My Live Life at the Zoo

Chapter 384 Digging sweet potatoes with a pangolin!

"From now on, calls from these companies will be refused."

After handling all the calls, Li Xiao said.

"clear"

Tao Yaoyao nodded heavily, with admiration in her eyes.

The director's tone in rejecting these companies is really handsome.

Just like the male god in the anime, the three views are too upright.

"Ah."

Li Xiao smiled slightly.

What happened today is almost exactly the same as what happened to Wang Duoyu in "The Richest Man in Xihong City".

Wang Duoyu listened to Wolongfengchu's advice and planned to dig some icebergs from the North Pole, but the journey was so long that the icebergs melted. He thought he would lose money.

Who would have imagined that after the iceberg melted, there would be a nest of polar bears hidden inside, and the Coca-Cola Company just bought the portrait rights of the polar bears, resulting in a huge profit from this deal.

Bad luck and good fortune, no one knows what will happen next.

Li Xiao never thought that the seller would give the green peacock as a gift, let alone that the green peacock was in a half-dead state, and with his help, it became popular all over the Internet, and even got the attention and cooperation of so many companies.

……

The next morning, Li Xiao got up early, didn't even bother to eat breakfast, so he went straight to the zoo.

He wanted to see if the animals brought in yesterday were adapted to the life and environment here, and whether they showed any stress reactions.

Fortunately, they are very adaptable and all are doing well.

Especially the two lovely alpacas, which attracted many girls to watch early in the morning.

There's no way, girls can't hold back when faced with cute things.

When Li Xiao walked over, he happened to see two girls watching the alpacas.

One of the short-haired girls also specially bought fresh and tender radishes, and was going to experience feeding alpacas by herself.

Another long-haired girl stood aside to take pictures and record.

It looked like a pair of good girlfriends came out to play.

Everything is so warm.

until……

The short-haired girl only has a fresh carrot in her hand, which is only enough to feed one of the alpacas.

But when they saw that there was food, the two alpacas all swarmed over.

The short-haired girl was smart, she put the carrot in her mouth, and immediately bit it, trying to bite the carrot in half, which was just enough for two alpacas to share equally, which was very fair.

Click!

Carrots are snapped quickly.

However, when the short-haired girl approached the alpaca with a carrot, both alpacas showed disgusted expressions.

At first glance, it looks like a human being.

Not only that, but immediately after that, he spat at the short-haired girl one after another.

he! tui!

The warm scene once got out of control.

The long-haired girl on the side couldn't help but burst out laughing.

At first glance, they are close friends.

This scene happened to be transmitted to the live broadcast room.

Because it was still too early, most of the tourists were still asleep.

But after seeing this scene, everyone became energetic.

"Hahahaha, you made me laugh early in the morning."

"Is this despised?"

"Alpaca: I'll let you try my saliva first!"

"Alpaca: Bah! I won't eat what you've bitten, it's unlucky!"

"Alpaca: I don't eat it myself, but I feed it to Lao Tzu, I'm pissed!"

"Wait! Isn't this spitting action just Yu Hewei?"

"Politeness: Are you Yu Hewei?"

"Actually, this girl is quite good at living. She just wants every alpaca to have something to eat, but she just got rejected."

Even Li Xiao was amused by this funny scene.

However, he was professionally trained, and smiled with his mouth pursed, without making a sound.

Fortunately, the short-haired girl has a cheerful personality, and she didn't get angry because of it. She continued to feed the alpaca with her best friend.

The alpaca is also very generous, and it quickly ate.

A good day starts with seeing a funny scene.

After that, Li Xiao continued to patrol the zoo, taking care of every animal.

Until around [-]:[-], Tao Yaoyao found Li Xiao who was in the Tiger Park.

At this time, Li Xiao was observing all the tigers in the Tiger Park, trying to find a way to ease the relationship between the three major forces.

Behind Tao Yaoyao, Second Master Xue, whom he had not seen for a long time, followed.

"Hey, Second Master, why do you want to come to my zoo?"

Li Xiao was very curious and greeted him warmly.

Tao Yaoyao explained: "Second Master Xue has something to do and wanted to ask you for help. He found me first, but I couldn't make up my mind, so I brought it to you."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

Li Xiao became more and more curious and asked.

"Dig sweet potatoes!"

"what?"

Li Xiao was bewildered.

