The little steel wool ball stood on the table, looking aggrieved.Its pupils became larger than before, occupying the golden irises, and it looked less cute, which could make people see that it was afraid and wronged.

Li Shiyou tried to stretch out his hand to rub it, and the little owl's expression changed instantly, and he looked at him in shock and disbelief. This is a common expression of the owl family, and they always have this expression when their eyes are open.

The hair of the small steel wool ball looks fried, but it feels good to the touch. Li Shiyou has never stroked an owl seriously. This time, he took advantage of the small steel wool ball without struggling and stroked it for a while.

Suddenly a dog barking sounded at Li Shiyou's feet. It was steamed buns, shrimp dumplings and flower rolls. They were squatting at Li Shiyou's feet, looking curiously at the small steel wool ball on the table.

The three puppies stood up one after another, lay down on the table, and looked at the little owl standing on the table with curious expressions.

Hanamaki even wanted to stretch out her claws to touch the small steel wool ball, and the little steel wool ball jumped back in fright.

At this time, the egg yolk also flew in from the outside, tilted its head, and stared at the little owl curiously, then jumped to the side of the little owl, pecked a few mouthfuls on its body with its beak, as if it didn't taste good, and chirped a few times and then flew away.

When the egg yolk flew away, it seemed to be calling at Hanamaki. Hanamaki turned to look at the little owl, and then looked outside the door. Unable to resist the temptation, she also ran out to play with egg yolk.

Baozi and Shrimp Dumpling continued to stare at the little owl, with round eyes looking at each other. Both sides are cute, and the little steel ball is even cuter.

Li Shiyou tried to reach out, took the little owl, and put it on Baozi's head. Baozi gave this little owl to the owl couple at the beginning, maybe Baozi would like it.

The little owl placed on Baozi's head didn't move much, but Li Shiyou could clearly see that it had two small horns on its head, which were ear feathers that hadn't grown up yet. Generally, the behavior of owls should be because of fear Or get angry.But it was still standing on Baozi's head, motionless. I don't know if it was too scared to move or it didn't want to move.

Baozi seemed unaccustomed to having a bird standing on his head, so he shook his head left and right, but he couldn't shake off the little owl standing on his head.

At this time, there was a "cuckoo" cry outside, which was made by the owl couple, as if they were calling the little steel ball to go home.

The moment he heard the cry, the horns on the head of the small steel wool drooped, and the head became round again. Li Shiyou also heard a small sound, similar to "meow", which seemed to be coming from the small steel wool of.

The owl couple connected the small steel wool ball to the tree and let it stand on the branch by itself. Li Shiyou saw that the small steel wool ball stood on the branch very steadily and walked back and forth, and even climbed the tree to stand on a higher branch. with.

Li Shiyou took a video of the little owl climbing a tree and sent it to the doctor, and consulted the doctor very seriously, whether the owl really can make the sound of "meow, meow".

The doctor quickly replied that ordinary owls will make this kind of sound, which is the sound they make when they are very happy or comfortable.

The little owl responded in this way after the long-eared owl couple uttered their calls, which shows that it regards the long-eared owl couple as its own parents, so it will give this response.From this, it can be speculated that the pair of owls also regarded the small short-eared owl as their own children.

The doctor was quite happy, and told Li Shiyou a lot about owls, and let Li Shiyou know how lucky this little long-eared owl in his family is, to meet a couple who are willing to raise it.

Li Shiyou felt that the little long-eared owl might be the luckiest thing. The owl's parents might have bad eyesight, so they could raise the little owl as their own cub.But the little long-eared owl is different. It met a dog. Mantou was not only willing to take it with him, but also learned to catch mice for it. To take care of the little owl, Mantou really put in a lot of effort.

Not only is she diligent in taking care of her cubs, but she is also diligent in her work. The more Li Shiyou thinks about it, the more she feels that steamed buns are amazing, and she treats them like pancakes, with the same amount of rice and the same amount of snacks. There are two cucumbers after meals every day. Give it to my brother.

When cucumbers could be picked on a large scale, the road in the village was finally repaired. Because this area was contracted by Li Shiyou, it was currently his private territory, so after asking the villagers, Li Shiyou installed a gate at the entrance of the tunnel. Vehicles need the consent of the villagers to enter.

In this way, the village is still very safe, and the pigs, sheep and chickens he raises can continue to be released.

After the road was repaired, everyone in the village was very happy. Li Shiyou drove them around the nearby villages to see their children or relatives.

