Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Surprise in the wood and Going to town with Zhang Yong
Bai Yi Yang will occasionally look at her two younger siblings playing at the edge of the wood, now they are lingering around the clear area that Bai Yi Yang recently cut off trees. The tree branches are only put aside so it was still quite messy.
The children is quite clever since they didn't go to the messy area, so Bai Yi Yang is not worried. Well, until she heard them calling and running towards them in rush.
"What is it?!" Bai Yi Yang leave her hoe on the ground and rush over towards them. She is already guessing the worse case which is them encountering snakes in the bushes. Bai Yi Chen also took the machete and rush over.
"I am scared..Fang Fang said she heard crying voice.." Xiao Mo came to hug Bai Yi Yang thigh. Bai Yi Fang also looks a bit scared.
"Crying voice?" Bai Yi Yang raise her eyebrows as she look at Bai Yi Fang.
"What is it?" Bai Yi Chen ask worriedly.
"En, en. I heard crying sound…but it's not like Xiao Nian.." Bai Yi Fang said, the Xiao Nian she is talking about is the Li second branch 2 years old daughter. Bai Yi Yang lips twitch, did she enter a wrong genre, why does it suddenly have horror elements.
"You are talking nonsense. I didn't hear anything." Bai Yi Mo contraindicated his sister.
"I hear it…I already ask you but you pull me to ran instead.." Bai Yi Fang said. Only then Bai Yi Yang and Bai Yi Chen sigh in relief. As long as it's nothing dangerous. Things like ghost, of course Bai Yi Yang doesn't believe that ghost will come out this time.
"Most probably some animals deep in the forest. Some animals make sound similar to crying sound." Bai Yi Chen said to the two children.
"Jiejie, aren't we going to save it…it sounds so sad.." Bai Yi Fang said.
"Why are you looking for it? Who knows what sound you hear." Bai Yi Mo doesn't plan to go near the area again, it is a bit scary. What if it's really..
"But.." Bai Yi Fang pouted.
"Alright, you bring me." Bai Yi Yang agree, she let Bai Yi Fang hold her hand and lead her to the place she heard the sound. Bai Yi Chen also follow behind just in case. So, Bai Yi Mo also need to follow along in the end. When they arrive at the place, Bai Yi Fang start calling.
"Hello…hello.." She said as she clap her hands and call. Not long after that, there really is whimpering sound, to be exact it was small animals whimpering sounds. Bai Yi Yang and Bai Yi Chen look at each other. Sounds like small puppies. Bai Yi Yang feel an incoming headache, here it comes.
"See.. I told you I heard it.." Bai Yi Fang said.
'Tongtong, is it puppies?' She ask.
'Yes. Host, take it, take it back!' The system become excited, if it can jump then it will be jumping now.
"It sounds like puppies.." Bai Yi Chen said. Before Bai Yi Yang can say anything, Bai Yi Chen step forward try to remove the tree branch.
"Puppies?!" The two children eyes widened.
Bai Yi Yang can only help Bai Yi Chen to search. She told her two siblings not to come to close in case of some poisonous animals. And after searching with the help of the system, they found two pitiful looking puppies barely had their eyes opened moving around under a tree.
"Woah!!" The two children ran forward but didn't immediately touch it, they squat next to the puppies. Bai Yi Yang look at it, they had fluffy fur though it is wet but they doesn't look like any common breed that she knows.
'It's a mixed breeds. Host, just like what Bai Yi Fang want, it has fluffy fur.' The system said excitedly, if the the host take the two puppies in, they will become her colleague in the future ah.
'Can they survived if we take them back?' Bai Yi Yang ask.
'Yes, they have wild dog genetics in them, there are also wolf genetic and also other. They are very adaptable.'
'Wild dogs? Won't they seek their puppies back?' Bai Yi Yang is worried.
'There are no trace of other wild animals. Mist probably the mother gave birth and abandoned them.' The system said.
"Jie, can we take them back?" Bai Yi Fang ask. She really like this two puppies.
"Okay, we can bring them home. As promised, Fang Fang will take responsibility. If you agree then we will bring them in. We won't be the one responsible for it, understand?" Bai Yi Yang said.
Bai Yi Fang frown. She thought hard then look at the two puppies. They are covered in mud and dirt, it is hard to see their real look, what if she dislike them after seeing their real appearance? What more, they will become her responsibility, unlike when she played enough with her xiao gege bicycle where she can just leave it there, she will have to care for them.
"I agree..jiejie, we bring them back bah." Bai Yi Fang said. Bai Yi Yang nod and smile.
"Alright, we bring them back." Bai Yi Yang agree. Because of the dirty puppies, Bai Yi Yang let Bai Yi Chen help bring the two. It was quite big for a puppy, their whimpering sound also increase when Bai Yi Chen pick them up. Bai Yi Yang didn't follow the three people back, she continue doing her farm work. Bai Yi Chen can handle it.
