Chapter 313: 313. Dog’s Estrus Period_1 Chapter 313: 313. Dog’s Estrus Period_1 The weather grew hot, and the days seemed to stretch even longer.
Over at the old house, ever since the foreman had dinner at Song Tan’s place, it was as if he was injected with chicken blood, having his workers start early in the morning and take a break by 10:00 am.
They would resume work after 3:00 pm.
The scattered schedule made it uncertain whether they were paid more or not, but everyone seemed to be working with increased vigor; every couple of days when you’d take a look, it seemed like the main framework of the house was about to be completed.
Song Youde was shocked!
For an old man his age, he had never witnessed the speed of real mechanical construction, and now his own house was being built so quickly!
The old man was also worried as he murmured to Song Sancheng, “This construction team is working so fast, can we rely on them? I hope they don’t make our house flimsy.”
Song Sancheng had worked at construction sites before, but the speed and materials of those large-scale construction sites were another story…
He, too, had some doubts and would join the old man to check on the construction every now and then.
What a good job!
The foreman, highly recommended by Zhao Fangyuan, was doing a solid job with the house!
From bricks to cement, nothing substandard was used. The walls were built sturdy and thick, the cement smoothed out cleanly and slickly. The debris generated from house construction was gathered neatly to one side by excavators every day–
Wasn’t this work more efficient than the huffing and puffing of old and young from the village coming to help out?
Song Youde could not stop smiling.
If the pace was always this fast, wouldn’t his old house be renovated even quicker?
After all, he didn’t need such a large space nor anything fancy, just enough for the old couple to live comfortably.
He thought it was fast, but Song Tan felt it was slow.
It was indeed the hot weather that had everyone bathing more frequently, and even though the room next to the perimeter wall had turned into a bathroom, it was still inconvenient.
If it were not for the foreman swearing on his life that they could move in before July, combined with Zhao Fangyuan daily flooding the WeChat group with pictures and videos of various home furnishings, encouraging her to finalize the final plan for the convenience of simultaneous house building and renovation… Song Tan herself would have been filled with doubts.
And it was during this time that she received an unexpected phone call:
“Song Tan, it’s your Brother Sun here!”
Sorry, she had too many contacts saved, and it took Song Tan a moment to remember–
It was Sun Shouping from the dog breeding facility, Brother Sun!
She expressed her surprise, “Brother Sun, is there something the matter?”
Little did she know, Sun Shouping had also been ruminating for quite a while.
He sold dogs, but he also felt responsible for them. He was well aware of the conditions of the dogs sold from his facility each year.
If not for Zhang Yanping’s solemn promises and what he had seen with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have easily agreed to let Song Tan take four dogs with good appearances from his facility at such a price.
But it was clearly agreed upon that if the dogs mated or gave birth to puppies, and they didn’t want to keep them, they were supposed to give them back to the facility.
However, after waiting for two or three months, there hadn’t been a peep about the puppies, much less any news about dogs going into heat or mating!
How was that possible?!
Whether it was the Casros or the mastiffs, they were all at least six months old when sold.
Raised plump and sturdy in the facility, they already showed signs of going into heat. Now that it was May, how could they possibly not be in heat?
The more he thought about it, the more doubts he had, and he was starting to wonder–
With the girl being so good at business, could she have lent his dogs out for breeding?
With this thought, he couldn’t hold back any longer and made the call directly.
But at this moment, he was too embarrassed to ask outright, so he asked indirectly, “Song Tan, are those dogs behaving at home? They haven’t caused any trouble, have they?”
“Not at all!” Her precious few were extremely well-behaved. Song Tan adored them so much every day, how could she possibly find fault with them!
She then sincerely expressed her thanks, “Brother Sun, they’re exceptionally obedient and have been a big help. I’ve been thinking about when to have Brother Yanping bring you some local specialties!”
“If you have the time, you could also come to my place for a visit.”
Of course, this was just a polite offer. It would take a good half day’s drive from Huacheng to her place, and her home wasn’t really suitable for entertaining guests, so she was just saying it.
To her surprise, Sun Shouping pondered for a while and actually accepted–
“Alright. Will tomorrow be convenient? Tomorrow, I’ll come over to see the little guys.”
Song Tan: …With you asking like that, it’s naturally convenient.
The “little guys” he mentioned were now plump and robust, raised on Spiritual Energy, and their size had grown just a bit more.
They might… not quite fit the name “little guys” anymore.
She didn’t think much of it; having visitors was fine, and because there were familiar people from the village in her friend circle, she didn’t share her link directly there.
Her business was somewhat conducted under the cloak of night.
If Brother Sun came over for a meal and some tea, and she gave him some local products in return, even if he didn’t buy this time, he surely wouldn’t miss out next time, right?
Song Tan looked at the progress of the house and estimated her savings-hmm, she had enough for the time being.
But then again, who would ever complain about having too much money, right?
When she mentioned this, Wu Lan just laughed–
“It’s Yanping’s friend, right? His uncle, let’s stew two pieces of meat tomorrow! The kid is honest. Look at our precious few, how obedient and sensible they are! All sold for a bargain! Just 3000 in total.”
After being influenced for some time, Wu Lan was somewhat prepared for high prices.
Now, mentioning that the few dogs cost 3000, everyone was praising her for the good deal, and gradually she no longer felt the pinch of spending the money.
Moreover, recently Old Chen’s daughter brought home a curly-haired dog, claiming it was a Teddy.
The little pooch was rather cute upon arrival, with a round head and body, said to cost over a hundred for grooming.
Yet after two months back in the old home, it’s constant barking was tolerable, but no one knew how to manage its fur, which had grown out long, giving it a parted hairstyle that covered its eyes!
Even with this, Old Chen still said his daughter spent over a thousand on it!
With this comparison, Wu Lan felt that everything about her own precious few was perfect!
Only Song Tan and Zhang Yanping exchanged a glance and thought to themselves: This is bad!
And then, they hurriedly sent a message to Sun Shouping:
[Brother Sun, if my mom asks about the price of the dogs later, just say it was 3000 in total.]
Sun Shouping: …That’s absurd! With the quality, obedience, and intelligence of those dogs, 3000 yuan would be like manna from heaven!
The siblings murmured to each other for a while and, aside from the price, found no other loopholes, finally settling down again.
…
The next morning, bright and early.
It was just after eight when Sun Shouping followed the GPS to their doorstep.
Zhang Yanping had just delivered breakfast to the fishermen by the pond and was surprised to see him, “Why have you come so early? Didn’t you have to set off at five in the morning?”