A few children wanted to take their parents to live with them, but they didn't want to. They were used to it in the village and they didn't want to move.

But now the roads in the village are also convenient, and the children can go home more often to see them.

The children who originally thought that their parents lived in the mountains must be very miserable. When they sent their parents away, they brought them a lot of food and things. When they were about to pay, they were shown by their parents. It is parents who give them money.

People in the village help Li Shiyou with daily work and earn a lot of money. They spend less, and everyone saves a sum of money. If they can't spend it all by themselves, they give it to their children.

A few people, when sending their parents away, even asked Li Shiyou for their contact information, saying that they could go to work for Li Shiyou in the future, and they could just go home and see their parents.

Li Shiyou welcomes people who are willing to come and work. He not only added these people's WeChat accounts, but also created a group with people from Sanshan Village.

After seeing relatives and children, the villagers planned to thank Li Shiyou.The way they thanked was very old-fashioned, and they wanted to invite Li Shiyou to dinner.

Li Shiyou was invited by several people at the same time, and he had to eat for a few days every day, so he simply decided that the whole village should eat together.

Recently, cucumbers and other vegetables in the fields can be picked, and there are more vegetables that can be eaten. We have a banquet to celebrate the opening of the road in the village.

In addition to the villagers, there are seven or eight short-term workers who help, and three long-term workers, a total of more than 20 people.Li Shiyou only provided one sheep, and the rest were taken by other people in the village. Almost every family brought out a chicken, as well as various vegetables and eggs. The four chefs said that there were too many dishes. , can't finish it.

While the villagers were busy, Li Shiyou went to the field to see the watermelons he had planted, because he did not disclose the news of planting watermelons, and some people who did not go to the fields often did not know that he had planted watermelons, and Ye Hong did not know.

At this time, the watermelon was not yet ripe. Li Shiyou found a large watermelon that weighed seven or eight catties. After touching it for a long time, he couldn't be sure if it was ripe. He saw that the watermelon was quite big, so he thought it must be ripe, so he picked it off and took it home.

As a result, after opening, the watermelon was only faintly pink and not ripe at all.

When Second Chef Bai saw the watermelon, he came over to cut a small piece and tasted it, and said that it tasted good, just right for cooking.So Li Shiyou ate a dark dish, mutton and watermelon.

There is also half of the watermelon, which was taken by Second Chef Bai to pickle pickles, and it will be eaten in a few days.

After dinner in the afternoon, everyone was given a bowl of soup, which was milky white and steaming, with chopped green onion sprinkled on top, and nothing in it, just a bowl of soup.

Li Shiyou tasted it, and the different layers and textures, as well as the delicious and sweet feeling, burst on the tip of his tongue. Li Shiyou can say without exaggeration that this is the best soup he has ever tasted.

But the chefs are very mysterious, no matter how much he asks, he is unwilling to tell what kind of soup it is.Even if they didn't say anything, Li Shiyou knew that the soup must be stewed with meat, probably made of chicken, sheep, and fish.

After drinking the soup, there are a few cold dishes, braised mutton head meat, shredded chicken in cold salad, patted cucumber, garlic eggplant, and many hot dishes, such as braised rooster, stewed lamb with tomatoes, stir-fried chicken offal, mutton vermicelli pot, lamb roast watermelon……

Although the combination of mutton and watermelon looks strange, it tastes delicious. The immature watermelon is slightly sour and crispy, with a slight sweetness, which just neutralizes the greasy taste of mutton. Li Shiyou did not dislike it at first He looked like he ate several pieces of watermelon.

After the dinner, everyone helped Li Shiyou clean up the mess before they left slowly. Everyone walked at a slow pace. There was nothing they could do, their stomachs were too full.

Li Shiyou spread out on the recliner to digest, and suddenly heard Chef Cao's voice from the kitchen: "Who stole my mutton."

After a while of quarreling, Chef Cao came to look for Li Shiyou and asked him if he had seen the mutton in the kitchen. It was a piece of mutton that he had left on purpose.

Li Shiyou knew where this piece of mutton went. When everyone was busy cleaning up the yard just now, Li Shiyou happened to see the trace of a bird flying over the tree in the yard. Later, he noticed that the bird had caught a large piece of mutton in its paws.

Chef Cao looked in the direction Li Shiyou pointed. The little long-eared owl was holding a piece of meat firmly in its claws. It was standing on the tree with its eyes closed, and the little short-eared owl was next to it, trying to steal the meat. eat lamb.

