Chapter 797: Chapter 797: If You Want to Be Rich, First Raise Pigs
Yu Jingting waited in the car for a while but didn’t see Suizi return. Just as he was about to get out to take a look, he saw Suizi, like a wound-up toy, running back.
"What happened?" Yu Jingting got out of the car, and Suizi darted into his arms.
"Who bullied you?" Yu Jingting immediately sobered up and became sharp.
"Yanan and her husband were fighting, and I was watching. Then, someone pushed me, and then it rained... and then Que Wuyu appeared."
Ever since she had cleared things up with Yu Jingting and payed her past life’s debts in her own way, Suizi had resolved to separate her past life from her current one and even changed how she referred to people.
"Did he harass you?!"
"No, I just saw him, didn’t say a word, and ran away." Suizi bit her lower lip, "I will keep the promise I made you."
Yu Jingting laughed, stroking her hair: "That’s quite a realization. It wasn’t in vain that I held you single-handedly all this time."
"..." What does it have to do with him holding her one-handedly! Suizi bumped her head into his chest, pretending to be dead!
"Okay, get in the car and wait, I’m going to check it out." Yu Jingting, satisfied with his wife’s realization, decided to step in on her behalf.
Suizi got in the car, and Chen He was listening to the car radio.
"Why are you listening to the agricultural broadcast?" Suizi noticed they were discussing a guide on pig farming technology.
"I recently found a great project, and I wanted to discuss it with you and Jingting. I have a friend who works at a livestock breeding farm, and they have a batch of commercial pigs. What do you think about us taking them under contract, raising them, and selling them?"
Chen He is a man single-mindedly set on making money. As long as he sees potential profits, regardless of the size of the deal, he’s willing to meddle.
"I have studied the current pork prices. As long as we don’t have an epidemic outbreak, we are guaranteed to make a profit."
Suizi thought about it and nodded.
"It’s feasible. But do you have confidence in the technical aspect? As the saying goes, wealth does not count if it’s spent on fur. Pig farming can be very profitable, but the precondition is that the pigs have to be well-fed and disease-free. If there’s an outbreak, we could lose our entire investment."
"Don’t worry, I’ll let you in on a secret." Chen He, excited at the prospect of making money, patted his son’s head.
"My son’s aunt works at an agricultural university. They’ve developed a new type of feed that hasn’t hit the market yet. It’s a high-protein feed with growth hormones and other stuff that can prevent diseases and stimulate appetite, producing big fat pigs!"
Upon hearing the words "big fat", Chen Tong immediately sat up straight, ears perked up.
Suizi slapped her forehead in realization.
Indeed, there was a type of feed that revolutionized domestic farming just a couple of years ago. Before its introduction, farming couldn’t be scaled up because pigs were being fed rice bran or pig vegetables, and it took them a long time to grow.
After the new feed was introduced, the time it took for pork to reach the market was greatly reduced and the pigs grew faster.
The reason Suizi remembered this particular event so vividly was because, back in the day before she slimmed down, she was chubby and often teased as if she had been eating pig food to grow.
"So it turns out that this pig feed was developed by your relative’s school - can we get permission to use it? It hasn’t gone into production yet, has it?"
"They have already succeeded in small-scale trials. We can get permission to use it if we apply when it is mass-produced. They need data too, so it’s highly beneficial for us to cooperate with them. Suizi, do you also think pig farming is a good idea?" Seeing an opportunity in Suizi’s words, Chen He eagerly began promoting the pig feed.
"This feed is extremely efficient. A small spoonful at a time is all it takes, and the pigs’ weight increases rapidly. If we collaborate with their laboratory, we can get it at cost price. We might not even have to pay for it at all. However, there’s one catch: if all the pigs die from eating it, we will lose everything."
Doing business is like this, high risk comes with high returns. Chen He dares to consider what others do not, although he’s not quite sure himself, he still seeks advice from Suizi and Yu Jingting, the two elite students.
"It sounds feasible initially; I will discuss it further with Jingting when we get home, and I will give you an answer tomorrow." Suizi always likes to leave room for maneuvering in her conversations, but Chen He could tell from her tone that there was a high probability that this deal would go through.
He started rubbing his hands in excitement.
"I always knew that you guys who have received education have a different perspective. We should have all our Chen family relatives learn from you and Jingting. They are so short-sighted. They laugh at me as soon as they hear about pig farming. Hah, there’s no indication on the money that it has been earned from pigs. It’s not tainted with pig dung. The money is earned purely by our capabilities. Why are there superior and inferior ways to make it?"
Suizi only smiled and said nothing. Thinking about those self-proclaimed intellectuals in the old Chen family was as good as eating shit, it was better not to mention them.
"Dad, will you really gain weight if you eat pig feed?" Chen Tong asked.
"Yes, don’t you remember what you saw at your aunt’s experimental site? The pigs they’re raising there are much fatter than the ones outside."
Chen Tong lowered his eyes, responding mechanically without emotion, "Oh, I remember now. Dad, can you take me to Aunt’s in the afternoon? I miss her a bit."
"Sure, I also have some errands to run this afternoon. Just remember not to mess around in your Aunt’s laboratory and don’t trouble her, okay?"
"Hmm, I’ll remember."
Suizi looked at Chen Tong talking to his father and a thought flashed through her mind. The voice in her subconscious was so fast that it was fleeting and she couldn’t catch hold of it.
Yu Jingting returned, followed by a cursing Liu Yanan.
"You skinny bastard! We’re getting divorced once we get home!" Liu Yanan cursed, got into the car, and Suizi didn’t think much of it.
"What started the fight again?", Suizi asked.
"He’s just a fool. Even mentioning him is bad luck."
Liu Yanan came to the hospital today, and Shen Jun indirectly insulted Suizi and Yu Jingting. All because Yu Jingting had splashed paint on him the day before.
Unable to contain her anger, Liu Yanan countered him. After their exchange, Shen Jun abruptly changed the topic and asked Liu Yanan to borrow money from Suizi.
Liu Yanan was completely taken aback by his shamelessness.
The insults had been so harsh, and he didn’t even try to create a transition, but directly asked her to borrow money from Suizi.
"This time, I was the one who initiated the fight... I couldn’t hold it in." Liu Yanan didn’t regret it one bit.
It wasn’t respectable to hit someone in public, but when pushed to the edge, one doesn’t think about that anymore.
"I can’t, I can’t bear it anymore. I can’t continue like this with him. I don’t even care how my colleagues see me. I don’t even want to pretend anymore. Whoever wants to be filial can be, I’m filing for divorce directly."
Yu Jingting whistled, well well, not bad at all~
"Have you thought it through?", Suizi asked," Divorce is not a small matter, it involves many aspects. Don’t you need to make preparations?"
At first glance, it seemed as if she was suggesting a reconciliation. Afraid that Liu Yanan might misunderstand Suizi’s indirect speech, Yu Jingting translated for her:
"What my wife means is, have you transferred all your money?"
"There’s not much money. Just a television my mom gave me as a dowry when I got married and some jewelry."
"Call home and get your family to collect them ASAP. If you’re too late, it might be too late."
