A week later, Yang Dezhu finally got the news. It is said that Camel Ridge can be contracted, but it must be inspected by the cadres of the county forestry bureau before the contract can be signed at a fixed price.

After waiting for another two days, a section chief Wang from the Forestry Bureau finally came to inspect it. This cadre is very decent, and it seems that he also knows the situation in Camel Ridge relatively well. He knew very well that there were not many projects that could be done in the absence of water here, so he did not embarrass Yang Dezhu. The price set is not very high. 20,000 in 10 years, 35,000 in 20 years. However, he repeatedly stressed that it was not permissible to destroy the forest vegetation.

Yang Dezhu did not have much money in his hands, so he only signed a ten-year contract. After signing the contract, the scope of the contracted area was confirmed, and then Section Chief Wang went back. Of course, before he went back, he also gladly accepted Yang Dezhu's warm hospitality, as well as some mountain gifts.

Since then, Yang Dezhu has the right to develop the two mountain ranges of Camel Ridge. It's just that this development can't destroy the natural vegetation resources.

However, the mountain land was successfully contracted. But all the savings in Yang Dezhu's hands were almost spent. And this summer is coming to an end. When autumn comes, there's not much to do in the mountains. And although Yang Dezhu can hold the contract, monopolize the mountain goods within the Camel Ridge after the autumn. But that's not much after all. And if there are villagers from the same village who go to collect, Yang Dezhu may not be able to pull down his face and drive people away.

So Yang Dezhu had to find a way to use this mountainous area to do something in the autumn season to recoup his investment. And the cost of this investment should not be too large. Otherwise, he really can't afford it.

After thinking hard at home for two days, I specially called Yu Liya and Liu Qianqian to discuss it. In the end, they decided to use the more than 10,000 yuan of funds in the store to raise a batch of understory chickens by themselves.

In fact, there are many aspects to consider in making this decision, first of all, they don't have much money in their hands, and they can't do anything else. In addition, there are many old customers in the store who have recognized the local chickens sold in their store. Moreover, the advantage of understory chickens is that they let the chickens hunt wild insects in the forest during the day, which can not only save feed costs, but also improve the quality of chicken.

And the only situation that is not very favorable now is that it is a little late to raise chickens. If you start raising chickens now, there is no guarantee that the chickens will grow up smoothly before winter.

However, this method can actually be avoided. Because they can spend more money to buy chickens that the villagers have been raising for more than a month. Then all the problems are solved.

In the next few days, Yang Dezhu was busy. He first went to Blue Ocean City to retrieve the money, and then bought a large number of nylon nets by the way. Then, with the help of two brothers-in-law, a large open space with a net and a large tree was enclosed in a large forest with a few acres of land, and a layered chicken cage that could hold hundreds of chickens was customized. Then he asked his two brothers-in-law to help him buy the chickens raised by the villagers.

He himself secretly bought a thick water pipe dozens of meters long, and then dug a ditch in the morning and evening, and secretly led the spring water into a small reservoir hidden in a secret place.

As more and more chickens were purchased and put into the net wall, Yang Dezhu had to find a way to buy some corn and make some supplementary feed.

In this way, Yang Dezhu set up a tent in the forest of Camel Ridge and began his career as a chicken farmer. Except for going to Blue Ocean City to deliver mountain goods and asking the eldest sister to replace him for a day or two, he stayed in the forest almost day and night.

During this time, the acquired adult local chickens gradually helped Yang Dezhu's mountain goods store to become famous. At Yu Liya's request, Yang Dezhu would take pictures of the growth of his chickens every half a month, and then put them in the mountain goods store for customers to supervise. At the same time, it can be regarded as an advance publicity.

After the hot summer, the golden autumn came quietly, and the understory chickens raised by Yang Dezhu have grown up a lot, and they are all in good spirits. It's just that so many chickens have also attracted a lot of weasels to roam around. If it weren't for Yang Dezhu's chicken cage, and Yang Dezhu took good care of it. Presumably, under the threat of natural enemies, there will be heavy losses.

However, the close supervision also brought the same benefit that Yang Dezhu did not know. That is Li Ergui, and a few of their hooligans wandered around the neighborhood several times, but they didn't find any opportunities to make a difference.

However, tigers also have times when they take naps. One day, when Yang Dezhu went out to buy corn for supplementary feed. Li Ergui and the others quietly walked into the net of free-range chickens. I got rid of chicken feathers and caught four or five chickens. If it weren't for the sound of motorcycles coming from afar, maybe I would have lost more.

