Being able to farm: starting from moving to the village and picking up furry

"It's been nine years since then, and I don't know when I'll be able to succeed."

Putting away the red triangular fruit in his hand, Wang Zhufu looked outside the shop.

He remembered that one time when he went to his grandmother's house for a banquet, he happened to eat wild boar meat cooked by his uncle. The taste is still fresh in his memory.

He came to help out in his brother's butcher shop and had this idea. He then discussed the topic of breeding with his uncle. Although his uncle did not refute his idea, he also thought it was a bit far-fetched.

Xia Qingyu was a little surprised when she heard what the young boy said.

I thought about this kind of question at such a young age and persisted for so many years.

"If you're lucky and nothing unexpected happens, you might succeed this time."

After saying this, Xia Qingyu saw Wang Zhufu looking at her happily, and then she promised solemnly: "Thank you, Sister Xia. Once I succeed, I will definitely pick the biggest one and give that piglet to you."

Xia Qingyu smiled and said, "Then I wish you success soon."

She also told Wang Zhufu the precautions about the triangular fruit. One triangular fruit can be used by the wild boar for five or six months.

During this period, Wang Zhufu had enough time to raise wild boars safely from breeding to the birth of piglets.

As we were talking, we heard footsteps coming from inside the house.

The two looked back and saw that it was Li Yanxi and Wang Zhusheng who came back.

"Haha, you silly brother, you haven't even started raising wild boars yet, and you've already promised Sister Qingyu. If it doesn't work out, you can just wait to cry."

Coming out of the house, Wang Zhusheng heard their conversation, laughed out loud, and started teasing his younger brother.

"Brother, that won't happen. Sister Xia just said that if I'm lucky, hehe, I will succeed this time." Wang Zhufu smiled and told his elder brother about what he had talked about with Xia Qingyu.

Now, Wang Zhusheng was also looking forward to it, "Brother, come on, I'm waiting for your good news."

Because of what happened today, Wang Zhusheng believes in the girl Xia Qingyu and also believes in his own brother.

No one would have thought that one day in the future, this young boy would breed wild fragrant boars that would be famous all over the world and in great demand.

"By the way, that wild boar weighs 688 kilograms." Wang Zhusheng told his brother the weight of the wild boar, and then called Li Yanxi to the side.

"Sister Xia, we agreed today that wild boar is 31 coins per catty, so this is 21 taels, 328 coins." After counting the silver in the wooden box, Wang Zhufu handed the silver to Xia Qingyu.

Nodding, Xia Qingyu took the silver.

Sitting on the bench, Wang Zhufu added: "I promised before that if there is a way for me to raise wild boars, I will make up the extra money after the breeding is successful."

While cutting meat in front of the chopping board, Wang Zhusheng raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. He did not ask any more questions about his brother's behavior.

This time his brother injured his foot and head and was bedridden for half a month. He has only been out of bed for a few days now.

Because he was thinking about breeding, and there was no way to buy live ones, he took people to the mountains to catch them.

Now, with the wild boar sent by Sister Qingyu, my brother won’t catch it himself to avoid getting hurt again. This is a good thing.

My brother was injured this time and the cost of seeing a doctor and buying medicine was much more expensive than buying this wild boar, but it was worth the money.

"Then we'll go first. We need to go buy some other things."

After delivering the pig, taking the silver and saying goodbye to the two brothers, Xia Qingyu and Li Yanxi planned to buy other things.

Seeing Xia Qingyu and Li Yanxi were about to leave, Wang Zhusheng hurriedly called them to stop.

"Sister Qingyu, Brother Yanxi, wait a moment." Wang Zhusheng took out the bones left over from selling meat today, "Take these pork bones and offal back with you."

"No, no." Li Yanxi and Xia Qingyu stopped and shook their heads to refuse.

No reward without merit, they cannot take other people's things for free.

What's more, one should be soft-hearted when receiving favors from others.

"Keep it for yourselves, no need to give it to ..."

Before he could finish his words, Wang Zhufu beside him interrupted with a smile, "Sister Xia, Brother Yanxi, just consider this as helping."

Knowing his brother's habit, he made a special explanation, "Otherwise, when my brother sees these things spoiled and there are so many left, he will think it's a waste and will nag me all night."

Hearing his younger brother mumbling and trying to persuade others, telling about his past experiences, Wang Zhusheng did not feel ashamed. He and his younger brother had lived in Muqiang Town for so many years, and the neighbors living nearby all knew about his family's situation.

"You silly brother, I am thankful that you are not picky about food."

As Wang Zhusheng spoke, he had already taken out a bamboo backpack, grabbed a handful of straw with his big hands, and put it in the backpack.

This is a common way they sell pork. Straw has the property of absorbing water, so it can absorb the blood on the surface of the pork, keeping it as dry as possible and making it convenient for people to hold.

Then he turned around and put the pile of pig bones that the butcher's shop had removed from selling pork today into his bamboo backpack one by one.

Finally, a large wooden basin filled with pig offal was brought out from under the chopping board.

After putting several layers of lotus leaves as padding, Wang Zhusheng poured all the pig offal into the lotus leaves, wrapped them in several layers, and put them into a bamboo basket.

"Here, just take it, don't be embarrassed." Seeing that they were about to refuse him again, Wang Zhusheng looked up and said with a smile: "Anyway, my silly brother and I can't finish it. It's hot in this weather, and it will go bad easily if we keep it."

Wang Zhufu, who was standing next to them, tilted his head and whispered to Xia Qingyu and the others.

It turned out that Wang Zhufu and his brother were driven out by their father who favored his concubine over his wife because their mother died and their father remarried.

When I was a child, I was hungry for five days in a row and made a living with my brother. I almost died. Fortunately, my uncle saved them. Because of that experience, my brother Wang Zhusheng couldn't bear to see others waste food.

"We sell pork, and there are a lot of pig bones left every day. When we are lucky, someone will buy the offal, but when we are unlucky, we will throw it away every day."

Sometimes when there is too much left, they will take it back and give it to their neighbors and relatives.

But some neighbors, if you send it this time, you will be questioned if you don’t send it next time. As a result, Wang Zhusheng didn’t want to send it anymore and asked his younger brother to deal with it. As long as it wasn’t thrown in front of him and he couldn’t see it, it was fine.

"You silly brother, you are the only one who talks too much." Wang Zhusheng smiled helplessly, bent down, hugged with both hands, and took out the bamboo bag.

At the same time, Li Yanchuan walked from the end of the street, intending to go to Wang's butcher shop to ask whether the wild boar had been delivered, and to see if there was any pork left. He wanted to buy some pork to take back.

A quarter of an hour later, the city gate was about to close. He went to the butcher's shop to buy meat, but found that most of the meat was basically sold out.

Li Laoer and his younger brothers agreed that some would go to the grain store to buy coarse grains, and some would go to the grocery store to buy daily necessities, and everyone would go shopping separately.

They all remembered what their seventh brother's wife had said. She had told them that the money had been given to them and they should spend it where necessary.

Seeing Xia Qingyu and the others, Li Laoer's eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted in surprise, "Brother, Seventh Sister-in-law, did you send the wild boar over?"

Then Li Yanchuan asked Wang Zhufu who was sitting in front of the chopping block, "Is there any fat left? If there is, chop off ten pounds."
