Chapter 56: Rescue and Treatment

  "Big Uncle!" He Dong had just walked into Big Uncle's courtyard when he saw Big Uncle Meng Ziqiang standing beside the sheep pen, his face full of worry.

  "Ah! Dongdong is here, come quickly to help my uncle take a look, what's wrong with these sheep?" As soon as Meng Ziqiang saw He Dong, he was like grasping at a lifeline and didn't say anything else, pulling He Dong straight to the sheep pen.

  Meng Ziqiang raised more than 200 black goats, which can bring him a profit of around 600,000 to 800,000 yuan per year. This amount may not be considered significant by some wealthy people, but in this small mountain village, it is absolutely a considerable income.

  "It seems to be a case of sheep nasal myiasis." There were over a dozen sheep in the pen that were noticeably weaker than the others, and they would occasionally sneeze and shake their heads, appearing particularly restless. He Dong also noticed that these sheep had swollen eyes, with tears streaming down, and he immediately suspected something was wrong.

  "Dong Dong, are you okay?" As soon as he saw He Dong, his mouth opened and the symptoms were spoken out. Meng Ziqiang's face suddenly showed a surprised smile.

  "Uncle, this illness is not difficult to cure! But I'm surprised, isn't this a common disease? Don't you have a veterinarian in your village? He should be able to treat it!" He Dong asked doubtfully.

  "Alas, never mind. The old veterinarian in our village passed away last month." Meng Ziqiang shook his head regretfully, with a hint of sadness still on his face.

  "Oh, I see. Eldest uncle, this sheep nose fly disease can be effectively treated with injections of ivermectin and iodine phenol. Luckily, I brought some with me, so I'll go ahead and give them the shots." He Dong looked at Meng Ziqiang's somewhat haggard expression and didn't say anything more, directly taking action.

  The several months of experience in the pet hospital made He Dong's work absolutely effortless, and it only took him a little over an hour to earn sixteen summoning points, which was equivalent to his weekly "income" in the past. This couldn't help but make He Dong secretly pleased with himself.

  "Is... is that all?" Meng Ziqiang asked anxiously as soon as He Dong finished.

  "Ah! After a few more days of injections, I'll be fine!" He Dong nodded and said.

  "Great, great! Dongdong has really grown up and his skills have improved a lot!" Meng Ziqiang patted He Dong's shoulder and praised.

  "Qiang Ge, I heard that your nephew came to treat the illness of the sheep in your family?" Just then, a person suddenly walked in from outside.

  "Second Uncle!" Almost everyone in Qing Shan Village was related to each other, so after seeing the visitor, He Dong immediately addressed him according to local custom.

  "Dongdong is getting more and more handsome! Is this your girlfriend? She's really beautiful! By the way, Qiang Ge, how are the sheep at your place?" The newcomer was clearly a smooth talker, speaking in a way that pleased everyone.

  "Alright, the sheep in our house has been cured by Dongdong!" Meng Ziqiang said with a tone of delight and a hint of pride.

  "Really? That's great, Dongdong! Can you also take a look at mine? I have several sheep at home that won't eat their feed!" The newcomer's eyes lit up as he walked forward and directly asked He Dong.

  "Alright! No problem!" Someone came to the door and offered to take him to a summoning point, and He Dong agreed without hesitation. However, just as he was about to follow the person out, he suddenly turned back and said to his elder uncle, "Uncle, I think that since the village's old veterinarian has left, the families who raise livestock must be in a panic. Why don't you go ask around and see whose animals are sick, and then make a list? Later, I'll help them take a look!"

  "Alright, I'll go borrow the village committee's loudspeaker and make an announcement!" Meng Ziqiang gave He Dong a look of approval.

  In this way, He Dong was busy in Qing Shan village for three whole days, and only then did he treat all the sick poultry and livestock in the entire village. Of course, some of the illnesses were very severe and couldn't be cured immediately. However, as long as He Dong's treatment method was correct, he would be able to obtain summoning points. So, when he finished his busy work, he suddenly discovered that his summoning points had actually reached over 110 points.

  He Dong recalled that almost every household in Qing Shan village raised some poultry or livestock, among which there were six households that specialized in raising sheep. These included chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, dogs, sheep, cats, rabbits and so on, totaling around two to three thousand heads, making it an extremely promising summoning point for a base.

  So in order to occupy this place for a long time, Ho Tung did not charge any fees throughout the rescue and treatment process, and also promised to only charge cost in the future.

  He Dong's approach instantly won the favor of all the people in Qing Shan Village. The mountain people are relatively simple and know how to be grateful for help, so during He Dong's stay in Qing Shan Village, wherever he went, he received extremely warm hospitality. Even the old village chief held He Dong's hand to express his gratitude. It is worth noting that the old village chief has a very high prestige in the village and is also of a higher generation, even Meng Zi Qiang calls him "Grandfather".

  "Uncle Ta! Don't be like this, or I'll be scared away. Besides, Qing Shan Village is also half my home, and doing something for my own family doesn't count as anything!" He Dong addressed the old village chief according to Meng Ziqiang's seniority.

  "Hehe, okay! You've been a kind child since you were little. I won't say more, but from now on, if anyone dares to bully you in Qing Shan village, tell me and I'll smash their pots!" The old village chief said with a smile.

  "Alright." He Dong smiled and nodded, then said to the old village chief, "Ta Lao, I'll leave my phone number with my eldest uncle. If anyone's livestock or poultry gets sick in our village, just give me a call."

  "Great, great! You're a good kid!" The old village chief was overjoyed at He Dong's promise. In recent years, the village has become wealthy and the rise of Nongjiale has also driven some livestock farming. However, there is an old saying that "a family with a lot of money but no veterinarian is not considered rich", which means that the risks in the livestock industry are extremely high, and without a good veterinarian, no one can afford to take on this risk.

  He Dong was also secretly pleased with himself, although he had used some tactics, his purpose was still good, and in the future, he didn't plan to make money from these people either. After all, being able to earn summoning points was already very satisfying for him.

  "Xin Xin, you've been working hard these past few days!" He Dong finally looked at Zhao Xin Xin with some guilt after the matter had come to an end.

  In the three days in Qing Shan Village, He Dong was extremely busy, but Zhao Xinxin wasn't relaxed either. Since He Dong arrived in a hurry and only brought some essential medical supplies, many things still needed to be purchased in town, so Zhao Xinxin took on the task of running errands.

  "It's not hard work, the people here are nice and the environment is good, I'm willing to help them!" Zhao Xinxin said with some emotion.

  "Now that the environment is good here, I remember there's a big reservoir not far from here, and the environment there is even more beautiful. Why don't I take you there to play before we leave?" He Dong suddenly suggested, also as a way to make up to Zhao Xinxin.

  "Great! Great!" As expected, as soon as she heard about playing, Zhao Xinxin immediately clapped her hands joyfully.
