Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 501 Relatives and Friends
Taoyuan Village receives many tourists from all over the country and even from abroad every day.

Any slight disturbance would naturally cause a great uproar throughout the city.

However, it's nothing more than the rabbits that were raised escaped; to say they're all over the village would be a bit of an exaggeration.

The reason it's so popular is actually related to the name "Taoyuan Village".

If other farmers' rabbits had escaped, it's hard to say whether it would have made the news, let alone generated such a high level of public interest.

Of course, it is also largely due to the fact that the rabbits from Taoyuan Village taste good and are expensive.

If a rabbit runs away, and you catch it, you keep it. But if a chicken, duck, or even a cow or sheep runs away, does that mean it belongs to you too?
Of course, that's obviously overthinking it.

Those that can't escape, and even if they do, they obviously won't be as hard to catch as rabbits.

The reason he was caught and taken back this time was because a tourist asked Xu Yue about it.

"The culprit has gone into his stomach."

Yan Tiandu called to inquire.

After all, a rabbit only bites when cornered, but what about other things?

That's hard to say.

Before contacting Xu Yue, he had already called Jing Guohua, asking the Special Administration Bureau to keep an eye on Miao Shiwen's scorpion and centipede farming.

If those things were to escape, that would be a huge mess.

Of course, he called Xu Yue mainly because Xu Yue had been researching the breeding of exotic beasts recently.

Yan Tian naturally supports this kind of breeding.

His appetite has decreased, and he is getting less and less energy from food.

why?
He still had some suspicions.

When you reach a higher level of spiritual attainment, the food becomes insufficient.

He also understood why Xu Yue suddenly wanted to raise exotic beasts.

His level of understanding is far superior to mine.

"Pity."

Yan Tian couldn't help but say something, which made Xu Yue smile.

"I'll save it for you next time."

Xu Yue said with a smile that Yan Tian's desire for food was obviously stronger than Zhang Zhixuan's.

Not only because he was a martial arts practitioner, but also because of his identity.

Zhang Zhixuan was, after all, a member of the Taoist sect. Although he belonged to the Zhengyi sect, his desire for meat and the like was definitely lower than that of ordinary people.

“Yande has broken through to the fifth realm,” Yan Tian continued. “I estimate that many people in the country who were previously stuck at the fourth realm will break through one after another.”

"What about abroad?"

Xu Yue asked, but he didn't seem to have any particular feeling about the breakthroughs that had occurred in China.

This is actually a good thing for China.

As for when Yan De broke through to the fifth realm, Xu Yue was not surprised at all.

He often represented Buddhism.

He was already just one step away from breaking through, and after Zhang Zhixuan's breakthrough, the pressure from the entire Buddhist sect would turn into motivation, prompting Yan De to break through as well.

Those with money should contribute money, and those with strength should contribute strength. If the resources of the entire Buddhist community are gathered and they still cannot achieve a breakthrough, then he cannot be the number one person in Buddhism.

"Perhaps," Yan Tian said. "Your third uncle and your grandfather should be arriving soon, right?"

"They're not in a hurry."

Xu Yue replied with a smile.

Not urgent?
There's really no need to rush.

The two Fifth Realm experts in Peach Blossom Village suppressed the entire cultivation world, leaving no one daring to say anything.

There's no need to rush to break through; laying a solid foundation will make it easier to break through to higher realms later.

If they're not in a hurry, does that mean they could break through if they were?
If he were to break through, then Peach Blossom Village would have three people at the fifth level, plus Xu Yue, who has surpassed the fifth level.

In addition, many others at the fourth level will likely break through to the fifth level soon.

Zhang Ruoxi, Liu Chengji, Guo Tianyou, Li Zhuting
Forget it, there's nothing to think about.

Peach Blossom Village has no shortage of resources; as long as one has talent, masters will naturally emerge one after another.

After exchanging a few words, Yan Tian hung up the phone.

He is very busy.

Comparatively speaking, Xu Yue's situation is somewhat easier, but compared to before, he is still much busier.

Busy researching seeds, busy researching feed.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner.

"This Mid-Autumn Festival, I've invited your second aunt and uncle to come over together."

Li Xiurong spoke first.

As for my third uncle's family, they're right next door, so there's no need to mention them.

"That's great news," Xu Yue said with a smile. "I haven't seen them in ages."

Xu Yue hadn't seen his aunt's family and his uncle's family for a long time.

He's busy, and so are everyone else.

My aunt and her husband are still running their small business, trying to keep the storefront afloat.

My cousin Xiong Yong is busy with the Taoyuan Hotel in the county.

Once the hotel was on track and making money, they also made some other investments.

There are gains and losses.

Because of the connections you have, you naturally earn more and lose less, and your net worth keeps increasing.

