Reborn in 95, I unearthed a gold mine after the family split up.

Chapter 116 We Need to Spend Money to Buy Eggs

"Yes, yes, my mother-in-law often carries a bamboo basket, puts chicken, duck and goose eggs in it, and goes to the market to sell them."

Upon hearing Wang Guihua's words, Zhang Dong quickly waved his hand.

“Don’t mention your mother-in-law. This is a farm, not like the dozen or so chickens, ducks and geese you raise at home. All the eggs from now on must be sorted.”

"In addition, I have another request regarding these duck and goose eggs."

"Another requirement?" The zookeepers gaped in shock.

Zhang Dong didn't hide anything: "Yes, my idea is to take these eggs to the city to sell."

"These duck eggs need further processing to become salted duck eggs and end up on people's tables. Through this processing, we can increase their price."

"In addition, we can use these goose eggs as fertilized eggs to hatch another batch of goslings..."

Upon hearing Zhang Dong's plan, the farmers couldn't help but beam with joy.

"What? You want to do further processing? And you want to expand the scale of the farm?"

Seeing the delighted expressions on the faces of his several zookeepers, Zhang Dong nodded.

"That's right. Next, you should also inform the other farmers in the breeding pens that the eggs must be packaged in this way and not mixed together. Otherwise, rework will be a big problem."

"Okay, boss, I'll inform them right away."

“Our chicken, duck and goose farm has more than a dozen breeding pens. Their situation may be the same as ours.”

Upon hearing Zhang Dong's arrangement, one of the keepers hurried to the other pens to relay Zhang Dong's orders.

The zookeepers who received the notification were also excited.

"What? Our boss is going to expand the business? That's great!"

"Hmm, processing duck eggs and continuing to incubate goose eggs... what's going on in our boss's head? How does he come up with so many ideas?"

An older man, who was expressing his feelings, was mocked by others around him before he could finish speaking.

"It's a waste to compare yourself to others, Uncle Dashan, stop lamenting."

"Don't let the fact that your son is the same age as Zhang Dong fool you; right now, your son is working in Zhang Dong's mine, digging for minerals with his butt sticking out."

“But Zhang Dong not only developed several mines, but also has a jade carving company in the city, a large restaurant in the county, and a large-scale breeding farm in the village.”

"Comparison is a recipe for disaster; without comparison, there is no harm..."

"Cough cough, you little bastard, now that you've said that, I don't even have the right to express my feelings anymore."

Uncle Dashan's face was full of anger, but he sighed inwardly.

They're right, comparing people is a recipe for disaster, comparing goods is a recipe for disaster.

What makes me any less than Zhang Guangming? So why can't I have a son like Zhang Dong?

"Tang Guo, next you go to our mine and find those truck drivers. Ask them to take all these eggs to the county town when they're hauling ore out."

"However, you should carefully remind these drivers, they are all careless, don't let them break the eggs. Tell them that if they break, they will have to pay for everything."

"Okay, Brother Dong, that's a good idea. It reduces shipping costs."

Zhang Dong nodded, though of course, this was only a temporary measure.

Once the chickens at the farm are laying eggs in large quantities, it becomes impractical to have truck drivers transport the eggs to the county town.

However, not all the chickens on the farm are laying eggs yet, so having them make a few trips does reduce operating costs.

At the entrance of the Great Wall Hotel, along with Zhang Dong, several baskets of free-range eggs were also brought along when he got off the bus.

"Hey, our boss has finally shown up—"

Several waiters exclaimed in surprise when they saw Zhang Dong get off the truck.

"The boss is here!"

Inside the transparent kitchen, after hearing the waiter's scream, Dao Ge and the other two chefs also saw Zhang Dong getting out of the car, and they quickly ran out of the kitchen.

"Brother, why did you get so many eggs? Did you come to the city to sell eggs?"

During this time, Dao Ge already knew that Zhang Dong had set up a breeding farm in the village.

"Haha, wrong. I don't want to sell the eggs myself. I want our restaurant to buy them at the market price."

This surprised Brother Dao: "No way, Brother Zhang Dong, aren't you just passing the money from your left hand to your right?"

"Our restaurant is yours, the village's farm is yours, so why would we need to pay you for your eggs?"

Seeing Dao Ge's doubts, Zhang Dong burst into laughter.

"Haha, this restaurant is run by me alone, so you're right."

"But this farm in the village was built by me and everyone else through joint fundraising, and of course I took the lion's share."

"Because it's not my sole investment, my restaurant has to pay for these eggs."

Seeing how serious the boss was, the waitresses couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Haha, that's ridiculous. I've never heard of such a strange thing before."

Zhang Dong had no choice; even brothers have to settle accounts clearly.

Since the farm was built with funds raised by the villagers, his idea was to quickly distribute a sum of money to the villagers after it became profitable.

This would be the greatest reward for the villagers who supported him, and it would also make those who withdrew their shares extremely regretful.

"Boss, I didn't know about these farms. You even asked the villagers to raise funds. If that's the case, you should settle the accounts clearly."

Having understood the situation, Brother Dao fully supported Zhang Dong's decision.

As he said this, Brother Dao's gaze fell on the eggs in the baskets, and his eyes immediately lit up: "These pure free-range eggs smell amazing when stir-fried with scallions."

"Next, we will launch an affordable, delicious egg and scallion stir-fry."

"Quickly put a notice on the bulletin board that our restaurant will be serving this dish at noon today."

"Okay okay."

The other two chefs agreed and quickly picked up pens to write the words "newest dishes" on the notice board.

Zhang Dong was very satisfied with Dao Ge's arrangement.

Because Brother Dao was in charge here, Zhang Dong didn't ask his father to come to the city to oversee the restaurant after he returned.

He now feels that sending his father was completely unnecessary. Brother Dao is very loyal and principled; he will resolutely not take anything he shouldn't.

Just by the fact that he stopped seeking out Hai Ba Wang and his underlings after his release from prison, you can tell that he just wanted to live a peaceful and quiet life.

"Brother Dao, the farm has now achieved initial profitability. My plan is to have our restaurant use these eggs."

"Of course, as the peak egg-laying season approaches, our restaurant definitely won't be able to handle the demand. At that time, you can contact the restaurant alliance and ask Hai Ba Wang and the others to help us process the eggs."

"Okay, boss, don't worry. I will only sell these eggs to Hai Ba Wang and his gang if our restaurant can't use them all. Everything is up to us."
