In the experience of living for nearly a hundred years (the end of life in this world is about 180 years old), Long Lao has always believed seriously and firmly that the exotic beasts are good partners for hunters and explorers, and good helpers for ordinary residents. As for what they eat and how much they eat, when Long Lao was young and struggling, he saved what he didn't have to eat, so he couldn't calculate it. When Long Lao became rich later, his exotic beast partners were also fed by the housekeeper, so he didn't have time to calculate.
Therefore, Mr. Long naively and kindly believed that the appetite of the strange beasts was at most two to three times that of humans.
But when Mr. Long saw that the originally full table of Man Han banquet was divided up by four beasts in an instant, he suddenly felt a little heart twitching. And he thought rather uncalmly that his beast companion died a little early, could it be that he starved to death due to malnutrition? ! Did he almost starve his companion to death? !
This thought made Grandpa Long look at the four of them in a weird way, and he looked at Xiaobai with a look that seemed like he wanted to dissect him. Xiaobai felt that the fried fish in his mouth was a little hard to swallow.
"Old man?" Jin Yu saw that Long Lao's face looked a little strange, so he spoke. At this time, there were two plates full of delicacies in front of him, and of course there were three plates in front of the boss. The four beasts tacitly did not grab the food in front of them. In fact, they did not have the courage to grab it - the big boss was watching them. If they dared to grab the boss's food, they would eventually become the boss's food. No explanation. They would be very honest and would never cross the line.
"...Ah, it's okay, the chef is still cooking in the kitchen. We can provide for ten tables!" Elder Long knew that he had lost his composure and spoke quickly. However, after he finished speaking, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Bai and said, "Xiao Jin... your Xiao Bai is so small, can he eat so much? Will he have indigestion?"
Hearing this, Jin Yu smiled nonchalantly: "Old man, you are worrying too much. Xiaobai has a big appetite. He is a foodie... He doesn't even care about this little bit of food."
When Grandpa Long heard this, his face changed a little, and he continued to ask: "Do all the exotic beasts have the same big appetite as them?" He had to ask this point clearly no matter what, because he was very concerned about the premature death of his exotic beasts.
Hearing Grandpa Long's question, Jin Yu was a little surprised why he asked such a question. But this was a visitor to someone else's house, and since the head of the family asked a question, he had to answer it anyway. But before Jin Yu could open his mouth to answer, Long Changxiao, who was sitting next to Grandpa Long and looking at his grandfather's face and basically guessed the general idea, spoke first: "Grandpa, I can answer this. The maximum appetite of alien beasts can reach ten times that of humans. But this refers to the result of them eating freely. Under normal circumstances, if there is no need to store energy or conditions do not allow it, the appetite of alien beasts can be reduced. When it drops to the lowest point, their appetite can be half of that of humans. Of course, this will definitely affect the performance of the alien beasts' strength to a certain extent, but it is not a big deal. Under normal circumstances, the food that alien beasts eat every day only needs to be 2-3 times that of humans."
So after hearing his grandson's explanation, Grandpa Long finally breathed a sigh of relief and put down his hanging heart. When he was in the most difficult time before, his alien beast ate the same food as him. In the end, when his alien beast retired, it was provided with good food and drink. I think its early death must have been due to exhaustion from the previous struggle...
Thinking of this, Grandpa Long couldn't help but sigh, and then looked at the miserable white bear who was aggrievedly watching Baozi and Xiaoxue eating heartily while he could only eat various liquid foods. After seeing this, he said to his grandson, "Xiao'er, you must take good care of Baiwei. He has saved you several times."
Upon hearing this, Long Changxiao naturally nodded, and then considerately put a chicken leg that his big white bear had gotten from somewhere into his own bowl, and at the same time brought a bowl of white porridge and placed it in front of the big white bear.
Facing the miserable white bear, Long Changxiao said, "Bai Wei, you can't eat meat now. You need to eat liquid food."
Hearing this, the white bear angrily used his claws to slap away the chicken leg bone that Baozi accidentally threw at him, and then cursed the doctor who treated him and told him that he could only eat liquid food for the rest of his life! ! In addition, let the four guys in front of him who were gloating over his misfortune and making him angry to death be choked to death by the bone! ! Damn it! It is not kind for a strange beast to eat meat in front of a sick beast and eat it with a mouth full of oil and a fat belly! !
