Chapter 509

Unless you get hundreds of people, standing one every short distance.

The question is, is it realistic?

"Old Han, go kill a few chickens, I'm not going back tonight, let's have a bonfire dinner and eat roast chicken!"

"Shazhu, do you know how to make roast chicken?"

Wan Ping'an asked Shazhu.

Shazhu hadn't been home for a while.

"I can, of course I can!"

"It's just that the seasonings aren't complete, so the taste won't be too good."

A clever woman can't cook without rice.

Without enough seasonings, it won't work either.

Night fell.

The bonfire was lit.

Shazhu put the processed meat chickens on skewers and roasted them over the fire until they were sizzling with oil.

"Owl Number One, the moment to perform has arrived, set off!"

Wan Ping'an ordered.

Owl Number One flew away.

Owl Number Two had an injured leg and couldn't hunt for the time being.

Owl Number Three and Number Four were still cubs, their feathers had just grown, and they couldn't even fly, let alone expect the two little ones to hunt.

The owl flew away.

Shazhu roasted a chicken, tore it open, and distributed it to everyone.

Including Wan Ping'an, there were eleven people in total.

The crops produced by the six-acre plot were increasing and becoming more important; night shifts, with only Cai Quanwu alone, were simply not enough.

In addition.

There were also people sent by the higher-ups.

They were elites, had strict discipline, and usually didn't have much contact with Wan Ping'an and the others.

"So fragrant, worthy of being a descendant of a chef!"

Han Dahe gave a thumbs up.

He looked down on Shazhu, but he had to give a thumbs up to Shazhu's culinary skills!

Strictly speaking, Shazhu hadn't finished his apprenticeship yet.

But his family's culinary skills, influenced since childhood, already had a certain foundation; even if he hadn't finished his apprenticeship, it was only limited to some old rules.

It didn't mean his culinary skills were bad!

Caw!

The owl returned.

Slap!

It dropped a fat field mouse it had just bitten to death.

"So fast?"

Cai Quanwu was shocked.

Owl Number One had been gone for less than five minutes and already caught one, and that's including the time on the road; the efficiency was too high, right?

Caw!

Owl Number One called out proudly.

Catching field mice, it was an expert!

Wan Ping'an nodded.

Owl Number One threw the field mouse in front of Owl Number Two.

Owl Number Two tore the field mouse to pieces; the prey was too big, and Number Three and Number Four were too small to eat it!

Owl Number One went to catch field mice again.

In less than an hour, it brought back more than thirty field mice; sometimes when it returned, it had one in its mouth and one in each claw.

It could bring back three at a time!

"I'm convinced; when the other owl gets better, and the two little ones grow up, the six-acre plot will guarantee that field mice will die one by one!"

Cai Quanwu was convinced.

The owl was indeed the nemesis of field mice, catching them at night, one catch at a time.

Boom!

Just as everyone was eating roast chicken and talking happily.

There was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Beside Cai Quanwu, a rabbit fell, half-dead, with only one breath left.

Caw!

The owl landed.

"It can even catch rabbits?"

Cai Quanwu was startled.

Such a rabbit, so fat, at least five or six pounds, right?

Much bigger than a field mouse!

"An adult owl can weigh more than twenty pounds, and rabbits are also on the owl's menu; it even dares to fight wild dogs and wolves!"

Wan Ping'an added.

Owls are not vegetarians.

They are raptors!

They are one of the largest raptors.

They have few opponents in the air.

Even a Gyrfalcon, at night, is no match for an owl.

During the day, it's the other way around!

Actually.

Wan Ping'an concealed a very important point.

Owl Number One was so powerful, a large part of the reason was that the Spirit Beast Talisman made it smarter, making it more flexible when hunting.

Otherwise.

The efficiency wouldn't be so high!

Soon.

The roast chicken was finished.

Those who had work went to work.

By the bonfire, only Han Dahe, Shazhu, and Wan Ping'an remained.

"Ping'an, I discovered a problem at Hulu Lake; there are some water birds that might prey on the fish you're raising."

"Originally, there weren't many water birds at Hulu Lake, and even if they ate, they couldn't eat much."

"Since you started raising fish, the water quality of Hulu Lake has improved, and the water plants have become lush, so there are more and more water birds; you'd better think of a way!"

Han Dahe liked to fish when he had nothing to do, and having spent a long time by Hulu Lake, he could discover the changes better.

Wan Ping'an nodded.

He really hadn't noticed before.

He wasn't surprised at all that there were more and more water birds at Hulu Lake.

In order to raise fish, he improved the environment of Hulu Lake.

The environment was good.

The fish could grow faster.

Naturally, water birds liked it more; once they came, unless they were migratory birds that had to migrate when the season came, they wouldn't leave again.

"Is the situation serious now?"

Wan Ping'an asked.
