Chapter 167: Trouble
The pickup truck jolted all the way through the ranch and finally returned to the living quarters an hour later. At this time, the living area was noisy and very lively, and the cowboys had already learned about Wang Hao's "pick-up" of a freshwater crocodile through the radio equipment, so they were all waiting to see the excitement!
Crocodiles are not uncommon in the northern part of Australia, because the northern part of Australia is a tropical swamp area, and the news there is often that crocodiles eat and hurt people. But crocodiles are a rarity in places as close to the south as the Golden Pastures, which are vast grassland pastures with only a few river flats.
Neil pulled the pickup truck to the side of the road after a sharp turn, whistled excitedly, jumped out of the door, and shouted, "You know what? When I went there before, the boss actually took a selfie with the crocodile over there! ”
Luna, a hot cowgirl, looked at her boss in surprise, she hadn't noticed that Wang Hao had such a hobby before. But all her attention at this time was focused on the crocodile at the back of the carriage that kept flicking its tail: "That's cool! With crocodiles as pets, I think the number of followers on my Twitter and Instagram can increase by tens of thousands! ”
Wang Hao didn't have time to talk to them slowly, what he was worried about now was whether the crocodile would be healthy after being exposed to the sun, so Wang Hao gently reached out and gently stroked the scale armor on the crocodile's back, and slowly injected the magic power in his body into the crocodile.
The crocodile, which had been groggy and looked a little wilted, suddenly regained its vitality, opened its eyes, and yawned lazily. Slowly crawled down with his strong limbs.
The cute cat with a bun face like a curious baby also jumped and ran to the side of the truck, and it grabbed Wang Hao's trouser legs tightly with its fleshy paws. The chubby face was exposed, looking at the crocodile crawling not far away. The soup dumpling was originally a recently weaned kitten, so I didn't think there was anything terrible about crocodiles.
So in the blink of an eye, it jumped onto the crocodile's back. The four-legged little short-legged jumped up and down and regarded the crocodile as his playmate, and he couldn't talk about it.
The crocodile's original ferocious personality did not change, but it became relaxed after feeling the magical aura of the same origin as itself on the soup dumpling. I don't know when Luna took out her phone and took a few photos in a row, and there are not many scenes of two animals living in harmony like this, so they must be preserved.
Leonard, who was wearing overalls, still had some oil stains on his body, and he was repairing the wheat cutter in the warehouse, but the farm tools from a few years ago were now somewhat damaged, and the warranty period was over, so the ranch had to repair it himself.
Wang Hao, who became the center of attention, waved his hand. Laughing and driving away the cowboys: "What to see, hurry back to work, anyway, the crocodile will live here in the future, and there is more time to take pictures." ”
"There's one more task in the future, and that's feeding the crocodiles." Pete leaned against the truck and joked that he hadn't seen a ranch in all his years as a cowboy become a zoo like Golden Ranch. Pete could only attribute all the strange things to the mysterious Oriental Qigong, and he wondered when he would go to China to see it.
The crocodile slowly crawled to the edge of the pond, dipping its body into the water without looking back, gradually leaving only one tail at its side. The soup bag that was originally on it was startled. It was the most afraid of water, so it hurriedly jumped down, and then ran to Wang Hao's feet.
Bending down and scooping up the soup bag with one hand, Wang Hao gently brushed the blades of grass on its white fur. He turned to Pete and said, "In that case, I'll leave the matter of feeding the crocodiles to you, don't feed too much." ”
Katie, the steward of the ranch, walked towards Wang Hao with a dissatisfied expression. Her plump boobs swayed slightly, "Hey, boss." This crocodile cannot be kept indiscriminately, and it is not possible to do it without being inspected and vaccinated by the Animal Quarantine Center. ”
She seemed to feel that there was something wrong with her tone. So after calming down a little, he whispered: "The crocodile is a particularly dangerous animal, what if it hurts someone?" Especially now that there are children on the ranch, you see that little Susan is still here, who can guarantee that she will not be hurt? ”
Wang Hao frowned, he really hadn't thought about it, but did the animals he tamed have a record of hurting people? The magic of the druids is not something that these cowboys can understand, even Wang Hao himself understands after experiencing it himself. This kind of thing can't be made public, and he doesn't want to be noticeable, so how to solve the crocodile's trouble is not a big problem.
Even if he is the owner of the ranch, he can't just take the wild crocodile as his pet, even the tamed crocodile in the zoo can bite the keeper from time to time, and whether this crocodile will hurt people is naturally Katie's worry.
"Don't worry about crocodiles, it's docile and understands what we say." Wang Hao opened his mouth to explain, he clapped his hands, and shouted at the crocodiles wandering in the pool: "Come here!" ”
The crocodile, whose eyes were still on the water, shook its powerful tail slightly, and quietly paddled the waves to the edge of the pond.
Katie and the others looked at Wang Hao and the crocodile in amazement, they didn't know what to say, when did the crocodile become so obedient? Or has their world changed?
Pete rubbed his eyes, his voice slightly hoarse: "My God, this is simply impossible. ”
Leonard, who had walked not far away, was also stunned, his eyes widened, his hands kept drawing crosses on his chest, and he muttered that he didn't know what he was saying.
Rather, it was Katie, the veterinarian's daughter, who had seen too many animals since she was a child, so she didn't feel anything now, she shook her head and said, "Don't dare how obedient it is, you have to register and let it get vaccinated, the sooner the better." ”
Australia is very strict with animal management, and at the same time, it can also take this opportunity to let the crocodile successfully "go to the house", so that it is not a black household. Anyway, it didn't take too many formalities, so Wang Hao nodded and agreed, he just asked Neil to drive to the veterinary clinic at that time, and there was no need for him to go.
The sun was still shining in the sky at this time, and the cowboys who had watched the excitement were also in place to busy their work, after all, Wang Hao spent money.
After squeezing some hand sanitizer by the sink, Wang Hao carefully washed his arm, so as not to have any parasites or the like, even if it was psychological comfort.
At this time, the little witch Susan's nap time was not over, and Wang Hao was given a little time to call Su Jing for a while. (To be continued......)
