Living like a salted fish in the end times

Chapter 197

"Okay, I'll toast Zhang Dong."

Mayor Liu was very satisfied.

In the past few days, he specially arranged for people to investigate the prospects of meat rat breeding, and the overall situation is still good.

Generally speaking, mice can reproduce all year round, and they can give birth to cubs when they grow up to about two months old, and the gestation period is about 21 days.

Six to eight litters can be born every year, and five to ten pups can be born in one litter. In theory, as long as the conditions are right, one female rat can breed thousands of rats in one year, and the reproduction speed is amazing.

Optimistically, it only takes one winter as a buffer to rapidly expand the number of rats from a few hundred to millions.

Zhang Hao took a sip of his wine, and tentatively said:

"Mayor Liu, I have an unfeeling request from my side, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

"Zhang Dong, if you have something to say, you might as well speak it out, you don't have to be polite to us." Liu Changsheng smiled and waved his hand.

Zhang Hao put down his chopsticks calmly.

Just when everyone was lost, a young man suddenly asked, "Mr. Zhang, can we feed rats with poop? After all, there are rats everywhere in the sewers, and they all live by eating garbage. Don't they all live well?"

Dean Chen's brain turned quickly, and he immediately calculated his own gains.

"Too deceiving!"

"Calm down, both of you." Zhang Hao quickly comforted him, "After all, my feed processing factory is located in HZ City. Now that food is in short supply, it is naturally impossible for them to watch so much feed flow out."

"Monopoly is definitely impossible, but a conservative estimate is that our meat rat farms can produce at least one billion meat rats, and each meat rat has about taels of meat, adding up to million catties of meat."

Liu Changsheng gritted his teeth and cursed.

"It would be great if we could keep million catties."

Zhang Hao shook his head: "Mayor Liu, I have already tested it out. Six achievements are their final bottom line, and there is no possibility of bargaining."

"After my efforts, Mayor Chen, on behalf of Huicheng officials, promised not to intervene in the operation of the feed mill. In other words, except for the farm under my name, all feed will not be sold to the outside world."

Zhang Hao picked up the napkin and wiped his mouth, and then explained: "As the saying goes, if you are willing to give up, you will get something if you give up. Since Huicheng wants to take away % of the production capacity, of course it's not that they don't pay anything. They must give us a promise." .”

"What? Eighty percent? Too greedy..."

Dean Chen immediately echoed, "It's indeed a bit too domineering. Both Huicheng and Feicheng are the capitals of a state, and no one is superior or inferior."

"But half is too much?"

Zhang Hao shook his head helplessly.

Liu Changsheng couldn't help sighing.

The expressions of the others remained unchanged, it seemed that they had passed their qi ahead of time.

Liu Changsheng almost suspected that he had heard wrong.

Zhang Hao thought for a while and suggested.

Liu Changsheng frowned suddenly, and the duck in his beak was about to fly away, which was not a good omen.

"Mayor Liu, it's useless even if I'm from Feicheng. Feicheng doesn't rely on the sea, so those stinky seafood can't be brought in." Zhang Hao shrugged.

Liu Changsheng nodded in satisfaction.

Liu Changsheng said indignantly and unfairly.

Liu Changsheng couldn't help being shocked: "So, we can monopolize meat rat breeding?"

"Well, I have no other choice. Yesterday, Mayor He of Huicheng heard about the farm from somewhere, and the other party made a request, wanting half of the production capacity."

If it wasn't for the other party's strong request, he wouldn't want to build any breeding farms in Feicheng at all, and the transportation cost alone would be a considerable expense.

Liu Changsheng was slightly taken aback, and immediately asked:
"Zhang Dong, what do you say?"

Zhang Hao didn't stop being polite, and said bluntly:
"About the farm, I wonder if we can share some of the shares?"

"In this way, Feicheng has a 8000% share, and multiplying million by is million catties."

If it wasn't for Feicheng's request, he never thought about setting up a farm from the beginning to the end. He can make a lot of money by relying on earthworm feed, so why bother?
And take risks.

"That's right, it's disgusting to do so, but isn't it impossible?"

"My opinion is that it's not necessary. Instead of using poop to raise mice, it's better to use it to raise earthworms. Earthworms are known as ecosystem engineers and are not easy to spread viruses."

Zhang Hao knew that the other party had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Mayor Liu, I mean, can some of the production capacity of the farm be released?"

After all, electricity prices are not cheap now.

Zhang Hao reminded with a smile: "Hehe, 8000 million catties of meat is already a lot, which is equivalent to 30 big fat pigs. To be honest, it is almost impossible to raise so many pigs based on the current conditions."

There are about 100 million infants and young children in Feicheng. If they are divided according to the head, each person can share catties of rat meat, which is already very impressive.

"Mayor Liu, don't rush to get angry. If this matter is changed from another perspective, it is not necessarily a bad thing." Zhang Hao quickly persuaded.

"Delusion!" Liu Changsheng was furious, "Why? They just want to take half of the production capacity without doing anything. Do you really think we are vegetarians?"

Being caught by someone, he had to compromise.

"% is indeed too much, %... % is actually reasonable."

"Mayor Liu, be happy with your contentment, 8000 million catties of meat is really a lot."

"What promise?"

Liu Changsheng said disapprovingly.

Zhang Hao immediately gave a wry smile: "Originally they wanted %, but my lips are almost worn out, so I cut the share to % after all."

Zhang Hao persuaded again.

"Mr. Zhang, the farm is your sole proprietorship. We have no objection to whom you want to distribute it to."

"Why let it go?"

Liu Changsheng sighed, and finally nodded his head: "Forget it, % is %. It's better than nothing. Why isn't Zhang Dong from Feicheng?"

Zhang Hao spread his hands helplessly.

"It's hard. To tell the truth, I can produce 8000 to million tons of feed at most. The main reason is that the supply of raw materials is insufficient. There are various degrees of famine in many places overseas, let alone rotten fish and shrimp. There are plenty of people who eat dirt.”

The reason why the meat rat farm was built was not to make money, but to solve the food problem.

Deputy Mayor He at the same table didn't want to give in easily, so he couldn't help interjecting: "Mr. Zhang, may I ask, can your feed factory expand its production capacity?"

Liu Changsheng tried to bargain.

"Sixty percent is too much, can it be less? How about thirty percent?"

"Poop? Human feces?"

"But earthworms aren't meat after all?"

Zhang Hao shook his head: "It can't be said that, earthworms and meat rats are actually similar, they both have the characteristics of low fat and high protein, and the nutritional value is not much different.

In fact, if the output is calculated alone, raising earthworms is more cost-effective than raising meat rats, and the cost is also lower. In the future, earthworms must be put on the table. "
