312 It's Not Feasible to Rear Pigs

Wan Dapeng felt that He Xing's words made sense, so he did not insist. Alright, I won't be accompanying you tomorrow. You two must be careful.

After the three of them cleaned up the dishes, they drove back to Sunshine Courtyard. Wan Dapeng was in a hurry to go back and discuss with Yu Xinya and the people in the courtyard about going out to pick up scraps. After getting out of the car, he left in a hurry.

Du Yue and He Xing watched Wan Dapeng's figure disappear into the thick fog before they returned to their house. Their living room had been empty before, but now there was a set of tables and chairs, which were the same as the ones in the shop. They were bought together. With this set of tables and chairs, they did not need to take out the tables and chairs from the interspace every time they ate. It was much easier.

He Xing sat down after washing his hands and suggested to Du Yue excitedly, I want to eat sweet and sour ribs today! Will that work?

Du Yue was not surprised to hear that. He Xing loved meat to begin with, and now that a customer had mentioned it, he must be craving it again. In fact, even Du Yue herself was a little tempted, let alone He Xing.

Du Yue took out a plate of sweet and sour ribs from her interspace. The ribs were still steaming. The ribs were dark red with a little oil. As soon as they were taken out of the space, the delicious aroma filled the noses of the two people. Du Yue quickly took out the exhaust fan and turned it on, afraid that the alluring smell would drift out through the gap in the door and attract the attention of others.

With the sweet and sour pork ribs as the main dish, Du Yue also served up mapo tofu, garlic lettuce, rice, and tomato egg soup. Food filled the entire table. Looking at the colorful and fragrant dishes on the table, Du Yue picked up her chopsticks. Don't just sit there. Hurry up and eat! It won't taste good when it's cold!

It was not a big problem for the other dishes if they turned cold, but if the sweet and sour ribs turned cold, the taste would be greatly affected.

Seeing He Xing start eating, Du Yue also picked up a piece of rib and took a bite. The ribs were stewed until they were very soft, and the taste of the sweet and sour sauce mixed with the natural sweetness of the meat was just right. One bite could make one so happy that one would want to smack one's lips. Indeed, pork was the most delicious! The pork had the perfect ratio of fat and lean meat. No matter how it was cooked, it would taste good. Other meat could not compare.

When having it with rice, the taste was even more amazing. When both of them were full, the plates and bowls on the table were all cleaned up. While washing the dishes, the two of them stood together, and Du Yue could not help sighing. If I had known that the price of pork is so high now, I wouldn't have chosen to open a shop. Instead, I would've decided to raise pigs.

He Xing stopped washing the dishes and looked at Du Yue in surprise. Are you serious? It won't be as easy as running a restaurant.

Seeing He Xing's reaction, Du Yue could not help but ask, What's the matter? Do you think it's too dirty to rear pigs?

Of course not! He Xing replied seriously, I'm not afraid of any dirty or tiring work. I'm just wondering where we can get their feed if we really rear pigs. How long would it take before we can slaughter them? If we only raise one or two, we might not even be able to recover our capital in the short term.

Du Yue was just making a casual remark, but after hearing He Xing's considerations, she began to think about it seriously. After mulling it over in her heart for a long time, Du Yue nodded seriously. You have a point. Pork is being sold for 30 contribution points per 500 grams, so the price of a live cub would definitely be higher. Moreover, we can't be casual about what they eat. If they don't eat well, they won't gain weight, and our efforts will be in vain.

In this way, the cost of raising pigs was too high, and the risk of raising animals was greater than opening a store. If the pig died by accident, it could be said that they would lose all their money. Du Yue quickly waved her hands. Luckily, we're not rearing pigs. It's better to run a restaurant.

She washed all the dishes and put the things that needed to be put into her interspace. She put the things that she wanted to use in the restaurant aside and brought them with her when she went out the next day. Just as the two of them were about to take a break, they heard Wan Dapeng's excited voice from the walkie-talkie. Brother, Sister, after I came back today, I discussed it with the chief of the base. She agreed to let me form a scavenger team and call it Sunshine Team. I'll lead my people and set off tomorrow morning!

Du Yue and He Xing had already expected this outcome, so they were not surprised at all. He Xing picked up the walkie-talkie and said, Brother Wan, you have to prepare more things before you leave, especially food and water. I don't think you'll manage to come back in one day.
