Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

“Have they plowed some before?”

Lin Heng thought for a while and asked.

"Yes, of the eight acres of wheat land, my eldest brother and dad have already plowed five acres, and they have finished plowing the remaining one acre.

The remaining two acres belong to us, so we must take care of it ourselves. "

Xiulan nodded and said.

"It's getting late now. We have to clear the land as soon as possible. We have to plant late corn, otherwise it will be too late." Xiulan added.

"Okay, you and Caiyun take your daughter to help first, and I'll go to Hongfeng Mountain to take a look first."

Lin Heng nodded and said.

"That's okay." Xiulan probably guessed what Lin Heng wanted to do, but she didn't stop him.

"Let's go, Xiongba!"

Lin Heng called out, took the slingshot, put the backpack on his back and set off first.

"Woof woof!"

Xiong Ba ran away with Lin Heng happily.

Lin Heng walked slowly and leisurely, Xiong Ba walked fast and slowly, making fun.

From time to time, he would pounce on the grass, catching a grasshopper and a lizard.

"Woof woof!"

Not long after, Xiong Ba raised a lizard and came to Lin Heng as if to offer a treasure.

"Go away, either catch a rabbit and offer it to me, or eat it yourself."

Lin Heng rubbed its dog's head.

"Woof!"

Lin Heng refused to eat, so Xiongba bit into pieces and ate them with a crunching sound.

After walking not far, he saw a man and a woman. Lin Heng saw that it was Jin Yan and his brother Jin Shui.

He was stunned for a moment. What were these two people doing here at Hongfeng Mountain?

Listening again, there is the sound of bells, and seven or eight cows appear under the road. The emotions are here to herd the cows. Jin Yan's family became a thousand-yuan household by selling cows.

"Woof woof!!"

Before he could speak, a big white dog rushed out from behind Jin Yan and the others.

This dog was extremely ferocious and came towards Xiong Ba, as if he wanted to teach Xiong Ba a lesson.

Xiong Ba saw that the big dog hadn't moved and was still following Lin Heng. He looked up at Lin Heng, as if waiting for his order.

"Jinshui, call your dog back." Lin Heng said.

Jin Shui smiled: "It's okay, my dogs are sensible, it's good to let them play for a while."

Lin Heng was speechless, but he didn't want Xiong Ba to fight.

"let's go."

After reminding Xiong Ba, Lin Heng walked forward.

"Woof!"

Unexpectedly, this big white dog even rushed into his face.

"Woof woof!!"

When Xiongba saw that it was okay, he wanted to bite my master. You have to watch the dog when biting someone.

It barked wildly and rushed forward, and the two dogs instantly struggled in the thatch.

After just a few beatings, the big white dog lay down, whining and begging for mercy. His dog's neck was already bitten by the bully.

"Lin Heng, call your dog away quickly, be careful not to bite Dabai." Jin Shui spoke at this time, for fear that his dog would be injured.

Lin Heng chuckled: "Don't worry, my lord is well-controlled."

"Okay, come back."

Lin Heng yelled, and Xiongba immediately let go of the dog's neck and came back, looking at him as if he was taking credit.

Lin Heng rubbed his dog's head and said, "I'll give you a bird to eat later."

"Dabai, go pick this thing back up."

Jin Yan, who had been silent at this time, threw out a wooden stick and said to the big white dog.

The wooden stick was thrown far away, and Dabai rushed out to pick it up.

"Lin Heng, do you think this dog of mine has the potential to be a hunting dog?" Jin Yan held the wooden stick in her hand and raised the corners of her mouth, feeling a little proud.

"Yes, of course."

Lin Heng said with a smile and walked over.

Lin Heng left, Jin Yan was a little happy, and threw the wooden stick out for the big white dog to pick up.

Xiong Ba looked at it with some disdain and let out a dog bark: "Woof woof!"

When Jin Yan and Jin Shui looked over, its front paws flew into the air, and its back paws exerted force, and it did a 360-degree backflip in the air and landed smoothly.

Jin Yan: "???"

Jin Shui: “Holy shit!!”

After glancing at the two of them, Xiong Ba shouted proudly, wagging his tail and walking away with his head held high.

The look in his eyes seemed to say, "What's the point of picking up a stick? I can still do backflips."

"You're really a sperm, aren't you?" Lin Heng looked at Xiong Ba who was walking over. This guy was already pretending to be cool.

"Ouch!!"

