Chapter 5

One night, Ming Ding was getting ready for bed. Then Ping Pong came into the room. "So I hear you're quite popular Mr. Ming Dong." said she. "Yes I can't believe it, all the animals are singing my phrases and chanting my rules. But I can't help but think that something is missing." He said. "What can it be?" asked Ping Pong. "Oh yes, I don't think we have the right materials. We need to trade with Animal Farm, so we can so we can have enough materials to take over the world!" said Ming. "But Napoleon is dead, and they have a new leader. His name is Leo and he's an anit-Napoleonist." said Ping Pong. "Oh no I forgot about him, and we barely have any materials too." said Ming. "We'll talk to Leo in the morning when he comes to visit, go to sleep." said Ping Pong as she went under the covers.

The next day, Leo the pig came by Linga Farm. He was a good size pig, fat yes. He went up to Ming. "Welcome to my farm!" said Ming. "It's lovely. So you want to trade do you?" asked Leo. "Yes I need some more farm equipment and a few weapons to help us spread Animalism around to other farms." said Ming. Leo looked at him with a glare on his face. "What will you give us in return, you barely have any resources." said Leo. Ming thought for a second. "I'll cut down the animal's food supply, I'll trade the animal's food for farm equipment and more weapons." said Ming. "Isn't that kind of ripping us off?" asked Leo. "I don't think so." said Ming. "If you cut down the animal's food supply, then you'd be starving them." said Leo. "Then if they must die to make a strong farm then so be it." said Ming.

"When I look at you I see Napoleon, a perfect copy." said Leo. "Hopefully. Let me put it to you this way dear Leo. You're just a little flower who has yet to bloom into a perfect Animalist." said Ming. Leo became angry and blushed with anger and headed for the door. "Wait, where are you going?! What about the equipment and the weapons?!" asked Ming. "The trucks will be here in the morning to load the animal's food! We'll send you the farm equipment! But you can forget about the weapons!" said Leo. "Please send me the weapons!" begged Ming. "Never! By the way, if you love Napoleon so much, why don't you go sleep on his grave! Good day!" Leo yelled rushing out of the house.

The next day, the animals woke up and realized something was missing. "Where is our food?!" declared one animal. "It was here yesterday! Things don't just disappear over night!" yelled another on. "I can't believe it, where in the world could the food have gone?" asked another one. Then they all heard a truck, they snuck in front of the house, and saw a couple of trucks, one loading the food, the other one with more farm equipment. "What is this?!" asked one animal. "I'll tell you!" it was Ming. "The reason why the food is being loaded into the truck is because we're trading it with Animal Farm. As you can see we are years behind Animal Farm and the Infidels!" said Ming. "When will we get some more food?!" asked another animal. "We'll get it in good time Comrades!" said Ming.

All the animals booed at him. "How are we going to work if we have nothing to eat!" said a dog. "The next animal who complains will be sent to the slaughterhouse!" said Ming. All the animals were silent. A few weeks went by, the animals were starving and working at the same time. Those who complained were sent to the slaughterhouse, never to return. Soon, the animals turned on each other and resorted to cannibalism. Then one of the guard dogs came into the house with a big bag of letters. "What this?!" asked Ming. "It's from all the animals sir, they're starving, at least write back to some of them!" said the dog. "What for?!" asked Ming. "Just to lie to them and tell them that you still care about them." said the dog.

"What it's a waste of time!" said Ming. "But the farm is counting on you to make things right sir." said the dog. Ming just smiled, "Half of the farm may well have to die. Just to catch up to the Infidels and the Animal Farm." said Ming. "But sir…." But Ming interrupted the dog, "You ever speak out against me again, I'll have you sent to the slaughterhouse! You hear me mutt?!" asked Ming, while Ping Pong giggled. "Yes sir." The dog said. The dog then left. "God all the animals are fools, aren't they Ping?" said Ming. Ping Pong then smiled, "It's so funny that we're here eating some of the animal's food, while the animals are starving!" they both started laughing. That night it started raining and a huge flood wiped out the farm's population, due to the fact that the farm's population was bigger than Animal Farm. It destroyed animal's homes and their farm equipment. The animals cried in horror and cried through the days and nights hoping for a miracle. But Ming did nothing to solve the flood problem. He didn't make an single effort at all.
