Siheyuan: Starting from the Pig Killer

Chapter 194 Guide Dog

"Can't see?"

When the group of people went upstairs, Xiang Yunduan and Tao Xiaoye supported Tao Xiaoye's grandfather on the left and right, but suddenly the thought of a guide dog flashed in his mind because of this scene.

In this era, the concept of guide dogs does not seem to exist in China, or no one has noticed it.

But the number of blind people may not be less than later. However, everyone has not even solved the real problem of food and clothing. Naturally, the level of care and attention given to the disabled is incomparable to that of later generations.

However, Xiang Yunduan feels that training guide dogs may become another important part of his future work.

In any case, there is a market demand for guide dogs.

Guide dogs, like police dogs, are very important working dog breeds. Compared with police dogs, guide dogs are more difficult to train. Even in later generations, the number of qualified guide dogs is still very rare. Compared with the large number of blind people who need the help of guide dogs, the number of guide dogs is so small that the proportion is almost negligible.

"I am currently breeding a new police dog breed. So, is it possible to consider breeding a guide dog breed that is suitable for the work of guide dogs?"

An idea came to Xiang Yunduan's mind.

Of course, the spirituality or IQ of a guide dog must be higher. If the IQ is too low, many problems faced during actual operation will not be solved.

Xiang Yunduan said casually.

This is not the time to talk about guide dogs. Moreover, this is just an idea for now. There is no need to say more. He will give it a try after he goes back. He will first train a guide dog and give it to Tao Xiao. Yes, grandpa, this is a little surprise.

Of course, for guide dogs, there is actually only one biggest need, and that is emotional stability.

Regarding the work content of guide dogs, their quality requirements for dog breeds are naturally different from those of police dogs. Not only are they different, but the difference is actually quite large.

"What are you thinking about?"

Not to mention the introduction of wolf blood, even for pastoral dogs, dogs with docile personalities must be selected. The kind of hounds used for hunting will definitely not work. It is best to be a guard dog.

As for guide dogs, there is also no specialized guide dog breed. Most foreign guide dogs are Labrador, Golden Retriever, and German Shepherd. Among them, Labradors are the largest in number. One of them is A very important reason is that Labrador's character is more gentle.

After all, he is a man with golden fingers. It is not difficult to cultivate suitable dog breeds according to work needs.

"Based on the pastoral dog, breed a dog specifically for the work of guiding the blind?" The more Xiang Yunduan thought about it, the more feasible the idea became.

Although even in later generations, there will be no specialized breed of guide dogs, this does not mean that he cannot have this idea. In fact, the more there is no such thing, the more he should do it. After all, the market demand is very huge.

In terms of the character of the pastoral dog, it is actually very suitable for the work requirements of a guide dog. Of course, some targeted breeding work must be carried out, but this does not trouble Xiang Yunduan.

Of course, high spirituality is an essential quality for all working dogs.

"Uncle, aunt, father, mother, let me introduce you!"

To breed a police dog breed, he needs to introduce the blood of wild wolves, but to breed a guide dog breed, it will definitely not work. After all, the wild genes in wolf blood are really unstable, especially for dogs that want to be fully integrated into human society. For guide dogs, uncontrollable factors are too scary.

The working environment of guide dogs is actually more complicated than that of police dogs. After all, police dogs are often commanded by people. They only need to complete tasks according to human requirements. But guide dogs are different. To some extent, It is said that guide dogs are commanding people, so many times, guide dogs need to make their own judgment on what to do next!
Therefore, a dog with an overly sensitive personality will definitely not be able to serve as a guide dog, and a dog with a high level of excitement will naturally not be qualified for this job.

In fact, strictly speaking, there is no special breed of police dog. Just like the famous German Shepherd, it was originally a shepherd dog. However, through subsequent selection and breeding work, it gradually achieved great success in the field of police dogs.

Xiang Yunduan opened the door, let all Tao family members into the box, and then quickly started to introduce them.

"It's nothing, just a little nervous!"

Just when Xiang Yunduan was lost in thought, Tao Xiaoye suddenly pushed him, interrupting his thoughts. It turned out that everyone had already arrived at the door of the box.

