404. Haggle hard
Jacob made an apologetic gesture to Chen Song and Bruce, telling them to wait a little longer, he had to entertain the videographer first.
"You can go shopping first, I have a lot of maned lizards here, you can take a look at it, and you can take it later." Jacob whispered.
Chen Song saw a maned lion lizard with a golden back, this lizard was good, and when he turned his head to look, the maned lion lizard that was originally enjoying sunbathing actually waved its front paws at him, as if to say hello.
Seeing this, Chen Song walked over and looked at it through the glass.
At this time, the maned lion lizard also got up, and it ran behind the glass to stare at Chen Song, its eyes motionless, very stupid and cute.
Chen Song stretched out his finger and tapped twice on the glass, and the maned lion lizard stretched out its tongue and licked the place where he struck.
"It looks like it likes you a little. Jacob said after discovering this.
Chen Song didn't think so, he jokingly asked the maned lizard, "Do you like me?"
After asking this, of course, he didn't report the hope that the maned lion lizard would reply to him, after all, this little thing had never used the Enlightenment Talisman, so he must not understand human speech.
Unexpectedly, the reality surprised him, and the maned lion lizard actually nodded to him.
Jacob was also taken aback and asked, "Hey, Guri, do you want to follow this guy home?"
The maned lion lizard continued to nod, literally like a pounded garlic.
Chen Song was shocked and asked, "Oh my God, this guy has become a sperm? It's, it's, it's incredible." β
Jacob said, "Maybe it's your fate with it." β
Chen Song didn't believe this, but he didn't have anything else to do but believe in him, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
He looked at Bruce and asked, "Old Bu, what do you think about this?"
Bruce came over and teased the little lizard and said, "It's very good, if it's okay we can buy it." β
Hearing this, Jacob was energized, and he struck while the iron was hot: "It is a great thing to breed a maned lion lizard, because it is very itchy, and eats both meat and vegetables, and although I like to eat insects the most, I can also eat feed, and I can help you get this." β
Bruce said, "But aren't we looking at young lizards, and if I'm okay with my knowledge, it's best to raise maned lizards from young lizards, right?"
Jacob sneered, "Yes, that way it will be more intimate with people, and it will also develop some habits that the owner likes." β
The videographer stayed for a short time, took some more pictures, nodded to Jacob, and left.
Jacob went out to see him off, but Chen Song still stared at the little lizard and said, "This guy is very close to me." β
Bruce said, "Now it's related to everyone, do you think it nodded at you because it liked you? Actually, it's in estrus season, and when it's stimulated, it does it, and you knock on the glass window to stimulate it." β
Chen Songhu asked, "No, right?
Bruce smiled and said, "Just give it some food to help it out, it's a common little trick for pet stores to sell maned lions." β
If this is the case, then Chen Song is a little unhappy, is Jacob treating him as Kai Zizai?
But the two sides don't have anything to do with each other, it's just that they've met once, and it's normal for Jacob to be a little cautious.
Soon Jacob returned, and when he entered the house, he hurried to open the box that the photographer had taken earlier, and fished out a small maned lizard from it.
Chen Song asked, "Why don't you let them stay together?"
There was also a large-maned lion lizard inside the box, lazily basking in the sun under a UVB light bulb.
"You have to remember that maned lizards are aggressive and must be kept alone, especially when adult males are not allowed to stay together, otherwise they will be in a life-and-death struggle, and I put them together for pictures," Jacob said. β
"The same is true of the small-maned lion, which has a strong sense of hierarchy and is very oppressive, and the strong will eat most of their food, leaving some leftovers for the weak. There is also a sundeck that will also be the territory of the strong, and the weak will not be able to bask in the sun, and they will get sick after a long time. β
He took out the little lizard and put it on a piece of wood, Chen Song saw that it was well-behaved and honestly wanted to touch it, and said: "You are so pitiful, you have been lonely all your life." β
"Maned lion lizards are cold and haughty by nature, they don't careβbe careful!"
Seeing that Chen Song was going to touch the small-maned lion lizard, Jacob hurriedly warned him.
But this warning came a little late, and the originally docile and well-behaved small-maned lion lizard raised its head and bit Chen Song fiercely.
I have to say that the speed of this thing's attack is very fast, but its explosive power is far worse than Chen Songke, Chen Song realized that something was wrong and immediately reached back, and the small-maned lion lizard didn't bite.
Chen Song was surprised: "Lao Bu, are you sure you want Mrs. Emma to raise this thing? It's too fierce, right?"
Jacob quickly explained: "The juvenile maned lion lizard is like this, they are not actually fierce, but they are very insecure, if they grow up they will be tame, and the more they grow, the more docile they become. β
"Time will smooth out the edges and corners of its character. Bruce laughed.
Jacob nodded, "That's it." β
The maned lion lizard he had just taken out was very active and beautiful, and Bruce was very interested in this maned lionlizard.
Jacob's asking price is 150,000 Icelandic kroner, which is quite high, close to 10,000 yuan, but considering the price level in Iceland, the purchasing power of 150,000 kronor is definitely far worse than 10,000 yuan.
Chen Song helped the old man bargain: "This price is too high, 100,000 Icelandic kroner, we can only pay so much." β
Jacob said, "Okay. β
Chen Song was dumbfounded, was he asking for too much price?
Jacob continued, "For your sake, I'll sell this maned lion lizard and give it to Lao Bu, and I hope it's off to a good start, Vince, and you'll have to bring me more and more guests in the future." β
This is not a polite remark, as he gives Bruce a UVB light bulb that emits ultraviolet rays and a heating lamp, which are essential tools for the maned lion lizard to survive in Iceland.
The three favorite things that wild maned lizards do are eating, sleeping, and basking in the sun, which they rely on to digest food and replenish calcium to their bodies, and spend 12 hours a day in the sun.
Jacob used a small plastic box to pack the maned lizard, and the little thing was so strong that when it fell into Bruce's hands, it immediately raised its tail high, and puffed out its cheeks and raised its head to reveal its black chin, which meant that it was in a nervous mood to attack.
But after a while, it showed its timid nature, and seeing that it did not scare others, it quickly lay down, and then its body magically became flattened, and its width was more than doubled.
"It's intimidating us. Bruce laughed, "It's pretending to be big to scare us, cute little one." β
Chen Song looked at this little thing suspiciously and shook his head again and again, is this so cute?
