Chapter 561 Final Agreement
The captain waited until everyone had finished speaking before he began to speak.
"I listened to everyone's opinions just now, and the majority agreed with them. Those who disagreed were just worried about the money issue.
Don't worry about the money issue. We only need to buy a few of each type of poultry, so it won't cost much. Besides, Zhou Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing will help us share the cost.
When we distributed the grain before, we kept enough money in the public treasury. And everyone, don't forget, we still have so much sauerkraut waiting for people to come and collect it after it's ready. That's a lot of money, and it all went to the public treasury.
I believe in Xiaoxue's ability, and I think she has a good chance of developing it successfully."
The captain had great confidence in Liu Jingxue's pharmaceutical skills. The army even sent people to purchase the prescriptions she developed. He even made her the army's pharmaceutical consultant, with a monthly salary of 45 yuan.
The team leader paused and said, "If Xiaoxue is really successfully developed, the benefits it will bring to our production team can be imagined.
After all, even if the drug is successfully developed, we must first see its effects before promoting it. In that case, our production team must be the preferred experimental base.
Just these few years of verifying the results have been enough for our production team to make a lot of money.
Even if the higher-ups see the results of our production team, discover these medicines, and plan to promote them, we will have taken the lead and be ahead of other production teams.
Compared with the possible gains if this thing succeeds, the possible losses if it fails are nothing but a drizzle and not worth mentioning.
So Secretary Xu and I agree with Zhou Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing's proposal to raise poultry during the winter months for Xiaoxue to do research. "
As soon as the team leader finished speaking, Secretary Xu spoke up, "I discussed with the team leader that although Zhou Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing are willing to pay for the poultry chicks, our production team cannot be stingy. After all, this is our production team's business.
Then we can get more poultry chicks, divide them into two batches, and raise them in two families, but we should stipulate in advance the number of times and quantities of feeding each day. The only difference is that one family will feed the chicks the stuff developed by Xiaoxue, while the other family will not.
After a few months, it will be clear at a glance whether Xiaoxue's research has yielded any results or not, as there is a reference point."
"If the poultry that were not fed with the things Liu Zhiqing developed got sick, does that mean Liu Zhiqing didn't develop the medicine for treatment, but he still didn't feed them the medicine?" Wang Qiang questioned.
Secretary Xu thought about it and said, "Then let's use Xiaoxue's medicine for treatment.
In the past, when poultry were sick with plague, they were basically all thrown away. If the plague-stricken poultry get better after taking Xiaoxue's medicine, wouldn't it prove Xiaoxue's research results? We can't just watch them die.
But except in this case, there is no need for what Xiaoxue has researched."
"This is fine." Everyone agreed.
"The poultry are raised at my house and Secretary Xu's house respectively, which makes it convenient for us to observe them in real time.
The one in my family is used to support Xiaoxue's research, while the one in Secretary Xu's family is raised normally.
If you are interested, you can visit our two homes frequently to check on the situation.
Does anyone have any different opinions on this decision?" the captain asked.
"Captain, I have no objection."
"Captain, let's do this."
Everyone expressed their agreement.
"Don't leak this matter for now, let the villagers know. It won't be too late to tell them after there are results," Secretary Xu advised.
He was mainly worried that if the villagers knew about it, they would have too high expectations, and then in the end find out that Xiaoxue failed to develop the product, they would become resentful towards her.
If only a few of them knew about it and the villagers didn't, even if they failed, everyone present would be sensible and would not blame Xiaoxue too much.
"Secretary Xu, we know about it and we will definitely not let it out."
The team leader spoke again, "In the next period of time, everyone should go to the production teams to ask if there are any poultry chicks available.
If anyone asks, just tell them that Secretary Xu's family and I want to raise some poultry during the winter.
If someone asks about raising more than the policy allows, just say you don’t know how many will survive, so you should raise more to make up the number later.”
"Captain, we got it."
"Captain, since we are all here today, why don't we set a time for winter fishing?"
The captain thought for a moment and said, "Let's hold a meeting this afternoon to tell the villagers about winter fishing and let everyone prepare.
Let's set the hunting team's entry time for the mountain in five days."
As for Liu Jingxue, since Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao left yesterday afternoon, she plunged into the space and carefully studied the breeding manuals of various poultry given by the merchants.
The breeding manuals are very comprehensive, covering the main foods of various poultry, daily care, and various common diseases. There are even methods for preparing homemade feed.
There are also records about the prevention of plague.
After carefully studying the breeding manual, Liu Jingxue discovered that the so-called plague, which is the avian influenza familiar to everyone in later generations, is caused by the avian influenza virus and can spread among chickens, ducks, geese and birds.
But in comparison, chickens are more susceptible to infection, followed by ducks and geese.
The breeding manual states that measures to prevent plague include vaccination, keeping the breeding environment clean and hygienic, avoiding contact with pathogens, and promptly handling sick poultry.
After reading this, Liu Jingxue began to think. In this era, vaccination is out of the question. Other methods must be used.
Fortunately, the breeding manual contains many traditional remedies for preventing the plague, as well as various drug treatments after infection with the plague.
Liu Jingxue looked at the drugs for treating plague, and fortunately they were all antiviral drugs.
She remembered that before traveling through time, she specially collected some medicines, which should include antiviral medicines.
Using her mind to move medicines out of the warehouse, she successfully found several antiviral drugs that could prevent the plague.
I looked at the ingredients of these medicines and found that they were all very common herbs. The villagers of the production team went into the mountains to collect a lot of them and stored them in the health center.
Liu Jingxue planned to look through the inherited knowledge about animal medicine in her mind. If she couldn't find a better recipe, she would use the time formation to develop those antiviral drugs in the alchemy room.
After all, if we rely on those finished medicines brought from modern times, they won’t last long.
After dealing with the plagues and feed formulas for chickens, ducks and geese, Liu Jingxue began to study the breeding manuals for pigs and sheep.
The breeding manual clearly explains the homemade feed proportions, daily care, and disease prevention at various stages. However, the difficulty lies in the fact that swine fever, sheep plague, and the plagues of chickens, ducks, and geese are different and cannot be treated with the same medicine. Each has its own treatment methods.
The breeding manual lists specific medicines for swine fever and sheep plague. Unfortunately, Liu Jingxue had never thought about the possibility of plague in poultry farming, and did not stockpile these specific medicines.
After all, the poultry raised in the space drink water that is used to irrigate spiritual medicines and contains spiritual energy, and they eat food that contains spiritual energy, so it is impossible for them to get sick.
Fortunately, in addition to the specific medicines for swine fever and sheep plague, the breeding manual also lists the treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine. Although the effect is not as immediate as that of specific medicines, it has also been proven to be effective over time.
“It seems that in the next period of time, in addition to cultivation, more time should be spent on researching drugs for the prevention and treatment of various poultry diseases.
Chickens, ducks and geese are fine, they are the same species, and they need medicines for reference, but the difficulty lies in swine fever and sheep plague. "
Although the breeding manuals for various poultry have been written in sufficient detail, Liu Jingxue couldn't help but complain.
“Why do these breeding manuals only list the names of the special medicines for treating swine fever and sheep plague, but not the raw materials?
If I have these raw materials, I can experiment and see if I can make it.
So far, we can only study traditional Chinese medicines, but we don’t think we can come up with a specific medicine.”
I remembered that I hadn’t yet looked through the alchemy inheritance in my mind.
"Forget it, let's look through the inheritance of animal medicine to see if the second owner left any medicine related to animal plague."
