Chapter 472: Chapter 167: Endless Human Hearts (5000 words update, seeking monthly tickets!) _1

Yan Fei was actually wrong. He thought everyone would find the work of a vet dirty and tiring. But that was because he lived in town, near the vet station, and had grown up seeing the station workers dealing with cow dung and horse manure.

But for students from rural areas, even those vet station workers earned a government salary. Even if they had to deal with animal waste, they had a secure job. Especially those who had seen technical staff going to villages for poverty alleviation, they were hosted with the best food and accommodations. Villagers were just too scared not to serve them well enough.

Maybe before this, no one had ever considered it. But after he said this, some students were really interested.

A student then asked him, "Yan Fei, what if you stop running the cow farm in the future?"

Yan Fei counter-questioned, "Why would I stop operating my cattle farm? Don’t judge from the small quantity of my cattle now, there will be more and more in the future. I’m about to distribute cattle for you all to raise, and not less than a hundred. Why would I stop operating my cattle farm?"

Whereas their teacher just watched the students debate with a beaming smile, Yan Fei eventually got impatient with all the questioning. Smiling, he said, "Does it matter asking so many questions? Wait until you become vets to talk about that. In a current state like this, even if you want to work, I wouldn’t accept you! The highest wages at my place are $500 a month, do you think you can earn so much money without any skills? No chance! Hurry up and focus on your studies, all of you should aim to be vets in the future!"

Some people laughed and some pondered.

Kids who have experienced hardships tend to mature earlier. Some of them come from places where sometimes they can’t even pay their annual tax, or afford the overbirth fine. So, they often have their possessions confiscated. Their urge to change their living conditions is stronger than others. Maybe before this, most of them were aimless, but now, many of them are aware of a new path. Some of the bolder ones even think, ’After I’ve finished learning, I can open a cattle farm like him!’

The teacher wasn’t in a hurry, hearing everyone’s discussion for a while and preparing the test papers when the class was almost over. "You all know that books can bring you a house of gold. Actually, they can also bring you a charming bride. Look at my wife, she’s very pretty, isn’t she? Come on, take out your papers and squeeze in a few more minutes of study before the end of class."

Everyone chuckled and started the lesson.

Well, his wife really was a beautiful teacher in the school, everyone knew. She taught language to the first grade students, and her attractiveness was comparable to that of their homeroom teacher Guan Yue.

Yan Fei’s speech stirred quite some interest among the students, although not sure how many were genuinely interested. When the class was over, many students crowded around Yan Fei’s desk, asking lots of questions, some even cleverly inquired about what he meant by distributing cattle to them.

Yan Fei took the time to answer their questions patiently, and even invited them over, "I might not be home on the Lantern Festival, but you are all welcome to my place after that during the weekend. In addition to cows, I’m now also raising animals like tigers, black bears, and golden eagles. These are all protected species in our country, and I’m the only one in Tanghe County who raises them."

As he said this, he had an air of confidence that evoked envy from everyone.

Truth be told, many students were aware of it, but some didn’t have the time, and some felt embarrassed to go to a classmate’s house to see their tiger, as it seemed too unsophisticated. Hearing his invitation, however, got them excited. His two roommates even complained, "You’re so inconsiderate, you never invited us before!"

But Yan Fei didn’t believe that they would restrain themselves if they knew. He scoffed, "Don’t tell me you guys didn’t know! Weren’t you both not home during the winter vacation?"

He was right. They both went to stay with relatives during the winter break and didn’t return until the start of the new year. After that, they were too busy visiting relatives and then preventing for school to have any free time. Upon having been called out by Yan Fei, they shamelessly said, "We’re going at noon. Since the time will be short, we won’t go home for lunch and you’ll have to feed us."

Many people who heard this began showing interest. Although the journey would be long, with enough enthusiasm, they would just run faster.

Seeing that many people were willing to go, Yan Fei simply said, "Whoever wants to come at noon can bring a lunch box, I’ll serve lunch at my place. However, the food won’t be anything fancy - just noodles and bread. Take it or leave it!"

The students liked his attitude. Had he been overly polite, they would have felt less inclined to take up the offer.

At noon, Yan Fei rode his bike with a group of students who had bikes, heading first to his cattle farm, followed by a large group on foot. People on the street wondered what was going on with all the students.

For lunch, there was a simple dish of green vegetables, tomatoes, and scrambled eggs with noodles, as well as some cold cucumber salad.

The bread was purchased from a bakery and was available for everyone to eat.

Even though it was cooked in a large pot, it was far better than what the school provided. Eating while watching the tiger also added to the fun.

Miss Xu Xiaoyan had returned, and during the meal, she whispered to Yan Fei, "My father said that what you’re doing may bring trouble. Imagine! If you distribute cattle to the militiamen and Boss Ma’s construction workers, what about your relatives back in the village? Can they really stay silent when they find out? He suggested that you think about your plan of action!"

This was the reason why the whole family had been unusually quiet when he was sending Xu Xiaoyan in the morning . It turned out that his father-in-law was worried about him. Somehow his father-in-law wasn’t just thinking about taking advantage of him.

Old Xu’s problem was indeed troublesome. After thinking for a while, Yan Fei asked Xu Xiaoyan, "What does your father think we should do?"

"My father suggested you just pass the buck and say that it wasn’t solely your decision. It’s a partnership with the village. Distributing to militiamen was guaranteed by Minister Pan, and to the construction team by Boss Ma. If things don’t go well, once the Bezoar is sold and money comes in, you can also give some to those relatives and let them go to Uncle Baoguo for guarantees. Otherwise, everyone will start asking. It’s not just about whether or not you have the money, but also, some people are probably not trustworthy in your view. Besides, when it comes to relatives, things can get complicated," Xu Xiaoyan said.

Yan Fei nodded in agreement, "That’s a good idea! Your father, no, our father, is really wise!"

Xu Xiaoyan blushed, "What are you saying? There are so many classmates around!"

In fact, the other students, seeing the two of them whispering, were laughing and deliberately keeping their distance. Who could hear them?

After lunch, the students had to rush back for class. Yan Fei didn’t want to go at first, but Xu Xiaoyan insisted. He had no choice, he had to go.

As he was attending his afternoon class, he was amazed. He never thought that his father-in-law was so shrewd. No one had considered these problems when the idea was first brought up.

But not even the cunning and shrewd Old Xu could foresee all problems, because one did occur.

They say it’s impossible to please everyone. This was definitely the case.

Yan Fei was in the middle of his afternoon class when the classroom door was knocked on. Before the teacher could open it, the door was pushed open.

It was Officer Dang Wenzheng from the local police station. He apologized to the teacher for interrupting and told Yan Fei to follow him, looking markedly anxious.

As soon as Yan Fei stepped outside, Dang Wenzheng hastily said, "Hurry up, we have a huge problem. A bunch of people from a village came and blocked the entrance of the township government office!"
