August was the hottest time in Beijing.
In a village near Yanjiao, two aunts sandwiched Rongzi in the middle, forcing him to look at the two drooping ducks in front of them.
"Xiao Rong, take a look, maybe their duck has made my duck sick. Ever since their duck came to my house, my female duck has stopped laying eggs!"
"Bullshit! Your duck is just like a slut. It can't let go of a male duck. What does it have to do with my baby? Your duck is sick. After my duck ate a bite of your food, it started to lose its feathers when it came back."
"Oh, I can't live like this. I'm relying on the duck eggs to make money. Once this duck is sick, our whole family will have to starve for half a year..." The aunt here wiped away her tears and just started to cry, but the aunt over there covered her tears with a shout.
"How heartless! We only have one male duck for breeding and now it's gone! How are the ducklings going to be born in the second half of this year? How are the female ducks going to nest? Rather than waiting to starve to death, I'd rather hang myself in front of the village chief's door with my 80-year-old mother!" "
Oh my god, I can't live anymore!"
The two of them put on a big show, and many villagers gathered around to watch the fun. From time to time, they sighed and shook their heads at the two groups of wilted ducks.
"Don't say that, these two groups of ducks look pretty weak, I hope they won't die."
Can't die...
Hearing these three words, the two older sisters cried even harder, as if the ducks were not sick, but had accidentally lost their mates.
Rong Ziyin opened his mouth several times but failed to get a word in. He simply didn't join in the conversation and squatted down to carefully examine the two groups of ducks.
In the end, the noise was too outrageous. Seeing how lively it was, he hurried to the village committee and called the village chief to mediate.
The village chief was a good-natured person. When he saw the two people crying, he hurried to persuade them, "Hey, female comrades are just full of emotions. Well, don't cry first. Isn't there a veterinarian from the animal husbandry station? What are you afraid of? Our Doctor Rong is a top student from the city."
As he spoke, the village chief patted Rong Ziyin on the shoulder, "Doctor Rong, what's wrong with our ducks?"
Finally, the noise stopped. Rong Ziyin stood up, glanced at the village chief, and answered slowly, "They are sick."
"..." This was probably nonsense. Not to mention the village chief, even the two aunties who were watching the excitement fell silent instantly.
Rong Ziyin clearly saw a line of bullet screens floating above the heads of all of them - [Awkward Value +1]
The system in his mind promptly issued a reminder sound: "Total gold coins obtained are 56~ [National Treasure-style cute.jpg]"
Rong Ziyin calmly accepted the system's cute emoticons and turned his attention back to the two groups of ducks.
It was all an unprovoked disaster.
Rong Ziyin was a top student in the Department of Veterinary Medicine of the Agricultural University of Science and Technology, and he received national scholarships for three consecutive years. He was originally recommended to study for a bachelor's degree and a doctorate, but at the last moment, he was framed by a villain and inexplicably fell into a usury entanglement.
He called the police and went to court, but in the end, he lost his admission qualification due to his poor moral character.
The only good thing was that with the court as the prosecutor, the loan shark stopped coming to the school and started sending text messages instead.
But even so, Rong Ziyin's ending was not very bright. He was destined to be a pillar of the scientific research circle in the future, but he was forced to work as a veterinarian in this small animal husbandry station where no one lives. Rong Ziyin himself ended up with a debt of 200,000 yuan.
"What a pity." Rong Ziyin's tutor couldn't help sighing. After all, with Rong Ziyin's knowledge, it was really a waste of talent for him to stay in an animal husbandry station in a small village.
But before sending Rong Ziyin off, the teacher still encouraged him a lot, "The village also has its advantages. Interpersonal relationships are simple, you should not forget to study hard there, and if you are really short of money, the teacher can also help you out. That usury will definitely be exposed."
"Come back early, the teacher is waiting for you here."
"Thank you, teacher." Rong Ziyin bowed respectfully to his teacher, but after leaving the office, his steps were very cautious.
He understood that the teacher's words were just comfort, and he himself might not be able to come back in this life.
Two hundred thousand, a veterinarian, unless there is some kind of adventure, it will take five years without food and drink to pay it back. As for the clues the teacher mentioned, he would definitely look for them. Whether he could find them or not, Rong Ziyin himself was not sure.
In a word, the future is uncertain.
With a long breath, Rong Ziyin forced himself to calm down quickly. At this moment, his mobile phone suddenly vibrated. Rong Ziyin opened it and saw a picture of a bloody severed hand. The picture only appeared for one second, and after one second, the message was automatically destroyed.
He knew that this was a warning from the loan shark. But Rong Ziyin was just an ordinary poor student. He had tried all the methods he could use and could only endure it for the time being.
