Chapter 43 It takes no effort at all
"For you guys."
Chen Dao took the red panda off his shoulder and handed it to Chen Fei.
The red panda wasn't shy at all. It climbed onto Chen Fei's shoulder as soon as she reached out her hand, and squinted its eyes as if it were sleeping.
"so cute!"
Chen Tiedan reached out and gently stroked the red panda's fur. Seeing that the red panda didn't react, he stroked it even more happily.
The two children petted the panda as they returned to their seats.
At this moment, the food was served.
Tonight's meal was quite substantial. In addition to steamed buns, Li Ping and He Cuilian also cooked an egg drop soup. Everyone ate the sorghum steamed buns with the egg drop soup and enjoyed the meal.
After dinner, Chen Dao took the little panda from Chen Fei, who was reluctant to part with it, and returned to her bedroom.
Lying in bed, Chen Dao looked at the little panda curled up in his arms, fast asleep, and pondered.
"Red pandas should eat bamboo, and also some berries and the like..."
Fruit and dried rice are definitely not available for the red pandas for the time being, but Chenjia Village, which is adjacent to Cangmang Mountain, has no shortage of bamboo leaves, so there is no worry about feeding the red pandas.
"Next time I go to the city, I can ask about Blood Jade Bamboo Leaves."
With this thought in mind, Chen Dao quickly drifted off to sleep.
…………
…………
Five days passed quietly, and at Chen Dao's construction site, Chen Cheng and his four companions, along with Chen Da, were still working diligently on the main structure of the house.
Chen Dao stood in the courtyard of the Chen family, his eyes filled with joy.
At this point, the number of yellow-feathered chickens in the cage had reached 24!
This was a number that greatly surprised Chen Dao!
Because among these 24 yellow-feathered chickens, 7 were adults!
After Chen Dao sold two yellow-feathered chickens, there were only four adult yellow-feathered chickens left. The reason there were seven at this time was because the three chicks that were initially hatched had grown up!
"Eight days, it only took eight days to reach adulthood, that's such a growth rate..."
Chen Dao was shocked. In his previous life, the fast-growing white-feathered chickens used by fast food restaurants like KFC took at least 20 days to reach market weight, while the yellow-feathered chickens he bred only took 8 days...
If this were in China in my previous life, it would probably be regarded by the public as an unhealthy, even toxic, or chicken that had been injected with growth hormones!
But Chen Dao knew very well that he could never use high-tech things like growth hormones on the yellow-feathered chickens, let alone feed them chemical feed. Instead, he raised them with pure natural grains!
The reason why they can reach adulthood in eight days is simply because the Yellow Feather Chicken is a unique breed, and it is definitely not because they are fed growth hormones or hormone-containing feed!
"At this rate of reproduction and growth, I'm afraid we won't have enough cages in less than a month!"
Chen Dao was extremely eager for his house to be completed as soon as possible; otherwise, he would really have nowhere to raise chickens.
In addition, with the increase in the number of chickens, the consumption of grain has also increased, and the sorghum, rice bran, and other grains purchased last time are almost gone.
"We need to start breeding blood-feathered chickens."
Chen Dao pondered to himself.
He knew very well that although white-feathered and yellow-feathered chickens were more expensive, they were only enough to feed his family. To get rich, he had to breed the chickens that martial artists needed, namely... Bloodfeathered Chickens!
Martial artists in this world hold a transcendent status and are among the wealthiest people. Only items sold to martial artists can fetch high prices and generate sufficient profits!
Thinking of this, Chen Dao immediately returned to the house, took out three blood-clotting fruits, and gave them to the three newly grown yellow-feathered chickens to peck at.
"Giggle!"
Three newly grown yellow-feathered chickens quickly pecked at the blood-clotting fruit that Chen Dao had placed on the ground.
At the same time, Xiao Hei also ran over, clucking, begging for food from Chen Dao.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yuan, who had been perched on Chen Dao's shoulder, began to whimper, clearly hungry as well.
