Chapter 556 Liu Yuemin
The next morning, not long after Zhang An got up, he found many people running to his door.
Just by looking at the outfits they were wearing, everyone knew they were here to fish.
"What's the matter, everyone, what's the matter?"
Zhang An looked at these guys and thought that what happened last night had spread.
“It’s okay, brother, your dog is so old. Come here and have a good relationship with it before we start fishing. If I have a pole and runs away, I will have the nerve to come and ask for help. Well, this is You can help feed our big dog brother the tribute I prepared for him.”
The person who spoke, Zhang An, still remembers that he was the guy standing with him that day.
Not only was he carrying his own luggage, he was also carrying a bag of braised pork and several meat buns and handed them to Zhang An.
The people with him also brought things, all of which were meat, and handed them to Zhang An one after another.
After Zhang An realized it, he was a little dumbfounded. After a long time, these people came to offer sacrifices to Xiaohu.
Looking at the various kinds of food in their hands, Zhang An could only say that these people were really willing to spend money.
Forget about the meat buns, the price of this braised chicken and braised pork is not cheap. Most people just have it once in a while, but in the end they buy it to feed their dogs. As expected, the fishing guy has a unique idea.
“Brothers, I feel sorry for our dog. Let’s save the food for lunch at the bar. Our dog never eats food given by others. If there is anything we can do to help, Just come here and say it, it doesn’t have to be like this.”
Zhang An didn’t doubt that they put anything in the food. After all, no one would do it openly. If something happened, they wouldn’t be able to escape. .
Little Tigers are not like the local dogs in other villages. They can still eat meat regularly. These meals are nothing to them, so Zhang An refused without thinking.
After everyone left, Zhang An sighed, feeling that it was indeed a bit too showy that day.
As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of being remembered. Xiaohu is now being remembered.
In the morning, Huang Erye drove his cattle back from the mountain and passed by the door of Zhang An's house.
Seeing little Siqi playing in the yard, she smiled and waved to him.
“Come quickly, let’s see what Grandpa Zu has here?”
As he spoke, he raised the bundle of twigs in his hand and waved them. There were some dream seeds on them.
The little guy is no longer a newbie who just came to this world. He recognizes what Mr. Huang is holding.
Because usually when his uncles or other children in the village go out to play and see Mengzi or delicious wild fruits, they will pick some and bring them back to make him happy.
So the little guy immediately ran towards Mr. Huang at the door, laughing, and held the bundle of Mengzi handed over by the old man in his arms.
"Xiao An, please remember to pick it off for him. Don't let him hold it all the time, so as not to get stuck by the branches."
Although Mr. Huang gave the thing to the little guy, he still felt in his heart Still uneasy, he told Zhang An.
“I know, Mr. Second, the fur of this cow is smooth and clean, and it is well-raised. It deserves to be driven to the mountains by you every day to let it go. It’s much better than other people’s corn-fed cows.”
Zhang An looked at the several oxen led by Mr. Huang and sighed, the calf they used to have had long since grown into a tall and big old ox, and then two more calves were born, and now they are all Already brought up.
As he spoke, Zhang An walked over and took away the bundle of dream seeds from Xiao Siqi's hand, which made the little guy a little unhappy. It wasn't until Zhang An picked them off one by one and fed them to him that he returned. Come back with a different face.
"Hey, there's nothing to do anyway. I'm just idle. I let them out to play in the wind every morning. I also go to the mountains to breathe fresh air. It's a pity that your dad is not going now. , and there is no one to keep me company.”
Mr. Huang is an old hunter for decades. He has become accustomed to activities in the mountains, so he naturally likes to go out for a walk.
Although he doesn't go into the mountains very much now, there is something special about going out to herd cattle.
"I'm afraid it won't work now. There are too many sheep in my house. They can't take care of them alone if they are let out. It would be bad if they eat the crops in other people's fields. After harvesting the crops, you can Come and call him again."
Zhang An smiled and said to Mr. Huang that his father really liked going out to herd sheep.
In the past, when there were few sheep at home, we went out almost every day, singing and harmonizing with Mr. Huang.
It’s just not possible now. Ever since everyone’s crops started growing in the fields, it goes without saying that Zhang Jianguo no longer herds sheep.