But when Rong Ziyin returned to the dormitory to pack his things and prepared to go to the village to report, he was ridiculed by his roommates in the dormitory.
"Oh! You are indeed a top student. You can get a guaranteed job in universities these days!"
"That's right, second brother. This is all funded by the school. After all, if you don't work hard, you won't be able to pay back the high-interest loan of 200,000 yuan! Hehehe."
Rong Ziyin has heard similar ridicules since he was a child. They are nothing more than using his grades and poor family conditions to hit him, a "weird" who doesn't follow the crowd.
Rong Ziyin's parents died in an accident very early. He didn't buy insurance and didn't have any compensation. So he had to study and work hard to support himself at a young age. It was hard to survive, so he naturally didn't bother to pay attention to these rumors.
But now it is different. Rong Ziyin and the classmates in the dormitory have parted ways. They will probably never see each other again, and the word face is not that important.
What's more, he lost his bright future for nothing. He owed a huge debt of 200,000 before he even left school. Even someone as open-minded as Rong Ziyin couldn't help but get angry.
So, Rong Ziyin, who was always silent, smiled gently at the guys in the dormitory after packing his luggage, and said something very practical, "The make-up exam is coming soon. Can you pass it?"
"..."
"As for the job assignment, I was actually quite surprised. But what I didn't expect was that it would be so difficult for you to get a college diploma."
"Good luck everyone. I'm leaving first."
It was a sharp remark. The dormitory was quiet. The poor students stared at Rong Ziyin with eyes that seemed to want to eat him alive.
But all these have nothing to do with Rong Ziyin who left with his luggage. After leaving school, he is about to start a new life. The most important thing at the moment is to find a way to clear his debt of 200,000 yuan owed by loan sharks.
Be steady and don't panic. Rong Ziyin counseled himself in his heart. Although he had bad luck at the beginning, he had gotten used to it since he was a child.
After all, fortune or misfortune depends on one's mentality.
Perhaps it was because of this open-mindedness that Rong Ziyin's luck really changed this time.
After four hours of travel, Rong Ziyin finally arrived at the village. As soon as he entered the village animal husbandry station, a sentence magically appeared in Rong Ziyin's mind.
The general meaning was that he was compensated by the Heaven because of his bad luck -
Heaven: The first item you touch will determine the direction of your golden finger. Follow the guidance of the system and you will become a leading technical god in the industry.
It sounds pretty good. However, after Rong Ziyin took a look at the sow that was about to give birth and was just handed to him by the villagers, he suddenly fell silent.
Is this going to make him a big pig farmer?
A minute later, Rong Ziyin found that the world around him had changed. No matter what it was, as long as it was related to agriculture and animal husbandry, the head of the creature was filled with bullet screens. At the same time, a system appeared in his mind.
System: Novice task, pay off the debt, two hundred thousand is just a snap of the fingers, the host, let's work hard together!
Rong Ziyin tasted the duck and felt that his mood was very subtle. However, he quickly came back to his senses from his surprise and carefully checked the various functions of the system.
The system is divided into two parts. One is redemption. Since there are not enough gold coins, it has not been opened yet.
The other part is the lottery, which is worth 1,000 gold coins each time. The things obtained from the lottery can be obtained in reality, from some magical skills to real gold and silver RMB. There is nothing that it cannot draw.
In the words of the system, if Rong Ziyin is lucky and draws a diamond antique or something, the 200,000 will probably be paid back in an instant. As for the things drawn in reality, there is no need to worry about being targeted. Because this is a reward given by the way of heaven, the way of heaven will automatically fill in the plot of Rong Ziyin getting things, and it must be seamless in the eyes of outsiders. It will not bring any trouble to Rong Ziyin.
The most amazing thing is that the gold coin value required by the system actually comes from the emotional fluctuations of all the creatures around Rong Ziyin towards him.
For example, the sow that he successfully rescued from dystocia that day, after waking up from a coma, the number [Gratitude Value +300] floated above her head, and its owner also floated [Gratitude Value +200]. And these five hundred, in the end, were converted into Rong Ziyin's system gold coin value at a one-to-one ratio.
Originally, Rong Ziyin thought that only positive emotions would provide gold coins, but now it seems that emotions such as embarrassment can also provide him with gold coins. Suddenly, I feel that this system has become more interesting.
The point is that Rong Ziyin finally saw a glimmer of hope that the future will become bright through this system.
As for the ducks in front of him, Rong Ziyin had an idea of what diseases they might have. However, to make an accurate judgment, some tests were needed.
So he asked the two aunts directly, "Both of your families have had ducks die in the past two days."
"How is that possible!" Rong Ziyin's words shocked the two of them, "Our ducks are just suffering from minor diseases, how could they die?"