At this time, Second Master Xue came forward and said, "I planted some sweet potatoes before, aren't they ripe? You also know that our husband and wife are getting old, and our legs and feet are a bit inconvenient, let alone going up the mountain to dig sweet potatoes. I have to carry it back and forth, so I thought of you.

In fact, there are not many sweet potatoes, and they can all be dug out in one day.

I won't let you help me in vain. After digging the sweet potatoes, I will give you half of them.

If you're too busy..."

Xue Erye became more and more embarrassed as he spoke, and his voice became lower and lower.

Because he knew that Li Xiao was a busy person right now, and with such a big zoo to take care of, he definitely wouldn't have enough time.

Unlike before, he could call Li Xiao anytime he needed anything.

"It's not busy, I'll go after I finish my lunch!"

Li Xiao interrupted Second Master Xue and said simply.

"It's so fun, won't it delay your work?"

Second Master Xue's eyes widened, a little surprised.

"Of course I will, but..."

Li Xiao chuckled and said: "You also know that I like to eat sweet potatoes, especially in winter, sitting on the kang at home, eating warm roasted sweet potatoes, and drinking a bowl of sweet potato rice porridge, not to mention how comfortable it is. "

"Hahaha, you kid!"

Second Master Xue immediately beamed with joy, and asked, "By the way, do you know how to get to the sweet potato field?"

"Not sure, but Xiao Hei can show me the way!"

Li Xiao patted Xiao Hei's head while talking.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Xiao Hei is also very smart, and immediately called out with interest.

"Hahaha, I forgot about this little guy."

Second Master Xue said with a smile: "Okay, let Xiao Hei take you there at noon, I'll go back and tell the old woman to make something good at night, and you come to my house for dinner."

Watching Second Master Xue leave, Tao Yaoyao came over: "I haven't dug sweet potatoes yet, can I go with you at noon?"

"Okay, there are so many people!"

Li Xiao nodded in agreement.

In fact, even if Second Master Xue didn't give compensation, even if Li Xiao didn't have time, he would forcefully find time to help.

After all, I was watched by Erye Xue and grew up. When I was a child, I went to his house to eat a lot of meals. I can be regarded as his half-grandson. should help.

These sweet potatoes can be sold or eaten by themselves. At least it can make the life of Xue Erye and his wife better this winter.

Because he was going to dig sweet potatoes at noon, Li Xiao stopped wandering around the zoo and began to prepare the tools he needed.

After lunch, immediately set off.

Before setting off, Li Xiao even stayed with a few cute little animals.

pangolin!
There are three pangolins in Li Xiao's zoo.

One of them drilled a hole to get to the zoo by himself, and ran to the place where the panda Pippi lived by mistake, and was beaten up by Pippi.

The other two are a pair of mother and son.

They were saved by Li Xiao on his way to Tianshan Mountain.

Pangolins are good at digging holes. Since we want to dig sweet potatoes, we must bring them with us.

In fact, star-nosed moles are also very good at digging holes. The reason why they didn't bring them is because Li Xiao felt that they just arrived yesterday and they still need to continue to adapt in the zoo.

Just like some children, when they first come to kindergarten, they will be very uncomfortable, crying and shouting for their mothers to ask for their fathers. After a few days of getting used to it, they will get used to it.

"Principal, stop dawdling, hurry up!"

"I remember digging sweet potatoes when I was a child, but I haven't done it for many years, and now it is full of memories!"

"I haven't dug sweet potatoes, I've only eaten them!"

"Bite into the baked sweet potato, it's absolutely delicious!"

"Stop talking, I can't wait to go downstairs and buy roasted sweet potatoes."

Under the enthusiastic cheers of the tourists in the live broadcast room, Li Xiao and Tao Yaoyao's pace became faster and faster.About 15 minutes later, under the leadership of Xiao Hei, Li Xiao and Tao Yaoyao came to a green sweet potato field about [-] square meters.

Li Xiao put down the bamboo basket, stretched himself, picked up the hoe and started digging.

You must master the strength when digging sweet potatoes. If it is light, you will not be able to dig it. If it is heavy, you may dig the sweet potato into two sections.

In addition, you must learn to find a nest.

Because the leaves of sweet potatoes are densely green, you need to follow the vines to find the location of the roots, and then you can dig. You can’t just start digging from the beginning blindly. This will only dig holes in the ground, and you will need to plow the ground in the coming year. Continue to plant crops.

Digging sweet potatoes may seem simple, but in fact it is all about skill.

