Zhao Jun was awakened by the sound of Wang Meilan cooking. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was half past five. Zhao Jun hurriedly got up from the bed.
Get dressed, get off the kang, wash up, and go to the hut.
When Zhao Jun came back from outside, the food was already on the table, stir-fried pork with bracken and rice.
Bracken is a thing that is tender when eaten, but it is the most susceptible to aging.
Let's put it this way, if you go up the mountain to pick bracken and carry the bracken home from the mountain, the bracken will not be as tender as when you just picked it.
Therefore, mountain people picked bracken and rolled it on the soil, saying that it could lock in a certain amount of moisture.
Wild vegetables are eaten in the beginning of spring, while vegetables should be dried after the beginning of autumn when the weather is clear and crisp.
Bracken is easy to age, and spring is not the season for drying vegetables. If it is dried for two days, the bracken will be too old to chew. Therefore, some special measures must be taken.
When Wang Meilan and the others were drying the bracken, they rolled the bracken into the ashes. The ashes of the vegetation in the stove pit were not buried, and there were many benefits to doing so. It not only prevented the bracken from getting old, but also dried it quickly. It could be dried in the afternoon on a sunny day.
. And the dried vegetables wrapped in ashes and dried will not return to moisture or grow hair in the hot weather.
Before eating, boil it in hot water and wash it with water. All the ash will be gone, and the original color of wild vegetables will appear cleanly.
The stir-fried pork with bracken is full of flavor, and paired with freshly steamed rice, it's so fragrant that it's a perfect meal.
"Tsk! Forgot!" After taking a bite of rice, Wang Meilan slapped the table and said, "When Brother Zhao left, why didn't you think of getting him two bags of rice?"
Zhao Jun's family has black soil here, and the rice produced is called Daohuaxiang. As its name suggests, this rice is mainly reflected in the word "xiang".
During the steaming and stewing process, the rice emits a rich aroma. When cooking with the window open in the summer, if someone is simmering rice, people two rooms away can smell it.
When you eat it, the aroma is there too. But it is not as good as smelling it when you eat it. The main reason for eating it is the good taste, chewy texture, and meaty texture, and it does not regenerate afterward.
"It's not that good." Zhao Youcai said vaguely as he shoveled some rice into his mouth, "Let's do it next time. Give him more next time."
After saying this, Zhao Youcai looked at Zhao Jun and asked, "Are you going to work today?"
"Yeah, Dad." Zhao Jun nodded and asked, "Didn't you say that Uncle Zhou was looking for me?"
With that said, Zhao Jun turned to Wang Meilan with a smile and said, "Mom, what did my brother Zhang say? This is the chance for our Zhao family to take off!"
"Oh!" Wang Meilan smiled from ear to ear. She listened to Zhang Yuanmin's words yesterday. When washing rice this morning, Wang Meilan made a rough calculation in her mind.
According to Zhang Yuanmin's plan and the data provided by Zhao Jun, after a spring hunting trip by the Yongxing Brigade, he could collect 70% of the fur goods and go to the city to find an acquaintance to resell them, which would be a profit of several thousand dollars!
If the Yong'an Forest District were to hold a spring hunt, the scale would definitely not be as large as that of the Yongxing Brigade, but it would not be much different if the surrounding villages were included.
If the two villages were renovated together, they wouldn't be able to earn more than 10,000 yuan, right?
Wang Meilan's eyes lit up, flashing with a golden light.
"Fuck!" Zhao Youcai cursed in a low voice, turned his head slightly and glanced at Zhao Jun. He was not very satisfied with what Zhao Jun said about the Zhao family gang.
"We're eating, the kids are in front of us, don't be so snarky!" Wang Meilan looked at Zhao Youcai coldly and asked, "What, you're not from the old Zhao family?"
Zhao Youcai twitched the corner of his mouth, but did not dare to speak, and just kept his head down while eating.
