Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

"What!!"

"You have so much strength and you still want to hit me?"

Lin Heng smiled disdainfully, stopped it with one hand, took it by the horns and led him out of the sheepfold to the scale.

He is strong enough to restrain a half-sized calf weighing two to three hundred kilograms, and a sheep weighing seventy kilograms has no chance of jumping in front of him.

However, he made things difficult for others during the weighing. This guy bleated and refused to stand on the scale. In the end, I had no choice but to put it in a basket and coax it with grass before weighing it.

"This one is big enough. It already weighs eighty-two pounds." After weighing the weight, Lin's father said in shock.

"Indeed, he is a good breeding ram." Lin Heng nodded.

This guy looks relatively straight and strong, and now he has defeated other rams to become the leader.

Lin Yue also nodded and said: "This male black goat is considered big if it can grow to 120 pounds. It is indeed possible to grow to 82 pounds in a year."

When people at the site said that the Longdong black goat could grow 200 kilograms, it was definitely an exaggeration. It is difficult for ordinary male black goats to achieve this, and it usually ranges from 120 kilograms to 50 kilograms at a time.

The second mother's black goat is smaller. A goat that weighs eighty kilograms is considered good, and a goat that weighs one hundred kilograms is considered a big goat.

"Leave this one aside and tie it first. Let's find two good ones and stir up the rest." Lin Heng tied the sheep and said.

This guy didn't know that he had escaped disaster because of his appearance. He grabbed the rye grass next to him and ate it deliciously.

"There are 22 male black goats. If you leave three of them, you will get 19." Father Lin nodded and said.

I originally bought 52 black goats, 30 females and 22 males.

Then they selected two strong and well-proportioned animals with no defects, weighing 72 pounds and 70 pounds respectively.

There was originally one that weighed 75 pounds, but it was a bit ugly and had a crooked nose, so I didn't choose it.

After selecting the three rams, they cleaned a pen next to the cattle and sprinkled lime to disinfect it.

Then we started fanning the goats, and the first one was the 75-pound crooked-nosed goat.

Father Lin and Lin Yue each held down the sheep's legs and pinned it down on the bench.

Lin Heng washed his hands and held the egg, squeezed the egg to the lowest position, disinfected it with high-strength alcohol, cut a two-centimeter opening with a knife, and squeezed the egg out hard.

Then cut off the spermatic cord connecting the balls, and apply anti-inflammatory powder to complete the sterilization of the male sheep.

"Okay!" Lin Heng threw two large sheep eggs into the basin and said with a smile. The whole process only took less than half a minute.

"So fast!"

"Your skills are comparable to those of a professional fanboy!"

Both of them were shocked. They thought that Lin Heng would suffer a big disaster when he fucked a sheep for the first time. They also specially got a big sheep, which would have better resistance.

As a result, Lin Heng's surgery was completed before they could even react.

"Haha, this is really not difficult." Lin Heng said with a smile.

"Son, your skills are amazing!" Father Lin gave a thumbs up, looked at the sheep's wounds, carried it in and placed it in the newly disinfected pen.

After confirming that Lin Heng's skills were fine, he speeded up.

After two minutes of catching the sheep and thirty seconds of catching the eggs, the goats' shrill screams could be heard throughout Hongfeng Mountain.

The three rams that were selected at the beginning were so frightened that they did not dare to eat grass.

Within half an hour, all 19 ram eggs were gone. A pair of sheep eggs weighed one to two taels, and the 19 pairs weighed more than three kilograms. The small basin they brought was a bit too big to hold.

After these sheep were castrated, when Lin Heng drove the three remaining rams back, none of them dared to resist.

Then they randomly selected three ewes and weighed them. They all weighed about fifty kilograms.

"Son, most of these ewes have started to go into heat. Should we lock them together?"

Father Lin looked at Lin Heng and asked.

"One by one, we will put the rams in the pen to make sure they all get pregnant." Lin Heng looked at his father and said.

In fact, artificial insemination is the best method of reproduction, and the effect is better than natural mating, but it is difficult to do it without the equipment now.

"Okay, let's put one in first and take a look." Father Lin nodded. There are still many empty pens here. Put the three rams separately, and then put the ewes in separately.

I don't know if it was because I was scared or something else, but for a while, I didn't see any movement.

Lin Heng went to take a look at the cows. The largest one was the male cow, which was one and a half years old. It was now an adult and estimated to weigh more than 400 kilograms.

The smallest heifer was born last year, weighing only 150 pounds now.

The ten Qinchuan cattle are all one year old. The male weighs 400 kilograms, and the female weighs about 300 kilograms and shows signs of estrus.

But they cannot breed yet. The breeding of cattle is slower than that of sheep. Bulls can breed at two years old, and cows can breed after one and a half years.

