Fang Zhao and Zuo Yu boarded Su Feng's flying transport the next day and headed to Muzhou together.
Four Elephants Food was doing rather well. The influence of Polar Light's image had risen once again because of the SilverLight team and Fang Zhao, who was number one on the leaderboards. Four Elephants Food's sales were slightly better than other Muzhou brands, and it was rather popular among young people. After all, among young people, there were more people who played games or paid attention to gaming circles.
"This year's Memorial Day gifts have been sent out. Your Silver Wing will definitely not be lacking. It will be delivered tomorrow. It just so happens that someone from your department has received it." Su Feng's Memorial Day gifts this year were even more lavish than last year's. Since the profits were good, he naturally would not be stingy.
After lamenting the fact that Fang Zhao was AliveAfter500Years and the expensive team uniform, Su Feng brought up the matter of Dongshan Farm.
"Oh right, that kid Su Hou got beaten up by his dad recently," Su Feng said with a laugh.
Every once in a while, Su Hou would update Fang Zhao on his progress, and Fang Zhao had some understanding of the current state of the farm. However, Su Hou had not sent him any video calls. He had only sent some text messages, and he did not turn on video mode during calls.
"Quarrel?" Fang Zhao asked. The messy affairs of the Su family were no secret. Muzhou's entertainment reporters loved to report on the various struggles of the Su family.
"Yeah, Su Hou fought with his half-brother. Guess what the outcome was?" Su Feng grinned widely. Without waiting for Fang Zhao to reply, he continued, "I heard that neither side brought bodyguards, but the other side had two people. One was about the same age as Su Hou, and the other was a few years older. Su Hou was slightly injured, but the other two were more seriously injured. Because Su Hou brought a dog! Hahahaha! "
Su Feng rocked back and forth in laughter, almost falling off his chair.
"He brought that little Curly Hair of yours. No wonder he's a champion dog. His battle prowess is not small."
As they spoke, the flying transport had already arrived at Dongshan Farm and landed on the tarmac. Su Hou, who had received the news, was already waiting there.
Su Hou's face no longer bore any traces of being beaten up by his dad. He had been treated.
Curly Hair ran over like the wind and circled Fang Zhao, wagging his tail vigorously and whining to express his excitement at seeing Fang Zhao.
"You're in good spirits." Fang Zhao picked Curly Hair up to take a look. Curly Hair had quite a bit of grass stuck to him, but he could tell that he had taken care of it. The areas near the skin were still very clean. Curly Hair had probably been playing in the underbrush earlier.
"Master Zhao! Long time no see! " Su Hou's tone was agitated. In the past, Fang Zhao had only been his business partner, someone who had helped him out of his predicament. Su Hou was very grateful, but now, he truly worshipped Fang Zhao.
Su Hou was not old enough to log into "Battle of the Century," but he had always been paying attention to gaming news. When Fang Zhao had revealed his identity as AliveAfter500Years, Su Hou had also been shocked. After the shock, he had been excited. It was difficult for others to even meet AliveAfter500Years, but he called Fang Zhao every week, even though it was just to talk about the farm.
Previously, he had only known about the changes to the farm through videos. Now that Fang Zhao was here, Su Hou led the way and told Fang Zhao which plots of land would be used for what purposes.
"The soil has been improved, and the seeds planted there have already grown. They are growing well and will be able to survive the winter. There is no need to deliberately protect them from the cold. As for that side, it is still empty. When spring comes, a new batch of seeds will be planted. They were given to me by my older brother and were cultivated in the space laboratory. Actually, they have been cultivated for a long time, but they have been suppressed all these years to see if their fruits are safe. But now, it has been confirmed that they can be planted.
What I have is the first batch... "Su Hou introduced the various parts of the farm to Fang Zhao in a practiced manner. The current Dongshan Farm had fields, pastures, and expanded houses for the workers to live in.
Su Hou was no longer the little fatty who did not know anything. He had put in a lot of effort into farming.
As he watched, a pack of dogs barked and ran over.
The few large dogs leading the pack looked a little familiar to Fang Zhao. They were not from Wu Yi's farm. The few dogs from last year's competition had been returned to Wu Yi. Only Curly Hair was still here.
"Those are the dogs left behind by the previous farm owner?" Fang Zhao asked Su Hou as he looked at the few well-proportioned and energetic dogs that were charging at the front.
"Yes, those are the ones," Su Hou replied.
The dogs that were running closer started barking when they saw the unfamiliar faces of Fang Zhao and Zuo Yu. However, after Curly Hair growled, they stopped.
"They used to be too lazy and unwary. I hired a dog trainer, but it didn't have much of an effect. The trainer said that the dogs were already useless, and no matter how much they were trained, it wouldn't have much effect. However, ever since Curly Hair came, they started to change... "
Su Hou was in high spirits as he rambled on and on about the dogs to Fang Zhao.
Usually, when Su Hou called Fang Zhao, he basically talked about the farm. He had also mentioned the dogs, but he did not go into detail. Now, Su Hou had finally found the opportunity to tell Fang Zhao in detail. This was also what he was most proud of, and he had flaunted it to others many times.