In the evening, Yang Dezhu came back and found that the chicken was lost, so he looked around, but except for the chicken feathers in one place, he didn't find any clues that he used again. At this time, Jin Zi seemed to know that Yang Dezhu was looking for the lost chicken. Squeaked a few times and led the way ahead. Yang Dezhu was naturally surprised when he saw that Jin still had the ability to track, and hurriedly followed behind. Then Jin Zi took Yang Dezhu around half of the hillside, and then went straight towards the county seat of Maoshan. Apparently, the thief who stole the chicken went to the county seat on a motorcycle. It's not easy to chase anymore, and when you chase it to the county seat, you must not be able to find it.

So that night, Yang Dezhu made a phone call and told Yu Liya and the two about the situation. Yu Liya and the others repaid it when they heard this. After all, there are still their shares in this project, and they are naturally interested. So early the next morning, Yu Liya left Liu Qianqian to look after the store by herself. She went to buy a laptop, and a few surveillance cameras came directly to the county seat by car. Then Yang Dezhu was taken to the woodland where chickens were raised on a motorcycle.

Since Yang Dezhu has been contracted for ten years, Murakami has already solved the problem of electrification for Yang Dezhu. So Yu Liya installed the camera and adjusted the computer program. Then the rest of the time was spent on how to use the computer for Yang Dezhu.

Yang Dezhu has always been more interested in computers, but no one taught him well. With this opportunity this time, he naturally studied very seriously. And Yu Liya finally saw Yang Dezhu's learning ability this time.

Unconsciously, the two of them stayed in Yang Dezhu's tent until the second half of the night. When they noticed the time on the computer, both of them were a little embarrassed. Yang Dezhu forgot to send Yu Liya back to his house to rest because he was patronizing the study computer. And Yu Liya is because it is the first time she stays alone with a person of the opposite sex until late at night.

Since it was too late, sending Yu Liya back at this time would have to wake up her mother, and it would be quite troublesome. So after asking for Yu Liya's consent, Yang Dezhu set up another tent next to him, and let Yu Liya also rest in the mountains.

They all returned to the tent, knowing in their hearts that there was a person of the opposite sex living in the tent next to them, how could they not let the two of them feel fluctuating in their hearts. So it's not so surprising that the next morning, both of them became panda-eyed.

In the morning, when I rode a motorcycle back to Yang's house for breakfast. Mother Yang saw that the two of them were extremely enthusiastic when they both had panda eyes, and kept serving Yu Liya vegetables, which made Yu Liya even more nervous, and unconsciously seemed to have a different kind of feelings in her heart.

After installing computer monitoring, Yang Dezhu naturally became interested in learning computers in addition to raising chickens. Yu Liya's rough explanation in one night could not satisfy Yang Dezhu's strong desire to learn, and the next day he went to the county bookstore to buy books related to computer introduction. I started teaching myself how to use computers. And when there was a problem during the period, he took a notebook to record it, or asked Yu Liya for advice in person when delivering the goods, or went directly to Uncle Lao Gen's house to call Yu Liya. So in this way, there is more communication between the two people.

After coming and going, the relationship between the two people seems to be much closer. Although neither of them has made it clear, there are signs of love. It's just that Yu Liya is a girl, so she won't take the initiative to say anything, and Yang Dezhu has always felt that Yu Liya is beautiful and has a high education, and she is a little unworthy of others. He was afraid that after finding out, if Yu Liya didn't mean this, the relationship between the two would become awkward again.

In fact, there is never a rationality in such a thing as feelings, so it is possible for a princess to fall in love with a beggar, or a beautiful woman to fall in love with a hooligan. And there is no right or wrong way to deal with feelings. It's just that the benevolent see the benevolent and the wise see the wise. Anyway, there is a reason for how to choose. Only after the fact can we know whether it is worth it or not, and often at this time, regret is in vain.

Yang Dezhu had such a feeling, because suddenly, Yu Liya went abroad to study without even saying hello to him. This was only known by Yang Dezhu from Liu Qianqian's mouth when he went to deliver goods before winter. At that time, Yang Dezhu was stunned for a long time, and suddenly had a sense of grievance that he wanted to cry. He suddenly figured it out, his feelings for Liya should be bold to say. What if you don't get a response? At least that's how you really feel. It's just that it's too late to say anything at this time. Yang Dezhu had no choice but to leave a little gloomily.

Liu Qianqian watched Yang Dezhu leave with some words to say, and finally did not open her mouth to explain the reason for Yu Liya's sudden departure. just silently took care of the store with the newcomer Sister Zhao.

Yu Liya's expenses for studying abroad rely on the share dividends in the store. So she occasionally discusses things in the store with Liu Qianqian. It's just that every time I want to ask something about Yang Dezhu, I'm embarrassed to say it. And after a long time, it slowly fades away. After all, if you don't find out the relationship, who can remember who for how long. Maybe only when you are alone in reminiscing about the past, can you occasionally remember a time when your heart throbbed for someone.
