The motorcycle soon stopped in front of Ma Chengzhi. Vet Hu looked at him and said, are you looking for me?
yes! Are you a veterinarian who treats livestock?
right! you come up.
Veterinarian Hu asked Ma Chengzhi to sit in the back seat. As soon as he stepped on the clutch, the motor started to sound. When he accelerator was slightly accelerator, the motorcycle became excited. It only took him one cigarette to reach his chicken farm.
Ma Chengzhi got off the motorcycle and shouted Yingzi that the veterinarian was here. Xiong Yingzi was driving a large group of clucking chickens into the cage. The afterglow of the setting sun made her face blush. She raised her head and smiled and said to Veterinary Hu, thank you for coming in time, but all the sick chickens in my chicken farm have recovered.
I see that the chickens are crowing so happily, it doesn’t look like they are sick. Vet Hu looked at the jumping chickens and expressed his intuition.
Yingzi, when I left, the sick chickens were as sleepy as if they were about to collapse or die. How did you cure them? Ma Chengzhi looked at her with wide eyes, feeling incredible.
I went out early in the morning and went to the veterinary pharmacy in the town to buy several large packets of yeast tablets and ten pounds of licorice. I ground them into powder and mixed them with the chicken feed, and let all the sick chickens eat them. After a few hours, they all recovered. They are energetic, clucking and jumping around, which means that all the sick chickens have recovered. Xiong Yingzi said, with a happy smile on his face.
You are right to use this method to treat chickens. Vet Hu affirmed and asked her, who did you learn from?
Learn from it. Xiong Yingzi pointed to a book on the chair cushion and said.
Ma Chengzhi took it over and took a look. It was a book on "Treatment of Animal Diseases and Diseases". He said, Oh, I also said you shouldn't read the book. It turns out you studied from this book. Wow!
It has only been a year since Xiong Yingzi married Ma Chengzhi. Their chicken farm has grown from 2,000 chickens to 5,000 chickens. They have already signed an order with the county livestock and poultry wholesale company, agreeing to sell 2,000 broilers at a time at the end of the month. The smallest one is about two or three kilograms each, and the largest one is about eight or nine kilograms, usually more than five or six kilograms.
Based on the market price at that time, which was 8 yuan per kilogram, then based on the calculation of 2,000 chickens of six kilograms each, it is estimated that the gross profit from selling to the county livestock and poultry wholesale company would be 96,000 yuan. Excluding feed and other costs of 30,000 yuan, it can be said that the net profit is 66,000 yuan. Yuan. Xiong Yingzi calculated this in front of Ma Chengzhi, and Ma Chengzhi was very happy. Even if he had nothing to do, he would be like Xiong Yingzi, learning to read the scientific and technological breeding books she bought back from the county bookstore.
That night, Ma Chengzhi was very excited, because the next morning the county livestock and poultry wholesale company would drive to their chicken farm to transport 2,000 broiler chickens, and then transfer the money to their home - Ma Chengzhi in Pingchuan Town. Chengzhi Chicken Farm Account.
It was late at night, and he couldn't sleep because of his excitement, so he took a lantern and walked around the chicken farm outside the house. This chicken farm is all made of adobe bricks with wooden purlins and tiles. The chickens in the chicken coop heard noises in the aisles and occasionally clucked in alarm. He felt that he had disturbed the chickens by coming here. Our rest? Instead of walking forward, he sat on a chair next to the aisle, took out a box of cigarettes that Xiong Yingzi bought for him, took out one, put it in his mouth and took a few puffs, feeling more energetic.
Then he took out a book "Poultry Breeding Technology" that was placed on the window sill next to the wall and flipped through it. He thought to himself: His wife relied on learning scientific and technological breeding knowledge to get her family's breeding industry on the right track. He should also calm down and study the secrets of breeding in books.
In a blink of an eye, he finished smoking one cigarette and dropped the cigarette butt. He took out the second one and was about to light it when he heard the sound of someone knocking on the door, followed by Xiong Yingzi's cry. I could smell the smoke from a long distance away, so It's late, why are you still smoking? If I had known you were so unable to control yourself, I would have regretted buying you that pack of cigarettes. Come inside and sleep! Do you still want to work tomorrow?