After giving birth, Xiong Yan stayed at home to take care of her child. She had brought her child to Taoyuan Village before, but unfortunately Xu Yue was abroad at the time.

She's doing quite well these days, the only thing she's not entirely satisfied with is that Lu Zhenyu is always very busy.

Lu Zhenyu took over the family business, and now it's growing bigger and bigger.

However, Lu Zhenyu is also a family man.

As for my uncle's family?
My uncle and his wife are planning to retire in the countryside. The house is all built and the land has been cleared.

As a result, my cousin decided to open a shoe factory, and I got busy again.

Business is actually pretty good.

Online sales are particularly high.

Can your parents come?

Li Xiurong then looked at Zhang Ruoxi and asked.

Zhang Ruoxi's parents are undoubtedly busier.

Her mother's beauty salon and beauty products, in particular, have grown bigger and bigger.

Liu Feifei is the spokesperson for their face masks.

Now they sell well overseas.

And it's the most expensive face mask.

Of course, its effects are also quite amazing.

In addition, many other beauty products are under development and have already been launched, all of which are extremely popular.

As for those beauty devices, female celebrities and wealthy heiresses are frequent customers.

It's estimated that before long, Yang Qingyi's businesses will be more valuable than Zhang's.

“They should come,” Zhang Ruoxi said. “Grandpa and Grandpa on both sides are in Taoyuan Village.”

She gave a wry smile.

Her father wanted to quit but didn't get the chance.

Her mother initially just played around with it, sharing her beauty tips.

Alone Better Together.

Who would have thought that once they started, things would get out of control?

It wasn't that she wanted to grow her business this big; it's just that once she started, she couldn't stop.

She wanted to stop, but too many people were pushing her forward.

Sometimes you just have to accept it.

"Haven't found a suitable manager yet?" Xu Yue said. "If all else fails, we can try a headhunting firm."

"I'll give them a call later and ask if they come. If they do, I'll have a proper talk with them."

Zhang Ruoxi spoke up, saying that she naturally didn't want her parents to be so busy.

The world is changing, but whether it will become a world dominated by cultivators is still unlikely at present. As for the future, who can say for sure?

However, she was not worried. With them around, even if her parents and others did not cultivate or had low cultivation levels, they would not be bullied.

However, upon receiving Li Xiurong's call, Xu Yue's second aunt and uncle's family all said they would come.

Zhang Ruoxi also called her parents.

Xu Yue was right beside him and naturally understood everything. "Don't you think what your parents are saying sounds familiar?"

After Zhang Ruoxi hung up the phone, Xu Yue said with a smile.

Zhang Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, then realized what she meant and shook her head with a wry smile.

Those words have been said many times.

The results of it?
as always.

"Forget it," Zhang Ruoxi said. "We don't need to make them live the life we ​​envision."

“Your parents don’t want to be that busy,” Xu Yue said. “They want it but can’t have it.”

Parents hope their children will grow up according to their own ideas.

this is nothing.

After all, many of a child's ideas are not mature.

Parents, having been through it all, consider things much more comprehensively.

But if children want their parents to live according to their own ideas, then there's no need for that.

That might not be filial piety.

The key point is that Zhang Ruoxi's parents didn't want to be busy.

That's not the life they want.

I've been thinking about letting go for years, but things just keep piling up.

“They have already found a manager and are still evaluating them,” Zhang Ruoxi said. “My dad is gradually handing over the family companies to my brother, and my mom’s beauty salons and cosmetics companies are now mostly handed over to Xue Yan (previously it was Ning Yun’s wife Qin Qing, which has been corrected. Please forgive any omissions).

Xu Yue nodded, showing little interest in the matter.

Neither he nor Zhang Ruoxi had any interest in the Zhang family's companies.

Let alone the fact that Xu Yue is not short of money now, even when his career was just starting out, he never thought of it.

Zhang Ruoxi hadn't thought of that either.

The three siblings seemed unwilling to take over, which was clearly different from the behavior of wealthy families who were in charge of their inheritance.

I don't know whether this is a success or a failure of education.

Time flies, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner.

Zhang Zelin and Yang Qingyi arrived ahead of time with Zhang Ruohai and Xue Yan.

They stayed in their villa.

Although no one lives there for a long time, it is cleaned regularly, so it is naturally safe to move in.

"Sit down for a while!"

Xu Yue said to Feng Jie, who was about to leave after putting down the gifts.

"No need to sit, come again next time," Feng Jie said with a smile. "I have things to do back home."

"Then wait a moment," Xu Yue said. "Take two bottles of wine back for your uncle and aunt."

As he spoke, Xu Yue went back into the house and got two bottles of wine for Feng Jie.

