Chapter Seven, Where is the Rainbow

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

However, the little girl remained very dejected

Wang Anshi frowned and said: "One must have a purpose in doing things. If you have no purpose, yet confine the chicken, restricting its freedom to eat insects, do you think that makes sense?"

Then, the species with strong wildness were suddenly confined, and many of them would not adapt, leading to fights among themselves and resulting in numerous deaths. This is an extreme reaction, much like the radical reforms that will occur when the Prime Minister's father comes to power, which the officials will find unacceptable

With Grandma gone, the accountant Geng Tianji and the steward Xu Langshan were even less inclined to get involved in the murky waters

"Return to grandfather, there is no source." Wang Lang said, spreading his hands

Wang Wang said: "Speak less and do more. Continue to feed the chickens according to the frequency and quantity I instructed. Additionally, today, reduce their activity area by one circle, and tomorrow, reduce it by another circle. Take it slow, gradually boil the frog in warm water. The ultimate goal is to confine them in the chicken coop and limit their activity level"

In this way, by observing and eliminating, after several generations, these wild chickens will transform into production chickens, which is the essence of species evolution

Wang Xiaoya shook her head while biting her finger

Is there really such a legendary divine chicken? Wang Xiaoya said excitedly

Her mother, the Zheng family, was very distressed and came early in the morning to comfort Er Ya, inquiring about the reason for her sadness

However, that was easy to handle. At that time, I simply caught the most mischievous rooster and cooked it into chicken soup for my mother to nourish her complexion. Thus, the Wang family's flock of chickens was basically stabilized

Things with a strong wild nature are always active, running back and forth, even in the absence of insects they continue to run. This is beneficial for the body but detrimental to the accumulation of nutrients

Some of it is a secret recipe that an old man told me in a dream. I thought you were aware of this matter said Wang Fang

Over here, YY is busy, while the little loli has completed the first remarkable feat of the chicken coop, and then she ran over, drenched in sweat, and said: "These chickens will lay eggs tomorrow, right?"

In this way, no one would want to concern themselves with Wang Fang's affairs. At most, they would wait until all the chickens were exhausted, and then when Old Wang returned, he would give him a beating, and that would be the end of it. It is said that although Wang Anshi was not wealthy, he could still afford to lose this little bit.

"I am not a chicken, how would I know?" Wang Lang said, shrugging his shoulders

"You cannot say that, this time my son is going to criticize you," Wang Fang said with a chuckle

After Wang Lang got up, he found that they were all avoiding me, Da Lang. Hmph, it seems I have been underestimated.

Wang Wang chuckled and said, "Is it really that easy for you to see a rainbow? If it were that simple, how could I demonstrate my brilliance and prowess?"

Which hen is reluctant to lay eggs? Which hen is leading the way? Wang Xiaoya turned her head to look at the flock of chickens and began to search.

Wang Wang said: "Then that is correct. Why do you expect me to be a deity, forcing the hens to lay eggs when they do not wish to?"

The little girl fainted, feeling that this answer sounded too shocking coming from the seemingly wise mouth of the big fish

Wang Anshi, stroking his beard with a hint of helplessness, patiently nodded and said: "As your father, I will listen to you. If you can explain the reasons clearly, I will not interfere, and it would be fine for you to take care of the chickens. However, if you cannot articulate it clearly, it will be considered disrespectful to your father, and you shall face appropriate consequences."

Upon hearing that the number of eggs might increase, Zheng was quite saddened. He gently patted the little girl's head and said, "The young master is always full of ideas and thoughts. Although he occasionally does astonishing things, he is still just a child. There is no such thing as an easy gain in this world. If it were that simple, our great Song dynasty, with so many capable officials, would have already filled the homes of the common people with eggs. Er Ya, these words should not be taken seriously. However, since the young master wishes to play and is willing to take you along, just accompany him in his play." There is no such thing as an easy gain in this world. If it were that simple, our great Song dynasty, with so many capable officials, would have already filled the homes of the common people with eggs. Er Ya, these words should not be taken seriously. However, since the young master wishes to play and is willing to take you along, just accompany him in his play.

