Chapter 36 This wild boar doesn't look like a good pig!
The little wild boar woke up groggily.
It had forgotten what happened, only remembering that it seemed to be flying, and flying very high.
It smelled a peculiar fragrance that rushed from its nose to the top of its head, making it instantly crave that scent.
Its limbs began to flap rapidly, then it quickly stood up. Before its mind could even react, its body had already rushed to the food bowl and begun to feast.
Xu Ran was stunned.
The moment the delicious pig feed was placed down, the little wild boar kicked its legs, stood up, and rushed over to eat.
There was no sign of fainting at all.
[Mission to rescue the injured alien beast is complete.]
[Reward: Beast loyalty greatly increased.]
Current loyalty level: 95
[Once loyalty reaches 100, a contract can be formed to make you a battle pet in the apocalypse.]
The system panel popped up again.
Xu Ran herself was a little taken aback.
Is that all?
A miracle doctor!
I didn't expect this little guy to be so tough; he was completely unharmed after taking that kick!
Wild boars are no joke when it comes to defense.
The little guy had been hungry for a long time and started eating like crazy.
Just then, Little Gray and Little Yellow returned.
When Little Gray saw a new companion, it immediately approached the wild boar out of curiosity.
The wild boar completely ignored it, and might not even have noticed Little Gray, continuing to concentrate on eating.
A look of confusion appeared on Xiao Hui's face.
Xu Ran even saw Xiao Hui frowning.
Clearly, Little Gray was taken aback by the wild boar's rough and dry way of eating.
It was as if they hadn't eaten in eight hundred years.
In fact, wild boars have never eaten much bran, and the pig feed that Xu Ran cooked was top-quality pig feed, which was a delicacy for wild boars.
That's why the wild boar ate so wildly.
Little Grey turned to look at Xu Ran, letting out a sob, as if to ask:
"Who is this?"
Xu Ran explained:
"A new friend."
Little Grey loves making friends, but this time, it hesitated.
This wild boar doesn't look like a healthy pig!
Xu Ran thought the little wild boar was quite good-looking.
The main reason is that wild boars have shorter hair and lighter color when they are young.
We encountered a group of wild boar pups, each one looking like a tiny melon seed.
She's fairly cute.
As they grow up, their fur gets longer, coarser, and messier, which makes them look ugly.
Xu Ran plans to groom its fur regularly after it grows up, trimming it evenly so it looks more majestic.
The little yellow ox had a very good temperament. It even lowered its head to sniff the little wild boar, and when it realized that the boar wasn't paying attention to it, it turned its head and walked away.
Little Gray watched for a while, then, finding it uninteresting, beckoned Little Yellow Ox to leave the yard and go play.
Xu Ran continued to watch the wild boar.
Soon, the wild boar had eaten all the pig feed in the trough, and it finally regained its senses.
It ran to Xu Ran's feet and stayed there.
The pig couldn't lift its head, so Xu Ran squatted down to look at it. The little wild boar was very calm and showed no signs of agitation.
It probably doesn't know who kicked it just now.
The mission is complete, the little wild boar's loyalty has reached 95, and there's no need to worry about it running away.
Since there was still work to be done on the farm, Xu Ran ignored it and went to inspect the situation at the greenhouse.
The little wild boar followed closely behind it.
He's a perfect little follower.
Xu Ran noticed this scene and let it be.
Xu Ran arrived outside the greenhouse.
Zhang Wen and Zhao Shan are inspecting the ventilation openings and reinforcing the roof.
Rain has a significant impact on greenhouses.
On the one hand, rainwater can enter the greenhouse through the ventilation openings, and if rainwater enters the greenhouse, it can easily cause the seedlings to be soaked and die.
On the other hand, rainwater accumulating on the roof could crush the greenhouse.
Often, the roof of the shed would sag, creating a water-collecting area. It would take using sticks to push it up from the inside to drain the water.
These all need to be prevented.
That's how it is in agriculture; you have to rely on the heavens, but you also have to fight against them.
"Zhang Wen, how is it?"
Xu Ran asked Zhang Wen a question.
"No problem, I've added a rainproof film to the ventilation opening, so rainwater can't get in."
