Jin Er tried his best to shift the blame. He emphasized that it wasn't that he didn't train the dog well, but that the dog was too good-for-nothing. In short, men were afraid of choosing the wrong dog, and women were afraid of marrying the wrong man. Anyway, good-for-nothing couldn't speak, so it had to take the blame.
Snowy also said a few good words for him, because she had indeed witnessed the process of him training the dog several times. She didn't know whether he was good or not, but he really did try his best.
Blackie reluctantly accepted his explanation, but he still took it to heart and said, "Jin Er, for the sake of this girl speaking up for you, I will remember today's account, and I will settle it with you later."
Jin Er coughed a few times and said humbly, "This … in your circle of friends, you also have to say a few good words for me …"
Blackie stared at him, "So that you can deceive more people?"
"That's not what I mean … It's just that I also want to save face …" Jin Er found all kinds of reasons, hoping that Blackie wouldn't expose him in his circle of friends.
"Let's put this aside for now. What about me? Did I come all the way here for nothing? "Blackie slammed his palm on the hood, giving Good-for-Nothing a fright.
Blackie was even more disappointed when he saw Good-for-nothing was even afraid of this sound.
"No, no, do you know why I let Snowy stay? It's to help you, so you have to understand my painstaking efforts … "Jin Er said, pointing to Snowy.
Snowy was even more curious when she heard him talking about her. What could she do to help?
Blackie also looked at Snowy suspiciously, thinking that this little girl was so delicate. Was she an expert in training dogs? Or, her family lived in this luxurious villa area. Could it be that her father owned a pet farm, so she knew pets very well?
Jin Er said, "Let's not talk in riddles. You see, this child is so confused … Blackie, tell Snowy why you came here, and she will understand."
"Okay …" Blackie reluctantly lit a cigarette and took a deep puff.
Blackie was indeed Jin Er's college classmate.
Similar to Jin Er, after Blackie left school and entered society, he also had a smooth career in the business world, without any major setbacks.
Blackie didn't have much ambition, but he had a unique understanding and pursuit of life. After he entered middle age, he disregarded the opposition of everyone around him and resolutely sold the company he had founded, obtaining complete wealth and freedom, as well as the freedom of life. He faded out of the business world and no longer had any contact with his former business partners. He only kept in touch with a few old friends, and Jin Er was one of them.
After achieving his financial freedom, he did not buy a yacht or a sports car like the other tycoons. Instead, he began to exercise, systematically learning diving, rock climbing, drifting, and other extreme sports skills. It took him a year or two to master these skills. Then, he began another action that left others dumbfounded — solo wilderness survival.
Blackie said that he was not trying to put on a show by surviving alone in the wilderness, nor was he trying to seek death. He was not doing it because he had nothing better to do than what others said. Instead, he wanted to experience life by himself in the vast world. He wanted to stimulate all of his potential while fighting against nature, and he wanted to experience life.
Very few people understood him, because most people could not achieve his level of wealth and freedom. They were still working hard to make a living.
Some people had also achieved wealth and freedom, but they wanted to earn more money. They wanted to make sure that they and their children did not have to worry about food and clothing. They also wanted to make sure that their grandchildren did not have to worry about food and clothing. These people could not understand him.
He was too lazy to explain. People who walked different paths could not make plans together.
Jin Er was his friend, his old classmate, and one of the few people who could understand him.
Although Jin Er did not completely give up on the company he founded, he was usually a hands-off boss and did not ask about the daily operations of the company.
Just as Blackie said, he was not looking for death by surviving alone in the wilderness. Every time he went to the wilderness, he would carefully plan his route and estimate the dangers and difficulties he might encounter. Then, he would inform his old friends of the route and time. If he did not return as planned, he would ask his friends to call the police.
In addition, he was also very cautious when choosing the location. He followed the order of easy to difficult, learning from the experience of his predecessors, and not taking risks blindly.
Generally speaking, he went into the wilderness on foot. He would choose to drive in some areas that were too vast and desolate. But the basic principle remained the same. He had to be alone.
As the difficulty increased, he found that he was facing a greater and greater challenge of survival. In the wilderness, anything could happen. He could encounter wild beasts, bandits, and other unexpected dangers.
He wanted to experience life and not look for death. On the contrary, he cherished his life. In order to improve his safety, he had to face two difficult choices. He could either give up his principle of being alone and find a companion, or he could stop at the current difficulty and not challenge the more dangerous wilderness.
He was not willing to accept either of the two choices.
Just as he was in a dilemma, a senior in the field of wilderness survival gave him an idea. Why not bring a dog?
These words woke him up from his daydream, and he was suddenly enlightened.
That's right!
Bringing a dog could not only relieve the loneliness of the journey, but it also did not violate the principle of being alone.
More importantly, in the wilderness, a dog could play a very important role. It could smell the scent of wild animals and strangers in advance. It could help him fight with wild animals or gangsters. It could even save his life in the event of an earthquake, a mudslide, or a landslide, and he would never have to worry about the dog betraying his master.
In a sense, a dog was the best companion for a solo wilderness survivor. It could play a complementary role, and it was even safer than bringing an extra person. Going into the wilderness with a person he was not familiar with was in itself a big risk. As the saying goes, you may know a person's face, but not their heart.
But the question was, what kind of dog was suitable?
The senior who gave him the suggestion could not answer this question, and could only suggest that he ask someone who knew.
Hei Zi remembered that there was a dumbass with the surname Jin who was always showing off his dog in his circle of friends. He bragged about how he trained the dog, and how he trained the dog so well that it did not dare to go west. If you asked it to chase ducks, it would not chase chickens.
So, he drove thousands of miles to Binhai City. One reason was to visit an old friend that he had not seen for a long time, and the other was to ask his old friend for advice on what kind of dog he should choose.
However …
He stared at the good-for-nothing dog that had just been beaten and was winking at Snowball to provoke him. He could only sigh deeply. If he brought this dog into the wilderness, his friends would probably have to collect his and the dog's corpses.