Police dogs need to have relatively good attack capabilities, which this guide dog does not need. Police dogs need strong excitement and sensitivity, which this guide dog does not need. In addition, police dogs also need a strong sense of smell. This guide dog There is no requirement. Guide dogs obviously need vision more than smell.

"Hahaha, my father-in-law and my mother-in-law, please forgive me for being late! Logically speaking, we live close by and you live far away, so we should arrive first, but we really shouldn't!"

After Xiang Yunduan's introduction, Tao Xingwei laughed and was the first to speak.

"It's not too late, it's not too late. We have just arrived. Today is the day when our two children get engaged. From now on, we will be a family. As the saying goes, one family does not talk about two families. Why are you so polite? No one is late and no one is early. Important!" Xiang Chuanzong also said with a smile.

Xiang Yunduan glanced at his father, and it could be seen that he was still a little nervous, but his performance at the moment was already very good.

"Sit! Sit down quickly!"

After the opening remarks, the two parties invited each other to sit down, and then each greeted the elders on both sides.

"Chicken with onion and soy sauce, roasted ginseng with Beijing onion, soft fried shrimp balls, kung pao chicken, three shredded fish maw soup with scallops, jellyfish in fish sauce, fish head soaked cake, roasted large yellow croaker with dried bean paste..."

Xiang Yunduan began to order.

Although the Qianmen Restaurant has only been open for a few years, I think the skills of the chefs inside are top-notch. The main dishes are very rich in variety and taste. I heard that there are masters of Sichuan cuisine, Huaiyang cuisine and Shandong cuisine, so the dishes are It also has the strengths of the three families.

It was Xiang Yunduan's first time to come to such a top-notch place, so he was naturally not polite. He was already prepared to bleed when he decided to eat here today.

Fortunately, with his current salary of more than 80 yuan a month, he can still afford to eat here. He doesn't come here to eat every day. There are a lot of people today, so he can order more special dishes and taste them. If he thinks they are delicious, You can also talk to Shazhu when you go back and see if you can copy it.

Tao Xingwei has been observing Xiang Yunduan. He only met the son-in-law chosen by his daughter a few days ago. He doesn't know exactly what this son-in-law is like.

However, Mei Zhihua kept mumbling in his ears, almost praising Xiang Yunduan to the heavens. Looking at Xiang Yunduan ordering the dishes, it was okay, at least he didn't have any petty arrogance.

Tao Xingwei didn't think Xiang Yunduan had been to a place like Qianmen Hotel before, but for the first time facing such a high-end place, Xiang Yunduan acted very calmly, or rather relaxed. Anyway, he didn't feel any nervousness at all. . You know, most people will definitely be timid when they first come to a place like this. From this alone, it can be seen that Xiang Yunduan has a big heart, and he is neither humble nor overbearing in his dealings, and he is relaxed and relaxed.

From Xiang Yunduan, Tao Xingwei even saw a natural temperament for leadership.

"Okay, okay, Xiao Xiang, today is a family banquet, and there are no outsiders. Let's just order a little. Don't order too much. Now... you have to cherish the food!" Tao Xingwei saw Xiang Yun nodded in one breath. After ordering more than a dozen dishes, he quickly opened his mouth to block the way.

"Okay, that's it. There are so many of us, so we won't waste it!" Xiang Yunduan nodded and said.

He didn't know that just by ordering food, he had already gained favor in Lao Taishan's heart.

How could he have such a big heart? Before time travel, he had experienced a lot of situations like this.

Speaking of which, in his memory, it was the first time he entered such a high-end place before time travel, but he showed a lot of timidity.

However, after time travel, perhaps because I have the knowledge of later generations, I have a sense of superiority from the bottom of my heart towards the people of this era, so I can appear very confident. It is precisely because of this kind of confidence that I slowly developed This state of being able to show ease and ease when facing anyone or anything.

While waiting for the food, Xiang Yunduan was originally afraid of being left in the cold. He thought of several topics in his mind and prepared to use them to control the situation. What he didn't expect was that the atmosphere was very harmonious.

I have to praise Lao Taishan. Tao Xingwei used to be the leader of a county in Hebei Province. He did not seem to have the style of being too high-minded. This can be seen from the topics he led on the spot. Maybe it is In order to take care of Xiang Yunduan's parents, we talked about things in the countryside, such as farming, building roads, building canals, etc.