He couldn't stand it when dozens of sheep were driven out of his home. Although the family dogs helped, it only took a second for those animals to chew up other people's crops.
"By the way, Xiao An, I seemed to hear your dog barking for a while in the middle of the night last night. Is it okay?"
After chatting for a while, Mr. Huang again Asked Zhang An.
Once people get older, they become less sleepy at night. Their home is not far from here, so he heard the noise.
Zhang An's family has kept dogs for several years, but he has never heard any movement in Zhang An's family at night.
“It’s not a big deal, it’s just that a short-sighted person took a liking to our little tiger and was planning to do something evil in the middle of the night. However, he didn’t expect that there were so many dogs in my house. He just climbed over the wall last night and was killed by the little tiger. They took a few bites and fainted from the fright. Finally, I got up and called the police station, and they came and took the person away."
Seeing Mr. Huang's concern, Zhang An smiled and told the old man. Two explanations.
"Someone came into the village again to attack? Did you tell Jianwen and the others about this?"
When Mr. Huang heard this, he thought that another bandit came in just like before. The village came to commit a crime, and he immediately frowned.
They were okay with other things, but they were very hostile to bandits who stole cattle and horses.
Although the guy wanted to steal the dog last night, he didn’t join this industry.
“I haven’t said it yet, but don’t worry, it’s because I heard that someone liked the tiger cubs and wanted to buy them back at a high price to keep and play with. As a result, the guy had a wrong idea and wanted to steal the tiger cubs. I used to sell it to others and make a fortune."
Zhang An explained a few words about the cause and effect, and the old man felt relieved, otherwise he would have thought that another bandit was targeting the village.
During lunch, Wang Fang still felt uncomfortable. A thief came to the house last night. The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became.
"Xiao An, why don't you do some work on the wall of our house? You can even put in a few pieces of glass. We can't let people break it if they want."
After eating, Wang Fang still followed Zhang An said.
Although the guy didn't succeed last night, he had already climbed into his yard, which made Wang Fang still unable to let go.
"Okay, then I will bring back a bag of cement later and do it a little bit."
Zhang An thinks what his mother said makes sense, otherwise the walls of this courtyard would be bare Yes, it can indeed guard against gentlemen, but it cannot guard against villains.
Actually, it would be safer to put an electric grid around the fence, but there are too many animals in the house, so Huatou and his family are okay, they all stand on the roof.
Especially Gray Ball, who has now married and raised several little owls. At night, they either stand on the trees in the yard or on the fence, and they certainly cannot pull the electric fence.
After a little relief, Zhang An set off to the town to buy cement. But as soon as he left the house, he met Zhang Jianwen. Hearing that Zhang An wanted to use cement, he told him not to go.
Because there were still some leftover from the last time the village bought them to build a yard. Even though a large pool was rebuilt, they were still not used up. There were only a few packets left here and there.
Seeing that Zhang An didn't want much, just let him go to the village to get a bag.
This thing will easily harden and fail if left for a long time. It is a waste to leave it useless anyway.
Of course Zhang An happily agreed, which would save him a trip to town.
But in the end, regardless of whether Zhang Jianwen wanted it or not, he still took the money for a bag of cement and gave it to him. After all, it was an asset of the village.
After solving the problem of cement, Zhang An ran to Zhou Yang’s house again.
"Yangzi, how many beer bottles do you still have here? Get me a few."
The small restaurant in Zhou Yang's house is no longer just selling food as it used to be.
After the business grew, we also brought in beer and drinks.
Especially those fishing guys, they always have a bottle first every time they eat.
Although there are many students eating here, there is no need to worry.
Because today's student children don't have much money, they only have food money given by their families, which is far from enough to buy beer.
"Here, it's all here. You can get it yourself. Why does Uncle An want a beer bottle?"
Zhou Yang brought Zhang An to the small room of their house, and sure enough there was a bottle of beer. Piles of beer bottles.
Beer bottles are very rare these days. Someone specializes in recycling them. They can be sold for 20 cents each. They are treasures that all children love.
If they go to someone's house for dinner, they will always stare at the beer on the table. As soon as someone drinks it, they will take it away immediately. If it is later, it will be taken away by other kids.