Chef Cao was about to cry, but he stayed here after arguing with his seniors for a long time. He wanted to try a new dish, but it was stolen.

If the thief is someone else, he can still beat him up, but the thief is still a second-class protected animal, and he can't even touch it. It's depressing to think about it.

Chef Cao sat beside Li Shiyou, sighing.Li Shiyou didn't usually kill sheep many times, and it was rare for him to kill a sheep once. As a result, his meat was gone. Chef Cao was really sad.

Hearing his long and short sighs, Li Shiyou felt that he was about to suffer from indigestion, so he took the initiative to comfort him: "It is impossible to kill the sheep. They are growing meat recently, otherwise I will catch some loaches for you."

Chef Cao almost didn't think about it, and nodded immediately.

Li Shiyou asked the system to catch loach and eat loach for dinner.

The system murmured to catch the loach, which is not easy to catch, but recently there are mature crops in the field, and it has been experienced every day, so it is more obedient.

Li Shiyou continued to spread out on the chair. Although it was very hot in summer, the wind was strong, and it wouldn't be too hot in the shade.

Within a few minutes, Li Shiyou saw a shadow across the sky, and the little long-eared owl flew down from the tree, and put the meat in its claws into the small basket where the steamed buns were placed in the nest.

Hanamaki noticed the movement on the side of the steamed bun for the first time, and immediately got up and ran to the steamed bun nest, trying to steal some meat, but the meat was not eaten, and the owl pecked her nose. Hanamaki howled and ran to Li Shiyou, giving Li Shiyou looked at its nose.

The small long-eared owl can prey on its own, and its attack power is naturally very strong. Li Shiyou carefully touched Hanamaki's nose, one side seemed to be swollen, and touched the pecked nose of Hanamaki. , its nose must be hurting.

But the unscrupulous owner Li Shiyou couldn't help laughing out loud, and even took a video and sent it to Moments and Weibo.

Ye Hong managed Hanamaki's Weibo quite well, and Li Shiyou's Weibo was commented on by many fans just after it was posted.As loyal netizens of Hanamaki, these fans are already very shrewd to know that there are two managers of Hanamaki, and one of them will always make funny videos of Hanamaki, but he will also show some sympathy.

The other agent is very unscrupulous, and every time he posts a video, he gloats about others' misfortune.But Hanamaki is obviously closer to the unscrupulous manager, and the fans tacitly agree that this unscrupulous manager is the real owner.

Li Shiyou saw the unscrupulous agent mentioned in the comments, and then read the summary posts posted by fans. He couldn't help admiring the analysis ability of netizens, who could analyze the situation of his family from so many details.

The flower roll was pecked, and the owner not only did not comfort it, but also laughed at it.

Dogs also have pride, and Hanamaki is very angry. It decides not to eat dinner unless it is given an extra piece of meat for dinner.

Fortunately, the chefs still like the pup at home very much. After Hanamaki showed each chef its pecked and swollen nose, all four chefs added a piece of meat to its rice bowl. The other puppies had four extra pieces of meat. Even with the filter (I always have less food than other puppies), Hanamaki can see this time that I have more food than other puppies.

After happily eating dinner, Hanamaki's nose seemed to be relieved, and she happily went out to play.

Watching off all the pups who went out to play, Li Shiyou sighed, and squatted in the living room to start his difficult straw weaving practice.

There is not much work in the field now, he is going to start straw weaving.Dogs can still rest, but people can only work seamlessly.

After Li Shiyou handed over the No. 20 unqualified hats, the most patient uncle in the village sighed and gently advised him: "Do you still want to learn grapefruit, or you can try other things."

Li Shiyou refused: "No, I must learn to weave straw and use up the wheat straw at home."

At this moment Fang Dashun interrupted suddenly: "If you want to use up the wheat straw, you don't have to weave things, you can also weave it into cushions."

Fang Dashun is the person with the worst straw weaving skills in the village, but he can also weave cushions.Wheat stalks are braided into thick straw ropes, and then a mat is wound out of the straw rope. The height and size of the mat can be adjusted at will, and a layer of rags is put on the outside to complete it.

This kind of cushion cannot be exposed to the rain, but it is very useful, durable and not deformed. Many people in the village have this kind of cushion in their homes, and Fang Dashun has the most because he only knows how to weave it.

In Li Shiyou's opinion, this kind of mat is not very good-looking, and there are many restrictions on its use, but it is currently the best choice for consuming straw.

