Feed the pigs?
This is good.
Zhao Ping also became interested.
When I first traveled through time, my family was poor and could only hunt hares for food.
In addition, there are no condiments, so the aroma cannot be stimulated at all, so it can barely satisfy the hunger.
Later, when I earned some money, I started buying meat.
Most of them are pork, which can give you pig pancreas.
But the pork is fishy and smelly, and it is not castrated at all. It tastes no different from the pork of an old sow.
At that time, Zhao Ping came up with the idea of raising pigs by himself.
However, I was too busy to set up a pig farm.
Now he met a pig farmer, and Zhao Ping was not going to let him go.
He came over and pushed Wei Zhu quietly, "Are you a pig feeder?"
"I……"
Wei Zhu wanted to say no, but he didn't want to deceive Mr. Zhao.
He could only nod his head and said, "My name is Wei Zhu, and I feed pigs."
Zhao Ping: "..."
What a weird name this is.
But the name doesn't matter, as long as you can raise pigs.
Zhao Ping said: "Where are pigs raised? How many pigs are raised? Can you take me there to have a look?"
"ah?"
Wei Zhu can't be punished.
What's so cool about raising a pig?
You are the county magistrate now, shouldn't you be helping the county magistrate sort out the case files?
Xu Tianhua also frowned and reminded in a low voice: "Mr. Zhao, Huang Fengnian was killed by bandits. Our county government still has many things to deal with. Is it appropriate for you to go to the pig farm now?"
"Magistrate Xu, let me correct you."
Zhao Ping also reminded: "It's your county government, not our county government."
"You are the county magistrate, and I am an ordinary citizen."
After saying this, Zhao Ping remembered that civilians and officials were not of the same class, and added, "At most, he can be regarded as a seventh-grade wine taster."
"I……"
Xu Tianhua suddenly felt that Zhao Ping was sometimes unreliable.
He can only be tempted by official positions.
"Mr. Zhao, you are the county magistrate of Yun'an County."
"When Huang Fengnian was the county magistrate, the county magistrate fed pigs. When you were the county magistrate, the county magistrate also fed pigs. It is reasonable and reasonable."
Zhao Ping said: "What is this called?"
"Able people should do more work."
Wei Zhu added.
"Yes, those who can work hard."
Zhao Ping agreed.
Wen Qi on the side looked at the two people singing and felt very stupid.
But it feels familiar.
Where have you seen it?
Can't remember.
Zhao Ping took Wei Zhu away, leaving Xu Tianhua to handle county affairs.
Xu Tianhua immediately felt as if he had shot himself in the foot.
If he had known that being a county magistrate would be so troublesome, he might as well have disobeyed the emperor's order.
However, the people who were watching at this time fell to their knees on the ground and kowtowed to Xu Tianhua.
"County Magistrate Xu is really the great master of Qingtian. He killed the dog official Huang Fengnian when he first arrived. He is the master of the country for us people. He is a good official."
"Yes, yes, it is a blessing for our Yun'an County to have such a good official come to us."
"The Emperor's grace has finally reached our Yun'an County."
"..."
Is this how the word slut is used?
Wen Qi felt that he had learned something.
Seeing this, Xu Tianhua lost his dejection and regained his fighting spirit.
This is a grand occasion for all the people to worship. It is many times more pious than the emperor's trip where all the people are forced to come out to worship.
Xu Tianhua was very motivated and began to arrange the aftermath in an orderly manner.
For example, Huang Fengnian's head was collected and sent to the capital on a certain day.
For example, punish the killers in black and interrogate the masterminds and party members behind the scenes.
For example, if Huang Fengnian's family members were imprisoned, they should be assassinated and exiled, and they should be sold to the Jiaofang Division.
for example……
Zhao Ping didn't know this. Under the leadership of Wei Zhu, he saw the pig farm in Yun'an County.
Yun'an County is a poor and remote place, and the county magistrate's salary is not enough for him to squander.
So Huang Fengnian tried his best to make money.
Not only did they unite with bandits to raid the common people, but they also built many factories.
Like a textile workshop.
Huang Fengnian has one in his hand.
When the plague broke out, Zhao Ping proposed letting textile workshops make masks.
Huang Fengnian agreed very well.
However, Tian Zhen wanted to stop this kind of work and provide free masks, but Huang Fengnian did not let his textile workshop take action.
The rest of the cloth is all silver.
The pig farm was also founded by Huang Fengnian. Pigs were killed every day to provide pork to the wealthy households in the county.
He is the only pig farm in the entire Yun'an County.
If someone else opens it, I'm sorry, but if the county magistrate doesn't approve the official document, you are not qualified to open it.
As a result, pork in Yun'an County is a scarce product and extremely expensive. Huang Fengnian also made a lot of money from pig farms.