"They're all foodies!"
Chen Dao returned to the house in distress, took out sorghum and rice husks to feed Xiao Hei, and then took the little panda out to his own construction site.
"Uncle Chen."
Chen Dao stopped Chen Da, who was carrying timber, and said, "Could you please take me to find some bamboo?"
Chen Da glanced at the little panda on Chen Dao's shoulder and nodded knowingly: "Come with me!"
Before long, Chen Dao and Chen Da arrived at a bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain.
Xiao Yuan was exceptionally excited upon arriving at the bamboo forest. She jumped off Chen Dao with a soft whimper and began munching on the tender bamboo shoots.
"Brother Dao, you can stay here, don't go inside."
Chen Da pointed mysteriously in the direction of the mountain. This bamboo forest was on the edge of the Cangmang Mountain, with few wild animals, making it a relatively safe place. If you went any deeper, it would be the area where Chen Da used to hunt, where various wild animals would occasionally appear, making it very dangerous.
“I know, Uncle.”
"Then I'll go back to work now!"
After Chen Da left, Chen Dao sat under a bamboo tree, waiting for Xiao Yuan to eat while gazing into the depths of the vast mountains.
The Cangmang Mountains are mysterious and dangerous. Even the villagers of Chenjia Village, who live at the foot of the mountains, know very little about them. Not to mention the villagers of Chenjia Village, even Chen Da, a hunter, has very limited knowledge of the Cangmang Mountains.
When hunting in the mountains, Chen Da only dared to hunt on the outskirts of the Cangmang Mountains and never dared to go deep into them. According to Chen Da, he once saw a group of martial artists enter the depths of the Cangmang Mountains from the direction of Chenjia Village and never come out again.
Even martial artists who entered could not survive, which shows just how dangerous the depths of the Cangmang Mountains are.
"Uh-huh-huh."
Just then, Xiao Yuan let out a joyful cry. Chen Dao looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xiao Yuan standing up, with a hint of eagerness on her round little face.
In front of Xiaoyuan was a bamboo that was quite different from others. The bamboo leaves were not the usual emerald green leaves, but blood red. The bamboo leaves shimmered with a jade-like luster under the sunlight.
"嘤嘤嘤!"
Because the bamboo leaves were too tall for her to reach, Xiao Yuan quickly ran to Chen Dao's side, biting the corner of Chen Dao's clothes, as if asking Chen Dao for help.
"Could this be the Blood Jade Bamboo Leaf?"
Chen Dao walked to the bamboo tree and looked up.
These bamboo leaves are red and shimmer with a jade-like luster, which is very likely one of the materials needed for the little panda to advance: Blood Jade Bamboo Leaves!
"This really came to us without any effort at all!"
Chen Dao reached out and shook the bamboo pole violently. Before long, red bamboo leaves fell from the air. Xiao Yuan happily picked up a bamboo leaf and put it in her mouth to chew.
"Judging from Xiaoyuan's reaction, this thing is very likely a Blood Jade Bamboo Leaf!"
Chen Dao judged that, based on past experience, advanced materials are often very attractive to animals that need to advance.
When Chen Dao fed the Yellow Feather Chicken with the Blood Clotting Fruit, Xiao Yuan became unusually restless, as if she really wanted to eat the Blood Clotting Fruit.
The fact that Xiao Yuan likes these red bamboo leaves so much suggests that they are very likely one of the Blood Jade Bamboo Leaves needed for advancement!
"In that case, Xiaoyuan won't need to go to the county town to find her advancement materials!"
Thinking of this, Chen Dao shook the bamboo pole more vigorously, and red bamboo leaves fell with the wind. Chen Dao quickly collected all the bamboo leaves, and then quickly took Xiao Yuan back to the Chen family home, took out a blood-clotting fruit and handed it to Xiao Yuan.
"嘤嘤嘤!"
Xiao Yuan excitedly held a blood-clotting fruit in both hands, taking small bites of the flesh, a human-like joy appearing on her face.