Xiongba raised his head, begging to be touched, and rubbed his head against Lin Heng's hand.

"Let's go."

Lin Heng is still very satisfied with Xiongba, he is smart and well-behaved.

One person and one dog soon arrived at the wheat field of Hongfeng Mountain.

Lin Heng took a look and found that these two acres of wheat land were at the bottom of Hongfeng Mountain.

Below the ground is the end of the village road, and further to the west is a path only fifty centimeters wide.

Under the road is other people's land, extending to the Shiban River.

"It looks like it can be built into a fish pond." Lin Heng nodded and said.

This piece of land is on a slope, but the angle of inclination is not large, only about ten degrees.

The entire land is about 15 meters wide and 80 meters long.

Just dig out the soil inside and fill it outside, and it will be leveled easily.

There is a creek just to the west, right next to the land, and it is very convenient to get water.

"Dividing it into two or four fish ponds is perfect, but the cost is too high, and we don't have enough money now."

Lin Heng said to himself that even without cement, it would take ten grown men more than 20 days and a month to dig out the fish pond.

Although it was stated that shrimp farming had only started at the beginning of the year and it would not be a problem to plant another corn harvest this year, but after thinking about it carefully, Lin Heng thought it would be better to dig out the pond as soon as possible.

If you improve the water quality first, it will be very convenient for you to raise shrimps or fish next year.

At this time, chemical fertilizers were not yet popular in rural areas. Even if high-quality corn seeds developed by the state were used, the yield per acre would be difficult to reach 400 kilograms. In addition, the land here is barren, and two acres of land could only produce 700 kilograms of corn.

A pound of corn costs eight cents, and seven hundred pounds is only fifty or sixty yuan.

"We have decided to start digging this year and what kind of crops we will plant. Even if we raise a carp, we can sell it for several thousand yuan a year."

After making up his mind, Lin Heng went back immediately. He was going to discuss it with his wife.

"Woof!"

Xiongba barked and looked at the green-bearded Diaozi in the distance with his dog eyes, indicating that he wanted to eat.

"You guys, you can't catch a rabbit and eat it yourself." Lin Heng was speechless.

"Woof woof~~"

Xiongba screamed in dissatisfaction and spread it on the ground, as if to say that every time I catch a rabbit, I can eat one of its internal organs.

Lin Heng wanted to give it a kick, but he decided not to. After all, it was his loyal dog. He picked up the slingshot and fired a pellet. The green-bearded Diaozi who was picking up wheat in the field was in bad luck.

"Ouch~~"

Xiongba stood up, ran over and picked up the green-bearded Diaozi, and came to Lin Heng with his head and tail wagging.

"Let's go, I'll cook it for you when I go back tonight." Lin Heng patted his dog's head.

Xiong Ba opened his mouth and his ears stood up happily, biting Lin Heng's hand into his mouth and playing with it.

Lin Heng didn't care if he licked his hands, it was quite comfortable. He would play with the dog's mouth from time to time and throw a stick out for Xiong Ba to pick it up.

As soon as they reached the entrance of the village, Lin Hai ran over from a distance, hugged Lin Heng into his arms, and said ecstatically: "Cousin, your kindness to me is like recreating your parents. Whatever you ask me to do in the future, I will do it." Whatever you do, I will listen to you."

Lin Heng pushed him away and scolded with a smile: "You kid, don't get too happy too early. We are still far from being successful in the strategy."

Lin Hai smiled like an aunt: "Cousin, you are absolutely right. Tian Yan is much better than Jin Yan. Not only is she beautiful, she is also well-educated and knowledgeable. She looks so cute when she is angry when she loses in chess!!"

This kid has completely fallen in love with Tian Yan.

"Cousin, I did what you said and it worked. Tian Yan wants to discuss with me every day now, and I can see her every day.

Moreover, I have been reading Romance of the Three Kingdoms overnight for the past two days. It is really interesting. I will be able to discuss it with her in two days. You are really my good brother. Should I confess my feelings next? "

Lin Heng grabbed Lin Heng's hand, shaking it excitedly, and his words were a little incoherent.

Lin Heng shook his hand away and punched him: "If you continue to be so insensitive, I'll let the fucking dog out."

"Also, you are too anxious. The confession is the successful charge. Isn't it the beginning? Do you understand?

If your confession is rejected, you will never be able to see her again, and then you will still be chasing after her. "

Lin Heng punched him again.

"That's it, I understand, I will definitely hold back."

