Chapter 1125: 1101. Infiltrate the interior
Lun Chuan was also quite curious.
His burly cousin Zhang Yanping looked like he had a lot of strength, but his task for the day was to watch live streams and play on his phone.
anwhile, his moderately-built cousin Wu Lei was out at the Riverside Beach diligently feeding the cattle.
This arrangent didn’t seem to align at all with Song Tan’s "making the most of things" personality.
Song Tan genuinely hadn’t expected Wu Lei to have a true brotherly side, and so she explained, "My cousin Leilei’s field of study is quite average, and when it cos to work, he can’t reach high or stoop low. My uncle plans to start raising cattle and sheep next year, so he wants my cousin to start a business at ho. The whole family is learning at the Riverside Beach."
This explanation sounded plausible at first, but Zhang Chen didn’t buy it at all—how many young people nowadays aren’t striving elsewhere? Just counting the surrounding villages, how many young people are actually farming back ho?
His brother had been able to date, well, that soone... anyway, with Juliet, which proved he had normal thinking, so why would staying at ho be his choice?
But he kept quiet, fearing he might say sothing unpleasant and cause trouble for his brother. However, Lun Chuan, not having heard anything, asked on his behalf:
"I see he’s very young, is he really willing?"
"Why wouldn’t he be?"
Song Tan said matter-of-factly, "Next spring, we’ll buy calves and lambs from my family and start raising them freely. You take them out to graze every day, and once they’re ready to sell, I’ll introduce buyers who offer high prices... "
Teaching soone to fish to this extent is quite considerate, don’t you think?
"Moreover, my cousin Leilei has been working for two years without saving a penny, and my uncle has only managed to save twenty to thirty thousand. Nowadays, that’s not even enough for a decent down paynt... how many years would he have to work for to save enough money?"
"It’s better to boldly try while he’s young."
Thinking back on Wu Lei’s transformation over the past six months, she sincerely praised, "He’s a bit simple-minded, but sincere. He’s very diligent with raising cattle and sheep — there’s no cutting corners. Such honest work doesn’t have much of a future, but livestock farming is quite stable."
Recalling the ti they harvested rice and he carried luggage to stay and had sothing to say about it, it was clear he lacked emotional intelligence or intellectual smarts.
But now, with the transformation brought by the cattle pen, while he still lacks those smarts, his mindset is much more stable.
Isn’t this a credit to Lao Song’s family?
Song Tan was quite proud.
The only drawback is that free-range cattle and sheep take longer to mature. But with the higher prices, the long paynt cycle aside, small-scale farming carries less risk, so there’s really nothing to worry about!
Now, not just Zhang Chen, but even Qin Yun and the others felt envious—
"You’re practically spoon-feeding them—when the beef and lamb are ready, make sure to let
know, you can sell them to !"
"Yes, yes, yes, also sell us so of your family’s cattle and sheep!"
Even if they can’t get Lao Song’s family’s livestock, they can surely rely on their relatives, right?
Song Tan was quite happy too, "Alright! Once we have them, I’ll notify Lun Chuan, and you can tell him directly how much you want then."
At this, Qin Yun and the others glanced at Lun Chuan, who was leisurely driving the tricycle, and couldn’t help but feel a sense of joy—
It’s always handy to have connections!
Their promising brother has now beco part of Lao Song’s family shopping network, right?
...
The tricycle turned from the smooth asphalt road onto the cent road, then twisted and turned slowly downward, finally revealing a vast expanse of the Riverside Beach.
It was already past three in the afternoon, and the river water gently rippled with the wind, sprinkled with dazzling golden rays cascading down, glittering and vast.
Large swaths of dried yellow reeds by the riverside swayed leisurely in the wind. Vaguely black and green-coated wild ducks could be seen diving in and out among them, mingling with Lao Song’s duck flock, shortly diving into the water, revealing their plump and pointy tails.
"Goose Goose Goose..."
Big White and Goose Sister were cruising around with a certain stance, clearly already taking on the duties of herding ducks.
Looking at the whole grassland, it was mid-winter, so there was little greenery to be seen. The cattle and sheep were scattered around searching the ground, but they seed in no hurry at all.
On the steep high slopes in the distance, a few goats leaped about, as if they had springs under their feet, stepping on stone piles, occasionally letting out short sounds, sounding as joyful as children.
"Damn... "
Qin Yun slowly stood up from the stopped tricycle, staring at the vast expanse of dried and flat Riverside Beach before him, his mind blank, left only with these two all-encompassing words of amazent.
He Kuang was also stunned.
The next second, he opened his phone’s mo, tapping away wildly: "Inspiration’s here, inspiration’s here, let
jot down a few outlines first. The next book will have to feature farming, starting with herding cattle by the river..."
Compared to them, Lun Chuan felt even more shocked.
He’d been to many places before, from south to north, seeing various sceneries. A riverside beach like the one before his eyes was actually not uncommon outside.
But for so reason, it was precisely the atmosphere here—tranquil, serene, and pleasing... truly a rare fen shui!
He didn’t know this was the effect of the gentle spiritual energy enveloping the place over ti with evaporated water mist, but being sensitive as he was, he already felt the comfort.
At this point, he looked at the dry grass stems beneath his feet, freely strolling to the side.
If even he felt this way, the group beside him was even more thrilled, instantly whipping out their phones!
The four firefighters and Wo Jing exchanged glances, also marveling: "If our family’s dogs were to co here to retire, just think how carefree they’d be... No wonder they seed in such good shape here before."
Let alone dogs, even humans wanted to co over.
In the next mont, Zhu Xin pulled out a whistle and softly blew it, and suddenly four dogs bolted out of the swaying reeds!
Leading the pack, Duoduo ran gracefully and swiftly, ears flapping, its short pale golden fur shining in the sunlight like being cloaked in a layer of hazy golden veil!
Seeing it like this, who would believe it was close to death a few months ago?
Only in this vast Riverside Beach could they run unbridled, freely! This was the exuberance that couldn’t be expressed when the tricycle carried them here before!
Here, they were truly free and happy!
"How wonderful..."
Everyone took out their phones to record videos, their voices tinged with joyful sobs:
"Look! Look at our Cang Er/Yingjun/Princess... so happy!"
They recorded videos, slowly squatting down with arms wide open.
And as the excited dogs charged over, everyone stumbled a bit, then without hesitation, hugged their dogs tightly, including Duoduo, which dove right into Zhu Xin’s arms.
Dog barks, goose calls, cattle and sheep responding, along with hearty laughter from the young people...
At this mont, the sounds echoed freely between the Riverside Beach and the cliffs.
