The circus is on the verge of bankruptcy and is about to be disbanded, and the former employees are gone, scattered, and there are few people left. Product = book/net Cui Bin's expression was quite lost.

"How could it be disbanded?" Chen Mo was a little surprised, in his impression, the various performances of the circus were very attractive, interesting and exciting, making the guests laugh out loud and nervous at times.

Cui Bin picked up the spoon, stirred the lard bibimbap a few times, raised his head and said to Chen Mo, "Chen Mo, don't you know, the work of the circus itself has become more and more difficult in the past few years, otherwise why would we, who have been working in the circus for decades, smash our own rice bowls?"

When Cui Bin spoke, Chen Mo obviously saw the silver threads mixed in the other party's black hair.

According to time calculation, Uncle Cui is now in his 40s, and he didn't expect so many gray hairs to appear.

"Uncle Cui, I think the circus is quite interesting, and now many scenic spots have specially invited good circuses to perform at the station, why can't they do it?" asked Yao Zheng, who was sitting at the next table.

Cui Bin looked at the table next door when he heard this, and was stunned when he saw Yao Zheng's big sunglasses.

But the old rivers and lakes are the old rivers and lakes after all, and after being in the circus for so long, I have never seen any cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, and I instantly adjusted my expression to normal.

Before he spoke, he sighed.

"Hey, don't you know, over the years, an animal protection association has suddenly popped up, accusing our circus of cruelty to animals by letting animals perform, but in fact, that is a stereotype for people who don't know about circus. In fact, the circus is not at all the same as animal cruelty. The more Cui Bin spoke, the louder he became, and his emotions seemed to be a little excited.

"Uncle Cui, take it easy and speak slowly. Liu Zongyuan, who had been watching from the sidelines, immediately stepped forward to comfort him.

After taking a sip of the roselle tea in the package, Cui Bin continued, but it seemed to be more like a confession, or a grievance in his stomach.

"If you think about it, the animals that have been trained with great difficulty are the lifeblood of the circus, and we treat animals more carefully than our own children, how can we abuse them, and some of the previous thrilling actions during the performance, such as the tiger drilling the fire ring, are now all gone. ”

As soon as Cui Bin's words were finished, Yao Zheng, who has always been curious and sincere, immediately asked, "But I've seen that when you let animals perform circus, you often hold a whip in your hand to reprimand them for completing their movements, is this considered animal cruelty?"

"That's a good question!" Cui Bin didn't think about it, and immediately affirmed Yao Zheng's question.

"Let me tell you all that the training was carried out when the animals were young, and now the tigers and lions in the circus are already stereotyped, and there is no need to train again, and there is no way to add new movements. ”

After Cui Bin finished saying this, Yao Zheng immediately issued a third consecutive question, "Then how were animals trained when they were young?"

Yao Zheng's three consecutive questions, each time pointed to the key point of the other party's answer, Chen Mo couldn't help but have a new understanding of Yao Zheng, who almost never left his face with sunglasses.

Cui Bin laughed at first, but said calmly, "Let me give you an example of a little black bear." Generally, when a black bear reaches two years old, it can be seen whether the bear has the potential to be trained. We do some testing at the zoo, and if there is a suitable black bear, it is transported directly from the zoo to the circus to start training. ”

Cui Bin took a sip of tea and continued, "When training black bears, the main thing is to use rewards to train, if the little black bear is obedient, our animal trainer will reward a piece of multigrain steamed buns, otherwise, it will be gently beaten or scared, definitely not the kind of beating that everyone thinks." And once the baby black bear performs well, in addition to the reward, the trainer has to pet the baby black bear. Think about it, how can we be willing to fight the little black bear with training potential that we have finally selected, if it is injured, we have to spend money to treat it and increase the cost, why bother?"

Hearing this, Yao Zheng stopped talking, and the other diners who were listening also showed affirmative expressions.

Chen Mo found that when Cui Bin spoke, everyone didn't seem to stop eating, but it was a bit like ancient times, eating and drinking, while listening to someone say a book, it was really interesting.

Yao Zheng stopped asking, but Liu Zongyuan suddenly spoke.

"Uncle Cui, what you said is quite interesting, why don't you tell everyone more interesting things about your circus, I have never been to the circus to watch a show. Liu Zongyuan said in a sincere tone.

Cui Bin nodded to Liu Zongyuan, looked at the onlookers again, and saw that everyone was very interested, so he nodded and agreed.

"Actually, training these little animals depends on patience, and getting along with them is like getting along with children. Tigers, in particular, are very intelligent, so if you don't pay attention to them, it won't listen. For example, if you want to train a baby tiger to sit upright, then you should start to lure them with food when they are small, and then use a stick to put the tiger's front paws on it, train the strength of the waist, and stand for a few seconds to feed a piece of meat. After a long time, after standing for a long time, the tiger will know what situation it will know when the owner orders it to stand, and it will be rewarded after standing. Like us in the circus, the old people have watched these little animals grow up, and they have been together for a long time, just like their own children, and they have deep feelings, so please help us talk in the future, our circus, there is absolutely no animal cruelty. Cui Bin folded his hands and bowed to everyone.

"But I saw on TV that in some circuses, the cages for the animals are very small, and it is very difficult to turn around. Some diners offered their own opinions.

Cui Bin shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Why don't we want the animals to live in a bigger cage, but the circus is only a little expensive, and the location itself is not large, and the places where our own people live are already considered snail dwellings, not to mention these animals." In fact, at the end of the circus performance, we take the animals out to play and frolic in the open space. ”

After speaking, Cui Bin sighed and said, "People are like this, how can things be worthy?"

After hearing Uncle Cui's words, Chen Mo couldn't help but look up at the second floor where he lived.

It seems that apart from a bed and a cabinet, there is nothing else to put in my bedroom.

I have a food house
