As soon as the gunshot rang out, the Siberian leopard fell to the ground, and the hunting dogs rushed forward like crazy.
The twelve people in the outer circle quickly stepped forward and helped the eleven people catch the hunting dogs.
Taking this opportunity, Zhao Jun rushed under the tree with his gun in hand.
Zhao Jun did a good job with the shot just now. He shot the head with one shot and killed the Siberian leopard.
Zhao Jun slung the gun over his shoulder, pulled the leopard's tail with one hand, grabbed one of the Siberian leopard's hind legs with the other, and struggled to pull the Siberian leopard upside down.
"Brother!" Li Baoyu came over to help. The two of them drained the Siberian leopard's blood without disemboweling it.
Then, Zhao Jun used a deerskin knife to cut the Siberian leopard's neck and peel off the skin along the way.
If this is a roe deer, it's easy to peel off. After peeling off a corner, stretch the skin with one hand, and use a fist with the other hand to punch between the skin and flesh, and directly open a large piece.
But Zhao Jun did not dare to trim the leopard skin that was worth over ten thousand yuan. He and Li Baoyu peeled off the leopard skin very carefully.
Before leaving home, the Zhao family made full preparations. Li Baoyu took out a long cloth bag sewn with white cloth from his shoulder bag and packed the leopard skin rolled up by Zhao Jun.
At this time, all the hunting dogs had calmed down. They were sitting, lying down, or sitting around, waiting for Zhao Jun to share the meat with them.
As a member of the Zhao family who specialized in dirty work, Jie Chen stepped forward to disembowel the white-striped leopard.
Looking at the swollen belly of the white-striped leopard and smoking with Li Chunming and other security guards, the nagging Wang Qiang warned him, "Minister, be careful not to injure your intestines or something."
"No way, uncle." Jie Chen was very confident in his skills in this area, but before cutting the knife, Jie Chen raised his head and glanced at Zhao Jun. Li Baoyu glanced at it and said with a smile: "This guy has a belly."
"Haha." Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this, and then heard Li Baoyu say to him: "Brother, this local leopard ate more than thirty kilograms of meat and didn't even digest it, right?"
"Ah?" Zhao Jun was startled, and Li Baoyu said again: "Mutton is better than native leopard meat. How about we trim the mutton and feed it to the dogs?"
It's okay for Li Baoyu to think so. The meat of native leopard is not delicious, and its texture and taste are not as good as mutton.
The mutton eaten by the leopard is still undigested in its stomach, and dogs don't think the leopard is dirty. It's good to cut open the leopard's stomach and feed the minced meat to the dog.
But Zhao Jun shook his head without thinking, "No, no."
"Why not?" Li Baoyu asked. Before Zhao Jun could answer, Wang Qiang said over there: "You fed the dog a craving, what should you do?"
As soon as Wang Qiang said these words, Li Baoyu clicked his eyes twice and became silent.
The Zhao family's dogs are not guard dogs, but hunting dogs. They will regard the meat they have eaten as prey.
After listening to Wang Qiang's words, Li Chunming asked curiously: "What, after this dog eats the mutton, will it drive away the sheep next time?"
"That's not true." Wang Qiang said with a smile: "My brother-in-law slaughters cows, and he doesn't even dare to feed the scraps to the dogs."
"Ah?" When Wu Ruixiang heard this, he was very surprised and said: "Slaughter the cow? Didn't you say that your brother-in-law is a cook? Why did you kill the big animal?"
"Haha..." Wang Qiang smiled faintly, raised his hand and pointed behind Wu Ruixiang, and asked at the mountain opposite: "Team Leader Wu, I see that mountain is quite high? Isn't there a big skin on it?"
Wu Ruixiang was changed by Wang Qiang. He turned around and glanced at the mountain Wang Qiang pointed at, and then said: "You are really right. On the top of that mountain, when the snow fell, there were no traces of livestock except for big skin footprints."
."
…
While the Zhao family's dog gang shared their prey, Li Ruhai walked in Nanshan Village with a sullen face.