This kind of cushion consumes a lot of materials. To make a [-]cm high cushion, the material consumption is ten times that of making a hat, and the process is not complicated. As long as you have hands, you can make it. He plans to make this cushion.

For other straw weaving, please ask the villagers to help.

Li Shiyou made a few particularly ugly cushions, and other villagers also made hats, small baskets, small baskets, puppies, and calf straw weaves. The contrast is particularly obvious when put together.

Li Shiyou was not afraid of embarrassment, so he put them together and asked Ye Hong to help take pictures and put them on the Taobao store.

Straw hats and baskets woven by other villagers are priced according to the working hours. The highest price is 35 yuan. The cushions woven by Li Shiyou are priced according to the size. The highest price is [-] yuan. The price is the same.

Li Shiyou pulled out the flower rolls to advertise. In addition to normal-sized daily necessities, the villagers also specially made small hats, small baskets, and straw balls for the puppies. These are similar to pet decorations and use less materials. But it is time-consuming and expensive, but the Hanamaki works well and looks good, and fans are clamoring to buy them.

But when it came to the cushion, I only got a lot of complaints. Even if Li Shiyou replaced the outer cloth cover with a detachable one, and changed the design and color to something more in line with modern aesthetics, people still got complaints. Who would buy this thing these days.

Hanamaki is still a competent advertising dog, and has driven a lot of sales of various straw weaves in Taobao stores, but the mats cannot be sold, and almost no one buys them.

Even if a hundred other small things were sold, they would not use much material. Li Shiyou was a little anxious, so he urgently called Ye Hong and Xu Dong together for a meeting, and asked them how they could sell more cushions.

Ye Hong was a little puzzled: "Boss, our other products are more expensive and use less materials, especially the small panniers of the same style as Hanamaki, which are the best sellers and have good reviews from fans. Can you push the small panniers?" ?”

Li Shiyou: "The straw takes up too much space. I want to free up that space and plant a batch of sesame seeds."

Straw covers an area of ​​more than an acre. Ye Hong always wanted Li Shiyou to plant sesame seeds. After hearing Li Shiyou's words, Ye Hong immediately thought of a way: "Recently, live broadcasts are very popular. Let Huajuan start a live broadcast."

Xu Dong has no better way, and his major does not involve how to sell straw cushions.

Li Shiyou studied the process of the live broadcast, and felt that this could be possible.

So the next day, Li Shiyou put a cushion under the cherry tree outside the door, let Hanamaki sit on the cushion, and sold the cushion live.

But Li Shiyou was obviously not prepared enough. After introducing the function of the cushion at the beginning, he ran out of words. He looked at Hanamaki, and Hanamaki looked at the camera innocently, not knowing what he should do.

At this time, a bullet screen flashed: "Boss, do you want to buy a mat and get a flower roll?"

Li Shiyou seemed to have thought of something, and immediately ran back to the kitchen, took a tomato and a cucumber, put them in front of the Hanamaki, and then told the fans that if you buy a mat, you will get the same tomato and cucumber as the Hanamaki.

Hanamaki doesn't know why the owner suddenly feeds it food, but there is food in front of it, and Hanamaki eats it first.

So fans saw that the live broadcast changed from selling goods to eating and broadcasting. Watching Hanamaki gnawing cucumbers and tomatoes, they suddenly felt that the snacks in their hands were not delicious.

A few curious fans went to Li Shiyou's store to search for cushions, and found that cushions were the cheapest. Although they thought the cushions were useless, they also ordered a cushion when they were shopping for other things.

After the one-hour live broadcast, Hanamaki gnawed off two large cucumbers and ate one and a half tomatoes. Only a dozen of mats were sold, but a lot of pet accessories such as small baskets were sold, which made Li Shiyou very depressed. no.

He specially went to the field to choose big and good tomatoes for the little partner who bought the mats, wrapped them up and put them in the courier.

The tomatoes he picked were not yet ripe, and after two or three days on the courier road, they were just ready to eat in the hands of buyers.

Fans who ate the tomatoes left messages in the Taobao store, wanting Li Shiyou to put the tomatoes on the shelves, and they were willing to pay more expensive prices for the tomatoes.

Some fans even left messages on Weibo, wanting Li Shiyou to put tomatoes on the shelves.

Since there were only a few comments, and the expressions were too exaggerated, fans who saw the comments and comments felt that Li Shiyou was promoting his cushions, and most of them didn't care.

But Li Shiyou's cushion eventually became a bestseller, but not as a cushion.