Ma Chengzhi always listened to his wife, so he gave up immediately, stuffed the cigarette he took out back into the cigarette case, picked up the lantern and walked around the chicken farm aisle, and returned to the house to sleep.
At five o'clock in the morning, Xiong Yingzi woke up due to the strong smell of fireworks. Before she could get out of bed, she saw the firelight outside the window. Knowing that something was wrong, she immediately pushed Ma Chengzhi awake and shouted, "I don't know where I got angry. Hurry up." get up.
Ma Chengzhi sat up in agitation and asked, where did he get angry? Xiong Yingzi didn't answer. She quickly put on her clothes and opened the door. When she looked up, she was dumbfounded. The low-rise chicken coops connected to her chicken farm were engulfed in flames, and all the tiles covering the purlins and rafters of the house were in flames. They all burned to the point of collapse, and the flames made a croaking sound.
If the chicken coop hadn't been separated from the main house, the main house would have been engulfed by the spreading fire. Xiong Yingzi immediately ran to the still peaceful village and shouted at the top of his lungs: The chicken farm is on fire! Firefighting! …
After a moment, Ma Chengzhi's rough and somewhat hoarse voice came again: The chicken farm is angry! Firefighting! …
After a while, the villagers came out from different alleys, corridors, and courtyards. Some carried footbaths and washbasins, and some carried buckets and ladles. There was a dense sound of footsteps, and they all rushed to the pond in front of the village. After that, They all rushed to Ma Chengzhi's chicken farm to put out the fire.
Most of the people putting out the fire were men, and most of the people delivering water were women, working together in a continuous or somewhat chaotic manner. Thick smoke filled the air, mixed with the smell of chicken being roasted and burned, which made people sigh.
The fire was not completely extinguished until 9 a.m. when a large truck from the county livestock and poultry wholesale company came to buy broilers. Seeing such a tragic situation, it turned around and drove back.
Xiong Yingzi covered her face and cried while facing the piles of ashes in the chicken farm that had been splashed with water. Ma Chengzhi cried non-stop, wiping away his tears, and complained to the villagers who stood around him with heavy hearts and silent words:
You know what? This chicken farm has 5,000 broiler chickens. The damage to the broiler chickens alone was 240,000 yuan. The burning of the chicken houses also caused a loss of nearly 200,000 yuan. The total loss reached more than 500,000 yuan. Oh my God! Why are we so tormented by our Ma family? Even if my father tortured the white goose and cooked the goose meat and received retribution, I didn't do that? Why should you accuse me? I am innocent!
Someone asked Ma Chengzhi in a low voice, how was this fire source introduced? Ma Chengzhi still cried and said, "I don't know." Later he said, last night, I went to the chicken farm and sat in the aisle and smoked a cigarette. There were no scraps of paper and no firewood where the cigarette butt was thrown. It was impossible to start a fire. Is anyone jealous? Our family will make a fortune by raising chickens, so we set fire to it? The villagers were silent.
At this moment, some villagers took out half-cooked broiler chickens from the ash fire that had a strong smell of chicken and threw them in front of Ma Chengzhi and his wife.
Xiong Yingzi raised her head and said with tears in her eyes, "If you are willing to dig in the ashes, just take out the burned chickens. You have all worked hard, and our family has nothing to repay you. This is just a kind of Make up for it! Now that our house has been hit by a fire, we cannot recover all of a sudden.
At this point, Xiong Yingzi felt particularly sad, covering her face and crying again.
The chickens that were half-cooked and still fragrant were spread out in front of her. None of the villagers picked them up. Instead, they went to the pile of firewood that had been burned into ruins and dug out with hoes and shovels. Many broiler chickens with burnt feathers but still intact bodies came out. After hearing what Xiong Yingzi said as a reward, they took it away without ceremony.
I don’t know who called the police. A police car drove over and parked in the field. Several police officers got down from it. Some went to the scene to take pictures; some asked Ma Chengzhi and his wife and the villagers to learn about the situation, but they could not find out what caused the fire. s reason.
