Farming from the end of the world

Taking advantage of the summer vacation, Chen Guo planned to rebuild a better chicken coop.

The simple chicken coop built to save money before has been exposed to wind and sun for a year, and now the iron sheet has rusted, and the asbestos tiles have also been damaged a lot, and many places will leak in rainy days.

Taking advantage of some spare money in hand and Zhou Lu who is on vacation to help, Chen Guo immediately approached Zhao Quan to discuss building a chicken coop.He plans to expand the breeding. According to his idea, the size of the chicken coop will be doubled, and another insulation room will be built.The crop of corn planted this spring has been harvested, and the vacant land can be used to build a chicken coop.

Zhao Quan listened to his thoughts, nodded and said that this job is no problem.

Chen Guo often cooperates with him, so she said with confidence: "Then I will trouble you, Uncle Zhao, you can handle the materials and labor according to your needs, and I will transfer the money to you directly."

Zhao Quan smiled: "Okay, leave it to me." After talking about the business, Zhao Quan suddenly said, "Speaking of Xiaoguo, you have made some money now, why don't you want to tear down the old house and build a new one?" Guy, your house is old, so it must be uncomfortable to live in, right?"

This is true, the old-fashioned brick houses are prone to dust, difficult to clean, bugs and mice often live in the corners and cracks, the lighting is not good, and there is often a musty smell in rainy days, it is really not comfortable to live in.

But this is nothing to Chen Guo, he has already experienced even the worst living conditions in his previous life, and the house now can shelter both wind and rain, which is much better than before.

Of course, who would not want to live better if conditions permit?He would also be a little jealous when passing by other people's newly built two-story buildings, but now the money in his hand is not enough to properly build a house.

So he replied: "Isn't it because there is not enough money? If I want to build it, I will build it better. After a while, save more money. I will definitely have to trouble you, Uncle Zhao!"

Zhao Quan then laughed even happier: "Our Xiaoguo is promising, so uncle is waiting, and I will definitely cover you beautifully when the time comes!"

Zhao Quan's mobility was very fast, and various building materials began to be transported up the mountain the next day. With a smooth stone road, there was no need to use a small cart to transport slowly like last year, and the progress was naturally much faster.

Zhao Quan asked two young men from the village to help him this year, together with Chen Guo and Zhou Lu, it was enough.

A few people built the heat preservation room first, and Chen Guo thought that if they built two separately, they would need double firewood for the fire, which would be a waste, so she asked Zhao Quan if he could build the new heat preservation room with the original one so that the smoke The road is connected and the firewood is shared.

Zhao Quan calculated it and thought it was feasible, so several people started construction next to the old heat preservation room.

Last year, an insulation room was built, and a few people who knew the way well built a new one in a few days.Next is the chicken coop. Chen Guo intends to use the same materials as the insulation room for the new chicken coop, hollow bricks and asbestos tiles.

Build a rectangular building according to the terrain, and then leave a square door opening on the wall for the chickens to enter and exit. Set up a solid iron hanging door. Raise the hanging door in the morning to let the chickens go out for food and play, and lower the hanging door at night to prevent some carnivores. Wildlife.

Chen Guo did not treat the ground in the previous simple chicken coop. The chickens walked around and excreted freely on the ground, which was easy to breed bacteria and cause diseases.Considering the health of the chickens and the impact on tourists when the fruit trees in the forest bloom and bear fruit, Chen Guo plans to cover the entire chicken coop with rice husks as bedding, and dig a sandpit in the corner as a bathing pool for the chickens.

The new chicken coop was completed half a month later. After transferring all the big chickens to the new chicken coop, several people spent some time dismantling the old chicken coop. The discarded building materials were either thrown or sold, making the place completely vacant.

Being bare is really not pretty, so Chen Guo planned to plant some wild flowers in this open space.

After searching on the Internet, he found that the milk vetch is quite good, with small and cute flowers and bright colors. When it blooms, it is a good nectar source plant. The stems and leaves can be used as green fodder for chickens, and the soil requirements are not high.

I searched online, and found that this thing is suitable for sowing in early autumn. Chen Guo immediately bought some seeds online, and planted them when the weather turned cooler.

The summer vacation is relatively long, and Zhou Lu still has more than ten days of vacation left after he is busy with the new chicken coop.

The 17-year-old boy spends his days filming, editing, and managing his account, and I don't see him having any pastimes.Sometimes Chen Guo couldn't help suspecting that there was an old man living in this guy's body.

Boys of this age should like playing games, traveling, sports and so on?

