Chapter 105 The Not-So-Optimistic Status Quo

Just when Tia didn't know how to answer Chaxi's weird question, Li Sheng came back.In each of his hands he held an animal like the little one.

When Chaxi saw it, his eyes lit up, he jumped up from the ground and ran towards him, still yelling: "Li, what is it, is it also a puppy? Give it to me, give it to me."

Li Sheng had no choice but to put one of them into her arms, watched her hold it carefully, and said, "It's still very small. It's not long since it was born, so you can't hug it too hard."

"Yeah, Chaxi will hug him gently." Chaxi didn't even look at him, and was completely attracted by the soft little thing in his arms. "Li, what kind of dog is this?"

Li Sheng didn't know either: "It's too small, and I can't recognize it." This is of course an excuse.

According to his memory, dogs are in the wild, either jackals or wolves. In addition, there are hyenas in Africa and wild dogs in Australia. I really don't know about the others.

Moreover, the paws of this kind of puppy also have small fleshy membranes, which look like webs.He had never heard of it.But he couldn't say he was ignorant.

Perhaps seeing that Li Sheng was fine with holding it, Tia picked up the one on the ground as well.She came over and asked, "Li, how many small animals are these?"

"Their mother may have been bitten by another animal and gave birth to them hiding in the grass. But she is dead."

Tia was taken aback, touched the little animals wriggling in her arms with pity, and asked, "Then shall we raise them?"

Li Sheng said: "Since their mother tried their best to give birth to them, they are considered lucky. Let's take them home first to see if they can be raised. If they can be raised, we can keep them. If not, we can only send them to animal protection agencies."

The three got back into the car, and the three animals were also placed in the back seat, while the two girls watched.Li Sheng was driving ahead.But Pudding was lying on the passenger seat with his eyes closed and dozed off.Li Sheng glanced at it, wondering if he was thinking too much.Pudding's intelligence seems to have developed even higher than that of the Black Faced God.This time its performance proves that it has completely given up its wildness, or completely controlled the influence of appetite.

You know, for animals like wild cats, for such palatable animals, they might have been eaten long ago, and even if they couldn't finish eating, they would kill them and bury them in one place.But it unexpectedly came back with one unscathed, and took itself to find the other two.

Could it be the effect of being communicated by his energy field?If so, to what extent would it enhance intelligence?
Li Sheng had some expectations in his heart, but also some concerns.It seems that in the future it will not be easy to communicate with animals using energy fields.

He drove the car all the way to the management area of ​​the plain area, and at this time, the sun had basically fallen below the treetops, and the howler monkeys could still be faintly heard.

When he entered the management area, he happened to see Ruhr doing stretching exercises slowly in the open space outside the medical clinic.He stopped the car, lowered the window and said with a smile, "Mr. Ruhr, why aren't you off work yet?"

"It's already off work." Doctor Ruhr straightened his waist and said. "Get a little exercise before it's mealtime."

Chaxi asked Li Sheng to lower the window of the rear seat as well.When the window was lowered, she stood on the back seat and leaned out of the window: "Grandpa Ruhr, we found a few puppies. There are three of them! One for me, one for Li, and sister Tia also has one." one."

At this moment, Li Sheng remembered that Ruhr had lived in this forest all his life. Although he lived in the city, he should know more about the animals here.

He smiled and said, "Mr. Rule, do you know that in the Amazon jungle, there is an animal that looks like a dog and has small webbed feet?"

That's all he asked, without much confidence that Mr. Rule really knew.Regardless of Ruhr, he really gave him an answer: "You caught the serval? Can you let me see it?"

"Serval dog?" This sounds like a dog. "of course can."

Dr. Rule saw the three animals whose eyes were still open and looked at their feet.A little uncertain: "As far as I know, the only dog ​​with webs is the serval. But the photos I have seen are all adult dogs, so small, I really can't be sure."

Li Sheng probably believed in his heart that these three dogs were probably servals. They were found in the Amazon, and they were the only webbed dogs in the world. They should be unmistakable.As for whether it is true or not, he will be able to confirm it by going back to the Internet and checking it.He had seen the dead mother of these three little things.

Saying goodbye to Dr. Ruhr who was exercising, Li Sheng continued to drive towards the garage of his wooden villa.I have to say that there are quite a few coincidences today.Not far away, he met Thomas who was in a hurry on the road.

He stopped the car and poked his head through the open window: "Thomas, are you back?"

"Hi, Lee. Long time no see!" Thomas had already seen his car, and he stopped before it stopped.

"Thomas sorghum." The little thing like Chaxi is everywhere. "We have three very cute puppies."

"Really, can I have a look?" Chashi is a small pistachio in the management area of ​​the farm.Everyone loves her.

Chaxi retracted and held a small animal carefully, and leaned out from the car window: "Look, isn't it cute. I haven't opened my eyes yet."

