Rebirth 1978, Wife, I won't go back to the city

"I said Li knows about it. Can Boss Zhao Fei really buy these piglets?"

Some people are still worried after all.

After all, this little piglet is worth a lot of money.

"Of course. I asked Zhao Fei, and he's now using some of the funds for pigpen construction."

"There's still some money left, enough to buy 200 piglets."

"200?"

Hearing Li Jingshen's words, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

This is really worth a lot of money.

Li Jingshen continued, "Also, I've discussed with Zhao Fei that we won't buy black pigs from the county town."

"Not buying from the county town? Then where can we buy it?" Village Party Secretary Zhang Zhenming was also confused.

If I don’t buy it from the county, where can I buy it?

Don’t you all buy them from the county town?

He also didn't remember that Li Jingshen had any other options.

Instead, Li Jingshen smiled and said, "Uncle, since our Xiaoxi Village wants to get rich."

"Then you must take the right path to wealth."

"Not only are black pigs difficult to raise, but they also don't produce enough meat. If we continue to raise black pigs, what will happen?"

"I really don't know how I lost money."

"Then what should we raise?" Zhang Zhenming looked at Li Jingshen in confusion.

"Zhao Fei and I have discussed that if we are going to raise pigs, we will raise white-haired pigs." Li Jingshen said happily.

"What? White-haired pig?"

"There are white-haired pigs? I've never heard of that."

"Yeah, aren't all pigs black? We in Daxia have been raising pigs for thousands of years, so how come there are still white-haired pigs?"

"I have seen wild boars before, but their fur is brown. I have never seen a white one."

Li Jingshen was naturally clear about what everyone was saying.

It is understandable that the farmers of Daxia Kingdom did not know about white-haired pigs.

The white-haired pig is indeed a foreign breed.

This has never happened in the Great Xia Kingdom. One can even say that the Great Xia Kingdom has always had black pigs.

This black pig is not only extremely difficult to feed, but also has a low meat yield.

Moreover, an adult black and white pig weighs at most 100-120 kilograms.

Wanting to get rich by raising black pigs is simply a pipe dream.

But this white-haired pig is different.

These white-haired pigs are indeed the result of more advanced breeding and breeding techniques from abroad.

Not only does the meat yield of a pig have a high rate, but it also requires scientific breeding.

At least 250-300 kilograms of meat can be produced.

This is a real big fat pig.

Thinking of this, Li Jingshen continued, "This white-haired pig, also known as the Landrace pig, is originally from Denmark."

"It was introduced to my country more than a decade ago, but due to cost and breeding technology issues, it has not been promoted on a large scale."

"But the advantages of this type of pig are obvious. They are long, have good reproductive performance, grow fast, produce a lot of meat, and have a high feed utilization rate."

“Also, sows have larger litters, more milk, and higher weaning litter weights.”

"It's much better than black pigs. Of course, the most important thing is that the meat yield of white pigs is much higher than that of black pigs."

After hearing what Li Jingshen said, everyone became interested.

This high meat yield means that you can at least sell it for more money.

A high meat yield means that any remaining meat can be shared among the villagers.

These days, who can eat meat every day?

No.

Of course, except Li Jingshen’s family!

In short, the benefits of this white-haired pig are obvious.

Because of this, when Li Jingshen said this, everyone was very happy and very much hoped to be able to carry out breeding.

"Li Zhizhi, you know me. I don't understand this foreign pig thing you're talking about, but I just want to know, can it work?"

"Yes, we all work so hard for the pig farm every day. Although we are paid, you know, we only get 10 yuan. Not only do we waste time, but if it doesn't work out, what will we do in the future?"

"Don't worry, it will definitely work." Li Jingshen said again with certainty.

It’s not that Li Jingshen is confident, but he knows very well that white-haired pigs are the most important source of pork in later generations.

Even the prices haven't dropped much.

In addition, since people in Daxia naturally like to eat pork, raising pigs will definitely not be a loss.

In just three decades, white pigs were able to occupy the domestic pork market and almost drove the local black pigs to extinction.

The advantage is obvious.

Li Jingshen is not worried at all about things that have been tested by the market.

After hearing what Li Jingshen said, the old branch secretary Zhang Zhenming asked.

"Then where can we buy this really good white pig you mentioned? Who knows, they might not even sell it to us. And even if they do, the price won't be outrageous, right?"

Li Jingshen immediately said, "Uncle, don't worry about this matter. I will ask someone in the provincial capital for help."

"The provincial agricultural university or seed station should have some, but I don't know if they're selling them."

"But don't worry, I'm sure I can find a way," Li Jingshen said.

He also has connections in the province. Since he has connections, this matter will definitely be easy to handle.

Seeing that Li Jingshen had said so much, Zhang Zhenming, as his uncle, would definitely support him.

"Okay, since you said so, I believe you."

"Just go ahead and do it. We'll just follow your instructions and raise these white-haired pigs."

"But if that doesn't work, we can just raise black pigs. We won't lose out anyway." Zhang Zhenming said happily.

Seeing his uncle's support, Li Jingshen nodded and said, "Don't worry, uncle. You can trust me to do the job."

When the others heard Li Jingshen say this, they naturally chose to believe him.

After all, the money was paid by Zhao Fei.

If they make money, then other people in the village can also make some extra money and raise some white pigs to make money in the future.

It doesn't matter if we lose money, it's not our own money anyway.

This is the benefit of a market economy.

You are responsible for your own profits and losses, everything is yours!

After the village committee meeting, Li Jingshen returned home.

On the way back, Zhang Zhenming and Li Jingshen came out together.

The two of them were chatting casually.

Suddenly, Li Jingshen asked, "Uncle, are you acquainted with that martyr Yuan?"

Zhang Zhenming then said directly: "I can't hide it from you, kid."

After saying that, he sighed: "Yuan Shengli and I were soldiers in the same year, but after I retired, I returned to Xiaoxi Village, while he stayed in the army."

"Uncle, if I remember correctly, you've been retired for many years. I'm afraid your old comrade must have a high rank in the army, right?"

Zhang Zhenming shook his head helplessly: "What's the point of being taller? I'm still human."

"But a soldier should die on the frontier, returning home wrapped in his horse's hide."

Then, Zhang Zhenming looked into the distance and said, "Yuan Shengli, you are a real man."

"I, Zhang Zhenming, am not as good as you!"
