Chapter 1097: Feeding the Wild Boar
The recipe of wild boar is very extensive, the food that people can eat, wild boars can basically eat, and the food that people can't eat, wild boars can also eat, after all, wild boars are much stronger than people, and they will not get sick if they eat dirty and rotten food, and people who eat unclean food will definitely get sick, and even poison and die.
Ordinary people breed wild boars, in order to pursue higher economic benefits, must be fed a lot of feed to wild boars, so that wild boars will grow fast and fat, it seems that they can be sold for more price, but in this way, the quality of wild boars is not guaranteed, meat quality must decline a lot, after the first fool, the next time will not buy again.
And if it is fed for several generations, the meat quality of wild boar will become similar to that of domestic pigs, and after dozens of generations, wild boars will really become domestic pigs.
There is a big gap between the meat of domestic pigs and the meat of wild boars, wild boar meat is more delicious and more delicious, which is also the fundamental reason why many people like to eat wild meat.
However, if you want to develop the taste of wild boar, it is not an easy thing, you need to change the original feeding mode, the original captivity to free-range, so that the quality of pork can be greatly improved, and it can also be sold at a higher price, but domestic pigs have been domesticated for thousands of years, and it is not easy to obtain good quality pork by changing the way of breeding, or it is better to breed wild boar directly.
But the reproductive ability of wild boars is much weaker than domestic pigs, a domestic pig, a litter can produce about ten, and a wild boar is normal five or six like, the reproductive capacity is doubled, and only the reproductive capacity is high, in order to better meet the needs of the market, if the reproductive capacity is too weak, the number will not be supplied.
In later generations, someone came up with a good way, that is, crossbreeding, using wild boars and domestic pigs for crossbreeding, male wild boars and female pigs for crossbreeding, the effect is still very good, so, not only when producing, you can get more than a dozen piglets at one time, and the meat quality of the piglets will be very similar to wild boars, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
However, this is a bit risky, and it is also a technical job, in addition, in the eyes of many diners, the hybrid boar is not purely wild, but I am afraid that the price will not go up.
Therefore, Ang Lee simply didn't do this, and just directly raised purebred wild boars with peace of mind.
In order to ensure the breed of wild boar, most of the space in the entire valley is open to wild boars, they can go to forage wherever they want, it is best to eat more wild food, and fight more when they are fine, bump into trees or something, so that it is better.
In addition, in order to make up for the lack of food, some food will be fed occasionally, after all, the space of the valley is not small, but it is not very large, the amount of food is very limited, relying on wild food alone, I am afraid that it will be difficult to feed a large number of wild boars, and even, it will greatly reduce the fertility willingness of wild boars, thus disrupting Li An's plan.
People always like to give birth the poorer, but wild boars are not, in nature, there are many animals that will choose to reproduce independently, when food is scarce, many animals will not give birth, because even if they give birth, they can't raise children, and only when the food is sufficient, animals will have a very strong desire to procreate.
Therefore, in order to allow these wild boars to breed more small wild boars, Li An will definitely not let them go hungry, and will often let people feed food, but will not let these wild boars eat too much, otherwise, these wild boars will lose their wildness and become lazy domestic pigs, so the meat quality will not be very good.
In general, most of the food fed is wild fruits and small animals, or pure natural sweet potato vines or something, in short, junk food like pastries is rarely fed, so as not to eat these wild boars out of trouble, however, there is no problem with occasionally feeding a little, just take it for fun.
"Come on, bring more sweet potato vines."
Seeing that several emperors and grandsons were addicted to feeding, and there were only a few pieces of pastry, Li Ang asked people to bring sweet potato vines specially for feeding wild boars, so that the emperors and grandsons could feed enough.
In fact, now that it is winter, the sweet potato vines have dried up, and there are no leaves, but there are still a lot of small sweet potatoes attached to the vines, which are the kind of inferior goods that cannot be sold at a cheap price, and they are the most suitable for feeding wild boars.
