CHAPTER 601: CHAPTER 22: LOVE RIVALS MEET (EXTRA CHAPTER FOR 10 FANS, SENIOR BROTHER & YEZI)
This batch of crabs was selected by Uncle Lu according to the requirements of the supplying hotel; each crab weighing exactly four liang and nine qian, totaling fifty crabs with the price naturally not low, each crab costing US$55.
"Did you raise these crabs?" Suppressing the anger in his heart, Huang Tengchong seemed to have found the crab thief. Had he not been in such a rush today, only bringing Meixin with him, and not been a match in a fight against this tall crab-raising youngster, he would have gone up and started scolding the other party long ago.
"Yes, don’t look down on this young lad’s age; his skills are quite impressive. He is a top-notch crab farmer," Mao Dazhu took the opportunity to boast. Despite the boasting, most of it was true; Uncle Lu had made a few trips here and had spoken highly of Yezi to gain him some favorable impressions.
"Young brother is pretty amazing," Meixin sensed something amiss, quickly stepped forward, and pulled Huang Tengchong aside, "It’s rare for Brother Chong to praise someone. He is the general manager of Huang’s Breeding; perhaps you could sit down together and have a discussion sometime."
"Huang’s Breeding?" Yezi’s mouth twitched oddly.
"Ah, isn’t that the Boss Huang who appears on TV every day, what’s his name... Huang Tengchong, right, that’s the name," Mao Dazhu slapped his forehead and came up with the name.
Still holding the box, Yezi’s fingers inadvertently broke the foam, and cold water dripped out from the box.
He really was muddled, going round and round; Huang Tengchong was far in the distance but close at hand, and Yezi recognized this face.
Bai Family Ancient Town had been tailoring the vicious foreign woman who made bird specimens and followed that translator around.
"Hello, Mr. Huang," Milliseconds of thoughts raced through his mind, and within a second, Yezi had made a decision, stretching out his hand with a harmless smile on his face.
Seeing the very friendly attitude of Yezi, Huang Tengchong, who had deliberately let Meixin reveal his identity, wanted to see some suspicion from the other party; if it was someone related to Huang or someone who had stolen the crabs, they would surely expose some flaws.
The person in front of him, no, the mustache at the corners of his mouth was soft fuzz, unmistakably was a youth who hadn’t shed his naivety. Though tall, he had a pair of very honest eyes. At a glance, he really didn’t seem like someone who would deceive others.
Could it be that he was mistaken, but these crabs...
"Indeed, a hero from youth; I see these crabs look good, what variety are they from?" Huang Tengchong put the foam box lid back, took the tissue handed by Meixin, and wiped his hands clean.
"The Hairy Crabs are from Dongting Lake, but we used some secret recipes when raising them, so they grow very well," Yezi calmly handed the Hairy Crabs to Mao Dazhu.
"Crabs from Dongting Lake? This is the first time I’ve heard of it," Huang Tengchong’s doubts piled up; he had been in the breeding industry for many years but had never heard of a secret formula for raising Hairy Crabs. To hide his eagerness, he picked up the cushion he was previously sitting on.
"Yes, they are produced wherever there is lake water, not only can they be produced, but they can also grow exponentially and look exactly the same," Yezi took out a few crabs and placed them on the electronic scale in the store.
The identical weight of each crab shocked Huang Tengchong once again.
"They indeed are exactly the same, really surprising, each crab weighs the same," Meixin listening and watching by the side, also felt quite astonished.
"Hey, this is nothing, our store has many such things. Look at these cushions, they are also consistently weighted." Mao Dazhu, still not finding the situation lively enough, grabbed several cushions, tossed them onto the scale, each weighing 199 grams.
But, the occasional items in the Agricultural Specialty Store really broadened Huang Tengchong’s horizons. The use of the bought cushions from the Agricultural Specialty Store, which Meixin had also mentioned to Huang Tengchong, with Mao Dazhu making such a distraction, picked up several cushions, pressed them with his hands, tightly firm - those large cushions felt light as air in the hand, and a unique scent of grass wafted from the cushions.
When Xiao Xian wove the cushions, he also planned the design using specific amounts of cattail and Spiritual Energy. Once he perfected it, there was absolutely no deviation.
"It seems the people in this store indeed have something special; they could be hidden extraordinary talents," Since losing Feng Bird, the operation of Huang’s company was greatly affected; he had been wanting to find another person for assistance.