There are two family areas in Little Sequoia Forest Farm, one is Nanshan Village and the other is Beishan Village.
It's said to be a village, but it's not that big, and its population is about the same as that of Yong'an Tun and Yongsheng Tun.
The two villages are very close to each other, separated by a field of corn.
"Like the sea, like the sea!" Zhang Yuanmin followed behind, two or three meters behind Li Ruhai. His legs were short and he was recovering from a serious illness, so he couldn't walk further than Li Ruhai.
Li Ruhai stopped and waited for Zhang Yuanmin to come over. Li Ruhai looked at him and said, "Brother Zhang, I told you not to come, so you have to come with me."
"Why, do you think your brother is walking too slowly?" Zhang Yuanmin held up his gun belt and said to Li Ruhai: "I'm here, aren't I going to protect you? What if you let a local leopard take it away?
."
Hearing Zhang Yuanmin's words, Li Ruhai looked him up and down and said, "Brother Zhang, if you have this intention, you wouldn't have beaten me last night."
"Oh my god!" Zhang Yuanmin took half a step back, looked at Li Ruhai with wide eyes, and said, "Ruhai, why are you talking like this? How can your brother Zhang do that?"
"Ha!" Li Ruhai sneered and walked out of the village.
Seeing that Li Ruhai was heading to the forest farm, Zhang Yuanmin hurriedly asked: "Ruhai, why don't we go to their Beicun village?"
"What's the point of going?" Li Ruhai said: "Nancun doesn't have it, nor does Beicun have it."
At this time, Li Ruhai felt very unhappy.
After breakfast, he came to Nanshan Village to collect the skins. As soon as he entered the village, Li Ruhai walked from house to house.
This child is well-spoken and has a special affinity when he talks and laughs. No matter where he goes, he talks or chats without letting his words fall to the floor.
But Li Ruhai's work in Nanshan Village was not going smoothly, and the problem was not Li Ruhai's fault.
This small redwood forest farm, mountain farm, and forest trees are all special. The density of sables on the mountain is much thicker than that in the Yong'an forest area.
A piece of sable skin costs over a thousand yuan, which is as much as a worker's salary for a year.
Therefore, when the holidays come, even the forest farm workers go up and down the mountain to hunt for big hides using boards and traps.
This is true for all workers, not to mention those hooligans and street gangsters.
It can also be said that every household in Nanshan Village hunts big skin.
In the past two hours, Li Ruhai visited a total of seven houses. From the snowfall to now, during most of the winter, the one with the least harvest of these seven had only two big skins. The one with the most had six.
The seven families added together have as many as twenty big skins.
Not to mention how much these big skins can be sold for, Zhao's Chamber of Commerce will add five yuan to take away all these big skins. When they are sold in Hebei after the year, the profit will be nearly two thousand yuan.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But the problem is that these seven companies have already sold their big skins.
The difference between the Little Sequoia Forest District, the Yongan Forest District, and the Yongxing Brigade is that the Little Sequoia Forest Farm has a supply and marketing cooperative.
In the Yong'an Forest District, the mountain runners of the Yongxing Brigade, as long as they are not in urgent need of money, they will go to the mountain before the year, and again before spring farming after the new year. These two times, they will go to the mountain before and after the year.
All the mountain goods I saved later were sold.
Mountain runners in the Little Sequoia Forest area also sell their goods once they go to the mountains, but they go home when they go down the mountain, and the supply and marketing cooperative is on their way home.
Therefore, the mountain runners here in Little Sequoia will sell one big skin when they go up the mountain, and sell two when they go down the mountain.
All he took home was money, not skins.
It's hard for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Even if Li Ruhai has a lotus tongue and no skins at home, how can he buy them?
This is not to blame Li Ruhai for being incompetent, but Li Ruhai felt very uncomfortable.
Hearing Li Ruhai say, "There is no such thing in Nancun, nor in Beicun." Zhang Yuanmin thought that the child was going back to the forest farm.