Wild boars are also very fond of eating this food, and every time they feed sweet potato vines, wild boars are happy to scramble.
In order to make it easier for the emperors and grandchildren to feed, the sweet potato vines are cut into small pieces, each one is not very large, and it can be fed more easily.
"Li Shilang, have you seen enough of these?"
Li An looked at the three boxes of sweet potato vines, nodded and said, "Enough, enough." ”
"Will wild boars eat this sweet potato vine?"
"Try it and you'll find out."
Several emperors and grandsons said, respectively, picked up the sweet potato vine, fed to the wild boar, and the wild boar is also very interested in the past to fight, and, the fight is quite strong, screaming and fighting with each other, when eating, it is even more wolf-gobbling, without regard to the feelings of their companions, it seems that whoever grabs it is who's, and if you can't grab others, you can only consider yourself unlucky.
This point is also the difference between animals and people, people will be humble and polite, when eating, they can be polite to each other, and will not compete with each other for food, and many animals once they see the food, the wildness will be stimulated, all the feelings of companionship will disappear in an instant, and the blood flow for fighting for food is a common thing.
Competing for food is the instinct of many animals, when there is no food, as companions, animals can huddle together in the sun, it seems very harmonious and warm, but once the food appears, these animals that were still together in harmony will immediately show their fangs and compete with each other for limited food, sometimes even if the food is very sufficient, they will still fight brainlessly, until they completely fill their stomachs.
Animals will have such an instinct, and the living environment must have a lot to do with it, after the cruel nature, food is a relatively scarce resource in many cases, want to fill the stomach, especially to eat delicious food, is a very difficult thing, in order to prevent the food from being snatched up by peers, many times have to fight, slowly form a habit.
Even in human society, for many beggars who have eaten the last meal but not the next meal, when they encounter good wine and good food, they will also fight for it, and after grabbing the food, there is no need to mention the appearance of eating, absolutely gobbling up, and there is no big difference from eating a beast.
And many people who eat humbly and politely are people who are not short of food, naturally there is no need to fight, and there is no need to be in a hurry to eat, and the appearance of eating is naturally very elegant, so that a person who can only eat one meal in three days can learn elegant eating methods, which is too embarrassing.
"Look, a beast is a beast, just for a sweet potato vine, it actually started."
"That's because we haven't fed enough, and this king naturally has a way to make them stop fighting."
"Yes! Really don't fight. ”
"As long as every wild boar can have sweet potato vines to eat, they naturally don't have to fight, and they don't have time to fight, they are all busy eating?"
"This seems to be a reason to govern the country! As long as all the people can have enough to eat, naturally no one will rise up to rebel, and the country and the people will be safe. ”
"Yes! Oh, yes! Feeding wild boars can see the truth of governing the country, and it seems that more wild boars will be fed in the future. ”
"Look, there's another group of wild boars, it looks like there are quite a few, and what about the little piglets?"
Several emperors and grandsons shouted loudly, but a group of little piglets really ran in the distance, and a big wild boar guarding the cubs followed.
However, perhaps for fear of being harmed, the boar and a group of small piglets all stopped and stood still, as if observing the large male boars snatching food in front of them.
"Look at these little piglets, how cute they are! The female wild boar is afraid that the male wild boar will hurt them, so they all stop and dare not come, the little piglets have nothing, they have milk to eat, but the female wild boar is the period when they need to breastfeed, if the stomach is not full, the milk will not be enough, and they will not be able to feed this group of cute little piglets. ”
Li An said.
The milk of the sow does not come out of thin air, it is also transformed by the body after the sow has eaten the food, if there is no sufficient nutritious food, the female wild boar can save her life is good, there is no milk at all, and once the female wild boar has no milk, a group of small wild boars will not be able to eat, then they will be starved to death.
