Chapter 31: A Spiritual Puppy

Zhang Taiping is such a majestic big man, but he has a parrot on his shoulder, just like a big man holding a silk scarf and waving it all day long, which makes people look extremely awkward. Along the way, it attracted 100% attention.

But Zhang Taiping also has no way, in this kind of crowd, you can't put the parrot into the space suddenly, if a big living creature suddenly disappears out of thin air, it will definitely attract people's attention, so it can only be put on the shoulder. Greeted with strange eyes, it was also helpless.

Zhang Taiping could only pretend to be blind all the way, turning a blind eye to what others were saying.

When you enter the dog market, the parrot on your shoulder can bark, and wherever you go, it will always provoke a group of dogs to bark angrily.

I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here. Yang Wanli also pulled his Ah Lei to follow a few people around.

Zhang Taiping hadn't seen Yang Wanli yet, so he greeted him early. Indeed, like Zhang Taiping, he can cause dogs to bark everywhere he goes, and it is difficult not to attract attention. Zhang Taiping really didn't want to do this, but the parrot standing on his shoulder could always easily provoke the dogs' anger.

It was also a pleasure to meet an acquaintance, Zhang Taiping. Originally, when I came to this kind of pet market today, I had the intention of buying a puppy, but I didn't know much about dogs. Someone sent a pillow when he was sleepy, he didn't know much about dogs, but someone knew a lot, so he could let Yang Wanli help him choose a better breed of puppy. He is also a dog lover, and he must have a good understanding of dogs, and he must be able to help see the dog's bloodline, and he only needs to check the existence of the Ling surname.

Looking at him pulling his Ah Lei, Zhang Taiping asked very strangely, "Why did you bring Ah Lei here?" ”

"Pull to walk, but also let Arei meet his companions, see the world, and have more contact with other big dogs." Yang Wanli replied with a smile.

Zhang Taiping realized that pulling dogs here is not necessarily here to sell, some people just pull dogs to breathe and play with other dogs. Just like Yang Wanli, just because he loves dogs, he has no intention of selling.

Without waiting for Zhang Taiping to speak, Ah Lei let out a low roar to the parrot standing on Zhang Taiping's shoulder, but he didn't expect that the parrot was not only not frightened, but also roared when he was learning and selling, which was quite-for-tat.

Yang Wanli comforted Ah Lei, then pointed to the parrot and said, "I don't know which one the eldest brother is singing, why do you carry a parrot on your shoulder, is it here to sell?" ”

Before Zhang Taiping could answer, the parrot was anxious for a while, "don't sell it, don't sell it".

Yang Wanli was amazed when he heard this: "It's quite smart." ”

This parrot is now dependent on Zhang Taiping, and she can't get rid of it, and anything she can understand about driving her away will make her anxious.

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "It's quite smart." I just bought it because of my cleverness. ”

"How much does it cost?"

"A thousand, how about it, is it expensive?"

"A thousand?" Yang Wanli replied, "Big brother, you have picked up a big bargain, parrots like this who are both smart and eloquent are at least more than 5,000, and if there is no major problem, they can be sold for tens of thousands." One thousand, it's cheap in the end! ”

In fact, Zhang Taiping also knew that he had picked up a bargain, which was according to common sense, but this parrot was not very reluctant to buy, and it belonged to the part of the money that was accidentally spent, so even if it was a low price of 1,000 yuan in the industry, Zhang Taiping felt a little high.

"Why do you have time to come to the city today?" Zhang Taiping found another topic and asked Yang Wanli.

"I have no restrictions on where I can go, and I am always available. Today is a yo-yo with a few friends, and there is no special purpose. I don't know what Brother Zhang is doing today? Yang Wanli replied and then asked.

"I want to buy a dog, but I just don't understand, so I'll help the staff when you come."

"That's not a problem, my two friends also know dogs, so I'm sure to choose a dog with a good surname for you. Oh, by the way, I'll introduce you. Pointing to the two young men of the same age behind him, he said to Zhang Taiping, "These are my two college roommates, the tall one is called He Cheng, and the one who can be a bodybuilder is called Niu Junfeng, who is also engaged in flowers and trees." ”

Then he pointed to Zhang Taiping and turned to the two roommates and said, "This is a friend in our town, the big name is Zhang Taiping, and he is called the big handsome." ”

Zhang Taiping smiled and shook hands with the two of them.

