As long as you lads can keep it up.” The more Yan Fei listened, the more depressed he beca, but just as he was about to leave, an idea popped into his head.
“Well, Old Gao, you better watch out.
If these guys are going to follow you and learn nothing after half a year, they won’t even be able to beat a couple of little thugs.
If word gets out that they learned everything from you, don’t be afraid of losing face!”
Noticing that Old Gao’s expression was rather hostile, Heizi yelled at Yan Fei: “Brother Fei, aren’t you just sowing discord here?
That’s quite unfair, isn’t it!”
Zhang Hui quickly reasoned with Old Gao: “Don’t look at , I’m just following along to flex my muscles, I need to get back to work soon!
Just train the others properly…”
Heizi burst out in anger, “Old Zhang, that’s not cool!
Are you planning on abandoning your mates?”
Yan Fei didn’t care about their drama.
This group was always bursting with energy.
Now that they ate well and had nothing to do after work, they had energy to spare.
They were free to kick up a fuss if they wanted!
When he reached the entrance and saw several people busily registering cows, Xiang Rui stopped him: “Boss Yan, got so free ti now?
Look at you, your cattle farm is expanding and you’re still unwilling to change even the electrical wiring.
In the future, when your need for electricity increases, do you think that the small wires will be enough?”
Considering Xiang Rui’s words, Yan Fei felt she was right, so he humbly asked for advice.
“So, Auntie, what should I do?”
Since Xiang Rui brought the topic up, it was clear she had a plan in mind.
She imdiately replied: “You should estimate your future power usage, apply to the Power Managent Office for a transformation and get a private line.
This way, you won’t have to worry about power outages.”
“Alright, I’ll call and inquire first, then go to the Power Managent Office.” Yan Fei readily agreed.
After calling Mayor Chen’s office to ask for advice, he went directly to the Power Managent Office.
If it weren’t for considering the long-term developnt, Yan Fei wouldn’t want to go through the hassle.
Currently, they were getting electricity from the station, where despite only having two doorn who didn’t have to stop the trains, they had dedicated lines.
Power outages occurred much less frequently than in the town, and electricity was also cheaper.
However, as the cattle farm continues to grow, getting a dedicated electrical line would ensure the Power Managent Office wouldn’t cut power off haphazardly.
The only downside was that the rates wouldn’t be as favorable.
Fortunately, Yan Fei deed these as insignificant expenses.
Upon reaching the electricity office, even before asking anyone, the local power manager was already waiting for him.
As soon as Yan Fei heard the quote, he made a suggestion: “Why not switch to a larger transforr?
What’s the use of this fifty-one?
I want one hundred, two hundred… it’s bad to say two fifty…
just get a four-hundred one.”
The manager looked perplexed: “You are just running a cattle farm.
How can you use so much electricity?
Even with added sewage treatnt equipnt, it won’t need so much!”
“Sewage treatnt equipnt?” This ti Yan Fei was the one confused.
“It treats dirty and stinky water before discharging it so it won’t pollute rivers and water sources,” the manager explained with pride.
“Who says that public-funded feasts are bad?
If I hadn’t attended one, I wouldn’t have known this!
Everyone cares about environntal protection now.
So businesses need to install sewage treatnt facilities, otherwise they aren’t allowed to start operation.
Look at West River – just because the paper factory didn’t install a sewage system, the water got polluted.
Right now, your cattle farm is small, so you don’t need it.
If you were to raise thousands of cattle, their waste would contaminate the river.”
The electricity departnt had always been flush with cash.
The local power manager had thus been on many ‘experiential learning’ expeditions, and so was more knowledgeable than most.
After understanding this, Yan Fei retorted: “On that basis, I should definitely upgrade to a four-hundred transforr to save from troubles later, right?”
“No, you don’t understand, you won’t make use of even a one hundred one,” the manager explained.
“Even your sewage equipnt would just require a simple one.
All your waste is just manure and waste water, not industrial pollution.”
Yan Fei queried: “Do you also know about this?
What does this have to do with your electricity departnt?”
“How can it be unrelated?” The manager chuckles.
“After our learning experience, when a business wants to install a transforr, we encourage them to install a bigger one!
Otherwise, why did we learn all this?
Imagine, if a big transforr is used, the line costs will increase, which ans our service fees will also increase, and we can charge more for electricity in the future.
I’m telling you this in strict confidence, I will deny it if it gets beyond this room!”
After saying that and seeing Yan Fei was still puzzled, the manager explained: “I just got a call from Mayor Chen.
He said we have to look after our local enterprises, and that you will have to use more electricity in future.
If it weren’t for him, not just four hundred, even if you said you wanted one thousand, I’d dare to give it to you.”
“It’s fine, I won’t bla you in future if we don’t need it.
Just install a four hundred for .
In the future, I may need to do other things as well that will definitely use more electricity.
You can’t expect to go buy machines and only choose the ones that use diesel!” Yan Fei added with his own consideration.
By the end of the month, more than a hundred cows will have to be slaughtered.
The weather was getting hotter, and if the beef couldn’t be sold, they may need to make beef jerky.
Making beef jerky would certainly not be the sa as the small-scale sun-drying process he was used to; they would need drying equipnt.
Even without researching, he knew that this would consu a lot of electricity.
To prepare in advance, he could get whatever equipnt he wanted in the future without worrying about insufficient electricity.