Thomas was very satisfied with Chaxi's flaunting little thoughts and returned the little animal to Little Things. After greeting Tia in the car, he said to Li Sheng: "Li, how are you doing in the tribe?"

Li Sheng thought of sleeping with a little girl in his arms every day, and it was indescribably awkward.But he really couldn't say that: "It's good." He knew what Thomas wanted to ask. "I talked to Tuclolo about the tour, but he's still thinking about it. I think they're a bit resistant to it."

"That's a shame," Thomas said, a little disappointed.

Li Sheng comforted, "But although they didn't agree, they didn't refuse either."

Thomas just smiled and changed the subject: "This time I went to the University of Manaus and invited a few students of botany and zoology. They are quite interested in being a jungle guide. I think the problem of the tour guide has been resolved. Alright. Now can we start promoting it?"

Li Sheng thought for a while and said, "If you think you're ready, let's start. However, safety must be ensured. However, the business of tourism may take a long time to prepare. Will the tour guides have the patience to wait?"

Thomas smiled and said, "Don't worry, the publicity is just the preliminary preparations. It will take some time to start the business. During this time, I will personally train those tour guides. In addition, Babur and Zhang also agreed to participate in each The regiment arranges security personnel for protection. As for the tour guides, if they can’t wait, then hire someone else. Anyway, we have time, don’t we?”

"Then I won't ask too much about this matter. You haven't eaten yet."

"Speaking of eating, I almost forgot one thing," Thomas said with a smile. "Li, Manaus is going to hold the first food festival, inviting food from all over the world to participate. It is still the registration period. I think Silent Farm should participate." The farm is now being maliciously criticized by people. The impact is far-reaching.But the opponent is the TV media, and they have no way to compete with them now.He felt that he could only do as many positive things as possible to let him know more about a real silent farm.

Manaus is the capital of the Amazon state, and Silent Farm is located on the northwest border of the state of Para, not too far away, but they belong to two states. If Thomas hadn't mentioned this food festival, Li Sheng really wouldn't have known about it.

Just for a food festival?Li Sheng considered the benefits.

But Thomas has already started to help him analyze: "There will definitely be many foreign tourists in the food festival. The pork fed with special feed in the pasture tastes very good. If you participate in the food festival, it will be very good for the animal breeding trails on our farm. We can get some beef by the way. Li, your cooking skills are great, I want to eat your dishes, they will remember our farm."

So to say.The benefits of participating seem to be quite small.In particular, the marketing problem, which is now most crucial to the farm, may be able to find some solution.

Li Sheng nodded and said, "When will their food festival be held?"

"No.20 next month. Now accepting online registration."

"I see. I'll sign up when I get back." There's still more than a month left, so there shouldn't be any problem with the time.

"Where are you going? Are you looking for Anthony?" Thomas glanced at Chashi and asked.

"Send Chashi home."

"Li, I don't have sweet cakes at home." Chaxi seemed to have remembered something, with a grievance on his face.

Only then did Li Sheng remember what he had promised her just now.But it would take at least 20 minutes to go back to the villa in the hilly area, so he had to beg for mercy and said, "Can I bring you here tomorrow morning?"

Chaxi thought for a while, then stretched out three chubby fingers: "Then I want to eat three pieces!"

"Okay, tomorrow I will send three sweet cakes to Chaxi."

Seeing him like this, Thomas smiled and said, "Then I'll go back first."

Sent Chasi home.Li Sheng also drove Tia back to the villa in the hilly area.Tia has long stopped studying with Chashi, she has her own unique way of studying.What Anthony taught Chashi hadn't helped her much.

After dinner, Tia watched Li Sheng go to the study, so she sat in the living room and watched TV, which was still the education channel.

Li Sheng checked some information on the Internet.The only dog ​​with webbed feet is the serval.And the only few photos of serval dogs on the Internet can also prove that the dead mothers of the three small animals were serval dogs. Old Ruhr was right.Manaus is indeed accepting online registration for the food festival to be held.

He applied online again to participate in the Manaus Food Festival.As for what kind of dishes he will be cooking at the food festival, he hasn't decided yet.There is still plenty of time.

Opening his mailbox, he found another email from Prince Ali.Above are some words of greeting, and there is also a picture.The picture is the transfer record.

This is the sixth remittance - he can get all the balance of Sands within a year, and Prince Ali has paid one-third of it so far.

It was Prince Ali's remittances that gave Li Sheng the confidence to support the farm's long-term expenses.

Silent Farm does not have much expenditure for the time being, but there is a considerable expense, that is, salary. The salary of nearly 200 people in Silent Farm requires tens of millions of reais every year.An average of R$ 160 million per week is required.It is a very large expenditure compared to ordinary people.

He hardly pays personal income tax because he hardly makes any money.The land tax has indeed been avoided, because farmers only need to pay a tax on their farms, and do not have to pay other taxes.Now Silent Farm is not registered as a business, he is still a farmer.

In general, it is said that Silent Farm has been in a state of serious loss.He is now running a money-losing business.
