Chapter 23 Dad is not looking forward to good things, Jiayi is most distressed
There is no gate here, just a wooden gatehouse and a fence gate.
"Is anyone there?"
Soon a young man in his twenties came out of the house.
If Li Jiayi guessed correctly, this young man should be Bai Laoyao's son.
And it was probably because he was getting married that he had to repair the house and make furniture.
This fence gate can't stop people at all, probably only chickens and ducks.
And the gap is very large, not only can you see from the inside to the outside, but you can also see from the outside to the inside.
“Who are you looking for?” the young man asked while holding the fence door open.
“Excuse me, does the youngest Bai live here?”
"Dad, someone is looking for you." The young man shouted into the room.
"Who is it?" As the voice fell, the youngest Bai came out of the room.
"Uncle, it's me." Li Jia waved.
"Oh, it's you, little comrade." After saying that, he said to the young man: "Hurry up and open the door."
"Oh!" The young man quickly opened the fence door.
As soon as Li Jia came in, he asked: "Uncle, your sheep have not been sold yet?"
"No, they are all in the pen! I will show you."
>Follow the youngest Bai and take a look. Sure enough, there are four sheep, many of them, and they are all in the sheepfold.
This also made him relieved, knowing that it is not easy to buy a sheep in this era.
If the family didn't need money urgently, people would never sell sheep, because sheep eat grass and give birth to lambs.
It can be said that this is a steady stream of wealth. If you don’t need money, who would be willing to sell it!
"Uncle, how much do you plan to sell these four sheep for?" Li Jiayi asked.
The youngest Bai did not sit down and raise the price, but said: "Just calculate it according to the price in the pigeon market."
Since the youngest Bai was so happy, what else could Li Jiayi say.
"Okay, sir, I'll give you these four sheep at two hundred catties, sixty-five cents per catty, a total of one hundred and thirty yuan. What do you think?"
Sheep costs 65 cents, which is the same price as pork, but don’t forget, this is the price without a ticket.
In Pigeon Market, mutton can be sold for eighty or ninety cents per pound. Although it is a little cheaper than pork, it is not much cheaper.
Besides, Li Jia only buys seeds. For him, whether they are pigs or sheep, they all belong to seeds.
The youngest Bai looked at Li Jiayi and said: "Little comrade, this doesn't seem to be two hundred catties, right?"
"It's almost, just count it as two hundred catties."
If the difference is too much, it will definitely not work, but if the difference is only ten or eight pounds, it doesn't matter to him.
These ten or eight pounds may be stored in the space and grow out when he gets home.
Don’t forget that these are four sheep, not one. The average weight per sheep is about two pounds.
"Thank you!" Bai Laoyao muttered out after holding it in for a long time.
“You are so polite.”
Li Jiayi pretended to take it out of his schoolbag and took out the money, no more than one hundred and thirty yuan.
Of course, when the money was taken out, the schoolbag was empty.
As the saying goes, wealth is never revealed. Although the youngest Bai looks like an honest person, who can be sure that he will not take advantage of his wealth.
“Count it, if I’m right, it’s exactly one hundred and three.” Li Jia said as he handed over a handful of money.
“Oh! Okay.”
This money is not all in whole money. You must know that this is the money he makes from selling fish. Basically, it is one or two yuan, five yuan is not much, and the big black ten is just one.
Soon, the youngest Bai counted the money and said: "Just right, no more, no less." "Yeah!"
Then the youngest Bai put the money away. , he went into the sheepfold and took out the sheep.
“Little comrade, this sheep is yours from now on.”
Li Jiayi took the rope handed over by Bai Lao Yao and said: "In that case, I will leave first."
"Okay, you walk slowly."
Come out of Bai Lao Yao's house , Li Jiayi led the sheep and walked out of the village, but he did not go to the main road, but to the wasteland at the east end of the village.
For those who didn’t know, I thought he was herding sheep for the family. Not to mention, he really looked like a little sheepherder.
Let the sheep eat grass for a while, then when there was no one there, he put it into the space and ran towards the main road.
Now in space, there are pigs, chickens, ducks and geese, and now there are sheep.
The only thing missing from the entire breeding area is cattle, horses and donkeys.
He will definitely get the cows and donkeys. As for the horses, to be honest, it doesn't matter whether they have them or not.
Because horse meat is not delicious and is very thick.
Even if he got a horse, he would only use it for riding.
Just add some corn leaves to the feed box in the sheep pen and forget about it. It will be enough for a few days anyway.
Of course, this is talking about the few days outside.
When the next crop of sweet potatoes is planted, there will be enough feed.
And the corn can be harvested quickly, which is why he took off the corn leaves to feed the sheep.
A week passed in the blink of an eye. This week Li Jiayi harvested one crop of corn and two more crops of sweet potatoes, and now he planted corn again.
As for the vegetable plot, pumpkins have been planted for a while, and they have a high yield!
And it is particularly good for making feed.
In the pig pen, there are more than 40 wild boars and domestic pigs combined, more than 30 domestic pigs, and only a dozen wild boars.
Although wild boars also have two females, the number of wild boar cubs does not seem to be as many as that of domestic pigs.
The pig pen is not very crowded now, but it is almost there, and it looks like two female domestic pigs and two female wild boars are about to give birth.
So Li Jiayi decided to slaughter all the sows and breeding pigs.
This batch of pork must be delicious. You must know that he cut them into pieces not long after they were born.
If it were outside, Li Jiayi really wouldn't have this ability, but in space, it wouldn't be a problem for him.
And these pigs are very big. You must know that they have not grown in the space for three months, but for six months.
It can be ready for sale in three months, let alone six months.
Whether it is a wild boar or a domestic pig, it can grow to more than 300 kilograms, and it is definitely a big fat pig.
Thinking of slaughtering the pigs, Li Jiayi hurried home from the pigeon market.
Li Jiayi has been wandering around the Pigeon Market basically every day this week. On one hand, he is trying to understand the market conditions of the Pigeon Market, and on the other hand, he is looking to see if there is anything he can buy.
A child! The journey is all about running. No, after running and sweating, I finally got home.
Li Aimin and Ye Xin are resting at home today, because today is Sunday again. Seeing him running back covered in sweat, Li Aimin asked: "Son, were you chased by a dog?"
"Dad, can't you expect me to do better?" Li Jiayi said, giving Li Aimin a roll of his eyes.
"Then why are you running so fast? Did you get into trouble again?"
Li Jiayi was speechless. Although he enjoyed this feeling, he couldn't always bear it. It’s unfair!
So he was going to make a splash.
PS: Love is always in love across thousands of rivers and mountains, can you give me a monthly pass? Thanks!