The pig farm is located in an open space behind the county house. It is a shed built with wooden piles, and there are old sows with white flowers in them.
Yes, they are all sows.
His heavy belly sagged, and he trembled when he walked.
Zhao Ping was speechless and asked: "Are all our pig farms made of sows?"
"yes."
Wei Zhu said matter-of-factly: "Who would raise a boar when they have nothing to do?"
"Boars are wild and don't grow meat."
"If you feed it for a year and a half, it won't gain a hundred pounds of meat. It's a waste of food."
"There's no better way than a sow."
"Not only does it grow fast, but it can also give birth to piglets."
"That makes sense."
Zhao Ping nodded, "What about the boar?"
"threw."
"threw?"
Zhao Ping found it difficult to understand.
"yes."
"If you don't throw them away, why keep them? If you don't feed them, they will starve to death sooner or later, so it's better to throw them away and make sure they are clean."
I:"……"
It is indeed different from the previous life.
In the previous life, almost no one bought the sow's pork, which had a fishy smell.
On the contrary, it was a boar, which was very popular.
Moreover, the castration technology was possessed a long time ago in the previous life, and the pig cutter even became a great skill.
If you are good at breeding pigs, you can raise a whole family without any problems.
It can even be regarded as a special skill and passed down from generation to generation.
In order to be able to eat pork that does not smell fishy in the future, Zhao Ping had to spread knowledge.
"Wei Zhu, a boar is a pig and a living life. If you just throw it away, wouldn't you be killing living creatures?"
"..."
Wei Zhu didn't want to speak.
Huang Fengnian is a living human life, and you cut off his head without saying a word.
Now I've thrown away a few boars and you're here blabbering.
Could it be that Huang Fengnian is worse than a pig?
But thinking about the things Huang Fengnian did, it seems that he is really not as good as a pig.
Zhao Ping continued to popularize, "Boars are wild because we have not tamed them well. Once they are tamed, they are more docile than sows."
"real?"
"Absolutely true."
"How to tame."
"Castrated."
"It's that simple?"
"It's that simple."
Wei Zhu still showed an incredible look.
In all his years of feeding pigs, he had never heard such magical remarks.
But Zhao Ping can even defeat the plague, so his idea might be feasible.
Anyway, if you still can't tame it after castration, it's not too late to throw it away.
If it can be tamed, there will be one more pig.
Growing two hundred pounds a year is all money.
Wei Zhu feels that the cost of trial and error is very low, but the results are obviously good, so you can try it.
Then he asked: "What's wrong?"
This is really not a problem for Zhao Ping.
His grandfather came from the countryside. When he was a child, he would go to his grandfather's house to play whenever there was a holiday.
Grandpa’s family also raises pigs.
And castrated himself.
Zhao Ping was still young at the time and only vaguely remembered using a pig knife.
The pig knife has a triangular shape on the front and sharp edges on the top and sides, which can cut the skin of the pig.
There is a handful at the back with a curved hook on the handle, which can hook out the colorful intestines in the pig's belly.
Zhao Ping explained.
Wei Zhu didn't quite understand, so he ran to the sow and made gestures on the sow's belly with his hands.
"Slit it from here and tear off such a long thing. Can the pig still survive?"
"What are you talking about?"
Zhao Ping was speechless, "Just cut off the two things at the back."
"later?"
Wei Zhu was puzzled.
Zhao Ping had no choice but to spread knowledge to him that even adults in his previous life were unwilling to mention.
Wei Zhu blushed when he heard this.
It turns out that those organs in pigs are called that.
What about that person?
Wei Zhu couldn't help being curious, and kept chasing Zhao Ping with questions. He had even made up his mind and went to Goulan to find someone to verify it in the evening.
Such profound things cannot be learned from books.
You can only practice it yourself.
It is then compiled into a book based on the experience.
Maybe it will still sell well.
Wei Zhu was eager to try.
Zhao Ping saw something was wrong with Wei Zhu's state, and then realized that he was off topic.
Hey, man!
Zhao Ping was worried that if it continued to become popular, this guy would try it in the pig pen in front of him, so he could only stop it.
He patted Wei Zhu on the shoulder and said, "Wei Zhu, I am very optimistic about you."
"From now on, you can go to Xiping Village to raise pigs."
"ah?"
Wei Zhu was shocked, "Going to Xiping Village to raise pigs? Who will be the county magistrate?"
"I will accept whoever I love."
"Where's the salary?"
"How much is your salary?"
"Ten taels of silver a year."
"I'll give you fifteen taels a year, and I'll take care of food, housing, and clothes."
"Okay, I'll do it."
Wei Zhu could not resist the temptation and agreed on the spot.
In Wei Zhu's own opinion, he was used to raising pigs and was infected by Zhao Ping's advanced pig raising techniques, so he planned to learn from Zhao Ping.
Definitely not for that mere five taels of broken silver.