"We're reinforcing the roof and clearing away the weeds and stuff."
"We'll have to call Li Wu and the others over in a bit, and then we can clean the drainage ditch. It's been a long time since we cleaned it, and there's been a lot of grass and leaves stuck in it."
Zhang Wen responded immediately.
"Okay, they'll be back soon. I'll talk to them in a bit."
Xu Ran nodded.
At this moment, Zhao Shan noticed the wild boar at Xu Ran's feet and immediately asked:
"Ran-ge, what's that next to your feet? A wild boar?"
Xu Ran nodded. "I found it in the sunflower field just now. I fed it some pig feed and it followed me. It's fine, I'll just let it roam around for fun."
Zhang Wen and Zhao Shan were both surprised to hear Xu Ran's words, but they didn't say anything more.
Employees are generally very clear about their boss's preferences.
This is considered a required course.
Xu Ran likes to keep animals, and everyone knows that the animals are all friendly towards him.
Seeing wild boars appear still seems a bit far-fetched.
Wang Hai and Zhao Shan arrived late. They had never experienced anything like giant pandas before. Later, they saw a video of Xu Ran touching a giant panda on Li Wu's phone, which left them completely stunned.
At that time, Zhao Shan said:
"How powerful must Ran-ge's connections be? He can even keep pandas as pets?"
Li Wu nodded: "Then it has to be tough."
People have gradually gotten used to it.
That's why the farm is doing so well.
The sky grew increasingly gloomy.
At this moment, Li Wu and Wang Hai returned with the drone.
"Ran-ge, we searched the sunflower field, but there was no other movement or wild boar sightings."
"There should only be this one small one. I don't know how it got in. Our fence is all in good condition. Big wild boars can't get in."
Li Wu reported and instructed.
"Okay, that's fine. I'm just worried that wild boars might ruin my sunflower."
"Put the drone away and let's clean the drainage ditches. The drainage ditches in several greenhouses haven't been cleaned in a long time, so we don't want the water to overflow."
Xu Ran explained.
"Ran-ge, no problem, leave it to us."
Li Wu agreed.
"Let's get started!"
Wang Hai also went along with it.
Everyone got busy.
Before the rain comes.
While I was busy, the aroma from the kitchen wafted out, making me a little hungry.
That's how it is when you do manual labor; you get hungry quickly.
The weather was gloomy and a bit stuffy, but the farm was windy, and every now and then a gust of wind would blow and instantly cool things down.
Everything is proceeding smoothly.
The irrigation canal project was left to the employees; Xu Ran, as the farm owner, only needed to come and check on the results later.
He wasn't idle either; he had other things to do.
To prepare hay for the sheep in the pen, some hay needs to be cut and stored next to the pen.
We also need to feed the little yellow chicks and herd the other adult chickens back to the coop.
We need to call Little Gray's family; they'll go and drive them away.
For employees, rain is a good thing.
There's not much work to do; after inspecting the greenhouses, we can rest.
Xu Ran pondered that he should go to the mountains again after the rain stopped. Picking mushrooms could earn him one or two thousand yuan a day, so why not make some money?
After all, he is still poor. Even though he just sold a whole greenhouse of tomatoes, he only has 100,000 yuan more in savings.
Running a large farm with this amount of cash is still a challenge.
Of course, the pressure wasn't too great, since he didn't take out any loans. Many people in agriculture have to take out loans to farm, and that's when things get really tough.
Before I knew it, it was past six in the afternoon.
The food in the cafeteria is ready.
Everyone finished their work, washed their hands, and took their own plates and chopsticks, ready to eat.
The food in the cafeteria is pretty good, especially since we've made money selling tomatoes recently, which has improved the food even more.
The atmosphere in the cafeteria was excellent.
Xu Ran also arrived at the cafeteria; the little ones were all outside.
The little wild boar wanted to come in, but Xu Ran called out to it to stay outside.
This guy's IQ isn't quite there yet; he stood at the door, looking inside with an anxious expression.
However, it obeyed Xu Ran's orders and did not come in.
Another busy day has passed.
Today’s new pet +1
The farm is becoming increasingly lively.
