Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Magnificent Bird of Bliss

Zhang Yun began to think of ways to supplement the parrot's nutrition. Eggs, millet, and other nutrients are all used. So that the parrot has enough nutrients to hatch.

Just two days later, Visas took him the phone, Zhang Yun saw that it was an unfamiliar number, and he called from nowhere, and thought it was a sales scam or something, so he hung up directly. Who knew that the other party would not give up, and called him again. Zhang Yun had no choice but to connect.

The other party was very polite. "Hello, is it Mr. Zhang Yun? We apologize for disturbing the inconvenienced places. ”

"Yes, may I ask who you are?"

"I am a friend of Aubrey's, Theresa Shelley, from whom I heard about your contribution to the search for night parrots. I'm amazed, I've heard that as long as it's a bird, you have a certain understanding, don't you? ”

Since it was introduced by Aubrey, Zhang Yun was a lot more polite. Although the contact time was not very long, he admired Aubrey as an honest and kind professor. Maybe he has a certain temper, but he really has nothing to say about his own profession.

"It's not as exaggerated as he said, may I ask you what's the matter."

Theresa told him why. Theresa is also an expert in ornithology and is a member of the World Organization for the Protection of the Animals and Nature. She is now at the XN Zoo, where there are a few gorgeous birds of paradise, and I don't know what is wrong, I have been eating or drinking, and I am gradually losing weight. The zoo has brought together several experts, but there has been no way.

I heard about Zhang Yun from Aubrey, and Theresa wanted to ask him for help.

The Magnificent Bird of Bliss, also known as the Magnificent Wind Bird, is a beautiful ornamental bird. There are stamens that spread out and a wide shawl that becomes a head fan.

Peacock open screen, it's beautiful! But compared to the gorgeous bird of paradise, it is not enough to see. It is a wonderful creation of nature.

Everyone who saw it couldn't help but marvel, they didn't expect that there were such gorgeous birds in the world.

Zhang Yun didn't agree. The last time Adams was here, it helped him a lot. Zhang Yun pointed out a lot of shortcomings of the farm.

These shortcomings may not be anything to Zhang Yun who has the Beast Control Technique, as long as he has the Beast Control Technique, it is not a problem. It's just a big deal to spend a little more energy.

But on the one hand, he breeds parrots to make money, but the original intention is to make money with the mentality of raising birds, if it is very energy-consuming, it will really become work.

On the contrary, it is better to correct the shortcomings, so that the farm can operate normally even if it is separated from him. This is what a farm should look like, and if he is alone, it is nothing.

And Adams is just a student, no comparison with an expert professor. If he could help Theresa solve the problem of the Magnificent Bird of Paradise. The other party will definitely give him advice and help him point out the problems of the farm.

But who knew that the two had a disagreement. Professor Theresa meant to ask Zhang Yun to go to XN Zoo and solve the problem of the Magnificent Bird of Paradise there. Zhang Yun asked Theresa to bring the Bird of Paradise over, and he solved the problem of the gorgeous Bird of Paradise on the farm.

The two sides were in a stalemate for a long time, and Zhang Yun was not ready to let go. For the gorgeous bird of paradise, he has the attitude that if he can help, he will help, and if he doesn't help, there is nothing. I'm not begging for others. Why rush over in person? Several specialists could not solve it, and even if he was confident, the time aspect was not guaranteed.

Who would spend a long time for such a thing, and it's not sure what the income is. In the end, Theresa lost to Zhang Yun and said that she would ask and apply to take the gorgeous bird of paradise out. She's just a professor from the zoo, and it's hard to do that kind of thing.

And Theresa also asked Zhang Yun to send the address, and if he agreed, he would bring the gorgeous bird of paradise to him.

Then Zhang Yun didn't care anymore, he still had something to do, after these years of cultivation, many parrots had already laid eggs and even hatched. When he first saw the newly hatched parrots, Zhang Yun was pleasantly surprised.

