Chapter 398: Those Guys in the Family
Only the first few of Zhang Yan's hares are now left in the reservoir, and all the others have gone outside to forage for food and survive, otherwise the small reservoir would not be able to accommodate so many hares.
They eat well here, have no natural predators, and reproduce too quickly. After a few years, the small reservoir can no longer accommodate their entire family.
So Zhang Tao's grandparents simply let them go outside to survive on their own, and staying here would destroy the entire orchard.
"The hares are tired of eating them, and they must be left to go outside on their own." This is Zhang Tao's grandfather's original words, it was not easy to catch a hare to eat before.
Now that their family has such a big litter, it is tiresome to eat hares often. At first, Zhang Yan didn't let her rabbits eat, but seeing these guys give birth in a litter, she herself loved to come here to see it.
No way, these guys are reproducing as fast as mice. And not only Zhang Tao and his reservoir are like this, but also the breeding company has caught some of the past, and the results of breeding are also like this.
There are also a lot more hares in the wild, and after the transformation of the mountains and forests here, plus the encirclement and suppression of their natural enemies in the past. Carnivores such as jackals, wolves and leopards are rarely seen except on the other side of the reservoir.
Without the harm of these things to hares, and the abundance of food in the wild, hares can now be seen everywhere in the mountains, and this dish has become a common dish in the small restaurants in the town.
In addition to the growth of hares, the number of wild boars, pheasants and muntjac seems to have increased considerably. The wild boars can feel the danger now, but the policies above can't come down, and the people in the town really don't dare to touch them.
Because these guys are especially protected animals, but there are a little more of them. Some sweet potatoes and peanuts and other things grown in the dry land are often plagued by these guys.
In the past, the people in the town could go to the mountains with shotguns for a year to help them reduce their numbers, but now the town's economy is better, and this side is in the sight of many people, and the leaders above don't nod, and a few people dare to go up the mountain to hunt wild boars.
Except for some domesticated by the breeding company, which can be sold in the market, other places are not allowed to be sold, and it will be troublesome if you catch it. So despite the greed, no one really dared to go up the mountain.
"In the past, there was not much care in the mountains, and wild boars bullied people. Now the mountain is often taken care of, but the top is too tight, and it is still a wild boar bullying people. ”
Some guys in the neighborhood have long been drooling over the wild boars on the mountain, and the wild boar released by the breeding company every year is too small, and there is simply not enough to eat!
Relatively speaking, the group of squirrels in Zhang Tao's reservoir is much better. They only live here, and the rest of the time they run to the woods by the water's edge to have fun.
But they themselves have moved out a few pairs of people, and these things seem to have their own territory, and when they get older, those guys go out to work their own. Whether it's mixed well or not, these things don't care much about the squirrel parents.
For them, all it takes is a nest. Whether it is a tree hole or a nest built by themselves, they are very accustomed to living, and they don't have to worry about finding a wife without a car, a house.
Every day, they look for food to eat in the big forest, and then play casually in the forest. It's good to hook up with a companion by the way, and you don't have to think about the rest, it's much more free than human life.
Zhang Tao's reservoir is still running, and someone has been hired to take care of it, and the orchards and dry land are being cultivated, and it has not been abandoned because the conditions at home are good.
Zhang Tao's grandparents and grandparents often go to the fields to do activities, and they are used to farming. "This life is better, I don't feel comfortable doing something every day, and I'm in a better mood when I plant something."
In addition to the two of them, even the old man who lived in the village would come to the reservoir from time to time, go to the field with Zhang Tao's grandfather, and do something casually.
After the annual net fishing period of the big reservoir in the town is reduced, the fish on his side are better sold, and he usually has to receive some people who come to fish and play, so the annual income here is still a lot.
The town now has more permanent residents than the city, reaching more than 400,000 people, and the demand for food has increased. Vegetables, meat are all necessary things.
However, the scale of planting and breeding in the town has expanded a lot, and it has also expanded to the surrounding areas, so there is no problem at all in supporting the whole town and exporting, and it is slightly more difficult to export to other parts of the country.
The vegetables produced by the two companies in the town have always been the best selling products, and not only the people in the town like them, but also people from the surrounding areas often come here to buy vegetables. The things here are not only of good quality, but also safe.
"Panther, shall we go to the reservoir?" After Zhang Tao stayed at home for a while, he was about to go to the reservoir to have a look, and then shouted to the black panther at home.
After hearing this, the panther guy just glanced up at Zhang Tao, and then continued to hide in the room, lying on the edge of the fire every day. The less this guy likes to go out and about, especially in the winter.
