The big dog looked around with alert eyes, showing some of its former bravery and intelligence, but its age was still evident from its body shape.
The man handed the leash to Su Tao and saluted her:
"I now hand over to you City Defense Force military dog number 036, Xue Dao."
Su Tao solemnly took the leash. Xue Dao sniffed around her and then lay down at her feet obediently as if he had smelled her scent.
The man said, "Commander Pei let it smell your stuff before sending it here. It's very smart and can recognize people."
Su Tao was very surprised. She squatted down and rubbed the big dog's head, then looked up and asked:
"What does it usually eat? Can it eat raw meat?"
"Raw meat is also possible, but the cost is a bit high. We usually only feed it food that is low in salt and suitable for humans. After all, it is the end of the world. But actually, according to pre-apocalyptic standards, it is better for large dogs to eat raw bones and meat."
Su Tao’s first thought was that no matter how hard life was, she would not let the children suffer. Even if she had no means to eat, she would still make arrangements for Xue Dao and Zhima.
Get meat!
There is still some time before Zhuang Wan pays the next rent, and she feels embarrassed to ask people to pay in advance.
Now she can only pray that after the food store is upgraded, it will have things like pet food as a temporary solution.
But it costs 100,000 federal coins to upgrade once, and she only has a little over 90,000 federal coins now.
Why is she always so poor? Not only can she not save any money, but she also spends more than she earns.
"What are you worried about?" Shi Zijin's voice suddenly came.
The person who brought Xue Dao saluted Shi Zijin and got into the car to say goodbye.
Xue Dao sniffed twice, smelling a familiar scent, and then lay down to rest again.
Su Tao said: "Didn't I tell you yesterday not to talk to me? We're in a cold war, take it seriously."
Shi Zijin: "When did I agree?"
Su Tao was stunned for a moment, thinking back to yesterday when he had indeed not agreed. After a moment of silence, she suddenly said:
"Lend me 10,000 federal coins and I'll agree to your request for peace yesterday."
Shi Zijin's expression was very subtle: "Boss Su also has times when he is short of money?"
"Don't look down on me. I'm not afraid to admit my poverty. I tell you when I'm in trouble, without hiding anything. If you hear me, please lend a helping hand."
Shi Zijin could hardly hold back his laughter:
"The boss of Taoyang, a major water user, has business dealings with Gu Mingchi and is short of 10,000 yuan? I'm afraid no one will believe it if I tell them."
"Just believe it."
"I believe it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Tao received a transfer of a full 100,000 federal coins!
She immediately became shy: "Boss Shi, this is a bit too much, you are too loving."
Having said that, I have no intention of going back.
Shi Zijin knew her little tricks but didn't expose them.
"Make peace?"
"Reconcile!"
Looking at her happily walking in the sunshine with the big dog, Shi Zijin smiled helplessly and shook his head.
Su Tao led Xue Dao to her room. As soon as she opened the door, Hei Zhima meowed, jumped two meters away, stood on the back of the sofa, and bared his teeth at Xue Dao.
Bai Zhima was so scared that he crawled under the sofa and refused to come out.
Xue Dao was indeed an old military dog, he was very calm, sniffed around slowly, and when he didn't sense any danger, he lay down next to the sofa and took a nap.
Su Tao brought Hei Zhima over and tried to reason with it:
"The new guy is Grandpa Snow Blade. He's family and won't hurt you. Don't be mean. Go and smell Grandpa, get familiar with him, and be obedient."
Heizhima understood, took a few cat steps reluctantly, and looked back at Su Tao.
Su Tao urged it: "Go quickly."
Heizhima slowly approached, stretched out his little paw and quickly patted Xuedao.
Xue Dao pricked up his ears without opening his eyes, as if he knew that this little kitten was nothing to be afraid of.
Seeing that there was no danger, Black Sesame moved closer, and Little Pink put his nose close to sniff.
Xue Dao suddenly opened his eyes, hugged it tightly with his big claws, and stretched out his big tongue to wash its head.
Black sesame: “?”
Su Tao took the opportunity to pull Bai Zhima out from under the sofa, but as soon as she did so, Bai Zhima hugged her neck and shouted "Mom".
So I gave up.
After the two cats and the dog played for a while, Su Tao quickly opened the system food store and spent 100,000 federal coins to upgrade the food store to level 2.
This upgrade made Su Tao discover a new world.
The secondary food store has detailed classifications, including snacks area, grain and oil area, tea and beverage area, dry goods area, and pet area.
Su Tao happily clicked into the pet section and saw two types of machines inside, one was a pet food self-service machine and the other was a pet canned food vending machine.
The price of both machines is 3,000 federal coins.
Su Tao spent six thousand to buy it without thinking and put it in the living room for the time being.
Curious Black Sesame saw the new thing and immediately came over to smell it.
Su Tao didn't chase it away and started to restock according to the instructions. There were many kinds of pet food in the self-service machine, and she only chose dog food for the elderly and cat food.
The price is not cheap. It costs her 5,000 federal coins to buy two kinds of food at a time, and they can only last for two weeks. It costs her 10,000 federal coins for food a month.
More expensive than what she eats.
Su Tao poured some into Sesame's bowl and tried it first. The main ingredients were meat and vegetable fiber, which was very healthy. It smelled fragrant, so it should taste good.
The black sesame and white sesame smelled the scent at the same time and immediately came out.
White sesame seeds are not afraid of the snow knife. They jump over its back and eat the food very quickly. They eat so much that they want to put their heads into the bowl.
Xue Dao sniffed, his ears perked up, and his eyes opened.
Su Tao took a bowl and gave it to it, and poured some dog food specially for senior dogs. Judging from the ingredients, the food seemed to be richer in protein, more delicious and easier to digest.
Xue Dao was indeed a trained military dog. He did not pounce on his food like a vicious dog, but instead sniffed and circled around, wagging his tail rapidly, as if he was drooling over the food.
It looked at Su Tao, then at the dog food in the bowl.
Su Tao immediately understood that it was waiting for an order, so she said, "Eat!"
Xue Dao immediately opened his mouth and began to inhale violently.
After the three masters had finished eating, Su Tao began to comb their fur one by one, checking for bugs, tear troughs, chins, etc., and tricked them into drinking water.
In order to make it easier to bathe them, Su Tao simply removed her hot spring and replaced it with a large ground-level pool specifically for washing dogs and cats.
Raising a pet is like raising a child; it requires patience and love.
Xuedao also seemed to know that its new owner loved it very much. At first, it followed Su Tao wherever she went, and even competed with the sesames for a sleeping space at night.
Su Tao woke up in the middle of the night and felt so hot that it felt like she was in a sauna. She turned on the light and saw a double bed. Xuedao was sleeping on most of the bed, with two sesame seeds sleeping on the pillow.
She was squeezed into a corner and sweated all over.
It's time to install air conditioning.
Su Tao got up yawning, found an air conditioner in the home improvement store, gritted her teeth, and picked the most expensive one, a central air conditioner that cost 12,000 federal dollars.
Only one needs to be installed on each floor, and every tenant can enjoy it, and the public areas and corridors can be taken care of.
