Chapter 127 I don’t know what to eat
"There are one hundred and ninety in total. If you want them, I will move the rabbits over now." Xia Chan said.
"One hundred and ninety, that's seven hundred and sixty yuan. Then I'll go in and get the money, and you can bring all the rabbits here."
After that, Xia Chan and the captain moved all the rabbits to the guard room. The old man confirmed the number and saw that the rabbits were indeed plump and had little individual difference, so he handed all the money to Xia Chan and told Xia Chan He said that if there is any good stuff in the future, come and ask him. If he wants it, he will ask for it in large quantities.
After getting the money and getting on the tractor, Xia Chan quickly drove the tractor and left. Otherwise, she was afraid of being complained if she stayed here for a long time. The captain held the 795 yuan in his pocket, and his heart was boiling. He didn't expect that raising rabbits would actually be possible. You can make money, and still make so much.
Two hundred of them would make nearly 800 yuan. If there were two thousand of them, wouldn't they make 8,000 yuan?
The captain's heart was on fire.
Returning to the production team, everyone got off the tractor. Xia Chan said to the team leader, "Uncle Captain, it is still a bit dangerous to do such a thing now. We are afraid that others will be jealous and complain about us, so we must cooperate with public institutions. , let’s not sell it for the time being and wait for the results from the state-owned hotel. If he If they still want it, they will definitely send someone to the production team to tell us that we don’t have many rabbits left. We will divide them among everyone and save them for next year. The rest will be left to the state-owned hotel for one day! As long as there are ten, our supply is not enough, so don’t worry about not making money.”
"Xiaochan is right." The captain nodded.
Xia Chan continued, "When the winter hunting time comes, we can not share small prey such as pheasants and hares with everyone, but cooperate with the state-owned hotels. I believe the state-owned hotels will definitely want them!"
"You are right. We may not be able to supply these just by raising these in our village this year. When the winter hunting team goes into the mountains to hunt, I will tell them not to eat pheasants and hares and keep them all." The captain said.
When the people of the winter hunting team go hunting in the mountains, they make a fire to cook and eat. In addition to the rations they bring, they also cook small prey to eat. After all, everyone needs to eat meat to supplement nutrition. The big ones are difficult to handle, but the little ones are still fine. processed.
Afterwards, the captain went to the brigade headquarters and rang the gong for the meeting. Xia Chan did not go back, but waited for the meeting to begin.
When a meeting is held, only one person from a family can attend, but in some families, the whole family attends the meeting together.
Half an hour later, almost everyone had arrived, and the captain stood up to hold a meeting for everyone. The first thing he said was to distribute rabbits to everyone, one for each family. The second thing was to earn money by raising rabbits. This is extra income. The money is not divided according to everyone's work points, but according to the number of accounts.
Those who stand up to protest will be immediately disqualified from sharing the money.
Those people who were in a family of more than a dozen but were reluctant to separate their families were about to stand up to protest the village's decision. Unexpectedly, the captain stopped them with just one word. The rabbits were raised in the village, so the decision-making power naturally also lies in the village. .
During the meeting, the team leader also emphasized that everyone should not make mistakes that undermine the unity within the team members, otherwise the village will severely punish them.
The rabbit was divided first, and then the family was divided into more than nine yuan. The captain's family was not divided, and everyone in the family was divided into one account. The captain didn't say anything, and it was even harder for the others to say anything. They wanted more. If you want money, then divide the family. The small family that is divided will naturally receive the account money, and many people have sensed this and are secretly planning to separate the family!
Xia Chan and Xia Bin are from the same household, Xia Qi is from the same household, Jin Pengfei and Jin Pengyuan are from the same household, so Xia Chan received three rabbits and money from three accounts, and Xia Chan didn't say no, this is They deserve it.
And she didn’t pay less, so why couldn’t she have more? The crowd dispersed, and Xia Chan went back with the rabbits and money. The cowshed also received rabbits, so she did not give them to the cowshed. Instead, she put a bag of white radish and rabbit meat stewed with radish outside the door of the cowshed. , can block the smell of grass on rabbits, is delicious and nutritious.
Moreover, every household has grown a lot of things like radishes and cabbage, especially this year because they are afraid of not having anything to eat, so they have grown so much that a bag is not worth much at all.
When Xia Chan returned home, she gave the money to her brothers, who all put the money in a drawer and used it as living expenses for the family.
As for the rabbit, he kept it in a cage at home and asked his brothers to sell it in the town. Their family had no shortage of meat.
Since Xia Chan successfully planted soil in wooden pots to grow vegetables at home last year, many people have done this this year. However, the families who do this are all close to Xia Chan. As for those who have nothing to do with each other, Xia Chan doesn't worry about that. .
When the weather gets cold, the family no longer uses a large kitchen to cook, but uses a stove connected to the kang. Anyway, the kang is burned at home from morning to night, and there is a fire in the stove, which is convenient for cooking.
Xia Qi cooked lunch first. Due to the flood this year, the crops were washed away and there was no rice and wheat. So now the family eats more economically, one-third rice and two-thirds whole grains, so Eat with it.
"Xiao Chan, what are you going to eat for lunch? Fish, chicken or rabbit?" Xia Qi stuck her head out and asked Xia Chan who was slumped on the kang.
"Hey, it's so annoying. I don't know what to eat every day." Xia Chan sighed heavily. Other people can't afford meat. They eat meat until they get tired of it. They eat these three types of meat every day, and then change them again. I can’t even get flowers in exchange for them! "I want to eat goose stewed in an iron pot, I want to eat shrimp stewed in an iron pot..."
Xia Chan's eyes lit up when she thought of the fresh and sweet prawns. She could go to the 'Crossing Mall' to buy them. Although the price was not cheap, she didn't want to eat them every day. It was okay to eat them once in a while, but she had to wait until some day when she went to town. Only then can you bring back prawns or big head shrimps.
"Then let's eat chicken stewed with mushrooms. I happened to soak the mushrooms in the morning, and this chicken is an old hen, not a pheasant." Pheasants are not as delicious as domestic chickens, and Xia Chan doesn't want to eat anymore after eating too much.
Xia Chan looked towards Xia Qi curiously, "Where did you get the old hen? Who did you replace it with? Do others think we are too extravagant?"
"When I came back from selling fish this morning, I happened to meet an old man who went to the city to sell old hens. He said that he couldn't lay eggs and he couldn't bear to eat them, so he put them out for sale. I happened to meet them and bought them." Xia Qi said.
There are only two old hens left at home, which are used to lay eggs, but they are reluctant to eat them.
Xia Chan was very happy when she heard this, "Brother, you are so considerate, so great! I am so lucky to have a brother like you."
Xia Qi raised her lips and smiled, and then started to prepare the dishes. She washed them, cut them, put them on plates, and waited for the final preparation.