Wang Meilan glared at Zhao Youcai again, but when she faced Zhao Jun again, Wang Meilan changed her face instantly and said with a smile: "Son, you went today and had a good chat with Uncle Zhou. What did you say? When you come back, tell your mother."
After saying that, Wang Meilan gave Zhao Jun a piece of shredded pork with chopsticks.
Zhao Jun responded with a smile in Zhao Youcai's eyes. After the meal, Zhao Jun lay on the kang and rested for a while. It wasn't until Li Baoyu came to Zhao Jun that he got up and put on his clothes.
After putting on the big cotton monkey issued by the forest farm and the three-piece suit woven by Ma Ling, Zhao Jun, Zhao Youcai, and Li Baoyu went out, met Li Dayong, and the four of them walked outside the village together.
After catching the shuttle bus, he went straight to the forest farm. When he got off at the station, Zhao Jun followed the flow of people and walked towards the farm.
As soon as he entered the forest farm gate, Zhao Jun was stunned for a moment and asked Li Baoyu beside him: "Ruhai was on duty yesterday, today..."
Although Zhao Jun didn't come to work for a long time, he still remembered that Li Ruhai liked to stand at the door of the mail room early in the morning, with one hand behind his back and the other raised to greet people.
"Ha!" When asked by Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu smiled and said to Zhao Jun: "We took off the Chinese tunic suit and took off the marmot hat. He was afraid that others would laugh at him, so he stayed in the mail room."
"Haha..." Zhao Jun was amused. In fact, Li Ruhai's clothes were not bad now, but compared with what he wore before, they were not even a little worse. Among those people in the forest farm, who has something wrong with Li Ruhai? It's his turn this time
Everyone saw his joke.
Listening to the conversation between Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu, Han Dachun, who was traveling with him, asked Li Dayong: "Dayong, can you just wear that marmot hat?"
"You're such a bastard." Li Dayong said angrily: "The boss doesn't even wear it, so I do?"
As the name suggests, the marmot hat is made of marmot skin.
Marmot, to put it bluntly, is a marmot. Hats made of its skin are not cheap. As recently as 1987, a marmot hat sold for nearly 300 yuan.
Therefore, in the forest area, only a few wealthy people can afford to wear this. Even Chu Anmin and Zhou Chunming do not wear this.
The marmot hat that Li Ruhai originally bought was a second-hand item that he picked up. It turned out to be worn by the small owner of the shop where Wang Fu went down to buy the goods.
This little boss made the same mistake as Zhao Jun in his previous life. He spent money playing cards and went out to get a lot of debt. The creditor blocked the door of his house and demanded money. He had no other choice, so he sold the things at home at cheap prices.
At that time, Li Ruhai spent all his money to buy this marmot hat for 85 yuan.
Although he was slapped twice by Jin Xiaomei later, the hat was indeed a big mistake and the child bought it with his own savings. Li Dayong and Jin Xiaomei ignored him.
As they walked into the venue, the flow of people slowly dispersed and everyone went to their posts. Zhao Jun went straight to the office building, preparing to meet Zhou Chunming.
As soon as he arrived in front of the office building, Zhao Jun heard someone calling him, and he knew it was Zhou Jianjun without even looking.
"Uncle Li!" Zhou Jianjun greeted Li Dayong. After Li Dayong replied, he went to the dispatch team, while Zhou Jianjun and Zhao Jun walked upstairs together.
"Is there nothing going on today?" Zhou Jianjun asked Zhao Jun as he walked.
"It's okay." Zhao Jun smiled and asked, "What's the matter, brother-in-law?"
Zhou Jianjun raised his hand and waved outward, saying, "Follow me down the mountain in a moment."
"Going down the mountain?" Zhao Jun was startled and asked, "What are you going to do, brother-in-law?"
"Do something with me." Zhou Jianjun said this, just to prevent Zhao Jun from asking any more questions, otherwise he would just tell him what to do when he went down the mountain.
