The scale of the Lao Lian chicken farm is quite large, but it is not a professional modern chicken farm, but the kind of local chickens that are raised in the traditional way, and sold directly to high-end hotels in the city after raising.

Those hotels do not dare to collect chickens from retail investors, for fear of receiving chickens that grow up in garbage, although they don't look very good here, but they are actually absolutely clean, and you can buy them with confidence.

But today seems to be a little different.

"Eh, where's the chicken?" Xiao Hei turned his head and asked the old man sitting behind him, "I remember that the chickens usually run all over the yard, why don't you see the chickens today?" ”

"What chickens, all the chickens are dead. The old man said angrily, "I died a few days ago, and I was very angry with the boss, didn't I go down there to get him medicine?"

"All dead!?" Xiao Hei and Fang Ze were startled, and hurriedly asked, "How is Lao Xi's health?" ”

"I came down and coughed all night, and I don't know how it is. But it's probably not much better. ”

Fang Ze and Xiao Hei listened to the old man's words, quickly got out of the car and walked towards the room where Lao Xi was.

Fang Ze and Xiao Hei walked to Lao Xi's room, and then saw Lao Xi lying on the bed with a white cloth on his head, Xiao Hei became nervous when he saw it, and immediately rushed to Lao Xi's body and shouted, "Lao Xi, Lao Shi, what's wrong with you, you must not leave us." If you hold on, I will take you to the hospital in the imperial capital immediately, if the hospital in the imperial capital can't save you, I will take you abroad for treatment, don't give up hope, I will definitely cure you. ”

"Get out. Lao Shi's angry voice came from the bed, "I'm not dead yet, you're like a mourner, when can you be serious." ”

"Be serious. Xiao Hei clasped his nostrils and looked at Lao Yu and said, "When I came in, I saw you like this, and I knew that you were fine." It should be a person who is sulking in life. It's good to scold. ”

"So you are still considerate and deliberately came here to be scolded, right?" Lao Xi and Xiao Hei exchanged a few words, and just now the old man handed a bottle of medicine to Lao Bei, Lao Bei ate a few tablets casually, and then sat up from the bed.

"Actually, it's nothing, don't worry, it's really just angry and can't figure it out. "Lao Yu knows that although Xiao Hei is not serious, he does care about himself. Just now, I guess this guy just wanted to test whether he still had the energy.

Now, it seems that there is still no problem.

"It's okay, it's scared the two of us to death. Fang Ze walked over and patted Lao Xi's shoulder, and then said to Lao Xi, "It's because of the problem of the chicken farm, if you can't do it, just throw it down and go, your video is okay now, when the time comes, I'll find a relationship to pull a few advertisements for you, you can have a duck neck shop or other store in the city, find someone to take care of you, you just go to take a look every day, and the quality of life won't be reduced too much." ”

"Not the problem. Lao Xi waved his hand, and then said to Fang Ze, "My batch of chickens is about to be slaughtered, and they died overnight." If it doesn't involve anything else, I'll just leave it alone. But I've signed contracts with several stores here, and now I can't give them chickens, so I have to pay liquidated damages, which is not a small amount. ”

"And. Lao Lian walked to the window of the house, pointed to the opposite yard, a few old people who were playing cards and said, "These are all my employees, my chicken farm is no longer running, these old people can't find jobs elsewhere, I have to find a way out for these people, otherwise some of them can really only go to ask for food." ”

"Didn't you also have the idea of not running a chicken farm before, what did you think at that time?" Fang Ze asked.

"At that time, I planned to give the chicken farm directly to these old people, so that they could rely on this chicken farm to support their retirement. But now the liquidated damages add up to almost 100,000, you have also seen this chicken farm, the only thing that is valuable is the chicken, and other things can't be sold for a few dollars even if they sell scrap iron, how can I be embarrassed to say that I will leave the chicken farm to them when I leave. ”

"Wait. Fang Ze asked Lao Xi not to say it for a while, and then thought of two key points, and asked Lao Zhen, "First, this liquidated damages are a bit high, how much money do you have to sell chickens at one time, and the liquidated damages are 100,000." The second is, what did you mean, all the chickens in this game are dead?"

"It's all dead. Lao Xi first answered Fang Ze's second question, "There are thousands of chickens in total, regardless of the big or small chickens, basically all of them are dead, and there are only a dozen of them still alive." ”

"And then the liquidated damages, to be honest, are not much. My local chicken was raised for 180 days before it was slaughtered, and the cost of raising a chicken was about 50 yuan, and we sold it to the hotel for 80 yuan. I have to sell nearly 2,000 chickens at one time, and the payment for the goods is more than 100,000 yuan. ”

Lao Ji paused for a moment, and then said, "And my chickens are sold to those high-end hotels, and these hotels will send their own cars to pull them in the future. Some hotel specialties are made with local chicken, and suddenly there is no chicken, and the loss of people is also very large. ”

"I've been thinking about it for the past few days, if I sell the house, pay back the liquidated damages, and dismiss my subordinates. ”

"You sold the house, where do you live?" Fang Ze immediately asked.

"Stay with me. Xiao Hei, who was standing behind, raised his hand with a grin, "I said it was because of something." I thought you hadn't seen anyone for a few days because you had other friends. What is the matter that can be solved with money, you sell your house to me, and then I lend it to you to live. ”

"I'm not a hypocritical person, if it was really just because of money, I would have called you and asked you to lend me my wife. There are just other reasons. ”

"You mean that the chickens in the chicken farm are dying, and there is another hidden secret?" Fang Ze looked at Lao Xi and asked.

"Hmm. Lao Shi nodded and said, "Although I don't stay here often, I'm also familiar with raising chickens." If you want to say that I didn't prevent the epidemic, it's normal for these chickens to get sick and die seven or eight hundred, or more than half. But almost all of them are dead, and there is definitely a problem. ”

Lao Lian looked at the chicken farm outside and sighed, "I don't understand this matter, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well in the future." ”

As soon as Lao Xi's words fell, an old man who was not very old walked in and said to Lao Xi, "Boss Ao, there is a boss outside, saying that he wants to talk to you about business." ”

"Okay, I'll go out and have a look. Lao Ji heard someone coming and was about to go out.

Merchant?

Fang Ze and Xiao Hei glanced at each other, and then the two hurriedly followed Lao Yu and walked out.