Zhou Lu does morning exercises every morning, but I don't see any sports he particularly likes. He doesn't even seem to have much interest in basketball, which is generally liked by boys at this age.

I have never seen him play games, and the network cable has been pulled at home, but he uses the computer to surf the Internet every day to manage his account or browse some current affairs news.

Maybe it's tourism?Because the cost of travel is too high, you have been afraid to mention it to yourself?

So after dinner that day, Chen Guo asked directly: "Zhou Lu, you have worked hard during this time, and now you have some days left to leave school, are you interested in going on a trip? If so, I will sign up for a group tour for you." .” Chen Guo calculated that it would not cost much for him to sign up for a week-long tour group by himself.

Zhou Lv paused while clearing the table, and looked at Chen Guo suspiciously: "You want to travel? But if we go travel, what will the chicken do?"

Chen Guo was even more puzzled than him: "I didn't say we'll go together, you're the only one going."

The corners of Zhou Lu's mouth drooped a little immediately, he lowered his head and put some dishes into the basin, and carried them under the faucet. With the sound of splashing water, he said, "I'm not interested in traveling."

"I'm not interested in traveling either..." Chen Guo rubbed her chin. She really didn't understand what this little brat was thinking, so she got up, pulled a small stool and sat next to Zhou Lu, and asked directly, "Then what do you like?" What?"

like you--

Forcibly swallowing the words in his heart, Zhou Lu shook his head lightly: "I don't like anything, don't worry about it."

It's really strange that a good young man doesn't have any preferences.

Chen Guo then got up and left the kitchen, rummaging for a change of clothes while thinking, planning to take a shower.

Clothes, shoes, school bags, whatever you buy him, he will wear.I am not picky when eating, and I can eat all kinds of vegetables and meat as staple foods.I don't have any complaints about the house, and I slept soundly when I laid the floor.To go out, either rely on the bus, or rely on that dilapidated old bicycle.

There are no requirements for basic necessities of life, food, shelter, and transportation, and he is as ascetic as a monk.

No, monks are still taboo and don't eat meat.

After entering the bathroom, Chen Guo continued to think while flushing the water, thinking about it. One of the few things this kid actively expressed "want to do" was to invite himself to cooperate in filming videos, and he also planned to apply for a major in the future.

That's photography!

After quickly rinsing off the foam on her body, Chen Guo quickly put on her clothes and left the bathroom while wiping her hair with a towel. After finding her mobile phone in the living room, she clicked on the shopping app.

Since Zhou Lu likes photography, then give him a better video camera.

Chen Guo happily clicked on the search, then the corners of her mouth froze.

The scary price on the page made him quickly exit the software, staring at the phone in a daze.

"What's the matter, don't you feel stupid if you don't wipe your hair here?" Zhou Lv, who had cleaned up the kitchen, entered the living room and saw Chen Guo who was staring at the phone blankly, with a towel on his head but didn't wipe it, letting the hair drip Water droplets wet the thin white T-shirt on the shoulders.

The wetted area became translucent, revealing the flesh color faintly.

Zhou Lu's throat twitched inexplicably, and the movement of reaching out to wipe Chen Guo's hair stopped.

Chen Guo also came back to her senses, said casually that she was fine, grabbed a towel and rubbed her hair.

Alas... a better camera is really too expensive. He just built a new chicken coop, and he has to save the money in his hand to buy feed for the chickens, which is really unaffordable.

Forget it, talk about it later.

Thinking of this, I feel a little sorry for Zhou Lu, who has been working so hard, and a good summer vacation is too busy, so I don't have to take a good rest. Compared with the original owner, he was much better than Chen Wu, but he himself He can't even afford to give him something he likes.

The more she thought about it, the more guilty she felt, Chen Guo suddenly stood up and walked to Zhou Lu's side, stretching out her hands and hugging him into her arms.

Zhou Lu was dumbfounded.

After hugging Chen Guo, she realized that Zhou Lu was already half a head taller than him, and the shame in her heart disappeared immediately, and a little jealousy arose instead.

Forcibly pressing Zhou Lu's head to his shoulder, he stroked Zhou Lu's hair like an elder: "I'm sorry, Zhou Lu, I can't give you what you like for now—"

Buried on Chen Guo's shoulder, Zhou Lv, who was so happy that he was almost bubbling, felt his heart skip a beat, and his whole body stiffened with nervousness.

What does it mean?Could it be... did he find out?What I like, what I like, is not just him!

No, it shouldn't be!

