Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain
Chapter 992 New Spending Plan
Only Feng Huanping and Yue Feng were in the living room, so Feng Huanping didn't hold back and said very frankly, "I think they should have held a meeting and reached a consensus!"
“Yes, I noticed that too. When Evan was speaking, his companions didn’t stop him or react with surprise. They remained very calm! Why do you think they did that?” Yue Feng replied and continued to ask.
Feng Huanping said, "I think they most likely want to maintain a long-term friendship with you! By visiting the farms on the mountain and going hunting with the hunting team, they have gained a deeper understanding of you! Then they assessed that you are worth temporarily giving up some small benefits to win them over!"
Otherwise, knowing how Americans do things, I wouldn't have agreed so readily!
Hearing this, Yue Feng nodded. In fact, he thought so too. The black falcon was Yue Feng's trump card and the core target of overseas falcon farms. Only professionals like him could understand the commercial value of the black falcon.
"Brother Feng, your judgment is correct!" Yue Feng nodded.
"You really want to be friends with these people?" Feng Huanping asked, somewhat puzzled, seeing Yue Feng's calm reaction.
Yue Feng grinned: "Having more friends means having more options! They're not haggling over money, so why should I be worried?"
Feng Huanping glanced out the window, then lowered his voice and leaned forward to remind Yue Feng, "I think their ultimate goal is to get the black falcons from you in the future, which will significantly enhance the commercial competitiveness of the breeding farm!"
Although Zhang Chaochao and I also want to get black falcons from you, we are just doing it as a hobby, and we don't follow the same path as professional breeding farms abroad!
Have you considered this: if they get their hands on the Black Falcon, then your Middle Eastern clients won't be exclusively yours anymore! At that point, those clients will have more options, directly impacting your pricing power!
Hearing Feng Huanping's words, Yue Feng felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
If Yue Feng weren't a reborn cheater, his limited perspective and the constraints of his era would have caused him to overlook many things. Feng Huanping's reminder would have saved him from suffering losses.
It's quite precious to have a friend who dares to take the risk of reminding you about something that involves real money and interests. From this perspective, Feng Huanping is truly putting himself in Yue Feng's shoes.
Yue Feng picked up his teacup and poured tea for Feng Huanping: "Brother Feng, I've also considered what you've said!"
The black falcon is just my basic weapon; a truly top-tier falcon isn't just about having black feathers!
The reason I've gone to such great lengths to gather outstanding eagles from different bloodlines is so that I can select and breed even better falcons in the future! As long as we keep improving, we will never lose our competitiveness!
Thank you for reminding me. This really shows they treat me like their own brother. If it were someone else, even if they saw this, they might not have bothered to point it out!
Feng Huanping grinned: "As long as you know what's going on! Your personality is just right for me! I probably wouldn't say anything to anyone else. Alright, I've finished talking about the important stuff. I need to go back to my room and rest. My eyes are too tired to keep open!"
"Okay, just let me know if you need anything!"
"it is good!"
……
Yue Feng watched Feng Huanping carry the bear cub into the house, then yawned and went back to his own room.
In the bedroom, Wang Xiaona was still awake. Because she was going to entertain guests for dinner in the living room that evening, Kaixin had been sent to his grandmother's room by Wang Xiaona, so now only Wang Xiaona was on the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Are you done with your work?" Wang Xiaona turned over when she heard the noise.
"Yeah, Brother Feng went back to his room to rest too! I thought you were asleep!"
"No, I was just waiting for you! Did those Americans agree to your asking price while we were eating?" Wang Xiaona asked.
Yue Feng nodded: "Okay! In addition to the eagle, there's an extra 500,000 in cash! They're going back to Beijing the day after tomorrow, and I have to go with them to bring the eagle and the money back!"
"Five hundred thousand!!" Upon hearing this number, Wang Xiaona gasped.
Wang Xiaona manages all the accounts and funds of the village's mountain products sales point, and has seen a lot of money before. But she was still somewhat surprised to hear about the huge sum of 500,000 yuan.
"What, do you think it's too much?" Yue Feng took off his shoes, then poured water from the thermos under the window and put his steaming feet into the foot bath.
"The money you made trading those two eagles is more than the total capital of our mountain products trading shop, including principal and interest!" Wang Xiaona said with sparkling eyes.
"This is nothing! I just haven't given up yet. If we sell the black falcons that we specially kept on the mountain to the Americans, we might be able to get a million dollars!" Yue Feng said confidently.
"Then why not sell? Our big black eagle will still be around next spring!"
"Don't sell! It's not the right time yet! Save it for later, we can sell it for more!"
