In a poor breeding environment, some feed and vegetable leaves were occasionally tossed in. For several consecutive days, Chen Xuan continuously tested the limits. He was frantically experimenting to see if Tian Yu's genes had been optimized.
Days passed, and instead of the lively Tian Yu he expected, it had grown a bit larger. It seemed to weigh around two to three pounds. This surprised Chen Xuan because, according to his observations, Tian Yu's growth rate should not have been this fast. From all indications, it appeared that Tian Yu had indeed been optimized!
What was even more interesting was that Tian Yu's belly gradually swelled; it was clearly a female Tian Yu. Seeing this, Chen Xuan no longer hesitated. He instructed Jin to dig a new pond at the entrance and carefully arranged it. Every day, he poured in fresh Holy Spirit Lake Water and placed the pregnant Tian Yu into this new pond.
Chen Xuan looked forward to the day of miracles. Before long, Tian Yu began to spawn a large number of fry with soft splashes. A bright red Tian Yu swam leisurely, trailing behind it something that looked like a red ribbon. Upon closer inspection, he realized that the so-called ribbon was actually a small school of tiny red fish.
Squatting by the edge of the pond, Chen Xuan watched as the fry grew rapidly and nodded in approval. At this rate, within less than a month—at most half a month—Tian Yu would reach the standard for cooking.
Chen Xuan patiently awaited the day when Tian Yu would grow larger. However, Old Village Chief could no longer wait. After half a month without any news from Chen Xuan, he began to worry that Chen Xuan might have fallen silent.
Several times, I pretended to appear casually at the entrance of the Farm, just to test Chen Xuan's response. Seeing the Old Village Chief so anxious, Chen Xuan could only shake his head and smile helplessly. He assured the Old Village Chief that he was already preparing the preliminary work and would contact him as soon as the timing was right.
Hearing this, the Old Village Chief nodded in satisfaction and slowly returned to Chen Family Village.
Another day passed, and the Tian Yu in the pond had finally grown. At this moment, the large pond was filled with plump, bright red Tian Yu. Chen Xuan couldn't help but salivate at the sight. He decided to try the deliciousness of Tian Yu today. If everything went well, he would officially start the breeding work for Tian Yu.
He caught two Tian Yu, heated oil in a pan, and removed their scales and entrails. With a splash, one Tian Yu was dropped into the pot. Skillfully flipping it over, he sprinkled in some seasonings. In no time, a fragrant Tian Yu was ready!
Chen Xuan picked up his chopsticks and took a piece. A shiver ran through him, and a satisfied smile spread across his face. The taste of Tian Yu was exquisite! The meat was incredibly tender, more delicious than any Tian Yu he had eaten before! The flavor was endless!
Unable to resist, Chen Xuan devoured nearly half of a Tian Yu before he reluctantly put down his chopsticks. What a feast! Chen Xuan sighed contentedly.
Meanwhile, Jin Ye Xiao and others were already impatiently waiting. They had been curious about the Tian Yu that Chen Xuan had painstakingly raised. Now that they finally reached this moment of tasting it, they could hardly contain themselves. They eagerly grabbed their chopsticks and began to eat together.
Mmm... The meat of Tian Yu was incredibly tender!
As soon as he took a bite, a look of enjoyment spread across his face. The fish was so delicious that it was on par with the taste of the Silver Fish. It was Tian Yu. Once cultivated, they could eat as much as they wanted every day!
Thinking of this, Jin He and Ye Xiao exchanged glances and shared a low chuckle. The flavor of Tian Yu had already gained Chen Xuan's approval, and the conditions for farming had improved significantly. It was no exaggeration to say that Chen Xuan's long-cherished dream of optimizing the Tian Yu gene had finally been realized!
Looking down at the leisurely swimming Tian Yu in the pond, Chen Xuan couldn't wait to expand the scale of their farming operation. With that thought in mind, he immediately set off for the Old Village Chief's house.
Passing by his own home, Chen Xuan unexpectedly spotted his father, Chen Dahai, whom he hadn't seen in a long time. Chen Dahai had been working in Jianghe City, and it had been quite a while since Chen Xuan last laid eyes on him. To his surprise, Chen Dahai looked vibrant and healthy, his complexion rosy—clearly, life had been treating him well lately.
Upon seeing Chen Xuan, Chen Dahai cleared his throat and smiled, "Son, there's something I'd like to discuss with you."
"Actually, I have something to tell you too, but let me finish what I'm doing first," Chen Xuan replied, gesturing towards the direction of the Old Village Chief's house.
Chen Dahai readily agreed. With that, Chen Xuan turned to leave.
On the way, Chen Xuan began to contemplate what he needed to do next. The Rice Field Fish Farming initiative was about to be launched in Chen Family Village, and he would need a capable person to assist him—someone who could act as his representative and lead the villagers toward prosperity. After all, he wouldn't have the time to manage everything himself.
He thought for a long time but couldn't find a suitable candidate at the moment.
It was only just now that I suddenly thought of Chen Dahai, which finally led me to make my decision. Clearly, Chen Dahai, who worked in Jianghe City, was a very suitable candidate. As a father, he would undoubtedly treat the matter entrusted by Chen Xuan with great care. With this thought in mind, a smile unconsciously crept onto Chen Xuan's lips.
Soon, they arrived at the Old Village Chief's home. Upon seeing Chen Xuan, the Old Village Chief, who was having lunch, sprang up excitedly and looked at Chen Xuan with eager eyes.
"Xiao Chen, do you have a suitable project?" the Old Village Chief asked with anticipation.
Chen Xuan nodded and smiled, "Old Village Chief, I have thought of a project suitable for Chen Family Village and have already made some preparations."
"Really? Where is it? Take me to see!" The Old Village Chief could hardly contain his excitement.
"Follow me," Chen Xuan said as he turned to lead the Old Village Chief toward Qing Xuan Farm.
The two quickly arrived at Qing Xuan Farm. In front of the small courtyard, the Old Village Chief saw a pond filled with lively Tian Yu. He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Xiao Chen, I didn't expect you to buy so many Tian Yu! Are you planning to give them away?"
Chen Xuan smiled mysteriously and replied, "No, Old Village Chief, these are what I’m raising!"
"You’re raising them?" The Old Village Chief was taken aback. He looked down at the lively and vibrant Tian Yu in the pond and found it hard to believe that they were raised by Chen Xuan. Raising Tian Yu was indeed a very challenging endeavor; after all, Chen Family Village had tried it before without success.