The newly hatched baby parrot is smaller than the thumb belly, and this is still a small and medium-sized system monk parrot, if it is the smallest budgie parrot is even smaller. Seeing him open the door to check, the female parrot that was hatching was very nervous, and she kept staring at him nervously, afraid that Zhang Yun would hurt her child.

Fortunately, as Zhang Yun entered the mana, the female parrot slowly calmed down. This is still good, if it were someone else, I would have been scared a long time ago, the timid would have escaped from the hatching box, and the strong mother would rush up to attack Zhang Yun desperately for the sake of the child. But no matter what, it will seriously affect the reproductive efficiency, and some will even abandon the nest directly and not hatch and feed the parrots.

Newborn parrots have large heads, unopened eyes, and tiny fluff on their bodies. Both eyes are also bulging high, and it will only return to normal after a few days when the body grows rapidly.

At the same time, the small parrot's sac is also very thin, and a large bag can be puffed up by feeding a little food. The transparent bag can even see the food inside.

The baby parrot is not yet able to move, and its calves can only move around in the breeding box.

Looking at these cute elves, Zhang Yun was very proud, these were all little guys who hatched under his own feeding. At this moment, Zhang Yun completely forgot that apart from inputting mana, he actually didn't care much about these parrots at all. All the feeding is done by Little Jack.

Now that the baby parrot has been born, Zhang Yun began to prepare for the feeding work. Even small parrots brought up by adults must be taken out when they are ten days old and ready to be artificially fed.

On the one hand, for the sake of the parrot's kinship, they are only taken out at a very young age, and when the parrot grows up, they will get close to humans and run to people to play. Otherwise, when the adult birds bring them up, they are no different from wild birds, and they will be afraid when they see people.

The other aspect is to wear ankle rings to identify when each parrot was born and whether they are wild birds or not. Closed-mouth ankle rings can only be worn when the parrot is very small, the claws have not yet grown, and the muscles and bones are soft. When it's older, you can't wear it at all.

Many people will use this to identify whether a parrot is a wild bird, and those with closed ankle rings are artificially raised parrots, and those without closed ankle rings are wild birds.

Of course, before this, Zhang Yun first took out a few nests of budgies and prepared to feed them first. Wait until the budgies are ripe, and then pull out the birds.

Anyway, the monks and the golden sun hatched later than the budgies. The monk parrot will have to wait a while before it can be taken out.

Zhang Yun raised too much, even if it was ten incubators, it was not enough for him. So decided to go straight to the air conditioner. Clean up a house and install air conditioning. The whole house is used as an incubator for nestlings.

He had already bought the air conditioner and was waiting to be installed. But standing in the room used to place the chicks, Zhang Yun just wanted to scold. Mother, I was cheated.

He cleaned up the room and installed the air conditioner, ready to try the mobile air conditioner, only to find out what is wrong with it.

Mobile air conditioning does have many advantages, being able to move freely, and you can put it in that room wherever you want. It also has the same power as the air conditioner, which is more power-efficient than other equipment.

But why has it not been promoted, in fact, there are still many shortcomings.

Mobile air conditioners have an exhaust pipe. According to the promoter, as long as the exhaust pipe is placed behind the air conditioner, it will only take a minute or two before and after to activate the air conditioner.

Zhang Yun opened the air conditioner package, took out the exhaust pipe, and first connected it to the corresponding position of the air conditioner. But when looking for the location of the exhaust pipe outlet nozzle, I made a mistake: when buying the air conditioner, the promoter said that there is no need to punch holes in the wall or dig holes in the glass, and the exhaust pipe outlet nozzle can be stuck on the window and door. It's easy to use......

However, after snapping the round exhaust pipe between the window bezel and the sash. Zhang Yun found that the windows could not be closed tightly, and the wind outside, and the exhaust heat poured back. Whoever put a thick pipe on the window didn't close it tightly.

