With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

A soldier looked at the chicken feathers all over the ground and asked Zhao Dashan next to him.

Zhao Dashan looked at the chicken feathers on the ground without any hesitation.

"Throw all these chicken feathers into the fields of the villagers, they can be used as fertilizer."

"Hey! Good!"

The soldiers gathered the chicken feathers into a large bucket and prepared to take it to the villagers' fields to dump them.

Zhou Yue took the bucket with a smile, "Let me do this little job. Can you help me carry two buckets of water? I'll boil water for the soldiers later."

"Okay! No problem!"

The soldier handed the bucket to her, took the bucket and the shoulder pole, and walked towards the village well.

The reason why Zhou Yue volunteered to take on this task was because the chicken feathers were very useful and she felt it would be a pity to just leave them lying on the ground.

She did not dump the big bucket of chicken feathers on the villagers' fields, but hid it behind a big tree.

After the chicken was marinated and there was enough food for the road, the Red Army soldiers were ready to move on.

Now the journey north is going very smoothly without much interference from the enemy.

The red expansion operation was done very well along the way and the number of people in the team has been increasing.

Zhou Yue was very happy in her heart, as these were the seeds of the blazing revolutionary fire of the future!

The more these Red Army soldiers there are, the faster we can build the new China and accelerate China's progress.

After all the Red Army soldiers left, another group of Red Army soldiers returned to the town.

There were about 20 to 30 Red Army soldiers in this group, and everyone was a little surprised when they returned to the town.

"Comrades of the Red Army, aren't you leaving?"

"Why are you back? Is there something wrong?"

These Red Army soldiers greeted the villagers with a smile.

"We are under the organization's order to help everyone engage in breeding and get rid of poverty and become rich!"

Hearing this, the villagers all became happy and had sincere smiles on their faces.

Because they heard that old man Li's chickens had contracted some kind of plague and were dying overnight.

Among these Red Army soldiers, there were actually some who knew veterinary skills.

After the medicine was fed to the chicken, it recovered quickly.

What would have been a huge loss was saved in this way.

There are many people in this town who raise chickens, and they have all experienced the anxiety that comes when chickens get sick.

It would be great if these warriors could come to help!

These twenty or thirty Red Army soldiers were of course NPCs arranged by Zhou Yue.

They came here at this time with a series of tasks arranged by Zhou Yue.

Zhou Yue felt that by developing this town well, China's breeding industry could avoid decades of detours.

"Dong dong dong! Dong dong dong!"

Several Red Army soldiers came to the entrance of the farmers' market and set up a large stall there.

The Red Army soldiers borrowed a gong from the villagers nearby. After they struck the gong, many villagers gathered around.

The villagers surrounded the soldiers' stalls in three layers, making it impossible to get in or out. They all wanted to see what was going on here.

"Comrade Red Army, what are you selling?"

"You don't have anything in your stall?"

"What are you selling? I'm so curious!"

The villagers who were surrounding them were as curious as a cat and kept asking them what they were selling.

At this time, a Red Army soldier was smiling and preaching loudly to everyone.

"Fellow villagers! I want to buy some chicken, duck and goose feathers from you!"

Hearing this, the villagers were puzzled.

After all, in this era, chicken, duck and goose feathers are of no use. After killing chickens and ducks, people just throw away the feathers.

And it is too strange that these Red Army soldiers have to be bought out with money.

The Red Army soldier continued, "But what we want is the down from chickens, ducks, and geese, that's it."

The Red Army soldier picked up a duck that he had just bought from the farmers' market.

There is dense fluff on the duck's chest and armpits when you lift the lid.

"Chicken down costs 20 cents per pound, duck down costs 30 cents per pound, and goose down costs 40 cents per pound."

Zhou Yue learned from the information provided by the system that the down on a duck weighs about 120 grams, or about two and a half taels.

The down on a goose weighs about 300g, or 6 taels.

The reason why goose down is so expensive is because it has excellent warmth retention properties.

In modern times, only some high-end bedding products use pure goose feathers.

In modern times, chicken down is generally not used as a warming item.

Because its warmth retention is not as strong as duck down or goose down, and if it is not handled properly, it will have a little strange smell.

Despite this, its warmth retention is definitely much better than that of catkins and is comparable to that of cotton.

Zhou Yue also got a lot of recipes for removing odors and grease from the system, and used chicken down to make very warm cold-resistant items.

"Really? You really want to collect these chicken and duck feathers?!"

"This thing can actually be sold for money?! All the hair was thrown on the ground before, what a pity!"

"Is this real? Why does it feel like a dream?"

The Red Army soldiers looked serious and spoke with confidence to everyone.

"My fellow villagers, this is true. We will start accepting them from today on. Just send them over!"

"Hey! Good!"

"The Red Army comrades are really good people! Now we can save more money!"

"I have to tell the lady next door about this. Her family has been so poor lately that they can barely make ends meet!"

In this way, the crowd gradually dispersed and ran around to tell each other the news.

Some of the people who had gathered before were selling chickens, ducks and geese in this farmers' market.

Now that they know this news, they will take the initiative to leave the fluff when they help others kill chickens, ducks and geese.

Whenever he collected some fluff, he would sell it to the Red Army soldiers outside the farmers' market.

Two Red Army soldiers were responsible for collecting the fluff, while the other soldiers had already built a row of small wooden houses and were busy in the yard outside.

The collected fluff cannot be directly made into cold-resistant items.

After all, the fluff is dirty and contains grease, foreign matter, and the smell of poultry.

At this time, some hot water was boiled on the earthen stove in the yard.

In a large bucket, add half a bucket of hot water, and then put the collected fluff in to soak.

When soaking, add some alkali solution and special cleaning formula liquid.

In this way, the fluff can be cleaned thoroughly.

Of course, just washing it like this is not enough. After washing, take it out and wrap it in a cloth bag.

Steam it in a large pot over water for half an hour before taking it out.

The reason for steaming for so long is to sterilize it at high temperature.

After high-temperature disinfection, take it out and spread it flat in a winnowing basket to dry. The sun was strong these two days and it was completely dry in just one afternoon.

Zhou Yue also gave these NPCs professional fabric sewing skills.

If someone passed by the cabin at this time, they would definitely hear the tapping sound inside.

The Red Army soldiers inside were sewing on their sewing machines, making crackling sounds.

They are now sewing warm quilts for winter.

There are a lot of people raising chickens in this village, so the chicken feathers collected are much more than duck feathers and goose feathers.

What the soldiers are making now are chicken feather quilts.

The fabric used to make the quilt outside looks ordinary, all black or khaki.

But as soon as you touch it, you will know how comfortable it is.

Zhou Yue chose it in the mall. It’s a very skin-friendly and soft one.

Filled with soft, odorless chicken down.

The sewn quilt is soft and comfortable to hold in your hands.

If you build this in winter, it would be so comfortable!

It only took the NPC about ten days to sew quilts, and he made so many that the room was almost full.

Zhou Yue was walking on the road at this time and also received the news from the NPCs.

They worked very efficiently and she was very satisfied.

[Tongzi, let them distribute all the chicken down quilts to the folks in the town! ]

[Sister Yueyue, what about duck down and goose down? ]
