In the morning, Jifeng woke up and saw Xu Xian still sound asleep. He smiled and gently kissed her delicate little face, pulled the blanket over her, got up, washed up, and then went into the space.
Unlike other pregnant women, Xu Xian became extremely sleepy after getting pregnant, sleeping for fifteen to sixteen hours a day. She usually didn't eat breakfast until noon, which was very similar to her mother-in-law. Before they returned to Jeju Island, they had already helped her father-in-law's family move into the new house in Shouer. Since the house was usually empty, it was perfect for her mother-in-law to live in and take care of the house, which was a win-win situation.
Xu Xian, who had received a traditional South Korean education, firmly believed in the concept of "obeying the husband after marriage." According to South Korean tradition, if she wanted to continue working after marriage, it would be a great loss of face for Jifeng. Therefore, before the wedding, she actively fought for her rights. Fortunately, Jifeng had grown up in China, where there was no such rule, so he didn't take it too seriously as long as she was happy.
When Jifeng married Xu Xian, he presented her with a gift of tens of millions of dollars. Her father, Xu Qiang, returned the money, adding a few million won, but it was for his daughter. They originally planned to buy a large dowry, but since Jifeng's house had everything, and the house in Jeju Island was not yet built, they could only give her cash.
Jifeng didn't care about this either. He had no parents or relatives, and as a good man of the new era, although he was a bit lazy, he was willing to support his in-laws. Perhaps aware of this, Xu Qiang and his wife were extremely satisfied and happy with Jifeng.
In the Divine Dragon Space, Jifeng hadn't entered for several days due to the wedding preparations. When he finally did, he was surprised to find significant changes.
The hundred chicks had all grown into adult chickens, their plump bodies making Jifeng stare in amazement. Were these still domestic chickens? They looked more like turkeys.
After searching, he found countless eggs in the grass, some even piled up like small mountains. Since nothing came to eat the eggs, and the cow and the elephant weren't interested in them, the eggs had not decreased at all since they were laid.
Picking up an egg, Jifeng was again amused and puzzled. Did everything in the space mutate? The size of the eggs was comparable to duck eggs.
Seeing two hens sitting motionless, Jifeng curiously approached and observed for a moment. He realized they were brooding. He was startled. How could they start breeding so soon?
Standing up, he looked at the dozens of nests of eggs in the grass. He felt both happy and helpless. Since there were so many eggs, he decided to collect them quickly to prevent the chickens from hatching them all, which would soon cover the grass.
He then went to the cows and found that the calves had all grown into large cows. The udders of the dairy cows were so full of milk that they almost touched the ground. Jifeng was again troubled. He couldn't spend all day milking them.
The number of cows had also increased dramatically. There were now over 160 dairy cows and 171 beef cows, each having increased by dozens in a short time.
This growth rate pleased Jifeng. In another one or two months, the number would likely reach three hundred, at which point he could move a batch to the outside pasture to create a new breed for the world to enjoy. The results of the milk analysis that Jifeng had asked Lin Hui to conduct before the New Year were already out. The milk was so nutritious that the experts were ecstatic, calling it the best in the world, even more nutritious than the best-known milk. Several university experts had already requested to meet Jifeng several times, but he was too lazy to deal with them for now, waiting until the cows were outside.
He then went to the lake and found it almost filled with the grown Balong and Kedaniel fish. Despite the lake being over a hundred acres, the fish reproduced so quickly that the last batch of less than two hundred fish had produced hundreds of thousands of eggs, almost all of which had hatched. The lake was now filled with golden and silver fish, densely packed.
Jifeng sighed and patted his forehead. He wouldn't be able to practice today; he had work to do.
Back at the hotel, he glanced at Xu Xian, who was still sleeping, and left the room. He asked Lin Hui to prepare some egg boxes, which were readily available in the hotel. He loaded over a dozen onto a truck and drove to the dock.
Taking a speedboat to his cargo ship, Jifeng entered the space again. With a wave of his hand, the egg boxes floated around him. He ran to the grass, found a nest of eggs, and waved his hand, and the eggs fell into the boxes as if controlled.
In just a few minutes, he filled over a dozen boxes with eggs. This ability to control objects was very practical. If he had to pick them up one by one, it would have taken at least half a day.
He then went to the lake, and with a flick of his fingers, tens of thousands of larger fish were lifted into the air. This was a small number compared to the nearly one million fish, but it was still several dozen tons. The Balong fish, each over two meters long and weighing over a hundred pounds, would fill the ship with just a few thousand. Even the smaller Kedaniel fish, weighing ten to twenty pounds, were a concern for the ship's capacity.
After preparing the eggs and fish, Jifeng sailed the cargo ship out to sea and then directly to the port. The ship was now filled with golden and silver fish, shining in the sunlight, causing everyone at the port to be amazed.
Seeing a cargo ship full of large fish arrive, many people were excited, while others were stunned. If it were a fishing boat, it would be normal, but Jifeng's was a ten-thousand-ton bulk carrier, which was unusual. When did bulk carriers start fishing, and with such a large catch? The fishing boat captains were speechless, and the unfamiliar fish on the ship left everyone speechless.
"Boss, how much are the fish?"
"Boss, how many fish do you have? We'll take them all for Xingye Fish Farm."
As soon as Jifeng appeared, dozens of people shouted up to him on the deck.
Jifeng smiled and waved, shouting, "Sorry, everyone, these fish are already reserved." He couldn't just let them go without an appraisal.
He called Lin Hui, asking her to notify Zheng Junxiu to bring a truck to load the fish and to send some hotel staff to move the eggs.
After finishing a cigarette on the deck, he saw a hotel van arrive. He waved to the people who got out and pressed a button on a remote control, and a gangway extended to the dock, surprising the disappointed crowd. They had never seen a cargo ship with an automatic gangway. Jifeng had only recently discovered this feature and was using it for the first time.
"Boss, you always surprise us. Are these the fish you just caught?" The general manager of the Shinra Hotel, Song Mingjun, was amazed, looking at the Balong and Kedaniel fish filling the ship and the deck, his tongue almost tied.
The ship must have at least a few thousand tons of fish. He wondered how Jifeng managed to catch so many in just a couple of hours, given that the ship had been parked nearby.
Jifeng stood up and pointed to the neatly arranged egg boxes, "You're here too. Have your people move the eggs. You can take some fish too, but we'll set the price later. Have the relevant people test them first."
Song Mingjun's eyes lit up, and he was so happy he wanted to hug Jifeng. "Sure, boss. Boys, get to work." He waved, and several young, strong hotel staff started moving the egg boxes.
"Boss, will these fish be exclusively supplied to our hotel?" The last time Jifeng brought out a fish, it was too large for him and Xu Xian to finish, so Lin Hui had prepared the rest. The hotel chefs, seeing a fish over a hundred pounds for the first time, steamed it and tasted it, almost biting their tongues off. Song Mingjun, who happened to be visiting Lin Hui, was delighted, and they all ate until they were almost unable to walk.
Jifeng laughed and kicked him, "You glutton, still not satisfied? When you get back, cook it yourself. One hotel can't eat so much. We'll distribute it to all the five-star hotels. This is a specialty of Jeju Island, and I plan to farm these fish in Jeju Lake."
Zheng Junxiu was equally amazed. It took over two days to load the fish onto the trucks, and he was so busy that he barely had time to rest. The cold storage was filled, and he had to distribute a certain amount to each hotel for them to store.
The price was determined by the evening after the tests. The fine texture and rich nutrition of the fish stunned the university professors, who refused to let Zheng Junxiu leave.
