Feed mills are going to raise prices?

When Shen Qiqi heard the news brought by Lu Qing, she felt unwell.

The corners of her mouth, which were originally upturned, drooped in an instant, like an eggplant hit by frost - wilted.

The "victory song" has now turned into a "funeral march".

"Director Wu is so dishonest! We agreed on a price before, but now he changes it without saying anything. Isn't this cheating us?" Shen Qiqi stomped her feet in anger, and her beautiful eyebrows twisted into a knot.

She felt like an unlucky player who worked so hard to kill monsters and level up, and was about to pass the level, but the system suddenly announced maintenance and all her experience points were reset to zero.

“Qiqi, don’t worry, we’ll think of a way.” Lu Qing patted Shen Qiqi’s shoulder gently and comforted her.

Although he also felt that Director Wu's actions were not right, the most important thing at the moment was to solve the problem.

"What else can we do? He's the only feed factory in the entire village. Where else can we buy feed?" Shen Qiqi said angrily, her tone full of helplessness.

"If it really doesn't work, let's go to the next county town to have a look." Lu Qing suggested.

Shen Qiqi's eyes lit up, and she thought this was a good idea. Although the next county town was a little far away, it was better than having no feed at all.

As soon as she said it, she went straight to the feed factory the next morning, ready to have a good argument with Director Wu.

Arriving at the feed factory, Shen Qiqi asked Director Wu directly: "Director Wu, what do you mean by raising the price suddenly?"

Director Wu sat in the boss chair, crossed his legs, and looked arrogant: "Chen Qiqi, this is a market economy, determined by supply and demand. Now that feed is in short supply, the price will naturally rise. Do you understand?"

"I understand! Of course I understand! But the price you promised me before was not this!" Shen Qiqi argued.

"It's a different time now." Director Wu waved his hand dismissively. "The situation is different now. There's nothing I can do."

Shen Qiqi could see that Director Wu was deliberately making things difficult for her.

"Director Wu, aren't you afraid that I will tell the villagers about this by doing this?" Shen Qiqi's tone turned cold.

Director Wu chuckled disdainfully: "Go ahead and sue me, all you want. These days, whoever has money is the boss."

"You..." Shen Qiqi was so angry that she couldn't speak.

At this time, Mrs. Lu walked in from outside. She said to Director Wu with a flattering look on her face, "Director Wu, you are really wise and powerful. The price is really appropriate." After that, she glanced at Shen Qiqi with a gloomy look, "Some people just don't know what's good for them. They don't know how to be shameless even if you give them face."

Shen Qiqi glared at Lu Ersao, too lazy to argue with her.

She took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and then said to Director Wu, "Director Wu, since you are unwilling to sell me feed at the previous price, there is nothing more for us to discuss."

"Goodbye, I won't see you off." Director Wu waved his hand, as if he was sending away the god of plague.

Shen Qiqi turned and walked away. When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "Director Wu, you'd better pray that my chickens don't starve to death, otherwise..." She didn't say anything else, but just smiled meaningfully.

Shen Qiqi walked out of the feed factory, feeling angry.

Director Wu's expression made her want to rush up and punch him.

Mrs. Lu's weird look made her feel even more sick.

"I'm so mad!" Shen Qiqi kicked a stone on the side of the road fiercely, grimacing in pain.

As the chickens, ducks and geese in the chicken coop grow bigger day by day, the demand for feed is also increasing, but now feed has become the biggest problem.

Without enough feed, these poultry will starve sooner or later.

Shen Qiqi felt under tremendous pressure, like a huge mountain pressing down on her, making it hard for her to breathe.

She rubbed her temples, trying to calm herself down.

"No, I can't give up! There must be other ways!" Shen Qiqi encouraged herself. She didn't believe that chickens could starve to death in this era!

In the next few days, Shen Qiqi ran almost all over the village, and even went to the neighboring village, but the results were the same, either there was no feed or the price was ridiculously high.

She dragged her exhausted body back home, feeling completely broken.

The sunlight shone on her body, but there was no warmth, instead it made her feel even more irritated.

"Are we really going to give up?" Shen Qiqi slumped in the yard, her eyes empty and she felt powerless.

Just when she was about to despair, she suddenly remembered that her grandmother once told her when she was a child that there was a kind of wild grass on the back mountain that could be used to feed chickens and ducks.

"Yeah! How could I have forgotten about this!" Shen Qiqi stood up suddenly, a glimmer of hope rekindled in her eyes.

She trotted all the way to the back mountain.

The air in the back mountain is fresh, with birds singing and flowers blooming, and a breeze brings a hint of coolness.

Shen Qiqi took a deep breath and felt a lot more relaxed.

She carefully identified the plants on the roadside, and finally, in a bush, she found the weed.

"That's it!" Shen Qiqi shouted excitedly, and quickly squatted down to observe carefully.

This wild grass has green leaves and thick stems and looks nutritious.

Shen Qiqi picked a leaf and put it in her mouth to chew it. It had a light fragrance with a hint of bitterness.

"It should be possible." Shen Qiqi was secretly happy and quickly began to collect these weeds.

She held a sickle in one hand and grabbed the weeds with the other, harvesting them skillfully.

Sweat slid down her forehead and soaked her clothes, but she didn't care at all.