"Wow, you're really something! What are you planning to do with this money?" Wang Xiaona counted on her fingers, doing a quick mental calculation. She felt that if she had 500,000 yuan in her hands, it would be more than enough for anything.
Yue Feng truthfully stated, "Last time I went to Beijing, I made a large sum of money from those white-robed men in the Middle East. I entrusted that money to Jinlong, asking him to help me buy several more courtyard houses in Beijing!"
I haven't decided what to do with this money yet!
“That’s 500,000! 1,000 yuan can build four rooms, so 500,000 yuan can build 500! Why buy so many houses in Beijing? We’re not going to Beijing for now, and even if we did, our family couldn’t fit that many!” Wang Xiaona said, counting on her fingers.
Yue Feng shook his head without explaining in detail, but secretly began to consider how to use the 500,000 yuan.
Located at the foot of the mountains in the northeastern forest region, the natural environment there limits to the direction of development.
Although Yue Feng had the Wang family as his backer, he didn't plan to develop his career in Beijing long-term. His relatives and friends were all in his hometown. Back home, Yue Feng was practically treated like a local tyrant; as long as it wasn't illegal or criminal, he could do whatever he wanted.
Lost in thought, he didn't know how much time had passed before Wang Xiaona gently nudged him with her elbow.
"Fell asleep?"
"Huh? No! I'm thinking about what to do with this money!" Yue Feng snapped out of his reverie and reached out to rub his feet, which were still soaking in hot water.
Have you thought of it?
"No! We've already covered the cost of road repairs. The ground will be ready to thaw next year! We don't need this money! We don't need it for our daily lives either, especially with the farm up in the mountains..."
"How about we expand the scale of the farm?" Wang Xiaona suggested.
On ordinary days, Xiao Tao, Xiao Wen, and Xiao Wu would occasionally interact with Wang Xiaona. For example, when Yue Feng was not at home, they would regularly go up the mountain to deliver supplies, and it was Wang Xiaona who would arrange it.
As the breeding eagles begin to reproduce, the farm's cages are still sufficient for the time being, but there are not many spares.
If we wait until next year's breeding season ends and the eaglets leave the nest to be separated into their own enclosures, we'll have to rebuild the houses. Clearly, Wang Xiaona's suggestion wasn't just a casual remark; it was definitely the result of careful consideration.
Yue Feng nodded: "After the spring, the eagle enclosure will definitely need to expand! If that doesn't work, we'll also take over the mountain area of Nuanquanzi in the south and rebuild the second-phase breeding farm!" "Nuanquanzi? Where? I've never heard of such a place before?" Wang Xiaona paused slightly when she heard the words Nuanquanzi, thought for a moment but couldn't recall such a place, and asked curiously.
When Yue Feng heard his wife ask that question, he was stunned, and his heart skipped a beat.
The place Yuefeng calls Nuanquanzi is still just a small mountain stream that flows year-round at this point in time. It is undeveloped and surrounded by unremarkable secondary forests. Because the soil is mainly sandy and relatively barren, no villagers are willing to contract it out.
In Yue Feng's memory, this area was contracted by Zhang Junhong in his previous life. Later, he dug a small mountain stream that flowed all year round into a hot spring and used the geothermal energy to grow greenhouses.
Thinking of this, Yue Feng didn't care that his hands were wet with the foot bath water, and suddenly slapped his forehead.
Undeveloped hot springs! Geothermal greenhouses!
Now that I've just earned this much money, I have somewhere to spend it!
In those days, logistics and transportation were severely limited. In winter, vegetables were mostly limited to the same few varieties. Even when foreign guests like Evan came to visit, it was difficult to offer decent vegetables to suit the season. Off-season vegetables, which were common in the market, were now extremely precious. Otherwise, Chef Niu wouldn't have valued ordinary leeks so much back in the coal mine canteen.
"Shopkeeper, what's wrong?" Wang Xiaona was startled by Yue Feng's reaction.
Yue Feng shook his head with a smile: "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of something! I heard my master say that there's a small water source south of the breeding farm, it seems to be a warm spring! It doesn't thaw in winter, and when I was telling you just now, I subconsciously called it a warm spring!"
"Even if it doesn't thaw, what can you do? At most, you'll just save on drilling wells! Are you really planning to build the second phase of Eagle House in that area?" Wang Xiaona scoffed, not taking it seriously.
"Don't rush to make a decision, let's wait until the money is in place! Let me think about it!" Yue Feng didn't go into detail about his plans, but kept this piece of information that suddenly came to mind firmly in his heart.
Soon, Yue Feng finished washing his feet, dried them with a cloth, poured out the water, checked the doors and windows, and quickly took off his clothes and got into bed.
