Through the troubled times and famine, I just want to farm peacefully

You know, they have thousands of soldiers to feed on the mountain. How can they have the strength to eat only food without meat?

Lin Yinan placed the account books of the breeding farm in the barracks outside the city in front of everyone.

"Our breeding scale is constantly expanding. Even if we slaughter this batch of grown chickens, ducks, pigs and other livestock before the Chinese New Year, the livestock from the farm over at the barracks will be available for supply after the Chinese New Year."

She had calculated that based on the growth rate of livestock and the current scale of breeding, there was no need to worry about having no meat to eat.

After reading all the account books, Pan Qingfeng pondered for a while and asked Lin Yinan, "City Lord, how do you sell the meat? Do you have any plans?"

Lin Yinan gave him an admiring look at his sharp mind and said, "I plan to open a grain and oil supply and marketing cooperative in the county."

Lin Yiheng: "Grain and Oil Supply and Marketing Cooperative?"

Lin Yuanzhi: "Are you selling grain?"

"Yes, the accounts have been settled. Next, we will have a meeting to discuss the plans for next year."

Therefore, Lin Yinan asked the secret guards to invite all the backbones of Longtan County.

It's the end of the year and everyone is busy with household chores.

A quarter of an hour later, all the backbone members of the management of Longtan County gathered in the meeting room.

Lin Yinan glanced at everyone present and first expressed his high appreciation for everyone's hard work over the past year.

"After more than half a year of hard work, Longtan successfully planted two seasons of high-yield rice this year. The people in the villages below have also mastered the basic planting techniques. Next year, Longtan will enter a period of rapid development."

Then, she explained to everyone why the Longtan Grain and Oil Supply and Marketing Cooperative was established.

The establishment of Longtan Grain and Oil Supply and Marketing Cooperative can facilitate the purchase of agricultural and sideline products produced by the people, such as rice, soybeans, and corn. They can process and sell these purchased agricultural products to stabilize the market price of grain and avoid the situation of low grain prices hurting farmers in the future.

In addition to purchasing agricultural and sideline products, the Grain and Oil Supply and Marketing Cooperative will also complete the collection, storage and sales of various types of grain seeds, fertilizers, etc.

Finally, it provides guidance and consultation on agricultural knowledge and planting techniques to the people under its rule, as well as leasing and selling agricultural tools.

The first thing the Linjia Village chief thought of was to store food so as not to starve. "Yes! Even if the year is not good, we will not have to worry about lack of food."

Lin Yinan's proposal was quickly unanimously agreed upon by everyone.

"It's just that it's not easy to get to the county town from some of the more remote villages."

Yun Yu has been traveling back and forth between the villages in the past six months, so he is very familiar with all of them.

"Can the town still be used if there is one?" Lin Yinan asked.

Yun Yu said, "Yes, it just needs some repairs."

"Please remember this. After the beginning of the year, have someone renovate a grain and oil store. Don't worry about the others. After the salt is launched, I believe many people will come back."

"Anan, there are so many fertilized eggs stored in the warehouse. Are you going to sell them in the grain and oil store?" There were too many fertilized eggs, and Lin Yiheng was a little worried.

Lin Yinan sat calmly, his eyebrows were gentle and his eyes were deep, "Yes, sell them together with the affordable price. You can calculate and discuss with Yun Yu and Hu Shao later to see how much each household should be limited to. The price does not have to be too high."

When Hu Shao heard Lin Yinan mention his name, he hesitated and said, "Sister Anan, will you still sell crops on credit to the people at the beginning of the year?"

For the past six months, he, like Yunyu, would patrol the villages under Longtan every day.

Some families with ill intentions use the same planting methods and fertilizer and water management, but they always cheat in their work, resulting in the output being barely enough to make a living. He has heard many times that they secretly plan to come to Longtan to buy crops on credit at the beginning of the new year.

"I won't buy on credit, but Longtan Grain and Oil Store will have high-quality rice seeds for sale." Lin Yinan said, as if knowing what he was thinking.

Hu Shao felt relieved. He was afraid that Sister Anan would continue to be soft-hearted and indulge these people.

The matter was quickly confirmed, and Yunyu sent people to each village to notify them.

In Longtan County, the quantity of fertilized chicken and duck eggs and breeding rabbit seedlings to be sold has already been counted, while the high-quality rice seeds will not be sold until the spring.

Just when the whole county was busy, Luo Shouxin, who received the news from Lin Yinan, returned from Nanzhou Prefecture.

The information platform at Nanzhou Prefecture has been set up, and Yun Si and Yun Liu will stay behind with the secret guards.

He briefly explained to Luo Shouxin the matter of establishing a grain and oil supply and marketing cooperative in Longtan County. He would be responsible for internal affairs, while Wu Xingwang would be responsible for external affairs. The two of them would cooperate with each other. Lin Yinan believed that with their abilities, Longtan would be able to develop.

After the two finished chatting, Lin Yinan took her to inspect the farm.

In the early days, the farm was managed by the girls and children in their village. When the population grew, the younger children returned to school and the girls were transferred by Lin Yinan to make wine and sauces in the sauce shop.

Nowadays, farms are run by men and women with farming experience.

The outside of the farm was crowded with people, and the men who slaughtered pigs set up a simple shed outside the farm and slaughtered the pigs directly outside.

Looking at the shelves where a lot of pork had been slaughtered, Luo Shouxin estimated in his mind, "At this rate, when will we be able to sell it to the villagers?"

"Hu Shao and Yun Ming have already taken people to inform the villagers tomorrow. We have scheduled the sale for tomorrow. It will only take an hour or so for villages close to Longtan, but it will probably take two days for villages farther away." Lin Yinan said.

Almost none of the people who settled in Longtan have livestock.

So wherever they go, they have to rely on their own two legs.

Luo Shouxin already has an idea of ​​how to do it specifically.

"Okay, I'll go back and get ready."

The Luo family used to be grain merchants, so he had to go back and ask his father for help, and then find a few young men in the village.

Lin Fu has already copied out the household registration form of each village, so he can just use it for verification when the time comes.

Luo Shouxin had to arrange for help and decorate the store, and time was tight, so he left in a hurry.

Yun Shijiu rarely drinks milk during the day now, so Lin Yinan didn't rush back. She found a chair and sat down to watch them slaughter the pig.

These villagers are not only good at farming, but they are also good at slaughtering pigs. With a few strokes of the knife, they separate the pig's head and body and take out the internal organs in a few seconds. Immediately, a woman takes the internal organs in a basin and turns it over to the side to wash it.

Lin Shuo directed the villagers to drag out three more pigs. When they saw the fate of their fellow pigs not far away, they let out heart-wrenching roars.

Its howling was in vain, as the rest of the villagers quickly swarmed over and held it down. The pig's neck was soon cut and its blood flowed into the bucket below.

Seeing that Lin Yinan was still sitting nearby, Lin Shuo came over to talk to her.

"Anan, there are still twenty pigs left to be slaughtered?" Lin Shuo wondered. Didn't they say they should all be killed at once?

"The remaining twenty pigs will be kept and distributed to everyone as year-end rewards."

We can't celebrate such an important New Year without any meat at home. We didn't have the conditions when we fled before, but it's different now.

Twenty pigs will be sent down, and each family will get a lot, but it's better than nothing.

Lin Shuo was a little confused when he heard this. It was not enough for them to eat in the cafeteria, but they could also take it home?

"Does everyone have it?"