Of course Zhao Jun understood, so he followed Zhou Jianjun to the door of Zhou Chunming's office, knocked twice and then opened the door.
Zhou Jianjun was in front and Zhao Jun was behind. When they entered the office, they saw that Zhou Chunming was alone. Zhou Jianjun said: "Dad, we are here."
"Uncle Zhou." Zhao Jun called out. Zhou Chunming stood up from behind his desk, capped his pen, pointed to the sofa over there, and called to Zhao Jun: "Xiao Jun, sit down."
Arriving at the sofa, Zhou Chunming pointed to the teacup on the table and said to Zhao Jun: "Pour yourself some water or something."
"Yes, sir." Zhou Chunming was not polite, and Zhao Jun didn't drink even if he wasn't thirsty.
"Oh!" Zhou Chunming handed the work manual in front of Zhao Jun and said: "Yesterday, Yongli Tang Daquan came and talked to me for a long time, saying that it is necessary to hold a spring hunting in our forest area.
As you know about our site, I am also the production director, the security director is always vacant, and the silviculture director Fan will be transferred after the Gregorian New Year. No one has come to work these days, and they are packing their things at home."
After Er Zhao slaughtered the cow, the two old rivals Zhou Chunming and Fan Zhisheng put aside their old grudges.
Fan Zhisheng, who was resigning in a few days, simply gave up all his rights to Zhou Chunming and went home to pack up his things and prepare to move with his wife and children.
Anyway, Boss Zhao’s investment has been decided, and Yongan Forestry Farm has no major issues that need to be discussed by the leaders. They only need to organize production step by step.
Unexpectedly, seeing that there were only three days left this year, Tang Daquan came to the door yesterday.
Zhou Chunming is very interested in spring hunting. In the past year, Yongan Forest Farm has made the mountain animals miserable. Today the wild boar is picking on people, and tomorrow the black blind man will kick people again.
Moreover, Chu Anmin said that the number of mountain livestock this year is particularly high. If there are more roe deer, rabbits and deer, there will be more tigers and leopards eating meat. This number increases and decreases in cycles, and I think there will be no less next year.
Therefore, whether it is from the perspective of protecting farmers or safeguarding production, it is necessary to conduct a spring hunting.
But the question is how to do spring hunting?
Zhou Chunming could discuss production matters for three days and three nights. But when it came to hunting, he knew nothing about it.
As he just said, he was the only one of the three farm managers. Zhou Chunming could only call the future production farm director Liu Renshan, the mountain farm technician Zheng Quan, and the forestry technician Feng Shaoping.
But these three people, like Zhou Chunming, live in mountain villages but do not hunt. Talking to them about business, fishing, and hunting is useless.
After the four of them got together and smoked a cigarette, Zhou Chunming muttered that he needed to find someone who understood.
When hunting was mentioned in Yong'an Forest District, everyone present immediately thought of Zhao Jun.
It is said that when Huo Qubing was in NB, Wei Qing had to step aside. Now that Zhao Youcai's reputation as the God of Wealth Spear has been overshadowed by the Cow Slaughter Cannon, everyone's first consideration is Zhao Jun, followed by Zhou Chengguo. And Zhou Chengguo injured his foot a while ago.
So the only option was to find Zhao Jun.
"I chatted with Bureau Chu about this matter yesterday." Zhou Chunming said: " Bureau Chu agreed and said that we would use our forest area as a pilot project. When the time comes to use guns and other things, the Bureau can provide some support. "
Chu Anmin was also very upset about the mountain animals hurting people, otherwise he wouldn't have proposed changing Zhao Jun's position.
Yesterday, Zhou Chunming only mentioned Yong'an Forest District's intention on the phone, but he didn't know yet whether it would work. Chu Anmin said that he supported it, and that he supported it strongly.
But he can only support part of the funds and equipment. Chu Anmin only made some suggestions on how to implement it. The specific details have to be explored and tried by Yong'an Forest District.
