Chapter 359: Little Knowledge About Raising Chickens (Ancient Times) 3
Having said that, Old Man Qin didn't dare to say anything more. He could only nod repeatedly to indicate that he would submit his resignation to the emperor as soon as possible.
Then that afternoon he went to talk to the emperor and came back limping an hour later, probably because he had been kicked.
The emperor had fought on the same battlefield with him, and they had a bit of a brotherly relationship. So even though he couldn't accept his daughter's indulgence in rebellious behavior, he didn't do anything about it. He just had a brief discussion with her and gave her the title of princess.
Although Wu Yuezhao doesn't care about this false reputation, she appreciates kind people.
So he decided to help this emperor who was so kind to his old brother.
Oh, so as not to delay the Qin family’s trip.
He gave Old Man Qin a cup of spiritual spring water, and then asked him to collect the Qin family's money. He then gave them ten golden-armored corpses to protect their safety, and then let them go out for a walk.
They walked slowly. Although Wu Yuezhao had placed bait on Qin Fangyuan, even if they encountered something, the golden armored corpse could handle the matter calmly.
After arranging them, Wu Yuezhao went to his fiefdom outside Beijing and bought a few hilltops in the nearby beautiful area, leased them, and started breeding.
Some of the land is fenced in to raise pigs, sheep and donkeys, and the other part is used to raise chickens.
At the foot of the mountain near the water source, there are a large number of ducks and some geese.
Then they built some land around the mountain and grew sweet potatoes, potatoes, soybeans and corn in the first year.
Then they took the finished products and grain output, handed the sign into the palace, and presented tribute to the emperor.
Since ancient times, people's livelihood has always been the foundation of a country. Food is the first necessity of the people, and grain is the foundation of a country!
No emperor, no matter how incompetent he was, could resist such a large amount of grain.
Naturally, the provenance of the food will be questioned.
Wu Yuezhao simply gave him a new life.
She has learned her lesson. If something like this happens again, she won't explain or argue. She will just regenerate and let the other person understand the situation personally!
The emperor was stunned when he heard Wu Yuezhao say that he felt he was good to Old Qin and they had a brotherly relationship, and he also took a look at Minsheng and thought he was a good emperor, so he decided to help him.
He was instantly excited! Ah! His hard work finally moved the heavens!
Especially after Wu Yuezhao brought the old emperor a cup of spiritual spring water, even though he was an emperor who had fought his way out of thousands of troops, he couldn't help but be moved.
As we all know, sweet potatoes, potatoes, soybeans and corn are the most important species in the world for humans.
There is no need to talk about potatoes. They can grow anywhere, reproduce quickly, and have a strong sense of filling. In times when people were starving to death, potatoes were truly life-saving food.
The same goes for sweet potatoes. Not only can they be eaten after they are ripe, but the sweet potato leaves and stems can also be stir-fried and pickled.
Soybeans have many uses.
Since the discovery of soybeans, people began to use soybeans to extract oil, which gradually replaced pork fat. More and more ordinary people can afford oil, and their health has improved.
The dregs left after soybean oil is extracted can be soaked in water and mixed into feed. Animals can also eat it and become fat after eating it.
Not to mention the status of corn!
It really is a treasure from head to toe. No matter whether it is eaten by humans or animals, it is definitely put to good use!
Moreover, only with these things can we raise livestock better. After all, if people are not full, there will be nothing to feed the livestock.
Pork in this era was called cheap meat, not because it was cheap, but mainly because the food eaten by pigs was particularly poor. In rural areas, people even lived in the upper class and pigs lived at the lower class.
If there is no food to feed the pigs, just feed them with your feces or something.
Who would dare to eat pigs raised like this?
They are not very good at slaughtering pigs.
Actually, it's not that they won't do it. The main reason is that there are no extra hemostatic or anti-inflammatory drugs for livestock at that time. Once a pig is injured and it doesn't eat well, the mortality rate can easily increase, so they basically don't castrate pigs.
But this makes the pigs even more unpalatable.
Except for the breeding pigs, basically all the pigs raised by Wu Yuezhao had to be castrated. Even those with hidden testicles had to be taken out and dealt with separately.
After all, she wants to export it.
Speaking of egg laying, goose eggs are the most delicious, but they are also the least likely to lay eggs, as the goose lays eggs for a very short time.
There are also differences between the north and the south. The south is mainly spring and winter, while the north is from February to June every year.
There is a saying among the old people in Northeast China that once the soybeans bloom, the geese will stop laying eggs.
A goose can only lay 60 to 70 eggs per year, and unlike a chicken, it can lay eggs almost every day once it is open. Even if it is tired, it will only rest for a day or two, and then continue to lay eggs. As long as it has food, it can lay eggs even in winter.
But the goose is different. It has to wait a few days before laying eggs.
Moreover, the peak egg-laying period of chickens is at the turn of the year. They can lay eggs rapidly at around one and a half or two years old and can lay good eggs for two or three years.
But the peak egg-laying period for geese is two or three years old, and they basically stop laying eggs at the age of four.
And compared to chickens, geese eat too much.
Although it is a large livestock and is not prone to illness, it is indeed a bit pretentious. It is not like a duck that can eat all kinds of meat.
Wu Yuezhao buys these geese mainly because she likes to eat goose eggs.
If you take it out, it will be more expensive.
Compared to geese, duck farming is easier.
Although they are not as diligent as chickens in laying eggs, ducks love to lay eggs compared to geese. As long as they have enough nutrition, they can lay eggs basically in the early spring every year and continue to lay eggs until winter and freezing.
Moreover, ducks can eat meat, such as some unwanted lard or some leftovers. It doesn’t matter if there is oil, and it won’t cause stomach upset.
Even if you add a spoonful of melted lard when feeding the ducks for a long time, the yolks of the eggs they lay will have a lard aroma.
After raising the ducks, the females can be kept to lay eggs, while the males can be slaughtered directly and made into roast duck.
In addition, duck offal, such as duck intestines, duck gizzards, and duck feet, can also be made into snacks.
Although it is not very easy to sell in this ancient time, but in the interstellar world, it is in short supply!
In general, duck farming is relatively cost-effective.
Compared to ducks, chickens are even more cost-effective!
In particular, there is a kind of chicken called Wuqijiu. Wu Yuezhao doesn't know why it is named this way, but according to Wei Yang's mother, it is because this chicken can grow up to 12 jin. But in fact, she raised a jin one with ease.
