Chapter 498 - Further into Shrimp Fry
Chapter 498 of "Peach Blossom Divine Medical God" starts with: The next morning, Xiaocui arrived very early.At this time, Chen Yang had just gotten out... Continue exploring!
The next morning, Xiaocui arrived very early.
At this time, Chen Yang had just gotten out of bed not long ago.
He had finished washing up and was preparing to make breakfast.
Seeing Xiaocui come over, Chen Yang asked, âHave you had breakfast yet?
If not, shall I make some for you too?â
âNo need, Brother Chen Yang.
I had breakfast before coming.â
Xiaocui stood obediently in front of Chen Yang, smiling as she spoke.
Their interaction from the day before had made them more familiar, and today Xiaocui was no longer as shy.
Chen Yang looked at the confident Xiaocui and felt good.
âAlright, then.
Have a seat for a while, Iâll go ahead and make breakfast.â
Chen Yang said with a smile.
âMhm.â Xiaocui smiled sweetly and nodded, then turned to read a book.
Chen Yang went to the kitchen and made himself breakfast.
After breakfast, Chen Yang was about to continue teaching Xiaocui, but he suddenly received a call from Yang Caiyun.
Yang Caiyun had tried the crayfish that were delivered yesterday.
As soon as the call connected, she couldnât stop praising Chen Yangâs crayfish and decided she wanted to source crayfish from him long-term to introduce a new dish.
Hearing Yang Caiyunâs satisfaction with the crayfish over the phone, Chen Yang felt quite happy.
âThen letâs start supplying from tomorrow.
Itâs probably too late today,â Chen Yang said with a laugh.
âMhm, mhm, no problem, Iâll come over myself tomorrow morning!â
Yang Caiyun said excitedly.
Upon hearing this, an idea suddenly popped into Chen Yangâs mind.
He changed the subject, âSis, do you have time to come with me for a trip in a bit?â
âWhatâs up?
What do you need to do?â Yang Caiyun asked in surprise, unsure of what Chen Yang suddenly had in mind.
Chen Yang explained, âYou need a pretty large amount of crayfish, and my own farm doesnât have much left.
I was thinking of having you help me get in touch with that crayfish fry supplier to see if they can provide me with more fry.â
âAlright, thatâs no problem.
Just come over later, and Iâll go with you,â Yang Caiyun said.
Chen Yang had purchased crayfish fry through Yang Caiyun before and had also gone with her to make the purchases, so she was very clear about the matter.
Chen Yang didnât need to explain too much.
After hanging up with Yang Caiyun, Xiaocui, who was reading, looked over.
âBrother Chen Yang, are you going out again?â
âYeah, thereâs some stuff to do outside.
Iâm afraid I wonât be able to teach you anything today.
Take the books back with you and read them.
Iâll take you home now, and you can come back tomorrow.â
Chen Yang replied.
Upon hearing that Chen Yang had a lot to do today, Xiaocui didnât say much, simply nodding in agreement.
She then packed up a few of Chen Yangâs books and followed Chen Yang into the van, heading for the county town.
Half an hour later, Chen Yang arrived downstairs at Xiaocuiâs place with his vehicle.
As soon as Xiaocui saw her home, she proactively opened the door and got out.
âBye, Brother Chen Yang.â
After getting out of the car, Xiaocui waved goodbye to Chen Yang.
âBye, see you tomorrow.â
Chen Yang waved back, then drove off in the van to Yang Caiyunâs river fish restaurant.
Chen Yang had left early, and by the time he reached the restaurant, it was only eleven oâclock.
At that time, the restaurant wasnât very busy, and the staff were busy cleaning up.
âWhereâs the boss?â
Chen Yang walked into the restaurant and inquired with one of the staff.
âThe boss should be in the kitchen, Boss Chen,â the staff member replied with a smile.
With Chen Yangâs frequent visits to the river fish restaurant since the partnership with Yang Caiyun, the staff had almost all come to recognize Chen Yang.
âOkay.â
Chen Yang nodded and went straight to the kitchen, then found Yang Caiyun.
Seeing Chen Yang arrive, Yang Caiyun didnât waste any time and followed him to the car.
