Chapter 100

Thank you, Emperor Xuanbing and friends for your generous donations. Much appreciated, please follow and recommend!

Xiaoguifang quietly asked Wang Xiaoqiang in his office one day. Wang Xiaoqiang's heart sank, and he evaded, saying, "Uh, this is a new and advanced hatching technique I learned from outside. It's super fast, but you'd better not spread it around. It's a kind of trade secret, after all. I spent a lot of time and money learning this technique."

Xiaoguifang was half-convinced, but she still nodded obediently... "Then teach me this technique. I'll take care of the hatching room from now on, so you don't have to worry about it..."

Xiaoguifang saw that Wang Xiaoqiang, who ran the factory, not only had to handle sales and deliveries but also had to hatch chicks, and she felt he was really overworked. She wanted to share some of his burden.

At that moment, there were only the two of them in the office. Wang Xiaoqiang put his arm around Xiaoguifang's waist and whispered in her ear, "We'll talk about it when you become the boss's wife!"

Xiaoguifang blushed but did not resist, allowing Wang Xiaoqiang to hold her waist, feeling a sweet warmth in her heart. This was exactly what she had been thinking—marrying Wang Xiaoqiang, starting a business with him, and having children for him. This was the life she had been longing for day and night!

Wang Xiaoqiang, however, was thinking that once the chicken farm grew and the number of wild pheasants reached a certain level, the hatching process would slow down. At that point, he could use normal methods and incubators, and he wouldn't need to do it himself anymore.

"Xiaoqiang, I have something to discuss with you..." Xiaoguifang lowered her head and said shyly.

"Go ahead and say it."

"It's just that..." Xiaoguifang stammered, finding it hard to speak.

"What is it..." Wang Xiaoqiang said gently, "Is it because there are too few people at the chicken farm and it's getting too busy?"

"It's not that..." Xiaoguifang bit her lip, "I want to change my room..."

"Change your room..." Wang Xiaoqiang suddenly felt excited. Could she be thinking of living with him?

"Yes, I want to move to a different room. My current room is too close to the Zhao Dabao couple's..."

"Uh..." Wang Xiaoqiang felt a bit disappointed.

"They, they are too noisy at night!"

"You mean the Zhao Dabao couple... That's strange, Zhao Dabao is mute, and they hardly communicate verbally. How could they disturb you..." Wang Xiaoqiang was confused.

"Oh, you..." Xiaoguifang suddenly pushed Wang Xiaoqiang, "They don't talk, but they use other ways to communicate... Anyway, they keep me up until late at night."

"Uh..." Seeing Xiaoguifang's shy expression, Wang Xiaoqiang understood. Although Zhao Dabao and his wife hardly communicated during the day, they were in their prime, and Zhao Dabao's wife, Li Jinye, was not even fifty. As the saying goes, "Thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger, and fifty can still stir up the earth." Their nightly activities, if a bit vigorous, would inevitably disturb Xiaoguifang, who lived next door, separated only by a wall. The mountain was quiet at night.

"Then just change rooms. There are two other rooms available, you can choose any one."

"Then, can I live next to you?" Xiaoguifang raised her face and bit her red lip.

"Sure, you're welcome to live in my room too, hehe..." Wang Xiaoqiang laughed and pinched Xiaoguifang's waist, which was firm and elastic.

"Go, don't get too excited!" Xiaoguifang broke free from Wang Xiaoqiang's hand and gave him a playful glance. Xiaoguifang was a pure and traditional girl, guarding her chastity.

"Right, Xiaofang, are the three of you managing the work? Do we need more people..." Wang Xiaoqiang returned to a serious tone.

"It's a bit tough. Zhao Dabao and his wife work hard, but with more chicks, it's getting harder to take care of them. Sometimes they can't keep up..." Xiaoguifang suggested, "After I finish my work, I can help them..."

"That won't do, that job is too dirty," Wang Xiaoqiang said firmly, "We need more people. Get your mother and Li Xianghong to come. You inform your mother, and I'll inform Li Xianghong."

Xiaoguifang nodded in agreement.

That evening, Wang Xiaoqiang went to Li Xianghong's house and told her about the job. Li Xianghong was overjoyed at the prospect of working at Wang Xiaoqiang's factory. She couldn't help but hug and kiss Wang Xiaoqiang. Wang Xiaoqiang couldn't resist, his hair standing on end. However, Li Xianghong didn't let go, pressing her ample chest against his, making him feel dry-mouthed.

"Ah..." Although Wang Xiaoqiang pushed her away, Li Xianghong still laughed happily after kissing him.

"Cough, cough... Let's talk business," Wang Xiaoqiang composed himself, "If you go to work on the mountain, you won't be able to take care of Xiao Ying. How do you plan to handle this?"

"I'll get my mother to take care of Xiao Ying," Li Xianghong said without hesitation, clearly having thought it through.

"Alright, once you're settled, come to the factory. You'll be given a room, and you can bring your cooking and sleeping essentials."

"I understand. Thank you so much."

"Alright, I'll be going then."

"Xiaoqiang," Li Xianghong suddenly grabbed Wang Xiaoqiang's arm, her eyes pleading, "Stay tonight?"

Li Xianghong was in her early thirties, over a decade older than Wang Xiaoqiang, but her allure was the strongest. However, Wang Xiaoqiang couldn't give in at this moment, or he would find it hard to break free from her embrace. He quickly pulled his hand away... "Aunt, don't, Xiao Ying is still young and needs your care at night."

Although he refused, Wang Xiaoqiang did so in a gentle manner. Li Xianghong wasn't a promiscuous woman; otherwise, she would have remarried long ago. Xiao Ying was still young, and she didn't want to find a stepfather for her and make her suffer.

Hearing this, Li Xianghong stopped pestering Wang Xiaoqiang, nodding and saying affectionately, "Xiaoqiang, remember, I like you! I'm always ready for you!"

Wang Xiaoqiang's heart felt a jolt, and he hurriedly left Li Xianghong's house.

Xiaoguifang's mother and Li Xianghong came to the factory one after another. With the workforce now at five, Wang Xiaoqiang took the opportunity to gather everyone in the office for a meeting. He first discussed the wages for Li Xianghong and Xiaoguifang's mother, which were the same as those for Zhao Dabao's wife, Li Jinye, and Xiaoguifang—80 yuan per day. For a rural woman, 80 yuan a day was a decent wage. Although they could earn the same amount working outside, most preferred to stay in their hometown and could take leave during the farming season to harvest crops.

Wang Xiaoqiang then emphasized the importance of confidentiality at the chicken farm. He sternly warned the five workers that they must not disclose any information about the farm, just like workers in a munitions factory. He listed several rules and the penalties for breaking them, with the most severe penalty for breaching confidentiality—any employee who leaked information about the farm would have their monthly salary deducted.

A monthly salary of two to three thousand yuan was a significant amount, and no one would dare to gossip!

The severity of the penalties made the five workers gasp in surprise and heightened their alertness. They resolved to keep their mouths shut and not reveal any information about the farm. At the end of the meeting, Wang Xiaoqiang instructed Xiaoguifang to print out the rules and penalties and post them in each area of the farm.
