Wolverines are extremely rare, and the video made it to the front page of major platforms the night it was released, accumulating over ten million views.

The next day, Shi Wen Gong Jiang and the other two gathered at the Wen family's house, they said they wanted to celebrate.

Lin Chengqian, with a chocolate in his mouth, said, "This morning, the total number of views across the entire network has already exceeded 30 million. Reaching 100 million views this time is definitely not a problem."

Shi Wen, "These are truly remarkable figures."

Lin Chengqian: "The main thing is that the content was well-chosen, Brother Shi you actually led us to a wolverine, which made for a fantastic dramatic effect. Brother Shi, even if you didn't run a ranch, you could still become a viral sensation and reach the pinnacle of your life by making animal videos."

"Then there's no need," Shi Wen his hand in refusal. "I still prefer our family's ranch."

Lin Chengqian grinned. "The results were so good this time that netizens even asked us to film other protected animals, such as the Przewalski's horse that was trending before, or the giant panda."

Shi Wen, "Do you want to take pictures too?"

Gong Jiang said, "We probably can't find it on our own, so let's forget it."

Lin Chengqian: "We'll bother you again next time we encounter a problem choosing a topic. Let's not use your trump card now."

A smile Shi Wen.

Lin Chengqian: "Using powerful weapons too frequently diminishes their impact."

Ge Yue said, "I'm mainly afraid of getting scolded by the teacher."

Yan Kexing walked in from outside. "Did I insult you?"

Yan Kexing wasn't actually a teacher who often scolded people; it's just that when he did criticize someone, it was particularly unbearable.

Ge Yue shrank back and wisely remained silent.

Shi Wen that everyone was there, Shi Wen said, "Since everyone's here, let's make some nourishing soup!"

Yan Kexing: "Chicken soup?"

Shi Wen, "How about trying old pigeon soup?"

Their family has always kept pigeons, with adult pigeons and baby pigeons, so raising them isn't too troublesome.

Shi Wen that they would contact pigeon fanciers before each batch of pigeons had matured, asking them to select the pigeons with the most potential, while the rest would be raised as breeding pigeons.

Shi Wen didn't spend much time on the pigeons and rarely took care of them, but now the pigeons have bred into a large flock, numbering over three hundred.

Looks like we need to get rid of a batch of them.

He was too busy recently and forgot about it. Now that everyone's here, it's a good time to give it a try.

Shi Wen that they wanted to drink old pigeon soup, everyone agreed.

Ge Yue his hand and said, "I've been watching the pigeons flying around outside, and they've been craving some for a while now. They're wondering when they can have a taste."

Shi Wen said, "Then I'll give you a chance today. Go and prepare the ingredients."

Pigeons are relatively small and have thin skin, making them more difficult to handle.

This is also why we didn't make up our minds to Shi Wen with the pigeons before; they are so busy, it would be too much of a waste to spend a lot of time carefully dealing with the pigeons.

Now that there's labor available, it's a good opportunity to get them busy.

The three men from Gong Jiang were used to doing menial tasks and had slaughtered chickens and geese on the ranch many times, so they had developed their skills.

Shi Wen to catch pigeons, so they caught five and quickly went to the backyard to deal with them.

Yan Kexing asked, "Besides the old pigeon soup, would you like to eat any other pigeon dishes?"

Shi Wen immediately became interested. "What other dishes can you make with pigeons?"

Yan Kexing: "Roasted pigeon, stewed pigeon, grilled pigeon... Pigeon is one of the six birds, and there are many recipes passed down from generation to generation."

"Roasted pigeon! I've had it once before, and I thought roasted pigeon made from regular pigeon was quite delicious." Shi Wen, Shi Wen suddenly remembered, "Is it too late to make this dish now? Isn't it a bit too late?"

"It's not too late," Yan Kexing said. "Pigeons are small and have thin skin and meat, so they're relatively easy to prepare. Unlike other dishes, they don't need to be prepared several hours or even days in advance."

Shi Wen someone wants to eat roasted pigeon, you should catch a few more.

The number of pigeons that Gong Jiang and his two companions had to deal with suddenly increased from five to fifteen, but none of them had any objections.

The three of them worked hard in the backyard, with Shi Wen following Yan Kexing around doing odd jobs for him.

Yan Kexing poured out light and dark soy sauce, then went to the backyard to gather spices; he was going to start by making soy sauce.

Shi Wen watched him prepare the ingredients one by one and said, "You've done a very meticulous job this time."

Yan Kexing rolled up his sleeves to his elbows, revealing his long, slender arms with toned muscles. "Good pigeons are rare; we need to handle them properly."

Shi Wen tell at a glance that he was itching to show off his skills, so she leaned against the kitchen counter and watched him with a smile.

Gong Jiang brought in the ten pigeons that had been prepared beforehand.

After cleaning the pigeons Yan Kexing found a summer fan, turned it on to the highest setting, and blew hard on the pigeons, which had already been dried with kitchen paper towels.

While drying the surface, Yan Kexing brushed the freshly made soy sauce onto the pigeon skin and belly, repeating the process over and over again.

The soy sauce smells amazing; even before cooking begins, just Shi Wen a whiff of it makes my mouth water.

Yan Kexing said slowly, "The most important thing in making this dish is patience. Don't rush."

Shi Wen rubbed her stomach and said, "I'm not in a hurry, I'm just a little hungry."

Yan Kexing smiled and said, "Would you like to eat something else to tide you over?"

Shi Wen carefully assessed her hunger level and rationally said, "Never mind, I can't take up my stomach."

While Yan Kexing brushing soy sauce on the pigeons, Gong Jiang and the others brought in another five pigeons.

Yan Kexing asked them to pick baby corn from the cornfield so they could make pigeon and baby corn soup.

He was too busy to do anything else, Shi Wen took over the job and continued to brush the pigeons again and again, patiently coating every inch of their skin with soy sauce.

The pigeons were quickly painted a charming maroon color.

The pigeon soup was gradually ready, and its enchanting, sweet aroma filled the entire kitchen.
