Explained to Qian.
Then Zhou Qian and Zhou Qian carefully raised the plastic box, and the two left the artificial island.
quickly…
Veterinary clinic at the zoo.
"Number the fertilized eggs first, and I will take a few pictures."
Xiang Qian put the plastic box on the table, Zhou Qian nodded naturally:
"it is good."
Speaking of taking out a few marker pens, the two immediately started numbering.
ten minutes later.
Giant tortoise fertilized egg: XG1-242
All are numbered.
Click! ~
Xiang Qian took the picture with his mobile phone.
Zhou Qian put all the fertilized eggs in the incubator and said:
"At a temperature of 6°C, the fertilized egg will enter a dormant state so that it can be stored for a long time, while the incubation temperature is around 32.5°C."
"Save it first." Xiang Qian said helplessly.
Now that there is a shortage of manpower, it is not time to hatch the cubs.
Besides...
Zhou Qian is a veterinarian, not a childcare worker.
The work content is different.
Xiang Qian could understand, and then looked at the remaining 126 elephant turtle eggs and asked:
"How to deal with these?"
"Later, I will send it to the cafeteria."
Zhou Qian's answer made Xiang Qian's eyes bright.
Right!
After all, it is not a fertilized egg, and the remaining elephant tortoise eggs cannot hatch cubs. It is better to send them to the canteen to improve the food for the employees.
otherwise…
Is it left until it rots?
Actually.
On the Internet, ostrich eggs and peacock eggs (non-fertilized eggs) can also be purchased. As food materials, they are basically hanged on the farm.
And at the Beihai Zoo.
It is the rules left by the old principal, referred to as resource recycling.
Of course!
This kind of resource recovery is limited to non-fertilized eggs of poultry.
All animals that died naturally can never be sent to the canteen.
...
Before leaving the veterinary clinic.
Looking at Qian, he suddenly asked:
"Does the tortoise have genetic mutations? For example, the albino tortoise?"
"Yes, but no white varieties."
Zhou Qian nodded, and then said:
"The Galapagos tortoise, in addition to the common colors, has a one-thousandth chance of showing a yellow species, and one in 100,000 chances of a golden species."
Golden variety?
Xiang Qian was a little surprised, but there was a one in 100,000 chance of hearing it.
Ok…
He thinks too much!
...
After a while.
Xiang Qian hurried back to the office, took out the address book from the drawer, and immediately dialed the Yunnan Wildlife Park with a landline.
He must hurry up.
Otherwise, the two mutant peacock eggs will emerge once the baby bird breaks its shell.
No matter how much money toss.
I'm afraid it's not enough!
Toot...Toot...
Soon, the phone dialed to the front desk of the other party, and someone immediately asked:
"Hello, what can I do?"
"Hello! I am the director of Beihai Zoo. We have a batch of fertilized eggs of giant tortoises. I don't know if your garden..."
Explaining his intention to Qian, the front desk staff replied:
"I'll transfer you to Director Qiao of the breeding center. He is in charge of this aspect."
"Okay, thank you!" Xiang Qian smiled.
...
Breeding Center
Director Qiao has a headache recently.
Because a batch of peacock eggs is about to hatch, he has not found a way to deal with it.
To know.
The blue peacocks in their zoo lay more than two hundred fertilized eggs every year.
The issue is…
The number of peacocks in the park is already saturated!
Even a safari park.
It is impossible to add more than two hundred peacocks every year. Their zoo simply cannot afford this kind of increase in numbers.
and so…
Director Qiao had a headache for this, but at the same time he was very proud.
Look at the entire China.
Only Yunnan Wild Animal Park has the most peacocks!
Other people's families can only envy.
Envy is envy...
But there are too many peacocks, is it not an annoying thing?
"Hey, after the first batch of fertilized eggs hatch, they will be transferred to the farm."
Director Qiao rubbed the corners of his eyes.
Toot! ~
At this time, the landline on the desk rang.
"Hello, who?"
Director Qiao picked up the phone and introduced himself to Qian again:
"Is it Director Qiao? I'm the director of Beihai Zoo..."
quickly.
Upon learning of Xiangqian's intentions, Director Qiao frowned and said:
"Elephant eggs, this..."
Upon hearing this, Qian quickly added:
"It's the Galapagos tortoise!"
Galapagos tortoise?
Director Qiao came to be interested, and he had already heard of this kind of longevity star in the turtle world.
So he asked:
"How many fertilized eggs do you have?"
There really is a show!
Xiang Qian was a little excited, then smiled:
"There are probably more than a hundred, we add WeChat and send photos to you."
obviously.
He concealed half of the amount from Qian, and Director Qiao nodded:
"it is good…"
The two parties exchange contact information, and then add WeChat friends.
call out! ~
Seeing some photos, Director Qiao nodded in satisfaction, then smiled:
"Very well, we happen to have a batch of peacock eggs hatching here."
"Hahaha, I seem to be lucky."
Xiang Qian also smiled, in fact, through the Dreamland Little Theater, I already knew it.
At this moment, Director Qiao also asked:
"How do we change?"