Li Xiao has followed the adults to the fields since he was a child, and has already accumulated enough experience.

Tao Yaoyao followed behind Li Xiao, and after observing carefully for a while, she took a hoe and started to try it herself.

As soon as the hoe went down, Tao Yaoyao only heard a click, and the hoe had already penetrated deeply into the ground.

"Hahaha, sister Tao, are you digging sweet potatoes, or digging holes?"

"Strength and strength, master the strength!"

"Sister Tao, if you really can't do it, you can dig it with your hands. I used to dig it when I was a child, although it will be a bit dirty."

"Oh, I haven't done this job for many years. It seems to go through the screen and experience the feeling of being a child again."

The moment Tao Yaoyao swung the hoe, the few tourists in the live broadcast room were blown away.

Some of them have done digging sweet potatoes before, but this is the first time they have seen such a strong one, and they can't wait to gather all their strength on a hoe, as if strength is inexhaustible.

However, Tao Yaoyao concentrated on swinging the hoe, and couldn't see the barrage in the live broadcast room at all.

So after hearing the "click", I immediately realized that something was wrong.

Tao Yaoyao pulled out the hoe and threw it aside, then squatted down and tried to pull it out, the sweet potato was easily pulled out.

only……

The sweet potatoes she pulled out were not whole, and some remained in the ground.

What appeared in her hands was only the upper half.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Perhaps because he was afraid of Tao Yaoyao's embarrassment, Xiao Hei rushed over, waving his claws non-stop, helping Tao Yaoyao dig the lower part.

And Tao Yaoyao looked at the result in her hand, and was about to be depressed when she suddenly smelled a nice fragrance.

Following the smell, Tao Yaoyao immediately confirmed that the fragrance came from the broken sweet potato.

"Wow, what kind of sweet potato is this? It tastes so delicious. Even if it is raw, it smells very appetizing."

Tao Yaoyao held the sweet potato and asked suspiciously.

Li Xiao looked over and didn't blame Tao Yaoyao for digging the sweet potatoes in half. After all, it was the first time she did this kind of thing. It would be nice if she tried a few more times. At worst, she would keep the broken sweet potatoes for herself Eat, and give all the good ones to Xue Erye, took a deep breath, and said patiently: "Actually, these are very common sweet potatoes, but Xue Erye doesn't use pesticides all the year round, and also uses the clear spring on the mountain to irrigate, and then eat them again. Coupled with our unique climate here, the taste may be better than other places."

"I see!"

Tao Yaoyao nodded.

"Principal, don't be silly, don't all sweet potatoes taste exactly the same, is there any difference?"

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand upstairs. The vegetables and fruits grown in some areas really taste different from other places."

"That's right, it's like when I went to other cities in college, I also ate apples, but I just feel that the apples here are not as delicious as those in my hometown."

"One side of the landscape nourishes one side of the people, and the same is true for fruits and vegetables."

While the tourists in the live broadcast room were discussing, Xiao Hei had already helped Tao Yaoyao dig out the second half of the sweet potato.

Tao Yaoyao was also very motivated, she took the sweet potatoes and put them in the bamboo baskets.

At the same time, he didn't forget to tear off the sweet potato leaves and randomly guessed under his feet.

Seeing this scene, Li Xiao hurriedly said, "Sweet potato leaves are edible, don't waste them."

"Huh? Can you eat it?"

Tao Yaoyao looked bewildered.

"Of course!"

Li Xiao explained: "In addition to the leaves, you can also eat sweet potato leaves. Eating them not only has no side effects on the human body, but also has many health benefits for the body. It is a very healthy green vegetable.

Because sweet potato leaves are rich in mucus protein, vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin B, dietary fiber, calcium, iron and other nutrients.

But still eat a little less every day to prevent gastrointestinal discomfort.

And for zoo herbivores, it's delicious, too. "

"Sorry, I do not know."

Tao Yaoyao was very guilty, and hurriedly took the sweet potato leaves from under her feet, and piled them aside like Li Xiao.

Li Xiao smiled, not intending to blame Tao Yaoyao.

She grew up in the city, so it's normal not to know the common sense of these crops, just tell her yourself.

And Tao Yaoyao is already very good.

Many girls her age are unwilling to come to the countryside, and even less willing to do rough work. They prefer to stay in bars and nightclubs, relying on their appearance and figure to hook up with the rich second generation and try to marry into a wealthy family.

Some even sold their bodies directly!