The bed was warm and cozy thanks to his wife, and after turning off the lights, he lay down comfortably. Wang Xiaona even tucked the blankets around her husband.
The fatigue from a whole day's hike quickly took its toll, and before Wang Xiaona could fall asleep, the person next to her was already snoring.
That night, Yue Feng slept very restlessly. Not only was his whole body sore, but his mind kept replaying the memory of Zhang Junhong using the warm spring geothermal energy to grow greenhouses.
Northeast China has long, extremely cold winters, resulting in low ground temperatures. This makes it difficult for old-style greenhouses to retain heat effectively, making it very challenging to grow vegetables out of season. In addition, the variety of vegetables that can be grown is very limited.
However, with the existence of geothermal hot springs, the feasibility of growing off-season vegetables in greenhouses becomes much higher. Although Yue Feng has never grown vegetables in greenhouses before, he knows that Zhang Junhong succeeded in his previous life, and Yue Feng can definitely invest some money to start this small business in this life.
Even if Yue Feng is too busy, he can delegate the task to Xiao Wen, Xiao Wu, or Xiao Tao.
If done well, you can not only make a lot of money, but also get the freshest off-season fruits and vegetables and other ingredients, which is definitely a win-win situation.
In a daze, Yue Feng heard a rooster crowing outside and opened his eyes.
As he tried to turn over, the soreness in his limbs brought Yue Feng back to his senses.
Every year after a snowfall, the first time he goes into the mountains to hunt, it's inevitable that he'll feel sore all over. His activity level on a regular day is definitely not as high as when he's hunting, but Yue Feng is already used to it.
Yue Feng tried to get out of bed, got dressed, and got off the kang (a heated brick bed).
Yue Feng stepped out of the house and glanced at the yard, then scratched his head helplessly.
Fortunately, we didn't spend the night on the mountain when we went hunting yesterday. It snowed again in the middle of last night, and there was at least eight centimeters of snow in the yard. It must have snowed quite heavily in the second half of the night.
Yue Feng put on his hat to cover his ears, then went outside and busied himself shoveling snow.
The yard and the street outside need to be cleaned up, otherwise if you step on it and it hardens, it will freeze solid again after thawing, just like a mirror, and people will fall if they are not careful.
Before Yue Feng had even finished cleaning his yard, Xiao Tao and the three brothers, Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu, arrived fully armed.
The guys weren't much better off than Yue Feng; their bodies ached all over, and they were grimacing as they worked.
The brothers lent a hand and cleaned up the yard and the street outside before rubbing their hands together and going inside to warm up.
Meanwhile, in the back kitchen, Wang Xiaona had already gotten up early and prepared breakfast.
Last night I reheated the stewed meat, made some fried dough sticks, and also cooked a tomato and egg soup.
"Manager, is breakfast ready? Should we deliver it to them as usual?" Wang Xiaona asked casually.
Yue Feng shook his head. They had been busy in the yard for so long, but Brother Feng still hadn't woken up. This meant that everyone was still sleeping in bed, their bodies aching and it was cold outside. Breakfast would definitely have to be postponed.
Yue Feng shook his head and whispered, "No need, let's keep it warm in the pot first, and we'll eat first! If I'm not mistaken, they probably had a hard time getting breakfast! After wandering around in the mountains all day, they must be sore all over!"
Wang Xiaona nodded: "Then I'll do as you say. You guys eat first! I'll serve you some soup!"
"Okay! I'll drag the fawn I hunted in the yard yesterday into the house. I'll clean it up later and stew it for lunch!" Yue Feng replied, turned around and went out of the house. He dragged a fawn out of the snowdrift and carried it to the back room of the kitchen.
After a night, the fawns were frozen solid. If they were cooked at noon, they should thaw now.
The four brothers sat around the dinner table, eating and drinking in silence. After they were full, they put down their chopsticks and sat back in their chairs, all grimacing and stiff.
Yue Feng pursed his lips and teased Xiao Tao, saying, "It's snowing again outside! Shall we continue into the mountains after the guests have gone back?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tao scratched his head and glanced at Yue Feng: "Huh? Didn't you say last night that you were going to Beijing to pick up Ying? Why don't you rest for a few days before going?"
"Haha, I thought you were a real warrior who wasn't afraid of sore muscles all over. I was just kidding!" Yue Feng grinned.
"Brother, you're just kidding me!"
The guys were just joking around when Wang Mingyu jogged over.
"Brother-in-law, it's BJ calling, specifically asking for Zhang Chaochao because it's urgent!!" (End of Chapter)
