The bear meat was cut into pieces. Lu Lu kept some and distributed the rest to the people present. The rest was going to be sent to Xiushan Tun for everyone to share.
As for the four bear paws, Lu Lu didn't want to experience the feeling of trembling all over after taking one bite, and the pores on his body felt like oil was coming out of his waist.
When life gets better, there is no shortage of food and oil, but too much oil and water makes me feel tired.
Tian Youcheng's restaurant in Ou Shang bought this thing and the price was pretty good. Zhou Cuifen injured her foot. Today, Wang Yan and Pu Guiying sent mushrooms to Ou Shang to sell. Lu Lu planned to ask Chen Xiuyu to follow them and deliver the bear paws.
Anyway, the three of them are good sisters, so they can talk and laugh.
The most troublesome thing was the bear skin. It was a dull knife to shovel the oily skin. Even with the help of Zhao Yongke, it took a lot of effort to shovel it. After cleaning, it was framed and sent to the warehouse to dry.
After the work was finished and the food was almost done, Chen Xiuyu and Lu Lu invited a group of people to eat.
The meal was divided into two tables, and a group of old men gathered around the Kang table to eat, while the women used the floor table, eating lively.
Everyone already knew what happened this morning. During the meal, everyone praised Chen Xiuyu a lot.
Lu Lu had to say: "You should stop boasting. If you praise Xiuyu again, your tail will be raised. She was lucky enough to tie up a bear. Today's incident is purely due to Xiuyu's good luck. It is also a narrow escape."
.
If you really encounter another blind bear, get close and try to see whether she is tickling the blind bear or the blind bear is tickling her... that will be fatal."
He didn't want Chen Xiuyu to be praised so much that her self-confidence would be inflated and she would do something daring.
This daughter-in-law of the family had the idea of learning how to shoot and hunt. It was Lu Lu who had a hard time suppressing this tendency, and she could not let it rekindle.
After thinking for a while, Lu Lu told several women: "Don't go into the mountains during this period. The crops are about to mature, and the wild animals in the mountains will come out of the mountains and forests after smelling the fragrance of the grains, and gather around the villages."
There are a lot of wild animals in the fields and they are not safe. We have to go into the mountains and wait until the autumn hunting is over to hunt and chase them away before going.
Look at today, there are blind bears in places like Three Stones so close to the villages. You must be careful, this matter is not a joke."
After saying that, he looked back at the elders and said, "When you go back, tell your family or the people around you. Don't let anything happen just because you are thinking about those mushrooms."
When everyone heard what Lu Lu said, they all nodded.
Wild animals are busy saving a lot of fat in the autumn to survive the long winter, and they are all crazy about eating more. For many wild animals, the food grown near these villages is an excellent thing.
At this time of year, it is the time when you are most likely to encounter wild animals in the nearby mountains. From time to time, you have begun to hear reports of people entering the mountains and being injured by wild animals.
After finishing the meal, Bai Gou Sheng and others continued to complete the fence and then started building the cellar.
Chen Xiuyu and three other young people went to the district to sell things.
Zhou Cuifen and Zhao Meiling went home respectively.
Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke sent the remaining bear meat to Xiushan Village, which had been divided into two or three kilograms of meat. As soon as the news was released in the village, it was all divided quickly.
After he sent some bear leg meat that he had specially left to the homes of Wang Demin, Zhang Shaofeng, Aunt Duan, Jiang Zewei and several close militia brothers, he called Zhao Yongke and rode straight to the Xiangshui Creek Forest Farm.
We walked all the way through the dense red pine forest, crossed the small train track, and got on the spacious road used by the forest farm to transport wood. We rode forward and in less than half an hour, we arrived at Lengchang of Xiangshui Creek Forest Farm.
Even though Lu Lu had seen a lot of piles of wood in his previous life, he still felt shocked when he saw them again.
During winter logging, sledges are used in the forest to pull the wood down the mountain and pile it in this wide area.
Under the bright sun, the scent of pine oil emitted by pine trees spread everywhere. In the distance, there were workers loading lumber into trucks. There were also people carrying umbrellas, holding notebooks and rulers, counting and measuring while taking notes.
