Chapter 1036: The Modern Farm of the Steel Castle
The American delegation had just arrived at the Steel Fort, and Chen Yuan was going to send them to the hotel to rest first.
This was the itinerary originally planned by both parties.
But David and the others saw the Hada Town Railway Station all the way from Gedaqi Airport, and then saw the Steel Fort all the way from the train station, just what they saw and heard on the road had opened their eyes.
So at this moment, they all became a little impatient, and wanted to start visiting and inspecting the Steel Castle immediately.
Chen Yuan did not object to this.
He smiled and said, "Of course, then let's visit our Iron Castle farm first." ”
Chen Yuan said: "There are a total of four farms in our Steel Fort, one is inside the fort, two are outside the fort, and one is where our plane landed in the morning. The fort is relatively small. The one on the Gedaqi side is newly built, and it's a little bigger. ”
David and the others nodded.
However, at this time, they still have no concept of what is small and what is big.
But when the convoy arrived at the farm in the Steel Castle, David and the others couldn't help but be stunned.
"Oh my God, that's small!" The members of the American delegation screamed in their hearts.
And they are not to blame for it.
Because when their convoy stopped in front of the gate of the farm inside the Iron Castle Island.
Standing in front of them was a giant building with a length and width of 100 meters, 6 floors high, and each floor was about 6 meters high, with a total height of nearly 40 meters!
"This is your farm?" David asked, a little incredulous.
Chen Yuan nodded and smiled: "Yes." ”
He explained: "There is relatively little land on the island, so in order to save land resources, we built this three-dimensional farm, and domesticated chickens, ducks, pigs, cattle, sheep and other poultry and livestock together. The first floor here is for pigs, the second floor for cattle, the third floor for sheep, the fourth floor for ducks, the fifth floor for chickens, and the sixth floor for breeding is more miscellaneous, with bullfrogs, meat pigeons, rabbits, geese, etc. ”
"What! You even eat bullfrogs and pigeons! A member of the American delegation asked, surprised.
Obviously, he rarely comes to Huaxia and is not familiar with the situation in Huaxia.
This was more familiar to Regers, and he replied on his behalf: "Hey, hey! Jerry, there's nothing to fuss about. In Huaxia, there is a wide variety of food and drink. Bullfrogs and meat pigeons are regulars at their tables. Before the end of the world, I also tasted it when I came to Huaxia, and it tasted very good! If you have the chance, you can also try it! ”
"Really!" The man, Jerry, couldn't believe it.
"Of course!" Regers assured.
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Mr. Jerry, the living conditions in the early days of our Huaxia were not as good as those of your America. And the population is large, so I can't eat only beef and mutton like you. We eat pork, bullfrogs, pigeons, snakes, hairy crabs, and even snails. ”
"But at the same time, there is no shortage of excellent chefs with wisdom and wisdom in our Huaxia, and through continuous experimentation and improvement, my chef has invented many unique ingredients and cooking techniques. These ingredients can also be made delicious. ”
"So later, although our standard of living gradually improved, people still did not forget these delicious foods. They have all been preserved, and they have become the special food of our mansion. Enrich the food culture. ”
"I see!" Jerry nodded in admiration.
And David also said: "At this point, we should actually learn from you now!" Today's America is not what it used to be. Eating only beef and mutton is not enough. ”
"Huh." Chen Yuan smiled, and said while walking towards the farm with David and the others: "This shouldn't be a problem!" There are not many Chinese in the United States. Although they immigrated to the United States, their eating habits should still be retained. ”
Indeed, according to Chen Yuan's thoughts, this is not easy, and it is not enough to find a few Chinese to be chefs.
But the strange thing is that when they said this, the atmosphere and faces of Davy, Regers and the others seemed to change slightly.
He said, "Yes! Oh, yes! ”
At this time, Chen Yuan, who was walking in front, did not notice the slightly changed faces of David and the others behind him.
Then, David immediately asked curiously, "Then Chief Chen Yuanbao." What is the specific scale of your farm? Yes why, I didn't smell anything. Isn't it common for farms to smell? ”
Chen Yuan said with a smile: "Because in order to prevent livestock from transmitting diseases to each other, our farm is not modernized. The breeding areas on each floor are independent and segregated from each other, with a special ventilation system. And it has perfect disinfection and sterilization measures. In addition, the manure of livestock is also collected in time and used as fertilizer. So you can't smell it when you stand outside. ”
"Oh!" David couldn't help but admire a little.
Chen Yuan continued: "As for the scale of breeding of various livestock here. In the case of pigs, about 5,000 pigs, 1,500 cattle, 3,000 sheep, 80,000 chickens and ducks, and about 2,000 to 10,000 other geese, rabbits, pigeons, bullfrogs, etc. ”
"Oh God!" David sighed again: "There are so many! ”
Chen Yuan smiled and said, "Because we are here for three-dimensional farming." Within each layer, there will be additional compartments. The space was put to good use. ”
Regis asked curiously, "Then why is the scale of cattle and sheep farming so much less than that of pigs?" The size of the cow is understandable. But sheep are much smaller than pigs, right? ”
Chen Yuan said with a smile: "Because pigs can always lie on their stomachs, they can sleep in addition to eating every day, which is also conducive to gaining weight." Therefore, the place occupied by pigs is relatively small, and more can be raised. Cattle and sheep need to move every day. So in addition to building fences for them, we also need to build places for them to move. Otherwise, how could beef and mutton be better than pork! ”
"I see!" Regis is a long way to know.
With that, they had already entered the breeding grounds of the Iron Castle.
Everyone changed into special sanitary clothes in the changing room of the farm, and after some simple disinfection, they walked into the breeding area.
The first floor is a pig farm.
It was only here that everyone finally smelled some of the stench.
But it doesn't stink, it's just a little bit. What's more, the smell is much better than that of zombies.
And the surroundings are also very clean, not at all as dirty as the pig farms in the countryside in the past.
At the same time, David and the others finally saw how the people of the Iron Castle raised pigs......
