Chapter 111 Various Plans
After the chickens and ducks were arranged, farm work in the fields also had to be arranged. As the days passed, the goslings came back and the pigpen was built.
In a blink of an eye, another twenty-five pigs were brought back and put into the clean and breathable pigpen.
The guys on the farm had never seen so many livestock before and they were all very happy. The children even said they wanted to help raise them and they were definitely going to be fat and plump.
When Zhang and Little Zhang have nothing to do, they like to hang out in the sheds of chickens, ducks and geese, and occasionally go to see the fat piglet.
With so many more livestock on the farm, the food and wine became a great pressure.
Mu Chaoge asked them to develop the mountain land, "Plant more sweet potatoes this year. If there is not enough manpower, I will transfer some people from the new farm."
The spring ploughing work must be completed.
"Don't mistreat the chickens, ducks, geese, and piglets. Feed them well."
Mu Chaoge said that if they are fed well, the meat will taste delicious later. The hens and ducks that lay eggs should also be taken good care of. "Give the eggs to Ah Hua and the others. You can boil them or fry them. Oh, there is a way to eat steamed eggs. I will teach you two later. It tastes good too."
Zhang and Little Zhang quickly agreed, "Don't worry, Miss Third, we will take good care of them!"
Now their task is to take care of two important things: the big kitchen and the livestock.
Nothing can go wrong.
I don't do any other miscellaneous work.
It was Mu Chaoge who came up with the idea. Everyone divided the work and cooperated with each other. Everyone took care of their own affairs. Those who should farm should farm, those who should manage the accounts should manage the accounts, and those who should raise livestock should raise livestock. This way, there would not be chaos and conflicts among everyone would not be likely to occur.
We are not rushing to produce tooth powder for the time being. We have to finish the spring ploughing first, and then we will start making tooth powder. The output this year will definitely increase several times.
"From now on, we won't be involved in the tooth powder business. Let the new farm handle it. I'll help you find some new ways to make money."
Mu Chaoge announced the latest decision. Zhang and Little Zhang did not hesitate at all. They immediately nodded and said with a smile, "We will do whatever the young lady says!"
There is no business that is reluctant to give up tooth powder, mainly because we understand that Miss San will not treat everyone unfairly.
And she was good enough for them.
Before she arrived last year, the farm couldn't even afford meals and everyone was hungry. They hadn't even had white rice. It was after the third young lady came that she gradually led them to live a good life, fishing, planting, and researching tooth powder, and they also made a fortune.
Everyone has saved up a few dozen taels of silver, so they feel very confident!
Therefore, when the Third Miss said that she would lead them to find other ways to make money, Zhang and Little Zhang readily agreed and absolutely believed in their young master.
Mu Chaoge also nodded with satisfaction, "Don't worry, even if you don't need to intervene in the tooth powder, I will still give you a share of the dividends. After all, you are the ones who followed me to build this business, and there are many ways to make money in the future!"
Zhang and Xiao Zhang said it was impossible when they heard it. "We didn't do anything. How can we take the third lady's dividend? It's too shameless." "Yes, yes, this dividend is incredible!"
Mu Chaoge waved his hand to signal them to be polite, "Just keep it, I never treat my own people unfairly, we are all family, so we don't have to say two things."
Mrs. Zhang and Little Mrs. Zhang were so moved that they finally nodded in agreement.
Mu Chaoge let the two of them get busy first, as taking good care of the livestock on the farm was the most important thing.
Zhang and Little Zhang were just about to leave.
Uncle Cai walked in happily, "Miss, there are people selling lambs in the next village, shall we buy some?"
He happened to meet him when he was out on business, and the farmer said that he still had more than a dozen lambs that could not be sold.
Uncle Cai thought it was a good idea, so he came back excitedly to ask the young master if he wanted it.
Mu Chaoge was pleasantly surprised when he heard this: "You have lambs? Sure, it would be best if we can buy some. But Aunt Zhang and Sister-in-law Zhang, are you two busy enough to come over? If not, I'll get a few more people to come over and help us."
Zhang and Xiao Zhang said it was no problem, "We are free!" "That's right, it's not too much trouble. We are the two of us who will take care of the livestock, and others will come to help when they are free. We can take care of it."
If they are the only ones doing the work, they will be exhausted. How many people will they be in charge of?
Mu Chaoge said that it was no problem, "Then Uncle Cai, take the silver and go buy all the lambs. Remember to ask Brother Duan to build a sheepfold."
Uncle Cai said it was no problem, "I'll go buy it right away." He smiled and hurried out.
With so many new livestock added to the farm recently, it really is looking more and more like a farm.
Zhang and Little Zhang were also overjoyed, and immediately said that they wanted to go to the back mountain to take a look and choose a good location to raise the sheep. When the sheep grow bigger, they can raise them on the mountain.
Mu Chaoge let the two of them go, and Zhang and Little Zhang left with smiles on their faces. They chatted and laughed, and said that they could make some goat milk cakes for the young lady in the future, and the extra goat milk could be given to the children.
The days pass by and I become more hopeful.
It's worth it even if it's a bit tiring.
Mu Chaoge has been very busy recently in the early spring. She is also tired and extremely nervous. Her mind is always racing, arranging various things and also managing the time well.
She couldn't delay the tooth powder business, as her uncle was going to ship out another batch of goods in mid-April, so she had to rush to ship out another batch in mid-April.
Madam Zhou brought her a bowl of soup and said, "Miss, drink some pear soup to moisten your throat. Look at you, why did you come here? You've exhausted yourself."
It's so heartbreaking.
Mu Chaoge took two sips as soon as it was brought to her. The food that Nanny Zhou and the others gave her was all suitable for eating, which was extremely thoughtful.
"Well, it's delicious. I'm not tired, Mammy. I feel at ease."
She couldn't help but smile.
Really solid.
Seeing so many more livestock on the farm makes me feel at ease.
By then there will be no shortage of meat, eggs and milk.
Completely self-sufficient.
"There is a small hill over at the new farm, connected to the hillside here. I plan to plant tea and create a small tea mountain."
"But I still feel like we don't have enough manpower right now. I'll ask Uncle Cai to accompany me to the dental shop and buy another fifty people. Then we should be able to handle the job. Otherwise, it's still a bit strenuous now."
Mu Chaoge was thinking that after planting the tea leaves, he could sell them.
"And if you want to plant, you have to plant good ones, not expensive ones. I have to ask my uncle and Uncle Qiao to keep an eye out for good tea seedlings for me."
The more Mu Chaoge thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was important. "Yes, I have to write this down. Mammy, please help me write it down as well. I'm afraid I'll forget it because there are too many things to do."
Upon hearing this, Madam Zhou shook her head and said, "Oh, little ancestor, can you just give your little head a rest for a while? Madam Zhou feels that you are too worried!"
Mu Chaoge chuckled and said, "It's a bit tiring, but I feel like the days are passing faster and I feel more at ease."
