Chapter 56 Temporary Accommodation

  At this time, the farm workers were preparing to get off work and saw Xiao Ping pulling back a cart of chickens. They all immediately surrounded him. Wang Dapao's loud voice was the first to sound: "Boss, are you planning to raise chickens? Is it also waiting for the Spring Festival to sell?"

  "These chickens have already reached their full size, even if they are raised until the Spring Festival, they will not grow any bigger." Another worker who had previously managed a chicken farm disagreed with Wang's view and looked at the chickens on the truck: "They are all hens within one year of age, I think the boss wants to raise them for laying eggs!"

  Xiao Ping, who had just gotten off the bus, nodded immediately and said, "That's right, all the chickens on the bus are egg-laying hens. Do you know about the green-shelled eggs from Xishan? The ones I bought back are all green-egg chickens."

  The worker exclaimed in surprise: "This is the green egg chicken! I wanted to raise this kind of chicken back then, but I ran all over Xishan County and couldn't even buy one, but you, boss, have a way!"

  Wang Dapao and others also knew the famous green-shelled eggs, and naturally had a few more points of admiration for Xiao Ping. However, at present, the farm was not prepared, and suddenly having over 500 chickens caused a commotion.

  So many chickens are locked in small cages, and if they don't eat or drink, they will starve to death soon. It's no exaggeration to say that these are all golden egg-laying hens, and a few deaths would be heart-wrenching, so the top priority is to find a place to settle these green-egg chickens.

  Xiao Ping finally came up with an idea, temporarily locking all the chickens in a vegetable greenhouse. The vegetables in this shed were just harvested yesterday and hadn't had time to plant new crops yet, making it the best choice for now.

  Everyone worked together to put all the chickens in the greenhouse. It was too late to prepare feed for the chickens, but clean drinking water was essential. Chickens could go without food for two or three days without starving to death, but if they were cut off from water, they would quickly die of thirst. The worker who first recognized the green egg chicken hurried home and brought back several waterers specifically designed for chickens. These were leftovers from when he used to run a chicken farm, and rural people being frugal had never thrown them away, now they came in handy.

  Several waterers were quickly washed and disinfected with boiling water, filled with clean water, and placed in the temporary chicken coop. Xiao Ping took advantage of when no one was paying attention to add two drops of spiritual liquid to the chickens' drinking water. Don't underestimate these two drops of spiritual liquid, which is enough to guarantee the safety of so many chickens for the next few days.

  These things are trivial and troublesome, especially when it took everyone a lot of time to drive all the more than 500 chickens into the greenhouse. By the time the last chicken was driven into the greenhouse by the black leopard, the sky was already dark. Xiao Ping stood at the door of the greenhouse, watching hundreds of chickens moving around and foraging inside, many of which had already drunk water from the drinking fountain, and couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.

  It's just that the workers who contributed to the water dispenser were a bit uneasy, standing beside Xiao Ping and whispering: "Boss, this big shed is too small, so many chickens crowded together are prone to outbreaks of chicken plague, we'd better hurry up and get the fixed chicken coop ready."

  "You're right." Xiao Ping nodded and said: "I remember your name is Zhao Quan, right? You seem to be quite experienced in raising chickens."

  Zhao Quandao said: "I used to run a chicken farm too, but I didn't expect to encounter bird flu, and over 1,000 chickens were all gone."

  Xiao Ping looked at Zhao Quan and said, "Since that's the case, from now on, you'll be in charge of raising chickens. I'll assign two more people to help you, and you won't have to do anything else. How does that sound?"

  "Great! I love dealing with poultry. Don't worry, I'll take good care of these chickens!"

  "It's settled then." Xiao Ping patted Zhao Quan's shoulder and returned to his small building.

  Zhao Quan was right, the chickens in the greenhouse were too crowded and it was easy to break out of infectious diseases such as chicken plague. However, he had already mixed the spiritual liquid into the chickens' drinking water, so naturally he wouldn't worry about such a thing happening.

  Because it was too late today, Xiao Ping asked Zhou Jun to stay overnight at the farm. Zhou Jun was amazed by the recent changes in the farm and couldn't help but sigh when he saw Xiao Ping return: "You're really capable, this is just two months since you've been gone and the farm has changed so much. If I come back after a year or half a year, I'll definitely not recognize this place."

  "That's for sure!" Xiao Ping said casually in front of his good friend: "Since we're doing something, we should do our best. I finally have this opportunity, and I don't want to waste it easily."

  Zhou Jun nodded in agreement with Xiao Ping's words and gave him a thumbs up. However, he was more interested in the newly renovated small building on the farm. After walking around it, he praised Xiao Ping: "You can even live in a luxurious villa! This house is really good! You can't live in such a big house in the city! I admire you more and more!"

  Xiao Ping and Zhou Jun have known each other for many years, and they also know this guy very well. Upon hearing this, he immediately laughed and said: "You little devil is so praising me, you must have another purpose, speak up, what do you need help with?"

  "Haha... you've seen through me." Zhou Jun smiled awkwardly: "I've got a new girlfriend, this place is pretty good, when I'm free I'll bring her here to play, can you reserve a room for us?"

  Xiao Ping said without hesitation: "Pshaw, is this even worth mentioning? You're here now, just pick a room."

  "Good buddy!" Zhou Jun patted Xiao Ping's shoulder heavily and then smiled slyly: "You now have a house and a career, it's time to find a girlfriend. Do you want me to introduce one for you?"

  Xiao Ping hastily shook his head and said, "Forget it, those few chicks you know are either too muscular or too ugly, my taste isn't that heavy, you can keep them for yourself to enjoy slowly!"

  Xiao Ping's words hit a sore spot, and Zhou Jun said with a hint of resentment: "You know about it too, can't you just keep quiet and give your brother some face?"

  "Haha, you still want to save face? How was I supposed to know?" Xiao Ping ruthlessly struck at Zhou Jun.

  "Hey, hey, you're hitting people but not their faces, that's too much!"

  Xiao Ping and Zhou Jun had a good relationship, but that was just a joke. The two chatted again for a while, then Zhou Jun went to the guest room to sleep, and Xiao Ping also returned to his own room to rest.

  Xiao Ping lay in bed and inadvertently thought of Zhou Jun's words, and couldn't help but compare Li Wanqing, Zhang Yuxin, and Song Lei in his heart, secretly wondering if he had to choose one from the three, who would he invite to play at the farm.

  All three are great beauties, each with a different charm. No matter which one Xiao Ping chooses, the other two will make him feel very sorry. In the end, he thought to himself: "Why choose only one? I want all three!"

  After this idea emerged in his mind, Xiao Ping no longer felt entangled and soon fell into a deep sleep.