Look, even the trainers had given up on the dogs. Weren't they gradually getting better on our farm?!
Those dogs had indeed been useless in the past. Otherwise, Su Hou would not have needed to borrow Wu Yi's dogs. Now, they were no longer as dispirited and dispirited as before. They had also let down their guard. At first, they had learned from Curly Hair. When Curly Hair saw strangers and barked, they would follow suit. If they did not bark or barked at the wrong time, Curly Hair would teach them a lesson. Gradually, as time passed, they also understood some simple things. They knew to bark when they saw strangers, selectively bark when they saw acquaintances and strangers, and bark when they did not understand. In any case, if they barked wrongly, the owner would stop them.
"Although they can't compare to Curly Hair or those dogs on Wu Yi's farm, they are much better than before. They can do some basic guard work. They are also learning how to shepherd. I don't expect them to participate in competitions in the future, but they can do simple guard work. They are considered semi-qualified working dogs. "Su Hou did not have high expectations for them, and he was already very satisfied with their current results.
Actually, these dogs had all been cooped up. Sleeping when it was time to run? Bite! Wandering around when it was time to guard? Bite! Not following the rules when it was time to eat, snatching and overturning the food bowl? Bite! Excitedly rushing over when he saw a suspicious person? Ruthlessly bite!
Listening to Su Hou's words, Fang Zhao felt that Curly Hair was treating these dogs like little brothers and was purely looking for some fun.
"These few puppies are the ones I told you about. I got someone to buy them and train them for competitions. They are all dogs with champion blood in them. I practically spent all the money I had painstakingly saved up to buy them." Muzhou dogs were expensive, especially the descendants of champion dogs. They were even more expensive!
In other continents, some rich kids liked to buy luxury cars when they had money and drive them every day. But in Muzhou, rich kids liked to buy dogs. Even if Su Feng, the boss of Four Elephants Food, did not participate in sheep-herding competitions, he would still buy good looking dogs.
These few puppies on the farm, as well as the puppies that Su Hou had ordered but had yet to arrive on the farm, had spent all the money Su Hou had painstakingly saved up. He had used all the money he had earned from advertising, prize money for competitions, red packets given to him by other members of the Su family, etc. Luckily, with Fang Zhao as an investor, the farm's construction had not stopped.
"There is no need to do any rodent control this year. There are basically no rodents within the boundaries of our farm. I heard that there used to be quite a number of rabbits and other small wild animals around here, but I have not seen any..." Su Hou continued. He had only thought of this at the last minute and was sighing ruefully.
Fang Zhao glanced at Curly Hair, who was at his feet. Curly Hair raised his head and glanced at him. His ears drooped and he averted his gaze.
Back at Wu Yi's farm, Curly Hair had caught field mice with Bingo and the other dogs and eaten them. Fang Zhao suspected that all the field mice on the farm had been eaten by Curly Hair. Perhaps the wild rabbits near the farm had also suffered a calamity.
Su Hou led Fang Zhao to a newly built courtyard. This was the courtyard that the owner of the farm lived in.
"This house was specially prepared for Master Zhao. You don't have to worry about not having a place to stay whenever you come," Su Hou said.
"What's that over there?" Fang Zhao pointed to a room in the corner. There was a "No Entry" sign hanging there.
"Oh, that's my own gaming room. Oh right, my dad said he would give me a 10th-generation console. Even if it doesn't arrive today, it will definitely arrive tomorrow." Su Hou seemed to be in a good mood.
Su Hou's father had given a farm to an illegitimate son. Su Hou's quarrel with his father wasn't just because his father had wrongly accused him of deliberately letting dogs bite his two half-brothers, but also because his father had given him a farm. Although it was just a small farm and could not compare to Dongshan Farm or the land he had received as a champion, Su Hou was still unhappy.
After Su Hou had been beaten up, he had run to the cemetery with his face full of injuries and complained tearfully to Su Mu's grave. The next day, the entertainment news in Muzhou was all about the internal strife of the Su family. People thought they would see an exciting and colorful struggle between the rich and powerful.
But very quickly, perhaps because Su Hou's father had found out the truth about the "dog biting incident" and had found his conscience, or because of the public opinion and pressure from within the family, he had given Su Hou the 10th-generation console that Su Hou had been longing for. After that, Su Hou received treatment and the injuries on his face were healed. For the time being, he did not go against his father.
In the eyes of the Muzhou masses, Su Hou was an idiot. He was young and ignorant. Indeed, he was childish. His father's level was still higher. A gaming console had been able to settle this internal strife.
The majority of Muzhou people did not care about the model of the gaming console. Rather than getting a ridiculously expensive 10th-generation console, they might as well buy a 9th-generation upgrade. That way, they could play the latest games. The money saved could also be used to buy new seeds or dogs.
Among the 12 continents, Muzhou was the continent with the lowest e-sports standards. It was not that they could not afford to play or did not have the time to play. It was just that compared to crops, land, and dogs, gaming was not that important. It was just a spice to life. Between watching a gaming competition and watching a sheep-herding competition, most people would choose the latter.