Lin Hai nodded fiercely and asked with a smile: "Cousin, do you think I will always be like this? When can I confess my love? I really want to turn her into my wife."

"Don't be anxious. Young and artistic women like her like romance. If you rush too hard, you will definitely fail. Once the relationship is stable, you can accompany her to see the scenery, buy stationery for the students, etc. This way. If you maintain it for a year and a half, you can disappear. "

Lin Heng patted Lin Hai on the shoulder and said.

"Ah, are you missing?" Lin Hai was puzzled.

"Of course, you have to make money and work hard to succeed. How can you marry a wife if you don't have money?"

Lin Heng glanced at him and continued: "You can raise cattle or chickens, in short, start a business and work hard to make money.

If you look for Tian Yan less often, she will take the initiative to look for you and ask you why you don't look for her anymore.

At this time, you can say that in order to become rich, you can be worthy of the woman you love. She will be absolutely moved, and you will almost succeed. "

This kind of routine is still very effective in this era. After all, women in this era are very different from those in the later Internet era.

In the Internet age of the 21st century, if you are poor but work hard, she will leave you wisely and not cause you any trouble.

In this era, if you are poor but work hard, she will work hard and grow with you.

In fact, Lin Heng's countermeasures can only be considered average. The gangster who deceived Tian Yan in his previous life was more of a beast. When he was ready, he would ask people out to play, get him drunk and cook the rice.

Girls in this era take chastity very seriously. If someone takes advantage of you, they will most likely follow you.

Especially since the two parties already have a good impression of each other, and if they accidentally have a relationship, it will almost be a 100% success.

But this behavior was too beastly, and Lin Heng didn't want to give Lin Hai such an idea.

"What you said is great, cousin. I really have to work hard, and I can't let Tian Yan suffer with me." Lin Hai nodded, thinking that Lin Heng's idea was great. No wonder he was able to catch up with Xiulan's sister-in-law.

"Okay, come to my house and get some books. There's a historical book you can read, and there's also a romance book you can take a good look at."

Lin Heng patted his shoulder and led him home.

"By the way, cousin, people in the village are talking about how you bought mulberry and yellow mulberry at a high price recently. My parents are also talking about it. They think you are too rash."

Lin Hai said again on the way.

"Well, I have my own ideas. It's normal for them not to understand. I won't be able to explain it to you for a while."

Lin Heng shook his head and said.

"Cousin, if you need help, come to me. As long as I can help, I will never say no." Lin Hai patted his chest and said.

"I'll look for you when I need it." Lin Heng said with a smile.

When he got home, he found the book and gave it to Lin Hai. Lin Heng didn't let him play. He wanted to talk to Xiulan about something.

When Lin Heng came to the field, Lin's father and his elder brother had almost plowed the land here, leaving less than an acre.

His eldest nephew Lin Linwei and a group of younger brothers were playing with Xiaoxia on the edge of the field, Xiulan and the others were breaking bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest, and his little lamb was grazing beside the bamboo forest.

"Second Dad, my slingshot skills have improved recently. You can teach me again."

Seeing Lin Heng, Lin Wei pestered him again.

"You will take the exam soon. If you pass the final exam, I will take you hunting in the mountains and teach you well." Lin Heng touched Lin Heng's round head and said.

It's July 9th on the Gregorian calendar now, and they should be on vacation for the exam next week.

"Second father, are you telling the truth?" Lin Wei's eyes widened.

"Really, if your parents don't let you go, I'll tell you personally." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"Okay, then what score do I need to pass the test?" Lin Wei asked again. He was afraid that Lin Heng's requirements were too high and he would not be able to meet them.

"What's your usual score?" Lin Heng looked at him and asked.

"More than fifty in Chinese, more than sixty in mathematics, and more than forty in ideological and moral character." Lin Wei replied.

"If you pass the ideological and moral test, and work hard to pass 70 in Chinese and Mathematics, I will take you to the mountains." Lin Heng smiled and stretched out his hand to pull the hook.

He didn't say much, because that would directly make the eldest nephew despair.

"Okay, pull the hook and hang yourself. It won't change for a hundred years!!" Lin Wei stretched out his hand and pulled the hook. He was very motivated and felt that he still had hope.

"Take good care of your sister." Lin Heng said and walked towards the bamboo forest.

"Second father, don't worry, my sister will never be hurt."

In order to please his second father, the eldest nephew was very considerate to Xiaoxia.

"Lin Heng, do you want to try plowing?"

