Tongtong took a small bottle of white powder from his pants pocket. "Dad, with this, the lobsters will be lively again!"
"What is this?" Liu Yifeng asked curiously.
"This is what that old man who taught me to observe the stars gave me. He said we were destined to meet, so he gave me this Rejuvenation Powder. He said as long as I pour this Rejuvenation Powder into the water, dying animals can be revived. To tell you a secret, this old man can not only observe the stars, but he can also tell fortunes. He's incredibly powerful," Tongtong said mysteriously.
Liu Yifeng's eyes widened. "Is it really that magical?" He felt like these things were beyond his comprehension.
"Really, I found a small dog hit by a car on the roadside before. It was badly injured, so I poured a little Rejuvenation Powder into water and fed it to the dog. Before long, the dog could stand up!" Tongtong quickly explained, afraid Liu Yifeng wouldn't believe him.
Knowing that Tongtong wasn't one to lie, Liu Yifeng had to believe him. He immediately became eager. "Then what are we waiting for? Hurry and sprinkle the Rejuvenation Powder in, or the lobsters will die!"
Tongtong wasted no more words. He unscrewed the cap and poured in half the contents. Soon, a miraculous scene unfolded. The lobsters, which had been lying motionlessly in the water, slowly began to swim. Seeing this, Liu Yifeng was extremely excited. "They actually came back to life, this is too incredible."
"What are you father and son talking about?" Liu Chunsheng walked over from not far away, holding a shovel.
Liu Yifeng pointed at the lobsters in the water and said loudly, "Dad, look quickly, the lobsters are alive again."
"What nonsense are you spouting, son? These lobsters are practically dead, and they can still come back to life?" Liu Chunsheng thought his son was hallucinating.
"It's true, you'll know if you just look," Liu Yifeng's expression was still incredibly excited.
Looking at his son, who seemed a bit frantic, Liu Chunsheng, half-believing, half-doubting, glanced towards the lobsters in the field. He was stunned. He put down his shovel and rubbed his eyes vigorously. Sure enough, the lobsters, which had been motionless moments ago, were now slowly swimming, some even blowing bubbles.
"What... what is happening?" He had never heard of lobsters on the verge of death being able to become so lively so quickly. Even if they were put back into the water, they wouldn't last long.
"Dad, are you not worried about us losing money now?" Liu Yifeng said in a great mood.
"Quickly tell me, what's going on?" Liu Chunsheng asked excitedly, full of curiosity.
Liu Yifeng pointed to the small bottle in Tongtong's hand. "It's the medicine in Tongtong's hand that saved the lobsters."
Liu Chunsheng followed his son's gaze to the bottle in Tongtong's hand, looking somewhat incredulous. "What kind of medicine is this? It's so powerful?"
"Grandpa, this is from an old gentleman who gave it to me. With this, we don't have to worry about not being able to raise the lobsters anymore!" Tongtong shook the bottle in his hand.
"Tongtong, be careful, don't drop the bottle," Liu Chunsheng warned anxiously. Such a powerful thing couldn't be wasted.
Looking at the lobsters in the entire field, all revived, Liu Chunsheng sighed with emotion. "Our Liu family truly has ancestral incense burning, to have such a good grandson."
"Tongtong, you don't have much Rejuvenation Powder left. Will there be any when it's used up?" Liu Yifeng asked. More than two thousand jin of lobsters had already used up more than half of it. If they used it again, wouldn't it be gone? This was his most pressing concern.
"Dad, don't worry, Grandpa gave me the formula. I can make it myself when it's used up."
Liu Yifeng's eyes immediately lit up with surprise. "Tongtong, can you really make this medicine?"
"My grandson is so capable, if he says he can, then he definitely can. But Tongtong, we shouldn't forget our roots. That old gentleman taught you so much knowledge, we must thank him properly," Liu Chunsheng said.
"But I don't know where Grandpa is. He said we'd meet again when there's an opportunity," Tongtong said, his big, watery eyes looking as if they could speak, incredibly cute.
Great individuals are always mysterious. Liu Chunsheng didn't say anything more after hearing this. Seeing how effective the Rejuvenation Powder was, Liu Yifeng seemed to have thought of something and immediately asked, "Tongtong, if this Rejuvenation Powder is so powerful, then if a person is injured or sick and takes water mixed with this Rejuvenation Powder, will they be cured?"
Unexpectedly, Tongtong shook his head. "Dad, no! Grandpa specifically instructed that this medicine is only effective for small animals. It has no effect on humans!"
Hearing this, Liu Yifeng felt a pang of regret. If it had an effect on humans, they would truly be rich. However, being able to save the lobsters was quite good. At least he could make a profit of several times the difference.
"Then what should Dad feed the lobsters?" Liu Yifeng was raising lobsters for the first time and had little experience.
Tongtong looked at the lobsters in the water and after thinking for a while, said, "You can feed them some water hyacinths, water lettuce, and other green plants. If possible, you can also feed them insects, adult or larvae, earthworms, snails, clams, and other animal food. These are all suitable. Dad can just feed them. Their bodies have absorbed the medicinal properties, so they will absorb anything they eat very well, and they will grow very fast. But don't feed them today, let them absorb more of the medicinal properties, so they'll have a better appetite tomorrow."
"My dear grandson, you know so much," Liu Chunsheng praised from the side. Such a clever grandson was probably rare in the world! And they were fortunate enough to have him. He should go up the mountain to worship their ancestors properly sometime.
Ensuring that the lobsters couldn't escape, the father and son trio then drove home. As soon as they arrived, they were blocked at the entrance by his third uncle.
"Third Uncle, why are you here? I was planning to return the car to you later!" Liu Yifeng got out of the car and walked towards him. However, Liu Chasheng's expression was not good. He didn't speak but walked to his car, opened the door, and sniffed vigorously. A pungent fishy smell assailed his nostrils, making him frown.
"I heard you bought over a dozen baskets of dead lobsters to raise today?" Liu Chasheng asked, leaning out of the car.
Liu Yifeng nodded. "Mm, but they weren't dead, just not very lively."
"I don't care if they were dead or alive, how could you use my newly bought minivan to transport lobsters? You've made my car smell awful," Liu Chasheng said unhappily.
"Third Uncle, listen to me..." Liu Chunsheng's words were interrupted by Liu Chasheng.
"Second Brother, don't say anything. I kindly lent you the car for you and your son, and this is how you treat my car? It now smells so bad, how can anyone sit in it?"