He plans to wait until the second half of the year to find a bull to breed these cows.

After Lin Heng watched the cows, the three rams finally got up and mated two or three times.

After mating, the sheep were moved to another place, and three more ewes were put there and left to stay.

Breeding two or three rams a day is enough. If there are too many rams, it will be too much and the effect will not be good.

In addition to these sheep, there were three female white goats, which had also grown up.

He planned to keep and eat these three goats he passed by. If he didn't want to breed them, he would just keep one kind of black goat.

"Let's go back and cook the barbecue. The sun is very warm today."

After finishing it, Lin Heng held the mutton egg and said with a smile.

"Haha, this is enough for a delicious meal." Father Lin also laughed.

The three of them were talking when a shout came from outside the railing beside the mountain stream in the distance: "Lin Heng, are you fanning the sheep?"

Lin Yue took a look and said, "Tian Baishun, this old man seems to have just returned from hunting."

"It seems like I was hit. I got something in my hand." Father Lin looked over and said.

Lin Heng looked at Tian Baishun and replied: "Yes, what are you going to do?"

"I'll trade this wild goose with you for some sheep eggs." Tian Baishun came closer and said.

Hearing this, Father Lin couldn't help but laugh in a low voice: "This old boy still eats goat eggs at such an old age."

Lin Heng and the two also laughed. Lin Heng gave the sheep eggs to his eldest brother and father to take down first, and then walked over to talk to Old Man Tian.

"Where did you catch the wild goose?" Lin Heng asked, looking at the wild goose in Old Man Tian's hand.

"Over there in Sanchagou, if you're lucky, you can hit it. It weighs more than four pounds. If you want to hit it, you probably have no hope. They all flew away." Tian Baishun raised it and said.

"That's not bad, but we plan to bake the lamb eggs ourselves, so we can't exchange them with you. If you want to eat them, just come over and get a skewer yourself."

Lin Heng looked at him and said that he also wanted to hunt wild geese, but he often couldn't see them.

Upon hearing this, Tian Baishun immediately said: "Are you preparing a barbecue? Then I will bring the geese over and let me try your craftsmanship for free."

"No need for Dayan, you can come and eat." Lin Heng said.

"It's okay. I can't eat it myself, so I'll leave it here for you to eat."

Tian Baishun waved his hand and went back to take a detour. There were thorns blocking the fence, making it impossible to get in.

"It looks like these wild roses are alive and ready for grafting."

After Old Man Gao left, Lin Heng looked at the wild roses planted last winter under his feet and said to himself.

The rose stems were already full of spores, and he planned to cut some branches of the vine rose for grafting when he was free in a few days.

After washing his hands by the stream, Lin Heng turned around and went back. Xiulan and her mother had already lit the charcoal fire for the barbecue, and the mutton skewers had been cut and threaded.

"How do you make these goat eggs? We haven't done it before?" Mother Lin looked at Lin Heng and asked.

"This is easy, I'll do it. Who of you will open the door for Tian Baishun? This old man insists on eating roasted lamb eggs, and he also wants to bring beaten geese over to roast them." Lin Heng looked at everyone and said, you, the thick-skinned person opposite, There's really nothing you can do against him.

"I'll go." Father Lin said.

Lin Heng took the mutton eggs and cut them into pieces, then cut them into pieces and put them in a basin to marinate with rice wine, onion and ginger water. Then he picked them up and skewered them and grilled them on the grill.

Lin Heng first cut ten mutton eggs and baked them to see how they tasted before deciding whether to take other tests.

"Oh, this sheep egg is quite big. The sheep raised last year have grown so big." Tian Baishun looked at the sheep egg and said in surprise.

"It's okay." Lin Heng smiled, turned over the stick, and brushed on a little oil and soy sauce from time to time.

"This is a good thing. It's more replenishing than wild geese." Tian Baishun laughed, and then said, "I went to skin the wild geese and put them here to roast."

Without giving Lin Heng and others a chance to stop him, he went into the house, found a basin, poured boiling water and started scalding the geese.

After a while, Lin Heng's mutton skewers and mutton eggs were grilled first. The rich aroma of barbecue surrounded everyone. The originally soft mutton eggs were also grilled until they were angular and fragrant.

"It's time to eat." Lin Heng shouted and sprinkled the mutton skewers with barbecue ingredients and distributed them to everyone. Xiulan and the others were not interested in the mutton eggs and started eating the mutton skewers.

At this time, there was no synthetic meat technology in China, so the authentic mutton would still taste good even if it was grilled casually. Everyone ate it with gusto and praised it repeatedly.

“This mutton egg tastes better baked than fried!”

Tian Baishun took a bite and gave a thumbs up. Compared with his own skills, Lin Heng's barbecue is definitely a delicacy.

"It's not bad!" Father Lin also nodded.

