"Second Miss, our breeding farm now breeds a total of 12,480 rabbits, large and small." Chen Rong's voice could not hide his pride.
"Manager Chen, you did a good job. You should be credited with a credit." Lu Songli praised, but she knew that this rabbit breeding area started with twenty pairs of rabbits.
This can almost be said to have come from scratch, and Chen Rong deserves a lot of credit.
Chen Rong rubbed his hands excitedly.
Lu Songli added, "There are also rewards for the workers in the breeding mill!" Rabbits have a strong reproductive ability, but the people in the breeding mill are indispensable for raising them to the current scale.
Coming out of the rabbit breeding area, Lu Songli sincerely thanked Uncle Cheng, "Uncle Cheng, thank you for selflessly teaching others how to raise rabbits." These rabbits are really well raised.
Uncle Cheng stopped nervously, "I just taught you what I know." Besides, he got bonuses and wages.
Lu Songli nodded, put the question aside, and asked Chen Rong, "About how many old rabbits were infertile that you reported before?"
"There are probably more than 2,500 of them."
"With these two thousand or so, are they so old that they are completely infertile?"
"Yes."
Lu Songli thought for a moment and then decided, "In addition to these two thousand and five hundred, you can have someone screen them again and pick out those rabbits that are already very old."
Chen Rong understood, it was the kind of old rabbit that could still give birth once or twice and was just a little away from being sterilized.
Not long after, the people below came to report and said that they had picked out a thousand old rabbits.
"Isolate these rabbits first, and then ask the people from the slaughterhouse to come over, kill all these old rabbits, collect the furs, and send them to the garment factory. Someone will contact you."
Lu Songli calculated in her mind that there were probably more than 3,400 rabbits slaughtered this time.
"One thousand of these slaughtered rabbits were sent to the military camp to provide extra meals for the soldiers. One thousand, eight hundred were given to the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce for them to sell in various counties. This is the first batch of rabbit meat to be sold, and it is also the product of the breeding workshop. The preliminary results have allowed ordinary people to enjoy the taste of meat and improve their lives."
Lu Songli said this with a smile.
These old rabbits are all adult rabbits. After peeling and removing the internal organs, they weigh about three or four kilograms.
One thousand, eight hundred rabbits are distributed to ten counties, which is equivalent to investing one hundred rabbits in each county, and four hundred pounds of meat. Calculated in this way, with purchase restrictions based on household registration, the number of people who can buy meat is still limited. But there is no way, there is only so much meat that can be produced this time.
Chen Rong nodded and wrote it down.
When Uncle Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but glance at her. Who is this girl? He knows that the Liaodong Chamber of Commerce sells cheap grains, but now they sell rabbit meat? The price shouldn't be expensive, right? Later, he asked his family to take a look and buy some if the price was cheap.
"The remaining six hundred or so will be distributed to various governments, ministries and workshops." In fact, they are all agencies and units in Liaodong County. All in all, each unit was only allocated twenty or thirty rabbits.
"Then, all the employees in the breeding workshop will be rewarded with half a rabbit. By the way, one will be given to Uncle Cheng alone."
When Uncle Cheng heard this, he was stunned, "Isn't this - this - bad?"
Chen Rong smiled and said, "Uncle Cheng, since the second lady asked to give it to you, just take it."
Uncle Cheng said incoherently, "Okay, okay." This was such a surprise. He used to raise rabbits and sell them to others for food and money, and he was never willing to take a bite of them.
"Second Miss, why don't you transport these old rabbits to a local place first, then slaughter them, and then have the rabbit skins sent to the garment factory? In this way, everyone can also eat fresh rabbit meat." Chen Rongda wrote Courageous suggestion.
Lu Songli praised, "You are very thoughtful, just do it like this!"
Chen Rong grinned and couldn't help but make a suggestion, "Second Miss, a batch of ducks have already laid eggs. But there are not many, why not give Hou Cheng two hundred catties of duck eggs?"
The weather is hot, and although their hens have grown up, they don’t like to lay eggs as much as ducks.
Chen Rong made this suggestion because he felt that compared to the other seventeen counties, Houcheng, as the new administrative seat of the Liaodong County Governor's Office, was different.
Lu Songli was right, "Okay, just send it over with these rabbits."
Before leaving, Lu Songli encouraged him, "Work hard, and it will be up to you to solve the meat-eating problem of our soldiers and people in the future."
After coming out of the breeding farm, Lu Songli took a look at the sky. It was already evening, and she was not in a hurry to go back. She walked back slowly with others, and there was even a tea shop with the name of Liaodong Chamber of Commerce hanging on the roadside. Take a rest.
At this time, a group of people came from a distance. They were pushing carts and carrying baskets. They were all piled with things. There were men and women, old and young. They looked like a family.
They speculated that this family should have moved to Liaodong County from other places.
There have been many situations like this recently, and the locals in Liaodong County are used to it.
The family soon arrived. They parked their trolley on the courtyard of the tea shop, and a young man came in to buy tea.
In this family, the child with the longevity braid on the back of his head said curiously, "Dad, the official roads here are so spacious."
Lu Songli smiled slightly after hearing this, which was a kind of affirmation and praise for them.
People around her couldn't help but feel proud.
The official roads in the eighteen counties of Liaodong County are all so spacious. Moreover, the main roads have been opened, and other branches are being opened. Going to any county will be very fast in the future.
At this time, the thirteen- or fourteen-year-old boy complained, "The official road is spacious, but don't we still have to walk on our feet? I just don't know how far it is from Houcheng."
Lu Songli, who was standing next to him, said gently, "We'll reach Hou City in three or four miles further."
Hearing this, the whole family was shocked. The middle-aged man who seemed to be the head of the family clasped his fists at Lu Songli and said, "Thank you for informing me."
Lu Songli nodded slightly, "You're welcome."
The young man who complained about the long distance just now said in confusion, "Dad, why do we have to come to Houcheng? I think Wulu County where my aunt lives is very good."
He didn't understand why his second uncle kept insisting on going to Houcheng?
"You brat, you don't understand. Houcheng is now the governor's office of Liaodong County, and there are many hidden benefits. For example, the cheap food was the first to be put into Houcheng, and the amount was even larger. In other places, The county doesn’t have that benefit.”
