I want to do research even if I have no money

The locomotive that Situ Meng and Jing Shen took when they came here only took about half an hour to arrive; on the return journey, because there were twelve extra dogs, they could not take the locomotive, so they could only go back by ox cart, which went steadily but slowly. , It took a long time to return to Chengning Villa.

Situ Meng made money with the bearded uncle, and Luo Wu had already heard the news, so he came to meet them with Lin's servants and two wooden carts.

It was the first time that Luo Wu and the servants had seen so many dogs, and it was a breed that had never been seen before.After all, Luo Wu had been in the capital for more than ten years, and he knew that these breeds were not local, and foreign things were always more expensive. When moving the cages, he told the servants to be careful not to hurt the puppies inside.

"Master, why did you buy so many dogs?" Luo Wu didn't understand why Situ Meng went out and brought so many dogs back. It stands to reason that the manor is seriously infested with rats. Even if Situ Meng bought two cars of cats and two cars of snakes, he would not come back. Strange, but why did you bring back a dog?

Situ Meng curled his lips and didn't answer him, he just ordered them to transport all the cages into the Lin Mansion.

That evening, everyone who saw Situ Meng brought back two carts of puppies all felt strange, but no one dared to come out and ask.

For rat terriers, catching mice is a natural instinct, and it has nothing to do with whether they are hungry or not. On the contrary, they have the strength to catch mice when they are full. Therefore, Situ Meng did not starve these puppies, and Lin Fusheng had a lot of empty rooms. Situ Meng simply put all these dogs together in a yard surrounded by a fence. These puppies can't jump high and can't run out.

Situ Meng and Jing Shen were in the yard, and opened the cage that trapped the puppies. At first, the puppies huddled in the cage and dared not come out. Situ Meng and Jing Shen backed away a few steps, and then lured them with food. After a long time, only one The puppy came out of the cage carefully.

Once there was the first one, there would be the second and the third. The puppies came out of the cage one after another, and soon the small courtyard was occupied by dogs.

These twelve puppies were raised in Lin's mansion for six days, and after successfully recognizing their master, Situ Meng led them with a rope and brought them out.

Jing Shen has been waiting by the farmland for a long time. When he arrived, a big mouse suddenly jumped out and almost missed him. Fortunately, the guards around him reacted quickly and killed the huge mouse with a hidden weapon.

Jing Shen heaved a sigh of relief, and didn't dare to continue standing in the field. He jumped on the roof and squatted with the guards, watching the show condescendingly.

The farmers came one after another. Yesterday, Situ Meng asked his servants to inform everyone that they would gather in the farmland at noon today. He had a way to deal with the rat problem.

Everyone was looking forward to it, and just as they stretched their necks like some kind of bird, Situ Meng finally came.Together with Luo Wu and the servants of the Lin family, he led the twelve puppies bought in Yangzhou out, and there was no opening speech. He only asked one of the tenant farmers to come out with a hoe, and untied the dogs from the leash.

At first, the puppies stayed quietly beside Situ Meng, until the tenant farmer hoeed his hoe into the field under Situ Meng's order, turning up a pile of loose soil and two mice...

Depth of field: "!!!"

He swore that this was the cruelest scene he had ever seen growing up. In the next hour, wherever the hoe went, the mice were turned up together with the soil, but the sun had not had time to leave any trace on them The warm, small and cute rat terriers swarmed up, biting each mouse, and shook their heads wildly after being bitten. When the mouse was bitten by them and shook its head, the spine of the mouse was shattered, and it died instantly, and the body was thrown by the rat terrier immediately step aside.

Twelve rat terriers were divided into two shifts. One hour, 350 seven mice survived.

Not only the depth of field, but everyone present was dumbfounded. Who would have thought that these puppies would be so cruel in the face of mice?Even the tenant who was in charge of digging the ground with the hoe couldn't do it anymore. Seeing the envious puppy in front of him, the hand holding the hoe couldn't help shaking.

Rat terriers only kill mice, but they don't treat mice as food.Because they behaved well, Situ Meng specially asked the servant to kill two pigs to reward them.The servants were more careful when feeding them. After all, the vigorous posture of the puppies in the farmland that day had been deeply engraved in their minds, and they couldn't forget it even if they wanted to.

"It's really amazing!" It's been two days since the rat terrier killed the rat, and every time Depth of Field thinks about it, he still finds it inconceivable, "Such a big rat! Those dogs are short and small, and after biting the rat's neck, it doesn't go away. Let go until the mouse is killed! Accurate, fast, and clean!"

At dinner, he recounted the brutal scene he saw that day. Jing Chun held the bowl in his left hand and the chopsticks in his right, but the mouthful of food could not be put into his mouth. Can you stop talking about the dead body of the mouse..."