The two of them walked directly towards the row of brick buildings next to Lengchang and found the director's office, but found that the door was closed and they didn't know where the person had gone.
Lu Lu could only turn around and walk towards the man who was taking notes.
Hearing the noise, the man looked back and immediately shouted: "Brother Lu..."
Lu Lu took a closer look and saw that this person was Jiang Minghao, Jiang Zewei's son.
He immediately laughed: "How come you, a man who works as a check ruler, are still covering yourself with an umbrella? You are like a woman. If you don't come closer, you don't even know."
Jiang Minghao smiled: "It's hot!"
In the Lengchang, there is no shelter. When the sun shines, the heat rises, but it is not as cool as in the forest.
Both Jiang Minghao and his wife worked in the forest farm, and at the request of the forest farm and the convenience of work, they moved to Xiangshuixi Forest Farm Village, which is composed of forest farm employees. The village is located in the mountain col on the left side of Lengchang.
Although most of them are forestry workers, they are still engaged in farming and breeding, and their lives are similar to those in places like Xiushantun. The biggest advantage is that their income is more stable.
Lu Lu escorted Jiang Zewei to Zhang Guangcai Ridge this time. Not only did he bring Jiang Zewei back safely, but he also made so much money. When Jiang Minghao saw Lu Lu, he was quite friendly.
Even if Lu Lu directly made fun of him, he didn't mind at all.
"I've been thinking about when I would invite you to my house for dinner, and now you're here. Let's choose a different date... Let's take a walk, come with me to my house, and let us entertain you well tonight!"
As Jiang Minghao said, he stepped forward and pulled Lu Lu by the shoulders to walk home.
Lu Lu smiled and said: "You are taking us home, are you going to do any more work?"
"No matter how big the deal is, it's not important to invite you to my home. Besides, it's just a small amount of work, and I didn't say it must be done today."
Jiang Minghao used force on his hands, as if he was afraid that Lu Lu would run away.
"Okay, okay, come over some other time when you have time and don't bother us again. We just came out from home after having a full meal. We came here today because we have something to do. Let's talk to your director about something."
Lu Lu looked back at the row of houses and asked, "Where is the director of your forest farm?"
"Is it wood for building a house?"
Jiang Minghao looked at Zhao Yongke who was following Lu Lu, smiled at him and nodded as a greeting: "About this matter, the district forestry bureau has already called me, and the director of the field has also told me that this man wants to
For the wood, just come here and pull it out."
He glanced around and saw that no one was around, so he lowered his voice and continued: "I will help keep an eye on it and pick out the wood for you... By the way, who are you going to ask to pull the wood?"
"Meng Zhaohua from Huilongtun!"
Meng Zhaohua was also the driver of Xiangshui Creek Forestry Farm. They were already familiar with each other. He was also very smart and quick and honest in his work. He was the first person Lu Lu thought of.
The Forestry Bureau called... You don't need to think about it to know that Zhang Shaofeng has already helped to say hello.
"That boy is very good... Don't worry, I won't let you suffer." Jiang Minghao blinked at Lu Lu.
With him helping to keep an eye on it, Lu Lu was naturally relieved.
No matter how unsociable Zhao Yongke was, he still sensed Jiang Minghao's kindness. He smiled at Jiang Minghao: "Thank you, Brother Hao!"
"I don't like what you are saying. We are all our own people..." Jiang Minghao was Linglong.
When Jiang Zewei was traveling, he would run home every once in a while. Until he saw Jiang Zewei come back safely, the old man praised Lu Lu and the others quite a bit. He took it to heart and was sincerely grateful.
"Okay, since there's no problem, we'll come over and pull out the wood while we're working on the foundation... I still have some things to do in the meadow, so I won't delay your work and let's go!"
After Lu Lu finished speaking, he called Zhao Yongke, got on their horses, turned their horses' heads, and walked back.
"Brother, walk slowly, be sure to come and sit at home when you have time!" Jiang Minghao greeted after him.
"It will come!" Lu Lu waved at him: "Hurry up and do your work!"
As he spoke, he put his legs under the horse's belly, left Lengchang, and returned along the road.
