After returning home in the carriage driven by Tang Xiaowu, he found that the whole family was not at home. They must have gone to chop wood or clean the rabbit house. After seeing Tang Xiaowu off and sorting out the boxes of popcorn, Xu Congyi bought five pairs of rabbits with cubs from the space before his family came back. This month, excluding the rest days, he would need to send rabbits to eat cold food for about 20 days. If he sent three rabbits a day, he would need 60 rabbits, so he had to raise some more. If the market response was good, he could supply them. If not, it was almost winter now, and the rabbit meat could be preserved for a while, so he could share it with the villagers.

I also bought a few large porcelain jars from the space, washed them and placed them in the kitchen. The jars are not small, enough to hold three cold rabbits, and can also be used to pickle salted eggs and salted duck eggs, as well as pickled sauerkraut. In short, they can be used.

After putting everything in place, Xu Congyi carried the five pairs of meat rabbits he had bought to the rabbit house. When he got there, he saw that everyone in the family was in the rabbit house. It turned out that a new litter of baby rabbits had been born, and the Xu family was in the process of moving the rabbits to a new nest. Now that the rabbit house was bigger, the baby rabbits had plenty of space to grow.

Xu Congyi handed the rabbit in his hand to his father, and told everyone about the cooperation with Tang Wenhao to eat cold rabbit and the free trial for one month. He also told his father that in the future, whenever he wanted to make popcorn, he should kill three rabbits every day in preparation. They could be killed today and sent to Tang Wenhao the day after tomorrow.

Hunter Xu readily agreed. He always paid close attention to his daughter's requests. When he left, he picked three rabbits, cleaned them up at home, cut them into small pieces according to his daughter's request, washed them twice with clean water, and then added clean water and a little white wine to remove the fishy smell and soak out the blood. Hunter Xu did not throw away the remaining rabbit skins. As a hunter, he was also a good tanner. He could tan these rabbit skins to make them soft, strong and wear-resistant, which was just right for his daughter to make a rabbit skin coat.

……

According to Xu Congyi's method of dividing the cold rabbit into small portions as gifts, in just five days, the business of Tangji Pastry has improved. Many people come to buy pastries for the gifts, and many people ask the guys of Tangji Pastry what kind of meat is given away, and it has a special taste that makes people want to eat it again and again, and ask where to buy it. The guys have all been trained in the art of speaking, which is also something that Xu Congyi and Tang Wenhao have come across before. They say that this is the recipe that Tangji bought from foreigners, and they will try it first to let everyone taste it and see the effect. If everyone likes it, they will prepare to open another store to sell it. The reason why they don't say it was Xu Congyi's idea is that Xu Congyi is afraid of trouble, so he directly pushes it to the foreigners to avoid worries.

Seeing that the cold rabbit was very popular, Xu Congyi asked his father to buy some pig offal and braise it and send it to Tangji. At first, everyone was a little resistant to this "stinky" gift, but after eating it, they found that this method was not smelly at all and was delicious. The subsequent gifts became three cold rabbits and a plate of braised pig offal every day.

Less than half of the one-month gift period has passed, and Xu Congyi is planning to expand the scale of his rabbit breeding. He now raises three rabbits a day and the response is good, so the chances of opening a store are very high. Pig offal is easy to get, and there are quite a few pigs slaughtered in the city every day, so long-term cooperation can be achieved in the future. However, there are not many rabbits, and rabbit meat is rich in diesel and water. People who have some money want to buy fatty pork to satisfy their cravings. Purchasing power is low, so very few people raise rabbits.

Every afternoon, the Xu family would go to the rabbit house to clean up and then go up the mountain to chop firewood. Only Xu Congyi was at home. Because she had to help with the popcorn cold rabbit and the brine, so this day after Tang Xiaowu left, Xu Congyi bought 20 pairs of rabbits directly from the space, and the female rabbits were also carrying their cubs. More than 30 rabbits have been used to make cold rabbits during this period, so Xu Congyi bought some more. She thought about it and bought another pig. There were less than two months left before the Chinese New Year, and the price of pork would definitely rise. Instead of spending a lot of money to buy pork at the market, it would be more convenient and worry-free to feed it yourself. The pig was not too big or too small, and it would be almost enough by the Chinese New Year after two months of feeding, and there happened to be a pigpen at home.

There were too many rabbits to carry, so Xu Congyi used the family cart to push the twenty pairs of rabbits to the rabbit house. As for the pair of little white rabbits, Xu Congyi planned to keep them in the rabbit house. As there were not many rabbits left, the hunter Xu and his wife went up the mountain to chop wood. The old man Xu and his wife were responsible for cleaning the rabbit house. Only the finishing work was left. The old man Xu asked his wife to wait for him at the door. Xu's mother saw a little person pushing a cart from a distance. Xu's mother didn't pay attention. When the little person came closer, she found that it was her precious granddaughter pushing a cart of rabbits.

"Yi Yi, where did you get so many rabbits?" Xu's mother exclaimed.

Hearing his wife's voice, Old Man Xu, who had just cleaned up the vacant rabbit house, stood up and walked to the door. When he saw the cart of rabbits pushed by his precious granddaughter, he couldn't help but ask the same question as his wife.

"Yiyi, where did you get so many rabbits?"

"I asked Mr. Tang to buy me some good-quality rabbits, and they all have pups. Now more and more customers are asking about eating cold rabbits, and we don't have enough rabbits. Tang Xiaowu brought them to me just now, and I rushed to send them to the rabbit house. He also bought me a piglet, which I put in the pigsty."

Hearing that it was Tang Wenhao who helped buy them, Old Man Xu did not think any more about it. He just thought that the rabbits with kittens were bought specially for better business in the future. He separated the twenty pairs of rabbits according to male and female and put them into the rabbit house. The originally empty rabbit house became lively again. After settling the rabbits, he hurried home to see the pigs.
