<Return to the Ranch as a Livestock Keeper / Invited to Open a Ranch at the Frontier> by Yue Ji Yanyu [Complete]
Blurb: One day, Shi Wen received an email saying that his late grandfather had left behind a ranch. He met the inheritance requirements and was invited to claim it.
Shi Wen: A scam?
Very soon, Shi Wen discovered that such a ranch really existed. He possessed the Qilin Bloodline and truly met the relevant inheritance requirements.
As long as he nodded, the ranch deep in the grasslands would become his home.
A few days later, Shi Wen moved into his own vast ranch. Starting with a flock of sheep, he soon had dogs and cats, cattle, horses, camels, chickens, ducks, pigs, geese, and everything else imaginable.
With the Qilin Bloodline, Shi Wen was unbeatable when it came to animal husbandry.
In less than two years, the horses he raised charged into the finals of international equestrian competitions; the beef he bred won gold medals at international exhibitions; even the still-growing pigs, sheep, chickens, and ducks on his ranch were snapped up in advance by top companies around the globe.
Shi Wen, who had become a top livestock expert: This was amazing.

One-sentence summary: An Eastern Ranch, Watched by the World!
Theme: Discover your strengths, work hard to use them, and create a wonderful life.
Review: One day, Shi Wen received an email telling him that he could inherit the ranch left behind by his grandfather. When he went to handle the inheritance procedures, he learned that he had awakened the Qilin Bloodline, giving him a natural advantage in raising animals. Shi Wen tried raising cattle, sheep, pigs, horses, chickens, geese, camels, and more, achieving tremendous success. Whether it was the horses he raised or the cattle and sheep he bred, all received widespread international acclaim, and he himself was named a leading livestock expert of the modern era.
This story tells of how Shi Wen, through a chance opportunity, broke away from his former life and went from an ordinary city worker to a top livestock expert, all while finding beautiful love. The work is highly imaginative and vividly written, blending fantasy with reality. With a simple and engaging style, it brings a top-tier ranch vividly to life before the reader's eyes. It is intoxicating to read and a rare gem.
"Shi Wen, getting off work?"
"Shi Wen, you still not leaving?"
Hearing the voices, Shi Wen looked up at the clock hanging on the office wall.
It was exactly five-thirty, the time his company got off work.
He let out a slightly irritated breath, then looked up at the colleagues calling to him. "I'll work some overtime. You guys go ahead."
His colleagues gave him sympathetic looks. "The boss made you work overtime again? We'll get going, then. See you tomorrow."
Shi Wen said, "See you tomorrow."
As he spoke, Shi Wen's gaze landed on the sky beyond the window.
April weather was wonderfully clear. The setting sun seemed to have melted into vast stretches of brilliant rosy clouds piled across the sky, while the evening breeze drifted in carrying the scent of spring.
This lousy job—if he got off work now, he could enjoy the spring breeze and watch the sunset.
Just then, his computer gave a soft ding, pulling Shi Wen back from his thoughts.
He looked toward the lower-right corner of the screen. An email notification had popped up, titled "Disposition Plan for the Ranch Under Comrade Shi Jingbo's Name."
It was actually a personal email.
Shi Wen froze for a moment. He had not seen his grandfather's name in a very long time.
His grandfather had been dead for nearly three years. Where had this email come from? What ranch?
Shi Wen clicked it open.
The email expanded on the screen, its wording extremely formal.
In general, it said that his grandfather, Shi Jingbo, had owned a ranch. Shi Wen met the inheritance requirements this year, so did he wish to inherit it?
If he wished to do so, he could make an appointment through the official mini-program and complete the relevant procedures.
Instructions for making an appointment were attached below.
Were scam emails this personalized now?
Frowning, Shi Wen closed the email.
His parents had divorced when he was in high school, then each remarried and had more children. After that, he never went back again. During holidays, he stayed in his university dormitory, and after graduation, he stayed in his rented apartment.
When his grandfather had slipped and died in his hometown during the Lunar New Year three years ago, his aunt had been the one to notify him.
As a member of the third generation, none of the inheritance would fall to him, so he had not asked about it. He had only attended the funeral.
The old man had been dead for three years. With his limited circumstances, Shi Wen had had few chances to visit his grave, only burning paper offerings every Lunar New Year.
Why would the email be sent to him?
Shi Wen continued working, but his mind was unsettled, and his efficiency dropped sharply.
After working for a while, he could not resist opening the email again.
He was very familiar with the mini-program mentioned in the email. It was his province's official mini-program, used for things like medical insurance and social security. He used it fairly often, and it was even in the pinned mini-program bar on WeChat.
The procedure told him to make an appointment through a subcategory called "Anomaly Management."
He took out his phone and followed the email's instructions, opening the hidden "More Services" option on the mini-program's homepage. He easily found the words "Anomaly Management."
That department actually existed.
He followed the steps one by one. Before long, a notification popped up: Your appointment has been successfully scheduled. Please bring all required documents and arrive at the service center thirty minutes early to avoid missing your number.
Shi Wen stared at that notification for quite a while.
His appointment was at nine tomorrow morning. Whether the email was real or fake, he would find out when he went to the service center tomorrow.
A government service center could not be fake, could it?
Though that was what he thought, Shi Wen still could not help taking his phone into the hallway to call his eldest aunt.
His aunt sounded even more surprised than he was. "What ranch? Your grandfather never ran a ranch. He only helped someone raise cattle and sheep in Province J, and he did not do it for long. Something happened when he came home for the New Year. The owner was kind enough to give us some money, too."
His aunt said, "Your father and your cousins checked everything. It was all handled properly. Who said something to you?"
Shi Wen said, "No one. I was just asking. Auntie, have you been keeping well lately..."
