Transmigrated as a Peasant Baby Who is Pampered by All

Chapter 246: Chapter 205: Busy Morning (Part 2)

There are plenty of various milk products in the space, but aside from pure milk and milk powder, the rest are all milk beverages with additives.

Since their family has been accustomed to all sorts of pure natural foods, some even nourished with Spiritual Spring water, going back to eating foods with additives might make everything taste bad to them.

So now Xiaomi doesn’t particularly miss all those supplies brought over from the previous world any more.

On the contrary, for the past few years, she has been cultivating and breeding various agricultural and sideline products in the space, but hasn’t really had the chance to take them out, which is quite a pity.

Moreover, there are plenty of rabbits, chickens, ducks, and geese in the space, but there are no dairy cows!

Not only that, but the various agricultural and sideline products in the space are piled up like mountains. If they were sold, they might be worth several thousand taels of silver.

After all, there is no harsh winter or scorching summer in the space; it’s always the best season for crops to grow year-round.

Unfortunately, she has no chance to sell them.

Being too young, she has no opportunity to go to the town, let alone the county.

While Xiaomi was mulling over these things, it didn’t delay her meal. After wiping her mouth, she went out with Wei Ziang to find her second sister.

The old house has completely turned into a wood storage room, chicken coop, and rabbit hutch, with each room modified by Jiang Hu.

The room originally near the rabbit hutch has had a door directly removed.

During the day, the rabbits come out on their own, and in the evening, they go home on their own. They just need to lay down some clean straw inside and close the door at night.

Additionally, the original main house is now used for raising chickens. At night, they leave quickly, and during the day, they come out. Bamboo shelves with several layers have been made to prevent the chickens from being too crowded.

Not only that, but lots of chicken coops have been placed both inside and outside in the forest where the chickens are raised, so eggs need to be collected every morning and evening.

There are fewer ducks and geese, about thirty of each, raised in the room where Liu Ze and Qixi used to live.

Moreover, the kitchen area has been paved with bluestone by Jiang Hu, and stone slabs surround it to raise and sell bamboo rats, with over fifty now available.

Xiaomi and Wei Ziang, carrying a bamboo basket each, with a bamboo basket on each wrist, are equipped for collecting eggs every day.

Not to mention, duck eggs, goose eggs, and wild chicken eggs all together add up to about two hundred a day.

With so many eggs, just one Tongfu Restaurant naturally cannot consume them all.

Uncle Liu arranges deliveries of four hundred eggs to the county every three days, while the rest are sold to the residents of the town aside from supplying the Tongfu Restaurant.

Of course, as for vegetables, the Jiang family has not expanded their planting. Although growing vegetables is profitable, grain yields are high, and their grains can fetch a high price.

So after weighing the pros and cons, they continue growing vegetables as before, basically just supplying Tongfu Restaurant and for their own consumption.

After all, growing vegetables is troublesome, being busy in the fields nearly year-round.

Growing crops is much less worry; aside from planting and harvesting, there’s little more than weeding and watering the fields each month.

When compared by these two, growing grain is more cost-effective. Besides, Xiangma Town is only so big, and too many vegetables would not be consumed and would spoil on the way to the county, which is too far.

Having the whole town buy Jiang family’s vegetables?

Jiang Hu doesn’t have such ambitions, besides, other villagers also rely on selling their vegetables for money.

When Xiaomi and Wei Ziang arrived, Xiao Xue was chopping wild grass, which was brought back by Second Aunt yesterday and was piled high in the courtyard.

The wild grass was chopped and mixed with rice bran and earthworms to feed the chickens, while the ducks, geese, and rabbits are directly fed with the grass without chopping.

Under the eaves, there is a row of wooden racks, with many bamboo baskets on top. These baskets are filled with soil, used to raise earthworms.

Fed to chickens, ducks, geese, and also to the fish in the pond.

”You’re here, just in time for me to feed the chickens. It’s easier to pick up eggs this way.”

As she spoke, Xiao Xue used a small bamboo rake the size of a palm to scoop from a bamboo basket under the eaves, then shook it a bit, letting the soil fall away, and a bunch of earthworms was scooped out.

Repeating this process several times, the earthworms were mixed into the chicken feed and stirred well.

Using a dustpan to hold the chicken feed, she poured it directly onto the ground in the chicken coop, and a large flock of chickens came running and flying over, flapping their wings.

Meanwhile, Wei Ziang and Xiaomi also entered the chicken coop from another side. Two winters ago, Jiang Hu dug up over a dozen trees from the mountains, which don’t grow tall but have plenty of branches and leaves.
