Chapter 264 (1/2)
The incubation time of eggs and duck eggs is not the same at all, that is to say, when Kang eggs are laid, it is impossible to lay a few duck eggs by the way. When eggs hatch, it's several days before duck eggs hatch!
When hatching eggs and catching chickens, the temperature will surely fluctuate and be affected. And that duck egg is just the key time of hatching. What else is there?
If we specially incubate duck eggs on a Kang, after all, we have no experience, and we don't know whether the temperature is the same as the demand for Kang eggs. If it's not the same, all the eggs on the Kang will be destroyed. Let alone making money. All the capital has been put into the water. How dare we try?
Moreover, it takes 23 days to incubate eggs and then Kang. It takes 27 days to hatch duck eggs with hens. I don't know which day or time is the best time to start Kang. If I can't grasp it, one Kang egg is also a waste word!
Lian Fangzhou, seeing that Lao wangtou had said ”no”, then lost the following words. After thinking about it, he was clear. He smiled at Lao wangtou and said, ”I'll give you money to buy one or two hundred duck eggs. Can you give it a try? If I can do it, maybe I will find some duck seedlings on your Kang! ”
As soon as Lao Wang's eyes lit up, he nodded with joy and said with a smile: ”this is OK! I can try! But it's time to wait! ”
”That's natural. Let's finish the chicken bed first!” Lian Fangzhou laughs.
So lianfangzhou left five liang of silver, two Liang for duck eggs, and three Liang for chicken seedlings.
The old king was very happy. He took the silver and gave thanks. He and his son sent lianfangzhou out.
On the way, lianze couldn't help asking: ”do you want to buy duck seedlings? Where can I keep it after buying it? There are not many little rivers beside our village! ”
Even Jane couldn't help being strange.
Lian Fangzhou said with a smile, ”how much can we raise in that small ditch beside our village? Even if you want to raise it, you have to raise 20 or 30 for sister-in-law Li! I'm preparing ahead of time. If I don't raise it this year, I may raise it tomorrow! ”
”Next year!” Lian Ze opened his eyes and could hardly believe it, but sighed: ”elder sister, you have a long-term plan!”
Even Fang Zhou and a Jian couldn't help laughing. A Jian said, ”your sister must have a plan in mind. I think it's better to prepare well in advance. I won't be too busy until next year!”
Even Ze chucked at the corner of his mouth and muttered, ”anyway, brother ajin said that what my elder sister was going to do......”
He murmured a little. Even Fang Zhou and a Jian didn't hear him. They talked about something else.
Lianfangzhou would like to raise some this year, but what's the problem with the money? Now there are only 3000 Liang left. The management fee after cotton planting is not much. But later, people have to do all kinds of tools to deal with cotton. She wants to open a shop to sell cotton!
Which of these doesn't need silver? If you want to hire some good weavers, the price is not low.
Within a few days, news came that even Hai and Sun Ming had passed the county test. In April, they passed another test in the government, and they became scholars!
Becoming a scholar means that officials don't have to kneel down to salute, the family doesn't have to pay taxes, they can exempt themselves and their wives from corvee, they can also directly put forward opinions and suggestions to the magistrate about local affairs, and they can get five Dou rice subsidies in the Yamen every month.
If we go further, we will raise people, which means that we have stepped into the officialdom with one foot. If we can't go further, it's good to find a school to be a teacher!