The journey of this cushion to popularity was a bit bumpy. A fan saw the live broadcast of Hanamaki and was ready to support Hanamaki. Originally, he only planned to buy a straw ball for the cats at home to play with. Later, after watching Hanamaki’s hard work in advertising, he bought it by the way. Ten yuan bought a small cushion, and she didn't know what use it was for.

So after taking out the ball and throwing it to the cat, the fan forgot about the existence of the cushion and left it in the corner.

After a few days, she felt that something was wrong with the cat at home. The scratching post was not scratching anymore, and there were no traces on the sofa at home. This was not his cat's style. She was a little worried that her cat was sick.

After observation, she found the cushion that was hidden by the cat. The outer cloth cover was scratched to pieces, but the straw rope inside could be clearly seen. There were traces of being scratched by the cat on the grass rope, but the grass rope turned out to be It's not loose at all, still very strong, and the smell of this cushion is surprisingly good, with a sunny wheat aroma.

She took out the cushion and put it next to the cat climbing frame. She saw the cat grinding its claws on it every day, and jumped to sleep on the cushion when it got tired. She obviously liked this cushion, and never scratched the sofa again.

Fans who can finally change sofas, happily went to Hanamaki Chaohua and shared the correct use of cushions with the fan group. They also included videos and pictures, and shared the price at the same time. Even if the shipping fee is added, it is still cheaper than the cheapest cat scratcher , but also a few dollars cheaper.

This wave of Amway is much more useful than Li Shiyou's own advertisement. After seeing it, many people went to the store to place orders, specially buying cushions for ten yuan each, to see if the little masters at home would like it.

Almost every cushion bought home has become a cat's favorite scratching post.

Some people who have dogs at home also tried to buy a few big straw mats and cushions, and tried to put them in the kennel when they went home. In the nest, they gnaw and play or sharpen their claws every day.

Durable and cheap cushions quickly became popular as cat scratching posts and dog toys. Li Shiyou couldn't keep up, so he hired a few short-time workers to help him make handmade cushions.

While weaving the cushions, Li Shiyou didn't forget to show off to the system that the cushions he made were good, otherwise they wouldn't be so popular.

It’s just that Li Shiyou doesn’t quite understand why the photos in the Taobao store have to bring cats and dogs. Many photos are of cats sitting on the mat, and they also add comments. The cat at home likes it very much. The ones he sells are obviously for human use. cushion.

At this time, another thing happened that Li Shiyou didn't expect. A man bought a cushion, and after tasting his tomatoes, he wrote a program and sent a private message to Li Shiyou within 1 minute, asking Li Shiyou to put tomatoes on the shelves. .

Since the supply of cushions has been in short supply, Hanamaki’s identity as an advertising dog has lost its value in Li Shiyou’s eyes, because it is not easy to use for advertising, so Li Shiyou almost gave up Hanamaki’s Weibo. Read the private message.He weaves these straw mats every day, and there is not enough time.

Can't rely on face to eat, Hanajuan has to go to work again, and is driven by Li Shiyou to herd sheep every day.

Hanamaki, who is lazy all the time, has once again stimulated her potential. She is a dog and can herd pigs.

Unlike herding sheep, pigs don’t need to be kept for too long. The pigs are driven out of the pigsty at [-] o’clock every morning, and they have to go back after [-] o’clock. The working hours are relatively short.

So Hanamaki, who started to work, immediately fell in love with the job of herding pigs. After learning from shrimp dumplings and steamed buns for a few days, Hanamaki developed a set of pig herding skills by herself, and a dog can smoothly herd pigs and collect pigs.

After Huajuan took Li Shiyou to see its skills, Li Shiyou also admired it, and knew how to choose short-term jobs.

But Hanamaki is also really good. In the past, pancakes and steamed buns had been practiced for a long time before pigs could be released. As a result, Hanamaki learned it in three days and made pigs more obedient.

Hanamaki and pancakes are not the same as the way they put pigs, it is a lure type of pigs.

If a pig ran out of the herd, Hanamaki would find a wild fruit, or catch a cricket or something like that to feed the pig, and use bribes to make the pig obedient.

And every morning, it will send some food to the leading pig, some are wild fruits he found from the roadside, some are small cucumbers picked secretly from the field, or green vegetables cheated from the villagers, Feed the pig so obediently, every day when the time comes, as long as it barks, the first pig will hum and command the other pigs to return to their nests, which is better than cow barking.

Relying on her ingenuity, Hanamaki successfully got the job of herding pigs from her master. She only works for two hours a day and does not waste her playing time at all.
