Rebirth on the top of the mountain, my herding career
Chapter 72 The Border Collie
"bite!"
Event: Gunshots that broke the tranquility
Event progress: 100%
…
Qin Xifeng fetched water, took a shower, and then got ready to sleep.
However, the progress of the event, which had been stuck at 99%, finally made progress. The prompt that the event was completed came unexpectedly, which actually gave him a little surprise.
He thought that maybe the yellow sheep released into the mountains had safely found their own population, so the system judged that the event mission was completely completed.
Qin Xifeng was no longer sleepy now and got up immediately.
Reward: livestock nutrition powder (3 packs), livestock pregnancy test paper (3 boxes), improved border collie (6 dogs), cash (800 yuan)
Special reward: Proficient in Veterinary Medicine (Intermediate), overall physical quality increased by 7%
…
Qin Xifeng received the reward, and he was in a good mood.
The rewards this time are not huge, but they are very practical. For example, nutritional powder is similar to feed additives and can be added to fodder and drinking water for livestock.
Nutrient powder can accelerate the growth rate of livestock, shorten the fattening time, increase the milk production time of livestock, and can also improve the health of livestock.
Qin Xifeng looked at the list of reward items. It said that the use of nutritional powder can increase the overall output rate of livestock by 35% without any side effects.
Test strips are also very useful. In fact, he has always wanted to know whether the breeding of golden wild yaks and domestic yaks was successful.
Border Collie (improved type), referred to as "Border Collie", is a very excellent shepherd dog breed. The list stated that it would be delivered on the next day, which made Qin Xifeng roll his eyes.
We chose a day to deliver, we chose a day to deliver, and finally 5 golden wild yaks were delivered, but not only did they make a big fuss, they also left without saying goodbye in the end.
This is pretty good. The 6 wild horses that were previously rewarded still have no hair. I wonder if the "express delivery" sent them to the wrong address.
800 yuan in cash, no more, no less.
It is a good thing for a veterinarian to improve his knowledge and skills. After all, he works with livestock all day long and can often use them.
The overall improvement rate of physical fitness is on a downward trend, and he has adapted to it.
After receiving the reward, Qin Xifeng slept soundly at night.
Early the next morning, he got up to fetch water. In addition to drinking water in the wild, livestock also had to drink water in the corral in the morning and night.
At this time, before Gulidan got up, Qin Xifeng added nutritional powder to the water and let the animals in the two corrals drink it.
Three packets of nutritional powder can be used for a long time, so there is no need to worry about not having enough.
After finishing this work, he went to the creek to wash up. On the way back, he saw a shabby cardboard box containing 6 puppies that were just one month old.
"Is it delivered?"
He felt that he must have read it correctly. He had information about Border Collies in his memory. This breed of dog, native to the high mountains of Scotland, was quite famous.
Qin Xifeng then brought the adorable puppy back to the camp.
"Xifeng, where did this puppy come from? It's so cute!"
Gulidan had woken up and was about to go to the stream to get water. Not long after he went out, he met Qin Xifeng.
"I picked it up at the bottom of the hillside. Maybe someone nearby wanted to give the puppy to us, but was too embarrassed to come up, so he put it on the road we must pass to get water..."
Qin Xifeng did not lie, these six puppies were really found.
But his speculation was pure nonsense, just to deal with Gulidan.
"Hmph! The other party must have too many shepherd dogs and they didn't want to keep these puppies anymore, so they left them to us. However, you can keep such cute puppies."
Gulidan didn't think much about it. There were many kinds of shepherd dogs in pastoral areas. It was common for herders to give puppies to each other. It was not uncommon to find puppy puppies outside.
Although neither of them has a female dog that produces milk, based on their experience in taking care of lambs, these six puppies will definitely not be hungry.
Qin Xifeng made a nest for the puppies outside his yurt. Gulidan came over after making breakfast and fed them goat milk.
Goat milk may be more suitable for puppies than yak milk.
After breakfast, Qin Xifeng and Gulidan drove the herds out to graze. In this season, they had no stored fodder, and the cattle, sheep and horses could be fed at any time in the wild.
Today, in order to familiarize themselves with the environment, the two of them deliberately walked a little further, and unknowingly came close to Lake Kakuri.
"What are they doing?"
In the far distance, there were several herdsmen riding horses at high speed. If it weren't for the fact that there were no spectators around, Gulidan would have almost thought they were racing a horse.
Qin Xifeng raised the telescope hanging around his neck, and the scenery in the distance was clearly visible. He saw several horses with long manes competing for speed with several herdsmen.
"They're chasing wild horses..."
Qin Xifeng could recognize the group of horses galloping in front of the herdsmen as wild horses.
Wild horses have been recorded in Taman Wetland many times, but they have become less common in recent years. Unexpectedly, we encountered a large group today.
He had just roughly estimated that the number of wild horses in this group was between 20 and 30, which was a large group.
"Wow, there are actually wild horses here?"
Gulidan suddenly became excited. Seeing her eagerness to give it a try, he probably wanted to chase her on horseback and have a look.
Qin Xifeng knew that Gu Lidan was not familiar with the conditions in the wild, so he smiled and said: "It may not be what you think. We have never found a real wild horse here."
He explained to Gulidan that wild horses in the strict sense refer to "Przewalski's horses", but wild horses in a broad sense also include domestic horses that escape to live in the wild and reproduce naturally.
The wild horses found in the Palpaha area in the past were of the latter type. Domestic horses escaped to the wild and multiplied, eventually forming a wild horse population.
Although Qin Xifeng did not step forward to observe carefully, he also knew that the probability of Przewalski's horses appearing in the Taman Wetland was almost zero.
"That's right...then let's go take a look, okay?"
Although Gulidan felt a little disappointed, she still wanted to see the wild horse up close, so she looked at Qin Xifeng with expectation.
"Okay! There are sheepdogs watching the herd, so it doesn't matter if we leave for a while."
Qin Xifeng smiled and nodded, and the two of them settled the herd, then clapped their horses and rushed into the distance.
After chasing for a while, the herdsmen gradually slowed down and stopped. When they saw Qin Xifeng and Gulidan running closer, they greeted them politely.
After exchanging greetings, Qin Xifeng asked: "Do you want to catch those wild horses?"
"Wild horses are not that easy to catch, and they are not easy to tame, and it is difficult to get along with domestic horses, so what's the use? We are just bored and just chase wild horses for fun."
The other party was very honest and explained the reasons clearly.
After all, they are horses that have been breeding in the wild for countless generations. The main breed is still the Kirk horse, but they are inevitably a little more wild.
They are wild and difficult to tame, and they are not easy to raise, and the locals do not eat horse meat. Naturally, few people have the idea of herding wild horses.
"Haha, that's the same thing! Just rest while we catch up and take a look."
After Qin Xifeng nodded to others, he and Gulidan galloped to catch up with the wild horses in the distance.
The herdsmen were chatting and laughing, and then left the place.
