Chapter 146： considerate

   After sending off Qi Haoran and Fan Zijin, Shu Wanniang had time to ask her daughter, "What did Mr. Fan mean about cooperation?"

Mu Yangling explained that Fan Zijin wanted to sell rabbits to the south, saying: "He may smoke the rabbits into jerky or make diced rabbit meat and ship them to the south. He needs a lot of rabbits, and I am responsible for the breeding. "

Shu Wanniang frowned, "A Ling, there are only so many people in our family now, how can we do this? Besides, no one has ever raised rabbits in groups, are you sure they can support them?"

"Flocks of hares are easy to feed. Don't we still have more than 60 acres of low-grade land in the east of our house? Let the hares be kept there, and I will discuss with the two of them to see if we can buy grass from the Hu people in the north. The seeds." Mu Yangling smiled, "I don't know how to grow wheat, and I don't know how to grow grass?"

Shu Wanniang's eyes widened, "Do we still need to plant grass? Don't there be fields, mountains and rivers?"

"There is, but it's not enough to eat, and we have to cut it ourselves. You also said that there are not so many people in the family. I will find someone to dig a ditch to encircle the sixty acres of land, and then surround it. Online, the rabbits can only stay in it honestly, and I try to ensure their food supply."

Xiuhong listened and hurriedly assured: "Cousin, we can also help my cousin. My sister and I can do things like mowing the grass."

Mu Yangling nodded, "Farming will be slack in another two months, and the children in the village will be idle by then. I can ask them to mow the pasture, mother, don't worry, the rabbits won't be able to feed them, and they will be taken care of by then. They are all skinned and eaten, and we are not at a loss anyway."

Shu Wanniang was stunned, "Don't you need to buy bunnies to raise rabbits?"

"Where can I buy so many bunnies? They all come from the mountains, and I have agreed with Qi Haoran that I will account for 20%, he will be 10%, and Fan Zijin will be 10%," Mu Yangling said after a pause. : "Our family has no money now. I have to ask Fan Zijin for money to buy grass seeds. He has to provide the grass seeds for the first year."

Niang Shu looked at her daughter blankly, and couldn't find any more objection, then said after a while: "Then, except for the grass seeds, this is almost a business without foundation."

"Isn't it? Otherwise, I wouldn't take the risk to raise rabbits. The most important thing is to catch the rabbits in the mountains, and the crops in the south of our house will be safe." Mu Yangling didn't have much confidence in the rabbit business, even if Fan Zijin and Qi Haoran is very confident, her main goal is still her own crops.

Anyway, she didn't want to plant the 60 acres of low-grade land, and it was deserted, so using it to grow pasture and raise rabbits would be an experiment.

Mu Yang went to bed with a healthy mind and body.

In the barracks, Fan Zijin couldn't fall asleep. This was the first big thing he did after coming to Xingzhou Mansion. He vaguely found his future development direction and value, so he paid unprecedented attention to this matter. Every step and key point is designed and must be done perfectly.

Therefore, Fan Zijin sat at his desk late at night to make plans.

And Qi Haoran next door had already made a soft cry, sleeping like a dead pig.

Mu Yangling went around the 60 acres of land the next day, squatted in the ground and worried: "Do you think I want to build a small house for the rabbits or something?"

Bowen said suspiciously: "Don't rabbits dig holes? Isn't the hole their home? Why do we need to build it?"

"That being said, but when we raise them, they are no longer hares. Build them a house or something, maybe they can get rid of this habit of digging holes everywhere?"

Xiuhong said directly: "Cousin, no one in our family has no money now."

Xiulan nodded again and again, "Grandma said that the 30 acres of inferior land in the south will be opened to grow wheat."

Mu Yangling felt pain all over his body, and said after a while: "We can't plant so many fields now, it's almost past the season for sowing."

"So grandma said it will start today," Xiuhong said: "Cousin, let's go to the south, grandma must have brought the wheat seeds there."

Mu Yangling was discouraged, "Okay, but I will only plant five acres, and I won't plant any more."

My aunt didn't want to panic, but Mu Yangling persuaded: "Auntie, you have to harvest it if you plant it. I still have the strength to keep ahead when I plant, but when I harvest, I will also support the two. If you don’t go to Xiuhong, you will be able to collect so much land by yourself? After a heavy rain, our efforts for more than half a year were wasted. I think we can only plant another five acres at most, or is it because I want to see Look at the harvest in the lower places."

"Then other places panic?"

"Don't we want to raise rabbits? When the time comes, we will plant grass, cut it and give it to the rabbits to eat. What do you think?"

Like Shu Wanniang, my aunt felt that Mu Yangling's raising rabbits was unreliable, but Mu Yangling was right.

Seeing her silence, Mu Yangling just assumed she agreed, and in order to avoid her sadness, he added, "It's true that the rice and wheat are so close to each other, but I don't want to panic if they are farther apart. "

Auntie looked up at Mu Yangling, she only reached her chest, her slightly immature face was full of seriousness, she couldn't help sighing, she was still too much for this child, after escaping from Linshan Village, because of Mu Yangling She took the initiative to take most of the risks. Although she always said that she was still a child, she subconsciously regarded her as an adult. During this period of farming, she was used as a strong laborer, but in fact she was still a child. .

When my aunt thought about her body now, she couldn't help but soften her heart. Forget it, if it's desolate, it'll be desolate. It's better than boiling the child's body.

Thinking of this, my aunt suddenly felt that it was too difficult to plant five acres, so she said, "Forget it, we'll just plant another two acres today, and let's see how the harvest of this inferior land is."

Mu Yangling blinked and asked, "Didn't you say you want to plant five acres?"

Auntie glared at her and said, "Auntie, I'm getting old and tired? Just plant it today, as much as you can."

Mu Yangling couldn’t get what he wanted, and Xiuhong and the others became happy. The children didn’t like farming. For them, farming was really hard.

Mu Yangling planted two acres of low-grade land, but Qi Haoran went to Qi Xiuyuan and grabbed twenty soldiers with hunting experience, and asked them to take turns to lead the team into the mountains to catch rabbits. no matter what.

On Fan Zijin's side, he began to count the soldiers who could not go to the battlefield and train. These people will work with him in the future.

The day Qi Haoran’s people started to enter the forest, Mu Yangling came over and mentioned the matter of forage seeds. Fan Zijin agreed to help get the seeds, but he did not agree to pay for the seeds alone, saying: “Everyone has a share in this business, the money Divided into three equal parts, no one can escape."