"You said…"
Knowing that the other party was willing to change, turned to Qian in no rush.
Seeing this, Director Qiao immediately declared:
"It's impossible to change one. You should know that the mortality rate of the baby tortoise is too high, and the growth period..."
Galapagos Giant Tortoise
About half a century...
Will come of age!
Director Qiao understands naturally.
"I know."
Smiled to Qian and nodded, then proactively said:
"How about we trade one for five?"
Five for one...
Director Qiao was a little moved, but on the surface he shook his head and said:
"No, ten for one!"
Haha, my appetite is really big.
Although Xiang Qian wanted to agree, he knew this time.
Be sure to keep your breath.
"Brother Joe, you want too much!"
Showed embarrassment to Qian, then explained:
"In our zoo, we have to leave dozens of elephant tortoise eggs for breeding. It's impossible to replace all of them with peacock eggs."
"This... it's easy to discuss."
Director Qiao smiled.
It's nothing more than a stretch...
This is what Xiang Qian is best at, so after some bargaining.
ten minutes later.
The two parties finally decided that the exchange ratio was 8:1, and eight elephant turtle eggs were exchanged for one peacock egg.
On the surface.
Xiangqian seems to be losing money, even if the elephant tortoise has a high mortality rate.
In a captive breeding environment, at least 5% of cubs can be guaranteed to live to adulthood.
Of course!
That is fifty years later.
Perhaps I feel that the loss to money is not small.
Director Qiao actively and enthusiastically said:
"I'll fax you the exchange contract, along with the serial numbers of the first batch of peacock eggs. You can choose."
Waiting for this sentence...
"Trouble Director Joe!"
Smiled to Qian and hung up the phone.
After a while.
Zi Zi... Zi Zi...
The office fax machine rang.
In addition to the contract, there is also a number of the peacock's fertilized egg.
X23, X48
These two mutant peacock eggs appeared on it.
Haha!
Xiang Qian was so excited that he quickly checked the two numbers with a pen, and then randomly selected four female peacock eggs.
A total of six were selected.
Two males and four females...
After Xiang Qian signed and sealed the contract, he immediately sent back all the documents and serial numbers.
drop! ~
However, Xiangqian said using WeChat voice:
[Voice message: Director Qiao, the fax has been sent back. I checked the number and selected six peacock eggs, two males and four females. According to the contract ratio, I will prepare 48 elephant tortoise eggs. ]
drop! ~
Soon, Director Qiao sent a voice reply.
[Voice message: Haha! Happy cooperation! ~ The six peacock eggs you chose, if you are lucky, there may be albino young birds, or even... Suzaku species. ]
Albino baby bird?
Suzaku species?
Blew up to Qian's scalp, does this guy already know?
impossible!
Listening to the other party's tone, it is obviously a commercial blow.
In that case...
Coming and not going to be indecent.
The next second, he sent Qian a voice message again with a smile:
drop! ~
[Voice message: Where is this kind of luck? On the contrary, it was Director Qiao who obtained 48 elephant turtle eggs, it is very likely that there will be yellow varieties, or even...golden varieties. ]
Golden variety...
Director Qiao on WeChat was naturally very happy.
Actually.
His words are just what they said.
After all, mutant varieties...
How rare?
Even in their safari park, albino peacocks are rare.
Well, there are five.
As for the Suzaku species...
It only appeared once in the history of Yunnan Wildlife Park.
Still in the 1990s.
The appearance of the Suzaku breed caused a sensation on the TV station, and it was also reported on the news.
Via WeChat.
The two chatted a few words.
During this period, Xiang Qian learned that "Phoenix Species" was a wrong name.
Refer to ancient mythology books.
【Five Colors of Phoenix, Red Bird】
The blood-red mutant peacock egg is actually a Suzaku species.
In other words.
This transaction of turtle eggs for bird eggs should be called...
Xuanwu for Suzaku!
Giant tortoises are basalt, and mutant peacocks naturally don't need to say much.
Xuanwu...
Suzaku...
Qinglong...
White Tiger...
The ancient four great beasts suddenly thought of the big white snake that Xiang Qian would save tomorrow.
Is this...
Qinglong?
Going forward was excited, so I said that I will make a white tiger in the future.
Beihai Zoo.
It is completely possible to advertise the four great beasts, and it will be a blockbuster by then!
...
Closer to home
The contract was signed and the fertilized eggs to be exchanged were confirmed.
Next...
Naturally, follow the formal process.
Tomorrow, both parties will pack the fertilized eggs and go to the forestry station or the Garden Bureau for filing, and then bring the corresponding documents to the post office for transportation.
Expected within two days.
North Sea animals can receive peacock eggs.
Get it done!
Putting down the phone to Qian, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but smile.
Director Joe...
If you know that among the six peacock eggs, there are albino cubs and Suzaku species.
I don't know if he vomits blood?
Hahahaha! ~
Hematemesis is for sure.
...
[PS: Lao Sha snickered, Director Qiao vomited three liters of blood! ~ This is the most regrettable thing in this life. 】
