Chapter 983

After chatting with Zhang Zhang Shuya for a while longer, Wang An finally took his leave.

After leaving the Zhang Gongan Bureau, Wang An originally wanted to go to Wu Dong's place, but thinking that starting tomorrow, for the next month, he would be in the county every day, Wang An gave up the idea of going to Wu Dong's.

So, Wang An rode the sidecar home.

As soon as the sidecar entered the village, Wang An heard two eagle cries, and immediately after, he saw two dark shadows swooping down from the sky toward him.

Looking closely, it was exactly Da Cang and Xiao Cang.

One had to say, eagle eyes are truly damn awesome; from such a distance, Da Cang and Xiao Cang could actually recognize Wang An.

And the reason Wang An could tell it was Da Cang and Xiao Cang was that he had sewn a piece of red cloth on each of their legs.

Not only were there red cloth strips sewn on their legs, but Wang An had also sewn red cloth strips on the legs of Da Jin and Xiao Jin.

There was no help for it; people in rural areas were quite averse to eagles. The main reason was that whether it was a sparrowhawk, a goshawk, or other eagles, most of them ate domestic chickens.

So the main purpose of the red cloth strip Wang An sewed on was to tell people who saw them that these eagles were raised by someone, so they didn't need to be afraid of them, but also shouldn't harm them.

And the reason it was sewn on, rather than tied with a knot, was that sewing didn't have a lump, whereas tying a knot would leave a large lump on the eagle's leg, affecting its flight.

Seeing these two little guys flying over, Wang An quickly stopped the sidecar and picked up the sheepskin pad from the side seat, wrapping it around his arm.

It was mainly because Wang An was wearing his uniform today, and the summer uniform was actually just a shirt. If an eagle grabbed him, not only would the clothes be torn by the eagle's claws, but even Wang An's arm would be left with several bloody gashes.

Just as Wang An got ready, Xiao Cang arrived, and immediately after, Da Cang turned in the air and also arrived.

When both eagles landed on the sheepskin pad, Wang An stroked their heads and feathers while saying with a grin:

"Are you two here to welcome me? Huh?"

Whether it was because of the spirit-opening powder or because Wang An had raised these four eagles from the time they were small, Da Cang and Xiao Cang, as well as Da Jin and Xiao Jin, were all especially human-like.

Wang An could give some short commands that they could understand. Of course, if the sentences were too long, they would look at Wang An with a face full of confusion, clearly unable to understand.

After being affectionate with Da Cang and Xiao Cang for a while, Wang An said to them:

"You two go home first."

As he gave the command, Wang An lifted his arm. Da Cang and Xiao Cang looked at Wang An and flapped their wings to fly up.

Watching Da Cang and Xiao Cang fly into the high sky, Wang An disengaged the clutch, shifted gears, and twisted the throttle to continue driving home.

Compared to Da Cang and Xiao Cang, Da Jin and Xiao Jin were more aloof. To be precise, the intelligence of these two golden eagles was slightly inferior to that of the two goshawks.

The reason for this is actually that golden eagles in the wild normally leave the nest to be independent after two years, while goshawks only need one year, or even less than a year, to leave the nest and be independent.

To put it plainly, goshawks mature earlier, while golden eagles mature later.

When Wang An arrived home, Da Cang and Xiao Cang were standing next to Da Jin and Xiao Jin waiting for Wang An to enter the courtyard, and in front of these four eagles lay their trophies.

It was two rats, one small rabbit, and one small bird Wang An didn't recognize that they had caught. He didn't know where they had caught these things.

What Wang An didn't expect was that these four eagles had actually learned to catch prey themselves. Fortunately, without exception, these things hadn't been torn apart and eaten by them, but were waiting for Wang An to feed them.

This point made Wang An feel quite at ease.

Because according to what was written on the silk cloth, eagles shouldn't learn to feed themselves actively for at least one year, otherwise they would run away nine times out of ten in the future.

If the eagles he had spent so much time and energy raising ran away before they could be of any use, Wang An would be miserable to death.

Tearing these small animals apart one by one and cutting meat strips dipped in spirit-opening powder, Wang An started feeding these four eagles.

Actually, feeding eagles normally doesn't need to be so precise. You can just cut larger small animals into small pieces and cut smaller ones into two halves, as long as the eagle can swallow them.

Because indigestible things like fur and feathers will be spat out by the eagle itself the next day.

However, if Wang An wants to control them without leaving any hidden dangers, he can't let them eat like that. He must give them the cognition that animals with fur cannot be eaten.

Only in this way will they always rely on Wang An, and even if they can catch prey themselves, they will still have to rely on Wang An to get food into their mouths.

One has to say, humans are the most ruthless.

At dinner, Wang An told his family that starting tomorrow, he would go to the Zhang Gongan Bureau every day to participate in training.

As soon as Wang An finished speaking, he heard Wang Wang Dazhu say indifferently:

"Then go. Your eldest sister went to such trouble to get you this job, so you should go if you have to."

After Wang Wang Dazhu finished speaking, Liu Liu Guilan immediately asked:

"Then you're training during the day, will you be back at night?"

Wang An thought for a moment and said hesitantly:

"It's not certain. Normally I can come back, but if there are many training tasks, I won't come back."

The reason he said this was because when chatting with Zhang Zhang Shuya, Wang An learned that training wasn't just about grappling and shooting; things like cultural classes, such as laws and regulations, case analysis, and some professional things, all needed to be learned and trained.

Liu Liu Guilan said with some hope upon hearing this:

"If only you could become a regular employee, then you wouldn't have to worry about anything in the future."

After saying this, Liu Liu Guilan smacked her lips, her eyes full of expectation.

Wang Wang Dazhu also immediately agreed upon hearing this:

"That would be great. We can talk about it once you become a regular."

I don't know why, but for Liu Liu Guilan's generation, having a regular job is always the most important thing.

They won't consider how much money you can earn, nor will they consider how much money you have. Anyway, in their view, these things are not as good as having a regular job.

Wang An looked at his father and mother, who were full of beautiful thoughts, and silently lowered his head to eat.

After dinner, he stayed for a little while before Wang An led Mu Mu Xueqing back to their own house.

Due to the successive battles with Sun Nian at noon, Wang An fell asleep not long after getting on the kang.

Just as Wang An was setting up a chessboard with the God of Sleep and about to fight, Mu Mu Xueqing suddenly frowned and sniffed.

Immediately after, Mu Mu Xueqing lifted the quilt and slapped Wang An's big butt hard.

After hearing a crisp "pop," Wang An let out an "ow" and sprang up from the kang.

Thanks to "Empire Emperor" for the tip, thank you!

Thanks to "Black Brother Niu" for the tip, thank you!

Wishing both big brothers happiness and joy, and everything going smoothly!
