In years of famine and drought, their village even rejected fatty meat.

Zheng Qiuyan extended her fair, jade-like hand to take the list. After reviewing it, she parted her lips slightly and said, "Well done."

Manager Wang was delighted to receive Zheng Qiuyan's praise, and then said, "Besides this batch of goods, I also discovered a special item in Ding'an County this time."

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Zheng Qiuyan's beautiful eyes. Goods that Manager Wang described as "special" were clearly not ordinary items.

"What goods?" Zheng Qiuyan asked.

"It is a breed of chicken called the Blood Feather Chicken."

Manager Qi called in the waiter who was waiting outside and pointed to the chicken coop in the waiter's hand, saying, "This chicken has a miraculous effect on martial artists. It is said to help martial artists quickly increase their qi and blood and break through bottlenecks."

"Oh?"

Zheng Qiuyan's calm expression finally changed slightly. Her gaze fell on the two palm-sized blood-feathered chickens in the cage, and she asked, "Really?"

"I have already confirmed with the martial artists in Ding'an County that this chicken does indeed have this effect, and its help to martial artists is far greater than that of herbs!"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Qiuyan stood up, staring at the blood-feathered chicken in the cage, and said to the maid beside her, "Take a chicken and kill it to test its effects."

"Yes!"

The maidservant acted quickly, taking a chicken to the kitchen and soon bringing out a bowl of chicken blood.

"Qingying, you give it a try." The girl said to a woman with a heroic appearance who had been following her.

"it is good!"

The girl named Qingying nodded, picked up the chicken blood, and drank it all in one gulp!

Soon, Qingying's complexion changed slightly. She felt a heat rising in her lower abdomen, and her blood and qi began to boil.

Upon seeing this, Zheng Qiuyan's eyes flashed with surprise. As the eldest daughter of the Zheng family, her understanding of martial artists far surpassed that of ordinary people, and she naturally knew that Qingying's current state was a sign of her blood and qi boiling.

Shopkeeper Wang explained from the side, "According to the martial artists of Ding'an County, the blood of this chicken has a powerful effect, and its effect on increasing qi and blood far surpasses that of medicinal herbs. The chicken meat can also slowly nourish the martial artist's body and qi and blood, and its effect is no less than that of the flesh and blood of demonic beasts."

“It has such a miraculous effect?”

Zheng Qiuyan murmured in surprise.

Meanwhile, the woman named Qingying could no longer bear the boiling blood and qi in her body, and couldn't help but walk to the open space next to her to practice the Zheng family's family martial art, Cloud Shadow Palm.

After a moment, Qingying, who had suppressed the boiling blood and qi in her body, put down her stance and said with bright eyes, "Miss, this chicken blood is very effective. I feel that my blood and qi have increased a lot, and the bottleneck of the seventh grade has also loosened a bit."

Qingying was Zheng Qiuyan's personal maid, responsible for protecting Zheng Qiuyan's safety. Her own strength had long since reached the peak of the eighth rank. She had not felt any progress in martial arts for a long time. Now that her blood and qi had suddenly increased, she was naturally happy.

How did you obtain this item?

Zheng Qiuyan suddenly turned to look at Manager Wang, her gaze warm.

From Qingying's answer, she had confirmed the effects of the Blood Feather Chicken, which made her very interested.

If the Blood Feather Chicken has such miraculous effects, then wouldn't it mean that... as long as you have enough Blood Feather Chickens, you can quickly cultivate a large number of martial artists?

Even if it's not used to train martial artists, it can be sold. Zheng Qiuyan has no doubt that this kind of magical chicken breed will fetch a very high price.

"It was brought to Ding'an County by a merchant from Taiping County to sell."

Manager Wang answered truthfully.

Zheng Qiuyan frowned. For many people in the county town, Taiping County was nothing more than a remote and impoverished place. Unexpectedly, this amazing breed of chicken came from Taiping County.

Do you know that merchant from Taiping County?

Shopkeeper Wang shook his head and said, "These two blood-feathered chickens were obtained from Wei Jing of my Weiwu Escort Agency. The merchants from Taiping County have never seen them before."

Pity.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Zheng Qiuyan's eyes; she had been hoping to get more Bloodfeather Chickens from that merchant.

"but……"

Shopkeeper Wang changed the subject, saying, "That merchant told the martial artist in Ding'an County that he would go to Ding'an County again to sell Blood Feather Chicken in the future."

Hearing this, Zheng Qiuyan's eyes lit up. The fact that the merchant would go to Ding'an County again to sell blood-feathered chickens meant that the merchant had a stable source of blood-feathered chickens. In other words, she could cooperate with the merchant from Taiping County to transport the blood-feathered chickens to the county town for sale!

"Shopkeeper Wang!"

Zheng Qiuyan quickly instructed, "Go to Taiping County and try your best to find that merchant and cooperate with him!"

"Yes!"

…………

…………

Several days later, a sizable caravan slowly approached outside the city gate of Taiping County.

"stop."

The soldiers guarding the city dutifully stopped the caravan and conducted an inspection.

Shopkeeper Wang got off the cart and said to the soldiers guarding the city, "Sirs, we are a merchant caravan from the county town. Please do us a favor!"

The soldiers guarding the city remained unmoved and persisted in conducting the checks.

Fortunately, there were no prohibited goods in Manager Wang's caravan, so they were quickly allowed to pass and enter Taiping County.

However, once inside the city, Manager Wang looked at the bustling crowds with a hint of bewilderment in his eyes.

"Shopkeeper Wang."

A woman named Qingying approached Manager Wang and asked, "How should we find that merchant?"

Manager Wang pondered for a moment. He was not familiar with Taiping County and had no clue how to find the merchant.

"Let's find a restaurant to stay in first, then we can ask around."

After a moment of contemplation, Manager Wang made this decision.

Soon after, the caravan settled in Taihua Restaurant, where Manager Wang led Qingying and the rest of the caravan to dine in the lobby on the first floor.

"Dude."

Manager Wang beckoned to a waiter and curiously pointed to the menu, asking, "What kind of dish is this stir-fried yellow-feathered chicken? I've never heard of it before."

"Sir, you must be from out of town?"

The waiter glanced at Manager Wang and said with a smile, "This yellow-feathered chicken is a specialty of our Taiping County. The breed used is a top-quality yellow-feathered chicken transported from Chenjia Village. Every customer who has eaten this yellow-feathered chicken has said it's delicious. Sir, you'll know once you try it. It's definitely worth the price!"

Manager Wang and Qingying exchanged a glance, immediately realizing something, and asked the shop assistant without showing any emotion, "Where is this Chen Family Village you mentioned?"

"You don't know Chenjia Village?"

The waiter glanced at Manager Wang and the others, seemingly surprised by their ignorance, but then he thought that it was normal for these people to be from out of town and not know about Chenjia Village.

"Chenjia Village is the most famous village in our Taiping County!"

The waiter explained, "Chenjia Village has somehow managed to breed many amazing chicken breeds. The yellow-feathered chickens we sell in our restaurant come from Chenjia Village."
