Chapter 320 Temporary Rescue Station
When his old man asked, Zhang An naturally couldn’t say that he was caught in space.
"I went to the mountains a few days ago and didn't catch it. Today I saw someone selling it. I guess it was hunted in the mountains, so I bought it."
When Zhang An went into the mountains before , I told my family that I was going to catch sheep.
Later, Zhang An got all the sheep into the space, so it was inconvenient to get them out.
"I guess it was caught in a net. There are no injuries on the body. It should be able to feed."
According to their son's character, Zhang Jianguo and Wang Fang felt that this sheep should be kept at home. .
"What are you raising? It just so happens that Chen Ze and the others are coming to kill deer tomorrow. They will be slaughtered together then. We will eat mutton during the Chinese New Year this year."
Zhang An originally tied these two sheep. How can one raise a knife?
And most of the ewes in the space are pregnant. After a few more months, the number will increase.
Zhang An planned to find a reason to go to the mountains at that time, and then get a few of them and raise them openly.
After hearing what his son said, Zhang Jianguo glanced at Zhang An unconsciously, wondering why his temperament had changed today.
Then the father and son brought the two sheep into a pen and locked them up, planning to send them on their way tomorrow.
"Is this a wild goat? Why does it look like a pony."
Su Ying looked at the two sheep and thought their appearance was funny.
The limbs are longer than ordinary sheep, and they also have a beard like Mr. Guan, which is really funny.
“This hair can only grow in winter, and it can only grow on rams after they grow to a certain size.”
Both of these two sheep are rams in the flock. Originally, He had already grown up, and then under the leadership of Tou Yang, he took refuge with Zhang An.
So during this period of time in space, I am carefree all day long, and there are delicious space spring water and green grass.
One by one, they have grown again, and now they are estimated to weigh eighty or ninety pounds.
But when Zhang An was chasing sheep in the mountains before, he found that the two of them were too cowardly.
After being caught up by Xiaohu, he surrendered without even a hint of resistance.
So Zhang An has been eyeing the two of them for a long time. Only warriors are welcome in the space, and cowards are waiting to be stabbed.
No, when Zhang An wanted to eat mutton during the Chinese New Year, the first thing he thought of was the two of them.
After unloading the sheep, Wang Fang noticed several pots and jars inside the carriage.
“These jars are beautifully made and burned well.”
Wang Fang couldn’t put it down especially the few Kowloon bottles Hou Liang gave him at the end.
I immediately boiled a large basin of boiling water and washed them all clean.
When the sweet wine in the pot is fermented, put it in it.
In rural areas, every woman who has become a household treasures these jars and jars.
Because they are so versatile, they can be used to pickle sauerkraut and pickled radish, as well as pickles and prunes.
Anyway, these jars are one of the indispensable tools in the homes of ordinary people nowadays.
Zhang An has seen many people in the village fight for a long time over a few jars when their families are separated.
Especially those earthen jars that look good and are easy to use. Everyone wants to get one more. After all, it costs money to buy a new one.
Zhang An returned to the backyard and found that the two black-necked cranes had not left yet.
Instead, he stood in Zhang An's fish pond, eating the lively fish in it leisurely.
Looking at it like this, these two treasures are dependent on Zhang An’s family.
"Okay, I can't take care of you, then I'll find someone who can take care of you."
Zhang An shook his head and went back to the house to call Zhu Yuliang.
Eating some fish at home is a trivial matter, but people come and go in this village, and Zhang An’s family is still at the entrance of the village.
Zhang An, a person in the village, is not worried, but people outside are not sure.
If someone with good intentions comes one day and sees it, report it to him and it will be a big deal.
"Hello, hello."
Probably still at work, Zhu Yuliang's voice on the phone was a bit serious.
"Ju Zhu, I, Zhang An, am still at work."
"Hey, Zhang An, long time no see, what's going on?"
< br>"It's like this. There are two guys with one guarantee in my yard. I really can't drive them away. Why don't you guys come and arrest them?"
Hearing Zhang An's rogue tone, Zhu Yu Liang laughed instead.
But then I heard that he was a guy on the first guarantee list, and Lao Zhu became normal.
Then Zhang An told Lao Zhu everything from beginning to end, and Lao Zhu suddenly lost his voice.