Not far away, Lin Yue asked with a smile. When he was a child, he and Lin Heng often competed to plow the fields. Driving oxen to plow the fields was very fun and fulfilling.

"I'll be here in a moment. I'll go talk to Xiulan first." Lin Heng said with a smile. His hands were indeed itchy. He hadn't driven cattle to plow the fields for many years.

In the bamboo garden, Mother Lin, Liu Juan, and Xiulan were breaking bamboo shoots. During this time, golden bamboo shoots were sprouting, and they were all chubby and beautiful.

Mother Lin and the other three glanced at Lin Heng and continued chatting.

"Xiulan, let me discuss something with you." Lin Heng came over and helped break the bamboo shoots and said.

"What's the matter?" Xiulan looked up at him.

Lin Heng looked at Xiulan and expressed his thoughts: "I will first dig the two acres of wheat land into a pond to raise fish and shrimp, and I will not plant corn.

Anyway, growing corn for one season is not worth much. I might as well earn more by hunting for a month. And I raise fish and shrimp, with two acres of pond, it’s very easy to earn one to two thousand a year.”

Xiulan was not surprised to hear this. Lin Heng had already told her about this idea.

"Have you ever heard that a rich family has a lot of money, including hair? Have you ever calculated how much food is needed to raise fish and shrimp? Have you ever calculated how much you will lose if you accidentally die?"

Before Xiulan could speak, Mother Lin spoke. She finally understood that Lin Heng couldn't take any time off. If he wasn't running around outside, he would be busy at home.

"Yes, raising fish and shrimp requires a lot of skills. If you haven't done it before, you will definitely lose money at the beginning. I heard that one family in town lost so much money that they almost couldn't afford to eat."

Liu Juan also said that she felt that Lin Heng was too arrogant. He wanted to do this and that after making some money from hunting. I'm afraid the money he made from hunting wouldn't be enough for him to spend.

I don’t know how much I will have to pay for the thousand kilograms of mulberry harvested just now. Now I have to build a fish pond again. What she couldn't understand was that Xiulan didn't stop her. Could it be that both the couple were crazy?

"I've done all this calculations, and I've also learned about fish farming. I use living water to raise fish, directly connect the stream water to the fish pond, turn it around and then go out, and the fish won't die."

Lin Heng explained.

"Are you going to start digging now?" Xiulan looked at Lin Heng and said, "It's not enough to hire people to dig fish ponds. You just harvested Phellinus huang."

"Let's start digging at the beginning of August in the Gregorian calendar. I'm going to call dad and the others to go hunting together in the mountains soon." Lin Heng looked at his wife and said.

"Then you can dig it. As long as Xiaoxia and I have food to eat, I will accompany you if you want to do it." Xiulan spread her hands and said, she had already seen that her husband's fire of making money was burning and would never be extinguished.

The mulberry trees have been collected, so digging a fish pond is nothing. I can only accompany him to raise the fish. Fortunately, she had lived in Lushui County before and knew how to raise fish, so she didn't have a blind eye.

Lin Heng was very happy with his wife's support. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I will not only let you and Xiaoxia have food to eat, but also eat delicacies from the mountains and the sea!"

"My good daughter-in-law, can't you see how big and round this cake is?" Mother Lin shook her head, not knowing what to say.

"Mom, this is not a cake. I will ensure that you will have delicacies to eat and live in a big house in the future." Lin Heng added.

"Well, it's not enough to draw cakes for my wife. I've also started to draw cakes for your mother."

Mother Lin glanced at him and sighed: "Actually, it's okay to build a fish pond. At least it's more reliable than harvesting mulberry leaves. Why don't you just dig a fish pond?"

She could also see that Lin Heng would not stop until he started struggling, but at least it was much better than hanging around outside all day long shouting about making money.

"How much money is there for hunting? Don't worry, I'm sure the price of Phellinus linata will increase. It will definitely increase in the next month or two." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"I hope what you saw is accurate." Mother Lin shook her head. She didn't understand anyway. She was just worried that her son would lose the hard-earned money.

Liu Juan didn't say anything. She thought it was no wonder Xiulan could get together with Lin Heng. Both of them had the potential to be crazy.

After chatting with his wife and mother for a while, Lin Heng ran over to find his father.

Ten thousand a day is too difficult, I can’t hold on anymore.

The monthly subscription has exceeded 300, and I owe an additional 2,000 words, but I really can’t write it. 10,000 words is already too much.