When Bai Yi Chen returns, he is alone. He said that the two children is tending to the two puppies with Bai Yi Ling. Bai Yi Yang nod.
After working for another 30 minutes, she stop working. Bai Yi Yang sigh and put down the tools she is holding.
[ 13 points earned. Total points:186 points.]
Bai Yi Chen looked at her, wondering why she stop and also what with the long sigh.
"Why?" Bai Yi Chen ask.
"The puppies won't survive long if we didn't feed it properly. I will go ask Big brother Zhang if there is anything that can be done." Bai Yi Yang said.
"Alright, go." Bai Yi Chen nod. Just now, he just ask the children to feed the puppies with water. He also doesn't know what to do to be honest.
Bai Yi Yang returns to the house and saw her siblings tending to the puppies in the living room and sigh again, having pets is really similar to taking care of children. She went to the kitchen and call Zhang Yong.
"I saw your siblings brought puppies back." Zhang Yong said with a smile as he come to her.
"That's the problem.." Bai Yi Yang said. Zhang Yong laugh and took off his glove. They had progressed quite a lot with the work, the outline can be seen now.
"Will you be returning to the town later? I am thinking if I can follow along." Bai Yi Yang ask. This may trouble Zhang Yong but she also don't have a choice now.
"Come, I will drive you to town. It's almost time for lunch, I will buy some food for my partners too." Zhang Yong said with a smile.
"Alright, then let me change for a bit." Bai Yi Yang said. She returns to the Main house, only now can she see the puppies properly. They are clean and dry, one is black and white colour while the other is brownish white colour.
Bai Yi Fang has let them lie on an old towel, she also lied next to them laughing when the puppies walk unstably and try to find milk. The children doesn't understand so they think that the puppies is just playing around. Bai Yi Yang quickly change her clothes and went out.
"I am heading to town for a while. You stay at home, jiejie will buy lunch, just cook the rice in the clay pot." Bai Yi Yang said to Bai Yi Ling. The children was confused with the sudden going to town.
Zhang Yong is already inside the car and call Bai Yi Yang to take the passenger seat. Bai Yi Yang didn't reject, it's rude to seat behind when there is no people sitting in front. They pass through the mountain road with no problem, then through the muddy village road.
"I heard there are flood in this village. If I knew I would have come later." Zhang Yong said.
"Yes. Our house is not affected so there is no problem. It's just that I wasn't sure about the road so that's why I ask you to come by tomorrow." Bai Yi Yang said.
"The road is fine, a little mud is nothing. No wonder I saw a lot of debris on the side of the road." He add. Bai Yi Yang briefly told him about the flood in the village, how many people have to move out to the local flood centre.
"Your house in the mountain is a bit far from the main road but at least it doesn't get flooded." Zhang Yong smile.
"A blessing in disguise." Bai Yi Yang add.
Bot of them talk along the way, Zhang Yong indeed talk a lot, but she doesn't feel that distant from him anymore. Bai Yi Yang thought that Zhang Yong is a carefree soul from a rich family but didn't know that he is like one of the oddball who is willing to suffer rather than get involved in the family business. He has his own way of thought.
"So your family is rich? The friend who owns a supermarket that you are talking about is actually your partner right?" Bai Yi Yang said. She doesn't look that shock, just become more curious. Why does someone who have good family background and also a supermarket branch need to do the hard work rather than managing his business?
"My family is a bit rich to be honest, so does Zhang Li Li, she is my cousin remember. But as you can see both of us choose this job, we get to travel to a lot of place and it is quite fun. As for the supermarket, well you caught me..He is my partner, he help manage the supermarket for me. It's not really a big supermarket, more like a big grocery store." Zhang Yong laugh.
"That's something that I do on the side, we only have a few branches for now. That's why, as a responsible owner, I wanted you to sell your products to me." Zhang Yong said, half joking half serious.
"Alright, but not everything, I also promised an uncle to sell to him. Just not too much, he owns a small restaurant, the one he purchased before is already enough for a while." Bai Yi Yang said.
"Excellent! Then when we go back, let's write a contract." Zhang Yong said happily, he cannot help but wanted to immediately call his friend who mainly manage the supermarket.
"Alright, I can't promise a huge amount since they are wild mushrooms, how about we agree with at least 10 kinds with at least 3kg monthly. I can provide more if there is more, pick up time will be every 15th of the month." Bai Yi Yang said, she is confident with this much amount.
"Deal." Zhang Yong smile brightly. With these rare products, weren't their supermarket going to blow up. He had thought of many promotional methods, limited purchase and limited amount available per day. The amount that Bai Yi Yang provide is really not much, but wild mushrooms is not like commercially produced mushroom, if it were commercially produced the why did he need to try this hard to get it.
They chat a bit more, since they are business partner now, Zhang Yong told her a lot more about the supermarket. They don't have one in the town, it is based in City Nan where natural wild products are harder to find, no wonder the Zhang elders sends that much gift, it was really some good things from the mountain.
