After giving the blueprint of the javelin to the blacksmith, the image of the speargun actually flashed in Zhang Ze's mind.

He has played fishing and hunting, and is very interested in this sport.

Now that his body is young, he can actually use fishing bait to attract valuable fish, and then hunt with a spear gun. By then, he may be able to make a fortune just by selling sea red spots.

Compared with other fish species, sea red spots are rare and rare. If he fishes and hunts alone, even if he fishes several hundred kilograms a day, there will be no problem.

Now it's not a problem if he doesn't have a speargun. He can make a wooden speargun himself.

But after thinking about the great white shark, Zhang Ze gave up the idea. It was not the right time yet.

With just over a hundred kilograms of meat, he should be able to make a great white shark burp.

Not to mention a six-meter great white shark, a three-meter one is very dangerous.

After explaining the matter about the javelin, Zhang Ze returned to the village with one more important thing to do, which was to find a suitable dog to watch the boat for him.

Some well-off families in Qinghe Village will store some food in the warehouse. In order to prevent things from being stolen at night, they will keep a native dog.

Native dogs are easy to raise well, just give them some bran and other things to eat.

But they are very dedicated to their duties and can take good care of homes and homes.

Zhang Ze remembers that with the development of the country, the conditions of most people in the village will become better in a few years because everyone has the habit of storing food.

But by the same token, the scoundrels in the village will never disappear, and there are quite a few petty thieves at night.

In addition, the restrictions on raising chickens and ducks were no longer at that time. There were many families raising these in rural areas, and they also needed dogs to guard them to prevent weasels from stealing the chickens. Therefore, more and more families kept dogs.

But just because the conditions are better, it doesn’t mean that raising a dog really doesn’t cost anything.

The dogs in some families did not have enough to eat, so they looked for food everywhere, and gradually became stray dogs, and more bites occurred.

Then the dog-beating incident occurred. Zhang Ze did not participate at the time, but he saw several dog-beaters fighting with the villagers who kept the dogs.

Later, there were fewer dogs in the village, and dog beatings no longer occurred.

Most native dogs, that is, Chinese garden dogs, are very territorial and may bark when strangers pass by the door of the yard.

The pastoral dogs of later generations that smile when they see strangers seem to be hard to find now.

This kind of training is too fierce, and Zhang Ze feels that it is not suitable for him.

He wanted to find a smarter native dog with a better temperament, so that he could remind them of situations on the ship in the future and not bite people easily.

According to memory, Zhang Ze came to the door of a small courtyard.

In the yard, there is a woman in her forties or fifties who is drying sweet potatoes. Next to her is a native dog, a rhubarb, resting on its stomach.

It was very alert. When it found a stranger outside the door, it raised its head and kept staring at him. It was alert but showed no hostility for the time being.

Zhang Ze smiled, his target this time was this rhubarb, mainly because this rhubarb left a deep impression on him.

In his previous life, he often saw this rhubarb raising its children. Sometimes if the owner forgot something, he would immediately go home and bring it to him if he told it. He could even jump into the river to catch fish when he was hungry.

He is a very smart pastoral dog and has the potential to become an Internet celebrity dog ​​in future generations.

Of course, it doesn't matter to Zhang Ze whether he is an internet celebrity or not, what he wants is that the dog is smart enough.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here specially. Wouldn't he just catch a stray dog ​​on the road?

At least the loyalty aspect is the same!

"Are you...Aze?" He was such a big man standing at the entrance of the courtyard, so it was impossible for the middle-aged woman in the courtyard not to miss him.

"It's me, Aunt Ye." Zhang Ze smiled and nodded.

The surname Ye is also another popular surname in the village.

Qinghe Village is mainly composed of people with the three surnames Zhang, Ye and Wang.

In fact, in other surrounding villages, these three surnames account for the majority, but there are also more surnames such as Nan, Chen, and Zhao.

"Hey, come in, come in, why are you standing at the door?" Ye Fang warmly greeted him into the house.

Seeing his master's attitude, the big yellow dog lay back down again, but his eyes looked at him from time to time, obviously curious about him.

Zhang Ze entered the yard and after chatting for a while, he made his purpose clear: "Aunt Ye, I'm here just to discuss with you whether you can sell me this big yellow dog?"

"Rhubarb?" Ye Fang was actually guessing the purpose of his visit, but she never imagined that he was actually here to buy a native dog that was found everywhere in the countryside. Her expression was full of shock for a moment.

Hearing his name, Big Yellow's ears immediately stood up, and at the same time he stood up and came to her legs, wagging his tail continuously.

But this time it was Zhang Ze's turn to be shocked, because he discovered something was wrong with Dahuang's belly. It seemed like he had just given birth to a baby and was still breastfeeding?

Ye Fang looked at the rhubarb that pleased her and said she wanted to sell it, but she really didn't feel reluctant to part with it.

