IT elites return home to start up and sell eggs with more than 80 agents.

When it comes to entrepreneurship, when it comes to raising chickens, everyone seems to be able to find such similar entrepreneurs around them, free-range, green, ecological, no feed... These breeding "exclusive nouns" seem to be very common, if high-tech and chicken farming are linked together, can you imagine what kind of scene it will be?

So many chickens, why is the grass so dense? This is the most common question asked by villagers. Tan Zilong said with a smile that chickens should also develop harmoniously with the tree environment. This is a big topic.

For 5 years, he took his daughter-in-law back home to start a business

"Actually, when I was in college, I thought that one day I could raise chickens in front of my house. However, I felt that it was not appropriate and I was afraid of being laughed at, so I became a North Drifter." Tan Zilong of Linyi talked about the original intention of starting a business. The reason why he started a business to raise chickens still stems from his love for agriculture, that is, he likes to deal with agriculture.

Like all Beipiao, Tan Zilong worked in Beijing after graduation, engaged in IT industry, with an annual salary of one million yuan. In the eyes of relatives and friends, it was a promising job. However, when the Beidrift family vowed to make a big break, when colleagues drank coffee and watched the street scene in the cafe, Tan Zilong felt that all this was not the life he wanted. Even if he held coffee and watched movies, he also felt wasted.

"I always feel that no matter how hard I work in Beijing, I don't feel like returning home. The more I see the prosperity of Beijing, the more I want to go home and start a business." Tan Zilong said.

With a love for agriculture, an IT man returned to Beishigou Village, Nanzhangzhuang Township, Linyi Fei County with his daughter-in-law, and began his pioneering road of ecological breeding.

Scientific and technological innovation, chicken laying does not go the usual way

In the traditional impression, chicken laying entrepreneurship seems to have a routine, but in Tan Zilong this entrepreneurial road, it is completely different, he bought 2000 grass chicken seedlings, through hybridization optimization chicken seedling genes, hybridization can make chicken seedlings have various advantages: laying hen genes can produce more eggs, then hybrid laying hen; Pheasant gene resistance is strong, then hybrid pheasant... After repeated experiments, chicken seedlings die because of experiments every day. In Tan Zilong's view, this is the price that the experiment must go through, but in the eyes of others, this is a destructive experiment, digging its own grave. Tan Zilong's parents were the first to sit still. They watched as a large number of chickens died every day. In the blink of an eye, they lost tens of thousands of yuan. Their parents were helpless. Finally, they slammed the door angrily and left.

About a year has passed, 2000 chicken seedlings after constant experiments, only more than 100 survived, but a new breed of grass chicken has also been bred, Tan Zilong named the new breed: Yuchun No.1. A chicken produces an average of 220 eggs a year, compared with about 100 eggs laid by ordinary native chickens. These chickens not only peck at insects on the ground, Tan Zilong also gives them a special "nutritional meal" to increase nutrition. High-protein yeast powder is used instead of soybean meal; nutrition ratio is designed according to the needs at different stages of chicken growth; solar lamps are used in all chicken sheds; the material ratio on the hotbed is also his own research... The result of all innovations is that the cost is reduced, the quality of eggs is improved, and the benefits are constantly increasing.

"My research on chicken eggs is not only chicken seedlings, feed, probiotics, micro-ecological preparations are all developed by me, but also fermentation beds. Chicken manure will be decomposed in three hours after falling on the fermentation bed, and the energy released by decomposition can be absorbed by chickens." Tan Zilong talks about his research on chicken laying, and he will talk endlessly. In the simplest case, in the heavy snow in winter 2015, no chicken got sick, but in such bad weather, there were chickens laying eggs. This makes the villagers some "amazing".

This series of high-tech chickens make Tan Zilong's chickens and eggs different. Because the genes have all kinds of excellent qualities of grass chicken, pheasant and laying hen, the eggshell color of these eggs is also very rich, with light green, light blue, olive, pink and khaki, which is rare in the market. Tan Zilong calls them "colored eggs".

Craftsman spirit, focus on selling eggs all his life

During the interview, I can feel the power of Tan Zilong's high-tech chicken farming from time to time. Some problems that have plagued chicken farmers for many years have been solved by Tan Zilong. It is a nature for hens to hold their nests. Facing this nature, the most common method for chicken farmers is to tie one leg of the chicken to a tree or directly feed medicine. Some chickens can't stop it from holding their nests even if they are fed medicine. Therefore, Tan Zilong searched for various books and finally found a solution in the experience of American chicken farming. "I didn't invent this method, but it's really effective. That is to isolate the hens in cages for six hours and give them enough water to drink. This method will not brood again for at least half a year." Tan Zilong said that in fact, raising chickens is countless small experiences, and many foreigners 'experiences are particularly good. He is just a learner.

In 2014, after the chicken seedlings were cultivated, Tan Zilong began to concentrate on selling eggs. He had 5 years of experience in Beidrift IT, which also made his way to sell eggs smoother. "When I was in Beijing, I was engaged in sales and other jobs, so selling eggs is not a problem." Tan Zilong told reporters that probiotics and preparations kept the cholesterol content of eggs low because they paid special attention to feeding chickens. At present, the farm can produce more than 1500 grass eggs every day, and the price of each egg is between 1.5 yuan and 2 yuan, because most eggs are sold to other places through the network platform. Therefore, in order to ensure convenient transportation, Tan Zilong also specially designed egg trays of special materials. The shape design of egg trays is full of wisdom and innovation, and the transportation damage rate is almost zero. Now the farm has developed more than 80 agents all over the country, and the daily production of "colored eggs" is in short supply. In fact, Tan Zilong's farm creativity lies not only in breeding technology, but also in the concept of green environmental protection.

Although Tan Zilong has made grass eggs popular and the farm has begun to take shape, his goal is not limited to this."Take selling grass eggs as a breakthrough point, gradually develop three-dimensional ecological breeding, strive to build a typical three-dimensional ecological agricultural science and technology demonstration base in southern Shandong and northern Jiangsu within five years, and drive more people to become rich together." Tan Zilong said that the road to starting a business is very tired, tired enough to want to give up countless times, but since you have chosen the road of raising chickens and selling eggs, you must do the ultimate, learn the German craftsman spirit, and do only one thing in your life: sell eggs.
