Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 273 - 227: Old Demon Su Arrives at His Loyal Beer House!
Boss Cai's Iron Mountain Boar breeding base.
Inside the factory building.
Zhu Tianqing looked at the cramped living conditions of the Iron Mountain Boars, her Dai Mei tightly furrowed, her pair of beautiful, black gemstone-like eyes full of compassion.
"Oh, Old Cai!"
Standing next to the young girl, Su Yuan spoke discontentedly:
"The Saintess has been in our Taihua City for quite a while now."
"She has promoted the idea of equality between humans and monsters for so many days, I see you haven't listened at all!"
"It's already very pitiful that the Iron Mountain Boars are placed on human dining tables as food, and it's not even possible for them to live a little better while alive. Do you think this is appropriate?"
Boss Cai stared speechlessly at Su Yuan.
Zhu Tianqing lacked worldly experience and couldn't understand Su Yuan's manipulation, which was understandable.
But as a ranch owner, could Boss Cai not see Su Yuan's ploy to flatter Zhu Tianqing to her ruin?
Flatter to the point of ruin if you will, but choosing me as the first target is a bit underhanded, don't you think?
It seemed as though he saw through Boss Cai's thoughts, and Su Yuan cleared his throat and said:
"Old Cai, the Saintess and I have the same attitude towards all the farms in the city."
"Not only will we tour your farm, but we will also visit all the farms with the Saintess."
"Because you are my friend, you should be the first to respond and set an example, and make good reforms."
After a pause, Su Yuan shrugged and said: 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
"Of course, our suggestions with the Saintess are just that—suggestions. It's up to you whether to listen or not."
"But if everyone follows the Saintess's advocacy and reforms, and you're the only one with no movement, won't that provoke public anger..."
Boss Cai was silent for a moment, then immediately smiled and said:
"Thank you, Ambassador Su, for your advice. I'll reform right away. I just don't know to what extent the reform should be?"
Su Yuan replied indifferently:
"Why not give each pig a hundred-square-meter living space and let them wander outside morning, noon, and evening?"
"Don't talk to me about insufficient breeding space, I remember there's a brand-new employee dormitory just built on your farm."
"Let the farm workers endure a little hardship and move the pigs in first."
Boss Cai: "..."
He was almost amused by Su Yuan's words.
Do you hear yourself?
Let the pigs move into human dorms? Isn't that a bit overboard on flattering to ruin?
If Saintess Zhu finds out, you'll have a lot of trouble on your hands.
Boss Cai thought for a moment and cautiously asked Zhu Tianqing:
"Saintess Zhu, isn't this reform a bit too severe..."
"If Ambassador Su misunderstood your intentions in any way, could you kindly correct him?"
Zhu Tianqing sighed lightly:
"Let's not discuss the housing issue for the Iron Mountain Boars for now; I'm thinking about something more important."
"Every Iron Mountain Boar is sent to the slaughterhouse just as they reach adulthood, wasting their prime years."
"Boss Cai, could we wait until the Iron Mountain Boars die of natural causes before sending them to the slaughterhouse?"
"They are already great to provide us with meat; they shouldn't suffer cruel slaughter in life."
After hearing this, Boss Cai was thoroughly baffled.
Earlier, he was worried Su Yuan had gone overboard with his flattery to ruin.
But now it seems, compared to Zhu Tianqing, Su Yuan's scheme is still small!
This woman is utterly naive. If I run a farm according to her idea, I'll be bankrupt within a year.
Su Yuan quickly pulled Zhu Tianqing aside:
"Saintess, we're just beginning to educate the masses; there's no need for high demands. Let's first let the Iron Mountain Boars move into the big houses."
Zhu Tianqing thought for a moment and reluctantly nodded.
The Iron Mountain Boar farm began to undergo vigorous reform.
And over the next week, Su Yuan took Zhu Tianqing to visit every big and small farm in the city, "suggesting" they all reform.
As for the slaughterhouses, there was no need to go there.
Without farms supplying meat, the slaughterhouse workers had already gone home long ago.
Without meat at the slaughterhouses, the major food markets, and even chain supermarkets in Taihua City naturally had no meat either.
Faced with this suddenly vacated market, meat merchants in several large cities around Taihua City naturally had the urge to move.
But no matter how tempted they were, they dared not extend their hand an inch into Taihua City.
The reason was simple.
Although Zhu Tianqing's expansion of Spirit Beast business was limited to Taihua City, who said she couldn't visit nearby cities?
At this moment, nearby cities could only dodge, how could they dare make business with Spirit Beast meat?
Even the existing portions of the meat import market had long ceased.
In this way, the entire Taihua City was plunged into a state of no meat to eat.
But eating meat is human nature, no matter how much Zhu Tianqing advocated vegetarianism, most people still wanted to eat meat.
This gave rise to a black market selling meat.
The price of Spirit Beast meat on the black market was ten times higher than in normal times, and it kept rising.
So who opened this black market?
Honestly, it wasn't the Primordial Sect, but some small merchants who originally made a living selling meat.
But their ability to open a black market in Taihua City was naturally with the Underground King's permission from the Primordial Sect, and they had to hand over at least half of their daily profits to the Sect.
This kind of profitless business feels great to do.
Not only could he clear himself of the suspicion of selling meat on the black market, but Su Yuan could also occasionally make a show of righteousness by closing down a few black market stalls, deepening Zhu Tianqing's trust in him.
As Zhu Tianqing imposed her personal will to make most of the ordinary people in Taihua City unable to eat meat, the Demonic Qi on her body became increasingly overwhelming, which Su Yuan greatly enjoyed absorbing.
Evening, inside the expansive flat in the city center where Zhu Tianqing stayed.
