"Let's talk about the watermelon later; first, try my eggs."
Chen Xuan's lips curled into a smile. He almost forgot about Chen Dayong. This uncle, who had a good relationship with his father, had been visiting Chen Xuan's farm frequently ever since he discovered the sweetness of the watermelons. Like Wang Xiong, he was always looking forward to Chen Xuan's new products. Unfortunately, Chen Xuan disappointed him by raising chickens instead.
"How much can you earn selling chickens? Who needs eggs? I hate eating eggs!" Chen Dayong grumbled as he picked up an egg.
Huh?
Chen Dayong raised an eyebrow, surprised to find that the egg in his hand was not the usual brown but a very peculiar silver!
A Silver Egg?
Could this be a genetically mutated egg?
Chen Dayong's face twisted in conflict. He had recently read some urban fiction that told a story about someone who ate genetically mutated food and grew a pair of wings on their back, only to be captured by the military for secret experiments. The ending was said to be quite tragic. The urban fiction was written convincingly, and Chen Dayong believed it wholeheartedly.
Looking at the Silver Egg in his hand, Chen Dayong felt a twitch at the corner of his eye. He really didn't want to eat this egg, but Chen Xuan was watching him intently, clearly eager for him to take a bite.
Thinking about his cooperative relationship with Chen Xuan, Chen Dayong gritted his teeth and decided to go along with it!
With a sense of tragic determination, he cracked open the egg and peeled away the shell, all the while secretly pondering which son he should give a little more of his hard-earned fortune to.
Lost in thought, Chen Dayong absentmindedly brought the egg to his mouth.
Mmm...
His bewildered gaze suddenly brightened as he stared wide-eyed at Chen Xuan in disbelief.
The look in his eyes clearly expressed one thing: Wow! This is so delicious?
Chen Xuan nodded.
Chen Dayong fell silent, lowering his head as he quickly chewed the egg in his mouth. One after another, he devoured four eggs in no time.
Looking at the pile of eggshells on the table, Chen Dayong was momentarily stunned. Did I eat all of this? Am I not the one who hates eating eggs the most?
He stared blankly at the eggshells for a while. Then he sighed, "These eggs are really delicious."
Chen Xuan smiled, not at all surprised by Chen Dayong's reaction. No one could resist such tasty eggs!
"How about it? My eggs aren't bad, right?" Chen Xuan asked.
Not just good; they were simply amazing! Chen Dayong became excited and exclaimed, "Xiao Xuan, how many of these eggs do you have? I want them all!"
Chen Xuan thought about the number of eggs in the Chicken Coop and replied, "I can provide about a thousand right now."
A thousand?
Chen Dayong's eyes lit up. He pulled out his phone and quickly calculated, "Xiao Xuan, the market price for Native Chicken Eggs is around eleven per pound right now, and in some places, it's even a dollar per egg. But since our eggs are so delicious, we definitely can't sell them that cheap. How about this: you give me all the eggs, and I'll buy them from you at three dollars each. What do you think?"
After speaking, Chen Dayong nervously looked at Chen Xuan.
Three dollars per egg?
Chen Xuan chuckled, patting Chen Dayong on the shoulder. "Uncle, these eggs are ones I've carefully cultivated. Although they haven't been tested for nutrients yet, I believe that the nutritional value of these Native Chicken Eggs is definitely much higher than that of regular ones! Three dollars each simply doesn't do justice to their value. Let's think bigger; how about a dollar each? I can wholesale some to you to try out first."
What about a dollar each?
