"Okay, then you go ahead and do your work, I'll come to visit you and Uncle Xu another day." Xu Nanjie nodded politely, glanced at Xu Qingzhi and the girl nestled in Xu Qingzhi's arms, then rode away on his tricycle.

After everyone left, Wang Yanmei was about to ask: "Qingzhi, what do you think of..." What do you think of this person? Before Wang Yanmei could finish her words, Xu Qingzhi interrupted: "Mom, I bought another 300 chickens and 300 ducks, and I plan to expand the scale of breeding. We only have one chicken a day, and sometimes we eat two a day, which is a bit not enough."

"What!" Wang Yanmei's eyes bulged, "Three hundred chickens and three hundred ducks!"

"Yes." Xu Qingzhi got on the tricycle, took Wen Shanshan with him, turned a corner and drove home, shouting, "Mom, if you and Dad are free, help me find someone to build a few more chicken coops. Dad can't handle it alone. And the pool also needs to be enlarged and made into a pond."

Wang Yanmei wanted to say something to her daughter, asking why she bought so many chickens and ducks without saying a word. But she couldn't say anything because the tricycle had already driven away with a humming sound.

Wang Yanmei walked all the way home with a lot to say, but when she reached the yard and saw the chickens and ducks behind the car, she was speechless.

Now that I've bought it, I can't just ignore it.

Xu Fuqiang just happened to be carrying back an empty kettle. He was going to fill it with tea and take it back to the mountain so that everyone could quench their thirst while picking bayberries.

Wang Yanmei then told the story about the 300 chickens and ducks.

Xu Fuqiang slapped his thigh and said, "If my daughter wants to raise one, then she can. Our forest is big enough, so there is no problem at all. There is also a large barren mountain behind us, which belongs to us. I will extend it upwards to expand the area when the time comes."

"Okay, then you take charge of this matter. It's okay if it doesn't rain these few days, but it will be difficult to deal with if it rains later. I'll go get the water." Wang Yanmei took the kettle and went back into the house.

She filled the kettle with drinking water and felt something was wrong. She wondered if she had failed to explain something to Fuqiang.

Never mind. I can’t remember.

Three hundred chickens and three hundred ducks, my God, they add up to almost seven or eight hundred. The millet stored at home is almost not enough to eat. Fortunately, this year's millet can be harvested in a while.

Wang Yanmei was carrying a water bottle and preparing to go up the mountain. She did not forget to remind her daughter: "Qingzhi, please make a list of vegetables for today so that I can find someone to pick them in advance."

"Okay." Xu Qingzhi responded obediently while lying on the recliner under the persimmon tree.

Wang Yanmei hurried to the back mountain to deliver tea.

Xu Fuqiang was busy buying bricks and calling people to build a chicken coop. After the chicken coop was built, he would also buy some cement, bamboo and wire mesh to expand the scope, since it was all his own land anyway.

As for the straw for the chicken coop, there was still a lot at home. He left a large pile last year, so it was enough.

Xu Qingzhi felt great watching his parents busy at work.

When I'm busy, I won't always think about finding a partner for her.

These three hundred chickens and three hundred ducks will be enough to keep me busy for a while.

"Qingzhi, are you planning to raise the chickens and ducks and sell them?" Wen Shanshan asked.

"I'm not selling it. Eat it yourself."

Xu Qingzhi had never thought of selling these. Her chickens and ducks were raised on rice bran and corn, and they were also fed with rotten fruits and vegetables with rotten leaves that contained spiritual energy. The cost of raising them was quite high.

Normally, the native chickens raised in rural areas are basically not sold. They are kept for family consumption during the New Year. If a fellow villager wants to buy one, he will at least ask for a red banknote.

She bought so many chickens and ducks because she thought the two little ones ate meat too quickly and wanted to replenish the spiritual space.

So, seeing that her parents are free recently, she found something for them to do so that they don’t have to worry about finding a partner for her.

Xu Fuqiang took the tricycle key and prepared to send the chickens and ducks away: "Qingzhi, Dad will send these chickens and ducks to the former pig sty first. When the expansion is completed, we will bring them here. Then let your grandpa help feed them first."

"Okay." Xu Qingzhi nodded.

The pig sty was next to the old house. After Xu Fuqiang's tofu business failed, raising pigs happened to be profitable, so Xu Fuqiang built a brick house specifically for raising pigs. It had four rooms and an activity area, and was quite large.

Xu Qingzhi had a deep impression of her father raising pigs.

Her father was carrying buckets of pig feed and pouring them into the trough without even listening.

Her brother's stumbling singing mingled with the grunting of the pigs.

Then, her mother touched her head and said, "You are so great, my daughter. You have taught your brother to sing."

Xiao Qingzhi was very happy to be praised.

That feeling was so unforgettable that Xu Qingzhi still remembers that scene and her father's back as he fed the pigs without looking back.

When Xu Qingzhi thought of these memories, the corners of his mouth curled up and he found it quite funny.

However, the pig farming business did not end well. The business did not continue and the pig pens were used to raise chickens and ducks.

Later, after the Xu family built a new house and moved into it, the pigsty was left abandoned there. Ah Gong would usually pile some firewood in it.

Don't want to think about it anymore.

Xu Qingzhi opened his phone and sorted out today's orders. He thought that since there were so many orders yesterday, there would be fewer orders today.

The result actually hit a new high, with a lot of additional large orders.

The number of new friend notifications is still 99+, and she is thinking about whether to set up a second vegetable selling group.

Wen Shanshan screamed, "Oh no, Qingzhi."

"Hmm?" Xu Qingzhi looked at her puzzledly.

"Look!" Wen Shanshan placed the mobile phone page in front of her, which was a post on the little green tree.

——Finally I got to eat the boss’s fresh vegetables. The tomatoes and cucumbers were delicious. No wonder they were well reviewed online. The Chinese cabbage was also very delicious. But it was too expensive. I spent 300 yuan per pound.

The comments below are:

"Sister, where did you buy it? I can't add my boss on WeChat."

"Isn't it 200 yuan per pound? How come the price has increased to 300 yuan? This boss is too ruthless."

"Yes, check the homepage and add v."

"How do I buy it?"

"Besides tomatoes, cucumbers, and Chinese cabbage, are there any other vegetables?"

"Who did you ask to do it for you, sister? It's such a rip-off. I'll only charge you 100 yuan for doing it for you."

"Please, private me."

Xu Qingzhi scanned the comments below and found that they were basically the same.

"If this phenomenon is not stopped, you won't be able to explain yourself if those purchasing agents take other people's poor quality vegetables and claim they are yours." Wen Shanshan frowned and said worriedly.

Jiang Xiao was sitting next to her chatting with someone. When he heard Wen Shanshan's words, he asked, "What's wrong?"

Wen Shanshan then told the story about purchasing vegetables at high prices.

Jiang Xiao thought for a while and said tentatively: "If you want, I can buy all these vegetables. From now on, the vegetables you grow will be used as a special supply."
