The cage was small, and there was a gray bird in it. The bird appears to be larger than the pigeon, and its grey plumage makes it look less noticeable.

However, Li Yuan knows very well that this bird is not amazing, but it is actually a famous gray parrot. This parrot is said to be very intelligent, with an IQ almost equal to that of a five-year-old child, very good at imitating various languages, and can master hundreds of words.

It should be noted that the gray parrot is able to "master" hundreds of words, not simply "imitate". This means that they understand the meaning of the words and can say the right words when needed.

It is precisely because of this that in recent years, gray parrots have also become the new favorite of many people. Many people take it as a pleasure to raise grey parrots and teach them to speak.

However, gray parrots are native to Africa and are more troublesome to breed in China. In addition, there are many people who like it, so the price is also rising, and a young bird will be sold for more than 5,000 yuan. If you can say a few words, the price is even higher.

Li Yuan also likes this kind of parrot very much, and has always wanted to raise one. But before he couldn't even feed himself, let alone raise a bird that only cost a few thousand yuan. However, now Li Yuan's situation has improved greatly, so after seeing this gray parrot, he can't help but feel a little moved.

But the gray parrot was not in good condition, squatting at the bottom of the cage with its neck bent, the feathers on its head and back fluffy, and its whole body trembling slightly.

Li Yuan had seen this situation in the chickens raised by his neighbors before, and it was clearly a sign of chicken plague. Chickens that do have this condition generally die within a few days. This gray parrot should be no exception, it seems that it will not live for long.

The gray parrot in the cage also noticed that someone was looking at it, and although it was seriously ill, it still reluctantly raised its head and wanted to use its crooked mouth to pick up Li Yuan's fingers.

The gray parrot's reaction made Li Yuan's heart twitch slightly, and he hurriedly asked the owner of the pet store: "Boss, how can this bird be sold?" ”

"This is the African grey parrot, the smartest parrot!" Seeing a customer coming to the door, the owner of the pet store immediately gushed and said: "This bird is difficult to breed, and it is artificially fed since childhood, so the price is not cheap......

Li Yuan frowned and said, "You can just make a bid, don't say so many useless ......"

"Seven thousand!" The pet shop owner made a gesture and finally made an offer.

Hearing this price, Li Yuan turned around and left without saying a word.

Even if it is a healthy gray parrot, the normal price on the market is only more than 5,000. This black-hearted boss opened his mouth to seven thousand, and he was still a sick bird, and he completely regarded Li Yuan as a wronged man. Li Yuan hated others for treating him as a fool the most, and immediately lost interest in talking to the other party.

Seeing that Li Yuan was actually leaving, the owner of the pet store was also anxious, and hurriedly said loudly: "Friend, the price is negotiable, why are you in a hurry to leave?" ”

Li Yuan stopped when he heard this, and said coldly: "This gray parrot is not lightly ill, I have to go to the pet hospital to treat it immediately after I buy it, and it is not necessarily cured well." You offer such a high price, there is nothing to negotiate at all. ”

Seeing that Li Yuan had already seen that the gray parrot was sick, the owner of the pet store also knew that it was not possible to open a high price. In fact, he really wanted to sell the sick gray parrot as soon as possible, so as not to die of illness and lose all his money, so he laughed and said: "Of course you can negotiate, you can pay back the price!" ”

"One thousand and five!" Li Yuan was not ambiguous, and immediately quoted a low price.

The owner of the pet shop immediately frowned and said, "Friend, this price is too low, you want me to lose all my money!" ”

Bargaining was Li Yuan's forte, and he immediately sneered: "If no one buys your bird in a few days, you won't even be able to earn a thousand and a half." ”

The owner of the pet shop also knew that Li Yuan was right, but he still wanted him to increase the price. So Li Yuan added 1,200 yuan, and then sold it for 2,300 yuan, and the pet store owner also sent a cage and a bag of bird food.

After receiving the cage and bird food containing the gray parrot from the sad pet shop owner, Li Yuan was also very satisfied with today's harvest.

Glancing at the gray parrot in the cage, Li Yuan said with an idea: "Your two friends are called soybeans and black beans respectively, so you will be called gray beans!" ”

Hearing Li Yuan's words, the gray parrot immediately turned its head away, as if disgusted with the name. However, as the owner, Li Yuan, of course, had to maintain his dignity, completely ignoring the reaction of the gray parrot, and decided to call it that way from now on.

Although he spent more than 2,000 yuan to buy gray beans, Li Yuan was not ready to take it to the pet hospital for medical treatment. You must know that going to the pet hospital also costs money, and it may not be able to cure the gray beans who are already seriously ill. Li Yuan's plan was to put the gray bean into the peach pit space, believing that it would soon recover its health in that magical place.

After returning home, Li Yuan immediately brought all three beans into the peach pit space.

Soybeans and black beans were very curious about this strange place, and as soon as they came out of the cardboard box, they looked east and west, smelled west, and soon spread joy on the grass.

It can be seen that the two puppies love this place, after all, there is such a large area to move around freely, it is like paradise for the puppy.

Compared with soybeans and black beans, the situation of gray beans is worse. Although Li Yuan opened the cage, it still had no intention of coming out, and still squatted at the bottom of the cage and dozed off.

"Come out and come out, it's so fun outside." Li Yuan had to use his hands to grab the gray bean out, and at the same time beware of its crooked mouth. The parrot's mouth is very powerful, and even if the gray bean is sick, it will still open its skin and flesh when it bites it.

However, Gray Bean seemed to know that Li Yuan was for its good, and did not have any struggle, and obediently let the new owner grab him out of the cage.

"Yes, it's good!" He was very satisfied with the reaction of the gray bean, and Li Yuan couldn't help but praise it.

Then Li Yuan scooped some spring water for the gray bean to drink, and prepared some bird food for it. The seriously ill gray bean did not eat bird food, but only drank some water, and then shrunk his neck and dozed off.

Li Yuan didn't have a better way to do it to the gray bean, just put it on the peach tree to rest, so as not to disturb it with the two puppies. Then he left the peach pit space and went to find food for soybeans and black beans.

Unlike those delicate ornamental dogs, Chinese pastoral dogs are very easy to raise. As long as they mix some leftovers with some rice and give them something to eat, the two little ones will grow up smoothly.

Li Yuan got some leftovers, and asked Aunt Hua for some leftovers that she didn't need when she made braised vegetables, and after mixing them together, they became a delicacy of soybeans and black beans.

However, when Li Yuanxing rushed to bring the dog food into the peach pit space, he was really taken aback.
