Chapter 155 [I want revenge! ]
The children couldn't walk when they saw the furry little chicken.
"I want to raise it!"
“I want it too!”
......
The children were chattering and clamoring, and Wen Xiaomei maintained order: "Alright, everyone line up quietly, and only those who behave well will be adopted first!"
"Being able to control yourself is the only way to prove that you are a good care animal!"
The children immediately quieted down and waited obediently for their assignments.
Jiang Lili felt that Wen Xiaomei would be a great candidate to be a kindergarten teacher in modern times! She was so good at taking care of children, even though she was still a child herself.
She took out a stack of written papers and said, "Don't worry, here's a letter of responsibility. If you adopt a chick, you'll be responsible for its life. Once the chick grows up, you need to give me a pheasant egg or five pheasant feathers every month."
The children were stunned when they heard Jiang Lili's statement of responsibility. They discussed it for a while before they understood it. Some children even showed hesitation on their faces.
Master Liao came up to Jiang Lili and winked at her, his tone strongly condemning: "Sister, you really are a scoundrel. You even want to charge interest on children's money?"
"You don't know this, do you?" Jiang Lili explained, "We need to make them understand that adopting a chick isn't just about having a playmate, it also means they shoulder a responsibility. Otherwise, what if some children just want to play around and don't care about the chick's life or death?"
Master Liao gave a thumbs up and said, "Sister, you are right. I will listen to you!"
Finally, with everyone's agreement, all nine little pheasants found new little keepers, and Wen Xiaomei also adopted one.
Seeing the disappointed faces of some children, Jiang Lili comforted them, "It doesn't matter if you didn't get any chicks. We'll get more when we go up the mountain. You can also raise some with other children and supervise them to take care of the chicks."
Jiang Lili finally entrusted the little ones to her care and breathed a sigh of relief. "If you have any questions, you can ask Liao Dabao. Liao Dabao is also very good at raising chickens!"
After hearing Jiang Lili's words, the other children's eyes lit up again. They couldn't wait to tease the chicks and play with them. Soon they dispersed and took the chicks to play.
Jiang Lili thought this was the end, but she didn't know it was just the beginning.
From now on, the young breeders will raise more than just pheasant chicks.
After distributing the chicks, Jiang Lili and Master Liao walked towards the village's farmland.
They made an appointment with the village chief Li Zhan to help check the crops in the village fields this morning.
Although Jiang Lili had a backpack and no worries about food, it could only solve the short-term problem. If everyone relied on the backpack, it would be a bottomless pit.
Increasing the productivity of Dan'er County would be in line with the strategy she and the head of the He family had agreed upon to use Haizhou Island as the He family's retreat.
As a tropical island with diverse terrain, Haizhou Island has also formed a variety of soil properties.
But the most common soil is still acidic red soil, which has low fertility and the crops grown there will not yield well.
Because of the abundant heat, crops here mature quickly.
But this has both advantages and disadvantages. Crops mature quickly but also rot quickly, and are prone to breeding mold. Such conditions have both advantages and disadvantages. However, with Master Liao around, we can always find a way to have a good harvest.
Before the two of them reached the village vegetable fields, they saw from afar a group of villagers wearing straw hats gathered together, looking anxious. The village chief, Li Zhan, was speaking their local dialect, as if trying to comfort everyone.
Seeing this, Jiang Lili guessed something must have happened, and quickly took Master Liao forward to ask, "What's wrong? What happened?"
The village chief pointed to the mountain behind the vegetable patch and said, "Old Zhao and Old Yu from the village said they were going to the creek behind the mountain to get some water. But it's already been an hour and they haven't come back yet. I think something must have happened!"
Jiang Lili had also met the two people the village chief mentioned. When making coconut chicken yesterday, these two fellow villagers were very diligent and put in a lot of effort.
Jiang Lili also became anxious, "So are we going to go into the mountains to look for the two fellow villagers now?"
Li Zhan pointed to a woman wearing a tie-dyed headscarf and a moth tattoo on her face. "That's Granny Zheng from our village. She can tell the weather."
"She said it's going to rain heavily soon, and we might be in danger if we go into the mountains!"
Jiang Lili had heard that women of the Li tribe would tattoo totems such as moths and butterflies on their faces, which was called embroidered face.
The larger and more gorgeous the totem pattern is, the higher the status.
Grandma Zheng didn't speak Mandarin, and shook her head at Jiang Lili, indicating that it was very dangerous in the mountains.
Jiang Lili remembered that she still had a reconnaissance plane, so she blew a long series of quick and sharp whistles. After a while, an eagle with spread wings appeared in the sky, circled and landed beside Jiang Lili.
The villagers of Yeli Village were stunned when they saw such a big eagle landing next to Jiang Lili and being so well-behaved. It was an eagle!
Even Grandma Zheng had a bit more awe in her eyes towards Jiang Lili.
Jiang Lili asked the village chief, "What color clothes are Lao Zhao and Lao Yu wearing today?"
Li Zhan quickly replied: "One is gray and the other is dark blue."
Jiang Lili asked Xiaopang to deliver a can of food. She took it out of her backpack and said to Liefeng, "Look around the mountains around here to see if there are two villagers dressed similarly."
Jiang Lili pointed to two villagers wearing gray and dark blue clothes respectively.
The eagle's eyes have three types of light-sensitive cells and can also sense ultraviolet rays, giving it extraordinary visual abilities.
Liefeng looked at the two villagers with his clear yellow eyes for a while, then spread his wings and flew towards the back mountain.
The villagers were waiting anxiously. Master Liao, holding his golden cudgel, was still calmly observing the growth of crops in the fields of Yeli Village.
About a quarter of an hour later, Liefeng came back!
But after it came back, it kept using its mouth to pull at the villagers' clothes.
The villagers who were dragged by Liefeng dared not speak out. They looked at Jiang Lili with bitter faces and eyes asking for help.
The village chief also looked at Jiang Lili: "Miss Jiang, what's going on?"
Jiang Lili grabbed Liefeng's neck and lifted the eagle over. After a few gestures, Jiang Lili seemed to understand: "He means that he found the two fellow villagers, but they seem to have torn clothes and are afraid to come out to see people."
ah? !
The villagers had anticipated all kinds of situations, but they really didn't expect this situation!
Liefeng was very smart. He used his pointed beak to carve an animal with a long tail on the ground. Jiang Lili could vaguely recognize that it was a monkey.
Jiang Lili began to understand and explained, "It said two fellow villagers were surrounded by a group of monkeys. They were beaten up and their clothes were torn by the monkeys. Now they can't escape."
"What? Monkey!" Master Liao, who was originally still carefully inspecting the dry rice in the field, seemed to have been triggered by a keyword. He swung the golden hoop in his hand and said, "Go into the mountains immediately. I want revenge!"
