1040 第1040章 One Man Dog (2/2)

”Alright!” Hei Zi nodded his head excitedly. ”I'll listen to you and buy the Doberman!”

However, there was another difference between these puppies and the Doberman in Resident Evil. Their ears were still soft, not as handsome as those in games and movies that had their ears upright.

Their tails had been cut off from the second segment of the tailbone at birth, leaving only a short segment, but the layman could not see it, and Hei Zi was in need of a dog with a broken tail.

The owner of the young dogs had brought them here because she'd wanted to find the bald roving doctor to cut and tie its ears so that the ears would stand up handsomely. That way, it could sell for a good price. After all, everyone recognized a Doberman with cut ears.

”I want to check—how are you selling this Doberman?” Hei Zi walked over and asked the lady.

She looked at him, not really wanting to bother with him, and used a strong local accent to say, ”Sell! Of course I'm selling it! Dobermans are very expensive. Do you want to buy?”

Hei Zi nodded. ”I want to buy one.”

”Then you pick one yourself.” The woman made her way to the side to haggle with the bald roving doctor.

Hei Zi turned his head back and looked towards Zhang Zian with a gaze that was asking for help. He wanted Zhang Zian to choose one for him, but Zhang Zian shook his head slightly, saying, ”When choosing pets, you need to base it on your affinity. It's you who is buying a pet and not me, so it's better that you choose one yourself.”

”But...” Hei Zi was still a bit hesitant. He already knew that the dog market was very complicated, and although he did not lack money, he did not want to spend a lot of time and effort before he found that the dog he'd chosen was not suitable.

”Don't worry, I'll help you check it,” Zhang Zian said, encouraging him.

”Alright...”

Hei Zi walked up to the cage, and the few Dobermans were all staring at him.

How to choose?

He was also very troubled.

Then he touched his trouser pocket and remembered that there was a bag of beef jerky in there. Wildlife enthusiasts like him regularly carried chocolate bars or beef jerky with them for occasional use.

The pants he was wearing today had a bag of beef jerky, and he'd forgotten to take it out when he'd washed his clothes. He took it out to take a look. Because the container was very tightly sealed, there were no openings, so the beef jerky probably could still be eaten.

”Come. I'll let you eat beef jerky.”

He tore open the bag and stuffed the beef jerky into the cage to observe their reactions, wanting to choose the toughest one of the lot.

Hei Zi did not know, but behind him, when Zhang Zian saw his actions, he shook his head silently.
