    Although the fire was ferocious, but thanks to the continuous cold rain and the timely response of the fire brigade to put out the fire, the fire was quickly brought under control and did not spread to other alleys.

    The cause of the fire was quickly investigated. It turned out that Aunt Li¡¯s family used homemade oil lamps to keep the quail warm in order not to freeze the quail to death and to spend more money on electric hatching.  It was windy at night, and as soon as the oil lamp fell down, the fire followed.

    Dong Fang keenly observed that the quail farming industry in the entire Jin County has been overheated.  From government agencies to factory farms, wherever there are people, there are discussions about how to raise quail to make money.  More and more people are pouring into this industry, and with it comes potential risks.  The risk is like the fire at Aunt Li's house, which can burn all the quail and everything overnight.

    Large-scale farming has resulted in overproduction of quail and quail eggs.  Jin County has not yet been opened to trains, and the transportation to the outside depends entirely on rickshaws, buses, and trucks.  With very limited traffic, some of the quail and quail eggs would be unsalable and stay within Jin County.

    In this way, losses are inevitable.  Especially for those farmers who have invested all their wealth in the industry, or even abandoned their cultivated land, they can't afford to lose money.

    When Aunt Li returned home from the hospital, Dong Fang deliberately took her to visit her again.  The burnt planks and wall bricks have not been repaired, and there is always a choking smell of burning.

    After the fire, Aunt Li looked ten years older overnight, with deep creases forming on her face.  When Dong Fang came in, Aunt Li didn't even raise her eyelids, but kept moaning, as if she wasn't happy about anything.

    Dong Fang handed over a few baked sweet potatoes: "It's just baked, it tastes good, try it."

    Aunt Li's eyebrows trembled, and she spat out the sweet potato skin on the ground: "Hey, my life is really hard, I live a happy life, but I follow your example, what kind of quail are you raising? Now it's all right, there's nothing left,  It was completely burnt."

    Dong Fang suppressed the unhappiness in her heart, and said in a low voice: "That's fine, you'd better not raise quails in the future, this business is inherently risky. Now many people in the county are worrying about the quails and eggs in their hands.  Go, there is no market."

    Hearing this, Aunt Li threw half of the sweet potato in her hand on the ground, her nostrils were full of breath: "Oh, I thought you really came to visit the sick. In the end, I just took a few sweet potatoes to block our family's wealth.  What? Tsk"

    "That's not what I mean. I really think that there are all kinds of risks here, so I should tell you about it." Dong Fang hurriedly explained.

    She came here with good intentions to remind Aunt Li's family not to blindly invest in the quail farming industry.  Thinking that this fire just happened to be an opportunity, I came to persuade him.  How do I know that it is still a dog biting Lu Dongbin, who doesn't know a good heart.

    "Bah! Why did you go so early? When we came to ask you about raising quails, why didn't you persuade us a little bit! Now it's all right, you see that all the quails in our house have been burned, and the poor family is ringing  Is it just to make sarcastic remarks? Oh, you will be a ghost if you believe in it. You want to persuade us not to raise it, okay, then you Dong family don¡¯t raise it either. If you raise it yourself and get rich and eat meat, that¡¯s all.  The minced meat is not willing to give us a share? I can see clearly that there are so many neighbors in this alley, and you, Dong Fang, are the most black-hearted."

    The house was on fire and the loss was huge. Aunt Li was holding her breath in her heart.  Hearing what Dong Fang said, she felt even more angry, and all kinds of vitriolic words came out of her mouth.

    Yongwei carefully picked up the sweet potatoes on the ground, and muttered: "Mom, keep your voice down, someone rescued you from the fire."

    "Damn boy, are you turning your elbows outward? What nonsense! Where are you then? It's enough for an outsider to earn enough face! I haven't settled this matter with you yet!" Aunt Li cursed  Grabbing the slippers on the ground, he slapped Yongwei hard on the face.

    Dong Fang bit her lower lip. She knew that this was a scholar meeting a soldier, so she couldn't explain why.  Aunt Li made trouble for no reason and made troubles. It would be useless for her to stay any longer.

    "Aunt Li, then you have a good rest, and I won't bother you." Dong Fang turned her head and stepped out the door.

    "Get out of here! With neighbors like you, I've been miserable for eight lifetimes!" The sound of Aunt Li patting the bed board was so loud that Dong Fang could still hear it when she was walking deep into the alley.

    She had some worries in her heart. At the beginning, she led these people into the quail farming industry, so she also had a responsibility to clearly tell them the changes and risks of the current market situation.  If the old neighbor Aunt Li misunderstood so much, what should the farmers in the village think?

    Thinking of this, DongFang tightly closed her eyes (Remember this site website: www.hlnovel.com
