OK.

It's a pity that it is in vain now.

Everything in the factory was running normally. When Cao Shujie saw that nothing happened, he skipped work early and went home to accompany his wife.

Mengmeng is staying in the kindergarten now, and the house feels much quieter.

Cao Jianlong came to see Cao Shujie, and he told him that the 2nd branch of the Zhongcheng Breeding Cooperative composed of four villages in Qingyun Village was buying cattle.

Like the three villages of Caojiazhuang, Taodong Village and Zhujiazhuang, the 2nd branch of the Zhongcheng Breeding Cooperative composed of four villages in Qingyun Village felt the charm of making money after sharing the money together. This time they also thought about more

Buy cows and earn more dividends next year.

But the first hurdle is right in front of us. The price of calves this year is far beyond the imagination of many people.

In October last year, Cao Shujie and others bought calves for 4,200 yuan each.

I will wait until April this year to contact those farms and think about buying calves. You can’t buy good ones for less than 5,000 yuan.

In just six or seven months, the average monthly increase was more than 100 yuan, which is still more than they bought.

If you buy less, a calf will cost more than 5,500 yuan, and calves with better breeds will cost more than 6,000 yuan.

Even Cao Shujie was surprised for a while when he heard the price. The price is really not low.

The purchase cost of each calf has increased by at least 800 yuan. In addition, the cost and price of concentrated feeds such as corn, soybeans, and pasture have increased across the board. In the next few years, the profits of raising cattle will gradually shrink.

It is a problem that has to be faced.

As for Cao Shujie personally, he is still asking others to help him continue to buy cows and breed them himself.

However, the quantity is limited and this cannot be fully realized in a short period of time.

Cao Shujie asked Cao Jianlong, how many people in Qingyun Village want to raise cattle?

In Cao Jianlong's words, there are still many people who want to raise cattle. Although the money they earn is less, it is only a little less.

However, the rise in the price of calves and the fall in the price of slaughter cattle have stopped some crazy people and allowed farmers to return to their senses.

According to the final statistics, farmers in four villages who continued to raise cattle bought a total of 3,615 cattle, spending 18.4365 million yuan, which is a huge sum of money.

This step also blocks many farmers from wanting to make a fortune.

With no other options, people in other villages turned to farming when they could no longer participate in farming, hoping to continue to increase their income by planting fruit trees, growing pasture, and growing corn.

In addition, there are now subsidized incomes for planting. Because of this, many farmers who are unwilling to take risks to participate in breeding have begun to contract large areas of land.

When there was no land to contract in their own village, they simply went to other places to contract, planting corn, pasture, and fruit trees.

The purpose is very clear. After the corn and pasture are harvested, they can be sold to Zhongcheng Breeding Cooperative.

After the fruit trees bear fruit, they can be sold to Xuemeng Food Factory.

As long as these two things don't fail, this business can continue for a long time, and there is no need to worry about too much market risk.

Whoever said people are stupid is really stupid.

…

At Cao Shujie's house, Wang Yuelan had just cooked lunch, brought the food to the dining table, and called her daughter-in-law to come down for dinner.

"Linlin, you need to rest more now. Don't be too tired." Wang Yuelan warned her.

Cheng Xiaolin nodded: "Mom, don't worry, I know what's going on."

She said: "Others are still working at this time. I am raising my baby at home every day, and there is nothing wrong with me. In fact, I need to exercise more, otherwise it will be difficult to give birth."

"Oh, being pregnant with this second child will make you suffer a lot. When he comes out, give him two slaps so that he will remember it for a long time." Wang Yuelan said with gritted teeth.

This sentence made Cheng Xiaolin laugh.

"Mom, where is my grandpa? Let my grandpa eat together." Cheng Xiaolin didn't find her grandpa when she came down.

Wang Yuelan then told her that her father-in-law Cao Zhenghu was picked up by her elder brother Cao Jianlin early in the morning and went to live with him for a while.

"Grandpa went there by himself, can he do it?" Cheng Xiaolin was a little worried.

Wang Yuelan shook her head: "Your uncle rode an electric tricycle to pick me up, don't worry."

Cao Jianlin's main consideration was that his nephew-in-law was about to give birth to a baby. By then, his brother's family would have to take care of his daughter-in-law and children, and they might not be able to take care of his old father. So he first took his old father over to get familiar with him.

Besides, the old father has been living with his nephew since he came back from Anyi City. Logically speaking, this should be the job of the two brothers. Now they took advantage of the time when the nephew's wife gave birth to the baby and took the old father over.

Just right.

"Linlin, after dinner, Shujie will come back to take you to the county hospital for examination. I have prepared everything." Wang Yuelan said to her daughter-in-law.

During this time, Wang Yuelan did not think about other things and concentrated on taking care of her daughter-in-law at home. She also prepared the things the child needed in advance.

She heated the cotton pads and diapers for the children's buttocks in advance in a large pot and then dried them in the sun. They were all full of the smell of sunshine.

There are domestic and imported milk powders. She bought four brands at once, just to see which one was more suitable for the little one. If it didn't work, she kept buying.

Cheng Xiaolin also knew what her mother-in-law was doing in private, and told her mother-in-law that there was no need to buy so much.

But Wang Yuelan didn't listen. In her own words, she wanted to be more prepared and be prepared.

"Mom, did Fangfang call you? She is about to graduate." Cheng Xiaolin mentioned this matter while eating.

Wang Yuelan muttered and said: "That damn girl called me two days ago and said that after finishing her graduation next month, she would go to the south to find a job. I asked her to find a job near home, but she had to listen to me.

, it made me so angry that my stomach hurt."

Seeing her mother-in-law looking so 'angry', Cheng Xiaolin felt helpless.

Her sister-in-law is a very individual person, and because of this, she is more insistent on her own opinions.

A few years ago, when she was still an undergraduate, she said she would go to the south to find a job. A few years later, she has not changed her mind.

Cheng Xiaolin thinks this is rare.

"Mom, it's okay. I think it's not necessarily a bad thing for Fangfang to go south and try her luck. Maybe she can find a path suitable for her own development there." Cheng Xiaolin in turn advised her mother-in-law.

After hearing this, Wang Yuelan sighed: "Linlin, I'm not against your sister going to the south to find a job. I'm worried that she will find a partner there. If she ends up there again, it will be troublesome to come back later.
