Carrying a Jurassic on me-Chapter 1273 - 627 The Problem with the Meat Processing Factory

"Yan Xiaofei, when we get back, take these photos home to develop and keep them until I return," Xu Xiaoyan said as she gazed out at the swiftly passing scenery from the returning car. "Pick some good ones to make a photo album, so when we’re too old to travel, we can take them out and look at them again. Isn’t that interesting!"

Yan Fei knew what his wife was thinking; developing photos was expensive in the Provincial City, but much cheaper back home. He nodded and said, "Sure, just be careful not to shake the film and expose it. Otherwise, everything will be gone."

Xu Xiaoyan quickly put away the film and then placed it beside him. "Remember this, don’t forget."

"I won’t forget!" Yan Fei casually spoke while he took out a piece of paper. "When we get to the tollbooth ahead, let’s show them this paper and see if it’s of any use!"

Yan Fei was truly doing good deeds without seeking recognition, giving something to others and still shamelessly asking for more benefits under the pretext of worrying about transportation convenience. Eventually, those men helplessly gave him the paper stamped with a big red seal.

Don’t underestimate this paper; it was arranged by people from the military transport unit. It stated that he was transporting special goods which entitled him to special treatment along the way.

Arriving at the toll station, he boldly presented the paper. After the toll collectors looked it over for a long time, they consulted with each other and finally waved him through—nothing became more effective those days than invoking the name of the military. Although his license plate was still that of a regular vehicle, the document with a big red stamp made it difficult for the toll collectors to question him.

Thanks to this document, the true colors of Boss Yan as a nouveau riche and miser were thoroughly exposed. But there was nothing he could do, as he was dealing with people who valued honor over life, ready to sacrifice themselves for the ’greater good.’ By comparison, his money-grubbing, scheming nouveau riche behavior was embarrassingly petty.

But Boss Yan didn’t care; everything was in order, and he could now use his instruments openly. Otherwise, when his laboratory opened, he would be stuck with a bunch of unaccountable Japanese instruments.

To be honest, his method wasn’t very clever, but as long as it worked for him, that was enough.

Now things were good. He had his money, had done a good deed, and could use his equipment openly—although they were still illicitly obtained, those in the know wouldn’t dare question it.

He hadn’t planned everything so thoroughly in advance, but now that it was all done, he began to think it was a great plan and couldn’t help feeling somewhat ingenious, like a Zhuge Liang without a single oversight.

In the back of the vehicle now, he had swapped out for some worthless broken equipment that served as a decoy while emptying out someone else’s lab; he hadn’t indiscriminately grabbed everything, hence nothing but junk.

As for the equipment deemed worthless, he still kept it in his "Dinosaur World"; worthless or not, it was his own. Even transporting such ordinary items pained him in such a beaten-up vehicle!

After driving a while, Yan Fei noticed his daughter’s curiosity but her restraint in not asking. After some thought, he decided there was nothing to hide and began to tell her about his deeds—albeit edited versions, as he certainly couldn’t scare his wife with the truth.

Xu Xiaoyan initially listened with great interest, but as she listened, she became frightened. "How did you get in touch with those people selling the instruments? What if they were desperate criminals? Couldn’t you just keep things safe and avoid such dangerous endeavors?"

Yan Fei really wanted to hand his wife a weapon and let her test it on him to know his capabilities. Nonetheless, he merely acted confidently and reassured Xu Xiaoyan, "Don’t worry, I’m very cautious. You know my skills; as long as I’m careful, everything will be fine. Look, isn’t everything fine now? I even made some money and turned a profit—how cost-effective!"

The girl smiled and playfully scolded, "Really, you’ll do anything for money, won’t you?"

As she spoke and looked at Yan Fei, her eyes twinkled with admiration—clearly, she was utterly in awe of him!

Meanwhile, Yan Fei, oblivious, continued discussing his plans. "Once we get back, we’ll set up these instruments in the laboratory, and our Sancha River Animal Research Lab can open. What should we start researching? Maybe mad cow disease. I hear it’s pretty serious, can infect livestock and even humans..."

At this point, mad cow disease wasn’t widely recognized since it hadn’t reached this part of the world yet; it was mostly discussed in news articles and online.

Xu Xiaoyan snapped out of her adoring daze and argued, "You might as well research how to fatten cattle or improve feed mixtures. Mad cow disease hasn’t spread here; you don’t even have a sample to study. Don’t think about researching that. Having no sample is a good thing. What if your research causes an outbreak and the cattle contract that disease?"
