309: Chapter 29: Tidal Brachiosaurus_1 309: Chapter 29: Tidal Brachiosaurus_1 “Xiao Fei, why are you so happy today?”
“Mmm, mmm, mmm, yeah!
I’m always in great spirits when I face good news!
The Teacher’s Day is coming soon, so I planned a visit to my wife, how could my mood be bad!”
Almost everyone in the cow farm can’t resist asking Yan Fei why he was so happy that day.
Too bad I can’t tell you guys!
While answering with giggles, Yan Fei was ecstatic inside.
After having his al, he rode his bicycle into town to buy clothes,— The last set of ‘work clothes’ was torn to shreds when he transford the previous night.
Now, he goes into town wearing long-sleeve tops and long pants.
Upon arriving at a familiar clothing store opposite the police station, the short, rotund owner, who was serving other custors, greeted him.
“Yan Fei, here to buy clothes?”
With a wave of his hand towards the hanging vest and trousers, Yan Fei asked, “Uncle Tong, how much for this vest and trousers?”
Upon seeing this, Boss Tong said, “That pair of trousers won’t do.
They’ll tear after wearing them for so ti if you work in them.
They’re from a different seller.
You should get these ones I had made, they’re not only cheaper but also more durable.
A pair of shorts is three yuan, and the shirt is the sa, six yuan in total.”
Yan Fei was indifferent.
“Alright, I’ll take these then, I want…”
Before he could finish speaking, Boss Tong interjected, “Now that you’ve beco a small boss, you’re an adult as well, why do you still wear vests all the ti?
I have tailor-made short sleeves, do you want to try it?
I guarantee they’re very durable!
It’s convenient like the vest.
If you buy it with the shorts, I’ll only charge six yuan.
Do you want one?”
The custor next to him was unhappy.
“Boss, you told it was five yuan for one, but you’re selling sets of two for six yuan to others.
Isn’t your business unfair?”
With a swift turn of his head, Boss Tong replied, “Didn’t you hear him calling Uncle Tong?
If you call that as well, I will give you the sa price!”
That custor imdiately shut up.
Unlike Heizi, this person couldn’t swallow his pride over a few yuan and call soone his age ‘uncle’.
If it were Heizi, he would have retorted to Boss Tong, “If I call you uncle, will you give a discount of two yuan?”
Without missing a beat, Yan Fei took out over a hundred yuan from his pocket.
“I’ll take it then.
I wear out clothes quickly, so I have to buy more.
Six yuan for a set…
Uncle Tong, get twenty sets!”
With a stunned look on his face, Uncle Tong replied, “I don’t have that many.
What do you need so many for?
You can co back to buy more after you’ve worn these out.
I’ll give you five sets for now.
Who buys clothes like you do?
There will be new styles soon.”
Alright then!
Five sets it is.
As Uncle Tong was packing the clothes, Yan Fei was still looking around.
“This pair of sandals, I’ll take it!
I’ll wear it to school.
Hmm, these slippers seem handy…”
Uncle Tong handed him the packed clothes and watched him trying on the sandals with a smile.
“All these are factory goods, just looks fancier.
I’m planning to learn from you, organize the forr mbers of our labor service company, and sell clothes that we make ourselves.”
After Yan Fei had bought his clothes and shoes and returned ho, he found two small wooden boards and whittled them into the shape of shoe soles with a small axe.
He made a twine into a Y-shape, bored three small holes into the wooden boards, and threaded the twine through them.
Just like that, a pair of wooden shoes was ready.
He tried them on and found them quite satisfactory.
He put them on and went out.
What he had seen in the clothing store was a pair of super simple slippers.
The difference being the store’s ones had a plastic base, but he thought that wouldn’t be durable, so he made his own with wooden soles.
He did a round in the cattle ranch and as expected, everyone was intrigued.
“Xiao Fei, what kind of shoes are those?”
Heizi, paraded his vast knowledge with a look of heartache.
“Aren’t these the wooden shoes worn by the Japanese kids on TV?
Brother Fei, Brother Fei, I didn’t expect you to be soone who worships foreign things.
I’m so disappointed!”
Yan Fei rolled his eyes.
“What do you know?
This was invented by our ancestors.
Haven’t you heard the poem?
‘Pity the wooden shoes’ prints in the patches of green moss, the entrance door hasn’t been knocked for a long ti; spring beauty is everywhere and cannot be shut off, one branch of red apricot blooms over the wall.’ That ‘wooden shoes’ ntioned is called wooden clogs, which is what I’m wearing right now, understand?”
After finishing his speech and feeling quite proud, he walked off, leaving behind the words, “I’m planning to go to the provincial city in the next few days.
When the students are off school in the afternoon, you carry on with the ticket sales!
Collect the good ones and store them with cow dung, we can discuss it when I return.”
Heizi watched him go with a dumbfounded expression and took a while to wake up.
“Poser, such a poser!
He plans to go to the provincial city and pose till the heavens!”
Upon turning around and seeing a few people holding back their laughter, he shouted, “Why are you laughing?
Later, I’ll also find two wooden planks and make a pair for myself.
What’s the big deal in posing, anyone can do that!”
Yan Fei then went to the construction site where the large shed was being build.
So builders were flipping and drying brick blocks there!
He checked the progress and left so instructions, “No need to build the small house for now, let’s discuss it with Uncle Ming once I’m back from the provincial city.
If the mud bricks are dry, you can start building the wall!”
The holiday begins tomorrow, so it’s still early to go to the provincial city at the mont.
There’s no rush to learn about greenhouse vegetable growing techniques either.
Of course, the current task was to enter Dinosaur World and catch a glimpse of those massive mountains and rivers to appreciate the majesty of the dinosaur era.
Before entering, he turned and gazed at the Dinosaur World.
However, this glance almost made him unable to look away.
With an excited look on his face, he vanished.
A Brachiosaurus, what does it take for it to be considered a Brachiosaurus?
It surely must be sothing like this!
A pair of legs so massive that it would take a full embrace of two people to hold; A long neck extending to a head that was not much smaller than the neck.
A swaying tail at the rear, resembling a Camarasaurus but much larger.
Just how big was it?
If you were to place such a dinosaur in the middle of a basketball court, if it were to lower its head, it would touch the one basketball hoop, and with a flick of its tail, it would knock over the hoop on the other side.
A basketball court, where dozens of people usually run around, wouldn’t be large enough for this massive dinosaur to turn around.
At the mont, four or five such massive dinosaurs were slowly walking along the shoreline, continuously taking clusters of fresh leaves from the trees along the shore into their mouths.
As soon as Yan Fei appeared, he landed directly on the back of one of the Brachiosauruses.
The dinosaur rely shuddered slightly before completely ignoring the tiny creature on its back.
He was indeed tiny in comparison.
The weight of a human body was negligible to this Goliath of nature.
The dinosaur probably felt that it was superfluous to even shake its body.
This was a Futalognkosaurus, a kind of dinosaur that could reach up to thirty ters long and weigh several tons – a colossal king of the land.
Virtually ignoring the colossal being’s indifference towards him, Yan Fei stood on the vast back of the Futalognkosaurus, proudly declaring, “Everything here belongs to , from now on, I appoint you as my mount!”
The colossus continued to pick and eat the fresh leaves leisurely, completely oblivious to the little creature on its back who was making a fuss.
