Years: Salted fish life since going to the countryside

Han Li walked to the very end of the street, where there were many stalls selling dogs.

As soon as I saw it, it was similar to the situation in the north of the city last time. There were both adults and puppies.

He didn't see the three or four-month-old puppy he had hoped for, which made Han Li somewhat disappointed.

But it’s all here, why don’t you read it all, in case there is a dog you need in front of you.

Some things were just so unspoken, Han Li saw the puppy he wanted in front of the outermost stall.

An old man tied five puppies with ropes, but the dogs' coat colors were very mottled, not like the local Northeast stupid dog.

"Master, do you want to change this dog?"

The old man glanced at Han Li, put down the cigarette pouch by his mouth, and said hastily.

"Change, I'm sure we'll have to change them after they've been brought to the city."

"Master, the color of your dog doesn't seem right?"

The uncle knocked on the cigarette bag and said: "This little comrade is an educated youth who jumped in the queue. I didn't expect you to know this. I won't hide it from you, uncle. The bitch at home brought her to the litter at some point, and then gave birth to these few dogs. cubs, but I think they should be wolf skewers."

"Wolf string? Please tell me, sir, I don't know much about these."

"Wolf skewers are the species born by the bitch and the wild wolf at home. They are a bit more wild, but once you domesticate them, they are your best helpers. Whether it is housekeeping or guarding the yard or driving mountains and sieges, they are top-notch. If I hadn’t been too old to run, these little guys would not be willing to change out.”

Han Li hesitated when he heard that it was wolf skewer. He had heard about wolf skewer when chatting with the villagers, and it was similar to what this old man said.

The cubs born by male dogs and female wolves usually live with the wolf pack, and when they grow up, they become authentic wild wolves.

If a male wolf and a female dog give birth to cubs, they will live with humans since childhood.

People under various influences have the opportunity to tame them and make them the best hunting dogs.

These first-generation wolf skewers have the wildness of wolves in their bodies, but also have the coordination and cooperation and hierarchical awareness of wolves.

As long as wolves can be domesticated well, they will not only be loyal and brave, but also possess the cunning and intelligence of wolves.

In the eyes of many old hunters, the best hunting dog is the first generation wolf string that has been successfully tamed.

But as the saying goes, a wolf travels a thousand miles to eat meat, and a dog travels a thousand miles to eat shit.

Now the dogs in the villagers’ homes are free-range. They usually look for things to eat outside, such as bugs, weeds, poop, etc., and the family only barks around the family when they can’t find food. Just feed something.

But if you want to tame these wolves well, as the master, you have to be willing to spend a lot of money.

Not only do they need to eat and drink well, but they also need to be patient and train them frequently.

The average family now does not have this ability at all, so this uncle did not tell the truth.

Old age, inability to run, and reluctance should only be secondary reasons, and inability to feed is the main reason.

When the uncle saw Han Li hesitated, he immediately became a little anxious.

His character does not allow him to lie, whenever someone asks him, he will tell the truth that he is a wolf

But when the other party heard that it was a wolf skewer, no one wanted it no matter how cheap it was.

He has brought these little guys out several times, and the family has already had opinions on this.

And when he was young, he often went to the mountains to fight siege, and he had an extraordinary affection for hounds.

For those who chase the mountains and fight sieges, these hunting dogs are not only partners when entering the mountains, but also comrades in arms when encountering danger.

Hunting dogs can not only walk ahead for reconnaissance, but also protect their masters in case of danger.

And Wolf Chuanzi is one of the best, which makes him have a strong attachment to Wolf Chuanzi.

Who would have thought that when I was young, I didn't meet him, but when I was old and couldn't run, I would send him home.

It's a pity that none of the children in the family are willing to venture up the mountain. If they can't be replaced today, they may be eaten by the family.

He was reluctant to turn these wolf skewers into a pile of meat in the basin, after all, this was his dream.

"Look at this educated youth."

The uncle made a gesture, and the wolf skewers immediately lined up in a row obediently, and after sitting down, they waited motionlessly for instructions.

It can be seen from this that they have been domesticated to a certain extent and have become very disciplined.

