Chapter 215 215 Pig Butcher Master Zhang

Chapter 215 215. Master Zhang, the Pig Butcher

Because of the shock of this pig butchering, Song Tan was much simpler and rougher when choosing vegetable seedlings, and she also added things like loofah and lentils.

In the eyes of the boss, she was very straightforward and a good customer, so he also suggested earnestly: "I see that your vegetable garden is not small. It's okay in spring and summer, but when it comes to autumn and winter, will you build a greenhouse? If you want to build a greenhouse, come to me, we are professional in this."

Greenhouse...

Song Tan hasn't decided yet.

It's very tiring all year round, and I plan to let my family rest in winter. However, the resistance to rest probably comes from grandparents and parents.

After all, they will never want to miss the opportunity to make money.

After returning home for a while, she has seen through the mentality of her family members to grab money, so she didn't say it for sure.

I just asked in advance: "What can be sold in the greenhouse in winter?"

"Need I say that?" The vegetable owner was beaming with joy:

"Fruits, then you can grow strawberries! The strawberry base next to our city costs thirty to fifty yuan per kilogram of strawberries during the Spring Festival. Just tell me if you can make money!"

"As for other vegetables, anything with green leaves, except cabbage, can be sold in winter."

Of course, businessmen have to praise the good things, for example, they didn't say what to do if the strawberries can't be sold or the road is closed.

But for Song Tan, the ingredients for every meal for 10 to 20 people at home, if they can't sell anything, they can just clean it up and make dishes and sauces.

At most, they won't make money, but they won't lose money anyway.

She wrote this down and decided to consider it after the busy autumn and winter.

The most urgent thing at the moment is to bring the pig butcher Master Zhang with him.

Master Zhang is 57 years old this year. In the city, he has just retired at this age and is in high spirits, but in the village, he can be said to be an old man.

He used to ride his bike to take jobs in various villages. Later, no one raised pigs anymore. He was old, so he moved to the town with his son.

Now he heard that someone was looking for him again, and the old man was very happy:

"Aren't you not allowed to raise pigs at home? Do you still raise pigs? Are you doing it secretly?"

Song Tan laughed: "No, I have reported it. It's not on the road, but in the back mountain, so it won't affect you."

Family farms can apply to raise pigs.

Master Zhang has a small satchel tied around his waist. It's really not big, about the size of a palm.

Song Tan glanced at it and Master Zhang saw it. He patted the bag proudly: "The guys who eat are all in it. They have been with me for more than 40 years."

"It's just that there has been basically no work in recent years. I feel like my hands are numb - what's the situation with your pigs?"

What can Song Tan say? Our dog stole a piglet back?

He wrote in a Spring and Autumn style: "We originally had five pigs castrated, but a little wild boar ran down from the mountain some time ago, and we kept it together, so we said we would castrate it to prevent it from fighting."

That's right, wild boars run around in the pigpen, and domestic pigs have good tempers and are docile. If they affect their appetite and prevent them from growing meat, it will be unsuitable.

But Master Zhang still felt a little sorry: "Your family is really lucky, wild boars, you can't catch them even if you go to the mountains, why don't you keep them as breeding pigs?"

Song Tan was helpless.

Why? Because Wu Lan didn't want to buy another sow.

According to her experience: "We haven't raised pigs for several years. It's risky to raise so many pigs this year. If we raise a sow and let it give birth to piglets, if something goes wrong with our family, wouldn't it be a waste of money?"

"In the first year, be conservative."

Besides, Wang Lifen and Wu Lan both think that wild boar meat is not delicious.

They are in power, so Song Tan decided to give the wild boar a knife.

Castrate it when it is young, and keep it for another year. The fishy smell will probably not be so strong at the end of the year, and it may taste better!

Ah, Fairy Tan has suffered for a long time!

Master Zhang nodded: "That's true, wild boars have good physiques, and castration will improve their tempers. Otherwise, it will be difficult to do when they grow up."

He was also very happy: "I haven't castrated a wild boar in decades."

After thinking for a while, he took out his mobile phone again: "Can I send a vibrato later?"

Song Tan: ...

It's much more fashionable than her.

But she also reminded: "Be careful not to pass the review because of the blood."

"That's okay," Master Zhang was quite casual: "I can still post it on WeChat Moments."

"By the way," Song Tan hadn't asked yet: "How much does it cost to castrate a pig here?"

Master Zhang thought for a while: "It should be twenty yuan, but this is a wild boar, I am also very rare, plus you are back home and have a car to pick you up and drop you off...Give me ten yuan."

Song Tan: ...

If she wasn't cultivating immortals, her hands would be shaking as she held the steering wheel.

Is it her wild boar and car to pick you up and drop you off that are not valuable, or are the important items of the pig not valuable?

Master Zhang didn't notice her shock, this price is the market price in the village. After all, there are only two or three people who can castrate pigs in the surrounding area, but every household used to raise pigs, and it is not a problem for him to earn three to five thousand yuan for one job.

Of course, this price has not changed for at least ten years - because there is no one in the village, and now no one raises pigs!

He is now a retired craftsman, and it doesn’t matter if he makes money or not, as long as he has it.

However, now that he has a career, Master Zhang is looking forward to it: “If you have piglets in the future, call me when they are born, and I will come to your house to castrate them!”

That’s a must!

Song Tan originally didn’t want to raise a sow to give birth, but now that her family has mentioned it, she will have to arrange it sooner or later next year.

But by then, the pig pen in the back mountain needs to be renovated.

Hmm… I wonder if Zhao Fangyuan can design a house with a chicken coop and pig pen or something?

Master Zhang was also satisfied.

But soon, he remembered another thing: “Who are you going to hire to slaughter the pig?”

Song Tan:…

It’s not that urgent. We have to wait until autumn and winter. Otherwise, if the pigs haven’t grown up yet, eating meat means eating Wulan’s money. She can’t do it!

"Master Zhang, can you also kill pigs?"

Master Zhang sighed with regret: "Oh, how can I not, I used to work with my brother - he is a professional pig killer."

"He is strong, so he held the pig down. As for me, I have steady hands, so I was responsible for that cut. In fact, I know that he saw that my child was in the hospital at that time and the money was all gone, so he deliberately took me with him to give the family some meat to eat."

"It's not okay now. He didn't pay attention to the three highs in the past two years, and he died."

While talking, he kept muttering: "This person is old, he has to control himself, eat a small bowl of rice, and can't eat more no matter how delicious it is."

"My brother is like this, he kills pigs, every household has pig-killing dishes, and he can send water before leaving. How good his life was when he was young, every meal was meat, and he grew big and fat."

"I'm getting old, but I haven't lost weight. Look, my blood pressure has risen..."

He wiped his eyes again: "Now I can see it open-mindedly, and I will never eat too much, not even a bite."

This market is my Baidu report in 2021. But the truth is, no one has been doing this for at least ten years...

So, just take a look.

I don't care what price you ask for when you go home.