"Not a single one wants to come down, it depends on the mood, hehe, this is how our Song Dynasty's chickens behave," Wang Lang said

With the support of the dream entering the divine machine, you should quickly incite them to lay eggs. Otherwise, you will have no eggs to eat today said the little girl

"But what about the rainbow after all this talking?" The little girl continued to look with tearful eyes.

Of course, there will still be a small group that jumps around, and when they get agitated, they go looking for other chickens to fight, inciting the others to cause trouble

These little chicks, as long as they are fed with the feed they love, can be gradually guided. Today, reduce their activity range by one circle, and tomorrow, reduce it by another circle. After about ten days to half a month, once they have developed the habit of being "happy to eat without having to search for insects," they will adapt and become content staying in the coop.

However, it is possible, but a forced melon is not sweet; things obtained through deception are not genuine. For example, if our father were to govern in the future, it would be a forced situation; if he does not force it, it would be uncomfortable. The more he forces, the more people will resist. Wang Fang said with some implication, "However, I am different; I like leaders, I like to inspire, and I want them to willingly lay eggs."

Thus, Wang Anshi lost interest, turned around and left. After paying his respects to his mother, he hurried out to attend to his work. Where would he find the time to linger around with a group of chickens that were not laying eggs properly? Old Wang had feelings for that donkey... It was his wife, Xiao Bao's mother, who had brought Old Wang to the capital to take the imperial examination back in the day. As for the chickens, he felt absolutely nothing.

"The big fish deceived me." She looked tearful.

Wang Lang said: "Allowing the chickens to move is intended to reduce labor and feed costs, enabling them to find insects on their own. However, this is limited to three chickens. We have many chickens in our yard; where would enough insects come from? They cannot be let out. Thus, their freedom loses its significance, as it only increases the difficulty for Er Ya in feeding them, and the exercise will also significantly deplete the nutrients within the chickens. What my son is doing is, of course, a way to recover that lost energy."

Wang Wang crouched down, pulled her over, and gave her a fierce kiss before letting go and saying: "In the past, did you have eggs every day?"

It is a calamity; Young Master Wang has changed after being kicked in the head by a donkey. However, even if it wastes food, he must be allowed to act willfully. After all, where can one find a mischievous child who does not cause trouble

The chickens of the Song Dynasty were very primitive and had not undergone systematic evolution. They can be considered semi-wild.

Er Ya hopped over and tugged at Wang Lang's pant leg, saying: "Da Lang, I haven't seen any eggs come out."

Darwin, with an IQ of 300, explained this phenomenon as evolution. The implication is that the most aggressive chicken, possessing this gene, was removed from the flock, and thus the "disruptive gene" in the other chickens would gradually weaken.

I am merely a martial artist and do not understand much, however, I am extremely fond of the current young master said Lao Liao

It is indeed Anshi's father who has returned from a business trip

The old lady covered her face and fled as she passed by. Since she had come, she had to confront this issue, which could only mean that Wang Fang was at fault for wasting rice and creating some useless items. However, the old lady stubbornly believed that Wang Fang was a genius, even more outstanding than Wang Anshi in his youth, and could not possibly be wrong

"Is it possible to trick them into laying eggs just like you tricked me?" the little girl asked curiously

This evening, I fed the chickens, and the little girl in a melon-shaped hat stood guard by the chicken coop, waiting for them to lay a batch of eggs. However, by dawn, those chickens, carefree and oblivious, had not laid any eggs.

"Is there any source for doing this?" At this moment, a gentle voice came from behind.

Wang Anshi found his statement quite novel, and after pondering for a moment, he turned to Lao Liao and asked, "Do you think what he said makes sense?"
