Chapter 633 Plowing Ox

The first mount competition started soon.

Lawrence, Catherine, Salier, Cassandra, Emerald and others came to watch.

The venue of the competition was in the open space behind the Flying Fish Harbor, and only here was there enough space to accommodate 20,000 to 30,000 people.

The race could not be broadcast live, so most people mainly watched the selection of oxen and some mounts.

Lawrence sat on a stone platform and watched the animals on the flat ground below.

The first one to come on stage was a strange animal that Lawrence did not recognize.

This strange animal also aroused the curiosity of the nearby audience and warriors.

It has a snake-like tail, a horse-like body, and a rooster-like head of a raptor with a comb.

The limbs under its feet are like leopards. It may be caused by the situation of being surrounded by many people. Its limbs have extended sharp claws, and the snake-like tail also opens its mouth and spits out snake tongue.

"What kind of animal is this?" Lawrence looked at the man holding the strange animal, "Who are you?"

The man's body was covered by a robe, and even his head and neck were hidden in circles of cloth strips, with only his eyes and nose uncovered.

"I am Aize from the Western Kingdom of Elam. This is a very rare bird-snake beast in the Kingdom of Eize."

Sariel, who was sitting next to Lawrence, looked at Lawrence, "The Kingdom of Elam in the Western Kingdom? I haven't heard of it."

Aize replied, "It's in a place further west. It takes more than half a month to get to the Kingdom of Waves by boat from my hometown near the sea."

Lawrence looked at the bird-snake beast behind Aize, "It doesn't look dangerous, or is this the result of your domestication?"

Aize reached out and stroked the back of the bird-snake beast, and introduced the strange beast to Lawrence in front of him.

"As long as the bird-snake beast is full, it will not attack casually. After I brought it to this land, it has been able to eat a full stomach and has been very honest these days."

The bird-snake beast that was touched by Aize soon lay on the ground. Even though it was surrounded by a large number of humans and breathed the smell of humans, it did not show anxiety or fear.

Lawrence showed a satisfied look, "It is rare to see an animal like this that is not afraid of people. Thank you for bringing this novel and valuable animal from the far west. Are you willing to keep it? If not, I am willing to give you a deposit, and you just need to bring some more bird-snake beasts."

"Of course, I can also cooperate with the nobles of your kingdom and exchange a few beautiful bird-snake beasts through goods."

Aize said respectfully: "Thank you for your generosity and tolerance. I brought it here just to make money. I am willing to work for you and bring more bird-snake beasts."

The bird-snake beast is not as big as a horse, and its height is about the same as that of a cow. It doesn't seem to have a strong load-bearing capacity.

I don't know what it tastes like.

Lawrence wants to see and learn more about the strange creatures in this world.

"Very good, now take the bird snake beast to the rest area. I will find you to learn more about the West after the game."

"Yes, prophet." Azer pulled the rope loop on the forelimbs and chest of the bird snake beast and took this strange creature that looked docile to the rest area.

Lawrence continued to evaluate the remaining animals.

The second one to come on stage was Fries riding a big wild boar.

Fries quickly jumped off the big wild boar and said respectfully after landing on the ground: "Prophet, this is the wild boar I raised, the offspring of Pig! The most majestic boar!"

The big wild boar in the field is indeed very majestic, with strong and bulging muscles, sharp fangs, and very clean body. The gray and shiny fur reflects a rich luster under the sun.

This big guy eats a lot, and the cost of raising it is more than the cost of Fries raising eight or nine women.

But the role of women is only to give birth to children, and the role of combat mounts is to protect him from continuing to gain merits on the battlefield, and also to protect him from dying easily on the battlefield.

For warriors and generals, BMW is more valuable than beauty.

Lawrence didn't want to comment on these big boars. In an era of increasing productivity, this kind of large animal has no much value.

After a few words of praise, Lawrence quickly continued to look at the next animal.

The merchants in the south brought red bird-lizard beasts.

The nobles in the west brought big-horned goats.

The descendants of the snow cave people in the north brought pure white snow dogs.

The merchants in the east brought tarata beasts that looked like giant pangolins.

Lawrence soon saw Yu Bao riding a calf into the venue.

The existence of the little Yu Bao was much more conspicuous than that of the cow, but Yu Bao didn't realize this. It had just seen a lot of strange animals, but it was still very confident in its little calf brother.

"Moo! Moo!" Yu Bao was now on the back of the little calf brother, and he shouted happily to Lawrence.

Lawrence smiled and said, "Yu Bao, you take good care of your cow."

Yu Bao nodded happily.

Lawrence did not comfort Yubao. The calves, ducks and fish that Yubao took care of were much better than those grown naturally outside, and were more obedient and healthier than those animals in farmers' homes.

Brother Xiaoniu was Yubao's brother. He had been drinking milk with this cow since Yubao was old enough to understand.

Although it always drove Brother Xiaoniu away and prevented him from drinking milk, it would only come over when Yubao was full, but Brother Xiaoniu's meals were still very good.

After Xiaoyubao became rich, he never forgot his buddy. After knowing that the calf did not eat fish, he changed the feed to the grass and vegetables that the calf and the mother cow liked to eat.

Lawrence walked down from the platform and began to observe the condition of the bull closely.

The physical development of this calf is already at the level of a healthy bull. At the same time, the skin is healthy and the body is clean. It does not have the dirty spots and parasites that most oxen have.

Lawrence's main purpose this time is to improve the technology and attention related to oxen.

"Fles, I remember you raised cattle." Lawrence called Fles.

Fles did raise cattle, "Yes, prophet, you gave us several cattle at that time, and the descendants of those cattle are still there."

It was more than ten years ago, and the cattle that were rewarded at that time had long been retired and eaten.

Lawrence asked, "Look at the cows that Yubao raises. They have no parasites, no skin diseases, and are healthy."

"Seraven is not here. He should take a look and then learn from Yubao how to raise cattle."

Yubao felt like he was praising himself, and his expression became even happier.

Lawrence called several agricultural managers to come and see Brother Niu.

The breeding of oxen requires a direction, and the calf that Yubao takes good care of has set a direction for everyone.

Feed, daily residence, care and cleaning methods, and some responses to illness.

Lawrence does not need the kind of bulls full of muscles, but healthy, docile and capable oxen.

But if the championship is given to this calf, most of the others will not be convinced.

After all, in most people's cognition, the championship should be given to the strong, mighty and handsome one.

Lawrence thought for two seconds and still gave Brother Niu a championship, the champion of the ox group.

The rest of the pigs and pigs, sheep and sheep, dogs and dogs, and strange animals will not be selected as champions separately, but only in the four tracks of cattle, sheep, dogs and pigs. (End of this chapter)