Once things are done, Zhao Yongke's house problem will be solved, and they can just make arrangements on their own.
Bringing people out from the mountains to settle down is not something that can be done by just throwing them aside. The friendship that needs to be done must be done.
Once the house is built and there is land to plant next year, we will be able to settle down.
The two of them drove all the way to Xiushan Tun. When they arrived at the red pine forest that branched off to Xiushan Tun, they met Chen Xiuqing who was driving back with a cart full of dry firewood.
It turned out that he had gone to the mountains to make plows. No wonder there was no one at home.
However, when he saw Chen Xiuqing carrying a semi-automatic on his shoulder and holding two jumping cats in his hands, Lu Lu was very suspicious whether this guy was going to hunt or hunt.
"Brother Lu, Brother Zhao, what are you doing?"
Seeing the two people chasing after them, Chen Xiuqing asked with a smile.
"Go to the forest farm and help Brother Zhao get some wood for building a house!"
Regarding this matter, Lu Lu told Chen Xiuqing that Wang Dalong and the others should be busy with Zhao Yongke's affairs first. Chen Xiuqing at least had an old house to live in, and Zhao Yongke was just two small fairy pillars. Things had to be prioritized. As for the wood, that's it.
Zhao Yongke's situation is special and he can do this. It is not easy for others to approve it, and Zhang Shaofeng's favor cannot be squandered casually.
Besides, it’s not affordable to buy a mountain of wood.
Lu Lu glanced at the prey he was carrying and found that they were all shot with semi-automatics, and they were all hit on the head. Lu Lu couldn't help but laugh: "Qingzi, you can do it, your marksmanship is getting better and better!"
Chen Xiuqing has been training in private for a long time and has made great progress. He smiled and scratched his head and asked: "Is the matter done?"
"Brother Feng helped, things went very smoothly... Qingzi, I would like to ask you to come to my place to help me and teach me how to plow the land. I have to clear a piece of land so that I can plant crops next year."
I went to Zhang Guangcai Ridge and saw that the few of them got together every day and had already become familiar with each other. Zhao Yongke, Qing Zi and Liang Kangbo were not as estranged from each other as they were with others, and they spoke straightforwardly.
"Okay, Brother Zhao, there's nothing to do these two days, I'll come over tomorrow!" Chen Xiuqing was also very happy.
"Qingzi, Brother Zhao, I'll leave this matter to you... I have something to do at Caodianzi, so I'll go back first! Brother Zhao, take your time!"
Lu Lu was still thinking about his ginseng seedlings.
At this time, the fence surrounding the ginseng field should be finished, and we have to go back and plant it quickly.
Seeing that they still had something to say, he ignored them and rode Zhui Feng to take the first step.
When I returned to Caodianzi, I saw that Bai Gou Sheng and others were already busy working on the cellar. A deep circular pit of six to seven square meters was dug in the ground. It was built with bricks around it and a vault was left, leaving enough space for one person to get in.
The circular entrance is just a matter of backfilling and covering it with soil.
According to their progress, it will be completed tomorrow.
In the past two days, Zuo Songling has not been here. He is helping Lu Lu at home to use walnut and catalpa wood to build the furniture he needs.
He took a look at the situation inside the cellar. It looked very good, like a big jar buried deep in the ground.
After greeting several people with satisfaction, he went back to the house, took out a packet of buns, picked up a hoe and walked towards the linden forest behind the house.
There were more than a dozen ginseng seedlings left in his hand. Lu Lu dug up the soil and put them in one by one. He stretched the roots, slightly adjusted the root shape, and then buried them.
What he pursues is the vintage and the quality of wild sticks. As time goes by, wait and let them grow naturally there, which in itself is an improvement in quality and value.
He didn't want to engage in artificial planting management. In the next few years, a large number of artificially cultivated sticks were put on the market in the Northeast, and their prices almost plummeted to the level of cabbage. In order to save the losses of ginseng farmers, it also dragged down a lot of people.
Enterprises from all over the Northeast.
It’s more interesting to raise them in a new year! He is not in a hurry to make money with these ginseng seedlings.
He is now capable of carrying a stick deep into the mountains.
