Leisurely Life: I Have Ten Thousand Acres of Grassland

Chapter 324 - 321: The White Deer Grew Antlers, Like an Immortal Beast!

Jiang Feng finished treating the wounds of the roe deer.

At the same time, he instructed Lin Wansen and Ma He to hold the body of the roe deer while he set its leg bone straight and applied a plaster cast.

Now, it just needs time to heal.

But for a long period, this silly roe deer will have to lie on its side on the ground, unable to walk.

This silly creature is severely injured; it’s still uncertain whether it can survive.

Nature is cruel; without any medical conditions, serious injuries for animals mean death.

Jiang Feng was busy for more than two hours.

When he stood up, his disinfected gloves were stained with blood, his dust-free suit was splattered, and he was covered in sweat.

True to its reputation for being silly, the silly roe deer was a bit scared at first, but once the situation stabilized, it lay there with a dumbfounded look, munching on grass.

Its pitch-black eyes were constantly watching Jiang Feng, full of curiosity.

As if it wasn’t injured at all!

These silly roe deers are like this, extremely curious and unconditionally trusting of humans.

Decades ago, when hunting was still allowed, hunters would shoot at a roe deer, and even if they missed, it wouldn’t matter.

Soon enough, the silly creature would come back on its own, curious about the noise.

In those days, its silliness almost led to its extinction.

Fortunately, it later became a second-class protected animal, and its numbers began to increase.

Moreover, with economic development, people’s awareness improved, and everyone started to like protecting wildlife.

People in the Northeast are quite fond of roe deers.

However, sometimes when they come over, blinking their innocent big eyes, full of curiosity, one can’t help but want to give it a nudge.

The appearance of a roe deer is quite adorable.

Not as agile as a Sika Deer, yet it has a certain silly charm.

Jiang Feng took off his clothes and gloves, went inside to take a shower and change.

Lin Wansen and several other staff members were there.

The drone was also streaming live.

The live stream showed an audience of over 100,000, with the actual number being about 300,000.

Everyone was very concerned about the roe deer’s condition.

[Can it be saved? The rancher was busy for so long.]

[The rancher’s technique is very professional. I’ve been a veterinarian for years, and I might not handle this level of fracture well.]

[I hope this silly roe deer will be okay!]

[Poor little thing!]

[It seems quite happy to me.]

Barrages kept scrolling.

As a large ranch surrounded by natural ecology, protecting wildlife is a duty.

Jiangfeng Ranch has rescued many animals, and animal lovers know this.

So, when an animal is injured, people bring it to Jiang Feng.

The silly roe deer’s mood was very stable.

Besides being unable to stand, it didn’t show much discomfort.

The ranch staff fed it fresh grass, which it continuously ate without refusal.

It seems that it will rely on the ranch for food for a long while.

At this moment, Ma He asked the veterinarian Lin Wansen:

"Dr. Lin, can this roe deer survive? It looks severely injured, with bleeding from the abdomen."

"If a horse or cow sustained such injuries, they basically wouldn’t survive."

Lin Wansen looked at the treated roe deer and replied:

"The internal organs aren’t damaged, just external injuries. As long as the wounds don’t get infected, it should survive."

"The rancher handled the bone very well. The roe deer should be able to stand up later."

"But it might limp a bit, and recovery will determine the outcome."

"It could also make a full recovery."

The two chatted casually.

The ranch had another animal, which was no surprise to anyone.

As employees, they were aware that Jiang Feng liked to keep some peculiar animals.

Sika Deers and alpacas are still common; having Sika Deer on the prairie is routine, and some alpacas are also found on tourist ranches.

But keeping wolves, Golden Eagles, Tibetan Foxes, and even having a wild boar in the pigsty—that’s not something anyone can do.

Now there’s also a silly roe deer.

He raises protected animals.

Soon, Jiang Feng returned, with a change of clothes.

He checked the roe deer’s condition and said to Ma He:

"It’s mostly fine now. Old Ma, when you feed the Sika Deers, give it some grass too."

"Just let it lie here usually; it won’t move much since its leg hurts."

"If it rains, move it inside."

Hearing Jiang Feng’s words, Ma He quickly replied:

"Okay, rancher, no problem, I’ll take care of it."

The silly roe deer, seeing Jiang Feng return, continued eating while curiously observing him.

During the two hours of treatment earlier, it had been staring at Jiang Feng, its curiosity immense.

It probably recognized Jiang Feng too.

At this time, Ma He spoke to Jiang Feng again:

"Rancher, there’s something else. Fuzhu has started growing antlers recently."

"Its antlers are quite peculiar, sort of white-gray, with a translucent, jelly-like appearance."

"Looks quite magical, like an Immortal Beast."

Upon hearing this from Ma He, Jiang Feng’s interest was piqued.

It had been a while since he checked on the white Sika Deer and its health status.

It’s actually starting to grow antlers.

