As the two talked, the people around them took notice, and another senior asked, “Junior, don’t you also have beef jerky over there?
What’s the situation now?”
Yan Fei answered with a smile, “I only started that because I was afraid that regular beef wouldn’t sell well, but it turned out that due to its reputation for being sold in Hong Kong, the sales here are pretty decent.”
The senior laughed, “No wonder you don’t advertise.
In our remote area, we don’t even know about your brand of beef jerky.
When you decide to promote it, give a heads-up early!”
Yan Fei expressed his gratitude, “Thanks a lot, senior.
I’ll definitely co to you when it’s ti.”
This senior was one of those who had started a business early without working much after graduation, transitioning from local specialties to owning a supermarket now—a successful career.
Yan Fei did admire him; he had started his business back in his hotown, helping his hotown prosper.
Quite many people couldn’t do that.
Actually, most of these seniors were doing pretty well.
So held reasonably good leadership positions, and there were quite a few like Wang Jiuming who were doing well in companies.
After all, college graduates from a few years ago, unless particularly unlucky, or with very low emotional intelligence like Liu JinXue, usually found it not too hard to make a mark.
While they were chatting, Yan Fei’s phone rang.
Now familiar with several of the seniors nearby, one joked, “Junior, it’s the middle of the night and yet you’re still getting calls.
Don’t forget the young lady back ho now that you have money!”
Yan Fei checked the number, “Definitely not, this number is from the secretary of our county’s leader.
It must be sothing important!
By the way, the secretary is male, just like us…”
Before leaving to take the call, another senior who had drunk a bit too much added, “Going out to take the call behind our backs?
Sounds like trouble!”
Yan Fei, ever swift, laughed heartily and chose to sit back down, “Then don’t mind taking a call and interrupting your chat!”
Picking up the phone, he asked, “What’s up, great secretary?
Still calling at this hour?”
Xiao Zhao’s tone was not as light as his: “Boss Yan…
it’s pretty noisy there, isn’t it?”
Yan Fei explained, “I’m in Provincial City, just had dinner with a few seniors, and so are still drinking.
Go on, I can hear you.”
Xiao Zhao then rembered the important matter, “Oh Brother Fei!
There’s big news this ti.
The departnt is sending soone, probably to your place!”
Yan Fei pretended to be startled, “Co on, big secretary, you shouldn’t joke like that.
Are you trying to scare ?”
In fact, none of the seniors around him could tell that he was startled at all; he remained quite composed.
“It’s really happening!” Xiao Zhao started to explain.
“You know about the ‘National Livestock and Poultry Breed Protection Directory,’ right?
Turns out our Wan City cattle are pretty famous.
The departnt is updating the directory and our Wan City cattle might make the list.
But before listing, they want to inspect and get to know about our local farming scale and other aspects.
It’s really annoying though…”
Xiao Zhao, still young, spoke quite directly, “Originally, the inspection was ant to cover several places, especially since our county is a key breeding area, they definitely couldn’t miss us.
But so people in the city, probably jealous of our county’s good cattle farming, waited until the last minute to notify us.
Isn’t that irritating?”
He sounded indignant, but Yan Fei swiftly had a hunch.
Tanghe County was indeed a key area for cattle farming in Wan City.
But there was more—he also considered himself a key figure in Tanghe County.
If they ca for an inspection, they would likely visit his farm which was of a decent scale.
Thus, the problem arose.
His relationship with so people in the city wasn’t great, especially with the Cattle Research Institute.
There was also the Cattle Farming Association, which had called him before.
He had been rather indifferent, showing no proactive attitude to join the organization sooner.
This ti, the institute and the association would probably have quite a bit of influence.
They would rember his farm and feel sowhat annoyed.
Within the bounds of the rules, it was normal to give him a hard ti—it would be the sa if he were in their shoes.
How could one expect unbiased treatnt if they felt animosity?
Besides, there was no point in arguing about such a matter; a late notice was still a notice.
What more could you do?
He hadn’t actually paid much attention to the directory, but now, hearing how Xiao Zhao spoke of it, it seed rather important.
Besides, being nationally recognized would surely elevate the reputation of Wan City cattle, right?
So he responded with a laugh, “They’ve inford us anyway, and there’s really nothing here to prepare for.
Let them co and see!
What’s there to worry about?”
Xiao Zhao was indignant on his behalf, “I’m just angry!
When the departnt visits, it might at least make the news on television or the papers, which could boost our reputation, surely better than any advertisent.
If we prepare a bit more, we can only benefit…
at least it can’t hurt, right?”
Yan Fei had to reassure him, “We don’t plan to falsify anything.
What we have is what we show.
If it’s late, then it’s late, what’s there to fear?
By the way, how many days till they co?”
“Who knows exactly when they’ll arrive, they have other places to check too!” Xiao Zhao responded.
“Maybe they’ll get delayed a couple of days sowhere else, or maybe they’ll leave quickly if so places don’t et the standards.
Anyway, they should be here soti within the next couple of weeks.”
“Well, there’s still ti.
I’m not worried, so why are you making such a fuss?
It’s like the emperor is not in a hurry but his eunuch is,” Yan Fei relaxed and joked before continuing.
“Better tell quickly, did Secretary Jiao give any instructions?”
