40: Chapter 40 Early Preparations 40: Chapter 40 Early Preparations A brief heavy rain washed the mountain village clean.
Although there was still some stench in the air, the chirping of bugs and croaking of frogs in the mountains became even more intense.
Wu Xiaoyu received a call from the boss in town, saying that the nets would be delivered by the afternoon, which made him very happy.
As long as the nets were installed and some simple chicken coops made of wooden sticks and corn stalks were set up, the chicken farm could officially be put into use.
So, early in the morning, he pulled his cousin Wu Dushan into the mountains, intending to discuss the net installation method with him.
Although his cousin didn’t understand why he had to raise chickens in the back mountain, since he had agreed to help, he naturally wouldn’t shirk his responsibility.
When the two of them arrived at the foot of the mountain, they were shocked by the scene before them.
The large area of forest contracted by Wu Xiaoyu, after being washed by the rain, was already bare.
All kinds of weeds pulled up by the villagers had been washed down to the foot of the mountain, leaving only some green buds.
The two couldn’t help but smile at each other.
Damn it, the power of the people is indeed immense.
If the Wu family had to clean up those weeds, it would take at least two or three days to finish.
However, these villagers, eager to dig up ginseng, cleared it all out in less than an afternoon, and didn’t charge a penny.
What kind of spirit is this?
When we get rich in the future, we must not forget these villagers who ‘selflessly contributed’!
The two walked around the forest, roughly determining the area of thirty acres, and then discussed the issue of installing the nets.
At this time, people had already begun to come up the mountain one after another.
Wu Xiaoyu asked helplessly, “Brother, why are these people still not giving up?”
“Give up?
Easier said than done!
You dug up some ginseng and made so much money; how could they not be jealous?”
Jealous?
Who knows what these people will think if they see us making money from raising chickens?
Wu Xiaoyu sighed, shouting to the people coming up the mountain, “Be careful, there are wolves and wild boars in the mountains!”
Niu Manyou, who heard his warning, sneered and glanced back at him, coldly saying, “Did you hear that?
He’s trying to scare us.
He’s afraid we’ll dig up ginseng in the mountains!”
“I’m telling you, Wu family’s young man, wolves and wild boars are scary, but poverty is scarier!” An old man with a scruffy beard, wearing tattered clothes, also said, grinning.
Seeing these people being so ungrateful, his own brother kindly reminding them had become a hindrance, Wu Dushan retorted, “Go up the mountain all you want; no one is stopping you!”
There are already many poisonous snakes in the mountains, and now it’s summer, when they’re more active.
Wu Xiaoyu was worried that something might happen to them, which is why he was advising them.
But since they were so unappreciative, he didn’t say any more.
After coming down the mountain, Wu Xiaoyu and Wu Dushan began transporting the corn stalks from their home up the mountain.
Wu Youliang wanted to help but was stopped by Wu Xiaoyu.
Although his illness had improved a lot, he hadn’t fully recovered, and he didn’t want him to overexert himself.
The brothers worked hard all morning, carrying all the corn stalks up the mountain, and received many strange looks from the villagers as they went back and forth with the corn stalks.
It was fine for Wu Xiaoyu to be stupid; after all, fools sometimes get lucky and find ginseng.
But why did Wu Dushan have to join in his nonsense?
Amid the villagers’ endless doubts and ridicule, a small truck loaded with goods drove into the village.
The kids, who had never seen a car before, immediately surrounded it and blocked the driver’s way.
“Hey kids, do you know where Wu Xiaoyu lives?” The driver opened the door and asked.
The kids were curiously patting the front of the car, ignoring him.
Luckily, a lad from the Wu family heard that someone was looking for his uncle, and quickly ran towards Wu Xiaoyu’s house.
The boy ran to Wu Xiaoyu’s house, seeing the whole family and Wu Dushan’s family sitting together eating chicken.
He started drooling and forgot about the driver’s message.
“Mingming…
come over and eat with us!” his mother Wang Aifeng said upon seeing him.
After Wu Youliang asked him to sit down and start eating chicken, he said with a smile, “You little rascal, you have a keen nose!”
It was only then that Wu Mingming remembered he was supposed to deliver a message.
He quickly wiped his mouth with his sleeve and said, “Uncle, I came to tell you; someone came with a big bounce car to catch you.
Run quickly!”
Catch someone?
A room full of people stared at him blankly.
Wu Mingming reaffirmed, “Really, just like on TV.
They’re driving a four-wheeled car!”
A four-wheeled car?
Wu Xiaoyu still didn’t get it.
The phone rang, and when he answered, he realized it was the delivery guy.
Putting down his chopsticks, Wu Xiaoyu rushed out.
When he saw the delivery boss, he jokingly said, “Brother, the road to this village is really hard to drive on.
You should cover my vehicle repair costs!”
Wu Xiaoyu knew he was joking and casually replied, “Sure!
No problem!”
He led the delivery boss home, checked the goods, settled the balance, and the boss, smelling the delicious meat aroma, couldn’t help but ask, “Brother, what kind of meat are you cooking?
It smells so good!”
Wu Xiaoyu immediately invited him inside, but the pot of chicken was nearly empty, with Wu KanKan and Wu Mingming eating directly from it.
“Excuse me!” Wu Xiaoyu said, a bit embarrassed.
However, the boss didn’t mind at all.
He took some meat with chopsticks, put it in his mouth, and immediately felt an indescribable burst of flavor.
The two kids pouted and glared at the stranger eating their meat, but the boss couldn’t help praising the taste and asked, “What kind of chicken is this?”
“Just an ordinary local chicken,” his mother said with a smile.
Ordinary local chicken?
With this flavor?
The boss didn’t believe it, thinking it might be some secret recipe.
Not wanting to pry, he asked when Wu Xiaoyu’s chickens would be ready for market.
He wanted to buy some then.
The unintentional words of the boss made Wang Aifeng more optimistic about her son’s chicken farming prospects.
They hadn’t even started yet, and there was already demand.
It seemed they wouldn’t have to worry about sales!
After seeing off the boss, Wu Xiaoyu and his cousin carried the nets up the mountain.
The villagers, seeing this, knew he was serious about this undertaking.
Some were worried for him, while others secretly rejoiced, thinking that even if he made some money from selling ginseng, wouldn’t he just lose it all in these mountains?
