Chapter 141: About the "Chicken King Competition"
Yang Cheng is preparing for the first level: the knowledge competition level.
She had memorized most of it, and all that was left was to memorize and recite it over and over again, so that she wouldn't have a sudden brain short circuit during the competition and not be able to remember anything.
The second level is the beauty chicken selection competition.
Examine the chicken from various aspects such as appearance, muscles, height, temperament, and mental state.
Yang Cheng was deeply influenced by the book "Self-cultivation of a Chicken Farmer", which gave a very detailed description of chicken farming.
According to the explanation in this book, whether it's good looks or muscles, it's actually all related to the diet of the chickens.
If chickens only eat feed or coarse grains, this single food is not good for them. Although it can speed up the production of chickens, it is not good for the chickens themselves.
First of all, if you eat the same food for a long time, even if this food tastes good, you will get tired of it after a long time, and when you get tired of it, you will be in a bad mood, and when you are in a bad mood, the muscles in your body will not be firm.
Secondly, the nutritional composition of the feed is relatively simple. The nutrients in it are intended to accelerate the growth of chickens, but they lack trace elements. Chickens lacking trace elements will become listless, their appearance will decline, their combs will not be red enough, their tails will not be curled enough, and their claws will not be white enough.
In order to solve these two problems, Yang Cheng put a lot of effort into their diet: feeding them snails and vegetable leaves.
The book says that spending a lot of money to buy expensive chicken feed nutrition packages from abroad is a waste of money.
Don’t think that everything from abroad is good. If you think it is good, a big reason is that you don’t understand the foreign chicken feed market. However, it is sold at a very high price, so you think the more expensive something is, the better it is.
In fact, it is not like that. This is a tax on your IQ, which is sold specifically to Chinese people who are a little vain. Some wealthy chicken farmers only choose expensive chicken feed for their chickens, thinking that if the chickens eat well, they will also have face.
Yang Cheng wanted to buy it before, but he had no money, so he gave up.
Now after reading this book, she realized that the chicken feed nutrition package is a garbage bag. It is better to give it to dogs than to chickens. It is okay to give it to dogs to grind their teeth.
What is the most nutritious food?
The simplest is the best.
Vegetable leaves and snails from the vegetable garden are the first choice.
The three people digging wild vegetables were responsible for feeding snails and vegetable leaves to the chickens, so Yang Cheng had nothing to worry about the chickens' appearance and muscles.
All that remains is the chicken's mental state.
How to improve the mental state of the chicken?
The book says that chickens, like humans, need entertainment. You should show them some entertainment programs from time to time. If they are happy watching them, they will be in a good mood, and if they are in a good mood, their mental state will be good.
In order to ensure that the chickens were in an absolutely full mental state before the competition, Yang Cheng spent a lot of money.
Where can I find entertainment programs?
Weren’t there a lot of wonderful performances in the entertainment show organized by the village chief some time ago?
Yang Cheng felt that the village chief was his lucky star.
If he hadn't organized this event, she wouldn't know where to find the show.
So, Yang Cheng spent a lot of money to invite the villagers who had performed that day to take turns performing for her chickens. Of course, the shows were too bad, and the show by Brother Niu could not be shown to the chickens.
Half a month before the competition, every afternoon at 5 o'clock, the chickens lined up and watched the performance attentively.
Gradually, the chickens watched more shows and their mood became extremely relaxed. Their eyes became brighter, their necks became longer, their backs became straighter, and the whole chickens were in very good condition.
Not only are their conditions better, but their aesthetic taste has also improved a lot. When they see interesting shows, such as the "macho shows" in pig farms and fish farms, they will flap their wings and make "cooing" sounds in their mouths.
If they see a not-so-good show, such as a stand-up comedy, they will pretend not to understand and peck at the mud on the ground to pass the time.
While the chickens were watching the show, Uncle Yimao and Xingxing were not idle either. They were preparing for the third level of the "Chicken King Competition".
The third level of the “Chicken King Competition”: marathon race.
It's not the chicken farmer who runs, but a chicken is chosen to participate in a 10-kilometer marathon to see whose chicken runs the shorter time.
Yang Cheng’s chicken farm has more than 5000 chickens. It is very difficult to select the best chicken to participate in the long-distance race.
First of all, the chicken’s leg muscles must be well-developed and its endurance must be long-lasting so that it can sustain a long-distance run of 10 kilometers.
Secondly, the chicken must have firm belief. After all, chickens are different from humans. When a human is on a marathon track, he will not run to the lake to take a bath or run to the square to watch square dancing. He will keep sprinting on the track until he reaches the finish line.
However, a chicken is different. After all, it is just a chicken. Many things may happen to it when it is running, such as stopping to look at the surrounding scenery, chatting up the beautiful chickens next to it, or flying off the track and escaping, becoming a wild chicken...
Therefore, it is very difficult for a chicken to pass this level. Some netizens joked on the forum: This level is really abnormal. It would be good enough if a chicken can complete the entire 10 kilometers.
Yang Cheng was also very worried. How could he select qualified chickens from 5000 chickens?
How to train it after selecting it?
All the employees at the chicken farm held a meeting for a whole day, and finally, Xingxing came up with a good idea.
He first starved all the chickens for two meals.
Wait until the chickens' eyes glow green with hunger, and then drive them all to a wide cement road. This is all thanks to Qin Che, as he built the road.
Xingxing fenced off both sides of the road, and at the end of the road was a large basin of chicken feed.
After all the chickens were standing, Xingxing pulled the rope blocking the road...
The hungry chickens had been chirping at the bowl of chicken feed for a long time. As soon as the rope was released, they ran towards the end of the road.
This run caused problems.
really.
Sure enough, some chickens gave up halfway through running, and even though they were hungry, they stopped running and started walking slowly.
Some chickens would chat with the chickens next to them every few steps and would peck at each other's feathers from time to time.
Some chickens have a poor sense of direction and run to the edge of the fence, rubbing against it and rubbing against it again and again as they run, until in the end all their feathers are rubbed off.
……
Anyway, there were a lot of chickens running around and dogs in a panic.
The scene was very chaotic.
Finally, at the end of the road, Yang Cheng saw a chicken.
The chicken was reckless from beginning to end, rushing forward with its head lowered. It even stepped on the backs of several chickens on the way and flew away. In the end, it finally reached the finish line.
Yang Cheng saw that the chicken kept eating after reaching the finish line, and the whole chicken flew into the chicken feeder, as if it wanted to bury itself.
Yang Cheng watched carefully as the chicken worked hard to eat.
She found that it was not a coincidence that the chicken could reach the finish line, it was inevitable.
Its body is very smooth, with a long neck, a smooth back, a flat belly without a trace of fat, and very plump feathers on its wings.
And its chicken legs are very long.
The thigh is slightly shorter than the calf, the ankle is thin, the Achilles tendon is long and flat, the toes are even and short, the toe joints are strong, and the calf muscles are fusiform.
This is the body type that a long-distance runner is born with!
