The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man

After Leng Yuan finished speaking, everyone looked toward Chen Beiguo.

They wanted to see what Chen Beiguo’s reaction would be.

Chen Beiguo was completely unprepared, and his expression soured.

Seeing this, the crowd suspected Leng Yuan was acting on his own authority and were left speechless.

’At first, we thought Leng Yuan was some big shot, but now it seems like there’s something wrong with him!’

Such a sweet deal, just thrown away like that.

The county magistrate also didn’t understand what Leng Yuan meant, so he couldn’t help but repeat his words.

”Your team really doesn’t want a single pig?”

Leng Yuan nodded. ”We don’t.”

”But I have one condition.”

This piqued everyone’s interest. They were eager to hear what he was thinking.

Leng Yuan began, ”I don’t want the quota for three hundred piglets. Instead, I want to raise eighty young sows for half a year. After six months, we will return them to the other villages.”

’Forget turning down the quota, he’s going to raise them for free?’

’Is there really such a good deal in the world?’

The crowd was so stunned by this sudden windfall that their heads were spinning. They wondered if there was something wrong with their ears.

’We must have misheard. Someone else will raise our pigs for free and then just give them back to us? And then we take the grown pigs and sell them for money? Is that what’s happening?’

However, some people figured it out: Leng Yuan wanted the piglets from these sows.

’But the math doesn’t work out like that.’

’Even if he gets the piglets instead of the sows, how many can you get in just six months?’

’Besides, how much feed would it take to raise so many pigs?’

’Then he’d have to feed the sows and the new piglets. How much more feed would that require?’

They were raising pigs to make money. With Leng Yuan’s method, forget making a profit—the Qingshan Team would go bankrupt trying to cover his losses.

It wasn’t just the crowd who was dumbfounded; Chen Beiguo himself was floored.

The county magistrate quickly came to his senses.

He hadn’t interacted with Leng Yuan much, but he knew Leng Yuan’s uncle was a capable man. ’Could it be that his uncle has some special method?’

But no matter how you looked at it, this plan to raise pigs for others for free for six months seemed incredibly foolish.

Village Chief Xu and the accountant were still in a daze, unable to process what was happening.

Finally, the county magistrate glanced over at Chen Beiguo, who in turn looked at Leng Yuan.

Leng Yuan gave him a reassuring look and spoke in a low voice.

”Trust me.”

For a moment, Chen Beiguo’s heart was filled with anxiety.

But he knew Leng Yuan’s personality. He would never joke about something like this. He probably really did have a plan.

Though he felt completely uncertain, he nodded.

The county magistrate understood the situation and asked the crowd.

”Do you have any objections?”

Of course not.

Everyone unanimously agreed.

Someone was offering to raise the pigs for them. Why wouldn’t they? It was a freebie!

’What in the world is better than getting something for free?’

However, they still needed a plan for how to divide the three hundred piglets.

While everyone else scrambled desperately to claim their share of the piglets, the Qingshan Team’s side was silent and remarkably quiet.

Chen Beiguo took the opportunity to speak.

”Leng Yuan, do you have some other plan?”

At this, Village Chief Xu and the accountant also turned back, their eyes fixed intently on Leng Yuan.

If Leng Yuan said he had no plan at this point, they’d feel like dying.

They had waited for years, working hard to increase production, just for the Qingshan Team to finally get a quota for raising piglets. Now, with a single sentence, Leng Yuan had not only given away the piglets but also offered to raise pigs for others.

If he didn’t have a good explanation, they would have no way to face the villagers back home.

Leng Yuan said in a low voice, ”Don’t worry. I definitely won’t let the team lose money. But it’s not convenient to discuss the details here. We’ll talk when we get back.”

Since Leng Yuan said that, the others could only suppress their urge to ask more questions.

While they were talking, the matter of the piglets was settled.
