Chapter 1043: Chapter 546 Sending Money Sending Money_2

The woman’s already swollen eyes suddenly reddened even more, holding the money not knowing whether to accept it or not, until her son-in-law came over and said a few words of thanks.

After leaving the money and finishing speaking, the group left — with the family busy with funeral affairs and too many people around, their presence in the courtyard and on the road outside only caused more of a disturbance.

After getting into the car, they planned to visit other villages to check the flooding situation in the fields and estimate what the autumn harvest might look like to be prepared in advance.

By the time they returned to the town at noon, lunchtime had already passed, and the group went directly to the local government canteen, where the chef made them a simple meal on the spot.

While eating, Mayor Chen seemingly casually asked Yan Fei a question, "Xiao Fei, do you have any big development plans lately?"

"Not really," Yan Fei was startled. "I’m just waiting a few days to rebuild my greenhouse. Everywhere is focused on flood relief now, so I’ll see after this period is over!"

Mayor Chen acknowledged with an ’oh’ and didn’t say more.

He was also desperate, seeing the income in the rural areas plummeting later in the year, he was looking for a way out.

But Yan Fei also had no big development plans at the moment, the cattle he distributed almost accounted for two-thirds of the annual planned slaughter volume, which was already quite a lot.

Although many villages were affected by the disaster, what could Yan Fei do? He did have endless land, but isn’t that like having dinosaurs? Even if not, it wouldn’t be appropriate, right?

Speaking of the cattle farm, aside from losing those greenhouses, there really wasn’t much other damage. His fifty acres of pasture grass, because of the initially poorly chosen land — the soil quality wasn’t great, and it was sloped, not retaining water well.

But now with the flooding, those fifty acres of pasture grass were advantaged and not submerged at all.

Thinking of the pasture grass, he felt he could do something more and suggested, "How about this, depending on which village is severely affected, I could rent some land there and plant pasture grass?"

Mayor Chen immediately perked up, "How much would you plant?"

"I’ll plant more this time," Yan Fei said offhandedly. "I was afraid of failing before and didn’t dare to plant too much, but now with experience, I might try planting a hundred or two hundred acres!"

Earning more money himself was useless if the quality of his cattle’s meat was unmatched elsewhere, commanding high prices. Planting pasture grass could also serve as a cover and even provide a money-earning opportunity for the locals. Why not?

"Great!" Mayor Chen was very pleased. "You’re really doing great things for our town!"

Lin Baoguo, Old Pan, and others also looked at Yan Fei with approval and admiration.

This was not something to be done in a rush. After lunch, Yan Fei returned to the cattle farm and was delighted to see Xu Xiaoyan had come.

Unfortunately, their time alone was soon interrupted by the arrival of Chen Yingjun.

He arrived all excited, "Brother Fei, to preserve this ’Black Pearl,’ I went through so much trouble. I even came here stealthily. You don’t know; Miss Tang is on my back every day, I..."

Yan Fei treated it as if a fly was buzzing by his ear and casually handed the Black Pearl to his wife: "Do you like how it looks? Hold onto it for fun! Whenever we have time, I’ll make it into a pearl necklace for you, it’ll definitely look good on you!"

Xu Xiaoyan held it and couldn’t put it down, mainly because the shape of the pearl was too appealing; she turned it over and over, growing fonder as she looked, and after a while, she said, "I won’t disturb your chat anymore..."

And she took it to another room to admire it by herself.

Chen Yingjun then handed over a bag he brought to Yan Fei: "I’ve turned over all the money to you, count it a bit, I won’t recognize it if two bills are missing later!"

Having just given someone else twenty thousand yuan and then someone else bringing in five million yuan, Boss Yan was on cloud nine; he was too lazy to count so much money and tossed them aside: "How’s business these days?"

Upon mentioning business, Chen Yingjun became enthusiastic: "It’s great, you have no idea. Those wealthy young men with their girls are flocking to my place, eating the most expensive stuff, even booking the best seats – I pity the money they spend!"

"You love playing the clever child," Yan Fei laughed. "So, you’ve completely stopped dog fighting, right?"

"Stopped, stopped!" Chen Yingjun switched faces like a dramatic actor, appearing deeply moved. "Do you know, Brother Fei? I’ve even outsourced the dog-rearing facility. Now, I only keep one dog, no, one wolf. Do you remember the Native Wolf that fought the Black Lion last?"

"Are you kidding, what about it? You’re keeping that Native Wolf now?" Yan Fei said impatiently.

"Yeah!" Chen Yingjun sighed. "I feel that though the fights were profitable, they were inhumane. The Native Wolf fought another round and got one leg bitten off, now it limps. I thought I’d keep it! Looking at it reminds me of my foolish past..."

"Get out, get out, get out!" Yan Fei was annoyed by his tone. "Can you not make it sound so tragically intense? Can we move on with the conversation?"

Chen Yingjun chuckled, "Just reflecting, just reflecting! By the way, Brother Fei, I remember next to your greenhouse, you planted either hibiscuses or roses, right? It looked like roses, didn’t it?"
