After a simple welcome ceremony, Bi Fang found the dog food bag and fed them some food.
"Goudan, have you gained weight?"
Bi Fang pinched the meat on the back of his neck and finished eating in his own bowl. Then he went to grab Erha from other dog bowls and came back, picked it up and weighed it.
Three months have passed, and Bi Fang is not sure whether the original weight is what it is now.
Seeing that all the food in the other dog bowls were eaten, Erha, who was picked up, let out a cry and lowered his head in frustration, looking listless.
After rubbing the dog's head angrily, Bi Fang put it down and played with several big dogs for a while.
An hour later, Bi Fang packed up and took care of his aquarium and ecological tank.
Some corners are already covered with green algae.
In the evening, I cooked some vegetables and had a simple dinner.
The weather was so hot that even if the air conditioner was turned on, the six large dogs were still a little tired. After eating, they looked for places to lie down in various corners of the house, with their long, soft fur spread out.
Bi Fang thought it might be necessary to shear them.
The next morning, Bi Fang took out six dog leashes, tied them one by one, and led the six dogs to the pet store. The scene was extremely spectacular.
Watching Fugui, who was so grand at first, come out and tremble like chaff, Goudan also started to tremble.
Living in the Arctic, they have never encountered situations where the summer is too hot and requires shearing.
"I didn't give you all the ticks again." Bi Fang kicked Fugui, who was losing his spirit, and thought it was funny.
There is a difference between shaving and shearing, and the dog’s body temperature regulation is also okay. A dog that is used to having hair, especially a dog with double-layered hair or a dog with thick hair, may even feel uncomfortable if it is suddenly shaved on a hot day.
It's cold and they will huddle together in the shade.
Bifang is aware of these, so he did not cut the pet store too short, but left more than half of it, so as to effectively reduce the temperature without causing too much damage to the appearance, and the appearance actually looks more impressive.
In the end, even Erha, who seemed to have the shortest hair, was not able to escape a haircut.
Compared with Alaskan and Samoyed, this guy's hair looks short, but actually has three layers of hair, which is very thick.
It was already noon when all six large dogs were trimmed. When leaving, the pet store didn't even ask for Bifang's money. They just offered to take a photo of Bifang and the six large dogs to display in the store.
Bi Fang did not refuse, and then took Liu Sha home, drove a semi pickup truck, and prepared to go to the Wilderness Club.
Six big dogs couldn't fit in an ordinary family car or even an SUV, so Bifang had to buy a semi-platform pickup truck.
The so-called half-row pickup truck means that the front is the driver's seat and the back is the cargo box. One of the typical examples is the Ford Raptor from China.
Then Bi Fang stuffed the six dogs into the back and stepped on the accelerator towards the club.
At the same time, the truck transporting Alpha also arrived at the back mountain chartered by the club. Yao Jun had been waiting here early in the morning, watching the truck open, and the transport staff carefully took down the blindfolded Alpha.
When Bi Fang arrived, he happened to see Yao Jun riding Alpha.
"You can be so courageous." Bifang opened the door and got out of the car, "Theoretically, Alpha is still a wild camel. Apart from me who has ridden one myself, you are the second one."
Bi Fang was able to ride Alpha because he captured and tamed it himself.
The beast will always surrender to the more powerful individual.
Even tigers are no exception.
Alpha is indeed very quiet in front of Bi Fang, but it is still unknown whether he is willing to be ridden in front of other people.
"It seems that Alpha and I are destined to be together." Yao Jun was not surprised but overjoyed when he heard this. He got off Alpha and led him to Bifang.
"Anyway, it's none of my business if you get kicked."
"It's so cruel. I'm your number one brother!" Yao Jun secretly felt sad, "I'm so sincere."
"What's wrong, brother number one? Do you want me to dance for you?"
"Wait a minute, I want to record a video."
"Get lost."
Bi Fang went straight to the back of the car, pulled out the latch, lowered the partition, and let the six dogs out.
As soon as the six dogs jumped out of the pickup truck, they pounced on Yao Jun and licked his hands and face.
During Bi Fang's absence, Yao Jun basically left the daily dog walking to Yao Jun, and the two parties became very familiar with each other.
But the Goudans saw the vast land in a blink of an eye, and they ran wildly like joy, their hair flying in the wind, elegant and agile.
Although the villa with the courtyard is very big, no matter how big it is, it is still inside the house. How can the world be so vast that you can't see the horizon at a glance.
This place is relatively remote and not many people come here, so Bi Fang just leaves them alone.