After all, their families will not give them pocket money now, so they all rely on their own efforts.
“The fence of my house is too bare, so I’ll get a few and tie them around the top of the wall.”
Zhang An stuffed one with each finger, and took a total of about ten. After breaking it into pieces, it's almost enough.
Zhang An didn’t bother to ask Zhou Yang for the two yuan worth of things, and he definitely wouldn’t ask for them.
In this way, the father and son worked hard for a short afternoon, and finally covered the entire perimeter of their home with glass shards.
If anyone wants to sneak in over the wall again, he should first ask these glass shards if they agree.
At this time, someone came to the house again.
“Hello, my name is Liu Yuemin, and I’m here to say sorry to your family. Because that day I said I wanted to buy your dog, so someone came to your house to steal the dog.”
The person who came was a young man in his twenties, holding some gifts in his hand, and his tone of voice was a little apologetic.
“You are the friend who wants to buy our dog.”
Zhang An was originally confused about who this was, but after he reported his family name, he realized that he was the one who wanted to buy the dog. Xiaohu's people.
“It’s me, it’s me. I really like your dog when I see it, so I’m sorry because I said a few words and caused you some trouble. I’m sorry, but I hope you’ll accept it. "Exit."
It turns out that Liu Yuemin is from Hongyan Town. After the man who came to Zhang An's house to steal the dog last night was taken away by the police station, he was approached for questioning today.
Only then did he know that someone went to Zhang An's house to steal a dog and wanted to sell it to him, but he was caught.
He just liked Zhang An's little tiger and wanted to see if he could buy it with money, but he never thought of using some dirty means.
So after learning about this from the police station, he came to Zhang An's house to apologize.
Otherwise, he would be wronged if people misunderstood him as the mastermind behind the dog theft.
"So that's it, just say it, why bother?"
Zhang An was still a little unhappy at first. After all, there is no killing if there is no business. The whole thing is indeed because of this Man, it caused some trouble for the family.
But now her attitude is indeed very good, and she comes to apologize very sincerely, and the slightest feeling of resentment in Zhang An's heart disappears.
No matter what, after the misunderstanding was resolved, there were always customers coming to the door. Zhang An still invited him to sit down in the yard and make a cup of tea.
"Brother Zhang An, since you have so many dogs, why not just sell one to me. I really like these dogs of yours."
When Liu Yuemin saw Zhang There was a large row of dogs in the An family, and all of them were almost full-grown, and the look of envy in their eyes immediately showed.
“Haha, I’m really sorry. These dogs are little ones that have been raised at home for a long time. I have never planned to sell them, and they have already raised such big dogs. You will definitely take them back. You’re not familiar with it, right?”
Even when the family’s conditions were not good in the past, Zhang An would not sell the dog at home, let alone now.
"The puppies should be fine. If you have puppies, please sell me one. These dogs of yours are really rare and good dogs. They have more of a family temperament than other hunting dogs. I will definitely not let you down on the price." It’s a loss.”
Seeing that he couldn’t buy big dogs, Liu Yuemin decided to breed these big dogs. This was the main purpose of his visit.
"Don't get me wrong, I learned about it from Zheng Butcher's house. I originally wanted to buy it from him, but I just didn't make it."
See the look Zhang An looked at him Feeling strange, Liu Yuemin quickly explained.
Otherwise, who knows if Zhang An would have thought that he had been plotting against these dogs from a long time ago.
"I see, it's not impossible for puppies, but I guess I won't be able to catch up with these litters this year because they have already been reserved by some of my friends."
For puppies Zhang An didn't care, because there were several female dogs at home, and they would give birth to several litters of puppies a year.
There are enough dogs at home now, so he has no intention of keeping all the puppies.
There were also many villagers and other friends who came to ask for dogs, so Zhang An readily agreed to them.
It’s just that there are too many people asking for a dog. If Liu Yuemin really wants one, he will probably have to wait until next year.
"That's great. It doesn't matter how long you wait. Anyway, I'll ask Brother Zhang An to leave one for me when the time comes."
Liu Yuemin was very happy when he heard this. He originally thought that Zhang An would not let go so easily. .
