Chapter 336: Encountered a troublemaker
Old man Zhang just walked in and smelled the aroma of chicken at home. His eyes lit up immediately: "It smells so good. Did we kill a chicken at home?"

Yang Xianglian leaned half of her body out of the kitchen and responded, "Yes, Dad, it's a busy farming season these days, and we just happened to have chickens and ducks raised at home, so we can try some too."

"That's great. I just came back from here and smelled all the delicious food. I almost drooled."

When Yang Xianglian was cooking the chicken soup, she did feel that the chicken smelled very fragrant, but she thought it was because she was hungry and didn't think much about it. Now she heard what her parents-in-law said.

Then she saw her brother-in-law, sister-in-law and her two children, who had clearly eaten the crispy pork she brought back, were all staring towards the kitchen. Only then did she feel something was wrong.

When the family sat down at the table, no one picked up the pork belly, which was usually popular with everyone. Instead, everyone reached for the chicken with their chopsticks.

“This chicken smells so good.”

"Delicious!"

“It’s so tender and fragrant.”

"Mom, I have never eaten such delicious chicken." This was said by Yang Xianglian's daughter.

Yang Xianglian chewed the chicken in her mouth and nodded. The chicken was really delicious. She didn't add any other seasonings, just simply sprinkled some salt.

"Now I know why Taohua Village can support so many people at once."

Mrs. Zhang: "The village chief notified us two days ago that Taohua Village will collect all the chickens and ducks we raise, and we will pay 20 cents more for each one than outsiders."

As soon as she finished speaking, Old Man Zhang also said, "Such a delicious flavor will surely sell well."

Although twenty cents may not seem like a lot of money, people don't just raise one or two, so it will add up to a lot.

What's more, these chickens and ducks are fat and plump, so everyone can make a lot of money from them.

Yang Xianglian: "Mom and Dad, let's sell our house together with everyone else."

"Okay." Mrs. Zhang and Old Man Zhang naturally would not object.

Mrs. Zhang: "I will go to the village chief's house tomorrow to talk about this." Hundreds of chickens and ducks provide a lot of food and drink every day, and they can be sold early to make money.

"Thank you for your hard work, I still have two days to go before my vacation."

"It's okay. Your father and I are at home and can handle it."

"That's right. You don't have to worry too much about the family. I'm fine. Let's raise 500 more at home this time. I'll go to the stream to get some small fish and shrimp to feed the chickens and ducks."

"This way we can accumulate more manure, so there will be enough biogas in the winter and fertilizer for the land."

"I'm going too, Grandpa. I'm going too."

"Grandpa, I want to go too. I can help."

"Okay, you guys go too." Old man Zhang smiled and picked up a piece of chicken for each of his granddaughter and grandson. Seeing the two of them eating happily, he smiled too.

Seeing this, Yang Xianglian smiled and said, "We have quite a few at home, so just leave a few for ourselves."

Mrs. Zhang nodded. The family would buy meat every now and then, so it would be fine to leave a few to satisfy their cravings.

At this moment, Mrs. Zhang seemed to have forgotten that the chickens and ducks she had just mentioned were to be sold for money.

There were many people who shared the same idea as Yang Xianglian's family, and they all left a few to satisfy their cravings.

Three days later, when the last batch of chickens and ducks were sold to the mall by Bai Tao, the sound of mission completion was audible.

'Ding, the 100,000 poultry mission has been completed, and the mission rewards have been issued.'

Bai Tao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the mission went smoothly and it was worth it for her to raise more than 10,000 more for insurance purposes.

Looking at the extra set of feed factory equipment in the warehouse, Bai Tao turned around and looked for information on building the feed factory in the mall.

Shangcun and Xiacun sold chickens and ducks and tasted the sweetness. This time, Shangcun bought more than 50,000 chicks and more than 40,000 ducks.

The lower village bought more than 60,000 ducklings and more than 50,000 chicks. Taohua Village also raised a batch of chickens. With so many ducks and chickens, they needed a lot of feed. It was a good idea to build a feed factory because they had the equipment.

After the rice seedlings are planted, the work in the fields comes to a temporary halt and we can take a break.

At this time, every household began to look for odd jobs.

In the past, they would have had trouble finding work, but now that is no longer the case. Taohua Village said it was going to build a feed factory, and now is the time to hire people.

People from other places who go there to find work have to be interrogated and questioned, and have to withhold half a month's wages, but people from the upper and lower villages do not have so many rules and regulations.

"From the upper village? What's your village chief's name? OK, thirty cents a day, two meals included, just sign here."

"You're from the next village? I remember you. Your family has signed up for a collective building project. Okay, go to the side and get the tools from the manager and listen to the arrangements."

"From Dafang Village? How did you know we were hiring? How many people are there in your family? Do you have any proof? We're going to withhold half a month's wages, you know that, right?"

"Why do we have to withhold half a month's wages? There's no need to ask why. This is just our rule."

"You mean the upper and lower villages next door? Of course they are different. Haven't you heard the saying, 'Comparing goods will lead to throwing them away, while comparing people will make you angry to death.'"

"You're from Wushi Village? If someone in your village is sick and wants to work here, you have to be examined by our doctors. If you don't want to, go back to where you came from."

Because of this reason, the people in the upper and lower villages were extremely proud. After all, this was proof of their closeness to Taohua Village.

There are also those who are not convinced and come to find fault.

Look, a group of people came to the construction site today.

The person guarding the recruitment point was Bai Tiechui, who waved his hand after asking questions.

"From Dawangzhuang? We don't accept people from Dawangzhuang. Please go back."

When Bai Tiechui said this, the leader of Dawangzhuang immediately became unhappy and shouted at the top of his voice: "Why don't you want us?"

As soon as the leader started shouting, the people behind him also started shouting.

"That's right, what happened to our Dawangzhuang?"

"Do you look down on us?"

"You are outsiders. How dare you bully us? Do you think your life is too comfortable?"

"If you don't accept our people from Dawangzhuang, no one else can work here."

"right!!!"

"That's right!!!"

"..."

Bai Tiechui was sitting down. He immediately picked up the hammer on the table and walked out of the woodshed with a stern smile: "Want to cause trouble?"

"Come on, come on, whoever wants to die, stand up. I want to see who is the fool who is causing trouble here."

He hadn't practiced on the construction site for a few days and was itching to get started.

It was lunchtime and many workers were taking a break and eating with their bowls in hand. When they heard the noise ahead, they curiously gathered over in groups of three or four, holding their bowls in hand.

When someone who knew him saw him, he immediately started whispering to the people around him: "Look, it's someone from Dawangzhuang."

Someone immediately made a sound of "Pooh" and cursed angrily in a low voice: "It's them again!"

"How dare the people from Dawangzhuang come here?"

"Will the steward not accept them?"

I discovered a bad habit of mine: when I'm not feeling well, I'm more obedient than the kids in kindergarten. But once I feel better, I start to forget about going to bed early and getting up early.