"Hey, Lao Zhu, Director Zhu, I, Uncle Zhu, speak up. I'm very panicked if you don't speak."
"Why are you panicking? You're not hunting or arresting with any malicious intent." "I'm not afraid that someone will report me, but I won't be able to explain it clearly."
Zhang Anke would risk his life on someone's mouth. This society is still too sinister, so he communicated with Zhu Yuliang first.
"Let's see. Although we haven't given the notice yet, we had a meeting some time ago and your two deer are probably going to be hung up too."
"Zhu Ju, there are four of them. Two more cubs were born this year.”
“Well, it seems that you took good care of me, you gave birth to the cubs so quickly.”
Then Zhu Yuliang paused. He was smoking, taking a deep breath of air, and then spoke again.
“Well, since there are so many animals there and it’s so close to the mountains, let’s just put up a sign of ‘Wild Animal Temporary Rescue Station’ in the name of the county, so that you don’t have to worry about anything happening in the future. Asked. "
As for whether Zhang An will use this reputation to forcibly keep those listed protected animals in captivity.
Zhu Yuliang didn't believe it at all. After being together for such a long time, everything in Zhang An's house was left free to roam.
As for captive breeding, don’t be ridiculous. Zhang An seems to be diligent, but in fact he is lazier than anyone else. It is simply unrealistic for him to do this.
Moreover, Zhu Yuliang has been thinking about developing this brand for Zhang An for a long time, and has been thinking about when to mention it to Zhang An.
After all, this guy is incredibly lazy. The last time I gave him a job with a staff, he didn’t even look at it.
Because he discovered that Zhang An was very good at raising and rescuing animals.
No matter what animal it is, if this person keeps it for two days, they will be willing to get close to it.
Last time there was a dying giant salamander, and they all thought there was no hope, but after Zhang An spent some time, things improved.
So he has been observing for more than half a year, wanting to find out.
But more than half a year has passed, and I still haven’t discovered the reason, so I simply didn’t pay attention to it.
This time he thought about it and told Zhang An about the listing. It would be easier to find Zhang An in the future.
After all, he is now on a higher level, and the wild animals in the county are all under his control.
If Zhang An can be dealt with, he may have a much easier time in the future.
"Of course, there must be funds here, and you don't need to apply." Zhu Yuliang added, fearing that Zhang An would refuse.
Due to local environmental reasons, the money collected from the finance every year cannot be spent much.
Leave it alone, Zhu Yuliang thought of using it to build a good relationship with Zhang An.
Although Zhang An is not the one who is short of that little money, whether you give it or not and taking the initiative to give it are two different things.
“It’s not Lao Zhu, why didn’t I hear what you said? I was so confused.”
What Zhang An understood was that the county wanted to hang up a Temporary aid station sign.
Then if there is no place to put any animals in the future, we will send them to him.
Although he has some collecting habits, he doesn't want everything.
It's just like falling in love. He didn't talk about it himself, and he didn't want to rush into it.
"That's not what I meant. I asked you before if you would like to work in our department. You told me you would be free in the countryside."
"Now let's hang a sign at your place. , it’s like you work from home, and you don’t need to come to the city at ordinary times.”
“But if there are any animals here that need help, such as treatment, you can take action at that time. "
Lao Zhu explained for a long time, and finally Tu Qiong saw it, and Zhang An also understood the meaning.
"This is no problem, but my place is not big, so don't send me here to raise him."
Zhang An is still worried that Zhu Yuliang will do everything because of his good conditions. Send it over.
After all, those rescue stations in other places are basically equivalent to zoos.
And not only do you have to take good care of the animals, you also have to take care of the people above.
With space in hand, all animals must be obedient in the end, but the people above should forget it.
“Don’t worry, Lao Zhu, I wouldn’t bother you normally.”
Hearing Zhang An’s promise, Lao Zhu repeatedly promised that he would be protected from now on, saying Maybe Lao Zhu can rise even higher.
“By the way, prepare some of your tea leaves for me. I’ll come and get them when I’m off work the day after tomorrow. I’ll also get some chickens, ducks and fish. My daughter likes to eat your fish.”
< br>The old guy doesn't care much about other things in Zhang An's house, but he cares about the tea leaves so much that he talks every time he calls.
"Then you don't have to come all the way. If you're celebrating the New Year, just tell me if you need anything and I'll deliver it to you that day."
