Chapter 56 The production team has started raising pigs
After the pigpen was built, the production team selected two breeding specialists from the members, and the task of raising pigs was handed over to them.
At this age, raising pigs is not easy, it is a hard work.
The two pig raising specialists first learned from the educated youth how to raise pigs scientifically for a day.
For example, how to boil pig feed, how to take care of pigs, and bathe more often to keep the pigs dry and warm...
After a while of theory, the pig raising specialist was shocked, "Be good~ raising pigs is more troublesome than raising children."
When the educated youth heard this, they smiled and said, "This pig is not well taken care of, and pigs are prone to illness. If one gets sick, it is easy to spread to other pigs."
The pig farming specialist nodded quickly and said that he remembered that the pig should still take good care of it, otherwise it would be difficult for the pig to get sick.
A few days later, the production team finally bought back several sows and fattening pigs.
In late summer and early autumn, it is already past when buying piglets, so I can only buy sows to raise them.
When spring begins, the sow gives birth to a cub and there will be piglets.
Pigs shaking their noses, shaking their curly pig tails and squeezed into the pig cage, and were pulled back by the donkey cart of the production team.
At that time, Yun Xiaotang was just getting off work and standing on the side of the road, he saw a donkey cart carrying a pig cage passing by her.
The dust raised by the donkey's hooves is mixed with the smell of the pig's body.
Yun Xiaotang couldn't help but choke and coughed a few times.
Zhao Tianer pulled her, she withdrew her gaze at the donkey cart and went home with her brother.
Zhao Xueer, who had already returned home, was stunned and thought about the matter while adding firewood to the earthen stove. She had just seen the pigs.
I am afraid that every member’s family can raise pigs when they are about to wait for the coming year.
However, pigs raised by members cannot be slaughtered privately, so they can only sell the pigs to the commune for money and meat tickets.
However, she knew that in the future, someone would make money from raising pigs and become a "ten thousand-yuan household", which would happen many years later.
At that time, she also saw related reports in the newspaper.
At that time, although rural areas allowed individuals to raise pigs.
However, not every family can raise so many pigs, it would be nice to raise two pigs at home.
Thinking of this, she woke up.
Let’s put pig raising aside for the time being.

The team raised pigs, and the members looked at the door of the pigpen in a strange way.
I watched the educated youth and the breeder demonstrate how to feed pigs with practical actions.
The members onlookers whispered, "The people in this city are just a matter of ruthlessness, and there are so many ways to feed a pig."
This was heard by the cheerful production team leader, and immediately glanced at the broken member.
The member hurriedly covered his mouth and said that she would not talk more.
At this point, the production team's pig farm was opened.
Every time the members passing by the pigpen, they can hear the sound of the pig's "roaring" food. Just listening, they feel that the pig is raised healthy and lively.
......
After the pig farm was started, the canal project, which had been suspended for more than two years in the village, was about to start again.
As summer passes, there is no need to worry that the weather is too hot and the members can't stand it.
This season is a good time to dig a canal.
So, under the leadership of the educated youth, the canal project began again.
The production team selected some strong laborers and joined the engineering construction.
The remaining old and weak members still went to the ground to work, weed and fertilized with the women.
Every day at noon, the family members of the digging canal members carry baskets to deliver meals.
The members of the digging canal all had gray faces, but happily held the bowl and sat directly on the ground to pick up the rice.
After eating, I put the bowl into the bamboo basket and waited for my wife to collect it for a while.
Everyone is trying to dig the canal before planting in the spring of the following year, so that members will no longer have to work hard to fetch water by the river and then flood the paddy fields.
This year, Yushu Village has been changing dramatically.
During this period, Zhao Xueer was not idle either.
Since eating elm bark noodles last year, she has peeled a lot of elm bark to dry this year.
The bark of elm trees in autumn grows better than in summer, and she almost peeled off every elm tree in the village.
The entire yard was filled with elm bark.
She wanted to grind the elm bark into noodles and take it to the town for sale.
There are indicators for how much refined flour every household in the city eats in a year, and the staple food they usually eat is also corn flour.
If cornmeal wants to make noodles and dumplings, it needs elm bark noodles.
In this way, the cornmeal becomes sticky.
Zhao Xueer thought that this elm bark noodles should be sold, but the price would be very cheap.
But no matter how cheap it is, it is still rich.
After a few days of busy life, she grindled out about twenty pounds of elm bark noodles, kept some of them herself, and carried all the rest to the town.
I arrived at the yard with a familiarity. After the code, Zhao Xueer entered the door.
"Oh, girl, I haven't seen you for some time."
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Wu Qiang's hearty laughter.
Zhao Xueer glanced at him and took out the elm bark noodles.
"Uncle Wu, this is the elm bark surface."
Wu Qiang came over, weighed it, opened the bag, and touched the texture of the elm bark.
I smiled in my heart and saw that the elm bark was polished delicately by this girl.
"Five cents per pound, I'll ask Xiao Li to weigh how much does it have."
Zhao Xueer nodded, the price was as expected by her.
In the end, she made a dollar for selling elm bark noodles.
After coming out of the yard, she turned around and went to the stationery store to buy pens and paper for her younger brother and sister.
The Taihe Stationery Store looks so grand. As soon as you walk into several tall counters, paper, pen, and ink are all placed in different categories.
When Zhao Xueer saw that a pen with the Yongsheng brand costs five yuan.
However, there are other miscellaneous pens that only cost 50 cents.
Before the younger brother and sister could use a pen, she finally bought ten pencils, one pencil cost two cents.
I also bought a few erasers and four exercise books.
Just spent all this money.
The clerk of this stationery store had a good attitude and carefully used kraft paper to hand her the stationery bag he bought with Zhao Xueer.
Zhao Xueer took it, thanked her and left the stationery store.
When she passed by the supply and marketing cooperative, she saw a big-character poster sticking outside the supply and marketing cooperative. She didn't care at first, but she heard someone stop and look at the big-character poster and discuss.
"What do you read about this word? What factory is recruiting workers?"
Zhao Xueer immediately stopped and approached the big-character poster.
The big-character poster with red background clearly reads "Mutung Town Clothing Factory No. 2 recruits female workers."
These words alone made her very happy.
She thought of Aunt Dou instantly and hurriedly continued to look down on the specific recruitment information.
It says that interested female workers can register and then take the recruitment exam. After passing the exam, they must first be an intern in the factory. If they perform well, they may become a formal worker.
