Chapter 148: The Deer

Throughout Europe, there are very few large predators, so it is also a paradise for herbivores.

Take Switzerland as an example, although there are many mountains and forests here, there are not even a few wolves in the whole country. What is the animal that hurts the most people here? It's a lynx!

As the saying goes, there are no tigers in the mountains, monkeys are kings, and lynxes at the lower end of the food chain can be kings and dominates, and it can be seen that Europe is not a paradise for beasts of prey at all.

Because of the lack of predators, Europe can be said to be a paradise for small animals.

For example, the fox in Britain once reached the point of flooding, and to this day, fox hunting is still a traditional hunting activity in Britain.

In the mountains here in Switzerland, there are a large number of small animals, especially wild deer, hares, pheasants, as long as you bring a gun, go around the mountains, almost will not be empty-handed.

Zhounan's home is located at the top of the peninsula, some distance from the foot of the mountain, but because there is a forest to the north, it is also a paradise for wildlife.

Although Zhou Nan didn't mind eating meat or killing, after all, he had been nurtured for decades in his previous life, and he wouldn't take the initiative to kill when it wasn't necessary.

So although there are many wild animals in the forest, he never takes the initiative to provoke them, except for occasionally looking for some wild products such as matsutake and truffles with Audrey.

Etinny and the others often went hunting when they had nothing to do, and asked Kelly to clean up the rabbits and pheasants they had brought back, and then asked Zhou Nan to stew and fry them.

Because it is far away from the foot of the mountain, there are mainly pheasants, hares, and muntjac animals near his home, but there are not many wild deer. Because deer herds generally live in groups, it is often seen that they also live in groups.

Switzerland generally does not enter the hunting season until after November, and it usually does not exceed two months, in order to maintain the number of wild animals.

For example, wild deer herds can often be seen, but they are not allowed to be hunted during the non-hunting period, and even if they are hunted, they can only be hunted for adult deer.

The Swiss are as rigid as the Germans, and there are no government restrictions at all, and no one will cross the line.

Audrey likes deer very much, because Zhou Nan told her that her eyes are like a deer, full of curiosity about the world, but full of a timid look.

And the media often likes to praise her like this, and praise her eyes as pure as angels.

So every time she sees the fawn, she likes it very much. In the spring, the two of them also went to the Deer Conservation Center in the Swiss Forest Park to feed the deer, and Audrey also donated 1,000 Swiss francs to adopt a herd of deer.

A fawn suddenly broke into her home, not to mention how excited she was, she only had time to put a coat on her body, so she hurriedly pulled Zhou Nan downstairs to see the fawn.

In the hallway on the first floor, Popler and the others surrounded a fawn that had just been weaned at most, and the fawn had a broken front leg and was hanging there, looking very weak.

From time to time John went up and sniffed with his nose, looked at the crowd, felt bored again, and went back to his blanket and lay down.

Glevin opened the storage room on the north side, which contained some spare flooring accessories, and he picked out a stick, sawed three knots with a saw, gave the fawn a little medicine, and then boarded its front legs.

In less than five minutes, the rescue work was completed.

Audrey saw that this fawn was so pitiful, she kept staring intently, and tears of distress were about to fall. "Aunt Kelly, I remember the evening party, and there was still some goat's milk that I didn't finish drinking!"

Kelly looked at John and said, "I just poured it on John, I don't know if it drank it." ”

Audrey ran over and saw that John's basin still had half a pot of goat's milk, and was ready to serve it to the fawn.

John stood up at once, watched Audrey take away its basin, and followed Audrey.

Audrey placed the basin in front of the fawn, who smelled the milk and stretched out her neck to lick it.

But John was no more, and he snorted, and the frightened fawn lay there again.

Audrey scolded unhappily, "Bad John......"

John didn't care, he leaned over and took the edge of his basin in his mouth, carefully taking care not to spill the milk inside, and to take it back to his nest.

Zhou Nan and Kelly couldn't help laughing, this guy is very protective of food.

Audrey wanted to laugh too, but when she saw that the fawn was so pitiful, she couldn't laugh anymore. She stopped John and said gently, "John, good, you don't drink it, now give the milk to the deer to drink, and tomorrow I will stew you a big piece of meat." ”

I don't know if it understood, but he hesitated for a moment, lowered his head and put the basin on the ground again, and returned to his blanket a little sullenly.

Kelly also laughed and said, "With its basin, it's not happy." ”

Audrey couldn't care about John anymore, and pushed the milk next to the fawn again. The fawn looked cautiously at the people around her, unable to resist the temptation of goat's milk, and struggled to get up.

Audrey hurriedly picked up the still wet one, held the milk basin in her hand, and watched the fawn drink goat's milk one by one, with a happy smile on her face.

"Jonas, this fawn is so pitiful, shall we keep it at home?"

