Shen Wei heard the cold, mechanical voice of the system.
"Congratulations to Shen Wei for successfully completing the main quest. The plot element has been altered by 15% and has broken free from the original book's control."
Shen Wei had already completed 50% before.
Now, with this additional 15%, she had altered 65% in total.
What excited Shen Wei the most was the system's phrase: "broken free from the original book's control."
She felt genuinely relieved from the bottom of her heart.
This time, the system reward was different from before.
Two options appeared: either 100 piglets or 10 million yuan.
Shen Wei wasn't short on money at the moment.
She had recently participated in a variety show.
The compensation alone brought in over 20 million yuan, and with all of Shen Wei's businesses making money, she wasn't lacking in funds.
Of course, she chose the 100 piglets.
But this time, she wouldn't be as reckless as the last time.
When the squealing piglets suddenly appeared in her office.
Her heart had nearly jumped out of her chest, but now, after the system's training,
She could maintain her composure, not showing any emotions on her face.
Shen Wei immediately went to rent a truck for transporting pigs. She had the driver take it to a designated location.
In the warehouse, she released the 100 piglets.
She and the driver began catching the pigs and loading them into cages, then drove majestically to the pig farm.
When Shen Wei arrived with the pigs, she saw the couple who ran the farm rushing over excitedly: "You've caught so many again this time?"
They had never seen such good pigs before.
Eating seven or eight times a day, they grew plump quickly, and they rarely got sick.
The pigs seemed to inflate like balloons, changing visibly day by day.
They were truly lovable.
The pigs brought over last time had already gained several dozen kilograms.
The piglets grunted and called out when they saw people.
They looked lively, and it was clear they were the same kind of good pigs.
However, it was too much work for just two people.
With so many pigs, they had to cook pig feed daily, clean the pig pens, and couldn't keep up with the work.
Shen Wei said, "Later, you should hire two more workers, paying 5,000 yuan a month."
The couple was immediately delighted upon hearing this.
Everyone has a few relatives.
Earning 5,000 yuan here was quite good.
Moreover, Shen Wei entrusted everything to them, not interfering at all.
Having such a boss was truly fortunate.
"I'll definitely find someone very reliable!" After discussing, the couple decided to invite the wife's elder sister and her husband to come work together.
These two were honest and straightforward people.
They were especially hardworking.
Previously, one of them worked at a construction site, while the other cooked at the site.
Construction sites often withheld wages, and there were always issues with getting paid at the end of the year.
Coming here would certainly be much better than going to a construction site.
Shen Wei couldn't help but look at the three large pigs she had sent the first time.
The biggest one was already nearly 500 pounds.
Apparently, it could still grow more. The other two were a bit smaller, around 400 pounds each, with round, plump bodies that were a pleasure to see.
The pig-farming couple said, "Some people from the slaughterhouse came to look at the pigs earlier, and they were interested in buying them right away!"
They offered 12 yuan per pound for live pigs, which was quite reasonable.
Because the pig's blood and internal organs all count towards the weight.
When buying other pigs, they usually only offer six or seven yuan per pound.
This time they were so generous because they truly thought the pigs were excellent.
Having handled many pigs at their slaughterhouse, they knew at a glance that these were premium pigs. When they heard the pigs were fed purely on grain, they became even more enthusiastic.
Shen Wei had come.
If she hadn't, the farm was planning to ask Shen Wei if she was interested in selling.
This time they really liked the pigs, but Shen Wei said no.
She wanted to keep raising these pigs slowly.
She still wanted to taste what the system called "premium pork."
The more she looked, the more she craved it. So she made a bold decision. She planned to slaughter the largest pig and take it back home to eat.
The pig farm had connections with pig butchers.
They quickly invited two men over.
These butchers were efficient, killing the pig in no time.
They also cleaned it, making it very tidy.
In the end, the butchers looked at the pork with wide eyes, saying they didn't want money, just a set of pig offal and half a basin of pig blood would do.
The butchers' eyes were gleaming as they looked at the pig.
In all their years of butchering, they had never seen such a good pig.
When cut open, it had three-inch thick layers of fat, snow-white in color.
They heard that all the pigs here were fed purely on grain.
Not a bit of commercial feed was mixed in.
Usually, only pigs raised for personal consumption would be fed this way.
Free-range pork now sells for over 30 yuan per pound in the market, approaching the price of beef.
Pig offal and other parts that people used to dislike have now become delicacies.
Shen Wei agreed.
The butchers happily took their share.
The blood and such were inconvenient to take, so it was left at the pig farm, and they also cut a large piece of good meat for the farm couple to take home and stew.
The rest was divided into two halves, one sent to Starry Sky Kindergarten.
The other was sent to the pop-up store.
Shen Wei had almost become a master at balancing things.
She specifically instructed that this was free-range pork she had raised herself.
Shen Wei had just returned to Starry Sky Kindergarten when she saw Liu Chef waiting for her.
Chef Chen was with him as well.
Shen Wei asked, "What's the matter?"
Liu Chef was somewhat excited: "Is that pig really raised by us?"
With his years of experience, he could tell at a glance that this was top-quality pork.
Shen Wei said, "Yes, I started a pig farm a while back, but I've been so busy I forgot to mention it."
Liu Chef, sharp-eyed, asked: "What about the pig offal?"
Shen Wei said, "I gave a whole set of pig offal to the butchers!"
Liu Chef slapped his thigh: "Those people really know their stuff!"
Then he asked Shen Wei how many pigs she had.
His eyes were shining brightly.
Chef Chen said from the side: "What difference does it make how many there are?"
Earlier, when they were dealing with the vegetable garden, they discovered that Liu Chef was too vain.
All for a few words of praise.
Some vegetables were given away, some were sold, and now there were comments under the official account asking for Starry Sky Kindergarten's vegetables.
Now that they had pork, what did he want to do?
Liu Chef's intentions were guessed, so he didn't dare to say.
"I was just asking casually!"
Upon learning that there were 202 such pigs,
And that these pigs could grow to 800 pounds in a year, he was truly excited.
That evening, they made braised pork.
Liu Chef used all his skills.
The pork was already particularly fragrant, without any strange smell. Even the fat wasn't greasy when eaten, and it was especially satisfying.
Braised pork had never been popular at Starry Sky Kindergarten before.
They had tried various ways of cooking it. People's tastes had become picky.
But this time, the braised pork was the first dish to be finished.
Even the sauce was used to mix with rice. Everyone ate with gusto, exclaiming how delicious it was.
Every household knows how to make braised pork. But how did Starry Sky Kindergarten make it?
It was so fragrant that they almost bit their tongues off.
There was even a hint of sweetness, and when mixed with rice, even the gods wouldn't trade it for anything else.
Doctor Lu ate three large bowls, and finally said, patting his belly, "I really need to hold onto the wall to walk now."
Others praised Liu Chef to the skies.
Liu Chef said, "It's just that the pig is good." No one believed him, thinking he was being too modest.
The next day, everyone strongly requested to eat braised pork again.
Liu Chef cooked it again.
This time, the pork was bought from the market.
When they tasted it, it wasn't as fragrant as yesterday's.
When asked, it really was because the pork was different.
"What kind of pig is it? Where did it come from?" everyone asked.
Liu Chef said proudly, "We have our own pig farm. Yesterday was just a taste test. The big pigs taste even better!"
He also said he would make stir-fried pork intestines, fried liver tips, braised pig's trotters, and three ways of cooking pig's head, among other dishes.
He successfully made everyone at Starry Sky Kindergarten drool with anticipation.
