Siheyuan: Cao Liang's rise

The next day.

When Cao Liang got up, Gangzi was gone. On the square table beside the bed lay a bowl of corn porridge and two steamed buns, which should be his breakfast.

I went out to ask Gangzi's mother and found out that Gangzi had already gone out.

He should have gone to deliver food to Gu Wen and Wang Dong.

After going back to the house and having breakfast, Cao Liang had nothing to do, so he closed the door and entered the space.

After planting the wheat and corn seeds, an acre of land was completely filled.

Looking closely, green sprouts have already appeared in the fields where potatoes and sweet potatoes are planted.

As expected, the flow rate is five times faster. It sprouted in just one day.

The growth cycle of potatoes is about three months, so it will take at most half a month to mature.

Cao Liang went to check the ranch again.

As for large animals, there is still one wild boar and four wolves left.

However, because Cao Liang didn't feed them, the wild boars were probably in a state of low spirits. The wolves were in even worse condition and looked like they wouldn't live long.

The animals on the ranch are kept separately.

The rabbits were fine, at least they could still eat grass. Cao Liang even saw a few more little rabbits.

As expected of a rabbit, its reproductive ability is strong.

Taking into account the speed of time, it only took five days at most for the number to increase.

The pheasants are also doing well. Cao Liang saw a few pheasants laying eggs, and the number will definitely increase in the future.

But food was a problem.

Forget about the wolf. Cao Liang plans to sell the wolf when Chi Hu gets the piglets.

But let’s talk about the wild boar later.

Cao Liang made some cornmeal for the pheasants and wild boars to eat.

There is an inexhaustible spring in the space, so there is no need to worry about the water source.

As for whether it was a spiritual spring and whether it was good for the body, Cao Liang couldn't tell. He just felt that the water inside was much sweeter than the water outside.

At present, the space is still small, so we can only grow some crops and raise some animals.

It would be nice if there is a place for aquaculture later on.

When Cao Liang had free time, he also studied how to upgrade the space, but in the end he gained nothing.

In this case, we can only take one step at a time.

"Brother, dear brother, I'm coming."

When Cao Liang finished his work and just came out of the space, he heard a hurried voice.

With a "bang", the door was kicked open.

Wang Dong slid to Cao Liang's front and hugged his thighs. "Brother, you are my brother, please accept my knee!"

Gangzi said angrily: "Dongzi, you want to die, right? You don't have hands, right?"

"Hey, I'm just in a hurry to thank my dear brother!"

Wang Dong had a smirk on his face.

Gangzi was too lazy to pay attention to him and went to fix the door.

Gu Wen then entered the room and said seriously, "Liangzi, thank you."

Cao Liang knew they were talking about food.

He smiled and said, "We are all brothers, it's only natural. It just so happens that you are here. I recently found a way and I plan to lend a hand to you brothers."

Wang Dong patted his chest when he heard that. "That's for sure. Even if it means going through fire and water, as long as you tell me, I will be there whenever you call."

Gu Wen sneered, "Just your little arms and legs? Apart from running faster, I really don't see any advantages in you."

"Mosquito you..."

Gu Wen didn't bother to pay attention to him and asked seriously: "Liangzi, is the road safe?"

"Gu Wen, what do you mean?"

When Wang Dong heard this, he was immediately dissatisfied.

We are all brothers, how can I harm you?

Gangzi also frowned.

Cao Liang waved his hand and said, "Mosquito doesn't mean that."

"That's right. Liangzi is also my buddy. How can I not trust him?"

Gu Wen explained: "I am worried about Liangzi. Liangzi is the mainstay of the family now. We can be in trouble, but he can't."

The parents of the three of them are still alive, but Cao Liang now only has a mother.

Hearing this, Gangzi and Wang Dong nodded.

What Gu Wen said is correct.

Cao Liang smiled and said, "Don't worry. Since I can do it, it is absolutely safe. Even for my mother and brothers and sisters at home, I will not joke with myself."

"Liangzi, what's the plan?" Wang Dong hooked his arm around Cao Liang's neck and asked with a smile.

Cao Liang looked at Gangzi, and Gangzi told him what happened last night.

"What! Liangzi, you made several hundred dollars last night?" Wang Dong exclaimed, "No, you have to treat us. Not to mention roast duck, you have to treat us to a meal at Donglaishun."

Gu Wen pushed his glasses and said unhappily, "Dongzi, you are focusing on the wrong thing. You should be focusing on the fact that Liangzi got a blind bear."

"Ah, yes, yes."

Wang Dong looked at Cao Liang in shock, "Liangzi, you are so awesome. You actually caught a blind bear?"

Cao Liang smiled and said, "Well, that's the thing. I plan to take Gangzi to the mountains to hunt, and you are responsible for trading it on the black market. Don't worry, I have already found a way. I will take you to identify the person another day."

"Liangzi, how about we go hunting with us? It will be safer with more people." Wang Dong asked tentatively.

Gu Wen also nodded in agreement.

Although Cao Liang said it easily, hunting is not that simple. If you are not careful, you may lose your life.

Gangzi bluntly said: "You two are too weak. If you go, you will only become a burden to us."

Wang Dong said with a sad face: "Gangzi, although you are telling the truth, you are hurtful when you say this, do you know?"

Gangzi ignored him and continued repairing the door.

"Although Gangzi's words are blunt, they are also true."

Cao Liang continued, "It's hard to find a job nowadays. I have to take this risk to give my family a good life. Besides, I have other ways. I can get some food and maybe find a job for everyone."

Although his space is still small and he cannot plan many things at the moment, it does not stop him from making big plans.

Sure enough, when Wang Dong heard that he could get a job, he said excitedly: "Brother, if you can get me a job, you will be my real brother in the future."

Cao Liang laughed and said, "Does that mean I'm not your brother anymore?"

"That must be it."

Wang Dong smiled and said, "No matter what, you will always be my best buddies in this life, brothers."

Gu Wen and Gangzi also laughed.

after awhile.

Wang Dong said: "Liangzi, you haven't forgotten what you promised me before, right?"

"What's the matter?"

Cao Liang pretended to be confused.

Wang Dong suddenly became anxious, "Hey, brother, don't joke with me like that. You promised me before you went back to your hometown that you would support me."

Gangzi said unhappily, "Dongzi, didn't Liangzi say that he would not fight with me anymore?"

"This is the last time. This won't happen again."

Wang Dong hurriedly explained.

After all, Cao Liang and Gangzi will have to help later, and he is just a weakling, not even as good as Gu Wen.

"Okay, remember, this is the last time."

Cao Liang looked at the sky and asked, "Dongzi, when is your appointment? Hurry up and finish it, and then go to Donglai to have a meal of mutton."

"Okay, it's about time to go there now. The location is the same as before."
