Chapter 692 You Deserve to Be Poor
Zhang Xiaohong and Xu Lijie are familiar with Shang Lifeng.
"Uncle Shang, thank you and Ruoting for your hospitality."
"It's Xiaohong and Xu Lijie. When you have nothing to do in the future, come here and Uncle Shang will make you something delicious."
"Thank you, Uncle Shang. I will come often."
Shang Lifeng was very busy in the kitchen. He exchanged a few words with everyone and then left in a hurry.
When he left, everyone became uneasy.
Yang Xiaojuan pulled Shang Ruoting aside and asked, "Ruoting, does your father work at the Ping An Hotel?"
Before Shang Ruoting could answer, Xu Lijie couldn't help but speak up, "This restaurant was opened by Ruoting's father, so of course he has to work here."
For a moment, the whole place was quiet.
What they heard was that Shang Ruoting's father was actually the owner of Ping An Hotel.
I heard that Ping An Hotel makes a fortune every day. No wonder Shang Ruoting invited them to dinner here without even blinking an eye. With such a father, why would she care about such a small amount of money for treating them?
After the shock, everyone looked at Shang Ruoting with envy.
Shang Ruoting knew that her classmates would definitely behave like this since they knew that the restaurant was opened by her father.
Since she had already thought of this, she didn't mind everyone's envious looks.
As the dishes were placed on the table, Shang Ruoting invited everyone to start eating.
"Everyone, stop standing there and try these dishes."
After all, Huang Baosen was a man who had experienced a lot of things, so he was the first to calm down.
"Yes, everyone must eat more and don't let Ruoting down."
The students had already been drooling at the sight of these delicacies, and when they saw someone picking up their chopsticks, they no longer hesitated.
With the idea that every bite is eating, and eating until you are full is eating too, we started to feast on the food.
There was no more conversation in the huge private room, only the sound of twenty-one people chewing. It was so delicious. I will definitely come here more often when I have money in the future.
In a flash, all the twenty dishes that Shang Ruoting had ordered in advance were gone.
Huang Baosen and his classmates rubbed their bellies, which were almost bursting, and after expressing their gratitude to Shang Ruoting, they left.
Shang Ruoting stayed in the store to help, and went back with her father and Shao Ping later.
The next day, Shang Ruoting had just put the four little ones to sleep when the phone rang.
She thought it was Tan Chen, but unexpectedly it was Governor Luo.
During the phone conversation, we learned that after much persuasion from him, Minister Lu finally agreed to allocate part of the first batch of high-yield wheat seeds to Beihe Province for planting.
In addition, he attached great importance to Shang Ruoting's proposal to raise ostriches. After some discussion, everyone felt that this was feasible.
Governor Luo not only issued an order for the people of Beihe Province to raise ostriches, but also sent people to make a preliminary statistics of the number of ostriches raised.
At first, when the people heard that the governor was mobilizing everyone to engage in breeding to get rich, they were all very enthusiastic. However, when they heard that the breeding objects were ostriches, many people backed off.
Although some people are familiar with ostriches, they have only seen them in books or in zoos, and have never heard of anyone raising one at home.
Besides, they don’t know the future market prices of ostrich eggs or ostrich meat. If they can’t sell them, won’t they lose money?
In this case, it would be better to just catch a piglet and raise it at home. By the end of the year, you can at least see some profit.
After hearing everyone's attitude, Governor Luo did not continue lobbying, but cursed in his heart:
You don’t even have the courage to try new things, you deserve to be poor.
Despite this, there are still a small number of people willing to raise them. After counting the number, 106 ostrich chicks are currently needed.
Just when Governor Luo was about to finalize the promotion of ostrich farming, the county magistrate of Feng County came to him with Director Cui.
A few days ago, Tan Chen called Director Cui and asked him to help find some more workers to go to Pengcheng.
At that time, Director Cui was worried about the ostrich breeding issue because of something his superiors said. Thinking that Tan Chen was knowledgeable, he asked for his opinion.
Although Tan Chen was not at home, he would call home every week to communicate with his wife, and would share what was happening around them from time to time. Therefore, Tan Chen had long heard that Shang Ruoting suggested that the people of Beihe Province raise ostriches.
Regardless of who proposed this, there are so many ostriches in my wife's space. Just selling them to Ping An Hotel will make a considerable profit.
Therefore, when Secretary Cui asked for his opinion, he, like Shang Ruoting, carefully explained to Director Cui the various benefits and profits of ostrich farming.
Director Cui has unconditional faith in Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen. After hearing what Tan Chen said, he can conclude that the profits from raising ostriches must be considerable.
