Finally, Shi Wen invited Old Hunchback inside for a detailed discussion and ordered a large quantity of cat beds, dog beds, small blankets, quilts, and small clothes.

He and Yan Kexing weren't actually very afraid of the cold. With their physical constitutions, they wouldn't get cold unless it was extremely cold.

The little guys at home suffer a lot in winter. If I could put a coat on them when the temperature drops drastically, they would be much better off.

Actually, there's nothing wrong with saying this openly, but since we mainly make products for people here, it's inevitable that some people will mind if word gets out that we're making a batch of products specifically for small animals. So Shi Wen privately mentioned it to Old Hunchback.

He has many small animals of different sizes, and the custom-made nests, blankets, and other items he makes come in different sizes.

This matter was rather complicated, but Old Hunchback agreed without hesitation because the reward offered was high enough.

However, after ordering a batch of wool products, relatively little wool can be sold.

Compared to the last time, Shi Wen were selling wool, they lost over 100,000 yuan.

Old Hunchback's family worked at full capacity to produce all sorts of wool products for them, and a week later, the wool products were delivered to their home.

Wool has been spun into cloth and made into blankets, and its original appearance is no longer recognizable.

Their wool is good quality; it's not dyed and turns a light flaxen white after washing.

Shi Wen it in my hand, it feels like a soft cloud—soft, thick, and with a faint fragrance. It's not prickly at all and feels incredibly gentle on the skin.

Shi Wen pressed her face against the wool blanket in her hands. "So this is what a wool blanket looks like. It's completely different from what I imagined."

Yan Kexing: "It's just that our wool blankets are like this; if you used a regular wool blanket, it would be too prickly."

Shi Wen placed the wool blanket against his face and pressed it against him, saying, "Now I can truly feel the success of our sheep farming. It's a pity we ordered too little. If I had known our wool products would turn out like this, I should have ordered more."

"The wool will definitely be even better in the future," Yan Kexing smiled. "If needed, we can order another batch next year. By then, we'll know which items to add and which ones are unnecessary."

Shi Wen, "That makes sense."

The quality of the wool products delivered this time is really good. Shi Wen was even thinking of waiting until the temperature drops significantly before giving them to the little ones at home.

However, once he got his hands on the wool products, he couldn't resist showing off and changed all the little guys' dens, even replacing the dens of the two horses with wool ones.

His horses used to sleep on straw, but now they've been put in woolen beds. The two horses find this quite strange and refuse to sleep in anything other than the woolen beds.

Compared to the horses, the Heiwa seem to cherish their woolen beds more, perhaps because dogs naturally prefer soft beds.

The wool nests we have now are warm, soft, and have a faint fragrance and sheen. They are absolutely beautiful in both shape and color.

Dogs have aesthetic sense too. Compared to the industrial-grade beds we bought from outside, these handmade beds are clearly more exquisite and beautiful, and they like them more.

Because the Wolf King was so reluctant to part with its woolen nest, it would turn on the tap to wash its paws every day before entering the house, and it also insisted on using the sofa cover as a foot towel.

The other dogs followed suit, also carrying sofa covers as paw wipes, and making sure to wash and dry their paws before going into their beds each day.

Shi Wen expected them to cherish their new nest so much. I was both amused and exasperated, so I installed a small water tap near the nest so they wouldn't have to go far away to wash their feet.

In addition, he replaced all their foot-wiping cloths and prepared special small blankets for them.

When Gong Jiang and his companions arrived at the ranch, they were astonished to see the dogs' newly renovated kennels.

Ge Yue looked at the doghouse. "Their doghouse is so nice, even better than my dorm room."

Lin Chengqian muttered, "It seems my den is the real doghouse, while theirs are clearly works of art."

"Small animals have emotional needs too, you know. They want better nests and more comfortable products," Shi Wen said with a smile. "Speaking of which, I've also prepared a four-piece bedding set for you. If you don't mind, I'll get it for you later."

Ge Yue immediately replied, "We don't mind at all! How could we possibly mind? Brother Shi, you are truly our mentor and father-in-law!"

Shi Wen laughed and said, "Come on, don't be so mushy. After all, it's the same style as the dogs' bedding, I'm just afraid you guys won't feel comfortable. But your teacher and I also use this style of bedding, it's quite good, it's just a bit hot to use in this weather."

Ge Yue: "I can use them with the air conditioning on."

Lin Chengqian: "Me too, these wool products feel so good."

Gong Jiang: "Speaking of which, seeing these wool products makes me want to breed fat-tailed sheep for wool. If all fat-tailed sheep produced wool of this quality, I think breeding them specifically for wool wouldn't be a bad business."

Shi Wen calmly declined, saying, "I can't have that. I still really want to eat mutton."

Everyone laughed when he said that.

Shi Wen's wool products are so wonderful; the little ones cherish them.

Seeing that the dogs had learned to wash their feet, the two horses also started washing themselves with the tap.

Horses always need to be washed, but because they are large and covered in fur, they need to be dried quickly after washing, otherwise they are prone to skin diseases.

Shi Wen Shi Wen bathing the two horses troublesome, but seeing how enthusiastic they were now, Shi Wen was forced to become enthusiastic as well.

Bathing them is fine, but drying their fur is such a hassle.

Shi Wen lacked patience, yet he dared not let them roam the pasture soaking wet every day. After all, the wind was so strong and the water so cold; if they got sick, things would be troublesome.

Because of this, Shi Wen specially commissioned the factory to customize a large bellows for blowing hair.
