Chapter 44
Free-Range Chicken

“This shop should do.” Kang Er Zheng had chosen a place suitable for a supermarket.

The shop was not far from Kang’s prosperous street.

It was right at the street entrance of Chang Rong Street next door.

It would take Kang’s family over twenty minutes to walk to the shop.

The entrance to the main road was right ahead.

The surrounding area was full of residential buildings, and a bakery was across the street.

There was a small convenience store not far away.

Kang Er Zheng wasn’t afraid of this small convenience store, because once the supermarket opened, the convenience store's competitiveness wouldn't be able to match the supermarket.

The supermarket would be a small one.

One hundred and sixty square meters.

There was still plenty of space in front, and some fruit could be sold there later.

Kang Er Zheng directly made the decision and rented the shop.

He directly bought the entire building.

The building had five floors.

Kang Er Zheng bought it directly.

A total of five floors.

The first floor was one hundred and sixty square meters, five floors made up eight hundred square meters.

The low price here was six thousand per square meter.

A total of four million eight hundred thousand.

It was still very cheap now. In a few years, this building would definitely be worth forty-eight million, or even more.

Because the location was excellent, it was on a street facing the main road, a six-lane main road, with a two-lane street leading to the street next to it.

There were residential buildings all around.

Further north, there was the Shangxia Jiu Commercial Street.

This place was simply a future hit.

“The first floor will be for A Guang and his wife to run the supermarket. What about the rest of the floors?” Kang Er Zheng thought about the building he had just acquired.

“Forget it, why am I even thinking about this? Just leave it to the company to handle.” Kang Er Zheng felt that there was no need for him to think so much.

He was the boss, why did he have to think about this? There were plenty of people to help him handle it.

Whether to rent it out or use it themselves, the company would send someone to investigate and then select the best option for Kang Er Zheng to decide.

Later, the company assessed it and decided that it was more suitable to rent it out.

The company itself didn't have any physical business, it mainly invested.

They rented out all four floors.

Kang Er Zheng didn't have any objections.

It would be a waste to just leave it empty.

Kang Er Zheng, holding the contract, went home.

As he reached the door, he encountered an ‘acquaintance.’

It was Kang Bo’s ‘lifelong enemy’ Liang Bo.

At this time, he was carrying two hens to visit Kang Bo.

“This scene seems familiar.” Kang Er Zheng felt a sense of familiarity.

Liang Bo also looked at Kang Er Zheng a few times.

He watched him push open the door next door and enter.

Liang Bo was puzzled.

“I remember this wasn’t A Yong’s house? Didn’t his son and grandson live abroad?” Liang Bo said strangely as he saw the young Kang Er Zheng.

Liang Bo knocked on Kang’s door.

Kang Er Zheng returned home, locked the contract in the safe, and then went next door to watch the show.

He walked directly into the house next door.

As soon as he entered, both Kang Bo and Liang Bo’s eyes focused on him.

“A Zheng is back.” Kang Bo said.

“Yeah, Big Brother, is this a guest?” Kang Er Zheng deliberately asked.

“Big Brother? Cai Shen Kang, who is this?” Liang Bo recognized Kang Er Zheng as the one who had just entered the house next door, and he also heard Kang Er Zheng calling Cai Shen Kang “Big Brother,” which made him even more puzzled.

“Cough cough.” Kang Bo was a little embarrassed. “This is my younger brother, Kang Er Zheng. A Zheng, this is my old friend, A Liang. He went to Qingyuan for a while and is now back in Yangcheng.”

“Cai Shen Kang, we’ve been neighbors for decades, when did you have a younger brother? How come I don’t know?” Liang Bo asked in surprise after hearing this.

“It’s like this, ¥%……*” Kang Bo had no choice but to tell him about A Zhuan and Kang Er Zheng.

“Oh, so it’s her.” Liang Bo nodded. He knew about Kang Er Zheng’s mother, A Zhuan, because he and Kang Bo had grown up together.

Back then, Kang Bo’s father married A Zhuan, the whole Chang Sheng Street knew about it, and it was spread all over the place, so he naturally knew.

“A promising young man.” Liang Bo praised.

“Liang Bo is also full of energy, even in his old age.” Kang Er Zheng replied with a smile.

“Old, old.” Liang Bo smiled and waved his hand.

“Alright, A Liang, have a seat. I’m going to boil some water and slaughter the chicken, stay for dinner tonight.” The old man got up and was about to grab the chicken. “This is authentic Qingyuan free-range chicken, you can tell just by looking at it, it’s delicious, white-cut is the best.”

“Wait a minute, Cai Shen Kang, don’t, I’ve been eating chicken all the time in Qingyuan, I’m already tired of it. We might as well go back to our restaurant for tea and dinner.” Liang Bo quickly stopped him.

He had been raising chickens for half a year in Qingyuan, eating them almost every day, now he was sick of them.

“Alright then, let’s go for afternoon tea.” Kang Bo said generously.

“Let’s go, A Zheng, come along.” Liang Bo invited.

“No, Liang Bo, the two of you can catch up. I have something else to do later.” Kang Er Zheng waved his hand. “I just finished eating.”

“A Liang, let’s just go. Come on.” Kang Bo saw that Kang Er Zheng didn’t want to go and didn’t force him, so he took Liang Bo away.

Kang Er Zheng looked at the two free-range chickens in the living room.

“No, Big Brother, aren’t you going to put the chickens in the courtyard?” Kang Er Zheng was speechless.

It wouldn’t be good if they pooped in the living room.

He picked up the chickens and walked into the courtyard, throwing them in and letting them fend for themselves. They would eventually end up as meat in their stomachs anyway.

“Where did the chickens come from?” The second wife came out of the room and asked.

“Oh, they were sent by Big Brother’s friend, Liang Bo. He said they were authentic free-range chickens.” Kang Er Zheng patted his hands. “He’s planning to eat them tonight.”

“Tonight?” The second wife looked at the two chickens hopping around and didn’t know what to think.

Wouldn’t she have to slaughter them?

“I’ll go back to the next door and rest for a while.” Kang Er Zheng didn’t pay attention to what A Chan was thinking, and he washed his hands and went to take a nap.

“Leave them to Xiang Lan and Xing Zi to kill.” The second wife smiled slyly, her eyes darting around.

When Xing Zi and Xiang Lan came back.

A Chan told them that there were two chickens at home and asked them to prepare them.

She was going out and wouldn’t eat at home, so she didn’t need them to cook for her.

Xing Zi and Xiang Lan didn’t think much of it.

The two of them worked busily, separating the two chickens.

They each made a dish from their hometown with the chicken.
