Far up the Hanshan Mountain, the stone path is sloping, and there are people living where the white clouds grow.

Stop and sit in the maple forest at night, the leaves are as red as the flowers in February due to frost.

…

The time has quietly arrived in February, and this mountain forest is dominated by pine forests. A maple tree with fiery red leaves just grows unexpectedly in the mountain nest, which indeed means a little bit of red among the green.

Lin Haoran saw that it was almost noon, so he stopped chopping wood and walked towards higher ground.

This pine forest is very open and has a good view. There are clearly defined paths extending to the top of the mountain. The fine white sand on this path has been washed out by water and is very comfortable to walk on.

A golden pheasant hiding in the grass on the side of the road suddenly jumped up from beside him, and its colorful figure flew towards the mountain nest, landing just on the maple tree. When he was approaching the top of the hill, he still

I saw a little fox with fur as red as fire, eating pine cones on the tree, and its black eyes were as clear as gems. This seemed to be a paradise for small animals.

After a while, he finally came to a bare hilltop. The view here was wide, surrounded by vast trees and fields, as if he was in a green ocean.

This mountain top is actually a dividing point, because further ahead is the Lion Ridge area where tigers and wolves often appear, and even experienced hunters are unwilling to set foot there.

Naturally, Lin Haoran would not take such a risk. He just set a bird trap in the open space on the top of the mountain, but he was disappointed because the bird trap was intact.

Sizzling...

Suddenly, a piercing cry came from below, which caught his attention. When he walked down the small steep slope, he saw clearly what was going on in the woods. Three men in fursuits hunted a large wild boar.

Mountain people?

Lin Haoran looked at their clothes and immediately determined the identity of the other party.

The so-called mountain people are actually the population of black households. Some are criminals and criminals, while others cannot bear the taxes. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "tyranny is stronger than the tiger", and the Ming Dynasty was no exception. Taxes forced families to be destroyed.

There are not a few.

The three of them, headed by the sturdy young man, glanced at Lin Haoran warily. They probably saw that his thin arms and tender flesh were not a threat, so they ignored him and turned to order the two young men to make a rack to carry the prey.

Lin Haoran stepped forward and looked at the huge, hairy beast on the ground. This wild boar weighed at least four hundred pounds, and he couldn't help but admire them. If he had such skills, I probably wouldn't need to worry about eating and drinking.

"Go away!" The leader of the big man looked at Lin Haoran reaching out to shake the wild boar's big tusks and said with a serious face.

Lin Haoran looked at the other person's eyes with hostility and held a hunting knife in his hand. He immediately put away his curiosity and showed him a kind smile, then stepped to leave, but suddenly stopped and faced the other person's dissatisfied gaze.

, pointed at the wild boar and asked: "I'm going back to get money. Can you sell me some fat meat?"

"What's the use of those copper odors? Let's go!" The big man sneered, and then waved at him vigorously, as if to ward off flies.

Lin Haoran's feet seemed to have taken root. She looked at him seriously and asked, "Then what do you want?" He knew that everyone had needs, even if he was a billionaire.

"Salt!" The big man looked at the seriousness of his question. He hesitated for a moment and then gave a decisive answer. Then he pointed at the wild boar on the ground and said, "Give me a pound of salt, and I can give you this wild boar!"

Although they can hunt enough prey to fill their stomachs, they lack basic living necessities. Especially salt. Recently, some of them have died due to long-term lack of salt.

This salt can not only meet physiological needs, but can also be used to treat wounds to avoid infection. It is undoubtedly a holy medicine for hunters like them and can reduce their mortality.

The two young men had already tied the limbs of the wild boar with vines, and they could lift the wild boar away by just passing a thick piece of wood through it. However, they stopped in unison and couldn't help but look at Lin Haoran.

"I can exchange it for you! But I have to take the wild boar away first!" Lin Haoran looked at him and then made a condition.

Now he only has more than ten pennies, and a pound of salt costs one or two cents, which he cannot satisfy. Even if he has enough money, if he goes to the town to buy the salt back, the sun will probably go down soon.

This wild boar is difficult to deal with.

snort!

The big man snorted coldly and waved his hand for the two young men to take the prey away: "I have learned the tricks of you Han people a long time ago!" It wasn't that he didn't believe Lin Haoran, but he had suffered the same loss.

