Animal husbandry is one of the important components of agriculture, and is one of the two pillars of agricultural production along with planting.
On a smaller scale, it means raising some animals.
Wang Leshan has considered this matter.
In addition to raising dogs, starlings, squirrels, bees, and fish, Wang Leshan also had ideas for those wild pheasants, but due to delays in some matters, he never picked them up and played with them properly.
This time He Yuting mentioned milk, which can be regarded as an opportunity. Since there are 15 cows, let's get some more. In addition to dairy cows, we will get some beef cattle, and we will start a serious cattle farm.
Of course, if you want to engage in breeding, land is the biggest problem, and you will definitely need to build a larger place.
It is definitely not possible to build cabins all the way to the foot of Dakang Mountain. This area will be the main location for farmhouses, resorts, and tourist areas in the future.
If you let a few cows wander around here for a while, and the old cows return home at dusk, it would be a nice scene. But putting a cattle ranch would be a disgrace to the scenery.
Dakang Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with Dakang Mountain in the middle, Liyu Mountain to the east and Jiuping Mountain to the west.
The cabin is located at the east foot of Dakang Mountain, and further east is Liyu Mountain. Since this place is not suitable, Wang Leshan thought of moving it further east, to the foot of Liyu Mountain.
Liyu Mountain is not high and can be regarded as a short hill. The short hill looks like a carp head, so it is named Liyu Mountain. The area is not large, less than one-fifth of Dakang Mountain, and part of it is blocked by Dakang Mountain. Building a cattle farm there will not have any impact on the future scenic spots.
Moreover, Liyu Mountain is a bit further away than Dakang Village. There are mostly wasteland and weeds, and there are few people there. Compared with the beautiful Dakang Mountain and the terraced Jiuping Mountain, Liyu Mountain can be regarded as a child that has fallen out of favor in Dakang Village, and few people will care about it.
"Why not just contract Liyu Mountain first!"
When Wang Leshan thought of this, his eyes lit up. If Liyu Mountain is contracted, cattle and chickens can be raised at the foot of the mountain, fruit trees can be planted on the mountain, and sheep can even be herded.
This is not a bad idea!
"The location of Liyu Mountain is a bit off the beaten track. Being off the beaten track has its own advantages. At least it is the most suitable for raising these animals... As for transportation, just build a road and everything will be solved!"
Wang Leshan went through this idea in his mind, and felt more and more that it would be very promising to use Liyu Mountain as a breeding base.
"Leshan, do you really want to build a cattle farm?"
After sending Uncle Awang away, the fat man poked Wang Leshan with his elbow and asked.
"Well, in addition to raising cattle, we also plan to raise other things. Some of the surplus things on our farm, such as plants, poles, leaves, etc., can all be used to raise animals." Wang Leshan asked: "What do you think? How about turning Liyu Mountain into a breeding base?”
Wang Leshan told Fatty Li, Hong Dehai, Wang Xiangxiang and others his thoughts.
"This is a good idea! Carp Mountain is quiet and there are few people walking around. It is the best place to raise these animals. You don't have to worry about the animals affecting people."
"In this way, we will have a place to deal with some leaves, poles, roots, etc. that cannot be dealt with in our fields. And these are all good things. If animals grow up eating these things, it is absolutely suitable!"
"Carp Mountain is full of wasteland. Some animals can be scattered on the mountain without worrying about them destroying any crops. Free-range animals are definitely better."
Several people very much agreed with Wang Leshan's idea, and you and I gave a lot of opinions. Wang Leshan went through it and added all the feasible ideas to his own, and soon formed a prototype in his mind. .
If there is such a breeding base, then the meat dishes in the farmhouse will be guaranteed in terms of ingredients in the future. It does not have to be all vegetarian dishes with good ingredients like now.
As humans who have worked hard for millions of years to climb to the top of the biological chain, how can we not eat meat
"You guys get busy first, I'll go find Uncle Dabao."