Therefore, for the sake of the reproduction speed of the wild boar herd in the valley, Li An naturally will not let the female wild boar go hungry, and will specially let people find a way to feed the female wild boar more every day to ensure that every female wild boar with cubs can eat well.
"This is easy to do, this king used to feed it."
Li Yu took a basket of sweet potato vines, took more than a dozen steps forward, and then violently pushed the sweet potato vines to the feet of the female wild boar, which frightened the female wild boar back a few steps.
After realizing that this was edible food, the female boar snorted gratefully, and then stepped forward and took a big bite of it.
"For you, for you."
Li Yu threw the whole frame of sweet potato vines to the female wild boar, so that the female wild boar could eat enough.
However, such a big movement naturally attracted the attention of this group of male wild boars not far away, and when they saw such a big ball of delicious food falling, they naturally wanted to go over and scramble.
"Quick, stop them with sweet potato vines."
Seeing this, Li An knew that only food could be used at this moment to prevent these male wild boars from approaching the female wild boar, so as to ensure that the female wild boar could eat with peace of mind, and also to ensure that the little piglet would not be hurt by the male wild boar, after all, the size of the little piglet is too small, once the male wild boar passes, it is inevitable to compete for the sweet potato vine, under the chaos of the scene, it is inevitable to trample the little piglet to death and step on it, so that the female wild boar must not fight with the male wild boar, if these wild boars are dead, Li An's plan will be in vain.
When several emperors and grandsons heard this, they threw down the remaining two baskets of sweet potato vines without thinking about it, because they were so anxious that they even threw the baskets down together, and smashed two wild boars, so that these wild boars stopped.
After the basket hit the wild boar, a large number of sweet potato vines inside fell out, draped in wild boars, and some fell on the ground, which made the wild boars very excited, and immediately began to scramble, and no longer care about the female wild boar and the baby wild boar in the distance, after all, these delicious foods are in front of you, first eat these sweet potato vines, and then go to snatch the sweet potato vines of the female wild boar is the best policy.
All wild boars eat very fast, to survive in the wild, the speed of eating must be fast enough, because, only by eating faster than others, can they survive better, if the speed of eating is too elegant, it will definitely die ugly.
"It's over, these male wild boars are eating too fast, and it won't be long before they go and grab food from the female wild boars."
"Li Shilang, are there still sweet potato vines?"
"Come on, go get some sweet potato vines, and let a few emperors and grandsons feed them."
Everyone said babblingly.
In order to prevent the male wild boar from harassing the female wild boar to eat, and in order to prevent the male wild boar from trampling the baby wild boar to death, everyone thought of continuing to increase the food, as long as the food interception is used, these male wild boars will not have the energy to harass the female wild boar in the distance, and if these male wild boars are all fed, they will find a quiet and comfortable place to sleep, and will never go to the idea of beating the female wild boar again.
The servants moved quickly, and before the male wild boar ate all the sweet potato vines, they sent enough sweet potato vines again, and there were many large and broken sweet potatoes, that is, when the farmers dug the sweet potatoes, they accidentally spoiled the sweet potatoes, or the sweet potatoes were born deformed, and they were plagued by insects, so that these large sweet potatoes could not be sold at a very low price, and they could only be processed at a very low price, and it was perfect to feed wild boars with these low-priced sweet potatoes.
"Haha! There is such a big sweet potato, this is fun, playing wild boar, it is said that the wild boar has rough skin and thick meat, such a big sweet potato is thrown down from a high place, will it hurt the wild boar! ”
"If it hurts, you won't know if you try it."
"Come, let's hunt wild boars and see if the wild boars will hurt."
As he spoke, the emperors and grandsons took the larger sweet potatoes together, aimed at the wild boar below and threw them down.
"Whew......"
The size of these sweet potatoes is not small, and the height of everyone standing is two feet, plus the strength of the hands, how can it not hurt to hit the back of the wild boar, and the wild boar is screaming.