"They have gone through my preliminary training, and some simple instructions are fine. You just need to erect your majesty and let them know that you are the boss when you bring them home. You don't need to bother training them too much. Of course, if you are besieged, you need to Let's have some snacks."

The uncle grabbed one and handed it to Han Li and said.

"Look at the wide and squishy noses of these wolves, which shows that they have a very good sense of smell and are able to find prey and detect danger very well."

Then he grabbed the back of the wolf strings with his hands, and showed them one by one in front of Han Li.

"Look at them again, as soon as they are picked up, their limbs retract immediately, and their backs are arched like a hook. This shows that these wolves are very explosive and good at running. You can watch their eyes again."

Han Li was a little puzzled and acted according to the old man's words. It doesn't matter if you look at it, let him know what it means to have lightning-like eyes.

These wolves stared at Han Li with bright eyes, and they didn't dodge at all from the beginning to the end.

Grandpa: "See, this performance shows that these wolf stringers are resolute and brave. Only such dogs dare to go up to kill their prey when they are hunting. Those dogs that dodge people's eyes are absolutely not qualified to be As a member of the siege, they bark wildly twice at the door of the house at most, and they will only drag the owner down when they enter the mountain, and you can see that their mouths and claws are top-quality, and they can definitely become a good helper for the siege."

Han Li seemed to see reluctance and nostalgia in the uncle's cloudy eyes. This may be the reason why he tried his best to sell these dogs.

But listening to what the uncle said, these wolf skewers are really the best.

Even if I don't bring them into the mountains to fight around, they are definitely the most loyal existence and the best choice for the housekeeper.

Moreover, they can live for about ten years or so, even if they return to Sijiu City, they can accompany them for a long time.

You have to know that the situation in the past few years when you were able to return to the city was pretty good, otherwise you wouldn't have introduced a crime of exile.

"Master, you've been talking for a long time, how do you plan to change this wolf skewer?"

The uncle's eyes lit up when he heard Han Li asking the price, and he put down his cigarette pouch and said immediately.

"If you take all five of them, I will count you eight catties of fine grains in total, and if you only need one, it will be three catties of fine grains."

Han Li didn't know the market at all, but he still adjusted the price subconsciously.

"What eight catties of fine grain? You are too harsh, sir?"

The uncle looked at the educated youth who wanted it a little bit, and said quickly as if he wanted to counter the price.

"If these five wolf skewers meet a connoisseur, the price will be doubled, and someone will ask for it. The worst thing is to go back and ask the family to kill them and eat them deliciously."

Han Li: "Master, you are wrong to say that. No matter how good the wolf skewers are, it is not easy to feed them in this situation. If they are allowed to go out to find food by themselves like the dogs at home, even if they are dogs Real wolves are also useless. As for eating meat, look at how small they are, they are so skinny, can you have a bowl of meat after peeling and deboning?"

"You don't understand anything, kid? Then tell me how much you plan to say."

"I don't dare to understand, but I heard the men in the village say, how about I exchange five catties of rice with you? The quality of the rice is quite good, but it was broken a little during processing. If you think it's okay, we will make a deal."

After hearing this, the uncle's eyes lit up, and then he reluctantly looked at a few wolf skewers and said.

"Then do as you said, but you have to prepare the rope to tie the dog yourself."

Han Li also understood this point. The old rules were about selling pears but not baskets, selling cows and horses but not reins, and selling dogs but not ropes.

Han Li exchanged the rope from other places, and the moment the uncle replaced his dog's rope, he was still a little bit reluctant.

If they are kept, even if they are not eaten, they will grow into ordinary dogs. It hurts to think about it.

This educated youth is well-dressed and quick to shoot, and they won't be too aggrieved by each other.

Finding a suitable owner for these little guys by myself can be regarded as fulfilling my wish in disguise.

The uncle finally gritted his teeth and changed the rope, but before handing the rope to Han Li.

He talked a lot about his experience in domesticating wolves, and Han Li listened carefully. After all, this knowledge was his vacancy.

Unknowingly, the two of them talked for a long time, and in the end, the uncle still seemed a little not talking enough.

But seeing that it was getting late, the two of them quickly completed the transaction under the cover of each other, and Han Li now had five young wolf skewers in his hands.