So, Jiang Feng entrusted the task of taking care of the injured roe deer to Lin Wansen.

Jiang Feng had already handled what needed to be done, the roe deer’s injury was stable, and all that remained was checking and upkeep, which Lin Wansen was fully capable of managing.

The roe deer was settled in an empty pen, with green grass all over the ground, the environment was quite nice.

Letting it rest there would be just fine.

Lin Wansen was responsible for disinfecting it from time to time as there were lots of flies and mosquitoes in the grass, so proper prevention was necessary.

After giving instructions, Jiang Feng headed towards the Deer Shed to check on the Sika Deer.

Recently, the Sika Deer were let out to play every day, sometimes for two consecutive days, and it was necessary to ride a horse to find them.

Today, the Deer Shed’s deer happened to all be inside.

Jiang Feng entered the Deer Shed and went to see Fuzhu.

The viewers online who heard Ma He mention the white Sika Deer were also very concerned about its condition.

"Fuzhu, Little Fuzhu!"

Jiang Feng called out twice inside.

The Sika Deer all looked out upon hearing his voice.

And the little white Sika Deer ran out from the herd.

As soon as this Sika Deer appeared, the viewers in the live stream were immediately captivated.

Its fur was pure white, and its body was slender, agile, with clever eyes.

At this moment, it had two small antlers on its head.

The emergence of antlers immediately transformed its demeanor.

These antlers had not yet fully matured; once they did, Fuzhu’s looks and demeanor would elevate even further.

[Such a handsome Sika Deer!]

[I’m a new fan, what is this? An Immortal Beast?]

[A white Sika Deer raised by the ranch owner, born from a bought female deer, incredibly rare!]

[All the animals on this ranch are amazing. I’m envious!]

The viewers were amazed.

Jiang Feng also walked up to the front of the little white Sika Deer.

He petted the Sika Deer’s chin and then carefully examined its antlers.

The Sika Deer’s antlers had two small buds and had already forked into two, resembling small branches.

Ordinary antlers are dark brown or brown, leaning a bit towards black.

However, Fuzhu’s antlers were whitish-grey, brighter in color.

Viewing it like this, it seemed even more magical.

Already extraordinary, and crowned with shining antlers.

Once its antlers mature and naturally shed, this pair of antlers could fetch a high price.

This Sika Deer was indeed rare.

After all, it was a product of gene selection.

Jiang Feng calculated in his mind, based on the current market price.

The most valuable individual animal in the ranch should be the breeding bull, worth more than fifty thousand, and as a top-grade breeding bull, its high economic value and price were expected.

The second should be this white Sika Deer.

In fact, according to the principle that rarity is precious, the price of the white Sika Deer could even surpass the breeding bull.

Of course, Jiang Feng certainly would not sell this Sika Deer.

The Sika Deer stood obediently beside Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng addressed the viewers in the live stream:

"The Sika Deer is starting to grow antlers, and in a while, they’ll probably be fully grown."

"Generally, when the antlers of a Sika Deer grow to a certain size, the Deer Shed would directly cut them off."

"Because male deer like to fight, and with antlers, they’re more aggressive and prone to injury."

"They’ll also cut the antlers before they grow too big to harvest some velvet, which we also use in small amounts for making wine and soup."

"Living in nature means abundant resources."

"It’s normal to use a bit of caterpillar fungus, ginseng slices, or deer antler in the soup."

Upon hearing Jiang Feng’s words, the comments section became lively instantly.

[Ranch owner, please don’t show off!]

[It’s too much, too much, at most I soak some goji berries, and you’re soaking deer antlers and ginseng, can’t compare!]

[I’m not envious at all!]

[Does deer antler really work well? I don’t believe it unless you send me some.]

Jiang Feng then looked at the other Sika Deer in the Deer Shed.

Their condition was very good after arriving here.

The fur of Sika Deer raised in the Deer Shed was a greyish color, giving off a dirty impression.

After all, they were raised for profit.

However, the Sika Deer at Jiangfeng Ranch had bright orange fur, a sign of good nutrition, environment, and living conditions.

They were also pleasant to look at.

The Sika Deer didn’t fear Jiang Feng much and gathered around him when he came in.

Among them, the white Sika Deer was the most agile.

"Once Fuzhu grows up and matures, it’ll be great."

"By then, it will definitely be the most handsome animal on the ranch."

Jiang Feng remarked.

Hearing Jiang Feng’s words, the viewers were also eager to see Fuzhu’s growth.

A modern-day Immortal Beast, this white Sika Deer existed in reality.

As if it did not belong to this world.

If it grows up, it will indeed be a beautiful sight.

Fuzhu’s ears twitched slightly, as if listening to the sounds, and Jiang Feng touched its head while it stood quietly.

Seeing this scene, the viewers became even more envious.

Having all sorts of cute pets to pet anytime and anywhere, such a life truly seemed unimaginably delightful.