Lin Haoran could tell that this big man was not playing hard to get. He had been in this world for nearly half a month and had already experienced the straightforwardness of people in this era. He liked to speak his mind when doing things, and he was far less stubborn.

But the other party's conditions could not be met in any case. His family had been without salt for a few days, so how could he get them a pound of salt? However, he realized that this was a way to make a fortune, which might satisfy him.

The wish to buy shoes.

Seeing this deal fall through!

Lin Haoran gritted his teeth and said to him: "Two kilograms! As long as you hand over this wild boar to me first, I will give you two kilograms of salt tomorrow. I guarantee it with my personality!"

The big man stopped, his face a little uncertain, and then looked at him suspiciously and said: "Do you know, even if you transport this pig to the town now, you will probably have to kill it, and I'm afraid it won't be sold for two dollars.

two!"

Obviously, this big man still knows the market very well.

Lin Haoran met his gaze with a proud smile on his face and said: "The mountain man has his own clever plan! Since I dare to pay this price, I naturally have my plan. But you, do you have the courage to take a gamble on me?

Take the risk!”

Profit and inducement, this is a kind of business method!

Why many bosses can run away with hundreds of millions of funds is precisely because many people are greedy for high interest rates and are willing to risk lending out money. Now Lin Haoran has directly doubled the amount.

I have to say that this move made the big man a little overwhelmed.

He could carry a pound of salt without hesitation, but that was two pounds of salt! Thinking about the weight of two pounds of salt, he felt a little unable to move his legs, and he began to seriously weigh the gains and losses.

Although Lin Haoran's face was calm, he was extremely nervous in his heart. After all, this was a very important transaction.

"Are you from Changlin Village?" The big man hesitated for a moment, then finally narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Exactly, Lin Haoran at the west end of the village!" Lin Haoran cupped his hands, feeling slightly relieved.

"If you dare to blackmail me, this will be your fate!" The big man waved his hand and a small tree fell suddenly.

Lin Haoran was not overjoyed, but felt sorry for that innocent little tree.

This warning is a warning, why should we destroy trees? What effect can you have if you chop down trees in front of a woodcutter? If you want to chop, just chop off your hands. This will be bloody and deterrent. I might even applaud you.

Woolen cloth!

"You hunted a wild boar?"

When A Niu heard that Lin Haoran asked him to help move the wild boar, he was surprised and disbelieving.

When Lin Haoran led them to the grove, everyone on the ground was secretly surprised, but looking at the wild boar's wounds, his eyes became even more suspicious. However, at Lin Haoran's urging, A Niu and two companions helped him

The wild boar picked it up.

Jiang Mansion, with lanterns and colorful decorations in front of the door.

Butler Zhao greeted the waves of visitors, and the smile on his face almost froze. Just as he was about to return to the house, he saw someone coming from the left, and his eyes immediately brightened.

The person who came was not silk and satin, but a rag of homespun cloth, but his smile came from the bottom of his heart, and his eyes fell on the big wild boar. This was undoubtedly a timely rain.

However, he was not so happy soon, and the two parties had huge differences on the price!

"I'll give you two taels at most!"

"Two taels is not enough for my uncle's soup and medicine, it must be six taels!"

"Just two taels, if you like it, sell it or not!"

"Aniu, let's go to the village to sell them!"

"Ha! Then let's see who has the ability to buy your whole pig and how much it can sell if you dismantle it!"

…

The big wild boar was transported away, but in the blink of an eye, Butler Zhao seemed to be a different person. He bowed his head and invited Lin Haoran into the Jiangfu kitchen, and hurriedly called on the cook to kill the pig quickly.

"You've earned four taels. I'm a pig that can cut more than three hundred kilograms of meat. I'll get at least six taels when I get to town!" Lin Haoran was very good at telling lies with his eyes open. When he handed over the silver taels, he looked like you've earned it.

appearance.

Butler Zhao couldn't help but take another look at him, and found that this young man had taken advantage of him and was able to get him off the stairs. He was indeed a good person, so his attitude became kind and said: "If you have any game in the future, just bring it to Jiang Mansion, Jiang Mansion will not

I’m shortchanging you on the price!”

"Easy to say!" Lin Haoran tossed the silver coins and listened to the sound of the silver coins colliding, which felt particularly pleasant.

If it weren't for Mrs. Jiang's birthday, and if he hadn't identified those guests as potential customers for the big wild boar, the wild boar might have been sold to Jiang Mansion at a low price.
