Song Tan's Notes

As always, Boss Chang wanted everything, and Song Tan responded with a string of "uh-huhs" before turning to ask Seventh Cousin:
"The small whitefish are at their best right now. How about we keep a batch, dry them, and sell some online later?"

The whitebait are in their breeding season from June to August. Their flesh is tender and their bones are soft. When they are caught at this time, whether they are dried, fried, or simply sun-dried, they can be stewed or stir-fried with some pickled cabbage. They are fresh, fragrant, and delicious, and go perfectly with rice.

And you don't even need to spit out the bones; you can chew them clean with a crunch.

After thinking about it for a moment, Seventh Uncle immediately nodded: "Keep some. These can be stored, and we can give them away later."

but……

He was a little reluctant: "Do we really have to sell so many fish all at once?"

Song Tan was also a little reluctant, as many of the fish hadn't grown up yet, but they couldn't sort them one by one when they were catching them.

but……

“I checked the weather forecast, and it’s going to rain for a while. The rainwater will go into the rivers and ponds, making the water murky. I’m afraid the fish we catch will taste muddy.”

"After all, we sell them at such a high price. If the quality is compromised, it would be a loss."

This is true.

But nobody paid any attention to the continuous rain.

Summer rain, it pours down for a while, but it only lasts for two or three days at most.

Besides, weather forecasts aren't always accurate; many forecasts predict rain, but then nothing happens.

But I'm still thinking about what Song Tan mentioned earlier about acquiring land in town. Secretary Zhu and Yun Duo have been running around for quite a while about it...

It's obvious that building a house is very expensive, so it's normal for children to want to have more money in their hands.

Seventh Uncle nodded, then asked, "When will the houses in your town go on sale? Let me know when they're available, I'd like to buy a couple too."

Song Tan hadn't expected the topic to jump so far, and asked in surprise:

"What do you need those houses in town for?"

The houses in the village were all renovated last year, and now they have air conditioning, water, electricity, WiFi, and even surveillance cameras. Is the house in the city not enough? Will they have to move to the town to live when they get old?
Seventh Uncle glared at her and said, "Then don't worry about it. Anyway, I have money. Maybe one day you'll be short of money and have to come to me."

Song Tan was both amused and exasperated.

That old woman's temper is so fickle, it changes in an instant. Seventh Uncle definitely has some savings, but with her things selling for such high prices these days, it's impossible to scrape together a million without some effort.

Putting everything else aside, the food wasn't even ready yet, and when we discussed with Boss Chang about making a 100 million yuan prepayment, he was overjoyed.

Song Tan was unaware of the old man's good intentions, but she appreciated his kindness.

Oh dear! Lu Chuan must be exhausted after a long day of driving. I'll go keep him company tonight!

Just as I was pondering this, Qiaoqiao came running downstairs again: "Sister, is there anything else in the house to sell? Let me know in advance, I'm going to Xiao Yang's place next."

You won't be able to sell it to Xiao Yang.

Song Tan stroked his fluffy hair: "It's nothing. If the family wants to sell something, just put the link in the store. You don't need to worry about it."

"But if you go to Xiao Yang's place, you can also livestream Xiao Yang's farm."

It's hot, and I can never get enough livestream time. Qiaoqiao has performed well this year, and I have to complete the task so that we can continue to discuss prices next year.

After all, although the new live streaming platform is not large in scale, it offers a high degree of freedom. Since everyone is going to be live streaming anyway, it's a waste not to make this money.

Add to that the good news from the live streaming platform earlier, saying that live streaming to help farmers in Baiyu County brought in more new users than expected for the entire quarter by 36%... Well, who knows, prices might even go up next year.

It's so strange, why does live-streaming to help farmers attract so many new users? Are people online so enthusiastic about this kind of semi-public welfare cause these days?

Will she accept this kind of job again next time?
Qiaoqiao was overjoyed: "Great! I was just planning to take my online friends to see Xiao Yang's huge, flat farm! We don't have one like that here!"

Seeing his enthusiastic expression, Song Tan asked curiously, "Have you packed your luggage?"

Qiaoqiao nodded repeatedly, her eyes filled with anticipation: "Xiao Yang said that I only need to bring two sets of clothes to change into, as he has everything."

"Sister." Qiaoqiao suddenly softened her voice and looked at her, her eyes full of expectation.

Song Tan couldn't help but touch his hair again—it had just been washed, felt clean and refreshing, fluffy, and incredibly smooth; the texture was actually quite wonderful.

"Ok?"

"Xiao Yang asked me if I could buy a ticket to leave today..."

Song Tan smiled and said, "Oh, no wonder you're so well-behaved. You wanted to leave as soon as you got back."

However, being able to look forward to something with such happiness is itself a kind of joy.

“Okay.” Song Tan readily agreed. “You can buy the ticket now. I’ll have… well, Brother Lu Chuan just got back, he must be a little tired. I’ll drive you to the high-speed rail station.”

"After you get off the high-speed train, you can take a taxi or the subway to the airport, right?"

Yuncheng doesn't have an airport; if you want to take a plane, you have to go to another city first.

But Xiao Yang's high-speed rail ticket didn't go directly there either, requiring a transfer at another station... After thinking it over, flying was still the most direct option.

"As for food, it's not easy to carry around anyway, so I'll just send it to you by express delivery."

Qiaoqiao jumped up instantly: "Okay, okay! I'll go buy the tickets right now!"

"I can do everything! If I don't know something, I can ask the navigation app, and if I still don't know, I can ask a police officer! Don't worry, sister!"

Fine!

The children's hearts are completely set on taking flight!

……

Qiaoqiao's first time staying at a friend's house should have been a big deal, but the Song family raises children in a rather rough and tumble way.

Even Ulan, who was always most worried about him, thought: Anyway, he can buy tickets himself, take the bus, has a cell phone, and knows how to find the police if something happens. He's tall and strong, so he won't get lost...

That solves it!
Xiao Yang's family is doing very well! Xiao Yang is a top student who has won a gold medal, so we're all at ease!
After Song Tan took the car keys, she thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to the city soon anyway, so why don't we go to the emergency room to see my aunt? Qiao Qiao, why don't we go together?"

Qiaoqiao nodded quickly: "Yes, yes! I want to buy a new refrigerator for my aunt. Their refrigerator can't freeze ice cubes. Lingqi has to scrape together money from his work every day..."

That being said, Lu Chuan has already bought a new air conditioner, so he probably won't need to use a fan to blow ice cubes anymore, right?
Besides, even though Qiaoqiao spent the money, her aunt will still feel heartbroken when she sees it.

She cherishes every penny equally.

"Forget it!"

Song Tan advised her, "Your aunt is upset and still recovering, so please don't buy anything and avoid upsetting her."

"Let's go find Dr. Guo first and buy some refreshing tea bags." (End of Chapter)