"No need, I'm celebrating the New Year and I'll let you run away. It’s not appropriate to go there alone, so I’ll do it myself.”
“It’s okay. I’m going to pick up my father-in-law and my mother-in-law to celebrate the New Year together. I’ll take you there on the way to save you the trip. "
This is what Zhu Yuliang hates to hear the most. He regrets it very much now.
When I met Zhang An before, this guy hadn't even started dating yet, but now he's married.
If I had known earlier, I would have introduced Zhang An to my daughter. Maybe he would be Zhang An’s father-in-law now.
If that were the case, wouldn’t it be Zhang An’s current filial piety to him?
He was always dreaming that if Zhang An became his son-in-law, he would not be able to honor him with all the fine wine, tea and whatever else he had at home.
Having been with Zhang An for so long, he is famous for his filial piety. Who wouldn’t like such a son-in-law?
As a result, now that Zhang An is married, his father-in-law is not him, and he still has to worry about his daughter finding a partner all day long.
"Okay, I'll call home and ask, and I'll get back to you later."
Not ten minutes after hanging up the phone, Zhu Yuliang called again.
He just called home, asked his daughter and wife for their opinions, and finalized the purchase order at Zhang An's house.
Coming out of the house, Zhang An looked at the two black-necked cranes and gave up completely.
Zhu Yuliang will definitely not come to arrest him. It seems that the two of them are really going to settle here.
Zhang An will not think that hibernation is over and they will fly away on their own.
It’s so cold now that I haven’t left. When the temperature rises in the future, I won’t even leave.
At night, Zhang An got into the study room, used the excuse of reading, closed the door and ran into the space.
At home, Wang Fang and Su Ying knew that Zhang An was very involved in reading, so they would not disturb him unless there was anything special.
Once in the space, Zhang An immediately took out the jar soaked in water.
When Zhang An put the wine jar in today, he had already cleaned it several times.
Because he was worried about not washing it thoroughly, Zhang An kept soaking in the water afterwards.
Now Zhang An took it out and washed it twice and it was clean.
Then wipe it clean with the dry towel you brought in, and the jar can be used to make fruit wine.
For the wine-making materials, Zhang An chose bayberries and cherries in the space. They are both juicy and have high sugar content, so they are very suitable for making fruit wine.
According to the recipe Huang Erye gave him, after selecting the materials used to make wine, they need to be cleaned and wiped dry.
Because they are often exposed to the wild, there are many things on the surface that can affect fermentation.
But there is no such problem with bayberries and cherries that grow in the space. Zhang An does not wash them when he eats them.
So after choosing the fruit, Zhang An put it in the jar and started to pound it.
Mashing is to speed up the fermentation. Although the whole fruit can also be fermented, the speed will definitely be very slow.
Even in space, Zhang An wanted to brew the wine quickly. After all, he wanted to have a few sips in time for the Chinese New Year.
This was the first time I tried it. Zhang An didn’t plan to brew much, so he prepared more than ninety kilograms of cherries and bayberries each.
Those two large 100-pound wine vats were specially used by Zhang An as fermentation vats.
I have to say that working in space is easy, and I smashed so many cherries and bayberries in just a few seconds.
If you do it outside, it will take a lot of time to process hundreds of pounds of cherries.
Not only that, Zhang An also easily drained out the core of the fruit.
Usually the fruit wine brewed outside will have a sour taste, and most of the fruit stones will also ferment, which affects the taste.
So Zhang An can easily filter out the fruit cores, and Zhang An will definitely not let them go.
After everything was done, Zhang An added the prepared rock sugar and yeast into the tank.
In both large vats, Zhang An only added a few kilograms of rock sugar, not too much.
According to the recipe, different materials have different proportions of sugar added.
Most of them are 37 or 28, which depends on the material selection.
If there is too little sugar, it will greatly affect the fermentation process and subsequent taste.
But the cherries and bayberries in the space are many times higher than those outside, so there is no need to add so much sugar.
Zhang An originally thought that space spring water has so many magical effects, so he might as well add some to it.
But after completing the preparations, he found that there was less than one-fifth of the space left in the two large tanks.
When making wine, the tank still needs to ferment, so it cannot be full.
This is why when Zhang An was picking fruit just now, he picked about ten kilograms less.