There was no choice but to cut a piece of cardboard to the size of the window orifice and fix it on the window with scotch tape. After some busyness, Zhang Yun found that he looked very ugly, but fortunately, there were curtains to cover it after installation!

Then there was another problem. Mobile air conditioners have different air duct circulation designs from air conditioners.

The air volume circulation of ordinary air conditioners is aimed at indoor air circulation, while mobile air conditioners reduce the indoor air temperature while inhaling fresh outdoor air to ensure the exchange of indoor air and prevent the occurrence of "air conditioning disease". What a design.

The problem is that there is one more downside to this design. This kind of fresh air duct design results in the indoor temperature not dropping very low. Normally, when the outside is 36°C, the indoor temperature is about 28°C, and it can reach about 25°C locally.

If you can't understand it, imagine the air conditioning of your car. One of the buttons controls the internal circulation and the external air intake. If you press the internal circulation of the car, the temperature will drop gradually, and the air intake outside the car will not drop much even if you adjust the air conditioner to the maximum.

Mobile air conditioning is a principle.

In addition, because the mobile air conditioner is an integrated air conditioner, the compressor and fan are in it, so the noise is louder than that of ordinary air conditioners. The sound was so buzzing that ordinary people couldn't stand it.

There was also a problem, after using it for a while, the air conditioner suddenly stopped on its own. Zhang Yun plugged and unplugged the power supply, and repeated switching on and off was to no avail. Call the after-sales service, and the other party asks to check the built-in water tank, and if the water is full, it is okay to pour the water out.

Zhang Yun realized that mobile air conditioners have condensate like ordinary air conditioners, but ordinary air conditioners discharge the condensate produced to the outdoors in time, while mobile air conditioners store them in the water tank. The mobile air conditioner has a pre-protection effect, and the water tank will stop running as soon as it is full.

If he didn't drain the water in time, it was likely to cause the air conditioner to stop and the temperature in the room to drop. If it is not detected in time, it is even possible to freeze to death.

Under all these shortcomings, it is no wonder that mobile air conditioning has not been promoted. The average person really can't stand the shortcomings.

Fortunately, the wind blown by the mobile air conditioner is very cool, and you can directly adjust the air outlet to the front direct blowing state in summer, ensuring that you will be very cool on hot days.

Zhang Yun had no choice but to go to the town to buy an air conditioner and a humidifier to ensure the humidity in the room.

When everything is ready, transfer the budgies in. At this time, the budgie has just opened its eyes, and its actions are not neat, and it is very cute. When they heard the movement, they all tilted their heads and opened their mouths wide to ask for food.

Zhang Yun was ready to feed. In one corner of the room, there were dozens of barrels of milk powder, which he specially went to XN to wholesale. Sixty per barrel may not seem like much, but this is Australian dollars, and if converted to RMB, it is 300 yuan.

Zhang Yun calculated, in the case of budgies, each parrot needs to eat three taels of milk powder from birth to growth, and three are about one pound of milk powder. Each barrel of milk powder has a total of six catties, and can only feed fifteen parrots.

The wholesale price of each is $15, making a total of $225. That is to say, even if the labor and food are removed, nothing is counted, but the milk powder money will pay 75 yuan for every fifteen parrots. You can't lose any more.

Fortunately, he is only used to practice his hands now, otherwise how stupid would he be! Humming a little song, poured the milk powder and water into a special machine and stirred evenly, and when the temperature was right, Zhang Yun began to feed the little parrot.

A group of little guys with big mouths and chirping, which is endearing.

After feeding the parrots, Zhang Yun came out to lie on the sofa to rest, looking at the empty living room, and wanted to say something that made people think he was pretending to be forced.

Sometimes the living room and dining room are connected together, and it's not a good thing that the area is too large! Empty, do you want me to run here?

