Chapter 210 (continued)
Zhu Ji: "I understand, who would have thought of that? Actually, it's alright, as long as the misunderstanding can be cleared up."
Zhu Ji breathed a sigh of relief, "I really thought you were arguing with me. It scared me to death; I almost made a major mistake at work."
Shi Wen didn't know what to say, so he could only pat Zhu Ji on the shoulder.
It's quite frightening to argue with your work colleagues for no reason. He's had a job before, so he understands.
Zhu Ji: "I'll bring the equipment over tomorrow to test these little guys and see how their data is going."
Shi Wen, "Great, I don't have anything to do tomorrow, so I'll stay home too."
Zhu Ji: "Then I'll come earlier tomorrow."
Zhu Ji was genuinely curious about Shi Wen family's little ones was going.
Early the next morning, Zhu Ji brought Duan Kuo to have Heiwa and the others tested.
When he arrived at the ranch, Shi Wen was still asleep.
Shi Wen yawned as he opened the door. "You guys are way too early!"
Zhu Ji said very understandingly, "Duan Kuo and I will assemble the equipment first, you don't need to worry about us."
Shi Wen shook his head. "I'm awake now, and I can't fall back asleep anyway. I'll assemble it with you guys."
Yan Kexing was also concerned about the test results of Heiwa and the others, so he took a leave of absence to stay on the ranch and get tested with them.
Heiwa and the others lined up to get tested.
The first one tested was Cong Zai. Last time, Cong Zai's Divinity was 203 and his Abilities was 211. This time, both have doubled, with Divinity at 428 and Abilities 453. Even within the Abnormal Affairs Bureau, these are quite good numbers.
The test results for Heiwa and Wolf King were similar: Heiwa Divinity 344 and Abilities 375; Wolf King Divinity of 348 and Abilities 354.
The other little guys' stats are even worse. Apart from An Wa, whose Divinity is 214 and Abilities 208, barely passing the standard line for Variant Beasts, the rest of the little guys are still a bit short of luck.
To Zhu Ji's delight, the little fox, the White Tiger, and the Chasing Clouds all made great progress after arriving at the ranch, with each stat increasing by an average of over two hundred.
The one that has made the most progress is Chasing Clouds, whose Divinity is 411 and Abilities is 367.
Even without looking at the test data, anyone who has spent time with Chasing Clouds before can feel that it is more agile than before, and its personality is more obvious, as if it is gradually coming into its own.
Upon seeing the result, Zhu Ji grinned so broadly his teeth almost showed. "Your ranch is truly amazing."
Shi Wen, "That's normal. The longer we live on the ranch, the better the environment becomes, which in turn promotes everyone's growth."
Zhu Ji: "Everyone knows the principle, but it's really difficult to get good results. Look at the Abnormal Affairs Bureau, everyone has been working themselves to the bone to collect Variant Ingredients for so many years, trying to promote the growth of the members, but it hasn't been very effective, has it?"
Yan Kexing: "Not only is it ineffective, but the Abnormal Affairs Bureau is also getting weaker and weaker, and there are fewer and fewer Abilities. This world is becoming less and less suitable for Abilities to live in."
Zhu Ji was taken aback by his sudden remark and choked for a moment. "Old Yan, you shouldn't insult someone by bringing up their weaknesses!"
Yan Kexing: "Not the truth?"
Zhu Ji snorted twice, ignoring him, and looked at the test report, saying to Shi Wen, "They are incredibly lucky to have met you."
Shi Wen laughed and said, "I'm quite lucky to have met them."
Zhu Ji snapped his fingers, "I understand, you're going in the same direction."
After the test was completed, Zhu Ji asked Shi Wen opinion, "I need to report these test results."
Shi Wen wasn't surprised. "Go ahead and report it."
Zhu Ji: "Then sign your name on the back of the test results. You're their guardian. We might need to contact you later if there are any benefits or other things we need your cooperation with."
Shi Wen, "No problem, just don't make it too complicated."
Shi Wen had been raising so many Variant Beasts that the people in the Abnormal Affairs Bureau were practically worshipping him, and it was impossible for them to cause him any trouble.
After the test results were reported, the director of the Abnormal Affairs Bureau, Dang Changming, personally came to the ranch to express his condolences and brought Shi Wen and the Shi Wen a lot of gifts.
Among these gifts are some specially customized for each little one's unique personality, and each one is quite expensive.
After getting Shi Wen's permission, the little ones happily carried their gifts away.
Although they are intelligent, they are rarely treated so seriously, so during this period, the little guys have developed an overwhelming fondness for the Abnormal Affairs Bureau.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, once they officially become Abilities, they will definitely be the type of Abilities who are close to the Abnormal Affairs Bureau.
As the weather gradually turns cooler, Shi Wen that people have been hired to harvest hay and corn.
The cut grass piled up on the pasture, emitting a faint but pleasant aroma, which smoothly ushered the entire pasture into the golden autumn season.
Besides the pasture outside, the vegetables in the backyard can also be harvested in abundance.
Pumpkins, winter melons, loofahs, and other vegetables hung heavily on the branches, their leaves covered in morning dew that had turned into frost. These vegetables, after being exposed to frost, tasted even sweeter and softer, with a mellow, lingering vegetable aroma.
Shi Wen really liked autumn like this; to be precise, he really liked this harvest season.
After a busy six months, a bountiful harvest is the best consolation for those who have worked hard.
Just then, Shi Wen's ewe entered her due date.
His family has over 1,600 pregnant ewes this year, the largest number since the ranch reopened.
Even though Shi Wen was quite experienced, and the pregnant ewe seemed healthy under constant monitoring, so there was little chance of any problems, he was still a little nervous.
To prepare for the new lambs, he specially hired people to come to the ranch to clean and disinfect the ewes' birthing pens again, and added some facilities, such as air sterilizers and electric milking machines.
Shi Wen was worried that his own ranch couldn't handle the situation, so he specially asked Sikewell and his team to come and help with the births.
After all, 1,500 ewes are giving birth for the first time, and as first-time mothers, they may face various unexpected situations.