"I heard Yu Yu resigned from the bank?"

Xu Yue didn't keep Feng Jie; the guy was currently extremely busy.

His business grew bigger and bigger, and naturally he became busier.

“Yes!” Feng Jie said, “The company’s finances need someone to keep an eye on them.”

As the business grows, the finances naturally need to be managed by a trustworthy and knowledgeable person.

Yu Yu previously worked at a bank, which was a relevant part of her major.

"You need to balance work and rest!" Xu Yue said. "How much fatter have you gained since then? How much worse is your health?"

"During the rising phase of my career, social engagements are inevitable," Feng Jie said. "Opportunities are raining down on me, and I can't avoid them."

Feng Jie's business grew bigger and bigger, which was naturally due to his connections with Xu Yue and others.

This was indeed an opportunity for him.

The company has an opportunity for development right in front of us, and it would be inappropriate to give it up.

"Here, take this." Xu Yue said, "Take one a day, and whether you're running or doing push-ups or something, you have to exercise."

"what?"

Feng Jie curiously took the jade bottle and even opened it to smell it; it had a strong medicinal fragrance.

"Body Tempering Pill," Xu Yue said. "Come find me after you've finished it. You don't want to be rich but have a ruined body, do you? Then what's the point of making money?"

"Then I won't be polite."

Feng Jie smiled, stuffed the jade bottle into his pocket, and then drove off in a hurry.

During holidays and festivals, Feng Jie would come to give gifts.

We still keep in touch, but not as frequently as before.

It's nothing more than being busy.

"Where are your brother and the others?" Xu Yue asked casually, "Did they go up the mountain?"

“Didn’t they never see that valley before?” Zhang Ruoxi said. “They went up there early this morning and probably won’t be back until tonight.”

It's normal to spend a whole day exploring a mountain scenic area. Since they're not in a rush, they don't need to rush through it.

Hotels have been built all over the mountain now.

Moreover, the Taoist temple has also opened its canteen.

Although it's all vegetarian, it's very popular with tourists.

"Did your parents go to your grandparents' place?" Xu Yue continued. "Call and ask them where they're having dinner today. If they're planning to come over, let Mom know in advance."

“They said we don’t need to worry about it, they’re probably eating over there,” Zhang Ruoxi said. “My mom originally wanted to take the two kids with her, but I was afraid she wouldn’t be able to keep an eye on them, so I didn’t agree.”

The two children are too naughty and have very little contact with Yang Qingyi, so there's a high chance they won't be able to be kept in check.

The next day was the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Zhang Ruoxi's grandmother and maternal grandmother arrived early.

Help with cooking.

Wang Yun's mother arrived earlier, since she lived closer to the house.

Not long after, Gu Yong arrived by car with his parents, wife, and children.

Is Xiong Yan coming?

Xu Yue couldn't help but ask.

"They should be on their way, with Zhenyu," Xu Jianglin said with a smile. "Where's your grandfather? Is he still at school?"

“He’ll probably arrive close to lunchtime,” Xu Yue said. “Don’t worry about him; he’s living a very comfortable life now.”

Xu Jianglin naturally knew how the old man was doing.

There's no need to worry about her health; let alone them, even her son Xiong Yong is probably not as good as her.

The key is finding something you love to do.

Not long after, Zhang Zelin and his family arrived, as did Wang Yun and others.

The adults chatted together, and the young people chatted together too.

"I don't even have a seat left!"

Xiong Yan also arrived, only to find Zhang Ruoxi, Wang Yun, Xue Yan, and Xie Qingqing playing mahjong.

She was probably the one who played mahjong the most among these people, and her addiction was probably the greatest.

"Who told you to come so late?" Xu Yue said with a smile. "When my cousin-in-law and the others arrive later, you can make another table."

In Shuzhou, mahjong can be played with four pieces or three pieces.

It's even more common when there are three.

Xu Yue had barely finished speaking when another car arrived.

If it's not my uncle's family, then who is it?

The villa became lively.

Xu Yue was also dragged into playing cards by Xiong Yong.

The two of them, along with Li Weihai, Lu Zhenyu, and Zhang Ruohai, started playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game).

Five people playing Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game) is quite popular in Shuzhou.

"No cheating allowed!"

Zhang Ruohai looked at Xu Yue and offered a reminder.

If my brother-in-law wanted to cheat, they wouldn't be able to hide what cards they had, so what's the point of playing?

The key is that he knows what cards he wants and what cards he might have. Even if he changes his cards, they won't be able to tell.

"Why would I need to cheat when playing cards with you guys?" Xu Yue said, half-laughing and half-crying. "I can beat you guys just by luck."

As a result, he lost the most miserably.

Although that amount of money is nothing, it's really embarrassing.