"A horse farm recently opened in Houshan, and the camels are kept together. I opened a new room in the stable to accommodate Alpha. I think the two are similar. As for the food issue, professionals will take care of it.
You don’t have to worry either.”
“What should I do during the breeding season?”
When Bi Fang was able to tame Alpha, the main method he used was to make Alpha understand that it would be more comfortable for Alpha to follow the humans in front of him than to live alone in the desert.
Since you have made a promise, of course you must keep it.
Not only food and drink, but all aspects must be considered.
Yao Jun thought for a while: "Get two more camels? Or there are camels in the desert pavilion. If necessary, you can borrow them."
The entire club covers an extremely huge area, nearly a thousand hectares. In addition to the club and hunting grounds, there are also an aquarium, a jungle pavilion and a desert pavilion. The aquarium is an expansion of the former Magic City Aquarium. Every visitor
The amount is quite large, and the desert museum has already raised iconic desert animals such as camels.
Oh, now there is an additional racecourse, and the size has further increased.
Such a huge area is not an exaggeration, after all, there are hundreds of Disneyland next door.
"Can."
"You are so relaxed, just nod here."
"He who can do it should work harder. Besides, I am very tired after every live broadcast."
"Okay, okay, then I will also get paid. Did you bring me anything good this time?"
"I leave you the ostrich feather shawl."
"Wuhu!"
Bi Fang and Yao Jun came to the stables, briefly inspected Alpha's new home, and nodded with satisfaction.
"You don't have to let Alpha stay in the stable all the time. You can let him go out for a walk. It doesn't matter if he picks up guests. Animals also need to exercise."
"The free time should not be less than ten hours a day, the working time should not exceed four hours a day, the total working time in a week should not exceed twenty-five hours, and the weight should not exceed one hundred kilograms at a time. In short, as much as possible
Ensure freedom and comfort, don’t regard it as a profit point, we don’t rely on this to make money.”
As Bi Fang spoke, he asked the staff in the stable to take out notes and record them.
Seeing such benefits, they even felt a little jealous in their hearts.
Oh shit!
The popular drink is spicy, and there is a female camel to play with. Is this the winner of the camel birth?
Why am I not even as good as a camel?
For this month's salary, several people resisted the urge to drop their pens and record every benefit of Camel Alpha.
The daily work of those camels in the Gobi is very heavy, because those farmers need camels to make profits, but Bifang doesn't need them. He doesn't care whether he loses money by raising Alpha. Anyway, he is not short of money, and he won't care if he keeps a group of them like this. deficit.
The reason why Alpha is allowed to receive tourists is just to ensure the amount of exercise.
Of course, it would also be a good thing if more tourists come because of the Alpha gimmick.
After setting up Alpha, Bi Fang led a strong black horse out of the stable. The muscles all over his body were surging like running water. He saw that it was a good horse. He immediately grabbed a pair of bows and arrows and prepared to go to the hunting ground with Yao Jun. Have a gallop.
As a wilderness traveler, Bifang automatically mastered a large number of animal training skills and riding skills, which was no weaker than anyone who grew up on horseback.
As for Yao Jun, this playboy is good at other things, but he has a lot of skills in picking up girls, and he also knows a lot about outdoor sports. Although he is not a good horse rider, he is not weak either.
Seeing Bifang coming out, the six dogs running on the grass stopped, stuck out their tongues wildly and turned around to follow the two men.
"After riding a camel for a long time, I feel that the horse is indeed not as comfortable as the camel."
Bi Fang smacked his lips on the horse's back.
Although the modern saddle conforms to human body mechanics and is much more comfortable than the one made by hand in the wilderness, it is still far inferior to the natural fat pad of the camel.
The stability is also quite poor.
The walking posture of a camel is completely different from that of a horse. Its back is almost stable and motionless. This is why it can safely carry goods.
But horses are completely different. Their backs have ups and downs when running. Of course, a good rider can control them, but it also takes effort.
"You ask for so much."
Yao Jun opened his bow and nocked an arrow, and with the help of the optical sight on the bow arm, he aimed at a rabbit grazing in the bushes in the distance.
A bow and arrow with a rubber arrow shot out, and finally plunged into the soil with a whoosh. Not only did it miss the rabbit, it didn't even hit the electromagnetic induction range.
The frightened rabbit ran away. Goudan Fugui saw it and rushed in quickly. But even faster than them was another arrow that cut through the air and hit the rabbit sideways, knocking it over.
Before it could get up, the electromagnetic collar around its neck sensed the arrow and released an electric current, paralyzing the rabbit.