These wolves were well tamed by the uncle, walking along the rope neither fast nor slow, always keeping the same speed as him.

Han Li went to the supply and marketing cooperative to replenish his usual consumables, and finally put some coarse grains on the top of the basket.

Only then did he start to walk back, but because of Lang Chuanzi, he chose to walk all the way back.

The main reason is to see the situation of a few wolves, and the villagers will see him as soon as he enters the village.

"Good guy, Han Zhiqing, why did you get so many dogs?"

Han Li had expected such a thing in his heart, and he had even chosen someone to help him take the blame, so he said with a smile.

"Hao Zhiqing and the others asked me to find this, and each of them plans to feed one."

"Let me tell you, but the dogs you chose are a little too poor."

"I thought it would be easy to make a living. A few female educated youths just used it to see the door, and they didn't plan to go into the mountains."

"That's true, Chuanzipi is really worry-free, even if you eat meat in the end, you don't feel bad."

"Hehe, you are right."

Han Li greeted all the way back to his home, and the barking of other dogs was indispensable on the way.

They seem to be demonstrating to these new little guys and swearing their territory at the same time.

It's a pity that the blind man lit the lamps-in vain, and the wolf string didn't pay attention to them at all.

Those who dared to go forward and bared their teeth were kicked back one by one by Han Li. After returning home, they tied up a few wolf strings, took out wooden planks and built a nest for the dogs next to the firewood stack.

Then Han Li followed the guidance of his uncle to start training these wolves. The uncle said that he would start training when he took over.

Especially these wolf skewers, you must let them know who is the boss at the first time.

Establishing good rules for them is conducive to cultivating their sense of hierarchy and loyalty.

Don't raise them for a period of time before starting them. At that time, they have no rules, and it will be very difficult for anyone to train them.

Looking at the five wolves in front of him, Han Li had to say that they were really powerful.

These five little guys were sneaked away in the county town for a day, and then they were led all the way back by Han Li.

At this time, even Han Li was thirsty and hungry, but they still squatted there in an orderly manner, neither running nor barking.

Whether a dog can become a dog for chasing mountains, the sound is very important, and this one can eliminate most dogs.

Because a dog that likes to bark should never be used for siege. Otherwise, as soon as the prey is found after entering the mountain, the dog will bark excitedly, and the prey will not run away when it hears it? The prey has run away and hit a hammer.

Because these wolves have wolf nature in their bodies, hunting is their natural instinct, so they don't bark at all.

This is just like the old folk saying that barking dogs don't bite, and biting dogs don't bark.

Those cowardly and timid dogs like to bark. They are trying to use their barking to call their owners to embolden them, or to intimidate their opponents and prey to make them retreat.

Han Li pondered for a while before returning to the house. He dismantled the remaining cornbread into fine pieces, then took out half of an air-dried rabbit and similarly disintegrated them into fine pieces, melted the lard and sautéed them until fragrant. Take out the pot and put it in the wooden basin.

When Han Li came out with the wooden basin, he didn't feed them directly, but looked at them carefully.

Seeing that the five dogs were still squatting obediently without moving at all, Han Li nodded slightly.

Then he walked in front of them, took a few bites of the prepared food into his mouth, and then put down the wooden basin.

The five dogs couldn't sit still after smelling the scent, and they all rushed to grab something to eat.

Crack, crack, crack.

They were pulled back one by one by Han Li's slap. These little guys are wolves after all, and the fierceness in their bodies is still there.

All of them bared their teeth at Han Li with fierce faces, and then rushed towards this side again.

Crack, crack, crack.

These wolf skewers were photographed back again by Han Li, and none of the wolf skewers could get close to the wooden basin.

Then Han Li followed his uncle's instructions and beat up whoever dared to bark his teeth at him.

After beating all five little guys, Han Li moved the tub again.

As long as they dared to come forward to snatch the food, Han Li would mercilessly raise his hand and hit them, even if they dared to grin at him.

After repeating this several times, even if Han Li put the wooden basin in front of them, the five wolves did not dare to move.

In the end, no matter which wolf string Han Li looked at, it would obediently lie on the ground and make a chirping sound to express its submission to him.