After a few words of greeting, several people said while walking, and Yang Wanli asked Zhang Taiping: "Isn't it that Brother Zhang wants an adult big dog or a small puppy?" ”

"Puppy, it's better than rushing to use it, and there is a local dog at home. I just like dogs more and want one that looks mighty when raised. ”

He Cheng, who was tall and thin, said: "If you are not in a hurry to use it, then buying a puppy is a good choice." Dogs are still good animals that have been cultivated since childhood, and they can cultivate deep feelings with their owners, and their loyalty is high. ”

Niu Junfeng then added: "In terms of might, such as Tibetan mastiffs, Caucasus, German herdsmen, big white bears, etc., are all good choices. These dogs are all larger and look imposing when they reach adulthood. ”

Zhang Taiping listened carefully to the introduction of these two and wrote down the names of these dogs.

There are all kinds of dog breeds in the dog market, from large Tibetan mastiffs that look fierce and unusually fierce, to large white bears that look docile and obedient. However, it is still the most common to have collies and small pet dogs.

I saw a few houses that bought Tibetan mastiff cubs, but the price was either too high or there was no spiritual surname.

In fact, the bloodline of the Tibetan mastiff sold on the market is not a complete purebred Tibetan mastiff, and the purebred Tibetan mastiff mentioned by Ping said is only relatively pure in blood. Most of the others are crossbred with other large dogs, and the offspring inherit most of the characteristics of the Tibetan mastiff. Moreover, these Tibetan mastiffs tend to be ferocious, but their obedience is not high.

Legend has it that the palace guard dog of the Potala Palace in Tibetan Province is a purebred Tibetan mastiff and has a strong obedience surname. But this is just a legend, and it is not known whether it is true or not.

After seeing these Tibetan mastiffs, Zhang Taiping didn't have any thoughts about Tibetan mastiffs. In fact, buying a tall and mighty one is mainly for the sake of the mother and daughter in the family. The village was originally surrounded by mountains, and the house was too close to Nanshan, and the wild beasts may have a large surname, and sometimes they were really worried about the two of them when they went out. It is necessary to buy a large dog that is fierce and obedient and has a strong surname.

After looking around for more than half an hour, I finally stopped in front of a stall selling Saint Bernard dogs.

The main consideration is that the Saint Bernard is a super large dog but has a very docile surname, easy to get close, kind, friendly, and it is loyal to its owner, likes to be with children, is suitable for companionship with children, and is very tolerant of children. Easy to train and good at lifesaving.

The Saint Bernard puppies were sold by a middle-aged man in his fifties who placed four two or three-month-old puppies in a carefully prepared box. The is a large, pure white Saint Bernard, meekly sitting behind her owner.

"Boss, what is the price of these puppies?" Yang Wanli asked first.

The boss looked at Zhang Taiping and Ah Lei, who was following Yang Wanli, and replied with a smile: "Look at the Tibetan mastiff behind Mr. is not bad, presumably Mr. is also a dog lover, and he can see that this is a purebred Saint Bernard." The price is the price on the market, 5,000 one. ”

Three of the four puppies in the box are pure white and only one is brown. The three pure white puppies looked stronger, while the brown one was much thinner and didn't look very energetic.

The other three will pay attention to the three pure white puppies, because these three are purebred at first glance and have inherited a bit from their parents.

But Zhang Taiping focused on the weak brown puppy. The puppy looked weak and thin, but at the moment when Zhang Taiping just approached, the puppy's nose twitched obviously, and he turned his head to sniff. The other three didn't react in particular.

This puppy has a spirit surname!

After turning around for so long and looking at so many dogs, no matter how big or small, there has never been a dog like this one who reacted to the breath on Zhang Taiping's body.

Zhang Taiping held back the excitement in his heart, looked at the puppy for a while and said.

"Why is this one brown, different from other colors, and a little different in appearance?"

"Uh, this one"

The dog owner hesitated for a while and said, "There were some problems during the breeding at that time, which led to this. ”

The other three also shifted their attention.

Niu Junfeng said: "This is not a purebred, a bit like the Caucasus"

The boss smiled awkwardly, "Hehe, this is indeed not a purebred, but it is really born from the same mother"

"That's a little strange, how can the same mother give birth to different breeds?"

"Let's be honest, my Saint Bernard was already bred at that time, but no one expected that another Caucasian would be strong, and that's it," the boss said helplessly.

This kind of thing can also happen, Zhang Taiping was suddenly scorched by the thunder. The four of them looked at each other for a moment, they were really shocked, but the smile on their faces was forcibly suppressed.

"I don't know what to say, huh" Yang Wanli gave a thumbs up to the dog owner.

Holding back his laughter, Zhang Taiping asked, "So, this brown puppy is a cross between the Caucasus and St. Bernard?" ”

"That's right." The boss nodded.

"And how much is this?"

The boss thought for a while: "If you sincerely want it, eight hundred will be given to you." ”

Before Zhang Taiping could speak, Yang Wanli asked him: "This is not a purebred, there is no guarantee in quality, are you sure you want this one?" ”

Zhang Taiping nodded and replied: "As long as the price is right, it doesn't matter if it's purebred or not." ”