Neither of them spoke, but they were perfectly in sync.
They traveled in silence until they reached the place where shrimp larvae were sold.
Chen Yang had bought quite a few last time, but it still wasnât enough, so this time he decided to be more decisive and directly asked for a thousand pounds in one go!
The shrimp larva sellerâs eyes nearly popped out when he heard Chen Yang wanted a thousand pounds.
âA thousand pounds?
Brother, youâre not joking, right?
Youâre just a newbie, arenât you afraid of investment failure?â the boss asked with a face full of surprise.
In the bossâs eyes, those who farmed shrimps only had one harvest season per year, even though the profit was good, the investment period was relatively long.
He had never seen anyone like Chen Yang who came to buy shrimp larvae every so often.
He had no clue what Chen Yang was up to.
Buying shrimp larvae in fits and starts, and each time more than the last.
Seeing the astonishment on the bossâs face, Chen Yang laughed and, realizing what the boss was thinking, said with a smile, âHeh, if youâve started something, whatâs there to fear about failing?â
âThe larvae I bought the last two times, following your instructions, are all doing well, so this time I wanted to get a bit more in one go.â
âAfter all, raising them in the pond isnât much trouble; itâs just about feeding them a bit more.â
While pretending to be a novice himself, Chen Yang also patted the boss on the back.
The boss looked at Yang Caiyun with a somewhat sly gaze.
Once he heard Chen Yang flattering him, he instantly felt flattered and didnât think much further about it.
He agreed cheerfully.
âAlright, sure, a thousand pounds it is!â While agreeing, he also complimented Chen Yang to Yang Caiyun.
âCaiyun girl, your cousin is someone who does big things!
Heâs bound to be successful in the future.â
Yang Caiyun smiled upon hearing this.
âOf course, Iâve always had faith in him, and who knows, he might even become the richest person in the county one day.â
Although Yang Caiyun was joking on the surface, in her heart, it wasnât a joke at all, because she truly had high hopes for Chen Yang.
Chen Yangâs flattery had achieved an unexpected effect, and the purchase went off without a hitch.
After the boss agreed, they chatted for a moment before getting down to business.
They discussed the price and other details, and once everything was settled, they began to load the truck, then Chen Yang left with Yang Caiyun.
Transporting the truck full of shrimp larvae, Chen Yang was in a very good mood.
With these shrimps, there was no need for him to worry about the shrimp farm anymore.
And there was no need to purchase more larvae.
The Rejuvenation Pill not only enabled the animals to grow quickly but also to breed rapidly.
Although Chen Yang needed to supply several hundred pounds of shrimp a day, he was sure that these more than a thousand pounds of larvae were enough for breeding.
There would definitely be no shortage of shrimp in the future.
However, while he no longer needed to worry, another problem had escalated as well.
That was, with the increase in shrimp farming, the need for feed and Rejuvenation Pills had also increased.
The feed was easy enough, just buy more pork.
But Rejuvenation Pills couldnât be bought and had to be refined by Chen Yang himself.
Although refining Rejuvenation Pills was easy, doing so in large quantities was troublesome.
âI might as well refine some today while Iâve got the time; I should be running low at home.â Chen Yang thought to himself.
In the midst of his thoughts, he had already driven to the entrance of Yang Caiyunâs fish restaurant.
Seeing that they were near her place, Yang Caiyun naturally wanted to get out of the car.
However, when she tried to open the door, she realized the lock wasnât open.
She thought Chen Yang had forgotten about it and turned to look at him, âYang Zi, the door isnât open.
Hurry up and unlock it.â
At that moment, a faint mischievous smile played on Chen Yangâs face, âSis, can I discuss something with you?â
Yang Caiyun was caught off guard by Chen Yangâs expression for a moment.
She initially thought Chen Yang had simply forgotten to open the door, but it turned out it was intentional.
âWhat is it, youâve got something else?â
Yang Caiyun asked with a smile.
âArenât you coming over tomorrow morning to pick up some shrimp?â
Chen Yang said with a smile, âHow about you just come with me today, and Iâll give you a thorough introduction and show you exactly what makes my shrimp so special.â