For rural areas, the most feared thing about animal breeding is the emergence of diseases. Minor diseases are fine, but once it is a contagious disease, not only will your family not be able to escape the fate of being completely wiped out, but even the villagers will be isolated.
Those who rely on this to support their families would wish their families to be destroyed immediately, and they would also be blamed by the villagers, which is a fatal matter.
The two of them were originally blaming each other, but now they all united and attacked Rong Ziyin.
"You are a young man with no experience and no skills. What do you know? I have been raising ducks since my great-grandfather's generation. I know all the problems."
"You just brought a college student to the village to do gold plating. You are just cheating us! Bah!"
"Doctor Rong, look at this..." The village chief was also a little confused. He didn't know how to explain to Rong Ziyin.
Rong Ziyin was not in a hurry. He pointed at a group of ducks and said, "If they haven't died in the past two days, then kill one for testing."
After a pause, he added, "If you don't want to test it, you can just burn the two groups of ducks."
"..." Silence again.
Aunt 1, 2: Anger value +700
. It is obvious that she is going to confiscate his family and beat him up at any moment.
Rong Ziyin paused, and explained as gently as possible, "It's an infectious disease. There's nothing we can do."
"Bullshit!" The two aunties were furious. Not only them, but also the village chief and the surrounding villagers all changed their expressions.
Poultry breeding is different from other things. Infectious diseases are serious diseases. If one family has it, the whole village is in danger.
Although raising ducks is only a sideline in the village, it can supplement their livelihoods to some extent. If something really happens, the whole family will have a hard time this year.
Not to mention that there are not only ducks here, but also chickens! They are all poultry, although different species, but the diseases are similar.
The village chief tried to smooth things over. "Hey, Doctor Rong, you can't talk nonsense about infectious diseases."
Rong Ziyin pointed at the most depressed duck and said, "If you don't believe me, I can prove it on the spot."
Rong Ziyin was too determined, and the village chief didn't dare to gamble with the poultry of the whole village. He ignored the two aunts' objection and quickly ordered someone to kill the duck.
Rong Ziyin opened the medicine box he was carrying and took out a sharp scalpel from it.
"The liver is enlarged and has small nodules." Rong Ziyin found the liver of the duck neatly, took it out and showed it to the village chief, the two aunts and the surrounding villagers.
"Why did it grow like this?" The village chief frowned immediately.
He didn't quite understand what a nodule was, but he had been farming and taking care of livestock for most of his life, so he knew that a duck's liver couldn't have these small bumps the size of millet grains.
He couldn't help but step back in disgust.
Rong Ziyin had already taken out the dirty spleen of the duck, and it was no different from the dirty liver just now, also full of bumps.
But the most serious thing was that the epicardium of the dirty duck's heart had nodules the size of mung beans to soybeans, like dried cocoons.
"Are they infested with worms?"
"No. The initial diagnosis is duck tuberculosis. If you want a confirmed diagnosis, you need to submit a biopsy for testing. But judging by the symptoms of the two groups of ducks now, it doesn't make sense to send them for testing or not."
"They are listless, have retracted necks, weak legs, are unwilling to move or go into the water, have hunched backs, have decreased appetite, are emaciated, and have a decreased egg production rate. These symptoms, plus the autopsy results, are enough to prove that it is duck tuberculosis."
"Then how do we treat it now?" The village chief suddenly became anxious.
Tuberculosis is fatal for humans, not to mention ducks. It sounds serious.
The two aunts were extremely nervous.
Rong Ziyin sighed, "There is no other way, just burn it on the spot."
Two aunts: Grief Value 1000
Seeing that the two of them were about to faint, Rong Ziyin quickly added, "Duck tuberculosis can apply for subsidies. The money for duck seedlings can be paid."
The two aunts immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time provided Rong Ziyin with 400 comfort points each.
Now, Rong Ziyin, together with the previous accumulation, has a total of 10,000 gold coins, just enough for ten consecutive draws.
System: Come on, do it! The drop rate is doubled for the first consecutive draw, and the Dragon Slaying Sword will be given to all participants.
Regardless of the people around, the system took the opportunity to persuade Rong Ziyin. Rong Ziyin himself was also very curious about what would happen. Therefore, he let himself go for once and directly answered the system, "Draw!"
In the system, with Rong Ziyin's answer, the lottery wheel spun rapidly. A few seconds later, a row of items appeared in Rong Ziyin's system backpack.
Bluish-white leather, round and smooth. A row of ten items were neatly arranged in front of Rong Ziyin.
Rong Ziyin: ...Dragon Slaying Sword?
System: F*ck! This is even possible? Rong Ziyin, your biological father is an African chieftain!
