Bai Gui has already thought about it. When he goes to Zishui County to prepare for the imperial examination, Bai Youde will be responsible for raising these white-feathered chickens.
White-feathered chickens hatch quickly and can hatch in more than 20 days.
He didn't want Bai Youde to continue to make a living as a Mai Ke.
The reason why so few people do this is because they don’t treat people as human beings, but treat them like animals. These landowners in the countryside regard the lives of animals as more valuable than the lives of long-term workers.
It's not bad to meet a kind-hearted boss.
It is not difficult to meet a bad-hearted person and die from heatstroke and exhaustion.
And generally speaking, those who can retain long-term workers are all kind-hearted and benevolent owners. Landowners who can recruit Mac customers, but those who cannot retain long-term workers, are mostly evil-minded.
"To put it bluntly, we might as well just take these eggs home and hatch them ourselves, so as not to be pecked to death by our own parents. How can we bear it..."
Bai Gui sighed.
The ancients valued filial piety and would never see such a scene.
"The family has enough chickens. I don't care whether they hatch or not. Brother Bai, I'll help you carry these eggs. I'll give them to you when I return to the village. They're all yours..."
Zhou Yuan immediately said righteously.
He has long passed the age of childishness. If Bai Gui had not invited him for an outing today, he would have been too lazy to move. Otherwise, children who grew up in the countryside would not have a slightly fat figure like his.
Lu Zhaohai and Bai Xiaowu were younger. When Bai Gui said this, they planned to take a few eggs home and hatch them themselves. But they had long wanted to raise a chick of their own.
But just as they were about to open their mouths, they were stopped by their two brothers.
Several people knew that Bai Gui's family was poor and that this egg was worth a penny. The eggs that were about to be hatched were slightly more expensive, costing a few pennies each. These dozens of eggs were worth hundreds of pennies.
Waiting until the chicks are hatched and then raised, can also improve the family situation.
They hatch for fun.
Bai Gui hatched it to subsidize his family.
Besides, with so many eggs, there is no guarantee that all of them will hatch.
"When the chicks hatch, I'll give you some as a gift." Bai Gui also noticed the inadvertent kindness of his classmates, and he reciprocated the kindness. When the white-feathered chickens hatched, they would be fine breeds.
Opportunities to make money are not limited to raising chickens.
The profits created by the primary industry will never be as good as the profits created by the secondary and tertiary industries.
If you want to really make a lot of money and cultivate penicillin, that thing is as expensive as gold, or even much more expensive than gold. There is no need to be cautious about raising poultry.
"Then we'll have to wait for Brother Gui's whole chicken feast." Several people said with a wink.
The whole chicken feast, the implication is that we will not raise the chickens given.
If you want to repay, wait until the chicken really grows up.
…
go home.
Several people came to the old house of Bai Gui's family at the east end of the village.
"The eldest...eldest young master, the second...second young master. Sit down, sit down, and I'll cook for you." Bai Youde, who was building a brick wall, saw the group of people and suddenly felt a little uneasy and couldn't speak clearly.
He is an old worker of the Lu family and grew up serving the Lu brothers.
"Uncle, it's okay. You sit down. I'm just going to help my brother get the wild eggs he picked up." Lu Zhaopeng greeted him cordially. After hesitating for a while, he continued: "Don't call me Young Master.
Second Young Master Zhaohai, just call us by our names. We are juniors. If you do something wrong, please bear with it."
"Yes, uncle, we and Brother Bai are classmates, so they are like brothers."
Several people expressed relief.
"Then...how can it be done?"
Bai Youde had hands as cracked as pine tree bark, and he pinched the corners of his shorts uneasily. After waiting for a few people to comfort him, and seeing the relationship between the young masters and his children, his face gradually turned rosy.
.
He stood up from the low stool made of tree stumps, and deliberately straightened his collapsed body.
The desolate look left by the years and frost on the poor family did not disappear when they moved away from the Lu family, but in this short moment, it disappeared without a trace.
Open the straw curtain of the woodshed.
Go in.
One by one, they took out the eggs from their pockets, carefully placed them in the center of the golden wheat straw, and pressed the straw into small pits.
"Dad, these are pheasant eggs that can hatch. You have to keep the woodshed warm. From now on, the fire in the woodshed stove cannot be turned off until the chicks hatch..."
Bai Gui warned.
"The firewood of the villagers is not worth much, don't worry about that. I have hatched chickens, and I am not as good as you kids when it comes to studying, but I can definitely grow crops and raise livestock..."
Bai Youde couldn't hide the joy on his face as he looked at these dozens of eggs. Pheasants hatched from pheasant eggs are much more expensive than ordinary chickens.
It was his first time to get so many pheasants at once.
"There's a lot of firewood in Ewutun. I'll ask someone to bring some later..." Lu Zhaopeng glanced at Bai Gui's expression, as if he was asking for Bai Gui's opinion.
"Thank you Zhaopeng for your help."
This time, Bai Gui did not refuse and accepted with a smile.
As Bai Youde said, firewood for country people is not worth much money. But to maintain the temperature of the firewood house for a month, firewood is indispensable. Although it is beginning to thaw, it is only warmer outside at noon and still a little cold in the morning and evening.
"I'll also ask the E family to send some firewood later..."
"Remember, this is the title of the Golden Rooster List!"
Bai Xiaowen raised his eyebrows, and the strong Qin voice was deliberately lowered. When he heard the gold letters on the title of the gold medal, they vaguely coincided with the chicken.
Several people were happy.
Before it got too late, the Lu family sent Liu Mouer to bring two carts of firewood, and the Bai family also sent Lu San to bring two carts of firewood.
Although the Bai family treats Lu San with kindness, after all, there is a difference between master and servant.
"Youde, it's my turn to give you something today." Liu Mouer's mouth was full of sourness. He and Bai Youde used to be long-term workers of the Lu family, but now Bai Youde has become successful, and the eldest and second young master of the Lu family
Send him to deliver firewood.
The more I think about this taste, the less it tastes like.
"You are also a kid, so why are you saying these things? In the future, if I have the ability, I will respect you, a gangster." Bai Youde handed the water-soaked gun barrel to Liu Mou'er, and cursed with a half-smile.
Qian Da, the adoptive father of Qin Province Dialect.
In order for the newborn to be easy to support, not only the nickname is given, but also there is usually the custom of recognizing the elder. First, they are afraid that the child will be delicate and difficult to give birth to and raise; second, they are afraid that the child died in childhood and they are afraid that they will be childless.
To protect the child, the second is that the child's fortune is not good, and the father and mother are suppressed. The fortune is changed by worshiping the godmother, so as to achieve harmony between the upper and lower classes and a prosperous family. Moreover, they generally like to worship poor people as their godmother. Because the more humble a person is, the better they are.
Good to feed.
Although Bai Youde seems to be poor and has no wealth, he is still better than Liu Mouer. He married his wife in his early years, while Liu Mouer is still a bachelor.
The two had a good friendship, and soon they started chatting with each other as usual.
"Too……"
Liu Mou'er didn't feel well in his heart, but although he was envious and jealous, he didn't think about doing anything to the Bai family. After all, Bai Gui told him to be a big brother. In the future, when he gets rich, he can also take advantage of it.
