“Then I’ll trouble you, Aunt Wang...”
“You go ahead and get busy. I’ll need to trouble Aunt Wang tomorrow...”
After expressing his gratitude, Lin Fan didn’t stay any longer and turned to leave the office.
Watching Lin Fan’s departing figure, Director Wang opened his mouth to speak, but ultimately only let out a sigh.
“This kid is pitiful...”
“Forget it, if I can help this kid, I’ll do my best...”
After muttering to himself, Director Wang started to handle the matter of Lin Fan's relocation to the countryside.
Meanwhile, Lin Fan, having left the street office, made his way without any delay.
He first went to the grain station to buy some white flour, and then went to the vegetable market to buy half a pound of lean meat and an old hen.
About an hour later, Lin Fan slowly returned to the courtyard.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, the Third Uncle, who was polishing his "Flying Pigeon" bicycle at the gate, turned his gaze towards Lin Fan.
Especially when he saw the old hen and half a pound of lean meat in Lin Fan's hands, a gleam flashed in his eyes.
“Little Fan...”
As he spoke, the Third Uncle stood up and directly approached Lin Fan.
But to his surprise, before he could even make a move, Lin Fan snorted coldly and simply walked around him.
Lin Fan knew exactly what this "Old Yama" was up to.
One moment he was trying to take Lin Fan's house and job, and the next he wanted a free meal.
Where did this "Old Yama" even get his nerve from!
This courtyard truly lived up to its name "Fowl-Filled Courtyard"! Not only were these people thick-skinned, but their hearts were also black as pitch!
Ignoring the gazes of surprise and greed from everyone in the courtyard, Lin Fan returned to his dwelling and shut the door firmly behind him.
It didn’t take long before a pot of steamed white bread was ready.
As for the old hen and half a pound of lean meat, Lin Fan tossed them into his storage space and immediately sliced two pounds of meat from the giant beast.
The old hen and lean meat were merely a smokescreen.
His real target was the flesh of this giant beast!
And it really was, this giant beast looked like a local "Qing Niu" from this world, and its flesh was no different from the local beef.
Furthermore, the crystal-clear beef had no trace of blood, and it even made Lin Fan involuntarily swallow.
Without hesitation, Lin Fan started to prepare the meat.
Before long, a plate of pan-fried beef was ready.
Hesitating for a moment, Lin Fan picked up a slice of beef and put it in his mouth.
Lin Fan’s first impression was that it was very chewy, followed by an incredibly rich flavor that exploded on his taste buds.
Delicious, even beyond his expectations!
Lin Fan knew his own cooking skills, and considering the limitations of this era, the meat was so delicious purely because of its quality.
As Lin Fan swallowed the meat, the expression on his face changed dramatically.
A look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.
“This...this...this...”
For a moment, Lin Fan could only express his surprise.
He could clearly feel a warm current spreading from his stomach to his limbs and throughout his body.
A small piece of meat had the same effect as a powerful tonic.
After a few dozen breaths, the warm current gradually subsided, and Lin Fan's previously pale face became flushed with a hint of redness.
“Damn, damn, damn...”
Feeling the changes in his body, Lin Fan's words became incoherent.
Without any hesitation, Lin Fan began to devour the meat.
But after eating only half of it, Lin Fan felt a sense of fullness, and his whole body was warm.
Drip, drip, drip
Then Lin Fan felt a tickle in his nose, and blood began to drip uncontrollably.
He wiped the blood from his nose and couldn’t help but open his mouth to speak!
He overdid it!
The energy contained in just one pound of meat had caused Lin Fan to bleed from his nose, a sign of being overnourished.
After the initial panic, although the blood continued to flow, he felt incredibly comfortable throughout his body, without any other abnormalities.
More than ten minutes later, the bleeding from Lin Fan's nose finally stopped.
Another hour passed, and the warmth in Lin Fan's body finally dissipated.
At this moment, Lin Fan, who previously looked pale and malnourished, now had a rosy complexion, a feeling of well-being throughout his body, and seemingly inexhaustible strength.
“It’s really a beast from another world...”
“Just eating one pound of flesh is like consuming a potent tonic...”
As he spoke, Lin Fan's mind couldn't help but wander to his storage space.
This giant beast had thousands of pounds of flesh. Even if he ate one pound a day, it would be enough to last him two or three years!
