Feng Yong naturally didn't know that he had been judged as a womanizer. Now he is immersed in the joy of success.
This year's summer plowing went very smoothly, much faster than in previous years. The success of Quyuanli greatly enhanced Butler Zhao's confidence in the breeding business. As soon as he finished the summer plowing, he began to travel to surrounding villages and towns to buy chickens.
Duck. That’s right, the Feng family’s breeding business has already expanded to ducks before it officially started.
Now Feng Yong finally understands why Butler Zhao was so horrified when he said he wanted to raise 300 chickens. In this troubled world, even in Shu, which has suffered the least war, and the homes of people with surplus food, at most they can
If you raise four or five chickens, it is simply impossible to have more chickens.
Butler Zhao traveled all over the surrounding villages and towns, and received more than forty to fifty chickens, and there were chickens of all ages, from young chicks to old hens. The yards specially set up to raise chickens were of different sizes.
The roosters and hens were clucking and chicken feathers were flying all over the courtyard. Feng Yong sighed deeply. There is still a long way to go to improve living conditions!
"Master, there are only so many chickens that can be harvested in these four weeks. The old servant will go to the city the next day to see if he can collect more." The butler seemed to feel very guilty for not completing the task ordered by the master, and thought
You have to work hard to remedy it.
"No need, Uncle Zhao, let's see which ones still have ducks. If there are not enough chickens, then we will raise ducks too." Feng Yong is not the kind of person who is ignorant. In the countryside, he can only receive so much. In the city,
No matter how much you look at it, it's impossible to say how many there are.
However, it seems that duck feathers can be used to make down jackets!
These days, there is no heating. In the winter, rich people only have fur clothes to keep warm. Even worse, they don’t seem to have good clothes to protect themselves from the cold. As for the common people, haha, it would be nice to have a straw cover. I remember when I was a child, my family would kill chickens and ducks.
The shed hair was kept and dried in the sun, waiting to be collected by the tatters. The money sold was not small for the farmers at that time. At least they had enough money to buy candies and fruits during the New Year and festivals.
I don’t know if this down jacket can be made with the current technology?
No matter what, it’s never wrong to give it a try.
Thinking of this, Feng Yong became more and more convinced of the importance of raising ducks. At this time, he didn’t know whether cotton had been introduced to China. Even if it had been introduced, it is estimated that only a very small number of people knew about it, and even if cotton is now put in
In front of Feng Yong, he had no time to grow cotton and make quilts.
Feng Yong was afraid of the cold. In his previous life, he was originally from the south, but due to various reasons, he went to the north when he grew up. He even spent a long time in Northern Xinjiang, which was covered with ice and snow for half the year, so at first he
He was afraid of being cold. Even though he adapted later, the cold winter still left a shadow in his heart.
So he suddenly felt that it was imperative to raise ducks, and the sooner the better!
Feng Yong imagined a winter without heating, suddenly shuddered, turned his head and said seriously to the housekeeper: "Uncle Zhao, I still need to let you work on this matter, and then collect the ducks. The more ducks the better."
"
Butler Zhao nodded in agreement and looked at Yaomei who was busy in the yard with a little awe in his eyes.
In his opinion, the master's method is simply to use some unknown method to conjure chicken food out of thin air, which is not much different from the legendary magical method of turning stone into gold. And Yaomei can actually learn this
The methods of the gods are different from those of ordinary people. No wonder the host wants to teach her how to read and write!
Although the chicken raising business encountered unexpected difficulties from the beginning, Feng Yong still made timely remedies. Not being able to receive enough chickens and ducks was not a problem at all for Feng Yong.
Children who come from rural areas don’t know anything else. Don’t they even know this?
When I was a child, most of the chickens and ducks that were killed during Chinese New Year and festivals were actually raised at home. The source of the chickens and ducks was not bought from the market at first, but from a neighbor who had an old hen in a nest ready to hatch chicks.
Just say hello to that family, and either produce eggs yourself and ask other people's old hens to help hatch more eggs, or directly ask them to hatch more eggs in advance, and then come to the door to exchange for chicks after the chicks come out.
It was not until life improved later that the concept of broiler and laying hens came into being, and different types of chickens appeared on the market. At that time, everyone was not short of money, and the number of old hens being asked to help gradually became less common.
