Celestial grabs dog food

Chapter 32

"My dad wants to buy a rabbit!"

Liu Datie and Shan Guan chased after him with a cart, and stood still behind Gou Sheng.

The man showed a bit of joy on his face, he untied the basket, and opened the lid a little to show the dog left.

Unexpectedly, there were some little bastards who hadn't grown up inside. They were starved all night, and they were all sluggish. Are you angry? After a rough count, there are actually more than [-] of them.

"...This year's harvest is not good, there are not a few buds left in all, and this group of beasts spoiled a lot, but unfortunately we didn't catch those big ones..." The man said in a rambling manner.

The area around Jiaxing City is full of large and small hills. I have never seen any large beasts, but there are a lot of pheasants and rabbits. It is not a rare thing, but it is rare to find three litters in a cornfield.

The harvest in the field is not good, this man probably went to the town with a rabbit on his back, hoping to exchange some money, but such a bastard with little meat is troublesome to peel, but no one wants to take it.

Probably Gousheng was acting a little anxious, these 23 rabbits together didn't know if there was a catty of meat, the man killed them and asked for thirty coppers.

Last time Liu Datie caught a big rabbit weighing two catties and sold it for only a dozen coppers.

"It's alive. There are more than [-] of them. If you raise them for two days, they will grow up!"

Probably because the crops in the field couldn't survive, the man killed him and refused to give up the price.

Although the rabbits in this area are not considered rare, but their size is also considered a game, and it is worth a few dollars. It is not that no one has thought about raising rabbits. This thing is easy to raise (just feed it with grass), and it is very good at giving birth, but There is no such thing as pie in the sky-rabbits do eat grass, and there is almost one litter a month, and each litter consists of a dozen or so small rabbits, but if you want it to grow well and give birth to small rabbits, you have to feed it with food, and Rabbits are not mice. They can live no matter what. If they are not fed carefully, they will have diarrhea every three days. If you raise a few more rabbits, they are prone to rabbit plague. Almost none of them will survive the death. When they are frightened, they will go crazy. The bastards were kicked to death... Some people tried several times, but none of them could really raise rabbits, and gradually no one came up with the idea of ​​raising rabbits.

Gou Sheng remembers going back to his hometown one year, because it was the Year of the Rabbit, and his hometown was auspicious. Every family bought a pair of rabbits and raised them. The pressure of life in the city was almost overwhelming. At that time, he liked to go out with the old man to hunt grass and come back. Helped feed the rabbits, and learned some precautions for feeding rabbits. Later, the old family enthusiastically sent a pair of little rabbits to take back. Unfortunately, after returning to the city for a few days, they died because of being too busy with work and neglecting to take care of them. warped...

Gou Sheng shook his head vigorously, throwing away all these inappropriate memories, "26 coins, uncle, don't talk about it, I'm afraid no one will buy these bastards who can't support them at all!"

The man gritted his teeth and agreed.

Gousheng negotiated a good price and went back to see Liu Datie.

This time the little basket was no longer fresh, and it couldn’t be sold at a price. The money from the sale, after deducting the living expenses of a few people, was not much left, and more than half of it was paid to Liu Datie.

"What are you buying these little rabbits for? Don't you know how many catties of meat you can buy for 26 coppers?" Liu Datie scolded, frowning, not intending to pay at all.

Probably because of his bad luck this year, this honest man who has always had no temper has also become irritable.

"Do you know how to raise rabbits?" Shan Guan asked.

Gou Sheng nodded.

The mountain official counted out thirteen copper coins without hesitation, "Count me in half, I will raise it with you!"

"Okay!" Gou Sheng took the copper, and with the thirteen Wen coins, plus the money he secretly hid, he could finally make up enough.

The mountain official helped to free up the two big baskets, and Gou Sheng carefully placed hay under the baskets, and moved the little rabbits into them according to their size.

Seeing Shan Guan's expressionless face as usual, Gou Sheng was moved - even his parents who raised him for so many years didn't fully trust him - knowing that the harvest in the fields this year was not good, and the baskets were empty. If you sell it for a few dollars, the life of the Shanguan family will not be easy...

A few years later, Gousheng was lying limp on the kang, and he accidentally remembered this incident—"I thought at the time, no matter what good things happen in the future, I will definitely find you as a partner first!"

The mountain official came in with a basin of hot water, wiped Gousheng's body, packed up the wooden basin and towels, and pulled the quilts for the two dolls sleeping on the other side of the kang before turning on the kang, making up his mind to The reason why I didn't say anything about it was because I didn't know that raising rabbits was troublesome and risky, and I just regarded it as a profitable door like a basket...

In this room, Liu Datie felt his heart tightening up and down, indescribably upset, and his tone was naturally bad, "Stop dawdling, hurry up!"

Gou Sheng frowned and looked at his father, then thought about it, even if Li Dahua gave birth at full term, it will only be a few days, and most of the twin sticks will not wait until full term, so that's all, so he winked at the mountain official, Holding the cart from one side to the other, they quickened their pace.

One reason is that there may still be some earning laborers in the future, and the other reason is that I really can’t let go of my family, so this time I simply didn’t go around the town to buy things, and got home overnight.

The room was quiet, and Liu Datie was obviously relieved.

Li Dahua hasn't activated it yet!

"People say that this baby is smarter if it lasts longer!" Mrs. Li said with a smile on her face.

Li Dahua nodded again and again, holding her big belly proudly.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong with Gou Sheng, he hurried to get busy.

After a gleam of light appeared in the sky, Gousheng arranged the rabbits in the firewood room. Two of the smaller ones were already hard, and the others didn’t look very good. Feed the rabbits one by one carefully after drinking water.

Following Gou Sheng's instructions, Shanguan cut the dry oat leaves into small pieces with a knife for the rabbit to eat.

Fortunately, oats are considered a plant that is more suitable for rabbits.

"It's okay now, it can be raised in the firewood house. Let's go to the mountains to find some grass seeds and bring them back, and feed them with wheat stalks... It's winter, so I guess they should be raised on the kang..." The dog left and the mountain official squatted in the firewood house At the door, I saw a few older rabbits drank water and ate two mouthfuls of leaves. Their long rabbit ears were erected vigorously, and they felt indescribably happy.

"Let me go to my house. I'll ask someone to build a kang in the main room like you, and put the rabbit in it. Don't you say that the rabbit can't be frightened!" the mountain official said in a low voice.

Gousheng has been excitedly talking about raising rabbits all morning!

"Are you sure? Don't look at the cuteness of that rabbit, but it actually smells really bad. If you use it for a rabbit, I'm afraid it won't be able to live in people!" Gou Sheng said hesitantly.

"Then it won't be able to live with people. If the rabbits are really capable of giving birth as you said, then we can build another room!" Shanguan said indifferently.

Gou Sheng nodded vigorously, "Okay!"