The last time I came to Meijing, I said that the dining room and living room area are too large, and the space is not in line with the home design. Zhang Yun didn't think it was good to be big. Those 180-square-meter houses in China, there is no way to think of a lot of space. However, since they said so, Zhang Yun was going to put something in the middle to separate the living room from the dining room.

As for what to put it, Zhang Yun hasn't thought about it yet, it's too elegant to put some flowers, it's too ugly to put a screen, people just can't be rich, otherwise they don't know how to spend it.

was worried, little Jack looked at him like this, and said casually, "It's better to put an aquarium, and the fish swim around in it, whether it's in the dining room or in the living room." ”

Zhang Yun's eyes lit up, snapped his fingers, and said, "That's it."

The last time he was at the Gamara Wildlife Lodge, he felt really good, there was a kind of eye-catching feeling, it was very novel, and he slept soundly.

So he drove to the town, and Calvin, the owner of the aquarium shop, asked him for his purpose and said, "Okay, Zhang, take a look, the aquarium in the store, you can choose which one you like." ”

Zhang Yun looked at it and couldn't help frowning, it was too small. The small ones are only seventy or eighty centimeters long, the big ones are more than one meter, one meter two, one meter five, and the best one is only two meters. If you want to separate your own restaurant, it should be at least three meters!

I told him a little. Calvin's mouth opened wide, and for a moment he didn't know what to say. Please, you don't know the market!.

The difficulty of making an aquarium is directly proportional to its size. Seventy or eighty centimeter aquariums are easy to make, and one person can make them. And when it comes to 1.5 meters, it must be made by two or three people, the difficulty is doubled, and the price is doubled or tripled. Two meters must have three or four people, and the price is twice as expensive as one meter five.

As for the three-meter one, it is more difficult. The longest piece of glass in the three-meter aquarium is at least 500 kilograms, that is, 1,000 catties, half a ton. With such a heavy weight, it is still an extra-long and fragile thing, and it is very difficult to move. And the three-meter-long aquarium takes up too much space, and the average family who has a place to put it, so few people buy it.

However, if you want, you can customize it, and the price is around 10,000.

Zhang Yun couldn't help but smack his tongue, it was too expensive, just an aquarium would cost 10,000, and the price would be 50,000 in China. The average person who would spend so much money to buy an ornament.

Fortunately, he still had some spare money in his hand, so he asked Calvin to take a look, and finally decided to make a large aquarium that was three meters long, one meter wide, and one meter two high.

This one is very difficult to make and uses 1.9 cm thick glass. It's already very thick, you know, even the glass used in the bank, it's only 1.2 centimeters.

It's easy to do things with money, and with Zhang Yunqian throwing it down, Calvin got the glass over that day and prepared to make an aquarium. Calvin brought a clerk with him, but they still couldn't lift the glass, they couldn't help it, it was too heavy. A 1,000-pound piece of glass, long and wide, can't be bumped into it, how can it be so easy to lift. I had to come over and ask Zhang Yun for help.

Zhang Yun called all the people on the farm to help carry the glass. Not to mention how many people are easy to do, if there is only Zhang Yun himself on the farm, don't even think about this kind of thing. Now eight or nine people worked together to lift the glass easily in the living room.

Calvin thanked everyone and began to make the aquarium.

However, in ten days, as the budgies grow up, it is time to come out of the nest and be able to forage for food on their own. The aquarium was also made.

The 1.9 cm glass is very thick, and the fingers bang on it. It stands to reason that if such a long glass is thin, it can make the glass shake even if the breeze blows.

But the 1.9 cm glass, not to mention Zhang Yun's finger knocking, I'm afraid that even if he hits it with a hammer, he can't make the aquarium shake. You can't make it shatter.

In this case, Zhang Yun poured clean water and prepared to raise fish. However, what kind of fish to raise has become a difficult problem for him. There is a wide variety of ornamental fish, colorful tropical fish, feeding simple warm water fish. There are countless species, and finally Zhang Yun decided to raise Arowana.
