Chapter 158 (continued)
Apart from Baoye A Sai, all the other members who ordered the pet sheep are in City B, including one Abilities.
Shi Wen had a good impression of these eleven members and believed they were all reliable people. He felt he could put some peace of mind entrusting Xiao Yang to them.
With the help of the Abnormal Affairs Bureau, when the lambs were handed over, the airline staff immediately gave them seats and assigned someone to accompany them.
The lambs were very well-behaved, not making a fuss the whole way.
At 7:43 PM, the last member received the lamb and was very satisfied with its performance.
Shi Wen the lambs quickly adapted to their new home and interacted well with their new owner.
Members who received the lamb expressed that it was exactly the pet lamb they wanted, and even exceeded their expectations. They loved the lamb and would take good care of it, putting Shi Wen at ease.
Shi Wen seeing the photos and videos, Shi Wen realized that the lambs were indeed in good condition, so he felt a little relieved.
With the Lunar New Year approaching, the gift boxes prepared for members this month are a bit heavier, Shi Wen has been quite busy.
Their ranch needs to process a batch of livestock and poultry, including geese, sheep, pigs, fat-tailed sheep, and Bresse chickens.
Because his livestock are valuable, they cannot be processed by machine—that would ruin the flavor of the ingredients—so he hires people to process them meticulously by hand.
These past few days, their ranch has hired a lot of casual laborers, mostly their neighbors.
Everyone was very familiar with the work on the ranch and took it very seriously. There was basically no need for Shi Wen to manage it. Everyone divided the work and processed the ingredients according to his requirements.
With so many ingredients piled up here, they wouldn't all be used up just for gifts to members, Shi Wen put some of the ingredients up for sale on the mini-program.
After preparing the member gift packs, he put up a total of 7,500 different kinds of ingredients, with an average price of 3,600 yuan per pack, which were sold out in less than two hours.
This is even under purchase restrictions.
The popularity of the ingredients at home greatly boosted Shi Wen's confidence and also filled his pockets.
With this payment as a foundation, we're guaranteed a good New Year no matter what.
Shi Wen hurriedly dealt with the follow-up matters, contacted the logistics industry, carefully packed all kinds of ingredients, attached shipping labels, and prepared to have them delivered to each household.
They keep the sheepskin when they slaughter a sheep.
Shi Wen originally planned to ask Zhang Deyuan and his group to help process the sheepskins, He Chengzhang contacted him specifically after hearing about it, expressing his desire to buy his batch of sheepskins.
This year's fat-tailed sheep were actually only half-grown and still had room to grow. Shi Wen not all of the more than 1,000 fat-tailed sheep were slaughtered, but only 700 were.
He Chengzhang bought all the sheepskins for 1,200 yuan each.
He didn't need to Shi Wen them to act; he simply transported the raw sheepskin away.
Shi Wen was relieved and quickly completed the handover of the sheepskin.
After being busy for almost half a month, Shi Wen finally finished up his work on the ranch.
He gave red envelopes to Gong Jiang and the other two, as well as Tian Xiaoyu, and then saw them off. He then prepared to Yan Kexing.
With nothing much going on before the New Year, Shi Wen looked at the freezer full of meat and suggested to Yan Kexing, "How about we go see the two tigers? It's been a while since we last visited them; I wonder if they miss us."
Yan Kexing laughed, "We should have thought about it. If we don't go check soon, they'll probably all be coming down the mountain."
"Haha, I guess so too. Shall we go up the mountain tomorrow?" Shi Wen said enthusiastically. "We can bring two big bags of meat up, and also some chicken and goose eggs for them to try."
Yan Kexing: "Then go to bed early tonight."
Shi Wen, "I'll sleep after I finish the accounts."
This Shi Wen a total surplus of over 40 million.
This number is astonishing, considering there are so many animals on the ranch and various supplies such as hay. Although these are not cash, they are still money.
With so much money in the account now, Shi Wen plans to buy another batch of animals after spring.
First, buy a thousand fat-tailed sheep, and then consider what other animals to buy. We need to prepare several million.
In the spring, there will be a shortage of food, so we should replenish the fodder, which will cost hundreds of thousands.
There are also various labor costs, medical expenses, renovation costs, etc., which should also be set aside.
Shi Wen additions and subtractions, a financial table was created.
His financial situation has always been good. Even when he was at his poorest, he still had money after deducting the loans from the supplies on the ranch.
Now they're even richer.
Yan Kexing looked at his remaining balance. "This year's harvest is really good."
"Right?" Shi Wen said with great enthusiasm, "You don't need to work so hard, this money is enough to support the two of us."
Yan Kexing smiled and said, "Okay."
Shi Wen knew that Yan Kexing was far wealthier than him, but seeing this figure still made him very happy. "After a busy year, the most fulfilling moment is counting money."
Yan Kexing: "Shouldn't it be when the livestock sheds and poultry houses are packed to the brim?"
Shi Wen retorted seriously, "That won't do. Money is all about getting it into your pocket. At that time, I wasn't even sure if it would turn into money."
His ingredients are so expensive; if customers don't buy them, that would be a problem.
Fortunately, that didn't go wrong.
After calculating the money, Shi Wen went to sleep with Yan Kexing, feeling satisfied.
With so much money, we can go all out next year and we're guaranteed to succeed.
The next morning, Shi Wen and Yan Kexing got up early.
After feeding the pets at home and checking on the ranch, Shi Wen entrusted the ranch to the dogs and then drove off to visit the two tigers.
They hadn't visited the two tigers for some time.
The prayers Shi Wen, but the two tigers remained in the same spot.
As is customary, they went to see the mother tiger first.
This time, the tigress spotted them from a great distance and came running down the mountain.
