Chapter 776: Chapter 406 Certificate in Hand_1
"Yan Xiaofei, do you think I need to bring an extra pair of shoes?"
"No need..."
"Then do I need to bring a thicker set of clothes? There might be typhoons by the sea, in case the weather gets chilly."
"No need..."
"How can everything be not needed? I can’t possibly just wear the clothes I’m in, right?"
"It’s not like we’re going into the wilderness. In places like Hong Kong or Shen City, is there anything you can’t buy?"
"Buy, buy, buy. All you know is to buy. Things there are so expensive!"
"..."
Yan Fei lies on the rattan chair outside the door, with the evening glow filling the sky. The breeze by the river blows gently, making him feel a bit lazy. As he watches the setting sun in the west and chats occasionally with his wife, a golden eagle stands on the armrest of the rattan chair, allowing his hand to drape unconsciously over its body. Around the chair, a variety of animals sulk about in a drowsy state...
Yan Fei believes this is what a happy life looks like.
This old rattan chair, strengthened time and again, supports his body barely. When he moves slightly, it emits a groan as if it was overburdened.
The furniture in and outside the room has been replaced with new ones, all of which are ’defective products’ of his antique-style furnishings. Although he isn’t particularly fond of them, you would not be able to determine the defects without close inspection. It’s either the pattern in a certain place that went slightly wrong or the design that he wasn’t entirely satisfied with.
Only this rattan chair, which has been in use by his grandfather for who knows how many years, he hesitated to let it go even though there are several brand new lounging chairs now.
In his words, it’s nostalgia.
Every time he lies on it, in his wife’s words, if someone handed him a pot of tea right now, others might think that he’s a man in his seventies or eighties, instead of the famous Yan Fei, the boss of Sancha River village.
Both the special zone pass and the Hong Kong pass have been handled efficiently. Within a week, he received a call from the Exit and Entry Administration Office. Both passes are simple booklets affixed with photos and stamped. He was looking forward to getting them, but when he got them, they didn’t seem much different from his junior high school diploma, which he obtained not so long ago when he shamelessly asked the school for it and they processed it on the spot.
He wasn’t idle this week though. Now the five young men from Guan Village are working on their own in the newly constructed greenhouse, growing mushrooms and breeding earthworms. In the beginning, it was busy with each person managing several greenhouses, and they hurried about every day.
Yan Fei advised them not to rush, but they couldn’t stand idle. They started early and ended late, working extremely hard.
Those who offended him had all been brought to court and then directly sent to the ’University of Social Reeducation’ for labor reform. The loss of beef plus medical fees, labor costs, and so on, cost them a considerable amount, totaling seventy to eighty thousand.
They paid promptly. They couldn’t dare to default on it now. When the verdict came out, someone delivered the money. Of course, they must be resentful, but Yan Fei just dismissed it. Even if the brother of the other party wanted revenge, he wouldn’t dare to make any moves at such a critical time.
Unless, one day, the cattle farm goes bankrupt, and then they, seizing the opportunity, keep adding insult to the injury. But now, they are arguably part of the system, they naturally know the consequences of rashly challenging the bottom line of the system. Of course, what they probably care more about now is how to get those people out as soon as possible...
Although there have been some hiccups, things are currently moving towards his ideal scenario.
He no longer has to worry about delivering the beef himself. He has already negotiated with several restaurants in the city, who are willing to come and pull the beef. They usually have to go to the countryside to buy cows. Now, they come here to buy beef directly. Even though it’s a bit less convenient than when the beef used to be delivered right to their doors, it’s better than buying cows.
The cattle farm now has a good reputation. Taking a quick trip here to load up on beef is not much work at all.
As for driving a big truck full of beef around the city to sell, Yan Fei doesn’t plan to do it anymore. Those who come to pull the beef will they naturally buy more if they find it profitable. The current task for everyone at the cattle farm is, keep raising cows!
Although the agreement with The Sixth Miss Guo hasn’t been signed yet, nor has the money been received, and they have only verbally agreed for now. The so-called contract is just a piece of paper, which they can write once they get there, it’s simple. The Sixth Miss Guo, on the other hand, keeps talking or, should I say, boasting with Xu Xiaoyan over the phone about how great the location of her new steakhouse is and how bright the future looks.
There’s no need to worry about money. Once the contract is signed, the money will be transferred. It doesn’t matter if it’s just a few more days.
It’s just unknown how Old Gui and his group would react when they find out that the cattle farm no longer retails beef. They might be so shocked that they’ll vomit blood. They had connections and a market, they just needed to negotiate to secure a stable supply channel, they wouldn’t need to keep making their illicit gains. But they chose a narrow path. Now they’ve ended up losing everything, like dumplings dropped into water, which is horribly tragic.
It’s like a bunch of ants struggling to carry a dead bug, thinking that a passing tiger would snatch their food. They don’t realize that the shreds of meat that drop accidentally from a tiger’s mouth would be more than enough to satiate their hunger.
The number of customers coming to pull the beef is gradually increasing, and people from the surrounding county cities are beginning to inquire around.
That’s the benefit of having a big name. Everyone knows that the beef here is supplied to Hong Kong, so they feel safe buying it. Unlike when they buy and slaughter the cows themselves, there’s the fear that the cows might be sick.
The issue is that it’s all just starting, and the beef still can’t be sold out. The remaining beef is then turned into dried beef by Master Xing and a worker from the Meat Processing Factory. Master Xing is a bit too honest. Yan Fei told him to find a few workers, but he only found one. The reason being the amount of beef at the present is too small, and they both could handle it.
Master Xing had also noticed the increasing number of customers coming to pull the beef from the cattle farm. If the current rate of slaughter stays the same, there will come a day when the beef is butchered, and it will be pulled away immediately. Maybe at that time, even the dried beef won’t have raw materials.
Two people were still a bit busy, so Yan Fei found them another helper, who was his cousin Lin Haihu. The silly kid had gritted his teeth and worked so hard for so many days. When he heard that Yan Fei asked him to help make dried beef, he first showed an overwhelmingly surprised and happy expression, then immediately looked calm and said, since you need me, cousin, I can go anywhere.
Actually, he didn’t know how eager he was to go. The only reason he persisted for so many days was to save face. Now, he wanted to pretend to be calm, but he didn’t even know how to act. Even a fool could see the happiness in his eyes. ƒreewebɳovel.com