Lin Yue also said: "I thought it would be very irritating, but it doesn't have an irritating smell and the taste is pretty good."

"Then I'll bake it a little more." Lin Heng said with a smile. He was afraid it wouldn't taste good, so he baked it very long, until the outer skin was browned and hard.

"I want to eat too." Lin Tao came over and said while watching the adults eat.

"Dad, I want it too!" Xiaoxia also said coquettishly.

"I'll cut some for each of you. Let's eat if you like."

Lin Heng did not refuse. Once cooked, this food is just like normal meat. There is nothing that cannot be eaten.

"Mom, and Xiulan, do you want to try it?" Lin Heng finished dividing the food for the children and looked at his mother and daughter-in-law.

"don't want."

Both of them shook their heads. If old man Tian was not here, they would still want to try it, but with him here, they don't want to try it, because after eating this guy, he will definitely tell dirty jokes.

"You can bake some konjac and potato slices." Xiulan said.

Tian Baishun brought the wild goose over and said, "There is also this wild goose. I have prepared it, cut it up and roasted it together."

"Then let's make a honey goose. Brother, go and light the oven and get some charcoal in it." Lin Heng took over and said. Not far away, there is an earthen oven on the ground that they used to roast whole lamb. It can be used to roast wild geese without any problem.

"Okay." Lin Yue nodded and went to make a fire.

He first chopped off the goose's neck, removed the lymph nodes from the neck, and grilled them separately on skewers.

Dayan's body was massaged with onion and ginger water and then marinated in seasonings. When the charcoal was ignited, he hung it on a wire and put it in for roasting.

The wild geese were roasting, and everyone on their side came together to take the exam and eat together. The drinks they drank were warmed rice wine and sugar water.

At twelve o'clock, Lin Wei came over from school and ran over with her mother.

"Wow, it smells so good, I'm so hungry!" His loud voice came before anyone could reach him.

"Here, I have grilled mutton skewers here." Lin Yue handed a few skewers of mutton skewers to his son.

Lin Heng looked at his nephew and smiled: "There are also goat eggs here, do you want to eat them?"

"Why don't you dare? I dare." Lin Wei took a bunch and ate it, and screamed, "It's delicious, even better than mutton."

Liu Juan came over and Mother Lin handed her the mutton. After she ate it, she took the initiative to get a bunch of mutton eggs and tasted them. After eating, she smiled at Xiulan and said, "It's really delicious. Xiulan, please try it." ”

"It's useless for you women to eat it, and there's no place to replenish it." Old Man Tian chuckled.

Liu Juan was not a woman like Xiulan who would blush when being teased. She had a bit of Sichuan and Chongqing spirit in her body. She looked at Tian Baishun and replied: "Then you will be more useless after eating. It is useless to supplement it at an old age." Yes, even if it is useful, you have no place to use it."

"you!"

Tian Baishun was speechless for a moment. He didn't have anything to say, but this was Lin Heng's house and there were children. If there were other women in the village, he would have to take her back to the house.

"It's okay Xiulan, you eat what you eat. This old man is joking. I'll deal with him and kick him out." After finishing talking to Tian Baishun, Liu Juan said again.

"I really don't want it, I'm full." Xiulan shook her head and refused.

Lin Heng stood up and said, "I'm going to get the wild goose. It should be almost done. It's been more than an hour."

After walking over and taking the wild goose out, Lin Heng was surprised at first: "This one was baked well today, it's such a beautiful color."

"With your skills, you can become a chef!"

Tian Baishun was shocked when he saw the wild goose that Lin Heng brought over and said that he would never be able to get such a burgundy stain by himself.

"Everyone, come and eat." Lin Heng smiled and took out a knife to cut up the wild goose and distribute it to everyone. This is good food. Everyone except the baby should eat some.

"It's so crispy, spicy and fragrant!" Xiulan said in surprise, this roasted goose meat is indeed extraordinary.

"Second father, your skills are ten thousand times better than my mother's!" Lin Wei said bluntly.

Xiaoxia raised her chin proudly and said proudly, "My dad is the most powerful!"

The goose meat is already delicious, but Lin Heng made it even more fragrant after roasting it, which was recognized by everyone.

"It tastes better after eating the skin and dipping it in the sauce. You guys have a try." Father Lin said while dipping it in the garlic spicy sauce.

"It's really good." Lin Yue also tried it and praised it.

Everyone was really different when they ate it, and soon they figured out how to dip it in fermented bean curd and jam.

Under the warm sunshine, the green ryegrass on Hongfeng Mountain swayed in circles. At the foot of the hillside, a group of people were eating barbecue and laughing.

After eating, everyone sat comfortably on the chairs, enjoying the breeze and warm sunshine, reminiscing about the delicious food and the happy feeling of fullness. Several children happily played games on the cement floor.
