Little White left the pet shop so easily, leaving Zhang Zian and Vladimir with an indescribable feeling in their hearts, especially the latter. He felt like he had made a wedding dress for someone else.
"What the f * ck! What the f * ck! "Vladimir said bitterly." If you have the ability, then make a hole and get out! "
Little White did not fall for it. It did not do this kind of fight, because even if it also made a hole in the air wall, Vladimir might find fault with it and say that the air wall itself was broken, so it was not as strong as before.
It identified the direction and followed the wall to the north. Although it did not know the specific location of the waste purchase station, the closer it was to it, the more concentrated the smell of the garbage would be. It would eventually be able to find it.
Zhang Zian stopped it. "Why don't I drive you there? I have nothing to do anyway. It's too early to go to bed now. My nightlife should be more colorful."
Little White hesitated and shook its head. "No need. I'm already very grateful that you can take me to the city and save me half the distance."
"It's okay. In fact, what you said before was right. Those empty bottles and cans were picked up by the stray dogs one by one in the scorching heat. I shouldn't have been generous to others and done them a favor." Zhang Zian apologized.
During the day, the staff at the waste purchase station had deliberately missed the number of empty bottles to take advantage of them. At that time, he thought that in order to be able to cooperate with them for a long time, he would suffer a little loss. But later, Little White was angry. He also reflected on it and felt that the main reason he thought so was because he did not equate the labor of the stray dogs with that of humans.
It was the same bottle picking up. If the bottle was picked up by an old man who was scavenging, if someone deliberately embezzled, others would be filled with righteous indignation. They would feel that the old man's life was not easy, so how could they plunder the feathers of others? However, if the bottle was picked up by a stray dog, others would feel that it was nothing more than a dog. Anyway, the dog ran fast and had great strength. It was not a big deal to pick it up a few more times.
In fact, the bottles were picked up by hand. Whether it was a human or a dog, didn't they all put in the same amount of hard work? You may not respect dogs, but you should respect labor.
On the other hand, although there is no professional discrimination, the people who work in the recycling station may not have good conduct. He looked at the unbearable heat and the dirty work, so he turned a blind eye to them. However, they may not appreciate it and may not know how to be grateful. It is more likely that they will treat him as a steamed bun. In the future, they may increase the number of steamed buns.
Therefore, even if it was just to make up for it, he planned to bring Little White along. It would be best if he could negotiate with them — he could forget about it this time, but he could not deduct the quantity next time.
If the negotiations were fruitless … then they could only play it by ear.
He told Little White his idea, and Little White nodded in agreement.
He went back to the shop and told the other elfins that if he came back late, they should sleep first. He went out and pulled down the shutter door. He let Little White sit in the Wuling Hong Guang MPV and drove to the northern suburbs.
Since Vladimir wasn't with them this time, Xiao Bai didn't have to suffer the embarrassment of being in the same car as her sworn enemy.
After nightfall, the temperature dropped a lot. With the windows open, the night wind blew into the car. It was very pleasant.
There were fewer cars at night, and the Wuling Hong Guang MPV kept its speed very fast. Soon, it passed through the city and entered the northern suburbs.
There were few people in the suburbs at night. The distance between the street lamps was large, and the brightness was a little weak. The space between the two street lamps was quite dark.
Zhang Zian slowed down the car. In places like this, he couldn't drive fast, because he didn't know if someone would suddenly cross the road.
Suddenly, a yellow shadow passed in front of the car. Maybe it was because the speed was too fast, or maybe it was because the headlights of the Wuling Hong Guang MPV were too bad, but Zhang Zian couldn't see what it was. He could only subconsciously slam on the brakes. The tires violently rubbed against the ground, and the Wuling Hong Guang MPV screamed and stopped, almost hitting the thing.
Little White was caught off guard. Because it wasn't wearing a seat belt — after all, seat belts weren't designed for dogs — it rolled out of the car seat awkwardly during the braking process. It was stuck awkwardly between the seat and the glove box.
Zhang Zian was shocked and broke into a cold sweat, for fear of hitting someone. After a while, he recovered from the shock and reached out to grab Little White's leg and pulled it out of the gap.
"Thank you," Little White said awkwardly.
"What was that?" Zhang Zian pretended not to see its embarrassment and looked to the left. The thing had disappeared into the darkness, and he only knew that it was some kind of animal.
With the car window open, Little White took a few deep sniffs and said, "It's a dog. It seems to be a stray dog, or maybe a free-range dog in the countryside."
Although the dog had run away, the sour smell from its body still lingered in the air. It was a smell that would only appear when it was often in contact with rotten vegetables and leaves in the garbage dump. The clean and decent dogs in the pet shop never had such a smell.
In the suburbs and villages, it was very common to keep dogs to guard the house, and they were often medium to large dogs with extremely complex bloodlines. In other words, they were mixed dogs that even Zhang Zian couldn't recognize. They were usually tied in the yard, and there were also free-range puppies or stray dogs. The Binhai City Dog Keeping Regulations were for the urban area. It didn't apply here, and no one checked here.
"It was too dangerous. I almost hit it." Zhang Zian wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Fortunately, he slowed down in advance and only stepped on the brakes, not the steering wheel. Otherwise, there was a possibility that the car would roll over at high speed to avoid pedestrians or animals.
On the highway, there were often stray cats, stray dogs, and other animals that were killed and crushed while crossing the road. Traffic accidents caused by them crossing the road were not uncommon.
Little White pondered and said, "I've been ignoring it before. There are also stray dogs in the north, so the east and west …"
"There are no stray dogs in the east, unless it's fur seals," Zhang Zian corrected.
Little White said, "… Well, I'm only familiar with a small piece of terrain in the southeast of Binhai City."
Before, just feeding the hundreds of stray dogs in the landfill was enough to give Little White a headache. Every day, he was thinking about the problem of finding clean food and had no time to care about other things. Now that the food problem was temporarily solved, and there was still energy left, its mind became active.
If he could find a way to integrate the stray dogs in the north, west, and south, he would be able to better compete with the stray cats.
Zhang Zian calmed down and looked at the navigation map. He found that the waste purchase station was not far away, and it seemed to be in the direction that the stray dog had just run to. It took a shortcut, and he could only continue along the road.