It looks a lot thinner than before, and its original oily hair has also faded a lot, and by now, it is fifteen years old. It is really a longevity in its kind, and the lifespan of a dog is only so long.
The people of Zhang Tao's family have a very deep affection for this guy, and they habitually regard him as a member of the family. So although this guy has bad teeth and walks like an old dragon, no one in the Zhang family dislikes it.
I usually take good care of it, and I will check it regularly, pay attention to its physical state at any time, and always hope that it can live for a few more years.
The black panther doesn't like to move when he's old, but the four flowers are different. These four guys are now at the peak of their lives, and they are very energetic and very active. Seeing that Zhang Tao was going out, he immediately followed Zhang Tao.
They are now the same size as ordinary dogs, they look like four leopards, and they are still quite intimidating when they follow Zhang Tao.
It's just that it would be nice if these four guys weren't so funny from time to time, their funny comparisons completely ruined their mighty and domineering appearance, which was unbearable to see.
After following Zhang Tao for a while, they didn't drive out now, so they immediately started to laugh, and they could finally go out with Zhang Tao to play.
followed Zhang Tao's back from time to time and frolicked with each other, and even more pulled the big flower, biting his tail and spinning in circles on the side, looking stupid!
If it weren't for seeing Zhang Tao go far, it is estimated that this guy would continue to turn there. The other three guys didn't look much better, and they couldn't bear to look at them directly.
After arriving at the back mountain, these four guys all went to have fun on their own, and they didn't continue to follow Zhang Tao's mind at all. There are a lot more birds here, and for them, the attraction is much more than following Zhang Tao.
"Remember to go home when you've had enough, or you won't have anything to eat at night."
Zhang Tao was lazy to take care of the four guys, anyway, they would go home by themselves, so they didn't have to worry about their safety. Everyone nearby knows that these four second goods are raised by Zhang's family, and they are still a cherished animal, and no one will bully them.
The only thing that can bully them is the hibernating guy, that guy and Sihua have never dealt with each other, and the two sides never take the initiative to enter each other's activity area.
However, if you are active on the ground, Xiao Hei can also bully them, but it is still a bit hanging to deal with the four together. And although these four second-class goods are a bit two, they are still funny, but they can't stand them and will climb trees.
Xiao Hei not only inherited the excellent genes of the black panther, but also broke through the size of the black panther, which is not much worse than the wolf dog, and looks very powerful.
It's just that it doesn't have the fan of its father, Black Panther, when he was young, and he defeats the invincible dogs around. On the contrary, I have been messing around with the four two goods a lot.,It's become a little bit two.,Often do some ridiculous things.。。
For example, now, when this guy saw Zhang Tao coming to the reservoir, he flew directly into Zhang Tao's arms with a leap. just waited for Zhang Tao to give it a hug, and then begged for a reward.
It's just that Zhang Tao didn't dare to hug it like this, and a quick dodge made this guy jump directly into the air and fall directly to the ground.
It is so large, it can withstand it so hard, and it will be tragic to be thrown into the reservoir later. The last time Zhang Yan came over, this guy directly threw the swallow into the reservoir and was punished by the swallow for a month.
"Come back to this set! The punishment that the swallow gave you last time was all in vain? Zhang Tao gently lectured the guy who was wagging his tail behind him, and this guy didn't seem to care at all.
Now it seems that the punishment given by Yanzi is too light, and this guy has no intention of reining in at all. After throwing into the air, he immediately crossed one leg and soaked in water, and then continued to wrap himself in front of Zhang Tao, to the effect that he was begging to touch his head and ask for comfort.
After following Zhang Tao around the reservoir, after playing for a while, Zhang Tao went back to the bay, this guy didn't go with him, he turned around and went back to the nest on the other side of the reservoir orchard. The black panther is there at Zhang Tao's house, and it rarely passes.
In the afternoon, Zhang Tao's parents and their entourage returned here from the Xiangjiang River, stuffed a large cart full of gifts, all of which were special products bought from there. The elderly in the bay have divided some into each family, and the rest is used for their own homes.
"Oh, it's more tiring to run out for a trip than to do things, and that's what happened over there, and I used to be like heaven over there." Except for Zhang Yan and Zhao Lin, who were full of envy over there, Zhang Tao's parents were much calmer.
Zhang Tao's father had been there with Lin Sheng because of business before, and Zhang Tao's mother was there for the first time, but the feeling left for her there was like that.
Except for the economy, the rest of the city is like that, and I still feel much more comfortable in the town, and the air here is much fresher.
