Chu Feng directly asked Uncle Wu to settle Mr. Niu and Niushan's wife in his hometown.
There are quite a few slate houses in Chujiazhuang now. The craftsmen have also moved out of the old house long ago.
The craftsmen of the waterwheel factory all moved into the spacious factory dormitories with their families!
Work has also entered normality, and more than ten water trucks can be made every month for sale.
As for the water mill, Chu Feng no longer allows it to be produced. It is too cumbersome to transport, so it is better to let the locals do it themselves!
Only the water mill was left for grinding flour.
The business was booming, and some farmers even went to the capital to sell the ground noodles, which turned into a small business.
"Master, our village is very busy now. However, the big stone kilns you asked to build are still idle. Moreover, the old kiln leader said that the kilns are too big and we cannot supply the charcoal we produced. , unless you buy charcoal elsewhere, but the cost is too high.”
Uncle Wu came up and whispered tentatively.
He was also afraid of being scolded by Chu Feng. After all, the young master used to be generous!
"Haha, those stone kilns are too small for the young master. Who told you that the young master wants to use charcoal to burn the kiln?"
Chu Feng smiled proudly, feeling that he had hit the right mark this time, and he really felt like he knew everything.
"Ah! No need for charcoal? Master, you can't use wood directly to burn the kiln. Will..."
Uncle Wu was so shocked that he quickly waved his hands and said loudly.
But before he finished speaking, Chu Feng said with a smile: "What wood to use? That is a huge waste. Don't worry about the fuel. You will know when the time comes. Anyway, you save money and burn well." . Now, you call all the villagers, the young master will hold a mobilization meeting for them. Tell us about the future development direction of our village. "
"Ah! Master, what is the direction of development?"
Uncle Wu asked in confusion.
"This is the path we Zhuangzi will take from now on."
Chu Feng wanted to kick Uncle Wu. The dignified acting owner of the village actually didn’t know the direction of development!
"Isn't the path we Zhuangzi are going to take set by you, young master? We will go as long as the young master says! What else do we need to say to them?"
Uncle Wu muttered. Although he had doubts, he still went to get his gong.
Chu Feng wanted to tell him: I am holding this meeting just to enjoy the pleasure of being a leader!
The gong rang, and soon, the farmers, craftsmen, and even old men, old ladies, and children from Chujiazhuang all came.
Standing in Zhuangzi Square, the chatter was chaotic and there was no sign of a team at all.
Chu Feng felt the leader's mood and disappeared instantly.
However, now that it’s organized, let’s bite the bullet and do it!
There was another gong sound, and the chaotic sound finally became quiet.
Chu Feng stood on the stone house in the northwest corner of the square, looked at the dark crowd, and said: "Ahem, today, I have called everyone here. The main reason is that the young master wants to tell everyone the path that our Zhuangzi will take in the future. First of all, We must vigorously raise pigs..."
"Ha ha ha ha"
The bankers below couldn't help laughing.
Niushan also touched his head and smiled widely, thinking how powerful the young master was. The result is raising that saucy pig! The meat of that thing is very fishy and not tasty, and it runs around and grows slowly, so the profit is not as good as farming on dry land!
"Don't laugh, wait and see the pigs raised by the young master. I'm not afraid to tell you. When the pigs grow, the nobles in the capital will rush to buy them. By then, a pound of pork will cost more than ten pounds of grain. Woolen cloth."
Chu Feng waited for everyone to laugh before continuing to speak loudly.
"Master, all the boar piglets raised in the pit have been stirred up. They only know how to eat and sleep with the sow piglets all day long. Does this mean their meat will be delicious?"
A very clear voice rang out, obviously a half-grown child.
"Haha, Erdan'er is so smart. You, a little pigger, can think of this. It's not easy. Yes, the pigs we raise only eat and sleep. They are treasures. Not only do they have meat. It’s delicious, and it grows quickly. You’ll know after a while.”
Chu Feng laughed and said, I feel that Erdan, who works for the pig farm in exchange for pig grass and grain, is really smart and can be cultivated more in the future.
"Master, I can see it now. Because this time my family also raised two piglets. But the piglets in the pit grow fast. Most of the piglets we bought together have been raised. Months. The piglets in the pit were obviously bigger than the piglets at home, and they mostly ate pigweed brought by me and my parents. I didn’t understand why, so I asked my mother. My mother said: The piglets in my family are despicable, so naturally they cannot compare with the rich piglets in the young master’s family. Only now do I know that it is the young master who is so good at raising pigs!”
Erdan'er's words once again caused everyone to burst into laughter.
However, this time, the look in Chu Feng's eyes was full of admiration. The young master did not go to school for the farmers, but actually studied pig raising!
And he actually figured out how to raise pigs well!
"Okay, let's wait for the first batch of pigs to grow up. Let's see if we can sell them at a good price. If so, the young master will expand the scale. By then, more farmers will be needed to take care of this pig. Zhulu, if any of you have that intention, you should make plans in advance. It is best to go to the pit and take a look.
Let’s talk about the second road, which is the waterwheel plant, water mill, and blacksmith shop. These all require skills, but the scale will not be expanded in the future. But wages will definitely rise because of the good market. As for the third way, it is farming. Now there are more paddy fields and fewer fields that depend on the weather. But how can the harvest be improved? Have you ever thought about it? "
Hearing Chu Feng's question, all the old farmers, including Uncle Wu, were stunned.
Doesn’t farming just mean planting the seeds and then watering them? As for the harvest, God has the final say? Could it be that the young master also has a way to harvest more grain?
Suddenly, everyone looked at Chu Feng with even more admiration.
Even Niushan’s wife was fascinated by it! How come this Master Chu knows everything! It was right for her husband to be his guard.
Shuang'er's beautiful eyes flashed again and again: "The young master is indeed a little fairy, but he is just too bad. In the car just now, he actually held his hand..."
My legs are trembling just thinking about it.
Chu Feng cleared his throat again and continued to speak loudly: "When it comes to farming, you also need to be capable. Later, the young master will teach you some fertilization methods. For example, fermenting straw, burning plant ash and so on. The most important thing is , you also need to learn how to select excellent seeds..."
Chu Feng stood on the roof, talking eloquently, with the momentum of giving guidance to the country.
When he finished talking about how to farm scientifically and was about to drink some water to moisten his throat, suddenly, someone shouted: "Young Master, you really know astronomy and geography, you have read poetry and books, and you know everything. Wu's heart I respect you!"
Chu Feng could tell at a glance: the caller was the only private teacher in the village!
Xin said: "This guy seems to be a nerd, but he actually knows how to flatter! It seems that scholars are more thoughtful!"
With Mr. Private's voice, everyone was instantly inspired and praised loudly that Master Chu Feng must have read a lot of poems and books!
Only Shuang'er said in her heart: "How can the young master read poetry and books? Mr. Wu is really good at talking nonsense! The young master could only drink flower wine before! However, the young master has a fairy teacher. In just three days, he turned the young master from a The useless playboy has turned into such a great talent. However, he always finds new ways to get the little talk from his relatives, and his hands are not honest..."
As Shuang'er thought about it, her pretty face turned red, and her two straight legs even tightened slightly.