Before Zhou Nan could express his position, Popler said: "A herd of deer ran into our farm, this fawn is only one of them, and there are five more!" ”

Audrey was even more surprised, and asked in surprise, "Five more?" ”

Popler nodded, and she looked at Zhou Nan pitifully, although she didn't speak, her eyes had already said everything she wanted to say.

Zhou Nan shook his head and smiled: "If you want to stay, you can stay, but you have to go to the town to register yourself." ”

Audrey immediately agreed. Kelly said with some disapproval: "You don't need to register, just let them live in the pasture, anyway, in the winter, they will be eaten." ”

"Don't eat it, I want to raise it......"

Kelly laughed, "This is still a fawn, no one will eat it, I mean its parents ......"

"Aunt Kelly, shall we not eat them?"

Several men looked at each other and smiled, this kind of wild deer, the big one was meant to be eaten. Otherwise, they have no natural predators, and in a few years, I am afraid that they will overflow.

Kelly agreed to Audrey anyway. She thought that Audrey was just a whim, but she didn't know that Audrey had no resistance to animals like deer at all.

In another life, she liked the fawn, and her heart did not change in different time and space.

Zhou Nan can already imagine that in the near future, the size of the family's deer herd may become larger and larger.

However, if you want deer antler velvet, drink deer blood, and eat venison in the future, you don't have to spend money to buy deer.

Of course, this purpose cannot be made known to her now.

The fawn was arranged at the entrance, and Audrey specially laid a soft nest for it, and Audrey was relieved to see that it had recovered a little spirit.

However, Zhou Nan soon became a little jealous. Because it had been more than half an hour, Audrey seemed to have only the fawn in her eyes, and everyone else had gone to rest, but she was still reluctant to go upstairs.

"Audrey, how long do you want to play with it, you see that it has long wanted to sleep, and you are still harassing it."

"Honey, look how cute it is......" Audrey said without looking up, "it likes me, it licks my fingers all the time." ”

"That's you deliberately licking it...... Let's go, it's time for us to rest. ”

"I'll be right away...... "This is more than ten minutes ...... right away.

It was already past eleven o'clock when today's barbecue party ended, and now, it was almost three o'clock in the morning.

Audrey finally reluctantly went upstairs, and she was reluctant to give up the fawn.

Zhou Nan was a little angry, and picked her up and put her on his shoulder. "You're just a playful kid......"

She laughed and patted Zhou Nan's back. "Then you're a vicious big bad wolf......"

Zhou Nan slapped her upturned buttocks and smiled: "Then you just wait for me to eat you......"

She understood what Zhou Nan meant, and couldn't help laughing, for fear of disturbing Kelly, she suppressed her voice, making this kind of eating laughter full of a strange temptation.

went up to the second floor and entered his room, and this time the two of them didn't have to suppress their voices anymore.

Zhou Nan threw her on the bed, she screamed, rolled in the quilt, and avoided Zhou Nan's big hand. "Honey, I still need to wash my hands, I touched the fawn and John...... You're going to have to take a shower too. ”

"Then let's go together...... Zhou Nan said seductively.

She shook her lower lip and deliberately pretended to be stiff and said, "Don't, that will wash until dawn......"

The two have been together for a few years, how Zhou Nan didn't know her hints, laughed, and took her in his arms like a child and let her sit in the crook of his arm.

She put her arms around Zhou Nan's neck and helped Zhou Nan reduce her weight, but asked in a big way: "Do you think the deer is not used to it?" ”

Zhou Nan was a little angry, and said viciously: "You better worry about yourself first!" ”

The bathroom door was opened and closed, and a heart-pounding sound could be heard inside......

……

……

Because it was too late, Zhou Nan sat in the car the next day and took a nap.

Today, Audrey didn't sleep lazy because she remembered the fawn, and when Zhou Nan left, she was still urging Glewin to arrange a suitable shack for the fawn family.

The car arrived in Bern, and Stolko woke Zhou Nan. "Jonas, you're going to have a day's meeting today, and I'm not going to wait for you. The Soviet Union expelled Tito from the Comintern, and Yugoslavia is now seeking support from the United States, and I am going to Geneva today to participate in the negotiations between Yugoslavia and the United States. ”

Zhou Nan rubbed his face with his hand, nodded and said, "It's good to be a witness, don't get involved, you don't want to be on the blacklist of the Soviet Union!" ”

"I know......" Stolko laughed and whispered: "The Soviet side also wants to know about Yugoslavia's actions through me, and I still have a role to play for them." ”

Because of his close relationship with the Soviet Union, Stolko is now out of their camp, but he is still regarded by the Soviet Union as a person with whom he can interact.

Especially after becoming Zhou Nan's adviser, he also represented Zhou Nan to some extent, and is now more valued by the Soviet Union.

Zhou Nan also needed such a channel for direct dialogue with the Soviet Union, and for the time being, as long as they maintained a neutral stance, both the East and the West tacitly acquiesced in their participation in the dialogue between the two sides to a certain extent, adding a buffer point.
