586: Satan among bulls

After a few polite greetings, Ye Su stated the purpose of his visit:

"I came here this time for two reasons. First, I'm planning to open about a dozen more Hot Pot Restaurants and Barbecue Restaurants, so our future meat consumption will increase significantly; I wanted to let Boss Wang know. Second, that cow has been raised here for so long, I wanted to come and see how it's doing."

"Boss Ye, don't you worry about that. I've treated that cow just like the beef cattle in the farm, feeding it exactly what it should eat. It's perfectly healthy right now. Why don't we head over and take a look while the boss hasn't arrived yet?"

"Alright."

"This way, please."

Led by Yang Peng, Ye Su arrived at the cowshed and immediately identified the glossy-coated beast as the Old Yellow Cow that had already developed a "Hidden Attribute."

"Boss Ye, look."

Yang Peng was, after all, an expert who had raised cattle for half his life. Even without the system's glowing guidance, he could recognize Ye Su's Old Yellow Cow at a glance.

"That one there is your cow. It's healthy and in perfect condition."

"Good. Having it boarded at your cattle farm, I can rest easy."

Ye Su responded perfunctorily while secretly opening the system.

【System detected Host is near 'Intelligence Target - Old Yellow Cow'. Would you like to spend 99 yuan to activate the Old Yellow Cow's 'Hidden Attribute'?】

"I don't even have to avoid people; that saves a lot of trouble." Ye Su immediately replied to the system:

"Confirm activation of the Old Yellow Cow's 'Hidden Attribute'!"

【Ding!】

【Congratulations Host! Successfully activated 'Intelligence Target - Old Yellow Cow's' 'Hidden Attribute'. Obtained 'Delicious and Tender Meat' Halo!】

【Delicious and Tender Meat Halo Description: After activating the 'Delicious and Tender Meat' halo, you only need to keep the Old Yellow Cow in the cattle farm to subtly improve the quality of all beef cattle within the farm, making their meat more delicious!】

【Note 1: The 'Delicious and Tender Meat' halo is attached to the 'Intelligence Target - Old Yellow Cow'. If the Old Yellow Cow produces offspring, the offspring will also carry the 'Delicious and Tender Meat' halo!】

【Note 2: If there are multiple 'Delicious and Tender Meat' halos in the same cattle farm, the effect of each additional halo is only half that of the previous one!】

【(Example: One 'Delicious and Tender Meat' halo has an effect of 100. With two, the effect is 150. With three, the effect is 175, and so on. Please be advised, Host!)】

"Holy cow, it can improve the meat quality of the beef cattle in the farm? Isn't this like a Living Yama among cattle, a 'Satan of Cattle' specifically designed to send its own kind to the dinner table?"

Regarding this "utterly inhumane" Hidden Attribute, Ye Su only had one thing to say:

Please, by all means, ramp up the intensity!

First, he had the Secret shacha sauce and Secret Barbecue Sauce, then the "welcoming guest golden toad" that could bring in foot traffic, followed by the system's help in selecting the most suitable feng shui locations for the catering industry.

And now, he had the "Delicious and Tender Meat" halo that could improve the quality of beef.

Ye Su racked his brains but couldn't imagine how he could possibly lose this game.

"The 'Delicious and Tender Meat' halo can be inherited. It seems that in the future, I'll not only have to provide for this yellow cow's retirement but also help it breed, so it has sons, and those sons have grandsons, and the lineage continues infinitely!"

"However, the priority right now is still to get my own cattle farm so that the effect of the 'Delicious and Tender Meat' halo works on my own cattle. Otherwise, I'd just be doing a favor for the owner of Qian Nong Cattle Farm."

At this thought, Ye Su began to size up Qian Nong Cattle Farm.

"This cattle farm can probably hold over two hundred beef cattle. Assuming one cow weighs five hundred kilograms and the net meat yield is 40%, that's two hundred kilograms of meat."

"A store the size of Joyful Gathering consumes several hundred catties of beef a day during holidays, which is close to the meat yield of one cow."

"With the subsequent twelve stores, the daily consumption alone would be around eight cattle. On holidays, we might end up slaughtering ten cattle a day."

"This rate of consumption can completely support Qian Nong Cattle Farm."

"If I buy Qian Nong Cattle Farm, I can bring in three batches of a hundred cattle each month. The new cattle will be raised in the farm first, letting the 'Delicious and Tender Meat' halo subtly improve their meat quality."

"The cattle that have already been raised for a while can be slaughtered and transported to the various stores."

"This way, not only can I maximize the value of the 'Delicious and Tender Meat' halo, but I can also ensure that once Ye Family Catering grows larger, our meat source won't be controlled by other cattle farms."

"When I open stores in other cities later, I can take the calves born from the breeding there and buy another cattle farm of a similar scale based on the number of stores."

After a bit of thought, Ye Su decided that when the owner, Wang Anjie, arrived, he would discuss buying the cattle farm with him.

He just didn't know if Wang Anjie would be willing to take a few million and retire, transferring the farm to him.

"Boss Ye."

After activating the yellow cow's "Hidden Attribute," Ye Su took another look around Qian Nong Cattle Farm when he heard a middle-aged man's voice from nearby.

Turning his head, he saw it was indeed the farm's owner, Wang Anjie.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Stepping forward to shake hands with Wang Anjie, Ye Su replied with a smile:

"Not at all. I should be the one apologizing for disturbing Boss Wang again."

Ye Su was becoming more and more fluent in these polite formalities.

"Haha," Wang Anjie laughed heartily. "What are you saying? Having an honored guest visit is something I look forward to; how could I find it a disturbance?"

"You're too kind."

"I just heard from Yang Peng that Boss Ye is planning to open a dozen more chain stores. It seems the new store's opening at the beginning of the month was truly a booming success."

"It was alright. It's thanks to the good quality of the beef from Boss Wang's farm that my Hot Pot Restaurant was able to build up..."

After a few more pleasantries, Wang Anjie was the first to get to the point:

"Boss Ye is planning to expand. I wonder how much more meat you're planning to order from me daily?"

"It's like this," Ye Su said, not beating around the bush. "I actually came this time because I want to take over Qian Nong Cattle Farm. In the future, the beef will only be supplied to me. I just don't know if Boss Wang is willing to transfer the farm to me?"

"You want to take over my cattle farm!"

Wang Anjie never expected that Ye Su's purpose for coming this time was actually to buy his entire farm.

Last time he came to buy one cow; this time he was even more aggressive, wanting to buy a whole farm right off the bat.

Is this how young people shop nowadays?!

"Yes."

To save trouble and acquire a cattle farm as quickly as possible, Ye Su directly deployed his 'money power':

"If Boss Wang is willing to transfer the farm to me, as for the price, I can pay the full amount in cash according to the market rate.

The workers at the farm can also continue to work here. You won't need to pay them any additional severance pay. What do you think?"

"Full payment in cash!"

Wang Anjie was once again overwhelmed by Ye Su's extravagant and bold style.