Forcing himself to calm down, Zhou Lu took a deep breath of the faint scent of shampoo left on Chen Guo's body, grabbed Chen Guo's arm and separated the two, suppressing the trembling in his voice, and asked calmly, "What did you say, what did you say?" Something I like?"

"It's a video camera." Chen Guo, who was pulled away by him, sat back on the chair and sighed, "Don't you like photography? I originally wanted to buy you a better professional video camera, but the price is too expensive I just gave up."

Zhou Lu breathed a sigh of relief.

Half of it was unrevealed ease, while the other half was filled with inexplicable regret.

Withdrawing from his emotions, he whispered: "Don't give me such a good thing."

Naturally, I was very moved. Some people missed me and carefully selected my favorite things to give to me. I felt guilty and comforted myself after I couldn’t send them.

Even an ordinary friend is enough to be moved, let alone this person is someone I like.

Walking to Chen Guo's side, he picked up a towel and wiped Chen Guo's wet hair, and said, "Even if you give it to me now, I won't need it. There are still two years before the college entrance examination, and it may not be possible to pass the exam." .”

"Stop, stop!" Chen Guo turned her head and glared at him, "Don't say such unmotivated words, I'm from a parallel world, so it's understandable not to retake the exam. You can't do it! You must pass the exam!"

Realizing that his tone was serious, Chen Guo paused for a moment, and then said coquettishly: "Your grades are so good, you must be fine. When you are admitted to university, you can choose a video camera by yourself. I'll buy it for you no matter how expensive it is, okay?"

Zhou Lu looked deeply into his eyes, moved his throat, and asked in a low voice, "What if I... want something else?"

"Buy!" Chen Guo waved his hand proudly, "As long as your brother can afford it, I will buy you whatever you want!"

Zhou Lv laughed, and snapped his head back: "Don't worry, you can definitely afford it."

……

More than ten days passed in a flash. In September, Zhou Lu started school, packed his things and went back to school.

Chen Guo rested the vacant land for a while, sprinkled vetch seeds, and surrounded it with barbed wire to prevent chickens from eating the seedlings.

The gaps in the barbed wire are very large, which can stop chickens, but not butterflies and bees.Chen Guo planned to keep bees here in the future, and when the zi vetch was open, it happened to be nearby for bees to collect honey.

When he is free, he also looks up some information on beekeeping and learns. Now he has learned a lot, and he just waits to buy two boxes of bees next year before the rape blossoms bloom.

More than 3000 big chicks from the old insulation room have been transferred to the newly built chicken coop. Chen Guo counted the time, and just a few days after cleaning and disinfection, a new batch of chicks also arrived.

This time there were six thousand and six chicks.

Fortunately, Zhou Lu was able to come back to help last weekend, otherwise he really couldn't handle it alone.

The number of chicks has doubled, and the work to be done has also doubled. It took most of the day to transfer the chicks to a warm and pleasant insulation room. They added food and water. The two worked from evening to late night .

"Ah! I'm so exhausted... Sure enough, doubling the amount is still too much. If I knew it would cost five thousand, it would be more or less." After leaving the warm room, Chen Guo moved her shoulders and complained.

The pain in Zhou Lu's eyes flashed, and he stretched out his hand to pinch him, and said, "There are so many chickens, and it's tiring to make vaccines. Don't be alone. I'll be with you on the weekend."

"Okay!" Zhou Lu took the initiative to invite Ying, and Chen Guo naturally agreed.

After resting for a while, the two couldn't stand the bombing of mosquitoes and set off home.

Chen Guo walked and said, "Now there are more than 6000 chickens in one batch. Zhang Haoyu probably can't digest them all. We have to find new sales outlets."

Having said that, he was not particularly worried. His chicken was of good quality and delicious, and there were many restaurants and hotels in Hening County, so it must not be difficult to sell it.

Zhou Lu remembered one thing, he said: "Our fans are also quite envious of these chickens, and people always ask if they can be sold online."

Chen Guo shook her head: "Live chickens can't be delivered by express delivery. If they are killed and frozen, they are easy to spoil on the way. Even if they don't taste bad, they won't taste as good as fresh ones. How can they be sold?"

He sighed again: "Oh, it's a pity that we have so many fans who can't come to the village. If we can really sell it online, the sales will definitely be good."

Zhou Lu answered casually: "After all, there are restrictions on express delivery, and the same is true for other Sannong accounts. The poultry at home is only processed before being sold online, such as cured chicken and bacon, sausages and so on."

"Processing..." Chen Guo repeated Zhou Lv's words, but an idea slowly came to her mind.

If he can make the chicken into packaged deli food such as lo mei or roast chicken, is it still not possible to sell it online?