Feng Yong told Yaomei to pay attention to the situation of the chickens. If he found any old hens with nesting behavior, he would immediately single them out, and then pick out a dozen hatching eggs for them to hatch. Farmers generally raise hens for laying eggs.
The hen in the nest immediately tried to get it to wake up, but Feng Yong said that there could be more hens in the nest.
Today's chickens are not the laying hens and broilers that were purposefully cultivated after countless generations of improvements. Basically, after laying a certain number of eggs, they will have nesting behavior. The older the chickens are, the more frequent the nesting behavior will be.
Moreover, the hatched chicks can also be taken care of by the old hen, so there is no need for manual care.
Of course, the disadvantage is that the egg production efficiency is lower than that of later generations. Feng Yong raises chickens to improve his own life, not to sell eggs, so he can tolerate this shortcoming.
In ancient times, people with status or who paid attention to status, as long as they did not have a close relationship, had to send greetings to other people's homes a few days in advance to make time for the host. Otherwise, it would be rude and impolite to come to the door without saying hello in advance.
Performance.
Ordinarily, a small family like Feng Yong should not be exposed to this level for the time being. He never thought that someone in his family would send a greeting card one day. Just a few days ago when he was busy picking eggs.
Oh my god, the housekeeper came in with a weird look on his face, holding a name card, saying that someone had sent him a greeting card.
"Zhao Guang? Zhao Yiwen? This name is really familiar." Feng Yong looked at the name badge in his hand, which was the greeting card, and frowned and thought, "Who is this? Do I know him before?"
Of course they knew each other. Wasn't Zhao Guang the coachman who chatted with him that day? But Feng Yong was sure that it was the first time he and Zhao Guang met, but why did his name give him a familiar feeling?
?
Your surname is Zhao?
Feng Yong, a famous figure named Zhao in the Shu Kingdom, only knew one person, and that was Zhao Yun, the only remaining among the Five Tiger Generals, who was known as the heartthrob of later generations.
"I ****!" Feng Yong slapped his thigh and cursed, "I finally remembered, it turned out to be him!"
As a pseudo-person who has played series of games such as "Three Kingdoms Heroes I" to "Three Kingdoms Heroes VII", "Three Kingdoms IX" to "Three Kingdoms Twelve", as well as some Three Kingdoms games such as "The Legend of Cao Cao" and "The Legend of Zhao Yun".
A fan of the Three Kingdoms, Feng Yong said that the name Zhao Guang did not have much impression in his memory.
There is no way. For example, everyone who has read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms knows who the Five Tiger Generals are, and most people who have not read it have heard of them. But not so many people know who the descendants of the Five Tiger Generals are.
.
Although Feng Yong was once obsessed with the Three Kingdoms, he could only be regarded as a pseudo-fan of the Three Kingdoms. Take reading the Romance of the Three Kingdoms as an example. He would read it carefully in the first part, then read it roughly after the Battle of Yiling, and then read it briefly.
After the death of Zhuge Liang, I just skimmed it, and stopped reading it immediately after the Shu Han Dynasty was destroyed.
That's right, he is a Liu fan. When playing the Three Kingdoms game, most of the time he only plays Liu Beifang's Liu fans. As for history books such as the Three Kingdoms, he only picks and reads interesting places to understand the difference between romance and historical facts, so
At most, he can only have a rough idea of relatively large historical events and time regarding the environment he is currently in.
People like Zhao Guang, who have not been written about much in history, and who do not have many outstanding figures, generally have little impression of him. The reason why we can remember that he is a descendant of Zhao Yun is entirely because of a later game company. This company treats games as movies.
It has been released frequently, and tickets often bounce. "Blizzard products must be high-quality products" is its slogan. One of the games is called "The Frozen Throne".
Well, of course, that game is indeed a masterpiece. Back then, Feng Yong and his classmates played a dark civil war and so on. In this game, there is a map called "Guarding the Sword Pavilion", which has remained popular for ten years. Feng Yong
I played this map ten years ago. Ten years later, Feng Yong traveled through time. There are still a large number of people playing this map on the Internet. You can imagine its charm. Well, I’m going too far. "Guarding the Sword Pavilion"
In the picture, there is a character named Zhao Guang, and his introduction is - the son of Zhao Yun.