Jing Shen gave a "tsk", and finished the meal in twos and twos, "If you don't say it, don't say it, I'll go find the puppy to play with!"

"Hey you! Don't finish the food!"

It took Situ Meng four days to wipe out all the rats in the entire manor. Although there may be fish that slip through the net, there will be no more rats.With the help of the servants and tenant farmers, the corpses of the rats of the family were lined up neatly, and Situ Meng set fire to them.

The tenant farmers saw how powerful these puppies were, and even though they were extremely ferocious when killing rats, they still wanted to keep them.

"That... the young owner... can these puppies be sold to us?" One of the tenants was pushed out by everyone, and asked what they wanted to ask on behalf of the tenants of the manor.Situ Meng recognized that this person was the first farmer he asked when he was about to complete the system task.

"Yes, yes," Situ Meng naturally understood what they were thinking, but these rat terriers were all grown up overseas and had not been re-cultivated locally. It is not easy to tame them. He wanted to grow them in the manor After breeding these rat terriers for two or three generations, let the tenants raise them, so as to prevent the tenants from raising them improperly and being hurt by them. In a few years, I will raise them for you after I tame them."

Seeing the disappointed expressions on the farmers' faces, Situ Meng comforted him again: "Although these puppies are being raised in the Lin Mansion, if you need them, I can also borrow them from you. After all, the farmland is an important property of the manor, and all of you I am a tenant of Chengning Villa, and I will definitely not let this rat infestation happen again!"

Hearing that they can be borrowed, the tenants heaved a sigh of relief. After all, these dogs still need to be fed. Now the owner of the Shaozhuang said that he will lend them when they need it, and the Lin family, that is, the owner of the Shaozhuang himself For feeding, they even save on food for feeding the dogs, which is more cost-effective than raising them by themselves.

The tenant farmers thanked Situ Meng one after another, looking at the puppies behind Situ Meng who were playing with the depth of field, they felt that they were getting cuter.

After dealing with the issue of the rat problem in the manor and the ownership of the rat terriers, Situ Meng turned around and planned to return home. He saw the black girl squatting among a group of puppies. He is the master who feeds himself.

The depth of field heard what Situ Meng said just now, he raised his head and looked at Situ Meng with a pair of amber eyes, "Do these dogs still need training? I think they are already very good at catching mice."

"Catching mice is because it is their nature. They are born to catch mice. But if you want to keep them at home, eat and live with people, you have to train them-for example, they can't hurt people, and they can't treat their masters. Protecting food, not eating raw meat, not being able to serve on the table, not being able to take prey home... These can only be achieved after training, and there are some additional skills, such as listening to commands to sit down, stand up, run, stop, etc. , Only after systematic training can these puppies become our good partners."

As Situ Meng said, he took the twelve puppies up again with ropes. Situ Meng had taught them to wait and follow in place during the few days before staying in the Lin Mansion. These dogs can only be achieved through repeated training, but there is still a long way to go before farmers who have no knowledge in this area can raise them.

As the days went by, Situ Meng accidentally found the culprit that caused the manor to suffer from the rat infestation. As he expected, it was the Ningshan counties who hated him because he burned down the poppy field and had no source of income. scattered farmers.

That day, Situ Meng followed Jingshen to the beach to pick up shells. He heard someone talking in the forest. After listening for a while, it turned out that some scattered farmers were discussing whether rats are useless now and whether they should put some poisonous snakes in the manor.

Hei Niuer seemed to have expected it long ago, she winked with Situ Meng, then got two sea snakes out of nowhere, and threw them directly at them.They were discussing about poisonous snakes, but when they saw two snakes flying in the sky, they subconsciously thought they were poisonous snakes, and jumped away screaming.

Looking at the backs of them running away in embarrassment, Jing Shen was out of breath laughing, Situ Meng saw him like this, so he could only go over and give him a back, "You already knew? I didn't come here today to pick up shells , but let me see the scene with my own eyes, right?"

"Oh! Don't look bitter and hateful! I only found out when I heard what they said by accident. Don't you want revenge? They made your manor almost go bankrupt!"

"That's also because I burned their flowers and cut off their source of income." Situ Meng said as he helped him up, and wiped his hands with a handkerchief to catch the sea snake, "But I still have to thank you, if not If you draw them out, I won't know that it was them who killed me, and I won't be on guard against them in the future."

"Why are you so serious all of a sudden? I'm not doing it for you, I just want to clean them up!" Jing Shen retracted his hand, "Let's go! Go back to eat! I heard that today I'm going to make mapo tofu! Mapo made by your cook The tofu is the best!"
