1:15, the fertilization rate of eggs is 85%, and the hatching rate is over 80%.
Regarding the breeding technology of Kangbei duck, Lin Wanwan had specially bought information in modern times. When she bought the Silla maids this time, she also bought two more maids who were responsible for managing the family's livestock.
It is said that she is a rough girl, but in fact, for Lin Wanwan, she is training for breeding technical talents, so except for the monthly salary being less, the rest of the treatment is no worse than others.
The two of them started by learning about the lighting and feeding of duck chicks, the temperature of the duck house, and the management points in different seasons. They treated raising poultry, cattle, horses, and sheep as a matter of knowledge.
Naturally, Xiao Qingyu's animal army was gradually handed over to the care of two people - except for Hai Dongqing, who was the most loyal.
Lin Wanwan's team in Xiangjun's family has developed little by little. She has the final say on all rules and no one dares to raise objections.
At home, Huanong is mainly in charge of the kitchen, Yunshang is in charge of the inner courtyard, and Hongyan is the hair-combing maid.
Then there are Sasao's wife and grandma, and the two newly bought Silla maids who are responsible for breeding. Lin Wanwan named them one Ranxiang and Moxiang.
Ah Jing, a mute girl, has a low sense of existence, but she has the ability to control animals.
Lin Wanwan arranged for her to live in a dormitory with Ranxiang and Moxiang, hoping that they could enhance their relationship and learn from each other by spending time together day and night.
Although the remaining Heng Wu is a female musician, she is good at playing chess, calligraphy and painting, and is most respected by Lin Wanwan, and is a master of the academy.
Officially, Heng Wu is a lowly female musician, but in fact, in Linjiazhuang, she is very respected by the clan members. After all, she is a master who teaches music and calligraphy.
People in the world respect teachers and Taoism. This has been the case since ancient times, and Linjiazhuang is no exception.
Of course, it is not possible in a majestic city like Chang'an to treat baseness as virtue, but Lin Wanwan is located on the remote seaside of Luan County. Even the local officials will not go to the countryside to meddle in other people's business. Who can go against her!
Heng Wu's status is based on Lin Wanwan's will. She is the absolute master of the family.
Let's talk about the ducklings. As soon as the news got out, the wealthy families in the clan came to Lin Wanwan to buy ducklings.
The price of a duckling in Sanwen is the same as that of ordinary ducklings on the market, but everyone knows that this duckling lays many eggs! It is definitely a great value!
Anyone who has some spare money must come and buy it. Those who don't have any spare money can exchange it for freshly dried isinglass, fish fish, etc. Anyway, Lin Wanwan has already said that she will accept all these things.
People in the tribe also know that Lin Wanwan really likes seafood.
Because of Lin Wanwan's acquisition, everyone's life has become much easier.
Hey, Lin Wanwan would be embarrassed if she exchanged isinglass for ducklings.
Now Lin Wanwan's mentality as a nouveau riche has gradually adjusted. She is not as anxious to make money as she was last year, so she has not sold any of the new goodies she got these days.
For example, only half of the white truffles are sold, and most of the fish maws are collected and eaten for oneself. Especially the golden anchovy maws, as long as they are well preserved, they can be hidden for decades without any problem.
After the children finished school in the afternoon, Lin Wanwan took Xiao Qingyu to continue practicing the piano, and Heng Wu served as a sparring partner...
With Lin Wanwan as her company, little Qingyu no longer feels bored playing the harp. As long as her mother is willing to accompany her, she will be very interested in anything she does.
This may be the same for children in ancient and modern times.
The two happily practiced the piano together. When Xiao Yixun saw how lively they played, he felt inexplicably sour, and finally proposed to learn together.
Xiao Yixun used to learn the guqin, and this was his first time learning the konghou, but because of his music theory skills, he learned it as quickly as Lin Wanwan.
For Hengwu, it is herding to herd one sheep or herd a group of sheep. Anyway, there are many konghous in the house.
A few people were practicing the piano in the verandah and it was busy, and there was another movement at the hanging flower gate.
Xiao Chong, who was striding over with his bay-red horse in the breeze, was still so handsome.
A green shirt was blowing in the wind, he was leisurely and calm, and the whole courtyard seemed to be filled with mist due to his appearance.
"My cousin is so elegant, Xiao is so polite." Xiao Chong handed the reins of the horse to Kunlun and stood outside the verandah and gave Lin Wanwan a cross-hand salute.
The moment Lin Wanwan and Heng Wu saw Xiao Chong, they left the stone bench and stood up to salute.
Not to mention the maids and servants waiting around.
Xiao Qingyu also bowed reluctantly under Lin Wanwan's gaze.
Only the snow-white Xiao Yixun was still sitting there, his smiling face still covered with a layer of frost, with unwelcome written all over his face.
But obviously, Xiao Chong didn't care about the thoughts of a guest girl like her, and the other party's cold eyes had no harmful effect on him at all.
They are both from the Xiao family in Nanlanling, but they belong to two separate families, so they cannot be considered close.
Compared to Lin Wanwan, a distant cousin who is thousands of miles apart, Xiao Yixun, a girl from the clan, is indeed closer. But in fact, Xiao Chong is obviously closer to Lin Wanwan.
The closeness between people is not simply based on blood ties.
Xiao Yixun's impatience with Xiao Chong was clearly written on his face. Although Xiao Chong no longer insisted on sending her back to Chang'an because of the help she had received from him, he was too lazy to warm up to her.
He put his head on the cold buttocks, saluted her indifferently, and then ignored her.
Lin Wanwan saluted and stood up, and said calmly: "Cousin, I received your assassination yesterday and thought you would come at noon. It's getting late now."
"I have a lot of things to do today, so I'm a little late. My cousin, please forgive me." After Xiao Chong said that, he turned to look at Shuqi who was following behind him, and a young man whom Lin Wanwan looked familiar to.
Both of them were carrying heavy loads on their horses. After receiving Xiao Chong's gaze, they immediately unloaded their things without saying a word and began to assemble them in an orderly manner.
Lin Wanwan and others quietly watched them working. In a short time, a plow was assembled and displayed in front of everyone.
"This... Quyuanli?" Lin Wanwan murmured, and then quickly said, "Cousin, please wait a moment."
After saying that, she lifted up the hem of her skirt and floated away like a butterfly. She walked up the stairs "Deng Deng Deng". Xiao Qingyu wanted to follow but was hugged by Yun Shang.
After entering the small study next to the bedroom on the second floor, Lin Wanwan bolted the door, opened the space-time door and returned to the modern small villa.
Without a moment's delay, she opened her laptop and read Qu Yuuli's information.
There are so many resources on the Internet, and you can even read them all for free. For those like Lin Wanwan who don’t mind spending some money to buy a membership, there is an explosion of available information.
She directly bought a paper on the development of agricultural tools on CNKI, then quickly opened it to find a picture of a curved shaft plow, and compared it with the real thing she just saw in her mind. It was indeed very close.
"Ha!" Lin Wanwan laughed, her butterfly wings flapped quite big! The Quyuan plow, which only appeared in Jiangdong in the late Tang Dynasty, actually appeared in the hands of Xiao Chong in the early Tang Dynasty. This chapter has been completed!