If Yong'an Forest District succeeds, other forest districts will be able to follow suit tomorrow. If Yong'an Forest District fails, they can also accumulate certain experience.
"That's good." Zhao Jun changed the subject and said, "Is that equipment given to us, or is it borrowed from us?"
"I borrowed it." Zhou Chunming said, "I said it was in the bureau. If I talk to the boss, I can get a hundred semi-automatic trees for us."
"That's a lot!" Zhao Jun asked again: "Where are the bullets?"
"Bring your own bullets." Zhou Chunming said: "Only our forestry workers can borrow guns. Anyone can borrow them, but they have to be returned when the job is done. How much can I get if I buy the bullets myself?"
"
"Yes." Zhao Jun nodded when he heard this. At this time, Zhou Chunming asked Zhao Jun: "What does Chu Bureau mean? We won't bear the bullets, but we can give more bonuses."
Speaking of this, Zhou Chunming paused for a moment before saying: "Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man."
"Ah?" Zhao Jun was stunned and said subconsciously: "Isn't he a common man?"
When he and Wang Meilan discussed paying Zhao Youcai to go up the mountain to hunt for treasure, Zhao Jun, who was semi-literate, said that with the heavy reward, there would be a man.
"What?" Zhou Chunming didn't hear clearly, so Zhao Jun said hurriedly: "Uncle Zhou, I think this is good. Let's get more bonuses and increase the number of prizes."
"Hey! That's right!" Zhou Chunming slapped his thigh and said, "This is what we studied as well. Bureau Chu and that... Tao Dabao of Yongxing, they are comrades in arms. Bureau Chu called us and we discussed it.
.
When the time comes, part of it will be given to the game and part to the court. In this way, our bonus will be twice as much as that of their team. When the people from other villages and the Lingnan gang hear about it, they will all come over."
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Yeah! This works!" Zhao Jun agreed with this from the bottom of his heart. These days, men, women and children can shoot. Although some people have average marksmanship, they can't do it with a gun.
Semi-automatic guns can basically protect yourself as long as you don't seek death or are careless.
In this way, when the bonus is high, everyone's enthusiasm will rise. The more skins and bile the hunters capture, the more they will earn.
"Okay, right?" Hearing Zhao Jun's approval, Zhou Chunming smiled and said, "Then let's do it after the Qingming Festival, when the winter sports are over and the weather gets warmer..."
"No, Uncle Zhou!" Zhao Jun heard this and hurriedly stopped Zhou Chunming's plan.
"Huh?" Zhou Chunming was startled and said, "Why not? Then the front is neither cold nor hot, the trees do not seal the door, and the grass does not grow in the pond. Isn't that just right?"
Yesterday, Chu Anmin called Tao Dabao and asked about the basic process. He also heard from Tao Dabao that the spring hunting in Yongxing starts after the New Year and the Lantern Festival, and does not start before the first lunar month.
Chu Anmin had different ideas about this time. He believed that the Yongxing Brigade's spring hunting was set at that time so as not to affect spring plowing. The first consideration in the forest area was not to cultivate land, but not to affect production.
The production tasks are getting heavier every year. The Chinese New Year has just ended, and how many days can we still work before the snow in the mountains clears up.
After all the busy work is over, how good would it be to go spring hunting in April? After the Qingming Festival, it is indeed neither cold nor hot, and you will not suffer from going up the mountain. The leaves have not sprouted, and the grass has not grown up, so it does not block the view of shooting.
When Chu Anmin expressed his idea, Zhou Chunming applauded with both hands. This was definitely not to lick the leader, but Zhou Chunming felt that it was really reasonable.
"That's what happened." Zhao Jun smiled faintly, affirming Zhou Chunming's statement first, and then said: "Uncle Zhou, during the siege after the Qingming Festival, grab the old sow, open it up and take out the piglets.