In her eyes, Rhubarb plays the role of housekeeper and nurse, and any dog ​​can take its place.

She was simply incredulous that someone would offer to sell a dog. After all, if she wanted a dog, she would give a stray dog ​​some food and it would follow.

But Zhang Ze did not choose stray dogs. In fact, another reason was that he was afraid that they would carry various viruses that would affect people, and he was even more afraid of rabies.

"Really or not, do you really want to buy our rhubarb?"

Zhang Ze smiled and nodded, confirming again: "Of course it's true. I've encountered your rhubarb several times before, and I saw it catch fish in the water. I need a dog to watch the fishing boats, and I need a dog with good water skills.

Rhubarb fits the bill quite well.”

"If you are willing to pay five yuan to buy rhubarb, Aunt Ye, I can give you the money now."

In the latter sentence, his voice was much lowered when he spoke, to prevent anyone nearby from hearing him.

Otherwise, he is afraid that before he can go out, a bunch of people will hold the dog and want to sell it to him.

"Five dollars!!!" Ye Fang was shocked again.

Are native dogs worth anything? They are not worth a penny.

Even if you kill it and eat it, it's the same. Dog meat needs heavy ingredients, otherwise it won't taste good.

Of course, to the villagers, free dog meat is another way of saying, just buy it.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ye Fang's breathing was a little rapid, and he almost didn't agree. In the countryside, their family could not earn much money a year, and five yuan was enough for them.

Very much.

At this time, the sounds of several puppies sounded in the room, which suddenly dispersed her emotions.

Zhang Ze had already made a judgment when he saw Rhubarb's appearance, but now when he heard the sound of the puppies, he was immediately sure that Rhubarb had indeed given birth.

He was impressed by Dahuang's intelligence, but he couldn't pay attention to a dog all the time. Naturally, he didn't know whether it had given birth.

Ye Fang showed a hint of embarrassment after hearing the puppy's voice: "Aze, if you want to buy rhubarb, you have to take away the puppies in my house, otherwise rhubarb won't follow you."

After saying that, she looked a little worried.

The puppy was noisy and howling early in the morning every day, which was quite annoying, so she was not sure whether the other party still wanted a dog.

"How many puppies are there?" Zhang Ze did not answer her question, but asked curiously.

If there are too many puppies, he really won’t want them. If he gives them away, no one will want them, and he can’t throw them away.

There is more than one smart and docile dog, Rhubarb, but I was more impressed by it, so I chose it first.

"No more, no more, just two. There were originally five, but the other three all died." Ye Fang quickly led him into the house, and then Zhang Ze saw two little puppies that seemed to have just opened their eyes.

He is crawling on the ground and cannot stand on his limbs.

One is yellow, and the other one has four iron eyes covered with gold. It is a kind of pastoral dog that is very similar to a Rottweiler. Even though it will be one size smaller than a Rottweiler when it grows up, it will not be as strong.

Rhubarb also followed in at this time, touched the baby with his mouth, and then lay down on his side to feed the baby.

"There are only two, so that's no problem." Zhang Ze took out five yuan from his arms and handed it to her.

Seeing that he actually spent five yuan to buy a dog, Ye Fang suddenly felt at ease and immediately believed most of the rumors in the village. Zhang Ze was really rich and could spend five yuan to buy a dog without blinking an eye.

The original surprise of five dollars suddenly diluted it a lot for some reason.

An idea suddenly came to her mind, so she did not accept the money, but said: "Aze, can you wait, Auntie, I still have to tell your uncle Ye about selling the dog."

Zhang Ze was stunned and didn't understand why she suddenly regretted it, but he still nodded understandingly: "Okay, then I'll do other things first and come back later."

It was impossible to prepare only one dog, he also needed to prepare one for his uncle and the others, and it also had to be docile.

He also bought the other dog from someone else. He asked the other person to ask for it, but the other person only asked for three yuan.

Just when he was speechless about whether the price of rhubarb was too high, the other party thought that he disliked the high price and took the initiative to lower the price by one dollar.

So he finally spent two yuan to buy a newly adult calico dog. This dog also had a docile personality. Zhang Ze took it to Zhang Qinghe's house and kept it there.

On the other side, Ye Fang quickly went out and found the man and his two sons who were working.

Zhang Ze came to buy a dog today and told them the idea that suddenly occurred to her.

Ye Fang's two sons looked at each other in confusion after hearing this. Her eldest son couldn't help but ask: "Mom, you know what Zhang Ze is doing outside, so you let us follow him, what if he does something speculative?"

Ye Fang's man, Ye Luping, shook his head when he heard this: "No one in the village reported him before, but he turned out not to be a good person. The youngest son of the captain's family is currently doing things with Zhang Ze. If there is a situation, the captain will let this person be the last person."

The little son who is in pain will follow?"

"Following Aze is definitely better than farming in the village."

Although Ye Luping is just a farmer, it does not mean that he is stupid.