But no matter how the white bear cursed, it couldn't stop Little White and Big White from eating like crazy. In the end, these four foodies ate up half a month's worth of food prepared by the housekeeper. Even so, when these four idiots heard that the storage freezer was empty, they still had a look of regret in their eyes - they were planning to take some away for the guys in the store! Although the food made by the cute creature Zhiwei Beast was also delicious, it was high-quality ingredients, and the guys in the store rarely got to eat it.
Old Master Long looked at these four people and was a little speechless even though he had been through many battles. He turned to look at Jin Yu and asked a question that he was very concerned about.
"Xiao Jin, how come you have four A-level exotic beasts? I just heard your conversation with Xiao'er. Did you open an exotic beast pet shop?"
Jin Yu wiped his mouth and nodded quickly after hearing this: "Yes, I am good at taming and caring for exotic animals, and I particularly like exotic animals, so I thought of picking up those abandoned exotic animals and taking care of them. If I can take good care of them, I will let them stay in the store to do something, or if they have a favorite owner, I will charge them some adoption fees. For those that I can't take good care of, I don't want them to be exposed in the wilderness, so I thought of burying or cremating them."
When Jin Yu said these words, his expression was quite serious and even a little sacred, which made Old Master Long sigh in his heart.
In fact, he knew very well that a major problem in the world today was the arbitrarily abandoning, killing or abusing alien beasts. However, in the face of this problem, when there were many alien beasts, he would just sigh and not really do anything. Even though he felt that if this continued, there would be a huge problem in the future when the number of alien beasts decreased or the alien beasts suddenly rebelled, Grandpa Long did not want to do anything.
After all, this situation has existed for at least thousands of years, and there has been no change in the world, so how do we know that this disaster will happen in their time? In addition, the current situation of humans not caring much about alien beasts is already deeply rooted. If nothing major happens, humans will never change. If most people don't change, no matter how much they do, there will be no obvious effect.
But although Mr. Long thought so, it did not mean that he opposed or looked down on Jin Yu's attitude and what he did. On the contrary, Mr. Long believed that the existence of Jin Yu was extremely precious. At least in such a world, there were still people doing things that were beneficial to the alien beasts. Such people might play an extremely important role in the future conflicts and disasters between alien beasts and humans. Even if it was just a little bit, it was a seed of hope, wasn't it?
Grandpa Long looked at the trusting and dependent eyes of Dabai and Xiaobai when they looked at Jin Yu, and thought about the increasingly cold eyes of many exotic beasts when they looked at humans, and sighed slightly. At least, the exotic beasts that had come into contact with this kid would always have a little good impression of humans in their hearts, and would not turn against each other in the future.
"Haha! I've always said that you're pretty good! This pet store is great. It turns trash into treasure and can take care of injured animals. Yeah, boy, work hard to make your store famous. Then both the animals and you will be blessed!"
Jin Yu blushed a little when he heard Mr. Long's praise, and laughed twice, then hugged Xiaobai and abused him. Qi Qinglin, who was sitting next to him, saw his partner's shy look and his eyes darkened. Well, he thought that his partner's expression should only be seen by himself.
Then Qiboss looked at Old Long again. He could sense Old Long's worry about certain things, and he sneered at Old Long's statement that "disasters may not necessarily happen in our time."
What things must not happen? The alien beasts have been enslaved by humans for nearly five thousand years. What terrible treatment have they not suffered in these five thousand years? Many alien beasts have even become extinct like ancient animals because of human capture! Other alien beasts that could not bear it all ran to the deserted planets and struggled to survive.
The alien beasts are not the simple animals without brains and thoughts in the ancient world. They are intelligent and powerful. There are even "kings" among the alien beasts whose wisdom and strength exceed those of most people. When these kings awaken in anger because of human behavior, or the alien beasts' resentment towards humans reaches the highest level, the alien beasts, which are almost ten times the number of humans, will bring the most terrifying disaster of ferocious beasts to humans in ten thousand years!
Think about the fierce beasts deep in the desert planet. Their existence itself is the most direct expression of their resentment towards humans. What is impossible? If humans do not want to be forced into a desperate situation by the combined backlash of strange beasts and fierce beasts in a few years or decades, then it is best for all humans to treat strange beasts like Jin Yu from now on.
But, do you think this is possible? If I tell anyone, even the brain-dead beast won't believe it.