Speaking of this, Xiang Yunduan's parents would naturally have something to say. After all, these are things they do every day.

Xiang Yunduan originally thought that he, Lao Taishan, was a typical intellectual leader and a division-level cadre. He should not know much about grassroots matters. But looking at the current situation, it is obvious that he is a bit "judging people by their appearance." No wonder Lao Taishan was transferred to Sijiu City and was promoted.

You must know that Sijiucheng is the capital city. It is rare for people to come to Beijing from outside and get promoted. This situation is rare. Many people can't make a lot of money.

It seems that Lao Taishan is not just someone above him, he is also very capable. Apart from other things, there are relatively few people who are down-to-earth and hard-working, have a good understanding of the grassroots, and are knowledgeable at the same time. Therefore, deputy director may not be Lao Taishan's limit.

"Oh, it's finally over, I'm so nervous!"

Everyone was happy with the meal, and when they returned to the courtyard, Liang Honghua breathed a long sigh of relief.

Although the in-laws are very polite, after all, they are quite different from each other, and their lives have no overlap at all. They are almost people from two different worlds, so it is normal for her not to adapt.

Xiang Yunduan felt a little distressed when he saw his mother like this. He took her hand and said, "Just this time, since you feel uncomfortable, just have less contact in the future. However, you have another fight this afternoon, so we have to start a fight." Come on!"

I will meet Yu Li’s family in the afternoon.

"Yeah, there's one more show!"

Liang Honghua nodded, and then sighed: "I still think country people are good! You two brothers have chosen your daughter-in-law in the city to ask if you are deliberately embarrassing me!"

She said this casually, but looking at Liang Honghua's expression, she knew that she was probably overjoyed.

Despite the fact that Liang Honghua is very nervous and reserved now, Xiang Yunduan can guarantee that as soon as she returns to the village, Liang Honghua will definitely be in a good mood. In less than ten days and a half, she probably won't be able to show off enough.

Nothing went wrong in the afternoon meeting, which went very smoothly.

Xiang Yunlong picked the place himself, and the quality was naturally not as good as the Qianmen Hotel at noon, but it was pretty good. Anyway, Yu Li's family was very satisfied.

Of course, no matter how high-end the place is, Xiang Yunlong can't afford it. After all, he pays for it himself, and his apprentice's salary is not high. Although he often gets subsidies for business trips, he usually spends a lot of money, so he doesn't save much. How much.

After finishing the two meetings and wedding arrangements, the Xiang family hurried back to the countryside. After all, the team had a lot of work, and a day out would take up a lot of things.

As for Xiang Yunduan's wedding time, the two parties discussed it and didn't ask any gentleman to tell them the time. They weren't interested in that now, so they just decided on the National Day, October 1st, which is definitely a good day.

On the other hand, the matter between Xiang Yunlong and Yu Li has not been decided yet, so we are going to wait.

……

On Monday, go to work as usual.

While Shen Yong and the others were doing their daily training, Xiang Yunduan wandered over to the kennel and observed it carefully.

Yesterday, guide dogs came to mind, so now he was preparing to select training partners.

Generally speaking, whether they are guide dogs or police dogs, they are trained from an early age. However, this condition is obviously not available now. It is still early to wait for the puppies to be born.

So Xiang Yunduan was going to choose an adult dog for training. In order to ensure the effect within a period of time and avoid accidents, Xiang Yunduan even decided to strengthen this guy who only wanted to become a guide dog.

Speaking of this, he now has a lot of black luck.

During the last trip to the northeast, the black luck had already been exhausted due to strengthening the wolverine, tiger, and black wolf king. After all, the tiger consumed a lot of black luck.

However, the effect is also obvious. During this period, the strengthened tiger contributed a lot of luck to him, including a lot of cyan luck, golden luck, and some black luck.

He found that the probability of this black luck appearing in wild animals is still very high, anyway, it is much higher than the probability of black luck appearing in the big fat pigs in the slaughterhouse.

No, after this period of time, I have accumulated a lot of black luck, which is more than enough to strengthen a guide dog.

After all, it is for Grandpa Tao Xiaoye, so it deserves to be strengthened.
