Because of the ’enthusiasm’ at the Cattle Racing Tournant, and considering that his wife was still there, Yan Fei didn’t participate in the upcoming events—just showing off a little bit was enough. If he attracted too much attention, what if audiences were too enthusiastic and his wife decided they should sleep in separate beds?
It was just as well since he could spend endless ti on phone calls, so not participating fit perfectly.
Director Liu of the at Processing Factory, Boss Li of a small cattle farm on the outskirts, Chairman Dong of the association, including Director Niu of the cent factory and such... basically, Yan Fei called each of them to say hello and chat casually if nothing happened.
These people are not within the system but have one advantage: they’re all well-connected locals and have plenty of inside information.
No matter how populated the city area is, it’s still limited. The people Yan Fei connects with have all lived locally for decades. To et three or five people a year, how many would they have t in total?
Boss Yan kept quiet about it at ho when he went out to develop his ventures. Many people are guessing what his plans are because he left so suddenly, and now it’s all a blur—they originally thought he had encountered so problems and was preparing to leave. But seeing the news, they knew he threw ten million dollars into major developnt at ho.
Now, when Yan Fei made calls, they had plenty to talk about.
They chatted from morning through lunch to the afternoon without stopping—everyone knew that the Cow flower company’s success was inevitable. Even if Yan Fei left everything aside, as long as the beef quality was ensured, their position was unshakable.
Yan Fei almost gathered all the information he wanted. The people he knew were all reputable businessn and naturally disliked those who disrupted rules. They all acknowledged his capabilities, and so were curious to see how far he could go.
In the end, they were disappointed because, over the next few days, they didn’t hear any news.
...
"Yan Xiaofei, are you going to work or what?" Xu Xiaoyan ran out of the house with a pack of puppies to find Yan Fei who was strolling with hawks outside.
The two hawks had gotten a bit plump, and Yan Fei feared they couldn’t fly in the future unless they stayed active. The string of puppies behind Xu Xiaoyan was even plumper. These little ones were trained since childhood by Er Bao, a brother of Chen Yingjun, and now obediently followed the girl, lining up in two rows, chubby enough to be quite the scene on the farm.
"I’m going, I’ll leave shortly." Yan Fei said while luring the hawks to follow him with strips of at. "Are you ready?"
"Just waiting on you!" Xu Xiaoyan nodded.
"Then let’s go!" Yan Fei glanced at Chen Yingjun, who was babysitting in the distance. "Old Chen, I’ll be heading out in a few days. You guys keep an eye on the ho!"
"No worries!" Old Chen responded confidently.
"I’m telling you guys, learn English faster. Don’t always make run errands for everything." Yan Fei shouted dissatisfiedly, then turned to pack his things in the room.
Heizi and their progress in learning English made Yan Fei extrely dissatisfied. They weren’t even up to the standards of hard laborers in Jurassic World.
It’s said that Mandarin is supposed to be the hardest language, right? Those laborers picked it up and could communicate in two or three months, and so fast learners managed in about a month.
Old Chen and Heizi, however, have been at it for nearly a month and still mostly rely on gestures when talking outside.
Actually, Yan Fei knows that those laborers learned quickly due to survival pressure, but he wasn’t happy—mainly because if they didn’t learn well, he couldn’t leave for the long term.
...
The little Ford was driving along the road, with empty pastures and farms on both sides, where few cars were encountered. The scenery seed pleasant at first but felt a bit barren after a while with no other sensations.
"Are you still coming with to Skar City?" Xu Xiaoyan asked Yan Fei.
The two of them were heading to Skar City for an auction, specifically for a small iron mine and a bauxite mine auction. The information was already announced in the papers earlier, and the deposit and application from Cow flower farm were already submitted, just waiting to bid today.
"Yes, I’ll drop you off and first get you settled in the hotel." Yan Fei said while driving, looking around to confirm there was no one before the car suddenly shifted places.
Seeing the surrounding cattle, Xu Xiaoyan wasn’t surprised. When the car stopped, she got out and said, "Be careful out there, just startle them a bit for fun, don’t cause any big trouble."
"No problem!" said Yan Fei as he saw Number One bringing so people over, waving them aside when they arrived. "Go do what you need to do. I’m just wandering around."
As the two wandered around the pasture, Yan Fei suddenly thought of sothing: "What do you think about having a few of these guys leave to help oversee the farm?"
Xu Xiaoyan was startled: "Are you crazy?"
"Hehe!" Yan Fei smiled sheepishly at her. "I was just thinking."
Yan Fei was just casually ntioning it, whereas Xu Xiaoyan began considering after speaking: "If you can ensure that they don’t reveal anything when they go out, then it should be fine. But this isn’t realistic. Those people are honest now, but who knows what they’ll think when they’re outside... You better give up on this idea, there are plenty of people outside, as long as we offer high salaries, you’re afraid no one will work for us!"
"Mm, mm!" Yan Fei nodded in agreent with his wife. "I just think that Heizi and the others are stuck on the farm now and can only take turns going out for fun. I’m afraid they’ll get restless."
