There was meat, vegetables and soup, and each person had a bowl of millet rice. Rice in the mall only costs two yuan per catty, but millet costs six yuan per catty, which is three times more expensive than rice. However, rice is a precious commodity here, and there were too many people eating, so Xiuying could only reluctantly buy millet at six yuan per catty.

"Congratulations, Xiuying. Your life is getting better and better, and you've even built a big house."

"Congratulations, Xiuying!"

During the meal, the women came to the main table with cups filled with rice wine to toast. The women who came all sincerely wished Xiuying well.

They envy Sooyoung and hope to be like her.

Xiuying raised her glass and thanked everyone one by one.

"Thank you all for taking care of us orphans and widows. I hope you will take good care of us in the future."

Mrs. Sun drank the rice wine in her cup and said with a smile, "Thanks to Xiuying, my family can now eat black noodles. I'll drink this cup of wine."

The men at another table watched their wives toast Xiuying, afraid of missing her.

After dinner, the old village chief and the villagers stood outside the pigpen. The pigpen was still empty, but more than a hundred chickens and ducks were already fed on the other side.

"Xiuying's chickens are so well-grown."

"Xiuying's family is now a major chicken farmer in the village."

"What do Xiuying's chickens eat? How come they're so big?"

"Yeah, this chicken is just growing meat."

Everyone craned their necks to look into the chicken trough, wanting to see what Xiuying's chickens were eating. They saw that it was just wheat bran mixed with chopped wild vegetables, which was no different from what their own chickens ate.

My chickens and Xiuying's chickens eat the same food, so why do theirs grow so much better? In conclusion, Xiuying is just lucky.

Now every household raises a few chickens, and Mrs. Sun's family raises five chickens. After the family stored more than 100 kilograms of black flour, they took the remaining food to Yangliu Town to exchange for chickens to raise.

The chickens in the chicken coop are broiler chickens that Xiuying bought from the supermarket. The largest one can grow to more than ten pounds. It’s not because they are well raised or Xiuying is lucky, but because these chickens are destined to grow that big.

The old village chief looked at the chickens in the chicken coop and marveled: "I have lived for decades and raised many chickens, but I have never seen one that looks like the chickens in this chicken coop."

Everyone agreed

"Yeah, I've never seen a chicken that big. This chicken is specifically designed to grow meat."

"I estimate that the smallest chicken in this chicken pen weighs at least eight pounds!"

"The eggs these chickens at Xiuying's house lay are also big."

"Wow, how much money can we make from selling these chickens and eggs?"

Xiuying stood aside and answered, "I originally wanted to raise some chickens to nourish the children, and these chickens were fed by the children who went up the mountain to cut grass and mixed it with wheat bran.

I dig up some earthworms from time to time. These chickens don't cost much to feed, and the eggs they lay can provide nutrition for the children and can be sold for money, so I feed them more."

Those present were all elderly people from the village, and they all nodded.

"I think Xiuying's life is getting better and better after she separated from the family. The key is that she knows how to make a living."

"Yes, if you don't know how to live, even the biggest fortune will be ruined."

"Xiuying, tell us why these chickens are so healthy. We can learn from them."

"Yeah, my chickens only grow to three or four pounds at most, then they stop growing and lay small eggs."

Before building the new house, everyone noticed that the chickens in Xiuying's chicken coop were big, full of meat, and laid big eggs.

Everyone had been wanting to ask Xiuying about this for a long time, and now they finally had the chance. At the same time, they were unsure. Xiuying's chickens were so healthy, weighing over ten pounds each. How much would they sell for?

Why should others tell you about a profitable business?

Xiuying hadn't originally intended to hide them. With so many chickens, it would be impossible to hide them. Besides, the broiler chicks from the supermarket were only two yuan each, so the business of raising broiler chickens could be handed over to the villagers.

All those present were the elderly who had the final say in the family. Xiuying carefully told everyone what she had prepared in advance.

“To be honest, the chickens in my chicken coop are chicks I bought from merchants outside the Great Wall.

These chickens are called white-feathered broilers. Unlike the local chickens here, broilers are specialized in growing meat, growing bigger in size, and laying bigger eggs.

The local chickens here are of a different breed from broiler chickens. No matter how you raise them, they only weigh a few kilograms.

Broiler chickens from Saiwai can grow to over ten kilograms and grow quickly, taking only 45 days from chick to market."

White-feathered broiler chickens, also known as the "fighting chickens" of meat, are a breed bred by Chinese scientists by crossbreeding recessive white chickens from abroad with domestic yellow-feathered chickens. They boast rapid growth and strong adaptability, making them one of the most widely raised chicken breeds in China.

When everyone heard that it was a new species from outside the Great Wall, they nodded heavily.

"No wonder this chicken is different from the ones we have here."

"Yes, it turns out this is a new species from outside the Great Wall."

"Xiuying is still the most capable one."

Everyone looked at Xiuying with envy, and then at the broiler chickens in the chicken coop.

Chickens can be sold for 25 coins per catty in Nanyang Prefecture. A broiler chicken like the one in Xiuying's family grows to 8-10 catties, so the minimum price for a chicken is 200 coins!

Moreover, it only takes 45 days for broiler chickens to be marketed, which is much more cost-effective than raising local chickens.

If I could buy a few chickens from Xiuying's house to use as breeding stock, then the chickens would lay eggs, and the eggs would lay chickens. Before long, wouldn't I be able to take the chickens to the provincial capital to sell them?

Everyone looked at the chickens in the chicken coop with envy, but no one mentioned anything. Everyone knew that these broiler chickens were Xiuying's family's livelihood.

A few days ago, Xiuying took care of everyone and changed their faces to black faces. Later, with the help of Xiuying, many people grew drought-resistant and high-yield rice. They have already received enough from Xiuying, and people should not be greedy.

Xiuying looked at the crowd that had suddenly quieted down and said softly, "These broiler chickens are easier to raise than the local ones here. All you need to do is chop more wild vegetables and mix them with wheat bran, and occasionally feed them some earthworms.

If you want to raise broiler chickens, you can exchange them for local chickens. One old hen can be exchanged for two broiler chicks."

Broiler chicks in the mall are two yuan each, and the recycling price of local chickens is 25 yuan per pound. Xiuying is making a profit by exchanging a local old hen for two broiler chicks.

Everyone looked at Xiuying in stunned silence.

Is Xiuying going to hand over the broiler chicken business to everyone?

Can one native chicken be exchanged for two broiler chicks?

The old village chief recovered from his shock and asked uncertainly, "Did you just say one old hen in exchange for two broiler chicks?"

Xiuying nodded heavily. "We are all from the same village. If I get good chicks, I will share them with everyone to raise. Only when we all become prosperous together can we maintain long-term prosperity."
