Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy

Then, Chen Meiju picked up another egg, held it up to the light, and said, "Dongzi, let's take another look at this technique for distinguishing dead eggs."

"This is very important. If we don't pick out the dead eggs, not only will we waste resources, but it may also affect the hatching of other eggs."

"Look, this egg is translucent and there's no movement at all; it's a dead egg."

"And this one, with dark shadows and blood vessels inside, is a normally developing egg."

Chen Dong picked up an egg and examined it, asking curiously, "Second Aunt, how did you learn to tell the difference between a dead egg and a dead one? It looks so difficult."

Chen Meiju smiled and replied, "At first I also thought it was difficult, but my master taught me a little trick."

"It's about putting an egg under a light and looking at it from different angles."

"If there is a dark shadow inside the egg, and the shadow moves as the egg is rotated, then it means that the egg is developing normally."

"If the light is evenly distributed and there are no shadows, then it may be a dead egg."

"It took me a long time to master this skill."

Chen Dong said admiringly, "Second Aunt, you are really patient. This skill of distinguishing dead eggs is indeed very important. If you accidentally put a dead egg into the incubator, you will waste a slot."

Chen Meiju nodded and said, "That's right, so I carefully check these eggs every day and pick out the dead ones. This is to ensure the hatching rate."

Then, Chen Meiju led Chen Dong to a corner where there were several roosters that had been caught.

She picked up the castration scalpel, grinned mischievously, and said, "Dongzi, castration is also an important part of chicken farming."

"Uncastrated roosters grow slowly and love to fight. Watch how I do it."

She skillfully found the right spot, and with a light, clean cut, her movements were swift and efficient.

Seeing these practiced gestures, Chen Dong's lips twitched; he had a feeling that his second aunt was mischievously trying to scare him.

After all, he is a male, with a penis.

Chen Dong thought to himself, "Should I not have been watching this?"

Then, Chen Meiju explained to Chen Dong, "You have to be careful when you castrate the chicken so you don't hurt its vital organs."

"And it has to be quick, accurate, and ruthless, without causing the chicken too much pain."

"My master taught me several times before I mastered this skill."

Looking at his second aunt's skillful movements, Chen Dong exclaimed in surprise, "Second Aunt, your technique is almost on par with a professional veterinarian. I don't even dare to look at that scalpel."

Chen Meiju waved her hand and said, "It's not that exaggerated, but it's all for the good of our chicken farm."

"Castrated roosters grow faster and are more docile, and they won't fight. This will improve the efficiency of chicken farms."

Chen Meiju walked to a box where mealworms were being raised, grabbed a handful of wheat bran and threw it in, saying, "Dongzi, take another look at this wheat bran-based mealworm raising technique."

"These mealworms are excellent feed for chicks, as they are rich in protein."

"The moisture content of the wheat bran should be kept between 10% and 15%, and the temperature should be between 25 and 30 degrees Celsius, so that the mealworms can grow well."

Looking at the mealworms wriggling in the box, Chen Dong asked, "Second Aunt, how do you control the humidity and temperature of this wheat bran? Is there any special method?"

Chen Meiju shook her head slightly and said, "That depends on your sense of touch. I touch the wheat bran with my hand every day to see if the moisture level is sufficient."

"If it's too dry, add some water; if it's too wet, let it air dry."

"As for the temperature, I will use a thermometer to measure the temperature inside the box. If it is too high, I will move the box to a cool place."

"If it's too cold, add some warm clothing."

"Once I start making money, I'll consider testing whether the air conditioners and heaters sold on the market are actually effective."

Chen Dong nodded and smiled, "Second Aunt, you're really amazing. This technique of raising mealworms with wheat bran is indeed very practical. This way, we don't need to buy so much feed, and we can save costs."

Chen Meiju said with a smile, "Yes, although our chicken farm is not big, we have to pay attention to every step."

"Only in this way can we raise chickens better and earn more money."

Looking at his second aunt's earnest expression, Chen Dong said with great satisfaction, "Second Aunt, you've worked so hard. Thanks to you, our chicken farm is going so smoothly."

"You only hold 10% of the shares with your own investment and management, which is a huge loss."

Chen Meiju shook her head and said, "Dongzi, don't say that. You funded the establishment of this chicken farm. I didn't contribute a penny and even have a share. At most, I only contributed some effort."

"And I also believe that as long as we work together, the chicken farm will get better and better, and we will all make money."

Chen Dong smiled confidently and said, "Second Aunt, don't worry. We will definitely make the chicken farm bigger and stronger. In the future, we can expand the scale and raise more chickens."

Chen Meiju nodded and said, "Okay, Dongzi. I'm looking forward to that day too. But for now, we need to focus on raising these 500 free-range chickens properly, one step at a time."

Looking at the bustling scene in the chicken farm, Chen Dong was very confident that this free-range chicken farm would make money quickly.

Because for the next three years, there was inflation, and the stock market and economic development were relatively poor.

When there is large-scale support for the real economy, everyone's wallets will be fuller, and they will have more money to spend.

Next, Chen Dong asked his second aunt some questions about the daily management of the chicken farm.

For example, the feeding time, water intake, and hygiene of the chickens.

Chen Meiju patiently answered Chen Dong's questions, saying, "Dongzi, the chickens should be fed at a fixed time, not too early and not too late."

"We usually feed them once in the morning and once in the evening. We also make sure they have plenty of water, especially in the summer, as chickens get thirsty very easily."

"Hygiene is also very important. The chicken coop should be cleaned regularly to keep it clean and tidy."

Chen Dong listened attentively, taking his second aunt's words to heart.

Then Chen Dong said, "Second Aunt, you're right. These details are very important, and we can't ignore them."

Chen Meiju added, "Also, we need to pay attention to the health of the chickens. If any chickens are found to be sick, they should be isolated and treated in time to prevent the disease from spreading."

Chen Dong nodded and said, "I understand, Second Aunt. We must always pay attention to the chickens' health and make sure they don't get sick."

They chatted as they walked through the chicken farm.

Looking at those lively and adorable free-range chickens, Chen Dong felt as if he had seen money.

Finally, Chen Dong said to his second aunt, "Second aunt, keep up the good work! I believe that under your management, our chicken farm will only get better and better!"

"Feel free to contact me anytime if you have any questions."

Chen Meiju smiled and said, "Okay, Dongzi. Don't worry, I will definitely manage the chicken farm well."

Chen Dong rode his bicycle away from the chicken farm.