After leaving Nanshan Village, Li Ruhai indeed walked towards the forest farm. But when he was halfway there, Li Ruhai suddenly ran towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
Zhang Yuanmin and Li Ruhai entered the supply and marketing cooperative. This supply and marketing cooperative is not big, and its scale is definitely not as good as those in the city, but the common things used at home are available in this supply and marketing cooperative.
Just like Wei Huaixin said yesterday, this supply and marketing cooperative has four rooms, one of which is for collecting mountain goods. There is no business of collecting mountain goods at this time, so the door is closed tightly.
In the three rooms in front, the counters and shelves are on the north side to avoid light. In front of the south window that lets in the sunlight, there is a row of wooden shelves 70 to 80 centimeters high.
There are large curtains tied with sorghum poles on the shelves. On the curtains, fungus, hazel mushrooms, hericium, morels and other mountain products are dried.
Around the stove in the middle, twelve or three women were sitting.
There are no small shops in Nancun and Beicun, so villagers have to come to this supply and marketing cooperative to buy things.
Women come here to buy things and chat, but the people from the supply and marketing cooperative don't care.
As soon as Li Ruhai and Zhang Yuanmin came in, what they saw attracted everyone's attention.
This is not only because of Li Ruhai's cool outfit, but mainly because these two people are strangers.
Li Ruhai walked to the counter, took out a wad of money from his pocket, took out a fifty-cent note and put it on the counter, saying, "Come and welcome the Spring Festival."
"Huh?" Zhang Yuanmin looked at Li Ruhai in shock.
There was a man sitting at the counter. He was probably in his forties. After taking a look at Li Ruhai, he stood up and asked Li Ruhai: "Young man, are you here to help us fight the local leopards?"
"That's my brother, my eldest brother." Li Ruhai smiled and said, "I just came for a walk."
"Ah..." After listening to what Li Ruhai said, the man took out a pack of Yingchun from the counter, put it on Li Ruhai's fifty cents, and said: "Take it and smoke it, you don't need any more money. I'll record it for you when you're done."
In Secretary Wei’s account.”
"No need to bother." Li Ruhai picked up the cigarette but left the money on the counter and said, "I smoke, so I'll give you the money."
As he spoke, Li Ruhai opened the cigarette pack, skillfully took out a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth.
Zhang Yuanmin was stunned by this scene.
Li Ruhai celebrated the 15th day of the New Year. When Zhang Yuanmin was as old as Li Ruhai, he was already rolling leaf cigarettes and smoking.
But Li Dayong and Jin Xiaomei were very strict with Li Ruhai and did not allow him to smoke or drink before he was sixteen years old.
When he was at home, Li Ruhai behaved very well, and no one knew he could smoke.
Li Ruhai, holding a cigarette in his mouth, said to the man at the counter: "Master, lend me a fire."
Hearing this, the man turned around and took the unpacked matches, took out a pack and gently threw it in front of Li Ruhai, saying, "Take it and use it."
A pack of matches didn't cost much, so Li Ruhai didn't care. He pushed the matchbox and took out a match, struck it, and lit a cigarette.
Li Ruhai took a puff of cigarette skillfully, glanced at the women sitting around the stove, turned around and asked the person at the counter: "Master, what's your surname?"
"Excuse me, my surname is Liu." The man said, "My name is Liu Changshan."
"Ah, Master Liu." Li Ruhai smiled when he heard this and said, "Master Liu, do you belong to the forest farm?"
"No." Liu Changshan shook his head and said, "I am from the supply and marketing cooperative. We built the supply and marketing cooperative here in 1983. I came here in 1985."
"Ah..." Li Ruhai nodded slightly and asked again: "Master Liu, are you the only one in this supply and marketing cooperative?"
"Ah." Liu Changshan said: "I am enough alone. Whether you buy or sell this thing, you have accounts. I will keep the accounts clearly. As long as the goods are correct.
"
Hearing what he said, Li Ruhai nodded again.
Just when Li Ruhai wanted to ask something else, a woman came in from outside.
This woman looked to be twenty years old. When she saw her coming in, an old woman in her fifties stretched her neck and looked at her and asked: "Third daughter-in-law, why did you come out on your own? Where is your eldest child?"