Wang Leshan left the cabin and walked towards the village committee. On the way, he happened to meet his parents who were visiting the farm. Wang Leshan chatted with them for a while and also talked about setting up a breeding farm. Talked to them. Wang Leshan's father, Wang Dacheng, had raised sheep and chickens before. Of course, Wang Leshan had to listen to his opinions in this regard.
At the same time, Wang Leshan also secretly tried to guide energy for treatment, but no matter what, he didn't get the relevant prompts, so he had to give up.
Fortunately, my mother's arm has recovered, and my father's legs are gradually improving.
"Then you go to the village chief first. I heard that Yuting bought the Awang family's cows, so we will go and have a look."
After chatting for a while, Wang Dacheng smiled and asked Wang Leshan to go and leave them alone.
Over at the village committee, Wang Dabao happened to be in the office, taking a sip of a bottle of "Ask the Blue Sky" that Wang Leshan gave him some time ago. Beier looked like he was enjoying it.
Wang Dabao is living a really good life these days. The village has successively built roads, created a garden at the entrance of the village, and rented land to increase income. This is a good thing that did not happen in previous years. Not to mention anything else, just the piece of wasteland rented to Wang Leshan has increased the village's income by 1 million. This time, the village committee's pockets have been bulging. There are many things that can be done if they are done. A lot of confidence!
No, the Double Ninth Festival is coming soon. The village has unanimously decided to spend a sum of money to give the elderly in the village a decent arrangement. They should eat and drink. Wrap another big red envelope.
Thinking of the envious looks from the village chiefs of neighboring villages when he went to the town for meetings these days, Wang Dabao felt very comfortable. In the past, he was the only one who looked at them with envy. What's more, every time there is a meeting, the mayor will say a few words to himself, which makes him feel even more proud.
I took another sip, cheered up, and listened carefully to the opinions of other comrades in the village committee in the past two days on the "Nine-Nine Double Ninth Festival Caring for the Elderly Activities". I must prepare well this time and use the money as it should. place, making the whole village lively and lively.
As for the money in the village and other ideas, not to mention that Wang Dabao has always been a good and honest person. Even if he really has any ideas, they must be kept in his stomach. He knew very well that the town was keeping a close eye on him. Moreover, all the money was related to Wang Leshan. If something really happened, with his understanding of Wang Leshan's character and Wang Leshan's current relationship, he would definitely not be able to get away with it. Therefore, since the village committee's money became abundant, Wang Dabao asked the accountant to clarify every one, five, ten and ten, and not make any mistakes!
"Uncle Dabao, are you busy?"
Wang Leshan knocked on the open door and said.
"Shanzi, come in, come in."
Seeing that it was Wang Leshan, Wang Dabao stood up quickly and said with a smile: "It's the Double Ninth Festival soon. Our village committee wants to organize a lively event for the elderly in our village. This is the proposal of the village committee. Report coming up.”
Pour a glass of water for Wang Leshan and ask him to sit down quickly.
"Really, the ninth day of September is October 21st, right? It's good to have activities. Most of the young people in our village are not here. Most of them go out to work and go to work. Most of the elderly are empty nesters. In the village You need to be more concerned and concerned." Wang Leshan said: "Uncle, if you need my help with this event, I will also contribute. If we want to run it, we will make it fun. If you have any financial difficulties, just tell me. "
"There is no problem with the funds. Your renting the land this time has increased the income of our village a lot." Wang Dabao said with a smile: "However, there is really something that requires your intervention."
Wang Leshan said: "As long as you can do something for the elderly, just say it."
"We are still discussing some of the activities here, but one thing has been decided, and that is to organize a 100th anniversary banquet for the elderly. You know many people, especially the restaurant owners, and I want to let them Please help hire a better chef so that the elderly can eat well." Wang Dabao said.
Wang Leshan agreed: "That's no problem. Leave it to me and find a good chef to take care of it."
Wang Dabao said with a smile: "Then the matter is settled. Next, Shanzi, tell me about your affairs. You must have something to do with your uncle today, right?"
Wang Leshan laughed and said, "I really don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. There is something I want to discuss with you."