When Goudan arrived and was about to come back with the prey in his mouth to collect the reward, the collar had not stopped discharging electricity and Erha was electrocuted until he howled.
"Hahaha, silly dog!"
Yao Jun laughed. After he finished laughing, he saw Bi Fang's bare bow arm without any sight from the corner of his eye, and he suddenly became depressed.
The gap between humans is really greater than that between humans and dogs.
In the end, Fugui bit the rabbit that stopped discharging electricity, rushed back in a hurry, and was fed a bone rod by Bifang under Goudan's envious eyes.
Bi Fang stuffed the unconscious rabbit into the cage and asked, "Has nothing happened recently?"
Bifang thought that the rules of the entire hunting ground were as perfect as possible, but he was always afraid of accidents.
The arrows all use rubber arrowheads, which can hit the person in time. As long as they don't hit the eye, there won't be much damage.
After hitting the rabbit's collar, the discharge current from the collar is not large and can only have a stunning effect.
Even if someone accidentally touches it, they will only feel a slight sting.
Entry is even restricted to teenagers under the age of twelve.
"Nothing major happened. There were indeed a few accidental injuries, but they were not serious injuries. At most, there were some scratches. Our medical staff also dealt with them in a timely manner, and basically no one caused trouble."
"Everyone who comes here to play is basically mentally prepared to encounter difficulties. In addition, a large part of the tourists are your fans. Even if someone does come to cause trouble, they will not get support and sympathy."
Yao Jun smiled, obviously he knew these things more clearly than Bi Fang.
"Besides, our operations are all licensed and certified. Even if we file a lawsuit, we will only lose some money at most."
Bi Fang nodded and stopped worrying about this.
After playing the hunting game for a while, many people recognized Bifang.
The six sled dogs were a big hit.
Originally, Bi Fang was worried about whether these six dogs would hurt people, but later he realized that he was a little worried.
Completely cooked.
Bi Fang went to the desert pavilion next to him to have a look. After expressing concern about the condition of the camels and the intensity of the work, he took the prey for a feast of rabbit meat.
These rabbits are raised and then released into the mountains. The meat is not only inferior in quality, but also has a bit of meatiness in it because it has been running in the mountains for a period of time.
At least judging from the performance of Goudan, it tastes quite good.
After dinner, Yao Jun suddenly remembered something: "By the way, the Gambia rat you asked me to buy for you last time has arrived, and I put it in the jungle pavilion."
Bi Fang was stunned: "I thought you forgot."
"You didn't mention it, didn't you? I didn't think of it. It's been more than a month, and there is still a litter of mice."
"How much did you buy?"
Bi Fang was quite surprised.
"Haha, not many, thirty-four. Oh, there are almost forty now. The response from tourists is pretty good."
"Why do you suddenly want to do such a thing?"
"It might come in handy one day."
"Are you going to clear mines?"
Yao Jun was surprised because when Bifang asked him to deal with these rats, he said that he had to be trained in demining, but he didn't expect that he would actually use it.
Is this being drafted again or something?
Yao Jun knew Bi Fang's identity well. He was a soldier who had no illness or disaster and retired from the army in his twenties. It was not unusual for him to be drafted again.
Gambia rat.
The official name is "big-cheeked kangaroos", so named because they like to store inedible food in their cheeks.
They are the largest rodents known in the world, weighing more than 4 kilograms, and some are larger than domestic cats.
This kind of rat can live up to 8 years and has a docile temperament. Many people keep it as a pet.
The most important thing is that the Gambia rat has an extremely sensitive sense of smell and can accurately smell the smell of TNT explosives in landmines, no less than a professional mine detection dog.
Compared with other mine detection methods, the Gambia rat has unique advantages.
It will not be like a metal mine detector that cannot distinguish landmines from iron nails, nor will it be like an armored bulldozer that can only work on flat ground.
Although dogs are also experts in mine detection, they have many limitations. For example, many mine detection dogs cannot adapt to the tropical climate of Africa; moreover, they are too emotional, have too deep personal relationships with their trainers, and are disobedient once they change people.
Compared with dogs, Gambia rats are low-cost, small in size, will not detonate even if they accidentally touch landmines, and they are dedicated to their work.
If used for demining, Bifang is not only easy to carry, but also highly efficient.
"Why do you still have to worry about this kind of thing?"
"Actually, many wilderness areas have been mined by past wars, such as the Sudanese grasslands in Africa, the jungles of North Vietnam, and Laos. I may go to these places in the future. It's not a bad thing to prepare early." This chapter has been completed!