"Asleep, Aunt Sun." The third daughter-in-law said, "I left the house for him, so I came out in a hurry."
"What are you doing out here?" Another woman said, "I'll take whatever the three boys bring back to you later."
"No need, Sister-in-law Wang." The third daughter-in-law smiled and said, "I just happened to buy a can of malted milk."
As he said that, the three young wives rushed to the counter.
She bought a can of malted milk and did not leave. Instead, she joined a group of women and chatted with her. From what she said, she didn't go home right away because she was waiting for her man to give her something.
"Huh? Do you think it's different for a third-year-old boy to be a father? He knows the Gu family and knows how much he loves his wife."
When someone praised her husband, the third daughter-in-law smiled and said: "My third son has been very good in the past six months and has done a lot of things."
"That's right." A woman echoed, "Don't tell me, a man is called a man only when he is a father."
"Yeah!" The third daughter-in-law pursed her lips when she heard this, and said with a wry smile: "I was eight months pregnant with my eldest son, and my third son was out fighting with others. He came back with a bruised nose and a swollen face, and he couldn't even open his eyes.
Already."
"Who is he with?" A woman was curious and asked hurriedly.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I don't know!" the third daughter-in-law said, "I didn't even say anything even if I asked, that guy made me angry."
"All men are so stupid!" A woman in her forties waved her hands and said, "So is the loser in my family. I was pregnant with my second son... That was six months ago, right?
CTM, Mr. B is not supporting anything outside, but he started fighting with others, and the same B who was beaten by others came back. I asked him who he was fighting with, and asked my children's uncle and second uncle to come back and do it
, why didn’t he say anything? CTM! This makes me angry!”
"Haha..." The old woman's words put smiles on the faces of everyone around her, but she didn't even laugh out loud.
And the person who laughed out loud is not yet at the stove.
Everyone looked around and saw a young man wearing a marmot hat, a Chinese tunic suit, and military hook shoes. He walked over with a smile and said, "We have a man named Jiang Ming in Xitun."
"Hmm?" Hearing what Li Ruhai said, Zhang Yuanmin was stunned. He knew Jiang Ming, and Zhao Jun also knew him. Their relationship was quite good.
At this time, Li Ruhai continued: "Her wife was also pregnant that year. He had someone beat her, and his wife didn't even recognize him."
"Ah?" Li Ruhai cleverly used exaggerated rhetoric, which made the women suddenly curious. The third daughter-in-law even asked: "What should we do?"
"But it's quite miserable." Li Ruhai shook his head gently and said, "After I get home, I feel so out of breath."
"Oh my god! What are you doing?" A woman looked frightened.
Li Ruhai raised his eyebrows, stared, moved his chin forward, and said, "His wife quit at that time."
"Then who can do it?" A woman shouted, "I won't do it even if you leave me alone!"
"No!" Li Ruhai said: "That guy, his wife is making a fuss, relatives and so on are here. No matter who it is, they have to fight!"
Hearing this, everyone focused their attention on Li Ruhai, waiting for his next words.
Li Ruhai lowered his head, raised his right hand, and said mysteriously: "Later, his wife found out, but she didn't dare to go find him, so guess what?"
"Why are you shouting?" As soon as Li Ruhai finished speaking, a woman asked: "Which family has swords, guns and cannons? Or is it Master Tun?"
Someone next to him asked: "Did the village chief or a relative of the village chief's family beat him?"
"No." Li Ruhai shook his head, then clapped his hands and said, "He really wanted to tease someone else's wife and let her beat her up!"
Li Ruhai's revelation was quite big, but after he finished speaking, the supply and marketing cooperative was completely silent.
Zhang Yuanmin's expression changed drastically. Just when he was about to step forward and pull Li Ruhai away, he heard Li Ruhai say: "His wife is pregnant and he can't get to the table, so he uses other people's wives to quench his thirst."
As soon as Li Ruhai finished speaking, the door of the supply and marketing cooperative was pulled open from the outside. When the man lifted the curtain of the cotton door, he shouted: "Is my wife here?"
