On the first day of bankruptcy, Chu Xiao was horrified to discover his girlfriend and best friend in bed together in what was supposed to be his wedding chamber.
Unexpectedly, he then acquire...
The copper basin can now be used to transport living things.
He wanted to buy some live chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep, pigs, and fish to send to Qin Yuezhao.
Chickens and ducks can lay eggs, and livestock can reproduce. Passing on these living things from the past can ensure that Liangcheng's food supply will never run out.
He walked into the poultry farm and said to the owner, who was dozing off, "Boss, how many chickens, ducks, and geese do you have here? I'll take them all."
The boss was taking a nap in his recliner when he heard this, and he was so shocked that he fell off the chair.
"What the hell? You, you just said how many you wanted?"
"I said I'll take all the chickens, ducks, and geese you have here!"
"..."
The boss was completely stunned.
"No, handsome, there are eight thousand chickens, five thousand ducks, and six thousand geese here. You want them all?"
Chu Xiao nodded.
"Yes, I also run a farm. I want all your poultry. You can calculate the total price."
The boss looked Chu Xiao up and down again, then slapped himself hard across the face.
After confirming that he wasn't dreaming, he quickly said to the shop assistant not far away, "Xiao Li, hurry up and put the chickens, ducks and geese into the cages so this gentleman can weigh them."
Xiao Li had worked here for five or six years and had never seen such a big client before. He was momentarily stunned.
In the end, it was Chu Xiao who went into the breeding area first. Only then did he realize what was happening, opened the chicken coop, pressed down the wooden bars at each checkpoint, and herded the chickens into the wooden cages in groups of one hundred.
In the end, the chickens were put into eighty wooden cages, the ducks into fifty, and the geese into sixty.
The wooden cages filled the entire area outside the farm.
The shopkeeper, beaming, approached Chu Xiao and presented him with the bill.
"Young man, our chickens are all old chickens that have been raised on millet and insects for ten months. I'll give you a price of one hundred yuan per chicken, and the ducks and geese will be priced at eighty yuan per chicken. Is that right?"
There are 800,000 chickens and 400,000 geese and ducks, totaling 1.2 million.
Chu Xiao sized up each chicken; they all looked to be large chickens weighing four or five pounds or more. He didn't haggle with them and readily swiped his card.
Seeing how readily he agreed, the boss promptly delivered fifty bags of feed and millet to him, and personally drove a team to deliver the goods to the Chu family farm.
Chu Xiao parted ways with his boss and rushed to a nearby pig farm and cattle and sheep farm.
They bought 300 sows and 100 boars, all adult pigs, each weighing over 300 jin (150 kg). The sows were 500 yuan more expensive than the boars, and the total price came to 1.8 million yuan.
One hundred cows and fifty bulls, totaling two million six hundred thousand.
Three hundred ewes and two hundred rams, totaling one million two hundred thousand.
Seeing that he bought large quantities and said he would raise the animals on his farm, all the major farms vied to send him corn kernels, soybean residue, and hay.
These pigs, cattle, and sheep filled dozens of trucks.
In order not to cause too much of a commotion, he decided to go back to the farm first, send the chickens, ducks and geese to Qin Yuezhao, and then have someone send the pigs, cattle and sheep.
He drove back to the farm and sent Qin Yuezhao a message:
"Is Princess Yue Zhao here? I've bought you some chickens, ducks, and geese. Prepare a large area to receive them."
Qin Yue Zhao had just finished bathing and was getting dressed when she received Chu Xiao's message. She immediately stood up and called out to Chen Wan'er:
"Wan'er, hurry, hurry, don't rush to iron my clothes. The gods are sending chickens, ducks, and geese. Help me out quickly, I... cough cough, I'll go to the courtyard, cough cough cough cough..."
Seeing the princess coughing so badly, Chen Wan'er quickly draped the cloak over her shoulders and said with concern:
"Your Highness, what's wrong? Ever since you returned from leading the troops into battle, you've been coughing constantly, and your face is terribly pale. Could it be..."
"It's nothing, I just caught a cold. Don't let anyone else know. Come with me quickly!"
Qin Yue Zhao interrupted Chen Wan'er and decisively wrote a note to the gods:
"Thank you, God. Yue Zhao is ready."
