Chapter 741 Roll Up
The chicks, which are more than a month old, have shed their fetal hair and grown tails and combs. Their gender can be determined based on their external features.
Xia Qing used 180 eggs to hatch 92 chicks. Now there are 33 roosters and 36 hens, a total of 69.
The chicks now are the same size as the chicks that Xia Qing exchanged from Territory No. 7 last spring. The chickens have increased resistance after more than a month and will not be trampled to death or die of illness so easily.
But Xia Qing is still worried that accidents will not be enough to deliver the 50 chickens she promised to return to her idol last year. So, when she found another hen brooding two days ago, Xia Qing also gave it 20 eggs to let it continue to hatch chicks.
Of course, when choosing eggs, Xia Qing will still choose eggs from advanced evolved white-feathered hens. Because advanced evolved chickens have higher resistance and a higher survival rate.
When choosing hatching eggs before, Xia Qing also preferred eggs laid by white-feathered hens, but she still doesn't know which of the 69 surviving chicks are the offspring of white-feathered hens.
Since the feather color of chicks is not only related to genes, but also to light, altitude and diet. In other words, those white chicks are likely to be the offspring of white-feathered hens, but they may also be the offspring of reed chickens.
Therefore, to really confirm how many high-level evolved chickens there are in this batch of chicks, it is necessary to test their content of the two elements of 戕鐐. Those with 戕element lower than 5‰ and 鈥element higher than 5 are high-level evolved chickens.
There is no rush for this. It will not be too late to test and confirm it when she gives this batch of chicks vaccination for the last time next month. If there are three or four high-level evolved hens in this batch of chicks, she can only eat eggs laid by high-level evolved chickens in the future.
Xia Qing happily mixed the chick feed with green light leaves, wheat bran, mealworms and unpolluted spring water, and then replaced it with clean water. Seeing that the chicks were pecking normally and no one was wilting and not eating, she turned to feed the rabbits.
When she walked to the rabbit house, Xia Qing was stunned. Her rare and bred optimized rabbit was dead, lying straight in the rabbit house, and the only remaining rabbit huddled in the corner without moving.
Xia Qing was so distressed that she immediately opened the wire mesh on the rabbit house and caught both rabbits. After checking and confirming that there were no external injuries or blood-sucking parasites on the rabbits, she had a bad guess in her mind.
Xia Qing immediately took the dead rabbit to Territory No. 7. Zhang Song performed an "autopsy" on the rabbit and confirmed that the rabbit was indeed scared to death.
Who scared it to death?
It was almost certain that it was the evolved wolf that peeped into the rabbit house last night! Because when Xia Qing fed the rabbits in the evening, the two little guys were still doing well.
After Xia Qing fed the living rabbits with the medicine prescribed by Zhang Song, she sent them to Territory No. 4 and asked Zhao's mother to continue raising them. Because tonight, not only the broken waist wolf, but also the handsome giant wolf might come and scare the remaining rabbit to death.
This morning was class time, so it was Zhao Ze who came to pick up the rabbit.
Seeing the little rabbit not very energetic, Zhao Ze did not talk much with Xia Qing, and hurriedly took the little guy back to the territory and put him together with the two big rabbits.
The number of students taught by Zhao's mother has increased from one to three, and the two new students are Jiang Ying and Zhu Li.
Although Jiang Ying, who is already 19 years old, can recognize common characters, she can't write many characters, and her arithmetic ability is not good. She was only in the second grade of elementary school when the natural disaster began. After the elementary school was built in Huisan Safety Zone, she and Jiang Hu did not go to school to continue their studies, because the points earned by Jiang's mother alone could not meet the living needs of a family of three, let alone buy stationery and books for their brothers and sisters to go to school.
After Jiang Ying came to the territory, she did not make a fuss about returning to the safety zone because of the hard work. Every day, she either worked with Yue Haiying and others, or reclaimed the wasteland allocated to her.
Seeing that she was really staying, Tan Junjie asked her if she wanted to go to the No. 4 territory with Tan Qi to study. This would not only improve Jiang Ying's cultural level, but also give her ten-year-old daughter a companion.
Jiang Ying agreed without hesitation and rejected Tan Junjie's kindness to help her pay for the tuition. She paid the tuition by herself and asked Zhong Tao and Zheng Kui to buy books, paper and pens for her. She happily went to class with Tan Qi.
Seeing 19-year-old Jiang Ying go to study, Zhu Li also decided to go with them. When the natural disaster began, Zhu Li had not graduated from elementary school, so she also needed to study.
Zhu Li continued to study, not only to be able to read and count, but her goal was even greater.
Their territory was developing better and better, and the Lord Alliance was getting stronger and stronger. The Territory Alliance had grown stronger, and there must be more than just three positions, namely chairman, secretary and minister of commerce. Zhu Li had to study hard, so that when the Territory Alliance added new positions, she would have the confidence to compete with Zhao Ze, Shi Du, Tang Heng and the people from Territory No. 15.
Kuang Qingwei certainly supported his wife's decision. In addition to the necessary books, paper and pens, he also planned to buy his wife a second-hand laptop when he made money so that she could learn more knowledge at home.
In order to eliminate illiteracy, China has produced many online courses in recent years, not only for primary and secondary schools, but also various universities and professional skills courses.
After self-study, people can take unified tests and get corresponding diplomas, and can use these diplomas to compete for open positions in the safe zone.
So now that Tan Qi has left the safe zone and no longer goes to primary school, she can still take the school exams at the end of the semester. As long as she passes all the exams, she can successfully move up to a higher grade.
Zhu Li, who only has a primary school diploma and was in the first year of junior high school when the natural disaster began, plans to take the junior high school graduation exam next June, so she must study hard.
Sometimes, Zhu Li, Jiang Ying and Tan Qi would ask Mother Zhao for Chinese and math knowledge in the lord channel, and other lords would also listen carefully while working.
After knowing that Zhu Li was going to take the junior high school diploma exam, Shi's mother also asked her son Shi Du to follow her and let him take the exam too.
Hearing that the young people in the territory were starting to study, Huo Lei's sense of urgency rose again. He called his son Huo Zhun and cursed him to hurry up and study, otherwise in another year, he would be the only one in the territory who had not received it. Young people with diplomas from nine-year compulsory education!
Huo Zhun, who was required to work hard and go to Territory 3 from time to time to increase his presence, told him very sincerely, "Dad, the most important thing when joining Sister Qing's team is your diploma."
Among the core members of the team: the Alpha Wolf, the Broken-Waist Wolf, the Handsome Giant Wolf, and the Stinky Weasel, none of them have a diploma.
In the end, of course, he was scolded by his father until his ears were ringing, "The team doesn't need a diploma, and farming doesn't need a diploma. Why did Du and Zhu Li have to study and take exams at that time? Everyone else is a fucking fool, you are the only one Is this useless thing smart? Xia Qing is only two years older than you, but the way he opens his mouth and shuts up is because of this and that ingredient. If you don’t make progress, you won’t even say anything. I don’t even know how to hang out with others..."
Of course Xia Qing didn't know about the conversation between the Huo family and his son. If she heard it, she would definitely tell Huo Zhun: Although Wolf doesn't take the diploma exam, Wolf is also taking the time to study. If he were to take multiple-choice examinations on medicine and evolution with Broken Waist Wolf now, Broken Waist Wolf might score higher than him.
