Although Zhao Shucheng thinks the chicken on the plate is delicious, he is still a little worried about food safety issues.
"Researcher Yang, there will be no problem with this chicken, right? After all, you didn't talk about parasites before."
Yang He looked at Zhao Shucheng with approval and said, "Of course there is no problem. I have noticed the issues you have considered, so he sent a batch of chickens to the Agricultural Science Institute for inspection. No pests or other harmful substances were found. Food safety is guaranteed."
As a person who is backed by the Agricultural Science Institute, Yang He must have various convenient conditions, such as testing. For example, it takes a long time for ordinary people to wait and spend a lot of money. If Yang He sends it for testing, it will be convenient to do it, and it will even cost less and be faster.
Zhao Shucheng thought of the test, and couldn't help but think of the test screen.
I only saw a researcher holding the chicken and saying, "This is the chicken that Lao Yang sent for testing. How can we test it?"
"Baizhuo, this will help you find problems more."
"It's inappropriate, it's inappropriate. Since he's asking us to test, he must be more comprehensive."
"Yes, I've sent several of them this time, so I must test them all. I think this is better. One is braised, one is burnt, one is a big plate of chicken, and one is a small chicken stewed with mushrooms. If there is no problem after eating it, it means everything is normal. How?"
"Okay, that's it."
Next, I saw a group of inspectors in white coats eating around the table. Some of them were too anxious and almost swallowed the bones. They said disgustedly: "This chicken is not good, it actually has bones."
Zhao Shucheng laughed when he thought of this scene.
When Yang He saw Zhao Shucheng laughing, he couldn't help asking: "Do you think the earthworms have successfully raised chickens? Are you very happy?"
Zhao Shucheng came to his senses and said, "Yes, since the experiment was successful, can our village start promoting breeding?"
Yang He nodded and said, "That's true. Now how many times have the earthworms reproduced, and the number can meet the needs of breeding. How many of you are planning to breed now?"
Zhao Shucheng and Ma Defu looked at each other and said, "This is not sure, but we should calculate it first according to the breeding of every household. The first time we don't need to breed on a large scale, try a small amount of breeding first. If everyone masters the technology and then expands the scale. If there are those who are willing to be in place at one time, we won't stop it, but we must keep an eye on it and let them master the technology before they can start. How about it?"
Of course, Ma Defu had no objection to this, but said: "There is no problem with this, but I need to tell Director Zhang about the specifics, after all, he is also very concerned about this issue."
"Of course there is no problem. We have a lot of chickens left. Let him taste the taste of earthworm chickens at that time."
"OK!"
Zhang Shucheng didn't expect that the earthworms would really make it. Especially after tasting the taste of the big plate chicken, he felt that the chicken tasted much better than what he usually ate. His favorite way to eat was mutton, but now it has become a big plate chicken.
"Researcher Yang, both earthworm breeding and earthworm chicken breeding have been considered as experiments, so can it be promoted?"
Although Yang He discussed it with Zhao Shucheng and Ma Defu, he was still worried that Zhang Shucheng was eager to achieve success, so he said: "I suggest that the scale should not be too large at the beginning, and choose a few households to conduct large-scale experiments. Others first master the technology of raising earthworms, and then expand the scale after mastering it."
"In this way, my students and I can watch them work, and others can also learn how to raise chickens and wait until we master the technology before starting to raise chickens. This is less risky and convenient for discovering problems in a timely manner and solving problems."
Although Zhang Shucheng wanted all Yuquanying to start breeding, he also understood that he could not eat hot tofu in a hurry, and wanted the project to be implemented safely, so he agreed with Yang He's suggestion.
Previously, Zhao Shucheng and Debao, Gawa and Shuiwang learned to raise earthworms and raise chickens, so the four families directly conducted large-scale experiments. Because the others didn't understand and were worried about encountering problems, they followed Ma Defu's advice and started with small-scale farming earthworms.
Fortunately, the feces needed for breeding earthworms are all fermented, so the taste is not that disgusting. In addition, the villagers are all farmers, so they have long been used to the taste of farm fertilizer and do not dislike it at all. Instead, they think that these are all golden lumps.
These days, Yang He and Zhao Shucheng are very busy. Not only do they need to pay attention to their own earthworm breeding, but they also need to guide other villagers how to breed and mix breeding materials to avoid them not being able to operate when they really do it themselves.
The villagers are also very good at learning, especially when they know that when raising chickens with earthworms, they are sold faster than simply grain, so that they can sell more money. Now every household does not have much money. After all, there are a few people working, and they are all men at home. Those women think that they can earn money to supplement their household income.
What's more, this year is a year of bumper harvest in Jintan Village. Perhaps God can't see that the people in Jintan Village are so poor, and there is no sandstorm for extra gratitude, and all the food is received at home. Everyone's family's food is enough for the whole family to eat. In addition, after harvesting the food, they planted potatoes in the field for a season.
