    ?

    The sun rises slowly in the east, and the dawn illuminates the courtyard of Dong's house a faint red.  The sparrows under the eaves were already chirping and cheering. Dong Fang helped her father prepare breakfast, and after explaining a few words to Jun Tao, she went out.

    She has never been a person who sits and eats, and since Jun Tao is not interested in raising quails, she will not force him anymore.

    During this period of time, Dong Fang went to the animal husbandry station in the city in person, and asked a lot about quail breeding with shame.  After learning from the painful experience, Dong Fang decided to take a trip to Wenzhou by herself.

    The city of Wenzhou is located on the coast and is close to the mountains. The local people have active brains and started the business of exchanging chicken feathers for sugar early on.  Quail is such a fresh thing, it is not surprising that it opened the market first in Vancouver.

    Dong Fang observed the local vegetable market for a long time, talked with the vendors, and found that the sales volume of quail was very considerable.  She didn't hesitate anymore, and even paid for the travel expenses home, and exchanged all of them for more than a dozen boxes of quail.

    After rushing and rushing, stopping and going, Dong Fang finally returned home with the pain of her old leg disease.  Having accepted the lesson of the previous failure, this time, Dong Fang got up early every morning to observe the living habits of the quail.

    Later, in order to improve the sanitary conditions, she dismantled the original cages for fine-bred chickens, and transformed her bookshelves into cages for quails with wires.

    On the top of the cage, she specially placed a piece of gauze to prevent the quail from hitting its head.  The manure tray below is made of plastic sheets, and a narrow sloping path is specially reserved beside it, which is convenient for cleaning and handling, and ensures the hygienic conditions of the quails.

    Knowing how to raise quail is not enough, Dong Fang has to study the formula of quail feed like taking care of a child.  After repeated experiments, she found that, in addition to cornmeal, wheat bran, cabbage and radish, some bone meal, fish meal, etc. can also be added, and the growth momentum of quail is obviously much healthier.

    When it was time to lay eggs, Dong Fang managed to bring a 60-watt light bulb over to brighten the quail cages to increase the egg production rate of the quails.  After the quail actually laid eggs, the real dawn finally ushered in.

    This time, Dong Fang personally picked up the quail eggs and went to set up a stall outside the vegetable market in the county.  As a rare college student in this county, Dong Fang had already become a local celebrity because of her resignation and going overseas.

    Many people recognized Dong Fang at first glance. They thought that after the last setback, Dong Fang should have given up.  No one expected that she would reappear in the eyes of the public carrying quail eggs.

    "Hey, these quail eggs are so small, can I eat them? I can't fill my stomach with a few stuffed ones. Why don't I just buy eggs?" A passing aunt looked around for a while in front of Dong Fang's booth, and finally couldn't help it.  muttered.

    Dong Fang smiled: "Auntie, don't look at these quail eggs, which are small in size and have high nutritional value. There are elderly people, pregnant women, and children at home. They are all worth buying. If you don't believe me, you can read the news in the newspaper. Foreign friends  When visiting our country, people give quail as a gift as a bird that lays 'golden eggs'."

    Auntie hesitated for a while: "Golden eggs? The price must be very expensive, right? The meat in this house may not be eaten for a meal, how can you afford such a good thing"

    "I just came out to set up a stall here, so the price must be fair. It's only five cents a piece. You can buy it back and use it to make soup or boil it at home. If you think it tastes good, come back to patronize." Dong Fang greeted warmly:  "Bought for the first time, I will give you two extra eggs."

    Ordinary people, if they talk about nutritional value, it may not be attractive to buy.  But buying a 'golden egg' at the price of five cents sounds like a good deal.  As the saying goes, you can¡¯t lose money if you buy it, and you can¡¯t be fooled when you buy it. It¡¯s okay to try it.

    The first batch of quail eggs sold out in just one morning.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
