Chapter 583: Chapter 249: Ten Steps Ahead of Others_1"Being one step ahead makes you a genius; being ten steps ahead makes you a god!" Yan Fei said, laughing haughtily in a typical villainous fashion. "So how about it, wifey, am I impressive or what? Once I succeed in this venture too, we’ll have yet another source of income."
"You haven’t even succeeded yet!" Xu Xiaoyan, who was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, chastised him. "Even if you can cultivate them well, you have to be able to sell them. I’ve never seen mushrooms being sold here, no one even eats them!"
"Selling them here is definitely not feasible, they have to be sold to the big city." Yan Fei nodded, "Don’t worry, as long as we can grow them, we won’t have any trouble selling them! The key is that this gives us another way to deal with the cow dung. We’ll never have to worry about not having a use for it again!"
What Xu Xiaoyan said was indeed the current situation. There were never any mushrooms for sale at the market of Sancha River town. Not even the most common and ordinary ones let alone the Agaricus bisporus that was mentioned in the materials Yan Fei brought back — probably only a handful of people in Sancha River have even heard about it.
However, Yan Fei wasn’t worried about the issue Xu Xiaoyan brought up about sales channels.
Firstly, he trusted Professor He and the rest. Since they provided the information, there must be a market for it — though they haven’t seen it yet.
If there is a market for it, Yan Fei wouldn’t be worried about selling them, at worst he could simply be cheaper, as the cost would be low! At the most, he would hire some workers when he’s too busy, which doesn’t mean much! As long as the cost is low enough, even if he sells them as ordinary vegetables, he wouldn’t be worried about losing money. The worst-case scenario would be to transport them to the provincial city to sell. If he worries about drawing attention to himself, he could break the bulk into smaller parts and gradually ’transport’ them there for sale, or open up markets in the other two provincial capitals nearby — as long as there are places where people buy, Yan Fei won’t be worried.
What most people are most worried about is transportation, but Yan Fei was not worried at all. Within a few hundred miles, with a motorcycle for cover, where couldn’t he deliver to? He also wasn’t worried about losses during transportation.
"Okay, I believe in you; go lie down and rest right now, I’m cooking!" Xu Xiaoyan urged Yan Fei. "You’ve been out the whole night and here you are not even knowing you’re tired. Have you gone crazy? Go lie down and rest, and you can get up to eat when I’m finished cooking."
"I’m not tired, I’m feeling energetic!" Yan Fei said. Looking around he saw a shovel lying in front of the house. "I’m going to do some work first, call me when you’re done cooking!"
Saying this, he picked up the shovel and went to scoop up the cow dung.
The cow dung here was transported over from the cattle farm. As the sheds there were not built yet, a large pile had already accumulated.
Yan Fei returned last night, but it was in the middle of the night and it was near dawn when he took out the motorcycle from the dinosaur world, pretending to have just returned from a tough journey. During the time in between, hiding in a cave, listening to the sounds of waves and the roars of all sorts of beasts, he thoroughly re
Yan Fei quickly comforted, "Eat quickly! I need you to watch over the cattle ranch a lot these days. I’ll help them build the shed as soon as possible, so the sooner it’s finished, the more at ease we can be."
"Hmm!" The girl was only slightly unhappy, knowing that the main task was important, she naturally wouldn’t throw a tantrum.
After eating, he sent the girl to the cattle ranch, then rushed to Ma Yongming’s house.
When Ma Yongming heard that Yan Fei was still planning to build a shed, he asked, "Didn’t you just finish soil-laying? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Yan Fei triumphantly showed off the document in his hand, "This time I’m building a shed not for worms, but for this. I got it from the provincial city, it’s information given to us by the old professor at the Agricultural University. You tell me if I’m awesome!"
"Awesome, truly awesome!" Before Ma Yongming could say a word, his father had already spoken up. "Xiao Fei’s path is getting wider and wider! But what is this for?"
"It’s for growing Agaricus Bisporus using cow dung." Yan Fei casually said, seeing the confused faces of everyone in the room, he further explained. "It’s a type of mushroom, no one grows it here, no one sells it, and I guess no one knows how to eat it. We’ll have to sell it in the big city and earn money from the rich."
As Ma Yongming turned to the blueprint page in the document, he asked, "Does this thing require temperature control? If the temperature is high, it needs ventilation to cool down, doesn’t it?"
"Impressive, now Uncle Ming is an expert! He spotted the key point at the first glance." Yan Fei flattered him. "That’s right, what’s up?"
"Then don’t build it with rammed earth. I think the information given by the professors at the Provincial Agricultural University must be reliable, so let’s just build it properly with bricks. I’ll leave you room for ventilation in the middle. When ventilation is needed, dig a hole, and when it’s not needed, block it. It’s time-saving and convenient." Ma Yongming suggested, studying the diagram of the simple greenhouse in the document.
"Either way works, I think this thing is trustworthy. Even if it doesn’t work out, the greenhouse I built won’t be wasted, and I can grow vegetables and raise earthworms." Yan Fei agreed without hesitation.
"That’s good. The bricks I arranged to be delivered today will arrive. Since you’re in a rush, let’s not build the house first, let’s directly build this thing! Build this first and then slowly build the house. Don’t worry about the money. We can owe the money for the bricks until the end of the year when we have money to pay them. You don’t need to pay me for my work now either, whenever you have money to pay is fine."
"Okay! Anyways, money is only a problem these days. As soon as we finish raising this batch of fattened cows, we’ll never be short of money again." Yan Fei had no objections, since when other people have spoken to this extent, it would be ungrateful to have any more opinions. "But is the brick factory okay with this?"
"It’s very okay. Have you forgotten? The brick factory owner’s precious son and Heizi are close friends! Even if Heizi goes to say hello, we can owe them for a couple of years." Ma Yongming said with a laugh.
Yan Fei thought about it and laughed too. That’s true - why did Heizi come to the cattle ranch? It was because of the brick factory owner’s precious son. The bond between them, having been publicly humiliated together, was even stronger than going through the battlefield together!
Everyone knew this, even the old lady who was holding her grandson in her arms couldn’t stop laughing.
"Let’s go, let’s go over there now. The bricks will probably be delivered soon. We’ll wait there now and tell the workers to go directly to the greenhouse." Ma Yongming got up to take action as he finished speaking.
They got to work as soon as they decided. The efficiency was impressively high.
After the bricks were delivered, Ma Yongming and Yan Fei both agreed on how to build it - Yan Fei has always been someone who doesn’t care about picking auspicious days for starting a construction project, so they started right away.