Li Dayou is worthy of being a good at growing crops. The breeding pool he and Shui Wang are more refined than other people's, especially the various ingredients are made very evenly, which makes Yang He amazed.
"What's the matter? We all farm. Raising earthworms looks difficult, but it's similar to spreading fertilizers on normal times. As long as you are careful, there's no problem."
When Li Dayou heard Yang He praise him, he started to brag.
Zhao Shucheng just glanced at Li Dayou and continued to work on his own business. He was different from other people in the village. He would not stare at the earthworms and only then he would raise chickens. He would start raising chickens now. When the villagers started raising chickens, he might have started hatching chickens.
Of course, he didn't buy any incubator, so he built a simple hatchery in the west wing. As long as all the eggs at home were taken into the hatchery, he used an electric light as a greenhouse, sprayed water regularly to maintain humidity, and checked the situation frequently.
Shuihua asked curiously: "Yongfu, what are you doing?"
"Uh, hatching chickens."
"How can we hatch chicks like this? Don't we hatch chicks with hens?"
Zhao Shucheng: "It's different. If there are many chickens in our village in the future, hens will not be able to hatch so many. They can only find a way to hatch chickens with machines. Uh, he asked Professor Yang He, and he said that the temperature of the chickens hatching is about 38 degrees and 5 degrees. Uh, look at it, if you use an electric light for lighting, put a bowl of water in a box, which can almost maintain this temperature."
Although Zhao Shucheng said it simply, hatching chicks is not a simple thing. In order to make the eggs hatch the chicks, he turned on the light to preheat the eggs before entering the incubator to prevent the incubator temperature from dropping and shorten the heating time.
When he started hatching the chicks, Zhao Shucheng had never had a good sleep. He turned the eggs into a horizontal position, so that the eggs could be tilted forward and backward forty-five degrees each. He held them lightly and even moved them very steadily and slowly.
Li Shuihua sometimes dislikes Zhao Shucheng for his work, thinking that it is useless to do this, and even almost prevents Zhao Shucheng from getting on the boat.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly. With Zhao Shucheng's careful care, nineteen days after the eggs entered the incubator, chicks were pecking their shells one after another and came out of the egg shells.
Li Shuihua originally didn't believe that light bulbs could hatch chicks, but when she saw the chicks hatched, she was so excited that she didn't want to.
Li Dayou is opposite Zhao Shucheng's house. When he found out that there were many chicks in Zhao Shucheng's house, he felt very strange. After all, no one in the village is selling chicks now, and all the chickens in Zhao Shucheng's family are locked in cages, and there are no hatched chicks at all. Why are there so many chicks in their family appearing?
"Shuihua, where did these little chicks come from in your family?"
When Li Shuihua heard this, she said proudly: "The Russians hatched it themselves."
Li Dayou felt that Li Shuihua was lying to him and said unhappily: "Why are you lying to your uncle, a woman? I don't know how many chickens you have in your house?"
Li Shuihua listened to Dabing and said, "It was really hatched by the Russians. If you don't believe it, come and see. We really hatched it by ourselves. Yongfu learned the technique of hatching chicks and made an incubator by himself. He could hatch eggs without hens."
Li Dayou still didn't believe it, so he went directly into Zhao Shucheng's house and saw the egg incubator in the room. He even directly observed the scene of a chick breaking its shell, which was very strange.
"Good, you can hatch eggs without hens. Shuihua, do you think uncle can hatch eggs by himself?"
Li Shuihua thought for a while and said, "I don't know this. It's very troublesome to hatch chickens by myself. I have to turn the eggs on every two hours to make it heat evenly. In addition, the light cannot be powered off and needs to be on for a long time. Uncle, if you really want to learn, you can ask Yongfu to teach you and make an incubator for you."
When Li Dayou heard that he had to keep turning on the electric lights, he thought it was a bit unprofitable and said, "Forget it, I'd better buy a little chicken. If you use electric hatching a little chicken, the cost is much more expensive than buying a little chicken."
Li Shuihua did not persuade him about this, it all depends on his own voluntary behavior. However, she also felt that it was a bit too expensive to hatch chickens with electric lights. Then she persuaded Yongfu, if it doesn't work, it's okay to buy chickens at her own home.
After hearing Li Shuihua's words, Zhao Shucheng thought for a while and said, "Daughter-in-law, don't worry. Now I'm using this incubator to see if hens can really hatch chicks without hens. If possible, then we will set up a place to hatch chicks and hatch hundreds or even thousands of chicks in turn. This will be much lower. Maybe we won't use electric lights and just use a water heater."
“What is a water heater?”
Zhao Shucheng thought that Li Shuihua had never seen her before, so he introduced her directly. In his vision, he made an electric water heater, and then adjusted the temperature to 39℃, and directly let the water flow circulate inside the incubation room, so that the temperature can be guaranteed.
