59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.

"Cousin, shall we go catch birds tomorrow?" Zhou Dinghai said excitedly.

"Catch the bird and roast it." Chen Li shouted immediately.

"It's also delicious when made into beggar's chicken. It's fragrant and tender, and even better than roasting it." Chen Hao missed the beggar bird that Chen Feng brought back from the mountains. It was so fragrant.

Just as Zhou Fubo was about to speak, his biological father Zhou Jing turned around and stopped talking immediately because of fear.

"Hey, what's the meaning of that expression?" Zhou Jing was unhappy and very dissatisfied with his son's timidity.

He is not a bully!

"No, let's go to the beach tomorrow and see if we can catch any sea cucumbers." Chen Feng said something a little stupid.

"This, this is impossible."

Zhou Jing said unconfidently: "Sea cucumbers are all on the seabed. It is hard to see them unless there are big waves or storms. Some villages a few miles away did pick up sea cucumbers last month, but that was because of the strong winds and waves in Bohai Sea during the Qingming Festival."

"Maybe Lord Dragon will give me face." Chen Feng said quietly in his heart, "My face should be very good!"

A key feature is that his spatial radius expanded several times in April, reaching 4 kilometers, his body was further strengthened in all directions, and his vision was sharper than that of an eagle.

He won't go bird hunting anyway.

I’m tired of eating them. Just today’s food, three meals a day, three each time, is enough for the Zhou family to eat for a week.

After dinner, Chen Feng went to feed the ducks.

The Zhou family's ducks are still raised in the pigsty, but after Chen Feng left last time, Zhou Jing and the old patriarch bought some pig breeds, and they raised a little boar, which they also kept in the pigsty.

The little boar had already eaten pig food, which was common seaweed, and there was plenty of it on the seaside.

Seaweed can be used as pig feed. It contains protein, minerals, etc. It is even used as a nutrient to promote pig growth in later generations, making it the most suitable food for pigs.

In contrast, the ducks’ food was much better, consisting of small fish and shrimps caught by the two cousins ​​from the river and the seaside.

Chen Li also came over and watched her brother pour water.

"Big Pot, are the little black ones at home hungry? Will grandma forget to feed them?"

"No, grandma wants to check if they have laid eggs."

"Big Pot, when will Xiao Hei and the others give birth to chicks?"

"Probably this month."

Two giant black chickens were raised in a chicken coop. They drank well water every day and ate rice, corn kernels and other food produced in the space. The hen laid more than a dozen eggs.

Chen Li ate half of it and gave the remaining half to the hen for gestation.

"Big Pot, can we raise pigs at home?" Chen Li's eyes widened when she saw the boar suddenly get up and run over to drink water from the pig basin.

There was no light in the pig cage, and she hadn't noticed it just now.

"Forget about our family."

He has countless spaces for pig feed.

It stinks!

Pigs can eat anything and poop a lot.

In the countryside, this is an excellent fertilizer and can be used to fertilize one's own private plots.

But the courtyard house is not acceptable.

If such a nice, clean yard is turned into a pigsty, my nose will suffer in the future.

Chickens and ducks are fine, you just need to open the chicken coop and clean it.

"Why?" Chen Li's eyes were completely attracted by the little black pig.

The current pig breeds are not as good as the improved white-skinned hybrid pigs in the future, or the black and white spotted pigs that are similar to wild boars.

"Little sister, do you think it smells bad?" Chen Feng asked curiously.

When he came here, in addition to feeding the ducks, he also brought well water to the boar to ensure that the pig could grow up safely.

"Ah, it stinks!"

If Chen Feng hadn't said it, Chen Li wouldn't have realized it.

After this revelation, the little girl felt like she had entered the women's restroom and quickly ran away.

Chen Feng followed out behind.

Zhou Fubo drank the tomato syrup on the plate with his brother, then poured some tea to dissolve the remaining syrup, and only then was he satisfied with washing the dishes.

After washing, I came out and saw Chen Li coming back.

"Dad, there's a little pig behind the house."

Without waiting for Chen Jianjun to speak, he said to his grandmother, "Grandma, now that the pigs are grown, can I come and eat their meat?"

"Okay, when you grow up, you can eat as much as you want." Grandma picked up her granddaughter and doted on her.

"Grandma, you are so nice." Chen Li hugged the old woman's neck and kissed her cheek, making the grandma smile happily.

"My dear granddaughter, she is becoming smarter and prettier."

The little girl was so happy with her grandma's praise.

"Grandma is pretty too."

The old and the young praised each other, making everyone laugh and cry.

Chen Jianjun didn't know about pig farming before, but when he heard about it, he took Zhou Jing to the pigpen at the back to take a look.

After returning, he couldn't help but say, "The seaside is still the best. There is everything in the sea. To raise pigs, you just need to pick up seaweed."

"Seaweed is also a traditional Chinese medicine. It can cure diseases." Zhou Fubo boasted.

This is naturally what the elders taught.

Grandpa curled his lips and said, "We didn't raise pigs before. They didn't raise pigs either. We bought pig breeds. Now not only our village raises pigs, but other villages also raise them. As a result, there is not much seaweed."

"Isn't it enough?" Chen Feng asked.

"That's not the case. Once the seaweed on the riverside and the beach is cut, it will take ten days or half a month for it to grow back. Xiaohai and Xiaobo will have to walk a few more miles."

Grandma hugged Chen Li and said, "There's not much else on the beach, but there's a lot of seaweed like this."

The seagrass bed distribution area in my country can be mainly divided into the South China Sea seagrass bed distribution area and the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea seagrass bed distribution area. Among them, the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea seagrass bed distribution area includes the coastal areas of Shandong, Hebei, Tianjin and Liaoning provinces and cities.

In Tianjin, the rich nutrients brought by the Haihe River allow the seaweed here to grow very well.

Now the seagrass resources in the Bohai Sea are still very abundant. However, in 30 years, due to large-scale land reclamation, dredging, destructive fishing (water pumps, trawling) and uncontrolled aquaculture, 90% of the eelgrass beds will disappear. The large-scale disappearance of seagrass beds will cause a further decline in fishery resources.

Fortunately, after the new century, the country has vigorously controlled pollution and cultivated seaweed, and the once-disappeared marine green has begun to gradually spread again.

"Grandma, do fish eat seaweed?" Chen Li asked a question that the old woman couldn't answer.

"This, I shouldn't eat it."

"You have to look at the fish. There are many small fish and shrimps that grow up eating seaweed," Grandpa corrected.

"Dad, are you going fishing tomorrow?" Zhou Dinghai asked, "Should I go to the village chief's house and talk to him now?"

He wanted to take the flashlight out to play, but never had the chance.

"The village brigade is going to plant rice in the next few days. This is very important. I am now a warehouse manager and a village official. I must also actively participate in the labor and set an example. I can't go fishing."

Zhou Jing couldn't help but show off to Chen Jianjun.

Spring ploughing is a big event and everyone from top to bottom is paying attention to it.

In the feudal era, county magistrates, prefects, governors, emperors, etc. were all required to perform special spring ploughing programs, which was one of the major festivals once a year.
