Chapter 23 Daddy doesn't hope for good, Jiayi is the most distressed
There is no gate here, just a earthen gatehouse and a fence gate.
"anyone there?"
Soon a young man in his twenties came out of the house.
If Li Jiayi guessed correctly, this young man should be Bai Laoya's son.
And it should be because he is getting married that he wants to renovate the house and make furniture.
This fence gate can't keep people out at all, it can probably only keep out chickens and ducks or something.
And the gap is very large, not only can you see outside from the inside, but you can also see inside from the outside.
"Who are you looking for?" the young man asked while leaning against the fence.
"Excuse me, does Bai Laoya live here?"
"Dad, someone is looking for you." The young man shouted into the house.
"Who is it?" As the words fell, Bai Laoya came out of the house.
"Uncle, it's me." Li Jiayi waved his hand.
"Oh, it's you, little comrade." Then he said to the young man, "Open the door quickly."
"Oh!" The young man quickly opened the fence gate.
As soon as Li Jia came in, he asked, "Uncle, you haven't sold your sheep yet, right?"
"No, no, they are all in the circle! I'll show you."
I followed Bai Laoyao over to take a look, and sure enough, all four sheep were in the sheep pen.
This also made him feel relieved, knowing that it was not easy to buy a sheep in that era.
If the family was not in urgent need of money, ordinary people would never sell sheep, because sheep eat grass and give birth to lambs.
It can be said that this is an endless source of wealth. If the money is not needed, who would be willing to sell it!
"Uncle, how much do you plan to sell these four sheep for?" Li Jiayi asked.
Bai Laoyao did not raise the price, but said: "Let's calculate it according to the price in the pigeon market."
Since Bai Laoya is so straightforward, what else can Li Jiayi say?
"How about this, uncle? I'll charge you 200 kilograms for these four sheep, which is 65 cents per kilogram, for a total of 130 yuan. What do you think?"
The price of raw lamb is 6.5 cents, the same as pork, but don’t forget, this is a price that does not require a ticket.
In the Pigeon Market, mutton can be sold for 80 or 90 cents per pound. Although it is a little cheaper than pork, it is not much cheaper.
Besides, Li Jiayi was just buying breed. To him, whether it was a pig or a sheep, they were all breed.
Bai Laoyao looked at Li Jiayi and said, "Little comrade, this doesn't seem to weigh more than 200 kilograms, right?"
"About 200 kilograms."
If the difference is too big it definitely won't work, but if it's only ten or eight kilograms, it doesn't matter to him.
These ten or eight kilograms may be stored in the space and will grow out when he gets home.
Don't forget that these are four sheep, not just one. On average, each sheep weighs only about two kilograms.
"Thank you!" After holding it in for a long time, Bai Laoya finally managed to say something.
"You are very polite."
Li Jiayi pretended to take out some money from his schoolbag, and took out a hundred and thirty yuan, exactly the right amount.
Of course, after taking out the money, the schoolbag was empty.
As the saying goes, wealth should not be shown off. Although this Bai Laoya looks like an honest man, who can be sure that he will not be tempted by money?
"Please count it. If I'm correct, it's exactly one hundred and thirteen." Li Jia handed over the money and said.
"Oh! All right."
The money was not all in whole dollars. You have to know that this was the money he earned from selling fish. Basically, it was one or two dollars, and there were not many five dollars. There was only one big black ten.
Soon, Bai Laoyao counted the money and said, "Just right, not more, not less." "Yeah!"
Then Bai Laoya put the money away and went into the sheepfold to lead the sheep out.
"Comrade, this sheep is yours from now on."
Li Jiayi took the rope handed over by Bai Laoya and said, "In that case, I will leave first."
"Okay, walk slowly."
After leaving Bai Laoya's house, Li Jiayi led the sheep out of the village, but he did not walk towards the main road, but walked towards the wasteland at the east end of the village.
If you don’t know, you might think he is herding sheep for his family. You know what, he really looks like a shepherd boy.
He let the sheep eat the grass for a while, and when he saw that there was no one around, he put it into the space and then ran towards the main road.
Now we have pigs, chickens, ducks, geese, and now sheep in the space.
The only things missing from the entire breeding area are cattle, horses and donkeys.
He must get the cows and donkeys, but as for the horses, to be honest, it doesn't matter whether he has them or not.
Because horse meat is not delicious and is particularly coarse.
Even if he got a horse, he would just ride it.
Just add some corn leaves to the feed box in the sheep pen and forget about it. It will be enough for them to eat for a few days anyway.
Of course, this refers to a few days outside.
When we plant the next crop of sweet potatoes, we will have enough feed.
And the corn can be harvested soon, which is why he takes the corn leaves and feeds them to the sheep.
A week passed in the blink of an eye. During this week, Li Jiayi harvested one crop of corn and two crops of sweet potatoes, and is now planting corn again.
As for the vegetable garden, I have been planting pumpkins for some time now. This thing has a high yield!
It is also very good for making feed.
In the pigpen, there are more than 40 wild boars and domestic pigs together, more than 30 domestic pigs and only a dozen wild boars.
Although wild boars also have two females, the number of piglets they give birth to does not seem to be as many as domestic pigs.
The pigpen is not very crowded yet, but it is almost crowded. And it seems that the two sow domestic pigs and two sow wild boars are about to give birth.
So Li Jiayi decided to slaughter all the pigs except the sows and breeding pigs.
This batch of pork should be delicious, considering that he had castrated them not long after they were born.
If it were outside, Li Jiayi really wouldn't have this ability, but in space, this is no problem for him.
Moreover, these pigs are very big. You have to know that they have not grown in the space for three months, but six months.
It can be marketed in three months, not to mention six months.
Whether it is a wild boar or a domestic pig, they can grow to more than 300 kilograms and are definitely considered big fat pigs.
Thinking of slaughtering the pig, Li Jiayi hurried home from the Pigeon Market.
This week, Li Jiayi has been hanging around the pigeon market almost every day, trying to understand the market situation and see if there is anything to buy.
Kids! You have to run to get where you want to go. Look, after running all over yourself with sweat, you finally get home.
Li Aimin and Ye Xin were resting at home today because it was Sunday. Seeing him running back in sweat, Li Aimin asked, "Son, were you chased by a dog?"
"Dad, can't you just hope for something good from me?" Li Jiayi rolled his eyes at Li Aimin and said.
"Then why were you running so fast? Did you get into trouble again?"
Li Jiayi was speechless. Although he enjoyed this feeling, he couldn't always be wronged!
So he prepared to make a move.
PS: Love is always there, can you give me a monthly ticket? Thank you!
